Lost Media

"Do not touch the Ambulant Skulls! Or you will die."This page contains drawings with stylized gore, body horror, and blood.
Mason Lindroth frequently removes large swathes of his work either intentionally or unintentionally. This lost media varies from sketches to poetry to merchandise to even full games.

## Cloudpaint Artwork (2014)

Cloudpaint is a website that has a drawing tool based on the old Macintosh program MacPaint. The website doesn't publicly show when an artwork is posted other than how many years ago it was posted, so the date shown is a rough approximation. Only three of these works were posted on his Tumblr, being "Checkpoint," "Thing," and "House." These have since been deleted.

The original description of the post containing the three works read:

> *"Currently playing with an online MacPaint clone which I found via fellow artist Ville Kallio’s blog.*
>
>

> *Pattern fills are a revelation to me. I also liberally applied the Cairo dingbats."*

## Merchandise

### Shirts

#### Test Print

On February 27th of 2020, Mason Lindroth announced official merchandise for Hylics which consisted of several t-shirt designs. On the same day, Mason showed off a few images of test prints that had been made to ensure the shirt's quality. On March 2nd, Mason announced that by popular demand the test prints were available to order at the merch store. After some time the test prints were taken down from the store for unknown reasons.

The front of the shirt features the body piece of the Hand of Moodbleen at the top, below which are many color values and a single frame from Pongorma's dance animation pasted 3 times. Below the Pongorma sprites is a cropped image of the concert scene from the end of Hylics 2, as well as a monochrome Gibby Redivivus and the Fronder standing next to each other.

The back of the shirt features Viewax and 4 Tyros surrounding him. Behind the group is the body piece of Hand of Moodbleen and below the group of enemies is the upper half of one of the shops from *Hylics* pasted twice. The shopkeeper is replaced with a couch and a few characters can be seen here such as Slughead, Monoops, Mystic Lackey, and two Dedusmulns.

#### Wayne Shirt

The front of the shirt features the first frame of Waynes death animation in *Hylics* with the first game's logo below him. Some shirts had a melting Wayne design on the back, but at some point, they were removed from the design.

Around early august 2022, Mason removed the Wayne shirt from the store.

#### Somsnosa Shirt

This shirt was one of the earliest shirts released. It would be taken down soon after release, presumably because Mason wasn't happy with the print quality. This shirt features Somsnosa sitting on a green couch with a dark cloud above her head, with one frame of the gesture Legend of Melting from *Hylics*.

## Poetry

### June 25th 2013 (Transcription)

> Outside, a woman explains that the dirt under us is silent ant-hill dirt. The ants can maneuver through it more stealthily. Whatever is in the urns helps to produce the silent dirt. She knows its a big innovation but she hasn't told the president about it yet.. He is moody and she is waiting for (Scribble) the right moment

> The director made (Scribble) two of these movies; they are in a masterful & dreamlike style (Scribble) (Scribble) (Scribble), (Scribble) better than his most well-known work. The ice woman is in a futuristic gladiatorial arena on (Scribble) a remote planetoid. She is undefeated. She fights with bare hands.

> The ice woman is moving to a new apartment. A monitor asks why she's chosen to live in this remote frontier apartment complex which has only 10% of its staff present. She waves the monitor off. (The monitor speaks for some kind of massive dystopian government.)

> Alberich --> well, he's called Alberich anyway. fends off adversaries in a luminous icicled cavern. He's speaking Finnish or something and subtitles appear below him. His speech becomes more strange - he eventually (Scribble) just repeats one sylabble over and over rapidly. An emaciated loin-cloth wearer is stuck in the abdomen with a spear, thrown by a man in the popelike garb. Years later the stricken man is some sort of prince. He is corpulent and fills out his white heavily medaled uniform. There is a lavish feast, on a long table in a palace in a warm climate. (Scribble) Most everything is white: the walls, the cloth. There are two empty Chairs, then (Scribble) one chair has (Scribble) Dracula in it. He looks strange and horrific. A bizarre monster. He is a brown-green with bumpy flesh & spots... like a toad. His head is split like some kind of flower. He radiates perverse evil.

(Scribble) (Scribble) Seated at a table corner, what is described as a disembodied head, visible only to an anxious madman. On closer (Scribble) inspection, it is a pizza box. Open. It breathes (Scribble) sensually, like in a cronenberg film. The (Scribble) pizza falls down into empty space below it.,. then again, and again. The film is on a loop.
