Sorry to hear about the flooding. Thanks for finding time to put out another video in the midst of all these setbacks. I know 2024's been a pretty unlucky year for me, too, but I'm glad you're still at making videos. I like your deep-dives on more niche titles, and you've got a good voice for narration, too. Keep up the good work, and I hope the rest of the year goes better for you!
Instant banger because you mentioned Cave Story Editing after watching the video fully, this game seems really charming :) I'm gonna have to give it a shot soon
Sounds like Karryn's Prison stole your lunch money and your pet wombat. And then Embric of Wulfhammer's Castle got them back for you. Also, references to Oglaf _and_ OoTS? We are truly blessed! Fun vid, and glad you're OK.
Man i missed your "freak pick" (niche and underrepresented") reviews a lot and this game seems like the kind of thing that would really float my boat thank you! Also, in case you weren't aware of them, the other person i tend to go to for that is one dosh doshington, between his factorio uploads if you are interested in that.
Hmm, the game sounds somewhat interesting. I might try it out when I have the ti- 5:00 "Nearly all of the on-screen romance is cutesy wlw fun" Welp, time to download and spend my entire day on it.
Glad that your misfortunes haven't killed you yet! Also more little whimsical videos like this please! Hearing shallow dives on obscure foundational gaming memories is always great. Plus, I'd never heard of this one before, despite being old enough to be familiar with that era of RPG Maker stuff.
Fingers crossed the recovery from COVID and house flooding is going ok. Just recovering from being unemployed myself, but your Patreon is high on my list once that's been righted out. Glad to hear others have been able to help
It's great. Probable one of the best H-battle games I've played. My only complaint is that if you opt for a lust build, the later battles can end up taking forever
Glad to know your levels in survival are paying off and that you are doing alright ^^ I hope life stops throwing wrenches at you soon but until then take care and don't forget those MREs! Also I never heard of this game but you haven't lead me astray with finding hidden gems so ill try and give it a try soon! Take care and I cant wait for the Signalis and Cataclysm videos! So dam excited!
Glado to hear you didn't die of your misfortunes! Always nice to see a new video up! Also: always great to see people mention (or show) Analogue: A Hate Story, such an amazing gem!
That still of Analogue a hate story was a flashbang of nostalgia. First visual novel I ever played in middle school. I don’t think I understood it at all but it made me feel.
Clearly, you're just on one of the many cycles where things weren't as.....hectic, let's say. Joking aside, do take your time. I ADORE your content, and knowing you're going into a proper deep-dive of one of my all time favorite games.....after doing a deep dive of TWO of my favorite franchise's best fangames, has me more then eager to enjoy when it comes out.
I do feel like you were a bit dismissive of VNs as a medium in this - a good VN can be as immersive as any good book, they aren't always bogged down by exposition. But always love to see more yuri out there, so thanks for shedding light on this one! Speaking of yuri, I'm excited to see your SIGNALIS video! Though I still have to actually finish the game before I can watch it.
I am not a VN fan and yes I have played the good ones. I think the medium is simply a bad way to tell stories. Things like Steins;gate succeed in spite of the format, not because of it, and as we see in that case, it works better as an anime, even though the anime sacrifices its innovative nonlinearity. Specifically, the problem is that VNs generally only present a small amount of text at a time, something that is worse in english releases thanks to our language taking up more space. But even in Japanese, the format creates pacing issues with the exposition which do not exist in standard books, comics, or other media that relies on the written word. VNs just don't give you very much information per "page," which creates an inescapable pacing issue. One game I think gets around that is Analog: A Hate Story, which is arguably not a VN. Analog dispenses with a lot of the formalities of the genre and has you spend most of your time reading diary entries and other documents and trying to draw connections between them. You're not mashing space bar to page through small blocks of expository narration, you're reading logs that fill the screen, and the pace at which this information is presented to you is an essential part of the story itself.
Fairly new watcher. Amazing content. Binged all of cdda and a variety of the other games/lore. You’ve quickly become one of my favs alongside titans such as Markiplier and jse. You rub shoulders with the gods of this app stand proud ye god of worms and May ever your kingdom prosper.
I love to chuck on your odyssey length vids in the background while I'm doing things, but I really enjoyed this short snippet sharing something you loved. Hoping for a better end to the year for you ♥🐛
Much appreciated for putting us on to these niche games, i genuinely wouldn’t have heard of these until your vid’s! Ty so much for bringing these to our attention! Also hope things get better, we really care about you and wish the best for you! 😊
I love your content. You have such a nice voice I could listen to anything you say. Good thing you talk about games so I'm doubly hooked to your content!
When you said frames, it immediately made me think of Geocities and Angelfire websites. I made one for my own make believe RPG 😅 Love love love your content
Hey, I beta-tested this! Loved the original ending, Natural 20 screwed it over tho. Found this funny bit where Alice and the Duchess were fooling around in their bedroom, and because of some flag, Louni was standing there, watching. I brought it up to SaintBomber and they were like "I gotta write a variation to that."
There's actually a canon ending, sort of. The dev has been rolling the idea of a sequel around for some years now, and it appears to use some variation of the Iron Duchess+ ending as a basis for its story.
I got really lucky. My belongings were unharmed and there was no major structural damage, but you still have to have workers come out and do a bunch of stuff to make sure water didnt soak into places it shouldn't, and replace material in places it did. That was a big hassle, but it could have been worse.
@@mutantwormgirl sounds like it went as good as can be, flooding is always stressful since you don't know how far the damages can stretch into where you live
I REMEMBER FRAMES. MY WEBSITE HAD FRAMES. I PICKED A WEB MAKER SERVICE SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE IT HAD FRAMES. oh also. yeah. this is a pretty good game. not much more to add on that end. i could say how much i like alice's character and her purpose in the story, but i think people should play this game for themselves to find out. also, the anti-paladins. we need to remember what a silly concept anti-paladins are. this game does that, and i appreciate it. i mostly just needed to say the part about frames because you made me instantly go back 20 years in time there.
I'm going through the exact same rpgmaker rabbit hole spiral lmao. Played this game a while back along with yume nikki, funger, wadanohara, void stranger, blacksouls etc.. The dialogue really does feel like a time capsule of late 2000s internet
I think I'll give this game a shot, you got me into LISA and Ive played the hell out of Pointless these last few weeks, Ill trust you if you say that a game is good or not even if it looks like its not for me. And thanks for keeping up on your CDDA series. Im still thinking about what happened to the trio after reaching *that* place, its nice but definitely far from perfect lmao. Also, thanks for uploading, random irl bullshit is always going to be that so thank you for clawing your way through it!
My fried ass saw an obscure rpg worm girl video at 5 am, and my fried ass will be watching that obscure rpg worm girl video at 5 am. Sorry to hear about covid and floods, glad to see you still kicking. Also Rahhhh more ccda coming 🔥🔥

