This game was inspired by the lead dev's childhood experience of getting a Japanese game as a kid by accident and having to glean everything from the pictures of the manual and gameplay
This game is amazing, the fact that you can do everything from the start of the game, and the fact that the manual that you collect, is an actual user's manual that was hand-drawn, with concept art, and it's what gives you instructions on the game
So many people comment on these highlights saying “you should just upload the whole playthrough as the highlight” but that could not be more true for this game. This shit fuckin rules
I love it when a game slowly reveals mechanics that makes you look at the world in a completely different light. I love this game and it was for sure my GOTY for 2022. I hope whatever project the developers do next has this much depth. Also, awesome edit Light. Was great to watch!
Some days I wish I could go back and replay this game for the first time, realizing everything as you slowly collect all the pages. The moment you SEE the lines and how it all connects and how everything comes together. How you figure everything out and then you learn how to READ, and hear what everyone has to say. Oh, to replay this game for the very first time and have the most beautiful yet challenging lightbulb moment of my damn life... How even after you beat it, invokes a feeling no other game has gotten close to as Tunic has for me. Oh... to go back, and replay this game for the very first time... There's an analogy somewhere about childhood nostalgia; how this game, makes me yearn for another first time experience.
Absolutely phenomenal game. It's such a treat to have this compilation and see Ray go from mildly excited about it to fully in love and passionate about it.
This is a contender for game of the decade for me imho. Loved watching rays play through. Him slowly finding out about the game and solving its secrets was very interesting to watch
God i loved the vhs like edit for this. Really fit in with the whole classic video game vibe tunic had going for it. Also i understood the tunak tunak reference.
Like Ray, I got to the end and looked up what I was missing only to realize there were puzzles I hadn't even noticed were there, and that excited the hell out of me even though I knew there was no way in heck I would be able to figure most of them out without a guide
I absolutely love that the whole game has so many secrets right in plain sight that you can't make heads or tails of until the very end of it. Even knowing what I know, I don't think I could find everything if I replayed it on new game plus
Man this game makes me feel some kind of way I haven’t felt since playing hollow knight. Phenomenal music, story, and aesthetic. Glad I got to watch ray play it.
This was easily my favourite playthrough of the last year. Such a well put together game and SO cute! Thanks to Light for putting this vid together. You never fail man!
Tunic is THE GAME that I wish i could reexperience. I used to think something like Halo, Mass Effect, or Dead Space would be my "for the first time again" pick, but Tunic's puzzels and world exploration just created this perfect experience. Especially enhanced by my wife sitting next to me and figuring out everything. Unfortunately, i will never get to experience it for the first time again. And it honestly makes me sad.
I got so lost and confused that I didn't wanna play this anymore, so i'm glad i could watch someone do it. And i know i never woulda did all the hidden directions and puzzles. Great game tho. Ray you're a champ
Love to see that Ray enjoyed this game. This is my GOAT game since I played it. Figuring out all the puzzles on my own (so much trial and error) and the language with help from a few friends was a blast. It's not a perfect game but it scratches that exploratory itch and sense of achievement from figuring out the puzzles that I haven't found in a long time and would highly recommend to people who like to wander off the beaten path in video games.
Good old indie-adventure games; the only thing most certain than cute main characters and innovative game mechanics, are the *elements of Lovecraftian cosmic horror*
This game was one of my favorites of 2022. I absolutely adored how this game combined the vague, but fair, puzzle delivery of FEZ while combining it with the exploration style of A Link to the Past. Edit: It is worth saying that the “DoYouFearTheDistantShore” is a puzzle that was meant to be an absurdly difficult and vague puzzle since it doesn’t really contribute to the game at all. It’s kind of like the easter egg puzzle in FEZ. You had to take a binary sequence from lights, convert it to ASCII, and then to a button sequence.
