Oh man! I'm sure someone else will have mentioned it already, but this reminds me of Ori and the Blind Forest. Like... a lot. And free? That's mad! Definitely gonna try this. And play Ori again lol
Man that was such a good game. I hope it becomes either a coop, or a fighting platformer were you are the bear and want to save the sheep from the wolf
@RealCivilEngineerGaming should do a Bridge Review compilation video. Then, in the comments we could tell Matt which ones he got right and which ones he got wrong...
Watching him play this makes me really want to see him play a game like Hollow Knight. Way outside his usual wheelhouse, but it would be entertaining to watch him try to navigate.
So.... MiniDisc actually predates CD's and has much better sound quality, but.... it was crazy expensive. A minidisc player in the 80's would cost you around $3000.

haha seeing this on this channel is a surprise, I haven't watched your vids in a while and this is what got recommended to me month after it's upload I was one of the beta testers for this game. It's a shame the soundtrack couldn't be heard in your video because it's really dope. the sound effects are so well done. I was surprised when the game got a full release and it was for free. Thank you for playing Sheepy!
There is a quite nice game called Spacetail: Every Journey Leads Home, it is similar to Sheepy: A Short Adventure. There is a demo and a prequel which are both free. The game was created by a small indie company. I highly recommend it to you.
Man, I want to pay them just for watching someone else do a playthrough. What a cool game. PS that's a hell of a lot of effort on artwork for something that is free. Those details are crazy.
This is the only way that I could ever withstand enduring even the very best platformer at the best price. Thank you, Matt, for all those epic double-jumps and remembering which button does what when. The story, the world, the art, and everything about this little game was just beautiful! Thank you, MrSuicideSheep, for adding one more lovely gem to the world.
Hey, RCE! Quick question, why do you never read the little lore bits? Is it like a general disdain for lore bits or is it a Fair Use thing? Like, trying to make sure it’s transformative content? I’m just genuinely curious. P.s. I thought about going into architectural design in 2017 but luckily college for that is way too expensive here. Fiddle farted around till this year deciding to be a vet tech and try to specialize in surgery. Maybe I’ll go to heaven after all! Also, your videos have shown me the way of engineering. You see I wanted to be an architect because I’m really good at math and drawing and wanted to design big buildings and bridges. So, what I’m saying is thanks for making me more confused on what I want to do in life. Cheers! 😂
People get bored and turn the video off during those parts, now I don't show them! Plus it means I don't spoil the game too much for those that want to fully experience it
Agreed, it's always a little jarring to see so much get skipped (and the fully-commissioned soundtrack of this one basically muted!) but then no real explanation why, no prominent CTA for people to go play for themselves
@@titop.5228 the soundtrack would sound like a bad tape with all the jump cuts being done here. It would never line up. They'd have to just rip and add the music themselves
Day 42 of continuing to peer pressure Paddy into making Matt play Mindustry more. Day 9 of asking Matt to do another video on Hydrology Engineer. -Day 4 of complaining about the Timberborn cliffhanger.- No tips today, you beat the game lol. Main thing is a question: you lost three abilities but lit up four things so I'm wondering if zone 3 had an ability you missed when you went ahead to zone 4.
I knew i recognized the style. I know who MrSuicideSheep is. Didn't think much of it till the end but dang. I know he uploads music playlists, i did not know he makes games. And yea, for a free game, that was insanely well made.
I didn't know that the game was a documentary of Paris underground. I don't understand why they were surprised to find the remains of an ancient civilisation there though.
Seeing this made me think of two games outside your usual style that maybe you might wanna look into: Mushroom 11 (not a series, AFAIK, the number is an artistic choice I guess), and Webbed (by Sbug Games). Both with surprisingly reasonable prices on Steam, and in Webbed you can even earn a hardhat to wear (in game).
I wish Metroid were built like this. The atmosphere is great. I would take this a step further.... a post apocalypse, add in-game locales, like a smith, apothecary, different animal characters you could choose. Beyond Sheepy.
9.7 on a bridge that has NO RAILS.
Matt, you're turning into an architect, God help us.
That's the deduction isn't it? With rails it'd have been perfect.
Zero maintenance cost is huge though. Constant level of safety from now till the end of time
And with the self destruction it ensures the traffic doesn't back up
Considering it's in a 2d world, what are rails going to do?
@@rg0305 On the contrary. It ensures the traffic does back up as everyone will form a line and take the bridge one at a time.

They actually don't produce music. It's mostly just single tracks or compilations.
I think the latest videos are mixes of other people's music.
Its a music curator channel

I can recommend Against The Storm if you like the first hour of a city builder.
I love that game. Best new game I have played in a long time.
That closing scene was confusing. Was the portal pulling them in or pushing them away?😅
Definitely pulling in. The sheep had to fight against it to move away and grab the bear, and then had to drag the bear.
This is very clearly inspired by things like Hollow Knight and the Ori games. And I approve of that vibe! We need more of it.

You know a game is so good if it gets people questioning why its free.

You may want to look into the Unravel games, which have a similar aesthetic to this.
After you got the dash it was basically that Robot Unicorn Attack game! 😂
As a French I can confirm that we indeed have magic sheep and massive underground cities
8:31 that reminds me of the bridge in the mines of Moria, from The Lord of the Rings. Probably a little Easter egg.

16:10 From Mario to Sonic to ROBOT UNICORN ATTACK :D
I played this game a long time ago and the ending made me feel very warm and fuzzy, wonderfully made game.
You should make a video with all your bridge reviews
That was a cute little game. I wonder if it's a 'tech demo' to get them recognition for a much bigger project?
