I asked him what he had done to ensure that younger children didn’t have access to the video. “As a YouTube creator I have done everything in my power to make sure the video is not served to kids younger than 13. Since the moment of upload the video has been marked “Not made for kids.” Since reports of the song being served on YouTube Kids started about a month ago I have been doing my own periodical sweeps of that platform and I have never found that video or song. I understand how my video being recommended to young kids would be concerning and inappropriate, but all evidence points to the previous reports saying that it’s on YouTube Kids to being false.” Throughout the games, you can find multiple tapes and files that talk about the Playtime Co. employees. These are the main people who worked for Playtime Co., creating, voicing, and selling toys, holding events and games for children, conducting experiments, and more. Here’s a brief rundown of the different Poppy Playtime employees. Newell, Suki (April 9, 2022). "Poppy Playtime Chapter 3 Needs A Monster As Good As Huggy Wuggy". Screen Rant .

The Prototype– also known as Experiment 1006, The Prototype is a mysterious entity mentioned in two VHS Tapes. We don’t know much about him just yet, though we do get a glimpse of his terrifying robotic arm and long, needle-like fingers when he slips his hand under a door to retrieve Mommy Long Legs’ mangled body towards the end of Chapter 2. Through Mommy Long Legs’ cry of ‘he’ll make me a part of him’, the community has come to theorise that The Prototype claims the parts of other experiments to make himself stronger, and that he’s likely the main antagonist of the Poppy Playtime series as a whole. We have some thoughts about this specimen in our Poppy Playtime Chapter 3 theories article

Originally marketed as a toy intended solely for providing platonic love through hugging, Huggy Wuggy was designed to possess warm and appreciative qualities. Huggy Wuggy was initially introduced in Chapter 1 as a statue in the Main Lobby of the factory. However, once the player restores power to the entire facility, Huggy Wuggy mysteriously disappears. Throughout the chapter, Huggy Wuggy makes occasional, brief appearances until he finally reveals himself and starts chasing the player during the intense Ventilation Chase sequence. Towards the end of the chapter, he is witnessed plummeting deep into the depths of the Playtime Co. Factory.Created by Playtime Co. in 1961, Bron the Dinosaur is a brontosaurus toy who shows up throughout Chapter 1 and Chapter 2. He’s a large, bright red dinosaur who appears on many in-game posters, cardboard cutouts, and advertisements, described by Playtime Co. as a hard worker who fully commits to whatever goals he sets for himself. In his cardboard cutout voice lines, he also shows himself to be a bit of a joker – though we get a glimpse of his dark side when he describes himself as ‘the scariest dinosaur’.

Retrieved May 6, 2022.I spoke to Zach Belanger, President and CEO of Enchanted Mob who made the Poppy Playtime game. I asked who the game was aimed at. “Poppy Playtime was not created with the intention to target any specific audience. Bear in mind that this was the first game our studio ever created, and our main priority was to create something that we would enjoy playing ourselves. Beyond that, we have a passion for any content we create to be enjoyable by audiences of all ages. To us, it isn't accurate to say that we created Poppy Playtime to be consumed by kids or adults, but rather our goal was simply to inspire and entertain anyone who decided to play the game.” I asked what he made of the response to the song and the warnings that were appearing in headlines. “As a father, I completely understand the concern. I didn’t intentionally make the song to scare young kids. It’s a song based on a monster from the indie horror game Poppy Playtime rated for teens and up.

However, this has been proven false, as it turns out the eyes assumed to have been viewed as a reflection of the floor.
