I just started playing Barbuta yesterday and I am so hooked; I’m about to I think beat the path where I need to pay that guy to hammer down the wall, and I’m excited to discover the other paths once I’m done! I haven’t even played the other UFO 50 games yet
Update: today I beat that hammer path, then I figured out the switch path!!! :) I’m probably going to move onto start Bug Hunter now, but wow I will DEFINITELY be returning to Barbuta, it reminds me so much of Maze of Galious!
Same, Barbuta immediately captivated me and I had to finish it before moving on. I even drew out the map on graph paper to know where I was going. Great game, really brought be back to being a kid.
I'm genuinely baffled as to how anyone figured out that ladder secret. Knowing its riddled with secrets makes me both more and less motivated to give it another try. Maybe after I gold every other disk LMAO
There's a purple room elsewhere in the dungeon that has the ladder sequence you're supposed to do as the only path to get through, so ou just gotta copy that sequence in the a b room
@lintlion They even captured the enigmatic game design choices of the 1980's. Love or hate Barbuta, you gotta respect their dedication to emulating the good and the bad parts of the NES era.
@@RealShringo I'm only seeing the good here lmao this game sunk its teeth into me HARD, I think all its little weirdnesses come together really well, because of those little finicky bits not in spite of em
@@lintilion I'm just not a huge fan of secrets I suppose. I was never the kind of person to scour the game for stuff like than, just playing it through and taking whatever I found. Nowadays if I see an obscure puzzle or something that smells of a secret, I go straight to google.

I get that it's meant to look like a companies first game in 1987 but god the slow speed just ruins any appreciation you could have. I tried to enjoy it as the first game but it just puts a bad taste in your mouth that the other ufo50 games do eventually wash out.
watch sylvie's Guided Tour , I also thought Barbuta looks/looked insufferable to play with how it seems to have no sense or purpose - but in the Tour video you'll see it's just a cryptic old-geezer-fuddy-duddy type game

My favorite part is when barbuta said "I'm Barbuting out!!" and then barbutted all over the screen

@@MasDouc it really reminded me of Maze of Galious, or that MSX game the castle!! And Zelda 2’s dungeons a little bit too
@therealquinnzack1819 I never heard of Maze of Galious before but I checked it out and it looks awesome. Definitely gonna be giving it a shot.
@@MasDouc glad I could introduce you to it!! It’s Konami so you know it’s great
Incredible run, congrats! The fast platform cycle is super cool
This was awesome run, a little better boss rng and I think that's about as fast as it goes!
oh my fucking god I know I’ve hit that cracked wall with the hidden ladder before but I think I only ever attacked it twice
Let’s go!!! Looked flawless except for the floating platforms could have had a better cycle, yeah?

Wow, this is devoid of any sense or purpose.
No it isn't, you learn more about the world as you play.
the purpose is to beat the game, duh

No, its barbuta
