Now, this is the kind of game Arin is perfect for. Very little filler for him to get bored by, constant wild destruction, and a tutorial that's constantly on the screen during play.
an important part of the game grumps experience is figuring something out before arin does, and watching in resignation as he destroys things he's meant to be avoiding.
To answer a question no one asked, this game is made by a guy who worked on Red Faction: Guerilla, with all its deliciously destructible buildings. EDIT: More specifically, his name is Luke Schneider, and he was the Lead Tech Designer on RF:G.
God I loved that game. We need more games with destruction like this. Preferably with black hole grenades (whether they're appropriate for the context of the game or not)
Bro - if you've seen Arin using swords, and the glee, and his empty, soulless, 50 yard stares he has by the end of it? That's not a man who gets no satisfaction out of destruction.
Arin being distraught about not getting the bonus time requirement while also wasting a ton of time with pointlessly destroying the ruins that he doesn't need to destroy is very Arin.
Dan "I think those are just part of the natural landscape I don't think they count" Arin "No you get extra shit for them!" ....does he do it on purpose???
"you'd have to be a genius to do that!" he says, while running his vehicle head first into buildings while the blasts going off to either side do literally nothing, since he's just ramming the buildings with the one part of his vehicle not doing the exploding.

"I like the episode where Arin and Dan don't realize that the ruins they were explicitly told not to break in a previous mission aren't increasing the building destruction percentage and they're just wasting their time for a looong time"
When I saw the title, I thought the game might be more musically-inclined, like destroying stuff with actual musical instruments. Even so, I was not disappointed!
So you’re telling me that in this game arin won’t stop using the boost button or the abilities that the vehicles have. But in sonic games he barely ever uses the boost button or the abilities that the characters have.😂

Huh. I can't believe that Mr. Arin "Likes to Use Katanas to Slash Through Watermelons Multiple Times This Year" Hanson would utter the phrase, "I don't like destroying stuff."
It really is. All of the physics can make your system chug quite a bit, but then it's just slow motion and still feels awesome. Some levels really struggle on steam deck though, for what it's worth
This reminds me of the most underrated game I've ever played called "Robocraft." It's similar to this in physics and dynamics, except instead of buildings, you have to destroy other player's vehicles. Also you build the vehicles custom in a lego-block kind of workshop. It was pretty rad, but never seemed to make it into popularity.
OMG THE INCREDIBLE ANIMATIONS AT THE START OF THIS EPISODE!! WOW!! those were legitimately incredible and I don’t know why more people aren’t talking about it!!
Hearing Arin recommend Auvic felt like an out of body experience. Like if he had said my name. lol GREAT recommendation~ Auvic's music is insanely good.
Naturally, Arin forgets that Ruins are not the same as Buildings. I find it oddly satisfying, though, that he realized his mistake before the end of the video.
1:56 I love the immediate disgust from Arin after that sawblade line. He didn't even do the "BoWAAooWAooWao", just "ok I get it" while button-mashing to shut her up. Brutal
That game was a massive inspiration for this one! Pair it with a developer with extensive destruction physics (the lead from red faction: guerilla) and this gem pops out
Arin: I don't like slicing stuff up.
Yesterday I watched you take a katana to a watermelon like 5 times
Didn't he go to a "Break a car and 900 pieces of glassware" place a while back?

IIRC they're basically a solo dev as well. It's a really neat game - and the Grumps haven't even explored being able to build your own vehicles yet.
the environment destruction is literally the only reason i fully beat Red Faction: Guerilla. If you like breaking stuff he's the guy for you
@@Lou-Mae Yeah, the possibilities are endless when it comes to building your own vehicles.

