First of all, all Baldi's Basics games belong to Basically Games. This video was created for entertainment and informational purposes.
I also have to give a SPOILER warning for absolutely everything, so I recommend you play it first or watch it at your own risk.
Along with a warning of loud sounds and flashing images that may cause a risk of epilepsy.
This is my first video and project, so I'm new to these things, so if there are any mistakes, I apologize, but constructive criticism is welcome.
I won't be using Loquendo (for the most part), it will be my real voice, I'm not used to speaking in general and I have speech problems, but I hope you can at least understand what I'm talking about...
Oh! And of course, CRINGE WARNING! I'm putting it here just in case, Loquendo is very serious about this kind of thing.
Without further ado, I hope you enjoy it!
AAAH, yes
Baldi’s Basics
that educational game that looks very cheap and ugly and with questionable learning methods.
Today I'm going to talk to you about this game, from somewhat useless facts to things that will make you say
W O W
I present to you...
The ultimate Baldi's Basics iceberg.
I'M CLARIFYING, THERE ARE SPOILERS FOR ALL THE GAMES
YOU'RE WARNED.
Anyway, I recommend you try the game.
It's free on itch.io and Steam, and it's fun after all.
Without further ado, let's begin.
[LEVEL 1]
[Game Jam]
It's a contest where you're given a certain amount of time to make a game with a certain theme
but generally it's not that much time. It all starts with The Meta Game Jam 2018
where the theme is to create a game about games, that is, it can either break the fourth wall or make reference to other games
Oh! And guess who took first place
Yeah...
Farfalle
Farfalle OS?
which is… a simulator where you talk to a developer about making a game?
And then it breaks the fourth wall and stuff…
Well, Baldi’s Basics took second place.
-Mystman12-
Also known as Micah James McGonigal (The goat)
creator of Baldi's Basics and founder of Basically, Games!
who has a quirky sense of humor
(XD)
has been developing games for quite some time and it took him two hours to beat his own game.
[Baldi’s Basics Classic]
Also known as Baldi’s Basics in Education and Learning
it was first released on itchi.io on March 31, 2018.
Although there was a "demo" version on Game Jolt released on March 27 of the same year
not much has changed from the previous version.
This game had only nine characters, eleven elements, and a single subject.
Its premise was to be a game that isn't what it appears to be
inspired by old educational video games with touches of comedy and parody.
[The Impossible Question]
It is the third question that appears on You Can Think Pad
which is three advanced math problems superimposed on top of each other.
It is currently programmed to have no solution and always mark any answer incorrectly
except for the codes.
[99 Game over]
There is a 1 in 99 chance
In other words (1.01%)
that a small orange rectangle with the number “99”
cut out to look like two pair of eyes.
then loud, distorted sounds will play and the game will crash seconds later.
[Secret Chalkboard]
There's a hidden chalkboard that says "THIS PROGRAM IS CANCER" with multiple "99s" around it
This can be found in the classic version and Birthday Bash.
[Secret Endings]
There are three secret endings in total
all of which feature NULL
(or previously known as Filename2)
He is a corrupt and secret character within the game, the following endings can be unlocked with these steps
all of which have in common that they suddenly close the game
1. -Answering all the questions wrong-
this apart from making the game more difficult than it is
instead of finishing the game an image of Baldi appears suggesting a margin for improvement in his office
upon entering his office you will see a stretched Baldi and NULL
he begins with his typical monologue of destroying the game before something bad happens.
2. -In Birthday Bash-
you have to use a teleporter which can only be obtained through vending machines with a low probability
This is used to get to the Principal's office
where he'll be. It says basically the same thing, but with disappointment
Although, in the remastered version, you do the same thing
except the Baldloon is destroying the school
NULL will yell at you and scold you for what you did.
3. -In the remastered version-
it's found in Baldi's basement. The way to get it is:
-Play the demo mode-
you must first collect the seven notebooks, after this additional questions will begin to appear on the machines
when the last additional question is answered the machine gives you a portal
more specifically next to a poster about scissors
this will open a small room that leads to some stairs
Once we enter the basement we go to the shrink machine room
after a while NULL appears, who begins to insinuate that we continue playing to discover the "lore"
he mocks us, and already fed up with life he tells us the typical, and then force the game to close.
