Development process of this game: LET'S MAKE A GAME ABOUT FIRE! *Five years later* All we have is amazing fire physics... Just slap a story on it and BURN SHIIIIIIIIIT!
It really isn't just about anti-consumerism. SPOILERS AHEAD!! When sugar plumps continues to talk to the player she mentions stuff like being separated by a simple wall and yet they rarely talk. He never turns around even when the house next door explodes. This was brought up by someone else but the snow isn't snow. It's ash, and by trying to stay warm and keep out the cold they are only adding to it. I could go on but I know you all live lives. Just one last thing. The mindless aspect of it is on purpose. We do these things for entertainment and they really mean nothing in the end. Sorry about that, rant over
don't apologise, i think you're spot on! i think Dans expectation of this game from World Of Goo hazed his experience with this one. I hope nowadays he has a better expectation subversion, because i've mostly decided what games i've played based on Dans reviews and usually he is right, but I think he got this game quite wrong
you're supposed to burn the same things if you buy the same thing like 3 times you can get it without re-stock times ARE YOU SAYING YOU DON'T WANT 30 SENTIENT MARSHMELLOWS SCREAMING IN AGONY FOR THAT BRIEF BEAUTIFUL SECOND!?
2:23 I always expect him to do the same voice that Lewis did when Yogscast Lewis & Simon played through this game as a series back, Jesus, almost a decade ago now
A game whose gameplay is mostly consisted of waiting around for things to happen all of the time with tons of boredom during that time? Are we talking about Little Inferno or Payday: The Heist?
Bux_ payday the heist, the map i have played you drill a thing, then thermite a thing (if you want you can put like 5 cans of thermite to speed it up) then get the money, then get out, payday 2, what ive seen is maps WITH 10 DRILL POSITIONS!!!!!!
This game is brilliant if you understand the ideas that it puts forward. SPOILERS AHEAD! BEWARE! Ok, so everyone has a massive fire burning in their house, which is pouring out greenhouse gases, which is adding to the cloud layer above the city, which is what is causing the snow, which is also ash, to fall. They also put the idea of, we are leaving our problems alone, and just putting a wall between us and it. Eventually, it will stop working, and we won't be able to do anything to stop it, but who cares, we get to do nothing for the time being, which is exactly what's happening right now. We know that we are massively polluting the world, but our future generations can deal with that. I won't spoil anything else, but this game brings the ideas out under the microscope, and picks then apart.
James Day I love Dan, he's harsh on a lot of good games, but that's why I love him, he actually says what he really thinks. Still, he's harsh sometimes - he gets bored with games in a way that someone who does it for a living does I guess.
Its not that annoying actually because not only can you burn other things in the meantime but you can also watch videos and stuff. Plus I got mine in a bundle so it was pretty much free
I honestly didn't anyone missed the message there since it's pretty Damn obvious, so it's condescending of you to think that he didn't like the game because he didn't understand it. You may very well have deep comprehension of the ideas involve and still think little of the game itself because of its shortcomings in terms of game mechanics. Especially when the symbolisms you mention is so heavy-handed in your face that it doesn't really do good job of delivering on its main premise.
I love this game--I bought it for my tablet, which has a touch screen, I paid $3, and I USE THE STAMPS to make items arrive quicker. I think the touch screen actually makes a difference, the game feels tactile in a way others don't. I found it somehow created a sense of relaxation and unease at the same time. This game really messed with my mind towards the end and at one point I really had to force myself to open the letters, because I was nervous about what was in them. The humor reminded me of Portal, oddly, it has that "everything's going to kill you" vibe, very dark, but I never felt it was too heavy handed.
I love Dan but listen, I just finished this game. The ending is INSANE. The gameplay DOES get boring and repetitive but the ending is worth it. It opens up your eyes. Not gonna spoil it but Trust me, if you're willing to pay $15 and hold on until the end (took me 3 hours of gameplay to complete it) the ending is worth it. Blew me out of the water. Very few games have done this. Just..wow.
There's actually a fair bit more to it than just anti-consumerism. Without spoiling anything I think ignoring our problems until they are too big to overcome might be one of the main themes.
Joel Törnlund Okay, so consumerism is the whole of advertising, purchasing, collecting, marketing, collecting, etc. Say, Putting ads up before youtube videos. A product of consumerism getting in the way of entertainment (even if it is necessary for cash). "Anti" basically means opposite or negative, so it's against the whole corporate cheapening of our creative properties.
I beg to differ. Not every Game needs to have a... OBJECTIVE. or.. GOAL. This game is just for Shits and giggles, Enjoy the gameplay, and also, This game isn't for everyone. You need to understand and enjoy the meaning and elements and everything to this game. "Gotta think outside the box" kinda thing. Its a brilliant game. Just for, like I said, shits and giggles. Its just to simply enjoy yourself. Great Video By the way! Not Hating or Criticizing your Opinions. Just some people rely on whatever people say on the internet or anywhere, therefore getting the wrong idea. Just wanna kinda make it clear this game isn't BAD. Thats all. Again. Wonderful Video. Like always! - Kai
Sonata Dusk heat can rise indefinitely meaning it is possible the only the only time when there is a limit is when you reach complete frozen then the particles cannot move at all but I bet you never even had chemistry class huh?
This is hard for me to watch because I personally love little inferno (I like fire) Everyone has there opinion I like it so I can't watch someone talk about the badly but I won't dislike or like Still a Nerd
A opinion can't be wrong. Thus, the definition of the word opinion. You can have your own opinion, and so can he. He didn't say that it was a fact that it was horrible. Its his opinion so if you don't like his opinion do me and the comment section a favor and don't watch this video.
How dare you. So rude and ignorant. I was just correcting you. You don't have to be so rude and upset. If you would please have some decency I would be grateful.
Having never seen more of the story than this (I have the attention span of a squirrel with ADD...), I saw the snow and heard "Just stay near your fire and burn all of your toys" and immediately thought "oh... oh...... OH......... well shit." Day After Tomorrow anybody?
Another theme of this it seems is to question what you've been told. The guy in the trailer tells them to burn their stuff and they don't question it and then everything goes wrong.
Remember back in the day when this was the most interesting game on the internet? Man, the good old days
Yeah I used to watch Jacksepticeyes playthrough of it!
@@MichaelJones456 Leeetlee Infernoo.
Honestly 10 years later and still nothing like this game. I consider it one of my top of all time.
Remember when setting a school buds on fire was in an indie game 😂
back in the good old days where nerd cubed didnt know his computer fan was blearing in the background.
it's soothing for some reason
he did know xD this was before he got Sasha:D
rip sashoosha
I like to call this period, the "whirr" era.
MMMMMHHHHHHHHHHH
ah, going back years to when Dan's computer sounded like a vacuum cleaner , such nostalgia

