![]() ![]() When the wave passes, he's not there anymore. Three of them run out of the way, but one stands rooted to the spot, watching. In the flashback, we see four extras watching, essentially, a tsunami of thinner overtake the area they're in. In another cutscene, Gus has a flashback to the thinner spill that started the whole plot off in the first place.The terror factor is lessened somewhat by the fact that the final tool is a toilet plunger, but even then, Doctor Who fans familiar with the Nightmare fuel they have to deal with themselves may argue that being plungered to death is a legitimate concern. He then nearly has his heart ripped out of his body. Mickey, strapped to the Mad Doctor's table, is threatened by a robot with a creepy eye, wielding giant scissors, a drill, and a chainsaw, all of which stand mere inches from his face. The cutscene right after the opening sequence is arguably even worse.The opening sequence has Mickey Mouse essentially being dragged to a hellish dystopia by an Eldritch Abomination.This concept art of Oswald mixed with the Blot, back when he was going to be the main villain.Thinner Mickey 's concept art had him with fangs and claws similar to Julius Mickey from Runaway Brain, and the ink bubbling and melting off of him to reveal the lineart below. Concept Art of Mickey's powers had him firing ink and thinner from his hands rather than a brush, evoking a Lovecraftian Superpower-vibe.The developers originally planned to put the song "It's a Small World" in it, only played backwards.As far as official art goes, there's later artwork ◊ from the cover of Game Informer, and, for an even scarier version of the Phantom Blot, there's the one that wouldn't look out of place in an ◊ Iron Maiden album cover.

The initial concept art implied a more steampunk-style Disney game.Of course, fan artists took the concept and ran with it, with very predictable ◊ and definitely unsettling results as well. For example, there's a cyborg-like ◊ Eldritch Abomination of a mash-up between Disney characters. Some of the early Concept Art had this effect as well, even more so when coupled with the rumored released soundtrack which sounds like a twisted and mind screwing version of the soundtracks Walt used in his older movies.Going by Nightmare Fuel, the fact he's doing this on purpose makes this title, although only potentially, as scary as a Silent Hill game, especially considering the fact that this is the guy who brought us the legendary and terrifying System Shock series.
