Yeah, the way it looks around by turning its entire head definitely looks catlike. Which makes sense, really. If Mother Nature ever decided to create a monster to destroy mankind, she'd definitely base it off a cat.
Neat animation on the monster, but I'm not so sure about the game design. It has a problem where the better you do, the better you do; there's a point where things go near-exponential and strategy stops mattering much, but your luck and performance in the first couple levels determines when you get onto the fast track towards winning. That's a huge problem with tower defense games where towers can be lost; if you lose more than a couple in the first levels, you're better off just restarting because there's no coming back.
Looking at the end seems to be more of minmaxing the score kind of game rather than combat itself being the challenge. But yeah, if you don't lose early on it won't really happen.
Hey btw Ash is the name of the creature, so when you increased Ash's distance, that was the range of your tentacles. Walking tentacles allow you to continue moving while you attack, and speed is its own separate upgrade, seen at 19:56. Why they use the plural instead of the possessive for the spelling, who knows, probably just a simple mistake but i get why it was causing you confusion
What a creative and well executed idea for a tower defense type game! I love this. Hope they can maybe add more to it. Also, after Matt's utter annihilation of the pesky human invaders, fair to call him the Real Forestry Engineer?
"Unfortunately there is no engineering [character]" he said in the end ... well ... then take the gardener ... he could count as a plant engineer with a lot of good will 👍
Honestly, I'm afraid not really. These days gardeners are probably better than they used to, but gardening has generally more to do with trying to force plants to do what you (or your employer) wants them to, even if it's completely against their nature or common sense, than with being efficient and solving problems the optimal way.
I like how it's a fun game that teaches in a subtle way how biodiversity helps a forest, obviously in real life its for wildly different reasons, but it's nice that it puts the idea in your head
I just love the choice of games you showcase. They are pleasing and satisfying to watch you play. Thank you for all the hard work and for providing us with such enjoyable content 😊😁
"99% where architects" yet the 1% where innocent lives of editors trying to escape. Do not overlook the losses people for any loss is too great. #save_the_editors #ripsmichel
I could see some seeds underneath your trees still that you probably didn't have a chance to collect from a previous round or they just spawned near the end of the video
Ash isnt just carbon, yozre thinking about coal, carbon gets released into the atmnosphere through burning, ashes are the leftover minerals from the burning
I like how the enemy of the trees is apparently carbon....but what the hell are the trees made out of? Surely I didn't take organic chemistry courses for nothing lol
Im pretty sure "Ash" is the character's name what you extract from enemies is only carbon not ash as you aren't burning them. Oh ya and the tree you are protecting is "Gaia".
The protagonist looks like something from out of Princess Mononoke, planting trees and killing lumberjacks. Evil lumberjacks that are felling beautiful trees to turn them into ugly architecture.
Really surprised to see no comments on how his intro was different this time... Really threw me off. It's always been "Hello fellow engineers, and welcome to/back to..." Mr. RCE, is the world going to end?
I love that anytime there's a currency in a game Matt calls it quid lol
Well, yah. Like how every American will call it a Dollar
Well hebis British, and we call any currency quid with pride
Am I weird or is it satisfying when he says that
It’s a thing us bri’ish people do.
Average Br*’ish person:
The little creature looks like a cat looking around every time Matt moves the cursor 😂 it’s strangely adorable
i though its only me who think like that 😂, the tentacle look cute and sad at the same time 😅😢
Yeah, the way it looks around by turning its entire head definitely looks catlike.
Which makes sense, really.

I’m glad others saw that. I thought I was going crazy. 😂
@@herrhartmann3036 as someone with a black cat… I approve of this message 😂
It really really is. It feels like it is almost supposed to be creepy but the way of moves is just so adorable.
I’m surprised Matt didn’t notice the efficiency of the half sphere trees
"Let's add more seeds on perfect on the penultimate round when I won't need trees any more because I've won" - Always an architect, Matt, always.

That's exactly what I tought. By wave 4-5, nothing mattered anymore, it was won no matter what
Looking at the end seems to be more of minmaxing the score kind of game rather than combat itself being the challenge. But yeah, if you don't lose early on it won't really happen.
The animation is procedural
few seconds into game and matt is already spreading his seed around

Correction! His name is actually "Ashes", not Ash. Which is also confusing, but my bad
What is ashes distance then? Is that distance to fight?
No, mr. real civil architect, ash is anything but "just carbon" its mostly mineral compounds left without carbon.
Exactly, the carbon turns into carbon dioxide leaving behind the inorganic matter.
@@Orofino6unburned carbon becomes soot!
Bro is gonna be mad you called him an architect.
@@locrianphantom3547 he should only be mad at man, who cause The Incident.
3:53 my number, neat!
The creature walking is so satisfying, idk why
Seriously thought this was Goobies for a solid minute before realizing it's a totally different rougelite game from a totally different dev.
I love your videos, you always find the most random games ever and its always fun to watch, thanks for making such a great content !
That ain't quid, Matt.
Yeah it’s a bowling pin set up
@@rdcmot not squid, quid! which it ain't!
@@rdcmot oh but you're right actually
What a creative and well executed idea for a tower defense type game!
I love this. Hope they can maybe add more to it.