[The player's friend]
We're mentioned in the instructions
saying that our friend forgot his notebooks and we volunteered to pick them up
Not much is known, and he hasn't been mentioned again
all I can gather is that he has a terrible memory.
[Dr. Sbaitso]
Is an artificial intelligence speech synthesis program released in late 1991
for MS-DOS-based personal computers
This is the voice 1st Prize uses; the parameters for its voice are...
Eeerm...
I'd better leave a video in the description that explains it better.
[Birthday Bash]
It was released to celebrate the game's first anniversary on April 1, 2019
It's basically the same as the base game, but includes party hats, streamers, gifts, and other birthday party goodies
With an ending where you end up in the school with multiple glitches and you have to solve a puzzle that ends with it being destroyed.
[Baldi's age]
He's 29
Want to know more unnecessary facts?
His last name is Baldimore
his birthday is June 3rd, and his favorite color is green.
[Placeface]
It frequently appears as an Easter egg, it is like the bully's head but less deformed
His appearances include the Test Room, the glitched school, obstacles in NULL mode
and off-map behind some doors in the Field Trip: Camping demo.
If the hacks are activated, he'll be seen wandering around randomly
and if he sees the player, he'll chase them until they're out of sight.
[Field Trip Demo]
It's a demo for excursions that was going to be included in the kickstarted version
but it was permanently removed from itchio.io because it's a version that wasn't going to be in the final version
Here you have to collect firewood to keep the fire going, but while you're going to get the sticks
Cloudy Copter drains the campfire's life
Or the bully shows up to steal your sticks.
Once the flame is extinguished, Baldi comes to hit you with a ruler.
However, in the Plus version, specifically 0.3
there's a minigame where you have to solve the addition and subtraction problems that come with the firewood
using the indicated number that appears on the campfire
After a while, four pieces of firewood will appear
If the number is incorrect, you lose a star
This version has been removed.
It returned in 0.7 with two minigames, one called Campfire Frenzy
where you control 1st Prize to place items that keep the campfire going
and avoid items that extinguish it
It gets faster each time, though it slows down every so often, but it'll still get faster.
The other is called Pick-Quick-Nic
Baldi is...
very
H̷̨̼̬͔̦̤̣́͒̃͆͆̓̆́̂̐ ̶̡̝̻̜͉̲̹̖̻̊̉̀̉͊̎ͅU̵̘͕̰͌̂͐̑͘ ̸̡̧̝̙̿͗̽͛Ņ̵̙͔̞̰̪̎͒̇̀́͜ͅ ̵̡̨̳̠͍̙̄͐̍͋̿̕͘͘͝͝ͅG̷͚͂͗̈́̀̂̍͠ ̴̬͚͔̱͖̳͛͋̋̇̌͋͐̾̈R̴̡̦̯͍͖͔̳̘̭̦̍͒͐͋̂̋̑̔̽͝ ̶̟̣̺̮͎̺̄Y̷̨̨̗̦͖̞̠̫̯̾́͆͘̚ͅ
the idea here is to pick a food that Baldi doesn't think of
or else he'll get sad
He progresses faster and faster and the objects become more confusing
Sometimes bombs planted by the bully will appear that you have to remove quickly or else Baldi will explode when he swallows all the remaining food
If you perfectly complete these games, you will receive a ton of powerful objects.
[Secret Codes]
There are several secret codes you can set on the Can You Think Pad.
Which are:
Once you enter this code, it will display the message "THIS IS WHERE IT ALL BEGAN" and send you to the Test Room
where Placeface and green and orange textures with the text "Place the holder" are displayed
The number next to the message is a reference to the date when the game began it's development, which is March 17, 2018
“USE THESE TO STICK TO THE CEILING!”
