4 | '''The .EXE Saga: Reanimated''' is an adaptation of seven .EXE games by Canadian game developer ''[=Oldum77=]'', who had stepped out in 2021 before returning the following year with [[https://gamejolt.com/games/ts_exe_remaster/746151 the remastered version of TOYSTORY.EXE]] and now publishing widescreen versions of his past games. With ''Dark Blue Productions'' in the art department, ''[=RockyBro10=]'' and ''Pico Digital Studios'' (along with other people) putting the games into story format, and a lot of voice actors, this animation adaptation of those games focus around an ancient entity known as Respiro that wreaks havoc in different universes. |

6 | These universes in question are the worlds of ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'', ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory1'', and ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'', each affected by the scourge's wrath in numerous ways as he strives to create what he envisions as an "ultimate utopia", where he's ruler of all. |

20 | !This animated series contains the following examples: |
21 | [[folder:General]] |
22 | * AllCaps: The titles of four of the games mentioned on this page are in all caps, but not their subtitles. |
23 | * ArtShift: The animations make use of a mix of sprite work and hand-drawn animation. |
24 | * ContentWarning: As of AWHOLENEWWORLD.EXE, every animation will have a disclaimer at the beginning to warn viewers of the content present in them. This was a suggestion from [[https://www.deviantart.com/zerosoullessofarts ZeroSoulless]] and [[https://twitter.com/AvaSheckles Ava Sheckles]] after the live reaction of the prologue on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIqNQ-PnIDE&t=3741s one of Cam-Cam’s livestreams]]. Those two Greenies ([[AffectionateNickname meaning they’re good friends to CamCamVA]]) will even be credited in the disclaimer. |
25 | * CosmicHorrorStory: No universe is safe from Respiro, as his reality-altering powers allow him to manipulate what is perceived. As explained in [=TOYSTORY3.EXE=], the reality Respiro creates is an alternate reality, and it remains real for as long as he is around. |
26 | * {{Jumpscare}}: Considering this is a .EXE project, this is a given. |
27 | * ShoutOut: |
28 | ** In the prologue, the narrator mentions a few .EXE clones ([[VideoGame/SonicExeNightmareBeginning Exetior]], [[VideoGame/SonicPCPort Lord X]], ''WebVideo/Needlem0use'' and [[VideoGame/SonicEyx EYX]]) who are considered as some of the most popular ones. This was intentional on [=RockyBro10=]’s part, as he wanted to show the evolution of the Sonic.EXE trend. |
29 | ** During the Prologue, the narrator also slightly lets slip a hint that he could be [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys William Afton]], due to the mention of Cassidy and Golden Freddy being seen twitching in darkness. |
30 | ** The second half of the prologue is a massive one to [=Oldum77=] himself, for being one of the sane people involved in a Sonic.EXE-based project. |

33 | [[folder:Prologue]] |
34 | * AnimatedCreditsOpening: After all the explanations are finished, the opening credits play out, with a shot outside a grandiose castle, and the interior of it with several pictures framed on the walls. The shot eventually settles in a library, where the book discussing Respiro's tyranny lays. |
35 | * HeWhoMustNotBeNamed: The name of Sonic.EXE’s original author is censored throughout the video, with every mention of him showing an image with the caption “You don’t need to know him” ([[RuleOfThree the third time]] showing Sonic.EXE frowning). Given what said creator had done, it’s no wonder the writers decided to not say his name aloud. |
36 | * ShoutOut: |
37 | ** At the beginning of the video, gameplay footage is shown, not only of the original duology of games, but also for ''VideoGame/SonicExeSpiritsOfHell'', ''VideoGame/SonicPCPort'', ''VideoGame/SonicEyx'' and ''VideoGame/SonicReclassified''. ''VideoGame/VsSonicExe'' is also given a mention, alongside the reason it collapsed. |
38 | ** The opening credits take after the openings of Disney movies such as ''WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Cinderella}}'' and ''Film/{{Enchanted}}''. |
39 | ** Several people pointed out that the castle seen in the opening credits bears a resemblance to Cinderella's castle in Disney World. Rocky himself acknowledged this, and in his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twqXrTlsIE8 second update log]], he revealed a blueprint version of the castle. |