I needd to get back and finish this game. Was so fun, but it's been so long I'm gonna have that issue where I have no idea where to go after I was absolutely manhandled by the Heir
This game deserved like 6 game awards and got 0. Honestly should have been in the running for Game of the Year. Didn't even beat Stray for Indie Game, somehow. Honestly it feels like people just vote for whichever game they know, so Indie Game of the Year goes to whichever game was most marketed and therefor whichever least exemplifies Indie as a genre. I enjoyed Stray, but every other nominee was far better.
I played this after watching Ray play this........... I never figured out how to change my skin.... After watching the highlight.... I understand it now... F...! Anywho this is an amazing game and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Absolutely incredible game. Top 5 I've ever played, easily. I am butthurt, though, that Ray didn't look at the other pages for the other parts of the Golden Path. It's all so fucking sneaky and hidden in plain sight and absolutely fucking mind blowing. This game is truly something else. I aspire to make stuff like it one day
This game is soo damn good. I think this, Stardew Valley and outer wilds are genuine masterpieces and i am so glad that indie devs are making such interesting games; honestly, thank god for the indie devs for keeping gaming interesting. (cos the big studios sure don't like taking risks anymore)
The lines Mason!! side not I also just noticed that every time you come across those little white flowers it's a secret side side note pg 54 is an explanation of how to translate the symbols into english
So just a heads up did you notice green blue and red symbolizes something? The barriers for the mom you magic stamina and health... You see the theme? Power, courage, wisdom.
Well, it's too bad you didn't break out the note paper and make a serious effort to solve some of those end-game puzzles yourself. I think Tunic does a better job than any other game out there at making almost anyone want to get into that stuff. But hey, if it's not for you, it's not for you, and I'm really glad you were able to appreciate the genius design and get your mind blown even just looking up how you were supposed to do it.
Glad he enjoyed it. I thought it was alright but not great, just due to the loose controls. Some tweaks to combat would've made it way better gameplay wise. Otherwise, I enjoyed everything else.

Light, your editing is, as always, on fucking point. 'Maybe it's the magic card, excuse me the spell card' with the quick edit. 10/10.
Thank you!!!
@@GameBoiLight I also appreciate you pulling the receipts on Ray saying he didn’t kill the babies.
ray's slow decent into confusion capping off with realization after realization was amazing!! Such a great game to play/watch!!
Isn't it so good?!
It like watching him break down but super funny. "The lines man...they're everywhere! I SEE PATTERNS WHERE NONE EXIST EXCEPT THEY DO!"
This game was inspired by the lead dev's childhood experience of getting a Japanese game as a kid by accident and having to glean everything from the pictures of the manual and gameplay
Crazy, this game was made for me then I use to do the same back then.
the reversed miyazaki
Ah yes, the dopamine rush of realizing that you were surrounded by puzzles the entire time but your eyes were not yet open. Good times.
i wish more games had this
Literally Bloodborne
This game is amazing, the fact that you can do everything from the start of the game, and the fact that the manual that you collect, is an actual user's manual that was hand-drawn, with concept art, and it's what gives you instructions on the game

Ray losing his mind at all of the endgame puzzles is some of my favorite Ray moments from 2022.
I love it when a game slowly reveals mechanics that makes you look at the world in a completely different light. I love this game and it was for sure my GOTY for 2022. I hope whatever project the developers do next has this much depth.
Also, awesome edit Light. Was great to watch!
Thanks for watching, Fritz!!!
Glad I wasn't the only one, I was sad when I beat the game because I genuinely loved it so much.
The amount of times Ray got his mind blown from realization moments is awesome. I'm glad he thoroughly enjoyed Tunic and everything that was in it.
Tunic was such a great game. And super on point with the editing, especially showing the golden door puzzle. That thing was crazy.
Thank you!

It always puts a smile on my face when Ray absolutely loves a game by the end of it.
33:08 I remember seeing Tunak Tunak Tun randomly while in high school! What a reference!
