Thumper is a game about the rabbit from Bambi in a giant space beetle facing demonic triangles, starfish, other weird things, and occasionally Satan himself.
Don’t forget circle man with weird spiky things on him and he has no more money for his taxes so he decided to rule the universe but failed because somehow this beetle killed you lol
I once saw a guy in a Runner3 review complaining that it was bad because it was too easy compared to this. Said he was the 6th best player in the world. I didn't want to make an account for one comment, so if any of you know him, tell him he's an ass. Good video, by the way. No annoying intro, good gameplay, straight to the point.
They really should add a Boss Rush mode unlocked by completing the entire game with all the bosses in a row. And a Boss Rush+ mode for those who have mastered New Game+.
When I first played this game, I remember the Level 8-10 ( 23:40 ) Boss was the only boss that kinda freaked me out a bit just because of how threatening it us when it gets close to the camera. It became one of my favorites.
18:23 is my all time favorite! I love the beat, and it’s so interesting that I keeps me going back to my mind palace! I’d love to make an animated series from some of my stories... :,3
My favorite boss design goes to the 8-10 boss. (the starfish thing) Edit: Scratch that, my favorite boss design goes to... all of them, actually. They're all wacky and weird in their own way. Like the 3-12 boss, that's just two, gigantic, terrifying, rings. Or the 7-7 boss, that's a robot(?) that changes the arena it's in. I could literally go on forever about the bosses' designs, but I'm too lazy for that. And plus, you wouldn't want to read a whole word-wall just about the bosses' designs.
I liked that the Level ∞ boss distorts most beats, sounds, and the tempo of the... well, everything (except for that sweet bass thump). I'm tempted to think philosophically about being in a distorted continuum indefinitely...
I felt like they needed names. Here’s what I came up with: All instances of triangle w/tentacles: Tutorial Boss 1-14: Checkpoint Boss 1-Omega: Faithless Soul 2-13: Sunflower Boss 2-Omega: Lustful Soul 3-12: Scoliosis Boss 3-Omega: Gluttonous Soul 4-11: Millipede Boss 4-Omega: Avaricious Soul 5-11: Galaxy Boss 5-Omega: Wrathful Soul 6-9: Particle Effect Boss 6-Omega: Irrational Soul 7-7: Track Twister Boss 7-Omega: Violent Soul 8-10: Starfish Boss 8-Omega: Deceptive Soul 9-8: Snowflake Boss 9-Omega: Treacherous Soul Infinity: Fate Any thoughts? As a side note, if you consider 9-27 to be a boss, I’d call it “The Final Trial.”
Figured I would post my own entry, a year late Their "real names" are left as their numbers, letting them feel as abstract as they look, followed by "epithets" One-Seven - "Angel" One-Fourteen - "Horizon" Omega 1 Two-Thirteen - "Speaker" Omega 2 Three-Twelve - "Dreamer" Omega 3 Four-Eleven - "Reaper" Omega 4 Five-Eleven - "Mouth" Omega 5 Six-Nine - "Eye" Omega 6 Seven-Seven - "Heart" Omega 7 Eight-Ten - "Brain" Omega 8 Nine-Eight - "Soul" Omega 9 All Omega bosses are considered the same, called, predictably, "Head" Infinity - "Womb"
Not sure if you found out yet, but all of the Omega bosses are the same entity and it has a name, its "Crakhed". I would think about giving it titles since it alludes to the actual final boss giving it more and more power until you beat it for real in stage 9, you even see parts sticking out of him that look exactly like it.
I’m surprised the battle at 13:36 was just against that basic square Gate Guardian-thing and not that horrific gargantuan Hell-Snake thing behind it that kept spawning little snakes. Were those snakes pretending to be parts of the rail?
Zuiryn Mapper Level 1: I’m a head Level 2: I have spikes Level 3: more spikes Lvl4: Moar spikes Lvl 5: MOAR SPIKES Lvl 6-7:Just moar spikes Lvl 8: Too much spikes and three eyes Lvl 9: HUGE SPIKES AND SIX EYES
Question: What's the point of the warning at 19:14? It's not like "new players" can just skip to this boss from the beginning of the game to try it out. And by the time you've beaten all the levels necessary to reach that point, you won't be a new player anymore.
Favourite one is 7-7 or 20:57, just a tense beat amazing in vr and I like the boss how it has lights on it, if you’ve never played before, a boss is easy to complete quite fun but after you’ll think wtf was that I just killed
Took me a good 20 tries. It was annoying because the first three sections are so easy, you have little opportunity to practice. Beat the final boss on my 10th attempt though, the slow down effect didn't bother me to much.