Using this code makes everything appear upside down
using this in Birthday Bash you can find NULL as it teleports us to the low-
(struggles a lil' bit)
lower floor :D
"If Baldi's Basics really released in 1999!"
Activates Authentic Mode
I'll talk about this and other modes later; for now...
the number refers to the year Sonic's Schoolhouse was released
which is October 18, 1996.
“Time for some cool tunes!” B)
Teleports the player to the music room, as you might guess it is a room with the game’s soundtrack
here you can also slow down the music or speed it up
there are some exceptions where this does not work.
▶︎ •၊၊||၊|။|||| |
（っ＾▿＾）
(ˆ ▿ ˆ ☜ )
▶︎ •၊၊||၊|။|||| |
“EPILEPSY WARNING! HIGHLY UNSTABILITY!”
Activate Chaos mode.
“Click the question mark!”
It activates debug mode
but you have to unlock all three secret endings and also NULL mode
otherwise it won’t activate and you’ll get the message
“Find all the secrets first!”
[Baldi's Basics Classic Remastered]
Is a game that brings together recreations of the classic version
Birthday Bash and the demo of the plus version into one
with new mechanics such as the Baldicator or design changes
It was released on October 21, 2022
it was originally planned to be released on March 31, 2021
but was delayed several times due to reasons such as wanting to add more things and make it look like a finished game.
[Baldi's Basics Plus]
It is a game that is being updated regularly, being like the definitive Baldi's Basics game
it takes place in a large building called the Super Schoolhouse, it has an elevator
it will have 25 new characters in the future, including 10 returning characters
random maps, more subjects, events, field trips and more stuff
You can find it on Steam for $10. But in my case it costs 18,500 pesos... (COP)
and that's not even enough for me to exist :(
Cough cough same
[Farm Field Trip]
This is one of the game's excursions that is currently unavailable. In its first version
it featured a corn maze where you have to find a flag to complete the course
In version 0.3.2 to 0.3.8 it was a corn maze but 2D
with a barn in the corner, here we had to guide the animals according to their sound through the farm in a time limit
if we miss this limit or take the wrong animal we will lose a star and the farmer will scream.
[Unused content]
I'm going to talk about some things that were removed
other things will be talked about later because they cover more information.
This audio was removed because the randomly generated numbers would create impossible problems to solve
for example: 0 divided by 0
Before version 0.3
Baldi would say all the numbers at once and immediately start following you.
In the version 0.3, he'll count up to 10 normally.
"No eating food in the halls 🗣️"
The principal will give you detention if he sees you eating an Energy Bar
this was replaced with the dialogue of:
🗣️🔥🔥
In the version 1.3
[Mrs. Pomp's numbers 3-9]
It was originally intended that she would give you more time to go to her class.
[Dialogues to be confirmed from Johnny]
It could be used when trying to buy something you can't pay.
It could be used when purchasing an item, hovering over an item
or an unimplemented feature.
It could be used for that function without implementing a character's suspension.
[Logos]
Logos like Mystman12 and Meta Game Jam 2018 used to appear in the classic version.
Starting in version 1.4, they were removed.
There's also an MPTK logo in the Plus version
which was strangely modified in version 0.3.5.
[Numeric Sprites]
This was supposed to be used as an indicator of how many additional questions were solved
but it was moved to the math machine
It was also planned to be added as a stopwatch in the battle against NULL.
[You Can Think Pad Zoom]
When pausing the game or viewing an advanced map
a "You Can Think Pad" would appear, zooming in.
Currently, only the last frame is used with a transition effect.
[Zero power tubes]
There is an unused texture of the elevator without power tubes
because once we have lost the last tube it sends us back to the menu.
This is an image of Mystman12's avatar, used as a poster marker and temporarily as the broken window texture.
[Ventilation]
This is a structure that wasn't implemented in the full game's Early Demo.
The idea behind this was that the player was the only one who could pass through them; other NPCs couldn't
However, it was eventually added in 0.8 of the Plus version.
This screen was removed from party mode
I guess it was removed because it turned out to be too "basic".