Funny at 19:13 notices he can rotate the cam (funny how long actual playtime it was before realised it)
5:33 Ah yes Bartock the Magnificent. I see your editor is also a man of culture.
Finally turning against the beavers. Save the trees! Don't eat em!

Peace, love, and tentacles. A man of culture. Who doesn't like a nice tentacle loving video, right?
Humans: "Don't Attack the giant s'quid' monster!"
"Attack the trees!"
Treeeeeeeeeesssss!!!!!!!

When the tree is angy
Great video 👍

You being this good at a game is a weird feeling 😂
I'm proud to be one of the 345 polarpoint listeners on spotify!
Me too! I love The Changing faces of Spartapuss
@@HigherStatus15 Yeah, I like that one too! My favorite is "No more"
I could definitely see this as being like a small little fun game that is simple yet keeps you entertained and playing for a bit😅😊
I am absolutely in love with that little creature. What a cutie. Runner up to Krobus from Stardew. And that’s not an easy feat.
That one guy trying to read under a tree
Makes me remember a horror movie : "The tring"
Btw this game is free on Steam
A creature protects the forbidden apple tree from the garden of knowledge
that tentacle monster looks so cute and cool
love the new vids we need more happy sheepies
“This tree is trying to 💀 me, F you nature”
Matt’s voice fits the creature so well… damn!
He uploads again!!
Omg the tree monster is sooo adorable :3
loved that game
Lorax is very angry today.
19:15 out of 25min Matt complains that he cannot see behind the trees. 💀 Then he remembers that he can rotate the camera. 🏛 What an Architect move!
13:30 i second that and that,
I love your vidios!!! Keep it up😊😊😊
this is a pretty fun game, and it's free!
we always appreciate free
Hiya Matt, absolutely love your videos, outdoors you please play peacekeeper if possible . Thx
he can rotate the camera!!
The Lorax cult leader: (Insert the charachter he is using here)
Definitely replay this one and try the other characters
That title is terrifying for beavers
I want the same stuff as the guy who came up with this game idea
Ooo pls could you play this again, looks like fun. Would love to see another few vids of this
this might be the best video you have ever uploaded
13:26 hahah
True so true
Hi matt you are a cool person
If you haven’t watched yet, this video is about RCE whacking off architects with his tentacles.
your tentacles were used so much, they went crazy. Games do that.
Ash is carbon powder which is a left over carbon
"99% where architects" yet the 1% where innocent lives of editors trying to escape. Do not overlook the losses people for any loss is too great.
#save_the_editors
#ripsmichel
The 1% was the editors hopes and dreams... Did you not read?
That character is literally me lmao
I got to the point where every time I open a video I automatically say "hello fellow engineers"
tentacle tippy-taps
Got the game (free on steam) 10/10 game play it. Just do it. no story spoiled cause the is none, really fun and creative game
Make the mukkap in CS2 since you made the line and the oxagon
mr beast is very proud of matt
Under ten minutes les go!
Hayao Miyazaki approves.
MATT IS DA BEST
Lorax Sim?

Well this makes colonazation harder
looks pretty tedious but cool idea in theory
If you mean blume the blum ist more Like your bloom and than u Just say äh
so- bloom+äh= blume = flower= 🌻 without the sun 🚫☀️
Im pretty sure "Ash" is the character's name what you extract from enemies is only carbon not ash as you aren't burning them. Oh ya and the tree you are protecting is "Gaia".
Trees? Fighting?
If only you could respec the forest. Take trees back out if you make a mistake.
I would love to be that creatur
Nice
They didnt bring a flamethrower...
The protagonist looks like something from out of Princess Mononoke, planting trees and killing lumberjacks. Evil lumberjacks that are felling beautiful trees to turn them into ugly architecture.
Oeh😮 brom fshes aloom 😮
So weird to see RCE planting trees instead of deforesting.
Ash is not carbon... Ash is what is left when carbon is burned off. Carbon would be "soot".
this looks pretty, but it seems that it just gets too easy too quickly
Really surprised to see no comments on how his intro was different this time... Really threw me off. It's always been "Hello fellow engineers, and welcome to/back to..."
Mr. RCE, is the world going to end?
That monster is kinda disturbing xd
Lol so we are the carbon they want to replace with trees lol
top down cryptid simulator
Day 52 of asking Matt to play the saxophone for an intro 🎷🎷🎷
u never showed the attack bomb
hi
Only 1 tree type like (only pine or only apple)
Pls more the crust
