I apologize in advance if this counts as "backseat gaming" OR if you already knew this, but I wanted to ask: Did you know you can flee from random encounters? You mentioned you're recording this in October so you might've already gotten past this section. I'm not saying you should or telling you to flee any battles, I'm just curious if you are aware of that option since I don't think I've ever seen you flee a battle. (If I remember correctly)

Thanks for mentioning me haha, and its no problem. I forgot how freakin' crazy and creepy Hojo's first transformation is, haven't seen it in a while! I do think the design looks cool in a way at the same time. Also, I noticed your playlist link in the video description is linked to a different game! :O

Seems like you picked up the Reference gimmick a lot faster than you did Eat. Also on the special level where it displays as ASCII symbols, there is a setting to toggle that view. There's the default view that most levels are in, there's a windowed view where instead of having 1 screen follow the player each box takes up part of the screen as a sort of Window, and then the third view is the ASCII view where the various rooms are also separated into various parts of the screen just like the windowed view, but displayed as the text symbols. This means you could technically toggle to a different view for that level, or you could even play the whole game as the ASCII symbols if you really wanted to (very clearly doing important work and not playing video games). There's also other settings such as toggling different color palettes, or playing with a grid. I played Patrick Parabox with the grid enabled because I found it helpful (especially with getting a sense of the dimensions of the Empty squares) and didn't seem at all out of place with the blockiness of the style, as opposed to the grid in Baba is You which feels more jarring to the wobbly sketch style (though helpful in the game editor).

That was a lot of overthinking trying to get in the “flag is win” room after you transformed the walls into flag. 😂

Well, that is certainly a solution to "Ultimate Maze". Once in the "Flag is Win" room you could also gone above the key to transform the walls into key, and then push the key that's there to make "Flag is Win". Since the keys are push you can just push them out of the way and get to the flag without it transforming. You ended up thinking that transforming the walls into keys was wrong an backed out of that direction, but in the end found another way with taking advantage of the "flag on text is you" to move the flag out from the corner and transformed the walls into flags. Also the reason why there is the rule "flag on text is you" is because you wouldn't otherwise win stepping onto the flag since "lonely text is you", meaning when the text steps on the flag it wouldn't win since it is no longer lonely and thus not you. And yeah, despite having the "Level" text, Ultimate Maze does not need to be transformed into an object for the map, even though it technically is possible to do so messing with the texts on the sides. I remember watching a let's player go through a whole lotta trouble to transform it into a flag, but if you take a look in the map you'll notice there aren't any rules regarding flag, so ultimately the flag wasn't able to do anything.

So I'm guessing you're further ahead than this recording, but hopefully it clicked what the "eat" gimmick was, getting A into B not by pushing A directly into B, but instead by pushing B to A such that B "eats" A, seemed like you got the hang of it/more of an intuition of it as you got further along. Also a funny thing about the recursive boxes, in some levels it is possible to push a level out of itself, resulting in an infinity paradox box.

Man, those recursive puzzles hurt my brain!

In case you haven't already solved them on your own. In Security Check, you should learn from the levels between it and VIP Area. And in Ultimate Maze, you will have to transform something into something eventually, you just have to decide what and when. Also, technically that level can be transformed with "Level" text, but it both requires a lot of extremely specific moves and is completely unnecessary for solving the overworld.

I could not beat this boss the first time I played. Unfortunately I gave up and used the built in "Character Booster", that's part of the ports of this game, so I could continue the story.

Cloud is back! We're so back! I love that plot twist. It was mindblowing on my first playthrough!

The learning curve was so nice an gradual... until there were two boxes. Then it just spiked upward. Nice puzzle solving! I liked the part where your set up exploded :)

hecks yeah! off to a great start. The puzzles and difficulty progression in Patrick's Parabox does appear to be a lot more tame when compared to Baba Is You. Especially since the goals are more laid out and solving them involves more of the traditional Sokoban-y block pushing puzzle-design as opposed to the rule manipulation found in Baba is You. Though the entering other boxes and recursion twist does spice things up very interestingly. I'd assume there isn't zoom controls for controller because on Mouse you click specifically which box to zoom in on, having that box be the level frame to let you peer inside of it more closely (as if you'd entered in it). And given there can be multiple of those boxes with spaces inside them, it's possible to have multiple options to pick which to zoom in on. You can even repeatedly left/right click on the recursive boxes that contain themselves to repeatedly zoom in/out.