[Why the other NPCs can't go to detention]
Well...
-Arts and Crafters-
-1st prize-
-Chalkles-
and -Gotta Sweep- (My fav char :P)
are not human (i mean is kinda obvious :P)
apart from the fact that the latter belongs to the school Staff therefore the teachers cannot be sent either
Playtime and Mrs. Pomp are jumping
Baldi is teleporting
The bully can't move at all, although they still send him for bullying.
I guess Beans is the exception and they turn a blind eye to him.
[Arts and Crafters slammed] (hehe)
In the KickStarter video, while Mystman is talking about the game
he suddenly throws Arts and Crafters into the air with his wooden ruler.
Tragic, isn't it?
[Unused footage from the KickStarter video]
Few will have noticed that there is a video uploaded about the content removed from the KickStarter on Mystman12's channel
well that's it, several scenes of him fooling around that were not used.
[The cursor]
The cursor displayed in the game is the same hand as the 1st prize.
And.. yeah that's it :/
[Inspirations and references]
I will relate several references and inspirations that are found within the games:
Its graphic style is very similar to the Baldi’s Basics games.
The Arts and Crafters squeak was created using a corrupted Donkey Kong Country 2 ROM.
The Chaos Mode code is a reference to the release date of Donkey Kong Country in the United States
In November 21, 1994.
The image of 99 comes from a corruption of Donkey Kong Country.
The bully's quote...
could be inspired by the pumpkin's line
Since this game is one of Mystman12's favorite memes he made it sound similar.
Johnny's unused voice line
It's a direct reference to Murshou when you don't have enough rupees to buy something
YES
THAT
M E M E
The same thing happens in Glitch mode with Baldloon but with random characters.
Mystman12's inspiration for the game looks even more miserable.
Wha-
What is this supposed to be?
H
H E
H E L
H E L P
The creator's username itself is inspired by this game.
-Mystman12-
The debug mode code is a reference to the US release date for macOS
On September 24, 1993
The screen transitions in the Plus and Remastered versions are based on the screen transitions in Myst.
Being a 3D game, they have the same similarity to camera movement
such as only looking to the sides without the possibility of looking up or down
and the design also makes it so that the player does not change elevation.
Some wall textures are reminiscent of the textures in Sonic's Schoolhouse.
The thank you GIF for 100,000 downloads is a direct reference
to the image of Sonic beating the level with all the answers correct.
The door textures are the same size.
The main texture of the Math Machine is inspired by the blackboard with a math problem.
Number balloons are similar to bouncing number objects.
The audio...
is rarely heard when entering the test room is a reference to an unused audio clip from the game.
Some textures and sprites are based on in-game sprites, such as ceiling lamps, or floor textures.
The title screen for Baldi’s Basics looks a lot like the boxart for Sonic’s SchoolHouse.
Baldi's voice may have been inspired by Waluigi's voice.
0th prize could have been inspired by Mario's outfit since they are similar
it is also possible that it comes from an animation error in the Mario series.
The procedurally generated levels in Baldi’s Basics are inspired by the same way the game generates levels.
Gifts work the same way they do in ToeJam & Earl, giving you a random item.
The Bsoda is a reference to the Windows Blue Screen of Death
BSoD
both as a name and a slogan.
The gravity chaos event and map in the plus version are likely inspired by the 3dMaze screen in Windows 95.
The fake error screen has a computer with the blue screen of death.
[Kirkland Signature Protein Bar]
The object... Energy Flavored Zesty Bar
is a saturated version of this bar.
[Libman Precision Angle Broom]
The previous Gotta Sweep design was a photo taken directly from this brand of broom
but the design was changed to avoid legal issues.
This item is directly inspired by this brand of oils.
The dialogue of...
from the bully, is a reference to the video "Preschool Bully"
It's possible that Playtime's appearance, more than just her hair and eyes
is inspired by PilotRedSun's art style.
The 0th prize design was meant to be a reference to PilotRedSun's style
but it didn't turn out the way I wanted, and that's why we have Gotta Sweep.