he flung the raccoon to space. Is this Rocket Raccoon's origin story
ouch
Poor trash panda...
you're supposed to burn the same things
if you buy the same thing like 3 times you can get it without re-stock times
ARE YOU SAYING YOU DON'T WANT 30 SENTIENT MARSHMELLOWS SCREAMING IN AGONY FOR THAT BRIEF BEAUTIFUL SECOND!?
Old Burny face. An ancestor of Bernie McBurnerson, I'd imagine.
I think so as well
Hamish Kane and son of Burnie Burns
Bernie Burns is the so of Barney

Are we talking about Little Inferno or Payday: The Heist?
payday the heist is more making giant riot cops cry by pointing a shotgun at them and yelling GET DOWN and HANDCUFF YOURSELF!
shaun03a You're mistaking Payday: The Heist with Payday 2
Green Tron No trust me, Payday the heist is 10x worst than payday 2 when it comes to waiting.
Bux_ payday the heist, the map i have played you drill a thing, then thermite a thing (if you want you can put like 5 cans of thermite to speed it up) then get the money, then get out,
payday 2, what ive seen is maps WITH 10 DRILL POSITIONS!!!!!!
+PHANTOMCOWGIRL or you can just lockpick safes =\
It said it burns at 100,000,000 degrees. Nuclear fusion happens at lower temperatures.
coming back to this after ive played thru the story like..2-3 times now? and have all but one non-dlc achievement is fun
This game is brilliant if you understand the ideas that it puts forward. SPOILERS AHEAD! BEWARE!

Exactly, he's being too harsh with this game and also the puzzles towards the end do become much more challenging. Plus the end was a reward.