On my first playthrough, the moment at 9:00 when Cloud wasn't in the photograph blew my mind! Also the events afterwards are pretty crazy haha. It was cool to see your reaction to these moments.

oops, was meaning to give a hint last video but forgot to, but you ended up getting it already pretty quickly. Also hope you get better. I've still been evading Covid because I don't want to have it in conjunction with Crohn's, which I believe has me as considered immunocompromised. Anyways, VIP Area is a tough one for me, and one I'm still not entirely sure how to express the solution for, because even if you know the objective, the execution is still pretty difficult, that honestly it felt like I was just strangling the level until something works out. I will say, that making "Keke is not Stop" would be redundant at you'd be breaking the "Keke is Stop" statement anyways to make that, and also by making "Not Keke is Stop" you also disable the "Keke is Stop" rule that way too, so really the obstacle then becomes the "Keke is Defeat". You did have the idea that getting a rock in the nook could be used to push text up and out if you could push the sentence left, but the one Keke there is in the way. It will help to recall the trick from Prison/Dungeon way back in world 2, where you had to break a "Wall is Stop" statement that was written against a wall. However, it is after you accomplish this where the real tedium of the level reveals itself, which for now I'll just say, Good Luck.

Okay I'm at the end of this episode. Some interesting choices you made here :) I'm already making a prediction of who you're gonna end up with at the Gold Saucer, but it will depend on whether you continue making all the wrong choices with both Tifa and Aerith, lol. Don't spoil it though! I'll find out who asked your Cloud out eventually. ;)

Your latest upload of this just found its way into my recommended's, so I'm here on ep 1 to start from the beginning. :) It's always great to find a new player encountering this story for the first time, and doubly rare to find one who hasn't been spoiled on anything that happens. I hope you've been enjoying it so far, and that the Steam version is treating you well - it has issues, as you may or may not have already discovered. I've only been watching for a few minutes but I'm already enjoying this, so expect to see me commenting again on later episodes when I get to them. If I don't catch up by the time you finish the game, then I'll just wish you good luck now in kicking Sephy's butt!

Biggest clutch ever

KICK HIS ASS!!

Hi! I just wanted to let you know that the footage and audio gets cut off at 43:52

The plot thickens! I love the lighthearted moments in this game. As well as the CG cutscenes, I think they're extremely impressive for 1997 and I still enjoy watching them today. Also... 35:34 "Planet Juice" lol

My usual solution for Hazel Den involved waiting next to a flag and pushing Rock/Skull off it when they stacked together. Then using those stacked words to make them Push permanently. Although your way is the same it its core, I think it looks more fun!

You solved Castle Disaster in a very smart way. I just left WIN where it was and made wall is you, then maneuvered the walls using the trees until I got the text separate from the walls and could use a few separated walls to form baba is win.

Ooo, this game looks fun! I know I’m a bit late to the party here, but I’m excited to watch you play!

I'm eating a late dinner and just started watching this episode. Another FFVII weekend comes to a close, thanks for uploading! 😎👍

2:20 just so you know, in the current version, there are 231 total levels in the main game.

its painfull when you play it for first time, but when you discover its just get through the 4 mini zones, and figth with the boss, it gets kinda easy.

Great to see someone playing this blind for the first time It's a hell of a good story

You brought up the game Tunic, and it reminded me of another Zelda-esque game that actually releases today! Its called, "The Plucky Squire". It definitely caught my eye.

I had a bit of trouble with the marching section my first time, I got a low rating lol

You ever played ff7 before? Such an amazing game

Yo! This video was on my recommended. I'm a huge Final Fantasy VII fan! I can't wait to see your reaction to the rest of the story!!

