Idk who started the reverse-a-move for these puzzle games, but I love them. Makes these kinds of games way less frustrating without removing any of the difficulty, that on top of a solid game is just a great time.
I'm further in the game than you are (at least based on the video), and there's been a few moments that left me genuinely awestruck once I realized how something worked. This game has an impressive amount of logic and thought put into it
The biggest baba is you vibes, especially with that text based level. Hopefully this game provides the absolute trip that baba did with every turn. Games like these don’t come often..
I'm on world 16, and can definitely confirm it's just as much of a trip as baba is you, if not more. It's not nearly as meta, but it trips I'm its own way
I do wish pushing a box out of itself made an infinite line of the same box like you'd intuit would happen from looking at it, rather than arbitrarily stepping in and saying nah actually it just take you to bad room where you can sit and think about what you've done The mechanics of having an infinite identical line of yourself and other boxes in a void would be really interesting mechanically I remember seeing that in the demo & hoping it was just a case of something that was gonna be saved for the full game
@@CalebKlomparens i’m not very far into the game (i don’t think, anyway) but i’ve had thought of “is it possible to win while in a paradox” that’s very good to know
@@acblook I think it's more like the infinity-box is a self-contained representation of infinitely recursed boxes, and the reason you exit the infinity box the way you do is that you're pushing the level *outside* of infinitely many boxes, so that you're paradoxically entering the layer *after* infinity
25:01 As someone who has dabbled in CodinGame in the past, I am positive that this is what the game truly looks like when all of the visual design/feedback are removed.
It's a text based representation that could for example be used for debug outputs in the command line, but there is no way the game uses sth like this internally
@@doomse150 It certainly can be. Depending on how the level is stored, it very well could be EXACTLY how its stored internally. The simplest way to store a level in a 2D game like this is to use an array. Like this Level1 = { "$$$$$$$", "$ # $ $", "$ $ ", "$b 2 $", "$$$$$ $", } Then you go through your array and for every char in your string, you draw it to your screen with your specific x, y position with its designated graphic. I'm sure it's not stored like that but its fun that it can be!
@@MythicTF2 You could use that text based representation for storing levels in a file on disk (even though I would go for a more standardized format like nested json or xml, so that I don't have to write and debug a custom parser), but use certainly wouldn't (or at least shouldn't) use it for storing the game in memory while running the game (because that would e.g. require rewriting the string for every move). Object oriented programming is a thing for a good reason.
@@doomse150That was an overly simplified comparison on my part. Of course this game would work best with object-oriented programming, there has to be an internal level editor somewhere! It is just that seeing this level relates to me on a spiritual level somehow.
You fools... Obviously this game is made in MSPaint, how else would he have those pictures on the screen? Have you ever seen pictures in the middle of a code before, geniuses? Smh...
for those interested 0:07 0:50 8:26 15:25 25:10 Second and third were the same code, great video tyler this game is such a cool concept glad you are back on it!
p.s. 1: put a box between the level and the outside of the level 2: the game has a feature where you can click into a box to zoom in. when you try to move, however, it pops you back out. if you do this with a recursion box, however, then you can move freely while zooming in or out infinitely.
Man, whatever game you play, as long as it gets you goin', I'm into it. I love the way you portray the expereinced gamer playing completely new games that are outside your understanding of "cliches" and "clasics"
Darn, found one of the codes on accident, but I’m too lazy to use it lol. Aside from that, I’ve seen a demo of this game and it’s way cooler then I expected. I just finished the vid, game is trippy and awesome. These are some cool mechanics in the game, might check it out myself. Def want to see some more episodes on this game!
I'm so excited to see this! It's been difficult for me as I prefer the puzzle games on your channel, but lately it has been anything but, so I am glad to see the return:):)
This game gives me existential dread. I love it. And better yet because of how convoluted the puzzles are paired with the fact that I'm not the one solving them I'll likely forget their solutions by the time I get around to buying the game.
I finished the video and moved on already but had to come back because I just thought of something I think the reason you can’t push stuff into levels when you’re in space/void, is because you wouldn’t have anything to push that box or level against. There’s a visual square but that’s just to keep things neat. Just imagine if the boundary didn’t exist, you would just push the boxes for ever and not ouch them into each other
That text based section was really cool! I was wondering how complicated the game was to actually program... And the ascii level really illustrated its not actually as complicated as you'd expect. Very cool!
I can't even fathom how clever you have to be, to have come up with the idea for this game. Damn I wish I was that clever. This makes me think there's no end to new puzzle game ideas, it's just harder to come up with something new and clever.
I have strayed away from this game for so long because I thought it was a puzzle game not for me. But thanks to humble bundle, I was able to grab some very notable puzzle games for a huge discount ,and this one was one of em. I am hooked to this game. It's very unique and the learning curve is very forgiving
Lets goo mate finally this game is so cool It wasn't a a long wait for me it seems since I found about it like a month ago but still Im glad that this is finally a series
the text-based level at the end really teases the existence of a level editor bc it showcases that texts are all we need to describe the geometry of a level design
Tyler, I just want to say I love your videos. I've been watching for awhile now and all I can say is you are a phenomenal creator and I only look forward to seeing your successes!
Your brain works so much faster than mine on these puzzles. By the time I've even figured out what makes the level difficult, you're already halfway through completing your solution to it.
Hey aliensrock I have a small game recommendation, it's called mindustry which is a mix between a tower defense game and a factory management game where your factory directly fuels your towers ammo and your weapon types themselves
I spent 2 and a half hours on it after it was out yesterday. This game is awesome. I stopped playing to sleep after spending 10 minutes having my jaw dropped by the "Player" world.
I really enjoyed those codes, even though I didn't manage to nab any. I wonder what that does to your viewer interaction, maybe more comments. Will say, that first code was of incredibly poor quality from a video perspective
I remember something I wanted after watching the demo video was a mini map that showed the whole puzzle. I guess it isn’t needed but it would help visually know where in the puzzle you are at
Haha, I'm here. Yes lets go finally caught another vid within 30 minutes. Great vids my guy, love the streams and vids. You should try Rogue Tower sometime, the soundtrack is nuts.
15:56 Wait a minute. What if- What if what we did created some sort of time loop situation morphing the level into the level that we create infinitely?
If you're one of the lucky people to find a code in this video, have fun! This game is a blast and it's only going to get better.

The next evolution of this is undo the level restart, there are probably other examples but I first saw it in can of wormholes
Puzzle games like these have really good level editor potentials.

yoo, sick! i remember seeing the first video on this, excited to see that it's finally out

I can't help but wonder if there will eventually be levels where you have to intentionally cause a parabox in order to win.
I do wish pushing a box out of itself made an infinite line of the same box like you'd intuit would happen from looking at it, rather than arbitrarily stepping in and saying nah actually it just take you to bad room where you can sit and think about what you've done
The mechanics of having an infinite identical line of yourself and other boxes in a void would be really interesting mechanically
I remember seeing that in the demo & hoping it was just a case of something that was gonna be saved for the full game
I won't spoil how, but the late game levels absolutely do require intentionally causing paradoxes.

This game totally broke my brain at first, so I’m thankful the first levels were the necessary information before it jumped into the bigger concepts.

Nice theory, but I think you'll find some levels that contradict it.
It’s just to punish Patrick for what he’s done and make him think about the consequenses

The text based level is probably how he encodes all the levels, they are probably read from that format and then rendered as 2D objects.