Signalis incoming? * happy worm noises *
Came for worms, stayed for sapphic shenanigans, then got real happy at the mention of Signalis.
10/10 would watch again.
fresh worm
Instant banger because you mentioned Cave Story
Editing after watching the video fully, this game seems really charming :)
I'm gonna have to give it a shot soon
Mentioning Karryn's Prison amongst romance in games is incredibly hilarious
As a woman aficionado, Im glad to know about more wlw games, Ill check it out
Excited to share novel and amusing women with the audience.
New Worm Girl video? Exactly what I’ve been looking for
All of saintbomber's stuff is fantastic. I hope you enjoy their other stuff.
I actually played like their whole library, haha. I think Embric is my favorite still though.
Sounds like Karryn's Prison stole your lunch money and your pet wombat. And then Embric of Wulfhammer's Castle got them back for you.
Also, references to Oglaf _and_ OoTS? We are truly blessed! Fun vid, and glad you're OK.
Ayo, Karryn's Prison is awesome! -Ahem* But you raise some good points, this does seem like a lovely game. I'll give it a look!
LFG from homoeroticism of Lisa to the horror of funger into the sapphic world there's nowhere I won't follow worm nation
Can't wait for the Karryn's Prison review now that its been teased... haha
I played some st bomber stuff a few years back and I was really blown away by how catchy some of the songs were. Love to see more stuff about them
Man i missed your "freak pick" (niche and underrepresented") reviews a lot and this game seems like the kind of thing that would really float my boat thank you!

Hmm, the game sounds somewhat interesting. I might try it out when I have the ti-
5:00 "Nearly all of the on-screen romance is cutesy wlw fun"
Welp, time to download and spend my entire day on it.
theres women in the video game, all kinds
Glad that your misfortunes haven't killed you yet! Also more little whimsical videos like this please! Hearing shallow dives on obscure foundational gaming memories is always great. Plus, I'd never heard of this one before, despite being old enough to be familiar with that era of RPG Maker stuff.
1. Great game rec, as a yuri fan I will absolutely try this one!
2. A Signalis essay from you is a freaking dream come true. Excellent news!
Wow you've really been going through it with the COVID and flooding! I think you're due for a lucky break.
I cannot wait to see your Signalis content!
Waow... worm,, gorl...
Fingers crossed the recovery from COVID and house flooding is going ok. Just recovering from being unemployed myself, but your Patreon is high on my list once that's been righted out. Glad to hear others have been able to help
Karryn’s Prison review next week.
I'd been trying to dredge this game up from the depths of my memory for years, played it back in early high-school, can't wait to see how it aged.
WORM WORLD FOREVER
Dark elf memories are best memories
Okay I'm sold. I should play this game. Karryn's Prison.
It's great. Probable one of the best H-battle games I've played. My only complaint is that if you opt for a lust build, the later battles can end up taking forever
SHE'S BAAACK!!! THE QUEEN'S BAAACK!!!
SIGNALIS VIDEO COMING OUT!?!? FUCK YEAH!!!!

short wormgirl videos? Still love them

Absolutely cannot wait to see the signalis video. Such an incredible game, can't wait to hear your insights.
Omg... the ending song, Shining Force 2. What a perfect song to end on. Perfect...
cutesy wlw fun in a fantasy rpg?! yes, please!
also, good gods, you've been beset by so many misfortunes! here's hoping for a turnaround right quick 💜