Easily my Game Of The Year for 2022. Just brilliant.
God i loved the vhs like edit for this. Really fit in with the whole classic video game vibe tunic had going for it. Also i understood the tunak tunak reference.
My fav (2022) playthrough from Ray, such a chill stream and really got me into this game that I never would've thought twice about.
Like Ray, I got to the end and looked up what I was missing only to realize there were puzzles I hadn't even noticed were there, and that excited the hell out of me even though I knew there was no way in heck I would be able to figure most of them out without a guide

I can see the _lines_
Such a good game. Great playthrough. So many clips of Ray's mind being blown, made for some real fun highlights.
This was easily my favourite playthrough of the last year. Such a well put together game and SO cute! Thanks to Light for putting this vid together. You never fail man!
Thank you for watching!!!
A highlight for one of my favourite games back in 2022. Thanks Light!
Thanks for watching!!
I loved watching Ray play this game and seeing Light's edits made it even more enjoyable 😂❤
Thank you for watching!!
@ 33:08 yes ray Delar Mehndi is a legend in India
Tunic is THE GAME that I wish i could reexperience.
I used to think something like Halo, Mass Effect, or Dead Space would be my "for the first time again" pick, but Tunic's puzzels and world exploration just created this perfect experience. Especially enhanced by my wife sitting next to me and figuring out everything.
Unfortunately, i will never get to experience it for the first time again. And it honestly makes me sad.
This highlight made me go back and 100% this game. Very nice playing it again
I got so lost and confused that I didn't wanna play this anymore, so i'm glad i could watch someone do it. And i know i never woulda did all the hidden directions and puzzles. Great game tho. Ray you're a champ
33:30
Ah, a vintage meme reference! And such a finely aged one, too, how exquisite! 🍷
Comfort playthrough now in highlight form, I have been blessed this day ❤
Amazing editing and cc! 🥰
Thank you for watching ❤️

Absolute masterpiece of a game, easily one of my top contenders for game of the year 2022.
Even the highlight of the gameplay was awesome. Such a great game and a fun watch!
Good old indie-adventure games; the only thing most certain than cute main characters and innovative game mechanics, are the *elements of Lovecraftian cosmic horror*
Love this playthrough. This game took Ray on a _journey._
I'm kinda partway between Crabbo and Crabbit, personally.
What a game and what a good highlight video, Thanks Light and Ray!
Thank you for watching!
This is WILD. I always am AMAZED how people can figure this shit out
The frogs lair where are the RUclips frogs hang out and plan to overthrow the twitch chads
Soon, Brothers and Sisters...
This is truly the Frog's Domain
On the one hand, I got the "TUNIC TUNIC TUN" reference.
On the other hand, I was born the same year as Ray
YMMV
This game was one of my favorites of 2022. I absolutely adored how this game combined the vague, but fair, puzzle delivery of FEZ while combining it with the exploration style of A Link to the Past.

Don't worry Ray, I got the reference with the stream title, I made a mixtape as a teen with that song
Once you find the golden cross, you are never the same
Tunak tunak is a good song. Very meme on society. Much wow.
Fun fact, the MP3 can be used to translate the in-game spoken lines.
Couldn't click this video fast enough. Love this game
I needd to get back and finish this game. Was so fun, but it's been so long I'm gonna have that issue where I have no idea where to go after I was absolutely manhandled by the Heir
What an incredible game. I'm stuck at the gauntlet of enemies, but I really want to finish this now. Wow. Wow. Wow.
Just turn on no fail mode. The accessibility options don't block achievements.
This game deserved like 6 game awards and got 0. Honestly should have been in the running for Game of the Year. Didn't even beat Stray for Indie Game, somehow.
Honestly it feels like people just vote for whichever game they know, so Indie Game of the Year goes to whichever game was most marketed and therefor whichever least exemplifies Indie as a genre.
I enjoyed Stray, but every other nominee was far better.