Don't want to sound like I'm being mean and stuff but I just want to say that he is right about the real time thing, that would annoy me so much :/

NerdCubed has the best comment community i have seen so far. Good on you, Dan.
God I was so young, this is giving me an overwhelming amount of nostalgia, it’s crazy to think I was 8 when this video came out
"Do you like toys?" "YAH!" "you know whats more fun than PLAYING wit toys?" "PROSTITUTES!" , "Setting them on fire!" (HAHAHAHAAHHAHAHA)
man... he hates this game so much that he compared it with a facebook game
I love this game--I bought it for my tablet, which has a touch screen, I paid $3, and I USE THE STAMPS to make items arrive quicker.

is it just me or is that trailer video just a little bit fucked up
Neither, it was VERY fucked up.
Blonde Dragon Yep
The trailer kinda gives up the end but no spoilers and uber fucked up
Here in 2020... the nostalgia
cooper is that you?
Dr. Kaii ?
Nerdcubed:*Mentions Pyro*
Me:*Screeches and tackles computer*
I do not get it
+Cooldude190403 I think it's a team fortress reference
+Cooldude190403 Pyrocynical...
Simon Lau I mean him and TF2
Cry Smithz Ohh...
that ending..holy shit.
I love Dan but listen, I just finished this game.
The ending is INSANE.
The gameplay DOES get boring and repetitive but the ending is worth it.
It opens up your eyes. Not gonna spoil it but
Trust me, if you're willing to pay $15 and hold on until the end (took me 3 hours of gameplay to complete it) the ending is worth it.
Blew me out of the water.
Very few games have done this.
Just..wow.
Because symbolism!
Cheaper on mobile.
He SAYS the ending was fantastic. Pretty early in the video, too.
u were right its worth to play it to the end.
all you out there dont watch ending on youtube go and play it.
Yeah I don't even remember the end after playing through it several times, so... yeah... worth it? -_-
There's actually a fair bit more to it than just anti-consumerism. Without spoiling anything I think ignoring our problems until they are too big to overcome might be one of the main themes.
What does anti-consumerism even mean?
Joel Törnlund Okay, so consumerism is the whole of advertising, purchasing, collecting, marketing, collecting, etc. Say, Putting ads up before youtube videos. A product of consumerism getting in the way of entertainment (even if it is necessary for cash). "Anti" basically means opposite or negative, so it's against the whole corporate cheapening of our creative properties.
Marcus Tisot Oh, that makes sence. Thanks.
Joel Törnlund *sense. And you're welcome. ^-^
Marcus Tisot Oh sorry, my english isnt the best.
I can only read Sugar Plumps in Yogscast Simons voice 4 her
I respectfully disagree with Dan on this one, as I thought this was a fantastic game. Simple, but with a compelling message and fun gameplay.
Can we talk aboot how this man had a very long constant streak of 1mil views on video and only has 2mil subs
Play for an hour or two?!
I played this game for seven hours straight!
I just enjoy setting fire to the internet with kitten pictures...

i would set fire to most outdated memes like Nyan cat and rage comics
17:50 "Aw, i hope you were gone forever"
Nothing really last forever. Take a drink my friends.
Who’s here now?
"Hello Procrastinators" *goosebumps*
Yoo the nostalgia
who thinks Dadcubed should play this?
Yes!
you DO sound AND look like Moss from the IT crowd :P well, slightly less brown, but still.
In my opinion, he looks like moss, as in the plant. Specifically his hair. With that in mind, though, my locks can be compared to seaweed.
15:41 LOL TIVII AND PAPCARR. BABABABABAAAAAAA

This was an amazing game. It is DEFINITELY worth 14 bucks!
9:24 APAIRA ONOLSORO BAIK...
I thought little inferno was a really enjoyable game
The story is fucking amazing.
I'm come to learn that watching Dan play these games is a lot more fun then actually playing them
they say the fireplace burns at 100 billion degrees... seems legit
Its a big universe anything is possible somewhere
plane263 Not true...
It's impossible for you to not be SUCH A DORK!!!
Sonata Dusk heat can rise indefinitely meaning it is possible the only the only time when there is a limit is when you reach complete frozen then the particles cannot move at all but I bet you never even had chemistry class huh?
plane263 And I bet you never learned what SARCASM IS!!!
I love world of goo!
I enjoy the fact that Dan went out of his way to take a picture, just so he didn't have to burn his logo!
Nerd challenges fill the fireplace with fire
nerd challenges set the fireplace on fire
This is hard for me to watch because I personally love little inferno
(I like fire)
Everyone has there opinion I like it so I can't watch someone talk about the badly but I won't dislike or like
Still a Nerd
Dan's singing really made that song better
spiders that give you money? I wish I liked spiders.
I beat it first try
The best part of this game for me was when I unlocked the laser pointer and instantly became Sid from Toy Story.
17:50-18:00 best ten seconds of my life.
The trailer is creepy
I've seen you before...
Well I do love me some British gaming channels.
Oh god you again
Oh god YOU again
You're not the first person to say that now that I think about it....
A weird but convenient feature is that when you buy an item 3 times, it restocks instantly.
is anyone else watching in 2016 may
Joshua Wallace 1900bc sorry.
Dan a game is for entertainment toys are also for fun