Man, don't we wish we can have abs as hard as this one? But anyways, yeah watching the vid just waiting for you to realize that you can't bring things over into the flag room, and then for you to also realize the belts only shift things over one space without something being Move. This is a bit of a tricky one, especially compared to the previous two. Though I will confirm that the AB text does work vertically, just like how the BA text from the previous level also worked vertically. It actually is possible to get all 5 belts out, but the solution is still possible with 4.

On Scale you don't actually have to completely worry about trying to not end up to the left of Skull, considering "Not Rock is Not You" stops the Skull anyways, letting you get back to the right of it again. What you can't recover from is the Skull going too far right that is breaks the win statement. This one has multiple solutions, as you also could've formed "Baba is You" sharing the same YOU text instead of turning Baba into a rock. Another method doesn't even need the "Not Rock is Not You" sentence, with enough finessing of breaking and remaking YOU statements, it is possible to work your way spacing things apart horizontally enough to sink the water and get the flag out. For Lunar Gallery it seem what was intended is that you are to melt the skulls to get the letter "T" out to then make "Not Baba is Push" to push the walls, but I guess it wasn't considered that you could still make that same sentence flush against the floor like you did without having to melt the skulls. So you managed to solve it while bypassing a step. @29:47 This is another instance where the text shimmying technique could move the text down more efficiently. Where instead of taking the text over and circling around to the other side, you just push the same type of text through the statement to the other side. It can be difficult when unaccustomed to the technique to recognize when you can apply it since inclination makes it feel as though you are breaking the sentence, but since the text being supplemented in is the same or otherwise keeps you alive, it's safe to do and keeps you on one side. With practice one can move sentences down rows/columns pretty quickly with this technique, and it can also work in corridors too narrow to let you circle around.

First! ;) Very enjoyable watching you play. Game is amazing as well. Looking forward to more videos!

Great job making it this far! I’m also impressed nobody spoiled it for you.

It’s amazing that no one spoiled it to you about it after a year. Hahaha! I guess you can say that a map is a level, and a level is a map.

the game has just begun

Keep grinding bro!

Glad to see you finish the epilogue

Are you ever planning on doing a true pacifist run? There is a ton more content, new areas and bosses if you correctly befriend everyone. And no, you aren’t locked out or anything just because you didn’t spare flowey the first time, you can in fact still do it from this run without having to do the rest of the game again. You just have to walk back to Papyrus’s house and do the papyrus hangout, then do the Undyne hangout, then talk to Alphys and the new content will begin.

You actually can die during the omega flowey fight, VERY impressive that you didn’t die even once, you’re the only youtuber I’ve seen who’s done it

27:12 that’s because that’s actually where Toby Fox made the sound for his voice from.

'If only there was a way to get interest on that' Funny you should say that, actually... because there IS a way to get interest. Unsure if you'll discover that since I know you dont end up using the bank much but we'll see

Yessir!! Whens the next live stream?

"I need like, a geo bank." The game has anticipated this need xD

Starting to get towards the meta-game, we got a baba on da map. It is worth noting that while the level is transformed into a baba, it is still a level, but now it can move around. In order to enter levels you need the cursor to get there, which can only travel on paths and levels. Also you can tell you've beaten a transformed level as it will have a pink outline (18:28). 2:53 you can simplify/speed up this shimmying process by pushing the "is" through the other "is" instead of taking it over and around to the other side. 7:08 the reason why the level gets destroyed is because there is "Wall is defeat" as well as "Door is defeat", so when the level becomes "You" it gets defeated by these objects as they are in contact with the level. As for "Hostile Environment", it is worth noting that "Level is Defeat" doesn't destroy the level, it simply makes the level deadly to anything that is "You" while the level is defeat. Consider what you can do with "Has" and "Weak", as well as utilizing "Move".

I need to play this game again..

I feel bad that you didn't find the shortcut and/or the bench that's right below the Hornet arena. That was a long walk between your bench and the arena. xD