In Baldi's basement
Baldi appears with the death meme pose
this while NULL is talking
the achievement artist put this as a joke without expecting it to be used for real.
A Chalkboard reads
“Look! A Homestar Runner reference!”
A track called “Runner Star Home” that was used in the KickStarter is also a reference to the web series.
[The Amazing World of Gumball]
The Principal's whistle is a reference to Banana Joe's whistle.
🔥🔥🔥
Both media share the creation of characters in various styles, such as drawings and 3D.
Sussie was the inspiration for Arts and Crafters, when Mystman12 tried to edit an image of her in the dark from far away.
It was a big inspiration for the game. Especially in a clip that resembles an educational game
its humor is quite similar to what would become Baldi's Basics.
Several sound effects come from the Warner Bros sound library.
There would be the portal, nana' peel, all the excursion sounds
the sound of the balloons popping and the sound of the fog machine come from said library.
[Children's songs]
The Playtime song appears to be a combination of several songs made for children
such as...
"Ring a Ring o' Roses"
"A-Tisket, A-Tasket"
and "It's Raining, It's Pouring."
And the song is named after the second one I mentioned.
The song Playtime uses in Birthday Bash is loosely the Happy Birthday to You song.
The music track “99” appears to be a parody of
“Mary Had a Little Lamb”.
[The water fountain was destroyed]
And to finish the first level of the iceberg
we're going to talk about the fact that the place where they took the original photo of the water fountain has been demolished
so this model is all that remains of said fountain.
[LEVEL 2]
[Baldicator]
is an indicator that detects sounds coming from structures or NPCs
if Baldi appears smiling it means he knows where the sound is coming from and is on his way to the source of the sound that caused the player
if Baldi appears confused it means he heard another noise louder than the one made by the player
so he will not chase it. But he will go first to the source of the loudest noise and then to the source that made the player.
[Events]
Exclusive to the Plus version and its demo are random events
signaled by a ringing bell reminding the player of the limited-time event
But in the Plus version it changes to a pop-up TV with Baldi announcing the upcoming event.
The next events are:
[Broken ruler]
When this event occurs, Baldi's rule is broken, so he won't be able to hear where he's coming from for a few seconds.
While this event is happening, the player won't lose a power tube and it will cause a game over.
The way that baldi announce it is by shouting it:
A
[Flood]
It only occur on floor 2 and 3.
A flood starts due to a leak, all doors are open
The NPCs will go slower
there will be whirlpools that suck you in and teleport you to random places
Except in the mysterious room
The NPCs can also be affected by the whirlpools
Except for Chackles
If the player is crushed by Dr. Reflex's hammer
they can see underwater
The way baldi announce this is:
[Fog]
The school becomes foggy due to a malfunctioning Baldi's fog machine
limiting everyone's vision, including NPCs and the player
But even with this, Baldi will still hear our sounds
When baldi announce this it says:
[Gravity Chaos]
The school flips, and passing through figures changes the player's gravity and simultaneously reverses the controls
You can avoid the NPCs if they're facing the opposite direction
For example: if you're up and they're down
but they'll still try to get past the figures to face you
Although yes, some will try to affect you regardless of the direction you're facing
like Chalkles
Cloudy Copter
and Beans for the gum
According to Baldi's words:
The player will be notified that the Mystery Room has appeared
you have between 90 and 120 seconds to enter before it disappears
This room is dark, with colored question marks in the air
in the middle you can find a rare item like Baldi's apple
The teleporter or the grappling hook
The NPCs cannot enter the room, and time will stop while you are inside
Baldi announces this as
[Party]
The player will be notified that a party has started in the Principal's office
this event will distract some characters giving you way to escape
collect notebooks, or go for the valuable item that the party gives
Which could be an apple, a BSODA or a hook
The NPCs wander around the office
but if Baldi and Playtime see you around
they'll start chasing you
Baldi invites
[Testing Procedure]
It is introduce on floor 3
A 10 second countdown will begin, once it ends most of the blocking doors will close
preventing NPCs or the player from passing for 10 seconds
Baldi seriously says.
