Considering how the developers essentially made a sequel to Vermander's Curse, I would like it if they made another game based on the Midnight Maids' adventures. As explained from their dialogue, it seems they have done a lot of odd jobs- one involving something like almost being buried alive. Now *that* is something I'd like to know.
That sounds like a great idea. They should do that
They should make a book series off their games because midnight maids and the vermanders curse could be a 2 parter book in a way. Or this could be a connected universe and become a book series.😮
Totally agree
Every single Zed_Technician Game are connected into a world. Recently when Zed_Technician release a sequel that was popular and made him started developing more games that being "The Man in the Window" he created a sequel "The Man in the Window 2" and in that game if you get the secret star in the sequel there will be a chance that you will meet JP Vermander in "TMITW2". I'm not gonna say how your gonna do it but you can search in KZhead but anyways all of Zed_Technician games are connected to one universe and this universe is filled with creatures, ghost, monsters, demons and humans. The world of Zed_Technician games is pure weird and fantasies.
There Is another One, It Is called joe's curse
This game dev is going places. I can’t wait to see what else they’ll be making next
I heard the games are free, I really hope they start charging (like maybe $5) for their games so they can get what they deserve
Yea my basement😈
Bro makes his games in roblox 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@RralRonaldo you say that like it’s an insult. Have you not seen the quality and money those games can have?
probably the Vermander hearse a game where you must drive to Mr. Vermanders funeral but ghosts try and make you crash
J.P and Joe are different characters and Joe is either J.P's brother or dad. Joe has red hair and didn't know the estate was sold off and J.P had brown hair, lived, and had to sell off the estate to pay off debts.
I was wondering about that! Glad someone else pointed out the differences between J.P. and Joesph, insinuating that they're different people
J.P vermander probably moved to joseph vermander's house because he heard his brother died???
I don’t feel like Joseph is J.P from The Vermander curse. Two reasons: One, J.P got help and didn’t die at the hands of the demon. Two, even if he did die, Joseph’s hair is red. J.P, on the other hand, has brown hair.
yeah, I think Joseph is possibly J.P's older brother.
My idea is siblings, or the J.P from The Vermander curse is a junior.
@@DustinC23 i think he is from but her back then that, but why do you think they are brothers?
You're right. Joe is not J.P. J.P sold off the estate and had brown hair and Joe died and is a red head. Maybe they were brothers or father and son.
Joseph is most likely the father of J.P, who inherited the mansion after the murder of joe at the hands of Jeremiah
I love how these games are starting to connect to one another Its really fleshing out the world they're set in and makes me wonder what comes next in the story Plus these character designs and stories are so unique they're quickly becoming some of my favorites
Funny how a few of the female characters are also SUPER thicc. -Dog Waitress 🐕 -Goat Cook 🐐 -Harpy Maid 🦢 -Giant Ant Maid 🐜
@@mariocooper1996 don’t forget Bunny Mom
@@Lil_Ducky43 apparently there’s also an Anteater, Axolotl & some farmer chick.
@@mariocooper1996 Honestly I do like that! Seeing characters with diverse body types is always nice and seeing fat characters in horror games that aren't used in a "Ew look a gross fat monster lol" way just makes me happy as someone who could be considered heavier than average It's just nice seeing large characters not used as some kind of gross monster and instead showed as real people (like the sweet old sheep cook from one game reminded me so much of my grandma it made me happy)
Shadow woman
I think Ruth is actually supposed to be a cockroach. She mentions being nocturnal and most ants don't sleep but for a few minutes at a time, and the mouth part isn't anatomically accurate for most ant species. I speculate this might also be the reason why their previous job was cancelled, but that's just guessing on my part since the game doesn't dwell on it long. I could be wrong, though. Edit: Whoops, Ruth didn't say she was nocturnal. Naomi did. My bad. But I think my theory has weight.
I think you’re right. Cockroaches don’t like light and prefer dark spaces. “They (roaches) will always scatter and move towards dark corners when you turn on the light” - quote from pest control.
Also R for Ruth and Roach
She also has those wings on her back. Only male ants have wings and she is a female character.