Your opinion of this game is completely and utterly wrong. Sure, the time thing is irritating but it's a great game.
A opinion can't be wrong. Thus, the definition of the word opinion. You can have your own opinion, and so can he. He didn't say that it was a fact that it was horrible. Its his opinion so if you don't like his opinion do me and the comment section a favor and don't watch this video.
Grace Larsne He's still wrong, though. I agree with him on XBoxes and Alienware, but not this. So shut up.
How dare you. So rude and ignorant. I was just correcting you. You don't have to be so rude and upset. If you would please have some decency I would be grateful.
Wow. Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Seriously, why must you keep using petty insults? Act civil for once please.
Grace Larsne Asking someone to act "civil" as it were on the internet is like asking a vegan to eat a steak. If you can't learn that, stay well away.
i cant enjoy this video with him complaining about it every minute.
Having never seen more of the story than this (I have the attention span of a squirrel with ADD...), I saw the snow and heard "Just stay near your fire and burn all of your toys" and immediately thought "oh... oh...... OH......... well shit." Day After Tomorrow anybody?
I remember when i was younger. you could always hear his computer. you cant do that in his newer videos. so nostalgic
The game is currently on the Humble Indie Bundle 8 FYI so you can buy it if you want.
the trailer at the end left a song stuck in my head and emotional scarring
Sounndtrack is absolutely amazing , so awesome
you spin me right round matey right round, like a parrot matey, right round round round
absolutely cacked it
watch from 20:05 till 20:24 at 0.25 speed
you can change the speed at the settings which is two left from full screen
14:05 Berrin de Ba Quong
A game where you burn stuff... I LOVE IT!!!!!!
As he said the end is REALLY GOOD!!! As I've heard from the yogscast from a very long time ago
14:39 SMASHIGOGOBECK
This game isnt made for long gamplay its for having fun burning things without the bad stuff
*nostalgia*
"I don't know why I have massive lag with these letters WHILE RECORDING WITH FRAPS"
I think I found the reason for that Dan.
The IT crowd is one of my favorite showsXD
Nerd Challanges:Set one of everything on fire
I love the ending when it shows their house burning down and them throwing a child into the fire xDDDD
I came back here again just because I found the Little Inferno song stuck in my head :D
It's now at £6.99 on Steam at the moment, and it's not on sale.
Play to the end. It's beautiful.
For those interested this is on the Weekly Humble Bundle now
Dan actually made me get this game because of so awesome he and the game is! :-)
3:15
"That's OK, you can always buy more with your brand new catalog!"
(burns catalog)
I was watching this in an ac'd room, watching this made me feel warm......
Look to your left and see the fire!
actually it's more like $1.50 or around that area because it changes daily for some reason
Ahh those days when Dan lived in a jet engine.
and on this day, I learnt that my favourite youtuber was a pyromaniac.
im so used to hearing all these voices in jack voice
dude despite you calling it a bad game , it seems u had a lot of fun. good job. :D
Another theme of this it seems is to question what you've been told. The guy in the trailer tells them to burn their stuff and they don't question it and then everything goes wrong.
Goddamn, almost a decade ago
I saw your review, picked up the game, and loved it. Thanks for the recommendation.
bringing back the classics again YT well played. these older vids hit different these days, or just me?
Thank you for adding details. I really didn't know the episode :P
BEST MOSS IMPRESSION EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
did anyone notice that the screams at the end are the same as roller coaster tycoon 3?
Your impression of moss is amazing xD
your coffee analogy was pretty good, it got me thinking about appearances hiding what people look for. shit man
if anyone's wondering, the games been reduce to £6.99 on steam
I liked it. I absolutely loved how cheerily dark it was. This is a really bad game with an amazing story, put together wonderfully.
Access now while it's in stock!
Little inferno is actually one of my favorite games ever.
