Object Asylum is a web-animated Object Show created by SnowyPackel.
It was initially supposed to be a series in 2020 until Snowy's lack of motivation and the stress of continuing the show caused him to cancel it in the middle of first episode's production.
The finalised episode "Don't Look Down!" ended up half-completed, as all the voice-acting was there but most of the animation and background weren't, yet was still released on 13th May 2022.
Blood Bottle grows bored of his excruciatingly routine life on a nearly-deserted island with eleven other objects. To break the monotony, he decides to live out his dreams and become a Game Show Host (Dragging Slushie and the rest of the residents along as his co-host and contestants respectively). Even with no prize, very limited resources and lack of organization, these objects can still have a good time competing in Object Asylum.

Contains the following tropes:
- A Dog Named "Dog": Everybody is named after the objects they resembled with no exception...
- A Lizard Named "Liz": ...unless they have the oh-so-common "-y" suffix name as Hilly has.
- Alliterative Name: Two double "B" names for Beach Ball and Blood Bottle and two "L"s in Lava Lamp.
- Animate Inanimate Object: The very nature of this show makes it obligatory for anthropomorphic objects to be the main focus.
- Anthropomorphic Food: The co-host Slushie and contestant Jam as evidenced by their self-explanatory names.
- Armless Biped: Hilly and Flower Pot both have functioning legs but no arms while Monitor is an inversion.
- Epic Fail: Crown clearly doesn't know the concept of hide-and-seek as he assumes he needed to be found the quickest and immediately comes out of his hiding spot upon seeing Blood Bottle and Slushie. This stupidity automatically eliminates Crown and put him in last place.
- Short-Runner: After two years in
Development Hell, only half an episode was produced before Snowy decided to axe the series. It currently holds the OSC record for the second-shortest Object Show, only beaten by Sinful at zero episodes. - Small Name, Big Ego: Crown believes he's of grand importance and royalty despite living on a deserted island with a small population of twelve, none of whom have taken his claims seriously.
- Something We Forgot: It's revealed in The Stinger that nobody bothered to tell Beach Ball that the game was over as he's still drifting at sea well past nightfall.Beach Ball: [Looks around confused] Is my hiding spot really that good?
- The Unreveal: The reason why Blood Bottle and Slushie named the show Object Asylum will remain a mystery as both didn't know what to call it at first but will come up with something later on. Since there's only one (actually half) episode was ever produced, there will never be a "later on".
