in the surf mini game on edge, there are easter eggs: 1. go all the way to the left as far as you can and you can become the tentacle monster You'll find an octopus group area on the left (edit: it's a round circle with octopus arms you have to go in there and then you turn into the monster) 2. you can go down the center and get to 3300m you will find a flashing dog. hit him and he hops on the surfboard with you and he gives you immunity for 3 bumps into other surfers or tentacle monsters edit: I found a new code: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, b, a, if you enter this you will became a ninja cat lol
my school actually blocked the dinosaur game. I remember trying it on my Chromebook and it showed asteroids in the air by the dinosaur and said the “administrator disabled the dinosaur game” it was so sad. Was very glad to give the cheap plastic hunk back to my high school at graduation- thing was both trash in build quality and actual functionality
The Chrome dino game was definitely intended for light mode users. The occasional flash from dark to light looks like going from day to night on light mode.
I love surf and the whole story on how surf single handedly improved your office's moral is hilarious and magical. (Edge users rise up. Edging is goated)
I remember being in a high school tech class where to try and avoid having people play games like those you mentioned the prof had a “old retro games Fridays” where we’d spend the first part of class doing a (purposely) small assignment before spending the rest of the period playing a specific old retro game (like ones seen in arcade, think Pac-Man or Galaga or those on old gaming devices such as the Atari). If you played the game at all after it was announced before the “tournament day” (Fridays) then you were disqualified. Whoever got first got added to a list of all of the top players of each game and got to choose the game (out of a list of options) that would be played the next week. On one of those days, the entire school’s wifi was out for the day so instead we ended up playing competitive chrome’s Dino game. Nearing the end of the period there were two or three people who were on an insane streak and over half the class was crowded around their screen watching them duke it out for first.
Your teacher sounds really cool. I can imagine that final Chrome Dino Dino face-off. How did you access the retro games? We're they downloaded roms? On a browser?
It kinda reminds me of one of the minikit mini games of the old lego star wars complete saga game for the nintendo ds, the one with grievous' mono bike thingy

I love Edge Surf, and a fun fact is that it's available on the mobile version as well. It's saved me before when I'm out of the house with no data, just open Edge on my phone and there's a built in game right there. It also turns into skiing in the winter, which I also adore. There's so many details with it and I love it.
my school actually DID block the dinosaur game! we had chromebooks, and if you tried to press space on the no internet screen, it would tell you that it was disabled and show a unique pop-up of the dinosaur getting pelted by meteors
The Chrome and Edge built-in games actually can be disabled with a Active Directory policy. Also, "Let's Surf" is also built in to the Windows 11 OOBE utility only seen after Windows has just been installed on a computer, but the Linux penguin character is replaced with a generic cat.
Funny story. Even though I was using computer labs in school before all of the attempts to block the Java website games, my buddies and I just brought flash drives with all the games we needed on them. Computer by computer we fully installed local clients of Minecraft onto the entire engineering lab computers to play LAN with each other on. Never caught.
I had no idea other browsers even had hidden games. I knew about dino runner, and how some chrome based browsers may swap out the dino for their mascot, but I had no idea there were other games in different browsers. Maybe this is the time that I open edge, and only for that.

Some things to say about Vivaldia: 1- it's not infinite, the game has an end, actually, but, the more you progress, the more difficult it gets. 2- There is a 2nd game, and it is an retro adventure, but only available at Steam. 3- I agree with the controllers, I took a while to realise that i could shoot diagonally, even then, you have to watch your back and where you step. 4- I took 5 days to beat the game, but was a fun (and very difficult) experience.
Firefox gang rise up! This is the first I've heard of the unicorn game but I might as well give it a try. I recall going on holiday to some hotel and there was basically no internet, so all I really had to use as a source of shallow entertainment was the mobile version of Google Dino... for about three days before I was finally allowed to take the Switch outside.
Yes, many of my classmates got viruses looking for new game sites, but if they hadn’t gone and blocked cool math games, we would still be playing that instead of shooters.
Same like it says “the administration of this device has blocked this” or something like that 😭 and the it has the Dino frozen in please with a few meteors
Chrome Dino is actually blocked now days, as it says "The Dino Game is blocked by administrators," showing the death sprite and some asteroids in the background
Actually my school district banned the dinosaur game somehow, now if you press the space bar without internet connection the picture of the dinosaur with have 3 meteors and a shocked dinosaur, I have no clue how but they did

@@Romashka_Sov It’s specifically a chrome flag for the Dino game, usually other means are used for game websites, usually extensions and internet filters.

