Uh guys... I think Kirby might be hungry.

Lumpy Touch is a pixel artist who has become infamous for his horrific reimaginings of beloved characters. And oh boy, is he good at that.

Moments pages are Spoilers Off, as per wiki policy. You Have Been Warned.


  • His main series, GameBoy Garfield, portrays the cat as a horrific shapeshifting Eldritch Abomination terrorizing Jon that holds Arlene captive, is immune to bullets, and eventually destroys the world.
    • The "game" opens with a cut scene taking place two weeks before the events of the game, revealing that Lyman has been locked up in an asylum, and is currently banging on the door to his cell, begging for anyone to listen to him. Inside, the walls are covered with insane writing, all of which refers to Garfield, Jon, and the other characters, and some sort of horrific disaster that is about to strike, including a drawing of a mushroom cloud and a massive, winged monster. Driven to insanity, Lyman can only say that he has "seen it"...
    • The game itself, showing Jon trying desperatly to avoid his former pet as he's stalked through the house, and only barely survives. Garfield has several different forms, such as one that resembles a grotesque spider, one that looks like a monstrous parody of his normal body with creepy, spindly arms and a massive torso fused with the head, and finally, a disturbingly realistic form that looks like a giant, regular cat. It's never revealed why Garfield has undergone this horrific transformation, if he's always been capable of it, or if he's been corrupted or possessed somehow.
    • Nermal is revealed to be a government agent, and forces Jon to obtain a blood sample from Garfield, and later, free Arlene from the basement as she is needed for whatever project he's in charge of as well. Nermal states that there will be "consequences" if Jon doesn't do what he's told. He meets a gruesome fate at the hands of Garfield once he tries to enter the house himself.
    • The second cutscene, showing that Odie was attacked by Garfield early on, and transformed into a grotesque mutant hyprid of plants and flesh.
    • He's now completed a set of videos of 12 additional Gorefields based on the Western Zodiac, all with monstrous abilities. Aries Gorefield can intrude and manipulate their Jon's dreams, Gemini Gorefield can create an exact clone of their Jon, Scorpio Gorefield flashes visions of death onto their Jon which then become reality, and so on. The complete Gorefield Horrorscopes can be found here.
  • Movie Sonic Wants to Talk portrays the hedgehog's film incarnation as a terrifying creature that ate the real Sonic and at one point makes terrifying sounds with his lips. The sequel, meanwhile, has the filmmakers running in fear from an even more horrific and dangerous redesign of Sonic... and then a machine gun comes out of his mouth and starts shooting at the filmmakers car.
  • Kirby has a secret starts off with Kirby being his usual, cute self. However, Kirby reveals that when he gets really hungry, his skin starts to fall off. As he says this, his stomach starts to gargle. This continues on as his skin falls apart, his muscle tissue becomes exposed with blood splattering everywhere, and his eyeballs become bug eyed, to the point that they pop out entirely!. As this occurs, he giggles all throughout like it's a normal occurrence. What makes this more unnerving is that as his voice deepens, his normal voice can still be heard as well. The fact that Kirby refers to you as meat, shows how he only considers you to be food. The image used for this page speaks for itself.
    Kirby: (Distorted) Hey meat, climb inside me. I'm STARVING!
    (He proceeds to inhale the viewer, revealing rows and rows of razor sharp teeth that go down his throat)note 
    Kirby: (Muffled) mMmMmMm. So yummy!
  • Wooloo Has a Secret portrays the beloved Pokémon as a many-eyed demon that can see the future. And you're not in any of them.
  • Saving the absolute worst for last, his video based on Banjo-Kazooie has Mumbo's spell not work and fuse the two together. When asked if they can be turned back, Kazooie responds that they "like being together" before vomiting up eggs in the most graphic way possible that hatch into Jinjos that eat Mumbo alive.