ATTENTION, ATTENTION EVERYONE🗣️
[The game was made in two weeks]
According to the press kit, “The original version of the game was created in two weeks for the 2018 Meta Game Jam.”
Well, the game started development on March 17, 2018, and was released on March 31, so yes.
It was two weeks.
[Modes and Challenges]
First, Let's start with the modes first and then the challenges.
[Authentic Mode]
When you activate the code the game changes its appearance as if it had come out in the 90s
it has black borders that emulate a TV screen, the quality of the game decreases significantly along with the FPS
you have to look with the arrows instead of the mouse
to run or stop running you need to click on a lever
and to use objects you have to look to the side and left click while looking at the object.
[Chaos Mode]
Once you enter the code and the game started, each character will be cloned every time you pick up a notebook
the events happen more often than usual to the point of several happening at once
this mode was created with the intention of not being possible to pass.
[Debug Mode]
Once you enter the code, a question mark will appear in a corner of the pause menu.
Clicking on it will bring up a debug menu
With this you can have abilities like:
being invisible
NoClip
super speed
and unlimited items
However, you can't earn achievements
Also you can't access to the secret endings, NULL mode and Glitch Mode, because it can't be possible to collect the notebooks.
If you try to activate this mode while in NULL Mode, you'll lose an instant.
This challenge only features Baldi and the player
Baldi will be much faster
Your goal here is to collect 25 notebooks and reach the four elevators
There are many coins scattered around the map, which will be used to pass through the doors that require coins
You can also have 3 energy bars and a BSODA.
You are at school at an odd time, this challenge consists of there being 6 Principals at school
Baldi is stuck in the office at full speed
all you have in your inventory are chalk erasers, and in the entire school you can only find that and energy bars
Once the principals see you, they won't lose track of you
and it's impossible to leave the office because there's no door or other means of transport
In this challenge, your legs are...
Broken? (-_-)
So, as a workable solution, you carry around a grappling hook with endless uses.
WHO NEEDS LEGS WHEN YOU CAN GRAB ONTO ANYTHING? 🗣️🔥🔥🔥
This is the version 1.4.3 of the classic version of the game that was adapt for mobile
It was released on December 17, 2019
It was removed from the Play Store on December 6, 2021
due to non-compliance with age rating policies
but the issue was eventually resolved and re-uploaded to the Play Store.
Well, I'll briefly summarize all of the Baldimore comics released to date.
This is Baldi asking for cookies
then says that they were his first words and he never received the cookies while exploding in anger
Baldi thinks hair is unnecessary and unnatural
so he proceeds to burn people's hair.
Baldi talks to the fourth wall that he can open a mailbox with his teeth.
This is the first recorded Baldi comic to date
Baldi introduces himself by saying he loves to eat a lot and lives in Baltimore
He then says, "The third panel is the fun one," and scratches his head.
And then there's like a fight between a tall guy and this guy
and the tall guy...
Deflates???
We can see that baldi draw this
he laughs, and says that a lot of people say his sense of humor is...
✨Sensitive✨
Here Baldi is an inventor who can invent anything
a boy asks him if he can create a nail clipper
Baldi agrees, creates something that looks more like a drill with a rusty knife stuck to it
Baldi says yes, it will surely cut your toes, and the boy runs away in terror.
This is the first appearance of Dr. Reflex
This is where he tests Baldi's reflexes
they take a while to react, and once they do, he's greeted with a kick to the groin.
This is an unfinished comic that was created on WarioWareDIY years ago
It features Baldi saying he's famous enough to not appear in comics
then for some strange reason the image goes dark, a glow surrounds Baldi, and his eyes show surprise.
This one is where Baldi thinks he's eating a chicken leg
then his wife Susan asks him if he's seen his hairbrush
and Baldi says no, then he realizes he was actually eating the hairbrush.
Baldi is involved in a baseball game,
he desperately tries to get his ice machine to work
he does so by making Baldi freeze in a block of ice
then a ball causes the ice to break and free Baldi
then Baldi laughs victoriously that his machine will work
but TimTom arrives to throw a ball at him from the other window.
