STRANGEST GAME EVER _ ASHI WASH

Welcome to Ashi Wash, a game that was created during a recent Game Jam. My name is Markiplier, and I'm excited to share my experience with this unique game with you. As I enter the game, I'm greeted by a giant disembodied floating foot that's bossy, has gross fungus on it, and toenails that are horrible. It's not attached to any sort of body, and there are flies floating around it.

I have to admit, when I first saw this giant foot, I was distracted by something else. "What is that?" I ask myself, looking at a rock candy growing on the back of its heel. I laugh, thinking maybe it's candy. The idea behind Ashi Wash is for me to clean up this disgusting foot, but that's about all there is to it.

I'm not sure what the weirdest game I've played is, but Ashi Wash certainly takes the cake. It's part of a spectrum of weird games out there, and I'm just glad I got to experience it. While I don't think this is the weirdest game out there, it's definitely up there.

I watched some gameplay footage before starting my own playthrough, which only made me more curious about what to expect. As I entered the game, I saw that my goal was to take a spray can and clean up the fungus and dirt on the foot. Sounds simple enough, but things quickly became complicated.

The giant foot started talking to me, telling me it was my day to clean it if I wanted to avoid having my house turned into dust. "I swear if you don't move any faster," it said, its voice full of annoyance. I tried to reason with the foot, explaining that it didn't exactly have a body to go with its threats.

Despite my skepticism about the foot's abilities, I had to admit that things were getting out of hand. The fungus was spreading quickly, and I knew I had to act fast if I wanted to clean up the mess before it was too late. "I'm gettin impatient over here!" the foot shouted, its patience wearing thin.

As I started cleaning the foot, my mind went into a loop. I tried different actions, unsure of what would work or not. The foot seemed to be enjoying its role as bossy giant, telling me that I was doing it all wrong and that I needed to hurry up. "You're running out of time!" it shouted.

Despite the challenges, I couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of it all. There were moments when I felt traumatized by what I was seeing, like when I picked off rock candy from the foot's heel or tried to wash my eyeballs clean after looking at its disgusting state. "I love how these are the same textures as the walls," I joked.

Throughout the game, I couldn't help but wonder if it was made during a Game Jam. The quick production and simplistic gameplay seemed like something you'd find in a short time frame. It only added to my amusement when I stumbled upon a weird texture on the foot that looked eerily similar to the walls around me.

The real challenge of Ashi Wash came down to figuring out what to do next. I was constantly unsure if I should be cleaning, washing, or just staring at the foot in wonder. The game seemed designed to confuse and overwhelm, with the foot constantly telling me what not to do while giving me a seemingly endless list of tasks.

As I progressed through the game, my frustration grew. The foot was still filthy, and it told me that if I didn't get rid of the dirt faster, it would destroy my house. "You don't gotta smash yer house up!" it said, trying to placate me. But deep down, I knew we were both caught in a game of cat and mouse.

In the end, Ashi Wash was about more than just cleaning up a giant foot. It was about navigating absurd situations, understanding the weird rules of the game world, and embracing the confusion that came with playing something so bizarre. As I played on, laughing and occasionally crying out in frustration, I couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment when my playthrough finally came to an end.

In the end, it all boiled down to one final moment where I had to make a choice between cleaning up the foot or facing its wrath. "You didn't actually do anything!" the foot shouted as I finished up, its anger finally spent. I couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of it all and how ridiculous this game truly was.

I'm so happy that my experience with Ashi Wash has come to an end. There were moments where I felt like I'd lost my mind, but looking back on those moments, I realize just how much joy and amusement this game brought me.
