Let's find the real dad.

[grogfella]

It's clear that Shower With Your Dad Simulator 2015 (or SWYDS2015) still has a lot of secrets to share. Let's crack them together.

There are two big smoking guns when it comes to solving this game's mysteries. One is the cheat code option, and I don't believe anyone has yet found any codes that work. The other is the "find your real dad" achievement, which basically no-one has aquired yet.

Working with the cheat code / password screen, I've attempted every relevant six-letter word I can think of ("FATHER" and "SHOWER" yield no results, for example), so the secret codes could literally be anything - including combinations of those dad heads in the side fields. Also, while attempting The Dad With The Iron Shower while using the walk-through-walls trick, I elicited a unique response from the Ninja Dad: "I can read your every thought." It may just be my own association, but these lines are very similar to the ones spoken by Psycho Mantis in Metal Gear Solid. However, phrases like "MANTIS", "PSYCHO", or even "KOJIMA" and "HIDEOK" yielded no results.

Now, working from the "find your real dad" achievement as the baseline, we can see that there is a mismatch in the dads and the sons right off the bat: While the other two dad-and-son pairs have matching features, Johnnie and Robin bear no immediate resemblance to eachother, Johnnie having light skin and orange hair, while Robin has blonde hair (and apparently a blonde mustache) and peach skin. This is our first clue that Johnnie is not Robin's real father.
Moreover, by playing Endurodad for a long enough time as Robin, I found a father who matches Robin's physical features. However, the game would not let me interact with him, even though I am certain he is Robin's real father: Touching him gave me no penalty. A screenshot of this can be seen here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=518820263

If any of you have any ideas how to solve this mystery, please let me know.

In "endurodad" mode the 4th type of dad never triggers maybe it's a bug. I made it in "Dadathlon" and it just triggers like wrong dad Nothing happends else But it's really nice catch Robin isn't Johnnie's son Maybe we must know somehow the name of this "blonde" guy and enter it in code bar in menu.
Robin... Maybe his father is batman ♥♥♥♥♥ dunno)

[grogfella]

Good idea. Sadly, "BATMAN" doesn't yield any response either.

Also if you play a lot in dadathlons mode Some black doors appear on the wall but you can't get inside
Oh and once the window appeared on the wall and there was the dark silhouette of father inside. But when you get close to the window nothing happends too.

[grogfella]

Those doors could be related to the clue the developer put out in the coded news update: If we need to look beyond the walls, then surely those doors must be related. Good catch, though screenshots would be great too.

[lootra]

Nah I guess "Look beyond the wall" hint message was about ninja dad achievement
You can hide in the walls in his room.
I think we should wait for some new hint messages from the dev about two hours of shower achievement and this one.

Looks like the dad in the window has a ponytail. Is there a matching dad that shows up in the other game modes?

"KEEP LOOKING Spaces Beyond the Walls"
This one has appeared in Dadathlons randomly like the window on the other picture But you can't get inside I tried with every kid
In Dadathlons sometimes happends random stuff: Like Lights are not so bright, the walls have another skin etc Maybe we just haven't seen what we need yet

On the matter of changing wall skins:
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=519461334 it happened at least once that the wall had a Pyramid pattern
Sadly i could not interact with it

[lootra]

Yes I've met this skin Nothing changes I've checked all the walls No secret door or something These wall skins, windows, holes appear very rarely So don't play at all Just die and restart level again Your result doesn't matter Something will happen after 30-10000 tries :)

Anyone know if you can interact with thor at the end of the ninja motorcycle segment? Seems you can't get close enough.

Edit: I've also tried a variety of twinbeard related codes, TWNBRD, BUGPRN, RIBBIT

no luck yet.

"Thomas" & "Magnum" is a Tom Selleck who played detective Thomas Magnum in TV series. Look at his picture he's very similar to game version
"Richard" & "Lefty" - could be Richard Pryor he was left=handed
Maybe we must realize who's look like "Robin" and his native dad and type it in a code bar in menu

[Timegoat]

Okay with that interesting idea, I inputted "Batman" "Batdad" and "Alfred" (because of the BALDLY code) but to no avail. That's the only Robin I know.

Oh I'm an idiot, I missed this.