@@warehouselead Actually Queen ants can have wings but do lose them after mating
you’re right she doesn’t even look like an ant but like a cockroach but it’s not a big deal if he mistook it
Yeah Joseph and JP are definitely not the same person, the end of The Vermander Curse specifically stated that after the mansion was sold, Jp moved into the hospital to make ends meet, not once mentioning anywhere that he died
I agree, he seems more like JP's brother (possibly younger). There is also the drastic difference in their choice of style, both clothes and hair.
I figured you'd do a story video on this. I enjoy how this game is kind of tying these stories together into some lore. I hope the creator continues on this route as he seems to be making a pretty interesting world and setting :3
Yeah
ugly ass emoticon
Yeah, also mike got some lore wrong. Jp and Joseph are obviously not then same person
Yeah but the chracters design😅
Big thick woman
What amazes me the most is how the creator of this series comes up with the new characters. It really ads to worldbuilding
I adore these explained videos- most times I’m either too busy or two scared to play some games. But knowing I can have this on and learn about the game story is so cool
But he gets things wrong, watch his playthrough and you will see what i mean
He got stuff wrong in this video. Ruth isn't an ant and Joe and J.P are not the same person. They have different hair color, different hats, Joe has haunted the place for years and hadn't known the estate was sold off until the maids told him, J.P survived and is the one who sold the house. J.P is either the son, brother or cousin of Joe and the last Vermander,
I don’t think J.P. Vermander and Joseph vermander are the same person. They have different facial hair, slightly different hair colours, and different hats. They also have a different name. And all the vermanders we’ve met have names beginning with J, so I don’t think an initial of J is enough to go on.
But he's a ghost, so he's supposed to look a little different.
I love the kind of Mike Flanagan type of horror this dev goes for. If you don't know, Mike Flanagan is a movie director whos main like philosophy for horror movies is that there can be no horror without there also being hope.
The dev of this game is definitely gonna have a name for themself. I love how they have an almost fairytale-esque world with the mix of animals and people. I also love how there’s themes of privilege and poverty in all the games. The little details in their games are so unique and and the game itself is so stylized
Am I the only one who needs to tell SHB that Ruth is a cockroach, not an ant? (She has wings on her back and the weird spikes on her arms) Other than that and Joseph Vermander seeming a bit too different to be J.P. Vermander, it was a good video. I'm completely fascinated with Zed Technician's world building with various human/antro animal/monster characters just trying to get by with their mundane lives as supernatural things happen to them.
thank you lol i’ve been thinking this!!!
Yeah. SHB videos are entertaining but he misses very obvious details in a lot of his videos like the differences between J.P and joseph. It’s probably because he’s busy trying to grind videos out every
You're not alone who want to correct that fact
@@chickentendies5144 i’m sure he definitely has his plate full, and i agree that J.P and joseph aren’t the same
I'm surprised how much conversation is happening under my comment days later.
That good ending was actually pretty wholesome
This dev does have pretty great good endings and they seem to be the Canon ones
Something weird about the timeline is that in the first game JP had to sell the properties to payback debts but in this game he’s unaware of the mansion (a property they owned) having been sold
Because(i see this as obvious) Joseph isn't jp, he's a ancestor of jp. Their stories don't line up, their looks don't line up, the fact that Joseph has been haunting the manor for a while but jp didn't die in the last game, also as you said jp sold the astate and Joseph didn't know it had been sold.
That's not J.P. He survived the last game and Joe is either a brother or his dad.
@@rachelsheppard9122 yeah I think Joseph is JP's father while Jeremiah is his grandfather. There's too many inconsistencies for JP to be Joseph and this Dev has been good about avoiding that kind of stuff so far.
Uh i think its pretty obvious that Joseph is a ancestor to jp, as jp sold the astate so he would know they lost it...joseph didn't at first, also he says he's been haunting the place for a while. Oh and the looks, he has red hair and jp has brown. Also why call him Joseph and not jp if the same person. I wonder if the developer has clarified this for people who somehow think that Joseph is jp.
When dealing with otherworldly spirits during menial labor to make ends meet is just another Tuesday.