@@alwayrember193 hey, necroposting again you're gonna need like a day worth of practice, its actually not that hard to get back into it. Infinity is pain though, it took me a good bit to beat but only because it screws up how the actual game plays. I won't tell you how the gimmick works cause spoilers, but you'll be missing a lot more jumps
*Looks at level 9's final boss* I'm not getting anywhere near that thing anytime soon.....I finally finished level 4's final today after months of not touching it
How do you make your character fly for so long? I can't ever do it for more than a few seconds, and also how do you make it fly round the sharp corners as mine just drops when I slide round them? Sorry if I worded that wrong, Btw I play on PC.
To fly around turns, you need to execute them perfectly while flying. Once this happens, you will fly indefinitely. Another way to fly indefinitely is to do a double jump. Level 6-1 teaches this, so check out my runthrough on Level 6 for visual advice there.
Not going to lie this game is a surreal experience, it's like the bosses are something what mere humans like us were never MENT to seem at like the edges of the cosmos, entities beyond our understanding of the universe.
*QUESTION:* What's the point of the warning at 19:14? It's not like "new players" can just skip to this boss from the beginning of the game to try it out. And by the time you've beaten all the levels necessary to reach that point, you won't be a new player anymore. So whom does this apply to?
Because most people when playing lvl6 are not very used to the game's mechanics yet. So it will take them a lot of trial and errors before actually destroying the boss.
I also wonder how tf have we been able to beat lvl 9-27 ??? It goes so fast! I think its not really about seeing whats coming at you but rather about reflexes
When i first got to Final Boss 1 I was first like “lol funny head.” But when i got to Final Boss 9 I was like “ wtf is this abomination?!?” I honestly love this game a lot.
lmao same. I let my friends watch me play this game and every time I get to the final boss we’re all just like “SHOW US THE FACE.” and proceed to go absolutely wild when we see it. The hype in the room is crazy lmao.
kind of annoying how the flying and video game sounds interfere with the actual music. Every time I hear a cool beat and rhythm it gets cut off by a vweeeeee! because you flew into the air and all.
Also a little sad knowing he probably seen and tried everything the game has to offer and now since he's so good at the game there's no more challenge for him and thus quit playing the game.
Like, how the actual fuck are you supposed to see what you're doing????? This is insane? I appreciate your hard work though. It probably took a lot of effort. ☺😆
How narrow is the timing to "slam" on the beats? I feel like whenever I do so, the track pulses but there's never a deep bass sound or a short pause, sometimes I can't even stay flying as long as you did in the video. Unless the timing is like a sweet spot?
Hello! To fly for an indefinite period of time, you need to either: 1. Execute a perfect turn while in the air. 2. Double jump. What I like to do, I just jump on every thump, it doesn't matter, and doing so on bosses will award more points, than just slamming the second one. Is your multiplier at 1x? If so, you won't be able to hear a deep bass sound/hitstop, and you won't be able to light up other notes. There's no unusual timing between slamming and normal "thumping". It might be helpful sending me vid of your problem to see what I can do. Hope this helps!

Holy shit this game is so lucid and beautiful.
I’m late to this blog. This game intrigues me!
When I first played this game, I remember the Level 8-10 ( 23:40 ) Boss was the only boss that kinda freaked me out a bit just because of how threatening it us when it gets close to the camera. It became one of my favorites.
I felt the same way! Very intimidating, like it actually showed emotion and was like “you’re beating me, not fair!”😂such an underrated game❤️
I was scared of the game when it was on the vr world in ps vr i was soo nervous of the demo until i found out its just a great rhythm game
If NASA would send this vid into outa space II bet they will declare us war within 24 hours.
18:23 is my all time favorite! I love the beat, and it’s so interesting that I keeps me going back to my mind palace! I’d love to make an animated series from some of my stories... :,3
My favorite boss design goes to the 8-10 boss. (the starfish thing)
Edit: Scratch that, my favorite boss design goes to... all of them, actually. They're all wacky and weird in their own way. Like the 3-12 boss, that's just two, gigantic, terrifying, rings. Or the 7-7 boss, that's a robot(?) that changes the arena it's in.
I could literally go on forever about the bosses' designs, but I'm too lazy for that. And plus, you wouldn't want to read a whole word-wall just about the bosses' designs.
