Hydrophobia - web mistery

[Keava]

Well its not about solving the function since you can tinput a graph really First function eventually resembles into the second which is the basis of neo-malthusian theory around which, supposedly, the games mystery plot is based around.

The save the world. Kill yourself. Part of the Youtube video is referring to how exponential population growth will lead to a drain of resources, industrialisation of the land and ultimately the world becoming baren, so to save it we have to kill ourselves.

I like this mystery.

I like this mystery.

Except that, in the game (if my hypothesis proves correct), the Malthusians will try to kill everyone on this boat.
And, the heroine will, if to believe that other article, will have to "fight her own demons".
So, perhaps, in the end, she succumbs to it?
EDIT: And kills herself, I mean.

She might, but I believe its the Malthusians who hold the belief that killing everyone is the only solution to save the world so maybe they will try to kill the people on the boat whilst the heroine will not want to die so she will try to survive.

They will definitely try to kill everyone.
See the first picture

Spoiler: EDIT! Found some more!

M for Malthusians?

Hm, that engine isn't very good, is it?

I think you're right about the Malthusians. It can't be that simple, however, otherwise people would know what the games plot is. Maybe she used to be a Malthusian but realised it's bull and left but, while she was there, she overheard a plan to kill everyone. Maybe they found where she was and decided to target her boat first, because she knows too much.

Ok unfortunately for me i DO study at this level. But this game has made me curious, i'll take a look at my maths notes later. By the way, i doubt it's looking for an actual number. Probably just a simplification of the current formula i.e. "t = ?a + ?b"

Anyone consider the two numbers on the door? 25.4t and 2.800lbs.

EDIT: Why do i even bother when the internet can clearly solve every problem known to mankind!

It's apparently been in development for a while now.
You have to admit, the new screens look amazing.

She realized they were you?
Perhaps, but not the part about overhearing the plan, because
1. She wouldn't have gotten aboard the boat
2. She would have alerted someone
3. Seeing what I've read from the plot, the attack comes as a surprise

EDIT: And I have to say, this MAVi thing interests me...

She doesn't know about where the attack's gonna be.

Also, the character models look rubbish.

From what I read she has hydrophobia which in greek literally means "to be afraid of the water". So in a game where you are on a boat which is sinking and full of water, I guess it might explain many things...

Well, I cracked it. Type the following into the bar

g(t) = b X 1.02t