I understand the reference, grandpa. Now, let's get you back to bed. DA DA DA!
I played this after watching Ray play this........... I never figured out how to change my skin.... After watching the highlight.... I understand it now... F...! Anywho this is an amazing game and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I do in fact understand the reference, what a banger video
Lost twice to Stray, btw (the Game Awards are rigged! Jk).
Loved this play through, loved this gave. Hope 2023 brings us more masterpieces.
My favourite thing about Tunic is that it was developed with speedrunning in mind.
SUCH a cute thumbnail!
Absolutely incredible game. Top 5 I've ever played, easily. I am butthurt, though, that Ray didn't look at the other pages for the other parts of the Golden Path. It's all so fucking sneaky and hidden in plain sight and absolutely fucking mind blowing. This game is truly something else. I aspire to make stuff like it one day
28:50 Ray was right, he is getting his ass kicked for forgetting his library card.
We love Daler Mehndi.
Tunak Tunak Tun will always be relevant.
This game is soo damn good. I think this, Stardew Valley and outer wilds are genuine masterpieces and i am so glad that indie devs are making such interesting games; honestly, thank god for the indie devs for keeping gaming interesting. (cos the big studios sure don't like taking risks anymore)
54:02 🤣 Yuuup, that tracks!
Yes
33:33 made me realize im apparently old, because i get the reference
I 100 percented this game. 22 minutes into this video, I found out there was a hidden costume area.....? lol
I for one am a Crabbit
I get the reference, but which color are you? Partial to green myself. 33:33
33:10 I'm in my mid 20s and don't get the reference. Ray confirmed old.
Thumbs up for understanding the reference.
You can parry in this game??? How did I miss that 😂
Tunuk Tunuk Tun Tunuk Tunuk Tun Tunuk Tunuk Tun Da Da Da
Tunic is a fucking masterpiece
The lines Mason!!
side not I also just noticed that every time you come across those little white flowers it's a secret
side side note pg 54 is an explanation of how to translate the symbols into english
Crabbo, 100%
Ray's reaction to the puzzles he didn't realise were there until later gives me laughs
Remember this game lost to the Cat game!! Because Cat!!
So just a heads up did you notice green blue and red symbolizes something?
The barriers for the mom you magic stamina and health...
You see the theme? Power, courage, wisdom.
Gameplay actually reminds me of Fez from years ago
Only the creator didn't have a fit and quit making games.
9:10. Oof. I feel that. I turned 30 in December.
I turned 30 in January, and he was definitely right!
Not-so-friendly reminder that people voted for Stray over this game for Game of the Year
Phenomenal game! This is really fun and interesting :)
@33:08 I got the reference, Dad
its makes me sad that ray knows the metal gear 3 ladder meme but hasnt streamed any metal gear solid ; - ;
"Dude imagine paying for games in 2022"
Imagine paying Microsoft to play the game instead of the developer lol
We're all Crabbits here YT. I'll be your pal 🙂
And yet stray won best indie game >:[
I too, am old AF so I got the reference.
I'm older than Ray and I don't get it.
Well, it's too bad you didn't break out the note paper and make a serious effort to solve some of those end-game puzzles yourself. I think Tunic does a better job than any other game out there at making almost anyone want to get into that stuff. But hey, if it's not for you, it's not for you, and I'm really glad you were able to appreciate the genius design and get your mind blown even just looking up how you were supposed to do it.
Jesus the chat just spoiled everything, that was so underwhelming!
as for other great indie games that were on game pass play some good old outer wilds
Glad he enjoyed it. I thought it was alright but not great, just due to the loose controls. Some tweaks to combat would've made it way better gameplay wise. Otherwise, I enjoyed everything else.
I recently finished tunic and each puzzle blew my mind. I also take pride in saying I only used a guide a handful of times.
Woo, comfort content while I recover from food poisoning 😅
Sidenote: renew my membership too, since I have a couple of quid spare for once!