I wonder what inspires the creator to make these character designs.
anime?
Fetishis
Possibly both
(≖_≖) I wonder…
@@that1754 But i'm ok with those thicc things
One thing I find interesting is that so far the antagonists of the series have either been too ambiguous to be evil (the Man behind the window), doing bad things as part of a job (the shadowcatcher), merely following the will of another (The demon J.P. summons) or are eventually redeemed (J.P. Vermander himself). Jeremiah is thus far the ONLY antagonist to be unambiguously evil, being a murderer of several people (at the LEAST less than a dozen, perhaps more) as well as an abusive parent. he's alsothe only antagonist who doesn't jsut leave (the man behind the window) or redeem himself (J.P Vermander and the shadowcather and arguably the demon). He instead is sent to hell. I dunno what my pint was, just an observation.
Ruth is a Roach by the way! Hence her dialogue: “I don’t do daylight..” I love the video by the way! Very well explained! ♥️☺️✨
are all of Zed Technician´s games set in the same universe? if so these human, animals and hybrid beings sure have alot of demons and creepy shit around them
It seems they are and set in the same town. The appointment that cancelled had to be Sam from Beware the Shadow Catcher and the estate was owned by J.P Vermander from The Vermander Curse. Maybe The Man in the Window takes place in the same town as the other games do.
@@rachelsheppard9122 again if they share a universe and more narrow the same town yikes thats alot of demons
Ant? I thought Ruth was a cockroach...She even has wings
I love this series. The world building, character designs, story, and game play seem to be really good. I hope they make more sequels to the first. It really fleshes out the world better. Also i agree that joey here is definitely not jp. He didnt know about the mansion being sold. Theres a lot of other hints too. He’s most likely jp’s father that haunted the place. His grandfather killed his father, which resulted in jp inheriting everything.

Thank you
thank you that is very helpful
That's why I'm here.
Can really appreciate this game dev making a whole lot of his cast plus sized women of varying ages. When I first started seeing these games, I was worried they were going to get weird with it, but I'm glad they're being written as just straight up heroines.
Interesting viewpoint to hear
It would be ok representation if it wasn’t literally the same body type for each female character, the men get varied models for their bodies but the woman get slight unnoticeable changes. I dont think this guy is doing it for “representation”
I think J.P might be the cousin of Joseph since it is likely Jeremiah had at least one sibling or maybe even more. I mean they both have the last name vermander and some of these old money families had a lot of relatives, however perhaps we might meet some of these relatives in later games but have probably either changed their surname or have taken the surname of the family they have married into.
I don't really think that J.P and Joseph are the same person. Like, Joseph was always trying to be a good person and JP was not. Also, it seems that in the family people has names that start with J. Also, JP sold the state, why would he be like "so we finally lost it" if he knew that he sold it. finally, JP probably stans for Jean-Pierre, Jean-Paul.
My fav game from Zed Technician is a ties between this and the vermanders curse since I genuinely can't decide which one is better
Same here, both of the stories are relatively interesting, and the mechanics, although a little tedious in Midnight Maid Night, both of them are still fun and a good time-killer.
10:58 He actually didn't turn on Jeremiah, until his boss showed NO appreciate for him DYING to carry out his orders, let alone finally completing his task even after DYING and thus no longer obligated.
To be fair, the text for him jumping at the maids says he was gunning for vengeance; I think offering the paper was him offering Jeremiah just one last chance to be anything remotely resembling a decent human being
I’m glad you did a story video for this I was curious what would happen if you got caught by Jeremiah but I didn’t realize that this was timed. Knowing that Cornelius and Agatha aren’t actually trying to hurt the maids is pretty interesting too. Looking forward to the next one as always
i'm glad the creators are keeping similar story line for the over all story and character design
Zed should bring more about the Vermander family and it's mysterious members, that family sure is responsible for a ton of weird creatures out there in this universe
I have a theory that Joseph and JP are not the same person. 4 reasons; Joseph seems to be younger than JP. They have different dress styles and mannerisms. Their noses are different. And we don’t see the office where JP sits in the first game *anywhere* in this house. (I know the first two are circumstantial). I think it’s more likely that JP is either an uncle or a cousin of Joseph who lived somewhere else. What do you think?
