man I tried to play .flow with WINE on GNU/linux using the files linked on the site but it crashed as soon as I tried to play the family game.
I wonder if it will work well inside a virtualbox VM or something? Please tell me what exact setup will let me play .flow?

Help with the Handgun effect
The last effect I need is the Handgun, so I've read walkthroughs and watched videos how to get it, and they all lead here. In the videos, the dumpster is right next to the door, yet in my game it isn't. Is this a random event, or do I have an old/new version .flow? Last time I checked I had version 0.19.

http://dotflow.wikidot.com/forum/t-1171372/significance-of-the-numbers-on-the-apartment-walls
But I mean, no one has posted any thoughts as of yet. I think these numbers have some sort of significance to Sabi and things that have happened to her. Now, with the wall glitch event with the number 97920, I saw a theory on youtube that maybe it's a date. Rearranged, it's: September 20th, 1997
But what about the other numbers? 3792 and 4231?
Now, if I wanted to force a theory into what these numbers could mean, concerning the events that happen in the alley where the cones are:
3792 could be a code. We also see this number split apart as well (37 and 92). We see what looks to be a pregnant woman burning something (3 of them). We see the chainsaw maid. We also see someone running and a kaibutsu killing someone.
So again, if I'm to force a theory:
Sabi finds out after being pulled into that building and being chased, finally being held against her will by gun-point and raped, that her own mother might've been tortured by three of the men, making one of them in her mind her father. The 3 red women represent a dark Sabi's mother burning the memory from her and making it so Sabi would never know.
A shaken, scared Sabi is defenseless and bloody outside the room in the alley and the chainsaw maid finds her. (whether or not you believe the chainsaw maid is good, I think it's safe to say that she might still be a possible care-giver)
A kaibutsu following Sabi (perhaps the one who was at the sugar bar) chased one of the men and killed another. That could be 2 deaths there.
So 3 could be the 3 men that in Sabi's mind, might have been her father. 7 men actually raped her. 9 gave chase after she ran (and so she could've hit one in order to run). That bar kaibutsu killed 2 of the men.
Then maybe 4231 is a number representing the place, and maybe the other number is the date of her not only discovering her origins, but the night she was raped and possibly roped into prostitution? If 4231 is the location: 4 (city district) 23 (block number) 1 (building number)
4231 is always written in black, directly related to the men.
3792 is always in orange, directly related to things that happened to Sabisuki.
Meh, now, on another hand, I am just forcing theories to fit at this point because I have NO idea how to fit in these numbers. I was thinking that maybe it's a code, but it doesn't really work either. Is it a number of steps to a place in which something tragic happened? I doubt we can say these two sets of numbers are also dates. Is it a code in which like, 4231, if you take the other number and rearrange each number to fit this pattern, it means something? Rather complex, to be honest. I also don't think it's a price for anything either.
Also.. I should mention, in this pic, I can't remember, but doesn't Sabi encounter the viscera event here as well (after going going up to the puking face)? And if so, could it be that whatever caused her to have that traumatic vision in her mind, wouldn't it be somehow linked to these numbers shown around her? That orange blob with the smiley, I couldn't help but think it looks more like an erect penis…
Anyways, what are all of your thoughts? I really am curious about this!
Number Themes
Hey! So I am new here to uboachan. I have loved .Flow for a while now, and one of the things that really gets me is that I don't see a lot of theories concerning the numbers on the walls in the apartments. I posted something on the wikidot page:http://dotflow.wikidot.com/forum/t-1171372/significance-of-the-numbers-on-the-apartment-walls
But I mean, no one has posted any thoughts as of yet. I think these numbers have some sort of significance to Sabi and things that have happened to her. Now, with the wall glitch event with the number 97920, I saw a theory on youtube that maybe it's a date. Rearranged, it's: September 20th, 1997

Naming un-named characters
I think it's kinda sad when characters don't have names, so, let's name them! I think the Machine Girl should be named "Kinzoku-tan". Kinzoku is, according to many Google results, the Japanese word for Metal. (By the way, if you are naming a character, please try to attach a picture of them so that we know who it is)

