I am somehow even less confident about the RPO movie now  As far as I can tell, there is a supposed 'optimal solution' for each level, but the randomized physics and controls (at least, that's how it seemed to me) make it so that even if you pick the intended solution, you can still screw up.Basically, Steven Spielberg made Bad Rats Jenga.

The multiplayer Boom Blox was quite fun at parties, at least.

I've got both Boom Blox and the sequel, Bash Party. Only ever used them for groups, didn't know there was a single player. They're great.

The sequel uses the same engine for match-3 puzzles. You throw paint balls. You have no way of knowing how poo poo will fall in more complex setups. The scoring system wants chains of matches.

The cutscene aspect ratio is weird in this one. A movie homage, I guess. 3. A Wild West adventure.

 Didn't see anybody complain about the first thing I posted, so... Image for the full video. Card Crawl (https://youtu.be/cCgOAyU40nw?t=266) is a neat port of an iOS game that I had no idea about. REPTILOIDS (https://youtu.be/cCgOAyU40nw?t=1049) is some Steam trash that I fell for.

 Let's Play Toy Story 2 Jon Burton really enjoys making videogames. This is one of them, and it's pretty okay. It's a 3D platformer where we collect things so we can move to the next level and collect more things. It isn't as "collect-a-thony" as Banjo-Kazooie, but the environments are still non-linear and exploration is required. I remember it being the best of the 3D Disney platformers on the PS1/64, so let's see how it holds up         I guess you could call that a rescue, if you wanted.

 Let's Play Squidlit "Squidlit is pretty lit." - Journalist Magazine Squidlit is an independently developed 2D platformer that follows the Game Boy's limitations and general design standards as close as possible, down to the music and sprite limitations. In spite of this, it also manages to be not nearly as frustrating as real Game Boy platformers. Squidlit is an example of how to be faithful to old gaming conventions -including the elegant simplicity of the design- without completely screwing the player over like those old games often did. Plus, it's all condensed into a 30 minute package for your convenience.

Joining me are FPzero, Tyty, and Mysticblade. Tragically, Artix skipped town the second we were done with Keysanity, so he does not appear in this video.

To celebrate the recent release of Burnout Paradise Remastered, I decided to play the older games in the series. Obviously, the beginning is always a good place to start from, so here's me playing the original Burnout while rambling on about dumb poo poo (mainly involving the games themselves, at least) in my sexy Nordic accent and having equally dumb crashes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ex09-lySTKQ This was a super casual thing I decided to do on a whim (and my first time doing live commentary on a video, which I bring up as one excuse for my horrendous driving at one point), just playing Burnout and bullshitting about stuff, so don't expect any particularly insightful commentary in this one. I'll be doing videos for the rest of the games as well, and even though these are just one-off things I figured I might as well put them here in the spirit of  edit: I'm watching the Daytona USA video from a few posts back and yes, the Saturn did use quads instead of triangles, which caused all kinds of headaches to developers. There was also some weird stuff involving the two graphics processors. DMorbid fucked around with this message at 08:26 on Mar 23, 2018 |

 I've been playing this in my off time since the middle of last year, after watching MoominBiscuit and SuperGraffiti gently caress around in it during their Terrible PS2 Games Thread, and honestly? It's not nearly as bad as people think. The controls are pretty poor, and the combat is terrible, but getting past that major thing is possible and behind it are a lot of interesting and funny enemy designs, with each level having at least 2 unique enemies and some levels not sharing any foes with any others, fairly distinctive boss fights, although the second one can go gently caress herself, and unique levels. There are 4/5 major hubs (the 5th may just be a final boss but I think it's more levels first, don't know yet) and each hub has 3 levels and a boss. The levels share a theme, but are otherwise totally different to each other so you only do each type once and this means that they don't wear out their welcome. There is a loving maze level. I never got lost in that level, always managed to find where I needed to be. That's a good maze. So here is the first level, as I explain the basic mechanics and you can see for yourself just how clunky the game is. Ace Lightning Level 1 - Googler's Big Top: Ring of Fear Ace Lightning Level 2 - Googler's Big Top: Wandering in the Walkways I haven't beaten the game yet, but I am close to the end, with only one level to go in Hub 4, so I'm fairly confident I can finish it. However I am putting it in this thread in case I hit a wall that cannot be passed, and it is an experiment with Live Commentary. The hosed up PS2 logo right at the start was a recording artifact.

Yeah, I got past the last wall earlier - one of the bosses has a gimmick that is interesting but has a nuance that is hard to notice due to the random nature of the non-existent physics engine.

I just wanna give the game a fair shake for at least being interesting, although the final boss is giving me trouble on practice runs, because there aren't a lot of videos about this game, and the only video that had any late-game footage misrepresented it to make the game look worse than it was by claiming that he had to backtrack through a platforming section - that very rarely happens, and especially not in the section he was showing, because at the end of most platforming paths there is a final platform that takes you back to the start of the room for a shortcut. Either that or you can survive the fall to the start. also there are no full walkthroughs of this game, and one of the full LPs stopped after spending multiple videos stuck in the hedge maze. It's not that hard to navigate.

I think I'll upload some PC footage if I ever get it to not gently caress up the cutscenes
