Dora.dmi: Difference between revisions

Without any hesitation, I plopped the game into the cart slot of my Gameboy advance, And turned it on.

It started up as usual, with that little "Duuuuh...Du-ding!" shining sound that the Gameboy usually starts up with.

Then the title card for the game appeared, and to my suprise, it was the title screen for ''Dora the Explorer: The Search for Pirate pig's treasure. ''But, the title screen had the name of the cartdridge on it.

"Dora.dmi". The title had the same music, and everything. Except for the title.

I pressed start as it told me, and there was only on option.

"Start." Just, Start. There wasn't options, continue, or new game, it was just 'start'. Well, with no other options, I pressed start just as the screen told me to do.

The game began. There wasn't cutscenes, though, it just took me straight to the map.

The map looked like a actual scene from the show. It had the three places that Dora and Boots go to, instead this time...There was 8. And some of the map's icons looked like they were drawn poorly and in MS paint.

The level icons were little green Boxes. There was a mountain, a Swamp, a forest, and what looked like a portal.

I had to begin at Level 1, so I did. I was playing as a poorly drawn Dora as I recall. Still, looked like it was in MS paint style.

This wasn't any level 1 I was used to. The level was called "DORA" and the level wasn't green and happy at all. It was Dora just in a dark asylum. It reminded me of Alicia...And why on earth would Dora be in an Asylum anyway?

There was a person across from Dora.

When I walked up to him, He vanished. And he left behind a little cube. It was exactly like the map icons. I walked over to pick it up. When I touched it...

The screen went nuts. It started screeching and hollering and flashes of Dora crying popped up. It lasted for about 40 seconds. The screaming only got worse. It sounded like someone was seriously hurt.

The screen went black. I heard soft sobbing. Which then got louder and louder for about 20 seconds. Text appeared on the screen as the sobbing continued.

"Swiper swiped your heart. Want to try again?" Then there was a yes/no option. Being curious as ever and taking orders from Alicia to finish it, I clicked yes.

Then the second level appeared. The title card read: "Boots". Sure enough I was playing as a poorly drawn Boots.

The second level was much different. It was Boots in a graveyard...And he was crying. He was sobbing softly, And...It sounded real. Like he was a real boy crying. I didn't know the gameboy could handle that quality of sound, And I was a gameboy WIZ.

Anyway, Boots was crying over a grave...It must have been Dora's...And sure enough it was.

... I could do nothing but watch Boots weep over the loss of his companion.

I couldn't move, I couldn't jump, I even tried to turn the system off...But I couldn't bring myself to do so. I had to finish this for Alicia.

Boots sobbed and cried for about 30 seconds. Suddenly, A hand uprised out of Dora's grave. It snatched Boot's leg and down went Boots. The screen cut to black and all I could hear was screaming of agony.

The screen came back about 30 MORE seconds later. This time it was level 3.

The first 2 levels were quick scarers, and I was feeling something...It was actually...Fear. I was scared of what would happen next. This game caught me off guard...I tried to hide my feelings for this game. But now I had to tell you guy's because I'm telling this tale.

The third level was long. The title card read: "FAIRGAME". This time I was playing as Dora again... But how? I saw Dora get murdered...I think so. This level was just a dark hallway...which got darker and darker as I progressed. Until I got to the point in which I saw....

Boots. Hanging from the ceiling, his entrails hanging out,a-and it was actually shaded too, his eyes still wide open. I held my hand over my mouth in utter shock. There was bloody text. "YOU ARE NEXT, MITCH" .

I nearly cried. How the HELL did this game know who I was?! I nearly threw the game out the window. I couldn't bring myself to do so, yet again Obeying Alicia.

Who made this game!? And how did they know who I was!?!?

I progressed, still with that image in my head. I progressed more and more, (UNFINISHED.)
