So as you can see I'm pointing towards the mug, what about the mug? What makes the mug special? it's just a goofy ahh mug right? nope! and for that I'll need to explain some things first.

There's a guy called ScrubLordGames, the third member of The Guys aka the creators of FNaT, yeah Jfun300 didn't make the series himself completely.

I'm not exactly sure when ScrubLordGames joined in on helping with the FNaT series, since it was way before The Guys became a thing but we can clearly see he did help out with FNaT 4 The Final Chapter as he's in the credits.

So okay this guy definitely important but what does he have to do with the mug? well after FNaT 4's cancellation, ScrublordGames would make a fun unrelated shrek horror game which a lot of people covered called The Onioning

Fun Fact: This game reuses a handful of assets from FNaT 4, mainly the toilet, bathtub & the sofa. It also even reuses the same "shrek font".



Now you're probably already wondering when I'm gonna get to the point where this all ties in with the mug, since this game isn't even related to FNaT at all, so I'll cut to that now.
There is a mug in the house segment of The Onioning & it's pretty clear that the mug in Derailed is a reference to that!

Sure the face is different but there's no denying it's an obvious reference to ScrublordGame's shrek game.

Once again Derailed proves it is not only full of details but also full of references, awsome sauce.