The love hotel in the psychedelic city, and the city is controlled by the yakuza.
First in the hotel there´s a room with three female bodies (probably murdered and raped) to access that room you must kill the little black guy guarding the entrace.
The black guy, with those laughts, are mob members.
Why yakuza? In Japan most of the motels (prostitution biz) in certain areas of Tokyo are run by the Yakuza and considering the game creator is japanese. Seems more tan obvious…

As for the Sabitsuki Ending, what happens on the roof is up to interpretation. I know a popular theory is it's one of those 'you know what to expect' implications and she commits suicide like Madotsuki, complete with the similar blood smear to clue the player in further. As for the Rust 2 ending, nothing is left to interpretation except where the Gas Mask Maid takes Sabitsuki. The Rust Ending 1 is thought to be simply a preview of Rust Ending 2, but is it? Personally, I think that Rust 2 is only achieved after Sabitsuki kills off the last bit of her humanity (she brutalizes a clone of herself, even!) and takes on the full Rust identity. The Rust 1 ending, however, is when her disease has become advanced but hasn't taken over her mind. Instead of severing her legs and all that, the Gas Mask Maid simply takes her to the hospital and she is passed out in the credits screen. Gas Mask Maids seem benevolent in comparison to the sesspool that is Sabitsuki's dream world. Something enjoyable like snacks and beverages is a big contrast from the grim that makes up most of the world. The Gas Mask Maid only takes her out in the Rust Ending 2 because she's violent and too far gone to cooperate with being helped. Just look at the Gas Mask Maids. They seem more like modern plague doctors than monsters. On the subject of Sabitsuki getting her legs cut off, by the way, I think that amputation is, for some strange reason, part of treating the disease and slowing its progression. There is enough severed limb and prosthetic replacement imagery in the game to back up the significance of amputation.

On the one hand, the Kaibutsu seem more willing to kill. Several of them will brutally slaughter the protagonist (can't remember the name) such as in the Corrupted School event. The Toriningen on the other hand will never actually harm Madotsuki (either out of care for Madotsuki or some other motive).
On the other hand, the Toriningen are far more physically imposing, towering over most other NPCs. In addition, they cannot be killed. Ever. At all. Whereas (I think, I haven't played .flow yet so don't kill me) you can kill Kaibutsu, no matter how many times you stab the Toriningen, they will not die.
Anyway, thoughts?
Toriningen versus Kaibutsu-Who Would Win The Fight?
Now, I haven't played .flow yet (although I do plan to) but one thing that occurred to me is that both Yume Nikki and .flow have roughly analogous "guardian" monsters that patrol the worlds and will, if provoked, attack you. In Yume Nikki's case, we have the Toriningen. In the case of .flow, the Kaibutsu. Both are pretty horrific, but the question is, who out of the two would win in a dreamscape fight?On the one hand, the Kaibutsu seem more willing to kill. Several of them will brutally slaughter the protagonist (can't remember the name) such as in the Corrupted School event. The Toriningen on the other hand will never actually harm Madotsuki (either out of care for Madotsuki or some other motive).

This might be a stupid idea for a thread, but oh well.
I don't think it's too outlandish to say that in terms of the graphics in flow, we're left kind of in the dark for much of the specifics about what things look like. Most objects are only rough representations of what they're supposed to be, and it all leaves us a bit detached from things. So I like to speculate about these specifics. To get really detailed about what things are, and go even beyond the visuals; what things are, what they feel like, the noise they produce, all sorts of things that I guess are… kinda silly, but fun to think about nonetheless, I think. :P Makes the game more immersive when I think of it that way. Sort of like the theory thread, except nothing about plot; just the pure, basic existence of things as they are.
Case in point are these three representations of Sabi I drew. Now I know not everyone can do stuff like that, but this is kinda sorta what I mean. While Sabi isn't much to note on her own, I view her transformation to Rust as being a bit less subtle than turning into a full fledged Red Demon, it's more of a parasite that isolates itself in her brain; Each time a demon gets her, she gets a headache that gradually worsens with each one from some kind of pressure building in her head. At first, subtle signs of blood occur, such as a nosebleed, then some running from her mouth, then some trickling out of her ears. The mass inside her head gradually dissolves her entire skull, but only her skull, causing her head, and nothing more, to bleed and rot from all sides, with a (literally) head splitting migraine, to boot. (The last time I played as Rust, I noticed that around the last couple of demons the back of her head actually seems to start hanging off her skull, like her entire scalp is rotting off!)
Oh my god writing this makes me feel like such a morbid weirdo right now