  • BUZZBOUND is a mock-up for an EarthBound prequel starring Buzz Buzz, who goes back 10 years into the past to find Ness and spur him into action... only to miss his mark by only a few weeks. And in those few weeks Gigyas has already made major strides in conquering the Earth: Nightmarish creatures run amok, most of Onett's population has seemingly been turned to stone, and whatever local flora and fauna are still kicking have undergone bizarre, eldritch mutations. After some exploring he makes it to Ness's house, which seems perfectly intact... at least until Buzz Buzz defeats Ness's mom and realises that the house's interior is an illusion. The house is actually run-down and littered with skeletons as Ness's mutated, maddened mother sits in the ruins of the dining room, telling her son to "come to dinner" before attacking Buzz Buzz. Buzz Buzz then goes downstairs and finds Ness's sister and dog in test tubes and attempts to free them, only for them to fuse together into a spindly canine chimera that makes Nina Tucker look like a stuffed animal in comparison. After taking that thing out, Buzz Buzz finally finds Ness... only to realise that Gigyas got to him first, corrupting his mind beyond repair and forcing Buzz Buzz to put him out of his misery by forcing him through the timestream and crushing him with his time machine.
  • Super Mario World Purgatory Hell: A bizarre level of Super Mario World where Mario has somehow been trapped in a small space underground, which is only a few inches taller and wider than him. The soundtrack is a strange, distorted loop of music, and the only power-up is a poison mushroom that Mario can't even use, since he's stuck on the left side of where it falls down. The description reveals that Mario is trapped in this state forever...
  • Lumpy Super Mario Land: The video begins as a normal playthrough of the first level of Super Mario Land, with Mario collecting coins and jumping on a Goomba... except when he passes one of the early pipes, an odd, dark shape briefly peeks out of it, only to disappear back down again. Following, Mario enters the underground area, where everything appears normal, except someone has drawn arrows on the wall, leading him further inside. More scribbles appear on the walls, and a message stating to "Follow The Sweet Smell" and "She Lives In the Pipes" appear on the screen. Strange plants and wines begin appearing in the pipes the further in Mario goes, until he reaches a room where the eyeless corpse of a Toad is entangled in a large root! In the next room, the entire brickwork is replaced by plants, and beyond that, Mario seemingly finds Daisy... only for the music to begin to distort and an image of Mario appears on the screen showing flowers growing out of his eyes! The scene begins flashing between the "Daisy" room and reality, showing that Mario is actually trapped by a monstrous, humanoid plant in a room filled with skulls and dead toads. At this point, the Gameboy the game is being played on shuts off...
    • Its direct sequel reveals that Mario survived whatever that was (though had cost him one life), promptly getting back out of there into a Bonus Stage. After acquiring a mushroom that he eats, it turns out to be poisonous in some way, causing Mario to vomit and be handicapped for a little while. Cue him crossing a World Map (which isn't even in the original game) into a village full of Toads, who promptly get him to a hospital when he passes out. Once he awakens, he tells the Toad doctor about a nightmare he had while he was unconscious, with the Toad somehow seeing it as good news. Mario, understandably perplexed, quickly takes the clipboard and finds there's no actual notes there; only a drawing of what he described. Once he puts it away, he finds the Toad had been mutated and infected, claiming that Mario had been "chosen" by God as a vessel (hinting that HE may be the carrier of the plant-based plague) before trying to attack him. He promptly squashes the Toad, who finds pleasure in "God's blessing" before his demise. Mario immediately bolts it out of the village with many infected Toads pursuing him. One last message pops up before the Game Boy switches off for the second time; "THE HUNT BEGINS".
  • Fruity Pebbles: A Flintstones game where Barney unseals a mountain cave, to visit Fred who has somehow transformed into a monstrous giant and chained inside. Despite his grotesque new form, Fred seems normal enough, and asks if Barney brought him his Fruity Pebbles, only for Barney to reveal the Awful Truth; there's never been any fruity pebbles cereal, Fred was eating people the whole time, which is implied to be the reason for his horrific transformation. And that's not the worst part...
    Barney: You ate ONE Pebble, Fred... you ate her, Fred! You ate your daughter!!
    • Fred is driven to insanity by this revelation and refuses to accept reality or his crimes, blocking out the memories of what he's done, finally forcing Barney to leave him sealed away in the cave forever.
  • The Lumpcrate series is mostly just harmless fun; fictonal prizes that represent Lumpy's subscriber milestones in silly boxes, ranging from anime hammerhead sharks to an emoji from the future witch will riddle your text messages with futuristic spam. But the one that stands out is the Liminal Loop. While most of its description is redacted out, the most anyone knows about that thing is that it traps you in a loop and will eventually kill you. Unlike the more comedic Lumpcrate videos, this one plays it very seriously.