Baldi says there is nothing to eat
looks up, breaks the fourth wall, and eats his own words
Literally -_-
Baldi asks his son what he is looking at
Andrew says Rag Tom Floppy Shirt
Baldi says that is weird because he looks like an adult doing children's things
the doorbell rings and Baldi asks if they could be his bubbles.
Baldi makes an invention that makes people look more realistic
he tests it and it becomes more realistic
then at home his wife asks him if it will last
Baldi just thinks it will give him more hair
The comic is unknown about what it's about
only Baldi barking and a confused character
and that's all we know about him
Hey.
Hey..
Hey...
by the way
in the game files, this one is called "Filename," so yeah...
we finally found... Filename 1? 😏
[Unknown Comic]
Only one panel of this comic is available
and it only shows how Baldi apparently accidentally burned down a house with a woman's grandchildren inside.
But Baldi doesn't even realize what he's done :/
[Comic Characters]
There are several characters in the comics, though some don't do much or aren't very relevant
And their existence may not be entirely canonical in the end
Of those we can find are: Susan who is Baldi's wife
Andrew his son
TimTom who seems to annoy Baldi a lot because he throws a lot of baseballs at him
RagTom who is basically SpongeBob
the rest of the characters are not really relevant or they don't even have a name
[Principal in Field Trip Demo]
If you don't go back to the bus with Baldi and head back to the school hallways
you'll encounter four passable walls that say the following:
the first one:
the second one:
the third one:
and the final wall:
then the Principal comes out saying:
🗣️🔥
Although he just stands there with his arms crossed because detention doesn't exist here.
To unlock this mode you need to complete Classic Mode
Birthday Bash and the "demostration" of the demo (ik it sounds kinda dumb, but she wanted to say it like that :P)
this will unlock several options:
[Mirror Mode]
it will be unlocked by completing classic mode
here as the name says the entire game is flipped horizontally.
[LATAM mode]
Unlocked by completing party mode
the school is left without light, you have a limited range of vision because you carry a light with you
luckily some NPCs transmit a faint light
especially the Principal
[Hard Mode]
Unlocked by completing Demo Mode
There are several changes here
Playtime will make you jump 10 times
the game won't pause while you're solving problems
Baldi will never slow down
you have to answer three questions on the math machines
the Principal will increase your time for every 15 seconds
among other minor things like it would be harder to escape from Gotta Sweep
Now, you'll have to beat the game by activating these three options in a single playthrough
In any of the three modes
Once you've completed it, NULL mode will appear when you click on Baldi in the game selection.
This mode will only consist of NULL chasing you while you just collect the notebooks
there are no problems
no other characters
no music (💔)
there is poor lighting, NULL tends to be smarter than Baldi
he will take shortcuts and break windows if necessary
you can only lose him if you use the chalk erasers
Once you have collected all seven notebooks, he will block the last exit
he will do his monologue, this is when you throw an object at him
with this the boss battle begins, throw things at him while you run away from him and dodge the corridors closed by things
the music speeds up every time you throw an object at him, there will come a point where it is only drums and his speed is superior to yours
Once you've defeated him you'll appear in front of a door
when you open it you'll find an office, there's a book from the developer explaining his plans for the game
NULL interrupts this, saying that it's all lies, but he becomes increasingly corrupted
to the point that..
it may well be because of his own corruptions...
or the developer removing him
he ends up dying horribly and disappears from the game.
And you might ask...
What is the difference in Glitch mode?
Well...
now the description of the mode is:
NULL is replaced by the red Baldloon
it's the same, but it seems to talk weird and try to insult you, although yes, it will only talk in beeps
and tends to be a little more erratic
once you defeat it just appears ME in the office saying:
(🗣️🔥🔥)
when you have finished reading the note.