Isn't a theory, is really obvious that they aren't the same person.
I think it's funny that Cornelious still had the newspaper he died trying to return and even offers it to Jeremiah 😂
If that isn’t dedication, I don’t know what is
I love how the Devs are creating a universe surrounding their games
So I don't think Joseph Vermander is J.P. Vermander. The personality and hair color are all wrong. Let's just assume for a moment, from the Vermander Curse, is actually the late father Jeremiah. This would fit along with his personality, how J.P. died in that game, and the hair color of both characters. Seeing as how Joseph makes several mentions to how greedy, crual and uncaring his father, Jeremiah, was it fits with J.P. and how greedy and cruel he is. I think up until his fathers death, and how it's mentioned later how Joseph tried to run away, it's safer to assume Jeremiah trapped his son in that mansion, unable to leave, even in death. Just my opinion on the subject of course ^^
The amount of detail and story telling these devs can make, it's impressive
I love these stories. Mostly because they all happen to regular working class people struggling to make ends meet, having to deal with whatever happens in the games. I like the designs a lot too, they're a far cry from the regular "slightly unshaved 30yo white dude" thing most popular horror games have doing on
great explanation video as always! altho i'm 100% certain Joseph and JP are two different characters, given the differences in appearances and personalities, though they are related to one another. if i had to guess, Joseph could possibly be JP's uncle, since Joe doesn't state whether or not he found someone after Agatha when he was still alive
This is the level of story I can only wish to achieve in any game that I want to make.
This stranger believes in you!
@@andrewdiaz3529 Thanks! I appreciate it.
People have also pointed out that Naomi could also be a Kikimora.
What’s that?
SuperHorrorBro never disappoints ❤️
...he disappointed me by getting some lore wrong. I don't understand how he thought jp and Joseph are the same person. Like there are so many things saying otherwise
You forgot about the about Cornelius's line at the good ending, But it still good
Honestly Zed Technician is on the ball this year with creating interesting games!
I know someone already said this but Ruth isnt an ant, she's a cockroach!
No matter how many gameplays I see, I keep thinking that Ruth is a cockroach instead of an ant, all because she has long black wings and hairy legs/arms. Still, great story and video as always. Your gameplays always makes me wonder an expect the next story explain video.
i love story explained and i thought naomi was a human but she got them chicken legs
I believe she’s a Harpy. Besides the bird like arms & feet, you can sometimes see hair on her arms & back which is obviously her feathers.
I love this devs style. I’ve grown quite fond of everything they make
Ok I love the way he explains these stories and back round but I just have one little tid but I think j.p vermander and Joseph were 2 different people cause I some sentences he dose emphasize that j.p and Joseph are the same person
Yep like how jp sold the astate and Joseph had to be told it was sold
I was wondering what the ship of Theseus had to do with the game, thanks for clearing that up Mike :)
It was Agatha all along😂
I was waiting for this! Thanks as always superhorrorbro!!
I was waiting for this to pop up!!!
Your play through was so great it was a matter of time till the story explained!! Love your content!
I just have to say that you have PHENOMENAL script writing
Best quote: Cornelius swoops in to save the day
love your vid mike as always!
My theory is that JP Vermander is actually a branch in the Vermander family, instead of being a direct ancestor or descendant of Jeremiah and Joseph. Reasons for this is that JP's history and events don't line up with them. Remember that JP turned good at the good ending of the Vermander's curse, so it would make no sense for Jeremiah would be evil if he descended from a person who improved himself after realizing his errors and losing his mansion, while Jeremiah had one when he was alive. He couldn't be a descendant as well, as Jeremiah's son; Joseph died before he could've children. Which meant that JP wouldn't exist. So that could possibly mean that JP is likely a distant relative of Jeremiah; as they both share the family name, but their events differ.
I mean there's no proof that Joseph didn't have children but I still don't think that JP is directly related to him.
