I just read the book that inspired TADC, and I have some theories.
I’m not the best at explaining things, but for those who don’t know, the book’s called: “I have no mouth and I must scream���, and it’s a story that takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where there are 5 people left of the human race and they have been trapped inside a sentient ai machine who has been torturing them for years and will do so for eternity.
The book is pretty violent and vulgar, and deals with heavy themes such as… uhh… unaliving yourself…. So it’s definitely not for everyone.
But honestly, I loved it so much. It’s very dark but I am a sucker for angst/whump stuff. I adore the writing style. However, after reading, I am honestly very worried about the TADC characters now. Obviously TADC has a wayyy different tone than the book, and I know it was only INSPIRED, and not the same story, but there are some overall themes in the story that I can see happening in TADC.
The story depicts the AI as this entity of pure rage and hatred wanting to endlessly torture the humans. In comparison to TADC, Caine is nothing like this, Caine makes adventures with good intentions, what’s what he was designed for, but it makes me question his morals.
All of Caine’s adventures involve some sort of torment. This is reflected greatly in contrast to the crew’s adventure suggestions. Caine is worried at the idea that his adventures aren’t enjoyable, but above all he is puzzled as to why his adventures of torment aren’t enjoyable to the players. That’s because it goes against his programming. He is designed to create adventures that go along a certain algorithm, but that algorithm was built on an odd sense of morals. So what Caine thinks is good, isn’t.
Caine seems to be oblivious, surely he wouldn’t purposefully torment the humans like in the book. But there are a few details in the show that are hinting towards Caine getting more twisted.
The major point being this moment:

“The only thing holding Caine back is the fact that he likes us”
Caine likes them, but what do you think would happen is he hated them? Like in the book?
Caine seems to be getting more frustrated with the crew, but it’s played off as a punchline in the episodes.

There are a couple more examples I could add like Caine glitching out in two different episodes related to his purpose, but it’s 1am in the morning and I’m still ranting about this.
Basically, I strongly believe the show is setting up Caine absolutely to crack. Expecially considering the inspiration.
I’ll probably edit this a bunch in the morning but I wanted to rant about it and spark up some discussion about possible parallels to the inspiration.
Oh! Before I go, I wanna mention there was one human left at the end, and I was curious of the thought of someone being left behind if/when the crew escapes the computer. Possibly Jax? I can see that happening as a self-sacrifice to save others. It could be a bittersweet end to his arc and character development.

(This is talking about the fandom’s ribbit designs IN GENERAL vs the canon design, I am just using mine as an example bc I don��t wanna use others art for this post without permission)
DISCLAIMER: This post is NOT to be used as a petition to change the design. I understand and respect indie animation and know that asking a small studio to change a whole design they have put a lot of thought and effort into creating and animating is a lot, and very disrespectful to the creative minds. This is simply to discus opinions about the design in a respectful manner)

Update:
I think I’m gonna stick to just the one round considering how many people have voted, and that the demand for a round 2 isn’t super high to NEED to redo the thing.
UPDATE ON THE JAX/RIBBIT NAME VOTE:
There are some good ship name suggestions that aren’t in the poll. I’m thinking of cutting the vote short and having a round 2 that combines the most popular votes, and some good suggestions together.
This is the list I plan on, what do you guys think?
-Hoptoons
-RibbitRabbit
-BunnyHop
-Leapfrog
-JumpingJax
-BunnyCroaks

Dude I love the way you draw Ribbit.
It’s so funny how he goes from just a little guy to “oh shit he is messed up too” lmao.
They were both evil.

I can’t decide if I should remake the vote cause it might make things complicated and confuse some people.

Redraw this in your art style if you like Jax X Ribbit.
Also, we NEED to adopt this nickname for Ribbit. It’s so silly.

I personally see Ribbit as the same age as Jax for obvious reasons, but I cannot deny that these kinds of Ribbit fanart are SO ADORABLE!
