Line #14 WMG/IndieCross


1	[[WMG:Future Opponents]]
2	It's been already confirmed that a [[spoiler:''VideoGame/HollowKnight'']] week is coming in a future update, with it later being confirmed that the opponent will be [[spoiler:Hornet]] but there could obviously be future opponents aside from that.
3	* Given that ''VideoGame/ShovelKnight'', ''VideoGame/UntitledGooseGame'', and ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' appear during the opening, they could definitely show up in future updates.
4	** [[spoiler:To be more specific for a UGG week, The Horrible Goose could gain at least two more songs to fill out a week so it doesn't only have "GOSE".]]
5	** [[spoiler:Commenting on the FNAF week, definitely would love to see Freddy as the main opponent instead of an expected character like Afton or Golden Freddy, would be pretty neat to have Freddy actually star in his own week. Or maybe they could pull a VS. FNAF and save Golden Freddy for the final song.]]
6	* A week with a fighting indie game, such as ''VideoGame/{{Skullgirls}}'', ''VideoGame/RivalsOfAether'', or ''VideoGame/ThemsFightinHerds''. Maybe multiple.
7	* An ''VideoGame/{{Omori}}'' week, with the titular character [[spoiler:or Sunny]] as the main opponent.
8	** [[spoiler:Why not both? Maybe actions you take during the songs will set you on either a Sunny or Hikikomori route where you either help Sunny separate from Omori or let him completely fall into denial.]]
9	* A week based on ''VideoGame/{{Celeste}}'', featuring Madeline as the main opponent.
10	** Given that a file with her name on it appears in the files of the streamer build, this seems pretty likely.
11	** Confirmed in the April 2024 Mini Direct
12	* A week featuring ''VideoGame/NightInTheWoods'', starring Mae as the main opponent and maybe Gregg for a bonus song.
13	* Given that [[VideoGame/CaveStory Quote and Curly]] are often considered the faces of indie gaming, it wouldn't make sense if they weren't in at some point.
14	* Someone from ''Franchise/TouhouProject'', likely Reimu and/or Marisa.
15	* A Bonus Song from [[VideoGame/{{Wandersong}} Kiwi The Bard]]. He's already an indie game about music, so it's a perfect fit!
16	* A week based on ''VideoGame/HotlineMiami'' with Jacket as the main opponent.
17	* A week based on ''VideoGame/{{OFF}}'' with the Batter serving as the main opponent.
18	* A Week based on ''VisualNovel/MonsterProm'' with either Damien, Scott, Polly, or Zoe of the main opponent
19	* A Week based on ''VideoGame/DeadCells'' with the beheaded as the main opponent.
20	* A Week based on ''VideoGame/{{Inscryption}}'' with Leshy as the main opponent.
21	* A Week based on ''VideoGame/TheStanleyParable''?
22	* A Week based on ''VideoGame/AHatInTime'' with Hat Kid as the main opponent.
23	* A Week based on ''VideoGame/OneShot'' with Niko as the main opponent.
24	* A Week based on ''VideoGame/{{Shantae}}'' with Shantae as the main opponent.
25	* A Week based on ''VideoGame/CultOfTheLamb'' with The Lamb as the main opponent.
26	* A Week based on ''VideoGame/PizzaTower'' with Peppino Spaghetti as the main opponent.
27	* A Week based on ''VideoGame/JustShapesAndBeats'' with The Boss/Annihilate as the main opponent.

29	[[WMG:Future Opponents from series already featured]]
30	[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVPOuX33ZTc According to Moro's unused content video]], a ''Cuphead'' character was planned but is being held for the next update while the Fisher Gang were planned to have their own song. While he's not the director anymore, there could still be characters that can be added as bonus songs down the way.
31	* ''Cuphead'':
32	** Mugman
33	** Miss Chalice
34	** King Dice
35	** Elder Kettle
36	** Cagney Carnation
37	** Root Pack
38	* ''Undertale'':
39	** Frisk/Chara (as actual opponents this time)
40	** Toriel
41	** Undyne
42	** Mettaton
43	** Asgore
44	** Flowey
45	** Asriel
46	* ''Bendy and the Ink Machine'':
47	** Boris the Wolf
48	** Alice Angel
49	** Fisher Gang
50	** Joey Drew
51	** Henry Stein (Getting around his [[FirstPersonGhost lack of body]] by having the song be from his POV)
52	** Norman Polk
53	** Bertram Piedmont
54
55	[[WMG:The mastermind behind Boyfriend getting thrown into other indie games...]]
56	...would be none other than Daddy Dearest. Not only would it make sense, seeing as Dearest has thrown Boyfriend into a game before (Hating Simulator), but Friday Night Funkin' is also an indie game, which fits the theme of the mod. Bonus points if his songs takes from plenty of other main-game songs.
57	* Sans inserting the "Roses" motif in the middle of his second song definitely brings Week 6 to mind.
58	* Another suspect would be the AuthorAvatar of the original director of this mod: Moro. It has been established in some videos like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqultVC0zSQ this one]] that he can summon those portals. MORØ also made a [=YouTube=] community post stating that we will learn more about these portals in the mod.
59	** Additionally, the hooded figure that appears upon losing any of the Nightmare songs looks very similar to Moro's OC. Compare his actual silhouette [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aD086SwzJRk at the beginning of this video]] to [[https://fridaynightfunking.fandom.com/wiki/File:BrightScreen.png the figure in-game]].
60	*** All of this is Jossed, the figure shown in the intro was confirmed to be [[spoiler:Nightmare Girlfriend]] by the current director in an interview. I also genuinely doubt that they'd stick someone who isn't associated with the project into this mod.

62	[[WMG:Potential Nightmare designs for potentially upcoming opponents]]
63	* [[VideoGame/HollowKnight Hornet]]'s main color could be white, and her Nightmare song would tie into either her status as offspring of the [[GodEmperor Pale King]], or the pale flowers that were shown in both the teasers for [[VideoGame/HollowKnightSilksong Silksong]] and the Godmaster update in the original game. Her Nightmare difficulty could potentially be '''Godly''' (due to being [[DivineParentage the Pale King's child]]), '''Hollow''' (referencing the vessels), or '''Radiant''' (referencing the Godhome difficulty and the Radiance herself).
64	* [[VideoGame/TheBindingOfIsaac Isaac]]'s main color could be red, and his Nightmare song would tie into him making a deal with ''his'' devil in order to obtain power, effectively making him a {{Foil}} to Cuphead. His design could incorporate any of the Devil Deals found throughout the game, most likely of which being [[BreathWeapon Brimstone]]. His Nightmare difficulty could potentially be named '''Sacrificial''' (in accordance to the game's backstory).
65	* [[VideoGame/{{Celeste}} Madeline]]'s main color could be purple, and her Nightmare song would connect to [[EnemyWithout Badeline]].
66	* [[VideoGame/BaldisBasicsInEducationAndLearning Baldi]]'s main color could be green, and his Nightmare song would incorporate the game's [[OminousVisualGlitch intentionally broken nature]].