Instruments of Destruction: The name of NSP & TWRP's metal cover album.
dan does his best dave mustaine impression
Also the name of a song from the Transformers animated movie that goes pretty hard. N.R.G.
Would've thought that was the name of their first orgy video, but y'know...this works just as well.
@@trinity31409I saw the name and had to watch to see if Dan or Aaron broke out into that song.
Instruments of Destruction sounds like how a metal band would describe their peens
“ I don’t like destroying stuff”
* entire other channel consists only of him making a giant mess and disaster in his office*
10 Minute Power Hour of them having to clean up their own mess after a previous Power Hour
Arin: I don't like destroying stuff...
Meanwhile Arin on 10 Minute Power Hour: (destroys boxes and the set)
Arin: "You can't give us stuff on the 10MPH that's not supposed to be destroyed!" (when they did the christmas episode with Ally's own mini tree)
there was an entire 10MPH episode where they went to a place who's whole business is letting you destroy stuff with bats and hammers lol
Almost like that's the bit to the power hour
@@MrNinja543 It's just a joke dude, it's not that serious

Let's see if Arin learned something from Kids on Site.
This comment needs more love!
Great reference lmao
Kids On Site was a great episode.
Arin being distraught about not getting the bonus time requirement while also wasting a ton of time with pointlessly destroying the ruins that he doesn't need to destroy is very Arin.

Yeah, it's not like a previous mission attempted to teach them the difference between buildings and ruins haha

"You ready for this..." Into immediate "UHOH UHOH UHOH!" 😂
Dan exclaiming "Oh no, mixed media!" with such genuine concern might be the funniest thing I've heard all week 😂😂
It's like a modern day Blast Corps! Love it!
I was just thinking that! I was well into the belief that Blast Corps was gonna be one of a kind forever, and here we are. Hell yes.

"Instruments of destruction
Tools of foul play
It's a vile interruption
Existence drifts away"
One of my favorite songs from that *legendary* soundtrack.
I literally thought of that movie when I read the title
Iron birds of fortune
Adrift above the skies
Cloudy revelations
Unseen by naked eyes
Flying tools of torment
Ah so all the transformers fans have come out the woodwork XD
This comment right here. 👍
arin destroying the ruins while not having to and only figuring it out AFTER he finishes the round is so classic arin
24:56
I'm so sad that they missed this vehicle's name being the "Bombowler."
"I like the episode where Arin and Dan don't realize that the ruins they were explicitly told not to break in a previous mission aren't increasing the building destruction percentage and they're just wasting their time for a looong time"
"Thats great Timmy! Are you ready for your brain surgery?"
The Kongo Construction Crew really diversified in the future, didn't they, eh wot?

Huh. I can't believe that Mr. Arin "Likes to Use Katanas to Slash Through Watermelons Multiple Times This Year" Hanson would utter the phrase, "I don't like destroying stuff."
The fact that it took 20 minutes for them to realise that invaluable ancient ruins aren't, in fact, buildings is very on brand
Blast Corps returns! Time to get movin'!
I would love to see them play that game
Ditto!
@@TiegonBerry Yes, please! That would be amazing! (And incredibly frustrating to watch, let's be honest.)
Just needs a wildly enthusiastic banjo-techno soundtrack.
GO FOR IT!
@@grammarmaid To play too, probably
Didn't think several minutes of my life would be spent yelling "THOSE ARE RUINS, NOT BUILDINGS! THE GAME ALREADY TAUGHT YOU THAT!"
But here we are.
It's funny how Arin and Dan don't relise that the % wont go up if you destroy Ruins on the 1min30sec Mission
Yeah, despite Dan already pointing out earlier that the ruins and the buildings count towards different percentages. Classic GG.
so proud when he eventually realised it on his own and went on to ace the round 👏👏

hell yeah! im glad to see this game getting noticed by more and more CC's, its a lot of fun
“bonus objection” fresh from ace attorney
Dan: "What is this, Sonic Boom?"

