    This game was way funnier than I expected, especially since it made its own comedy and didn't even make fun of The Witness too much. You should still get the game yourself even after watching! It's free, and there's probably some stuff I missed in this video.

    13:00 Actually, there is a way to categorize the order. it's based on the number of corners in the shape, from least to most. a circle has no corners, so 0, the moon has 2 points, a triangle 3, the hourglass 6, etc. etc.

    I remember when I used to watch your Witness series and would tune in to it after class. I still lived in an old tiny apartment, but sitting here in my home again makes me really miss the homely feeling of the apartment, it's only been 3 years ago since I left it to move back but it already felt so nostalgic after a year of living back home. And I can guarantee you that tuning in to watch you play the game all excitedly definitely was one of the more nostalgic memories for me.

    I love the heavy jabs at the audio for The Witness, straight up followed a tutorial for the bamboo laser in Witness and shipwreck so having this game being made straight up impossible unless you listen to the audio is a nice jab.
    It is a really nice jab at Witness without going too overboard as shown by making it free and limiting it to a small hub area.

    For the stop sign, here's how it was solved
    So there were 2 puzzles earlier that showed you how to do it, but this time it was less obvious. The catch was that if there were multiple end points, you have to use both, and that S and E represent Start and End respectively. So all you needed to do at the door was connect both Ss and Es, which you only did after scribbling on it.

      The Witness dev did not make The Looker.. apparently he actually hates the parody because it was more well received than his game..

    Have you ever played the Witness Puzzle Randomizer? It’s quite fun and challenging

    You missed the final short video, which was the funniest part in my opinion, it's just at the end of the credits.