Tips for surf: when pursued by the sea monsters, weave in between obstacles or use a boost if none are near. Ocotpi can get stuck on obstacles too and will stop chasing you.
@@SodaCrab yeah! if you play the game my name should pop up at the start of it you can find my name in the credits of paperball as a tester as well, that's how i actually found out about your channel actually!
@@bandannadoo yeah! both the initial gameplay concept and the visuals came from how those urban legends described polybius, with fast paced tempest-like gameplay where you avoid obstacles, all the while being blasted with disorienting colors and geometric shapes. the only thing i wasn't able to include was the puzzle element, which imo didn't work well in the end i also combined the words "opera" with "polybius" for the name of the game lol
In the edge surfers game I discovered (in school of course) that if you start going left from the start, you will eventualy find a circle of krakens and that will turn you into one and you become invincible. At least thats how I remember it. Might be a bit different
I use Vivaldi and its a pretty good browser. Its an ungoogled Chrome with some UI tweaks. It was made by the original Opera team, not the business that yoinked the named for Opera GX. I mean I should probably just use Firefox but. I'm not. But yeah, its game is bad.
Fun fact! Opera GX has TWO browser games! That’s right TWO! The catch is, is that the second game is (I’m pretty sure) exclusively on the mobile version of the browser. What is the game? I’ll let you find out for yourself!
It’s available in the store but it may be skill issue but it sucks with a keyboard (mabye connect a controller to your computer) but it should be ranked by its mobile experience
My school's computers had everything blocked basically even the dinosaur game. We eventually figured out VPNs and when they disabled extensions, we accessed the internet by going onto zoom and clicking "log in with google" then Google, and everything was oddly unblocked.
(not so) fun fact: schools can and do block these built in games, there is even a special screen for when you try to play the dinosaur game on a school computer
Surf looks like freeski if they split slaleming from 'eventually the yeti eats you. there is no escape from the yeti. it will come.' as a metaphor for mortality and made two modes for it (and made the yeti outrunnable). Which... Makes it more fully featured than an actual game. (Personally, in my IT classes? We played the flight sim built into excel)
I feel very sad for people that didn't grow with web games, while they are weird things in this kind of genre, just like with flash games there are also marvelous content to find and entertain yourself with, especially for a kid, it's very weird not seeing today's people not getting that much on such an old kind of genre.

But I'll never forget that short period of time that you were actually the lesser of 3 evils for once.
I dont hate edge. I dont even hate how its the defult or how its hard to uninstall, good backup to make sure in a worse case senerio you dont lose option to use browser in general. What i hate is Microsoft begging and pleeding for you to use it and to not switch with popups and literal biolt in serch results whenever you search for another browser
I remember playing games on school computers. And being sad when my favorite sites became blocked…… then happy again when I was able to completely disable the schools filter for only me and teaching everyone how to do it.
The IT at my school actually learned how to block the chrome dinosaur game, that day was when I knew I hated being under the foot of someone else. That day radicalized me
the thing with edge surf, I discovered is that in endless mod, if you got left for a while, you can com across a "power-up" that just makes you invincible. you can then afk and get the highest score you want
in our elementary school we had specific free time activities, one of them being computer time, which was literally just like an hour or two of being allowed to play in browser games and nothing more
i love the edge surf game. i only found it because i was helping my dad set up his computer. it had an insanely long wait time but the one thing it let us do was edge surf. we had so much fun lol
This videos a little older now with many comments, but this reminded me of being able to play snake and pacman on internet explorer back in like 2010. i believe there was a dropdown next to the search bar where you could select a few games to play. its been so long that i cant remember exact details, but i was so hype to open my laptop and play those games as a kid
the Sonic Riders music over Microsoft Surf is funny. they are both extreme boarding games yes, but that's like it for connections. just find it funny. enjoy the user interaction boost
My phone has an included browser game as well. When I browse something on Google without the Internet, I get a little cloud holding an umbrella, works like flappy bird.
I'm glad microsoft edge included the ability to play as a penguin. It's good to be reminded that I could switch to linux at any time.