Every 1d hours, the victim must pass a HT test or cough up blood (Taking 1Damage). After this happens for the first time, The Rust is now being carried on the victim’s breath, as well as his blood. People who get within one hex of him (or his blood) must make an HT-3 Test or be infected, covering mouth and nose with a thick cloth gives a +2 bonus, and wearing a gas mask negates the test entirely. Touching the victim makes a HT-4 Test, and touching his blood makes a HT-5 test. Wearing protective gloves negates the test entirely. Even people with Immunity to Disease can be infected with Rust (though they get a +2 to tests to avoid being infected).
After one week, the victim’s hair turns white. At this point The Rust has traveled through his bloodstream and reached his brain, giving him horribly gory nightmares where the victim’s worst memories are used to wear away at his mind. Whenever the victim sleeps, he must pass a Will Test or gain 1 Fatigue upon waking up.

Hey there /flow/, I couldn't decide if this should go in /og/ or not, but since it's about .flow, and directed at .flow gamers only, I put it here.
Has anyone played "The Room"? Its a Japanese-developed game, supposedly a really, really far off-shoot of Silence of the hills. It has SO MANY similarities to flow, it makes me suspicious.
You're main weapon is a STEEL PIPE. You also later get a HANDGUN. The plot of the game is that YOU CAN'T LEAVE YOUR APARTMENT because YOU CANT OPEN THE DOOR. Your first observation about your now fucked-up room is that its "COVERED IN BLOOD AND RUST" You travel through revolving worlds, and can't tell dream from reality. Even your TV stops working.
Sorry to go on a rant, but I just starting playing this, and my head started screaming! So, what do you guys think?

Alright, guys. I think I figured out what happened in the end. While you're rust, you walk down the corridor, demons attack you. Both the elevator and the corridor obviously represent time going by, as the disease was getting worse. I'm sure by now we all know this. But, here's the catch. When you get to your most injured stage, you can see little horns poking out of her head, and teeth coming out of her face. Like a kaibutsu. The female kaibutsu, in fact. So my theory is, Sabitsuki's condition got worse and worse over time and wanted to pull a madotsuki over the railing, but the maid(nurse?) stopped her for a reason. This reason is? Well, Sabi does try to attack the maid, so you can tell she was already out of her mind. And also, the maid cut off her legs. Her legs. Think of the machine effect. What if, perhaps, whenever a rust patient starts to go kaibutsu, the maids install whatever the machine effect is? What if the Kaibutsu were just poor victims of the rust disease, but became terminally ill before the machine method was invented? What if whoever invented the machine effect…was Oreko?
Also I promote the idea that the first patient to ever receive the treatment was that monochrome girl, but Sabi had seen her and her house on a black and white newspaper?

Hello Uboachan (/ﾟДﾟ)/While I was playing .flow 0.17 in Rust mode I entered the new area, the Sweet Sugar.
I found out something interesting.
I think it's a new Rust event. Or something like that.
So I recorded everything!
Here you are～
I think I'll do other .flow videos here. This is the same channel where I'll upload Forget me not: Palette gameplays.
I hope you all will like this, enjoy (＾▽＾)

Thought I'd share this
I mapped the game to think of some theories. It's only a map of what connects to what, like a simple Dark Souls map, but thought it was useful enough to share it.

