Meta Dialogue Pixel hunting spots!

[Wunut]

Haven't seen anyone else talk about it, but has anyone found any secret dialogue spots?
Basically scattered in every game, sometimes multiple times in a game, there will be one location or another where in some reaaaaally specific spot you'd never ever think of touching, if you touch it you'll get a cryptic message that pops up?
I've found about 4-5 so far, here's the list from memory:

WarpTank:
(You have to go to the left towards the cafe, when you warp up theres an obvious path to the left, but to the right is 2 spots you could stand on, stand on the lower and you'll see this)
-
"Have you heard of the pigman?"

Cyber Owls:
(Standing in the green (I think?) key card room, theres a shipping container on the top right of the room with a small little dead end walkway, if you walk into it you'll see something like)
-
"This is agent mac, I can help you, but first you have to fill out and sign these forms!"

(Also, somewhere in the very last area as Guin, there were a couple tubes in a dead end hallway that said something to the degree of)
-
"After this, we have to defeat Dr. Lemur!"

Waldorf's Journey
(If you ride a squid on the absolute tippy top of the screen ALLLLLL the way to the top left of the world, the second I touched the top left most spot while on the squid I got)
-
"You were born in a claw machine"

--------------------
Those are a few of the ones I found, knowing what I do of the MIAS stuff, I wonder if any of this has any implication besides the devs putting in fun lil notes on stuff. Oooooooooooooor if standing in these spots is like a "ram location" type deal, where you type in the answer or something in terminal to get some lil funny doodad.
But hey get to hunting! I am so super into this game so please if anyone finds anything new share it with me!

Found the Warptank one didn't know about the others, Barbuta also has a secret message that replaces the title in the starting room if the ghost is present "loungewear rocks". The Waldorf message seems to be pretty directly referring to the characters origin as mentioned in the games trivia. Wish I was more motivated to figure some of this stuff out but at this point im guessing most everything's been solved by other people or datamined. Stuff like this almost always requires a large community effort and if you're not "in" on it it just kindve sucks to go through in my experience.

In Velgress, if you try to buy an item out of stock 3 times, the shopkeeper says "Greg laid an egg!"

In Koala Block, there's a bush NPC at the top of screen at level 40 (you can see it disappear if you enter the level) that says "Greg me with a spoon"

So THAT'S what those are. I mentioned in the thoughts-on-the-terminal thread that someone on 4chan did some data mining and found some hidden lines of text that really flesh out the story of UFO Soft: https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/689371826/#689411874

I only found a talking wall in Pilot Quest that I assumed was giving you lip about all the secret north-faced walls in the final pyramid dungeon post-boss room, saying, "If walls could talk...they'd keep their damn mouths shut!" The wall sprite itself is also different from the normal tiles, having an orblike red eye(?) on it compared to the normal tile.

I tried doing some things to see if I could get him to move (having idol in inventory, being on 2nd loop, hitting it a bunch, waiting a buttload of time though I left before I died from it, looking for other talking walls, etc) to no avail.

Wasn't aware this was a thing or if this particular one is even one of them.

That link I posted mentions each game having a 'game_meta_message' variable that's presumably affected by finding secret metaplot-related messages. I wonder what they effect. The menu? The garden? Miasma Tower?

Woah that's super awesome, yeah I wish someone would make a mega thread somewhere of all of these, I do genuinely wonder if the messages unlock options in miasma tower, with the paper try on Esters side desk referring to the garden features, and with so many items sorta stating "You make a mental note to look at this later" I really feel like these lil hidden messages effect Miasma Tower.

Ha awesome, I really bet this has something to do with the meta story, maybe even straight up referring to a conversation between characters, If I had to guess, probably Spinzer

I tried replicating the Waldorf one and I've been all over the top left corner, rode a fish a few times, but nothing.

This might be the Rock On! Island one? There's a hidden path to the far east island with 4 mammoths, and one says "People can be smol-minded, sometimes," probably referring to the "Smolski" developer.

I have no clue how certain games like Magic Garden, Paint Chase, or Attactics can have a hidden message anywhere.

In magic garden, try not doing anything for a while and it'll pop up, at least the one I know of, but good find on Rock on Island!