I dont hate edge. I dont even hate how its the defult or how its hard to uninstall, good backup to make sure in a worse case senerio you dont lose option to use browser in general. What i hate is Microsoft begging and pleeding for you to use it and to not switch with popups and literal biolt in serch results whenever you search for another browser
Fun Fact Explorer is still part of Win10 it just not the default
missed the dad joke opportunity to call edge’s game “surf the web”
I remember playing games on school computers. And being sad when my favorite sites became blocked…… then happy again when I was able to completely disable the schools filter for only me and teaching everyone how to do it.
I am a microsoft edge user, i rise
I am a microsoft rise user, i edge

I think there unironically could be 12 Microsoft Edge users who watched this video LOL.
School blocked the dinosaur game on our chromebooks... yeah thats a thing
I remember sitting huddled around the one computer in the classroom when we discovered the dinosaur game
Nice video, but (13:44) what kind of reason is that??
The IT at my school actually learned how to block the chrome dinosaur game, that day was when I knew I hated being under the foot of someone else. That day radicalized me
My school is so strict about our Chromebooks that they even blocked the DINOSAUR GAME. Even when you have no WiFi, the dinosaur gets hit by a meteor.
Fascinating video, I only knew of the Chrome one. Also I never played it for more than 5 seconds so I didn't know about the flash bang.
The "flash bang" he got was because he was on dark mode and people who use that mode are really sensitive to light.
the thing with edge surf, I discovered is that in endless mod, if you got left for a while, you can com across a "power-up" that just makes you invincible. you can then afk and get the highest score you want
this is such a great video! so underrated, subbed :) ❤
Ay yo, I didn't know you can DODGE in dinosaur game! 💀
in our elementary school we had specific free time activities, one of them being computer time, which was literally just like an hour or two of being allowed to play in browser games and nothing more
that damn mario file select music!!! its everywhere! I cannot escape the half a press
Nice video! I'ma go embroider the Crome Dino in cross stitch. 😁 (thanks for the inspiration/idea 🥰)
“man i think i need to take a break from three houses, im getting a bit brunt out, lemme check on youtube, oh this looks good-“
"Is this some kind of twisted joke?!?"
I had the idea for this exact video but I couldn’t make it this is awesome
i love the edge surf game. i only found it because i was helping my dad set up his computer. it had an insanely long wait time but the one thing it let us do was edge surf. we had so much fun lol
Surf looks like the spiritual successor to Windows 95 SkiFree
The dinosaur game is blocked and disabled on all of our computers
The fact that my school literally banned everything including the built-in browser game makes this whole video 10x funnier
This videos a little older now with many comments, but this reminded me of being able to play snake and pacman on internet explorer back in like 2010. i believe there was a dropdown next to the search bar where you could select a few games to play. its been so long that i cant remember exact details, but i was so hype to open my laptop and play those games as a kid
the Sonic Riders music over Microsoft Surf is funny. they are both extreme boarding games yes, but that's like it for connections. just find it funny. enjoy the user interaction boost
Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!
surf has an easter egg that if you go to left for a bit you can find a circle of krakens and if you go in the center you become a kraken
My phone has an included browser game as well.
When I browse something on Google without the Internet, I get a little cloud holding an umbrella, works like flappy bird.
Nice for Opera GX to have browser games to make you forget they're Chinese Spyware
12:00 yooo tempest clone let’s go, legit like one of my all time favorite classic arcade games
Fun fact: they blocked the dino game where I'm from
my school literally blocked everything, microsoft store, dino game, cool maths, all the sketchy game sites, google extensions, everything
My school blocked the dinosaur game 😭
Only the OG’s remember flying around in Microsoft Excel ‘97.
Or the Hall of Tortured Souls in Microsoft Excel ‘95.
Sad to see that Google zerg rush didn’t make it 😢😢 great video tho 💕
Pong is definitely S tier. The complexity in getting to it just makes it even more enticing
As somebody who had to spend most of A work day just sitting and staring at my computer not doing anything, you have my sincerest sympathy.
3:40 hold on this guy is cracked :O
The day they ban cool math games is the day my grades will drop
Best video of 2024
my paramedic program blocked the dinosaur game on our chromebooks and that feels like a hate crime. I didn’t even know that was possible