Generic Yume nikki fangame question time.
What program are people using to look inside .flow and check out the game for object and event placement? I'm guessing this is just a version of RPG maker but am not quite sure.
General discussion of methods used to comb directory files is also appreciated

Rust: Infection begins by taking hold in the patient's central nervous system after contact with another infected individual. As the disease progresses, various changes take place in the individual's psyche: tendencies toward aggressive behavior, loss of, memory, and more vivid dreams. The dreams may also be associated with a heightened sense of subconscious caused by increased blood.flow to the site of infection.
Vivid hallucinations may also occur, causing the fight-or-flight reaction in the individual when seemingly unprovoked; patients tend to fight, rather than flee.
After the latent period in the brain of the host, this period varying from one patient to another, Rust will migrate through lymph and blood vessels throughout the body and create cysts in various parts of the body. The cysts resemble minute bruises, but do not sport any color differentiation from the adjacent skin.
When the patient is provoked, the cysts burst outward due to a sudden increase in bloodflow. Skin directly above the cysts are especially susceptable, causing more visible haemorrhaging in the facial region.
It is worth noting that when provoked, all patients become incredibly tolerant of pain, incredibly hostile, and incredibly dangerous; patients display complete awareness of their actions and have the ability to speak, but display an almost sadistic sense of pleasure when doing harm to others.
Prolonged stimulation in this way can cause permanent harm to the individual, creating scars and loss of facial features. Most patients can recover from minor rage, but some are unable to completely calm down— in these cases, the individuals display near inhuman strength and bleed profusely, causing a complete removal of skin from the facial region after some time and ultimately death.

Reading walkthroughs and having spoken to a couple of friends who've completed the game, I wanted to confirm I came across a random event.
In the hospital halls where you find the black hood effect, there is normally a bloody arrow in there pointing to the door. I don't know if that toggles on and off randomly but I didn't get that like everyone else did.
Secondly, the doctor in one of the first rooms past reception did something different for me. Normally I heard, and as it's been for me since, when you kill him with the steel pipe his glasses fall on the floor and he disappears as all other characters do. You go out and come back in and his glasses are on the desk.
Well, for me, when I hit him with the pipe, he turned into a ghost, which is to say there was an indication of something translucent with glasses hunched over on itself where I'd killed him that I couldn't hit again, couldn't interact with and couldn't walk through. I went out and came back in and it was still there.
I didn't take a screenshot as I didn't realize it might be a random event. I play v 0.10. Anyone else had this?

When looking through the music folder of 0.15, I've found two tracks which were completely unknown to me: the first is pon1.wav, which is a creepy version of the neon world music. And there is lainbow2.wav, which is based on the rave maze theme, and is just downright scary to me for some reason.
Has someone encountered these tracks during the game?

Oh the picture is a screenshot I took me hitting the unkillable kid. So as I said the kid has white hair but there is another white haired kid which is killable and have barely bit different face. The unkillable kid is around the far right end of the hall.
The unkillable?
Hello everyone. So since last night (what else time would be the best to play?) I have been playing .flow for the first time. It's a really amazing game and I love it, but that's not why I am here. So I have been kinda tried out almost every single little thing in the game and I read through the wiki as well and all but I did not seemed to be able to found a kinda little interesting thing I discovered mentioned anywhere. So in the corrupted alleyway hospital in the hall where you can find the room with the Little Sabitsuki in bed there is one unusual white haired kid. That kid is actually unkillable, no matter how many times I hit it with the pipe it just never dies. On the other hand everyone else is killable, if I hit them they drop dead on the floor(which I find weird too since everywhere else if you kill a kid it will just disappear into nothing after hit as all every NPC normally). So I am not sure has this been discovered or not, I could not find it anywhere mentioned. So if it is known is anything known about it? I find it rather strange…Oh the picture is a screenshot I took me hitting the unkillable kid. So as I said the kid has white hair but there is another white haired kid which is killable and have barely bit different face. The unkillable kid is around the far right end of the hall.
