• Hey everyone happy Christmas Eve we're aware of what's happened with the source code so to keep this simple absolutely don't post it on the site or use it to make mods with (it's not particularly preferable toward this end anyway) and tread lightly in general until we see how this settles, thanks to all and have a great holiday season -DT

The Goddess of the Island. There is a statue of her on the way to the battle with Misery, The Doctor, and The Core.

The voices were narration to the player.

And why couldn't it also be a voice talking to Quote?

Because that would be breaking the fourth wall most likely.

Well, it was talking to Quote, and through Quote to the player. Therefore not directly to the player.

Well actually it's in the opposite direction from the Throne Room once you've gotten to the Balcony...

Prove it. Prove that he wasn't talking directly to the player. Are you saying that all text in the textbox is heard by Quote? Are you saying that treasure chests and life capsules talk?

Treasure Chest: You obtained *Gum Base*
Quote: WTF?!

I meant that it would be Pixel breaking the fourth wall within his own game. No-one breaks the fourth wall in order to tell the player some backstory.

The same point can be made about you proving the voice was only talking to the player and not Quote too.

Everything that isn't a... um... status message? Yeah, that'll do. Everything that isn't a status message is heard (or read) by Quote. Since that backstory is not a status message, it's most likely heard by Quote and therefore talking to him. Further more, it would be the dreaded fourth wall breaking only if those messages were aimed at the player himself.
Your turn. Prove that he is talking directly to the player.
