🙂☻ [ A Nastolagic Hangout Game..? ] 🎮📪

Affiliation: Temporarily affiliated with RIS (Roblox Inbetween Society). The player's choices at key points in the storyline depend on the player's choices. Initial Situation: The player lives in the "Happy House Under Surveillance" in 2012 with their friend, the Postman. For a long time, they don't notice anything unusual. The first anomalies: They begin to notice glitchy objects and hidden cameras throughout the house. These findings are alarming and compel them to search for answers. Critical Moment: After the Postman's death at the hands of SMILE, the player finds themselves in a portal leading to the RIS facility.

Appearance: Postman appears as a typical Roblox NPC in brown tones, but with the characteristic attributes of a postman: uniform, cap, letter bag, and scarf. His design is intentionally simplified, creating a contrast with the game's escalating horror elements. Postman is a key character in the first part of the trilogy, A Nostalgic Hangout Game…?, a friend of the protagonist who makes no secret of his NPC status, occasionally mentioning it in dialogue. He plays a crucial role in the development of the plot and the uncovering of mysteries related to the RIS organization and the SMILE entity. Initially, he is introduced as a friendly neighbor and assistant to the protagonist, living with them in the "Happy House Under Surveillance." Postman performs his usual duties—delivering mail and maintaining order in the house. He seems to be the only "normal" element in the environment, where the first anomalies—glitches, hidden cameras—are already beginning to appear. When the situation becomes critical, Postman decides to reboot the server to stop the anomalies. This act becomes a turning point: it attracts the attention of SMILE. During a server reboot, Postman is killed by SMILE. His death is the first clear sign of the threat facing the protagonist. Consequences. Postman's death sets off a chain of events: SMILE opens a portal, transporting the protagonist to the RIS facility; the protagonist is forced to disguise himself as a RIS employee in order to survive; SMILE's goal is revealed—to restore the classic internet era. Postman isn't just a minor NPC. His character carries several meanings. He's the main character. Postman is his only ally at the beginning of the game. Their friendship makes his death more emotionally significant. Postman becomes the first victim, demonstrating the power and ruthlessness of the SMILE entity. RIS Through Postman, the player first encounters RIS technology. His attempt at rebooting is key to understanding the structure of the game's world. The player may notice that Postman sometimes behaves unnaturally: freezing, repeating movements, or staring into space.

Its actions and motivations form the basis of the plot of the entire series. True Form. A tall silhouette with an unnaturally wide smile, round eyes, and spindly limbs.

A Nostalgic Hangout Game…? The game takes place in 2012. The player appears in an exact replica of the "Happy Home," a cozy abode designed to allow users to relive their favorite Roblox memories. At first, the game seems safe and nostalgic, but as the story unfolds, this façade crumbles, and the player is immersed in a complex story with intertwining layers of secrets. The Postman Appears. A highly specialized NPC named the Postman greets the player at the front door. He becomes the main companion for the first half of the game. Initial Anomalies: The player discovers mysterious phenomena: a flickering screen, distorted music, the appearance of a black humanoid in the window, and a glitching radio that begins to sing when interacted with. Changes in the House: Over time, strange things begin to happen in the house: furniture disappears, glitchy stickers with mysterious messages appear on the mirror, and the TV breaks, revealing a camera hidden inside. Conflict with RIS and SMILE. SMILE is a mysterious string anomaly that attempts to draw the player deeper into the maelstrom of events and uncover hidden truths. The Roblox Inbetween Society is a secret group existing within the platform's code. They attempt to maintain control over SMILE's influence and forcibly restart the server to remove the player from the game. Shootout and RIS Portal: The player attempts to interrupt the gameplay loop by taking the Postman's truck. This leads to RIS intervention: their employees appear in the game, a shootout ensues, and the truck crashes. Amidst the wreckage, a multi-hexagonal RIS portal appears before the player. Over the course of the game, the player must complete two tasks: 1. Disable the generator/machine designed to limit SMILE's power and extract excess energy for the platform. 2. Free SMILE by opening three locks in the holding cell, freeing it after eight years of imprisonment. Finale: After freeing SMILE, the player finds themselves in a rainbow tunnel and then teleported to the official Crossroads reconstruction.
