Cloud Formation in Hug Scene (Spoiler)
So that scene where you accept Sayori's confession and hug her in the image...

Here

There's that odd looking cloud formation to the right, where there are two circles with a line going through it, and perhaps a couple of hands at the right side of the line that are holding or manipulating it...

Sure, it's just a cloud, but this game is so particular with the details that I have a hard time buying that it is just coincidentally poorly drawn.


Any thoughts?

Huh. Never paid attention to the clouds before.

Well, it kinda looks like a gun firing, which may be symbolic of what's to come...That's my best guess, though. Could very well just be random clouds drawn.

Im pretty sure the clouds have some meaning. I cant imagine how they end up looking that way if they were just randomly created.
But I have no idea how to interpret it. Yep, it looks like a gun firing, but that would be kind of cheap :F
Maybe its some hint towards "being half way done breaking the fourth wall"? God, I have no idea ^^
But well observed btw, didnt notice that one ;)

Yeah, maybe! Just a really odd detail in a game full of odd details that may or may not mean anything.

Maybe the other outdoor scenes have clouds that are different? Shows you gotta look at everything!

Yep, I love that aspect! :)

When I get some time, I'll have to look at all of the pics for little Easter Eggs or foreshadowing clues.

I can see the gun. My original thought was that there was a hand pulling or manipulating a string, or that the two circles formed something like a top, spinning or balancing, and there was a finger coming down from the top right hand side of it, about to tap it and mess it up.

Of course, it COULD be nothing. Or a red herring, just to see if the tin foil hat brigade would jump on it. :)

Clearly, it's Ridley in the clouds.

Man I can't with this scene.. i just bawl my eyes out.
The clouds look cool though

Well, since the cloud formation resembles a thin cylindrical object penetrating a series of hoops, maybe it's a subtle allusion to main character's pen in act II, when Yuri... uh...
k, I'll show myself out.

Penetration was also my first thought. Freud would have a field day with us.
I had a look and a part of the clouds really look like one of the collar from the school uniform that sayori wear ... to me it's look like her head exploded like in some of the old cartoons.

AlterEgo, what program are you using to display that system info at the top-left?

Oh, this isn't my image. It's a link to someone else's image that's under the screenshots section here.

Actually I could see that. If the head is on the left, and the line forms like the spine, then the head is ♥♥♥♥♥♥ severely to the left like the neck is snapped.