[Arts and Crafters in Field Trip Demo]
If you walk past the NO signs in the woods and stay there for 10 seconds or more
Arts and Crafters will appear and teleport you back to the campfire
and he also takes all your sticks

A Baldi-like character with dilated pupils, no hair, and a blue sweater with a terrified expression
He appears if a copy of the KickStarter version is detected as pirated.
It's currently used as an indicator that a game is corrupted.
His name may refer to "bad sum."
The message left on the screen when the game is hacked is the following:
While in the recurring version the message is as follows:
[B a l d p e o p l e]
First of all, Baldloon is a combination of “Baldi” and “Ballon”
and there are five of these:
the purple one
the blue one
the green one
the orange one
and the red one
The first four are basically reskins of the regular balloons
and are used to solve a puzzle
This puzzle involves entering the number of each color:
8 purple
6 blue
3 green
and one 🍊
although in the remastered version this number is random. With this you unlock a room but it will appear some red baldloons
they will multiply, they will chase you and destroy the school little by little until nothing is left
in the classic version you will see a thank you sign, and in the remastered version you will see this screen.
[Ambient sounds]
Ambient sounds are those that accompany silence in a subtle way
There are several ambient sounds, of which the following are:
A Heavy breathing, at the end you can hear a "tik-tak"
(👀)
A dulcimer with a strange sound
If you don't know what it is, here's the image
(👀)
(👀👀)
(👀👀👀)
(💀)
Something like a chicken
A pulsating synthesizer
(🔊🔊🔊)
A slight hissing sound that gradually increases in intensity.
(My ears bruh 💔)
A faint rumbling metallic sound.
You have to turn the volume up to 100 to hear anything
(No need here; I already turned up the volume.)
It sounds like children in an elementary school class, accompanied by a lot of static
(Cafeteria atmosphere (fragment))
((Glambience (Fragment)) Has constant weird sounds and repeated ruler hits.
This is the same as the previous version, but with a faint siren in the background.
This is reproduced in the remastered version.

The restaurant food measures 9 x 9 pixels

When you get locked up for 99 seconds in detention
The number of frames in Baldi's wave animation, the last frame is named
“Baldi_Wave0099”
in the files, even though the animation only has 50 frames.
When you solve a problem while at glitched school, you can hear the...
"𝟡𝟡 Seconds"
in a slow motion
In the early access trailer for the plus version
for a split second you can see an image with the 99 covering the GET READY!
In Endless Mode, the respawn time for another notebook is 99 seconds.
In the glitched school, there are a total of 9 notebooks
the counter will read 9/9.
On the final screen of Hide and Seek mode.
The farm leaderboard
In a trailer for the farm game
In the time and results after completing a floor
When hacking the classic version of the game and looking at line 13 of the code, there is a 99
The game makes reference to being set in the year 1999.
When decompiling older versions of the classic version, you can see the You Can Think Pad with the problem "Solve Math = 9 + 9."
In the Baldloons puzzle, if we add up the solutions
In other words...
8 + 1 = 9... 6 + 3 = 9
The refilled campfire gave 99 as soon as logs were placed on it.
There is a 99 board in...
🔊 In the anticipated version of the full game (audio cracked a lil bit 💔)
The funval is a value used to determine whether the game is pirated or not
If the value is not 99, then it will detect it as a pirated copy.
In the challenge demonstration, if you hack it, you can see in the Stealthy Challenge in the name that it has a 99
but due to several factors, this could have been a coincidence
In the Thank You! image, there's one below Cloudy Copter (99)
which can only be seen if we paint the background black.
Paying 99 on KickStarter would get you a large copy of the game with the original art
but there were only 99 of these
Each figure's price ends in 99
Although, this is already very common in products intended to attract more attention. (𝟗𝟗)
Come on... Marketing
Although there might be one in the box.
In the third anniversary video it appears several times, in a red balloon, on the board
in addition to this 2018 + 99 is 2117.
On the creator's Miiverse account, you can see a drawing of the game over 99
And finally, in the message from the creator of the angry Baldi plush, you can see it as an answer to the third question.
And finally...
be assured that this number will continue to be repeated over and over again in the future.
