Today’s video of the day was created by Kyle Allen Music, for the horror game My Friendly Neighborhood. It’s all about the desperation of the characters of a children’s show melting away when their spark is rediscovered by a new visitor. Unfortunately the puppets from the show have all gone quite mad.

Something is amiss with everyone’s favorite Saturday morning puppet show! For years, the colorful cast of The Friendly Neighborhood delighted audiences across the globe with their cooky capers and educational adventures. However, as time went on and interest waned, the production studio found themselves out of money and closed their doors for good. Toy sales would dwindle, and birthday balloons and cakes would find new mascots. In time, the once household names would fade into increasingly niche fandoms. Until one night years later, the studio unexpectedly clicks back to life and starts broadcasting The Friendly Neighborhood. TV sets across the globe flicker for a moment before the familiar puppets return for a surprise encore! But this isn’t your typical family-friendly holiday special… are those puppets eating each other!?

Thinking the antenna on top of the main building has started broadcasting old episodes, the city sends Handyman Gordon to straighten things out. It doesn’t take Gordon long to find that the typically friendly neighborhood has become a lot less welcoming. Stepping into his work boots, the player has to fend off ferocious friends, solve a plethora of playtime puzzles turned perilous, and hopefully uncover the dastardly truth at the heart of this terrifying tale.

The game can be obtained on Steam here.