2:45 I personally don't think Joseph is JP; JP's whole golden ending is that he lived to be a better person ad a normal person. I think Joseph might be JP's father or something simply because otherwise the good ending to the Vermander curse kinda gets overridden and so far this dev has been pretty good about not doing things like that, also JP has a full and different beard while Joseph only has the triangle as well as having red hair and locks while JP had brown and short hair. And it doesn't make sense for JP not to know that everything was being sold since he sold it all to give to the hospital. Joseph seems to be a ghost like the others, just not malevolent due to his conflict with his father's spirit
The effort this man put in his videos its incredible. You're Amazing
I joined 5 mintues And I love your channel! Like the cooking companions and others!
So you're saying that Jeremiah was basically like Stalin
i love these
Awesome Story Explained video!
Hello i finally watched the video in the first hour (superhorrorbro is the best channel )
SO AWESOME
It has that oldschool JRPG flare, where the weird is treated as normal.
This is not the last time we see the Midnight Maids. Trust me
I certainly hope not. Despite the game being relatively short, I found myself growing attached to Ruth and Naomi. Their dynamic is really fun to see play out, with the cynical and tired Naomi constantly trying to stop the more optimistic and upbeat Ruth from getting them killed. Plus I wanna see what other ghosts they’ve helped get rid of. Seems to be a side hustle of theirs.
Me when I heard emotional damage: EMOTIONAL DAMGE
I love the video mike it’s awesome
Theory: Joseph’s farther was jp vermander and the maid from the last game was also killed by jp then moved on, Joseph was changing the history
Nope, jp sold the astate and didn't die. Timeline doesn't add up
No. The girl from the last game was Hanna and she was human and J.P had to sell the estate. He's the former owner the maids were talking about.
Can't wait to watch this video
Image trying to clean a house and you just hear, *”what’s up guys, it’s super horror bro Mike here-“*
nice video!
YES FINALLY. THANK YOU MIKE.
That was fast i wanst expecting this for another while
Thank you so much
I believe that J.P. is a separate person than Joseph whose one of his relatives.
jus gotta say this again. shes a roach not an ant ! XP
Hey @SuperHorrorBro I recommend you play “Super Mario 85 PC Port!” It’s basically like Sonic.EXE but with Mario. BTW I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! IT ALWAYS ENTERTAINS ME⭐️
I HAVE BEEN WAITING ON THIS THEORY BECAUSE OF I DON'T KNOW WHERE THE VERMANDER HERE FITS WITH MR.VIRMANDER IN THE VERMANDER CURSE EDIT: Didn't think that the son was JP
I believe he isn't, the stories don't add up... Especially since jp sold the astate and Joseph had no idea it had been sold. Oh and jp didn't die
I love your story explain videos keep doing them
I love how the games slowly r tieing together
There are four games with weird characters that look like monsters -The man in the window -Three strings attach -Vermander's cursed - Midnight Maid
I love the horror games you post
yes it is still the same ship if you replace the parts. You didn't build a new ship just because you repair it.
I think they will be focusing on the origins of the man from the door, how he is summoned, how the book gets there?
I don't think JP and Joseph are the same person. First off they have different facial hair, second JP is very specifically alive at the end of the Vermander curse and this game takes place very recently after the good end of the Vermander Curse where JP loses the estate. I think Joseph is JP's dad.
While "Bizarre Horror Fairytale" is an apt descriptor for many of Zed Technican's games, I would comment that Joseph is likely also dead and an ancestor to J.P. Vermander.
This is a really cool sequel. Also it's nice to see how well Joseph continued to change for the better even in the afterlife. The good ending is really nice.
Pretty sure Joseph and JP are different people, like Joseph is JP's father or similar due to the inconsistencies between the two; JP intentionally selling off everything to clear his debts and give the rest away while Joseph didn't know the manor was sold, different haircuts and hair color, beards, and body types
Joseph and JP Vermander aren't the same person, Mike just got confused.
I like the Idea of the Ghost attacking on a mistake then apologies before leaving 😂
i love these games so much i hope they make more
He's been putting out a steady stream, thinking about the time between this and the last one we might see another before the end of the year or maybe mid January