Arin is an Auvic fan? LET'S GOOO
Arin's an avid Auvic appreciator!
but his music sucks
@@AuvicMusic uh
Full screen covering message shining in gold "MISSION COMPLETE"

Modern day Blast Corps from N64 😆

Hi your dad
Here before you blow up.
Not here before you blow up
For some reason I read this as Hi it's your dad
Not for any weird reasons, I’m just seeking the truth.
I know somebody who wans to give you a kisssssie!
Auvic kicks ass, and I'm surprised the first place I've ever heard anyone else mention it is the grumpers
The personality shines through and keeps viewers coming back.
1:56 I love the immediate disgust from Arin after that sawblade line. He didn't even do the "BoWAAooWAooWao", just "ok I get it" while button-mashing to shut her up. Brutal
Reminds me of Blast Corps; the criminally underrated N64 game that never received a sequel or port.
Never say never. It was ported to XBox systems via Rare Replay
That game was a massive inspiration for this one! Pair it with a developer with extensive destruction physics (the lead from red faction: guerilla) and this gem pops out
Oh also, Blast Corps is available on the switch arcade thing or wherever you go for the old games
"You lost a star because the vehicle wasn't functional"
Arin - "OOOOOOHHHH WHATEVER" 😂
Ahh, the old dump and jump; a desperate bar technique. Few discuss it...
Will Arin's grocery store make a return in the future??
2:20 "Current people enjoy destruction aswell". I suddenly remembered Blast Corps for N64.
Whenever I see the Grumps wearing hard hats in the thumbnail I know it's gonna be a good one
I will never get over how cute that game gyaru intro is
This instantly reminded me on Blast Corps
AL is amazing, I advertise their photos, they don't move themselves. Takes a little tweak to make using AL images not too off.
also "Edible Plate" should be the next spassbear song
This kinda reminds me of that N64 game "blast corp's"
Weird hearing Lilith talking about destruction and making ball puns. Love it.
“Tools of Foul Play!”
Reminds me of Blast Core on 64!
The plot of this game: Run into things.
Can't wait for the animators to get their hands on the audio for this epidosde's last mission.
This reminds me of Besieged, but like it just gives you a machine built for the tasks already instead of asking you to build something.
We had a game for the Nintendo 64 called Blast Corps and it was awesome and this is more awesome.
These graphics are so pleasing. ❤
i'd be lying if i said i wasn't a little disappointed that no one realized the last machine was called the Bombowler
"It's an isle unto itself"
DAN HAS LISTENED TO MIRACLE MUSICAL?
This music is seriously something else.
Gam gump
Gam gump

This feels like modern Blast Corps haha
Would love to see them play through that
I really like that chibi Burn Up W/Gunsmith Cats vibing intro
I feel like they'd enjoy that Ship Salvage Simulator game.
More please! Also this soundtrack bops!
This makes me want to see you guys play "Blast Corps" on the N64. An amazing game, that I remember screaming at for hours.
Love the fact they know and refer to one my favorite songs of all time
I read the title and my Transformers brain instantly thought of the 86’ movie.
11:53 i almost jumped out of my seat i thought dan said "isle unto thyself"
Level 2 really reminded me of Rock of ages. I'd love to see them play those games
Dan defending construction, love the thought process.
Did anyone else notice the small detail at 5:23? It’s so cool!
is everyone strapped in for ten minutes of them thinking the ruins count?
Dan makes for such a great Passenger Princess
Before video: Oh, this sounds fun!
During video: Oh... it's just a sadder Besiege...
Dude this is basically Blast Corps with amazing modern graphics
Honestly, this game looks pretty dope. I wouldnt mind them playing more episodes of it
The passion really shines through. Great job!
It really is great playing mindless fun games once in a while.
Makes me want to rewatch their guts and glory playthrough
I'm sitting at the hospital in labor, keeping my sanity together with some grumps madness ❤😂
Isn't this besieged without building? Still dope as shit I'm not complaining 🙌🔥🔥
Oh yes!! I love these simulator games! It makes me so happy to see the boys playing these!
I love when Arin loses it over something, but even more when he loses it in a good way.
Game reminds me of Blast Corps for N64. You guys should give that a try for sure, it’s chaotic as hell
