Snake: 5

I was astonished how genuinely creepy this was. The low-detail models of Team Fortress 2 characters really suits this type of horror story well. The canned, stop-motion like animations emits an uncanny vibe that just feels wrong to look at. Hell, even characters that aren't Painis Cupcake look downright disturbing to me. The Painis Cupcake character uses chopped up samples from the actual game to spine-tingling effect, like a Creepypasta at times, taking a game & twisting it for nefarious purposes, an inside joke meant for the community but would scare anyone else who coincidentally came across it. I would half expect a story accompanying this where Painis Cupcake takes the battlefield after obscure conditions are met and curses everyone in the match to die in seven days. There is an undeniable element of humor to it though too, hilariously taking these characters out of their expected context and placing them in a situation unknown and alien to them. Some of the best work is birthed from this experimentation and in the most unexpected of places, making this an interesting, if somewhat forgettable, horror story.
