Hi, coder of Strangeland here and part of Wormwood Studios (the dev studio behind Strangeland), so nice to see this video!! The asset was never implemented, it was just an idea to implement it. The idea was that it'd be triggered by typing L,S,D, but it didn't get implemented because it required recording new lines and we were too close to release!
This is one of those times where scrolling UA-cam comments is actually rad as hell. I'd never heard of Strangeland before this video but I'm absolutely in love with it visually and I'm about to look into playing it for the first time right now!
Question, though: can't you guys just add it in with a patch? I know it'd seem kinda pointless to do at this point, but I just want to know if you don't do it because it'd be too much work or you just don't think it's worth for other reasons.
@@Dreadjaws Yeah, but there's reasons why it would never make it, that would take a long time to explain on a single comment. Let's say creative differences for now. That will do. The game is quite easy to patch even. Saves won't break no matter what.
I love this channel so much. It holds that old youtube almost scrappy and authentic style to it, but always has fresh and new easter egg entries instead or recycling them every single top 10.
I remember the original Mortal Kombat II having stuff like "Sal Divita Wins", implying that you could play as one of the motion capture actors, and "Tanya Wins", years before she was an actual character in the game. You could see that stuff alongside all the regular text in the game by loading the EXE file in a text editor.
the real joy is that mortal kombat also has a rich storied history of having real, functional stupid bullshit in the games as well. you literally have no idea until you play the games extensively and/or datamine the game. ermac is a special example in that he *was* bullshit and then got *made real* 2 games later
@@drabulusdael9329 it's a Japanese game, called "Shiiman" in japan, so basically it was seaman there too. I don't think they knew of the other word in the first place.
Oddheader is the best at actually showing video clips directly relevant to what he’s talking about in video games. I’ve seen other channels do similar things, but they always have to use so much filler because they don’t put the actual time in to do it properly.
OddHeader just uses clips recorded by other people. He literally puts in the least amount of time possible. He says like 3-4 sentences over footage recorded by someone else. He doesn't test the eggs himself, he doesn't do any research, his Discord & Subreddit do 100% of the legwork, then he hits record & says what amounts to a small Wikipedia article. An OddHeader video could be finalized in less than 2 hours, I guarantee it.
The “Floyd counter” in the files is definitely a callback to “Shawn attacks” and “kano transformations” which were other red herrings included on the audit screens in the early games’ arcade versions
@quinnwilson2215 yeah, but Rain also turned out to be real, and he's a similar reference. Ermac, Rain, and Tanya all started out as red herrings but became real characters later, so there's a chance the same will happen with Floyd
6:52 DEMVRS Yeah, I got nothing either. It is interesting that the enemies could pull that kind of thing off, so perhaps there's more to do with the letters
5:47 I think that one about accidentally leaving the camera rig on was just a joke. I imagine the rig was probably very bulky and unlikely to be forgotten about.
You honestly don't get enough credit for these videos including those than contribute. Every video is entertaining because it's always something new instead of regurgitated lists from other UA-camrs. Massive props to you and Mrs Oddheader.
13:15 just want to clarify, Magnus didn't accuse Hans of using a Vibrator. That was a joke made by some random twitch chatter in Chessbrah's stream, that somehow got picked up by the mainstream media.
To clarify further, Piers Morgan is a clown and you should probably assume anything he believes is at best questionable. He's made an entire career out of making up lies about famous people who are more interesting and talented than him. Some people might think there's more to this story when you credit the "mainstream media" with it, when really it was one famously untrustworthy dude from the tabloids. If some random guy had said it, I'd be more inclined to believe it, but the source it's less trustworthy than something you'd read on the back of a public toilet door.
Yeah, its funny and memey but its actually crazy that that became one of the most well-known chess "stories" of all time and it was literally just a casual joke someone made.
wasn't it also a reference to the cheater that had vibration nodes in his shoes to tell him the optimal moves by a bystander using a chess computer and watching them?
It could always be a recolor of an existing character model or something, but with a different moveset or stats. Sure, that would be lame, but that's one way to hide it from data miners.
@@FrenchRarityI only think it's lame if you're really hoping for a new model. If the defining character trait of this ninja is being pink, I think a recolour would work just fine. The fact that it's hard to find by hacking the game makes it more unique.
@@SineN0mine3 Oh yea, I don't really care for a new model at all personally. I like learning how devs hide their stuff! I just thought some people might find the lack of new model lame, like you said.

It's not actually new knowledge. I've been a (very small) part of the Diablo 2 modding community for 15 years, and this isn't a new discovery. People noticed it over 15 years ago. Used to be used for farming loot honestly. But it was esoteric knowledge that got lost when the game faded from relevance. then D2:R brought it back and new younger people who never played the original get to be amazed finding stuff they didn't know existed. I think Odd may have misunderstood Phrozen. The change seems to be the whisps making things akin to letters. the "dance" used to be less... interesting.

I've always been a big fan of your channel. You bring back mystery to easter eggs that I haven't experienced since the PS2 days.

If I had to guess where the CoD ones are I would say World at War probably has a lot we are missing. There are several levels in the main campaign that take place in big cities where any window could be hiding a sign, any scratchmark could be a message and and any treeline could have a hidden creature that we would struggle to find them. its a varitable gold mine of maps with potential easter eggs almost in plain sight at any moment for more then half of it
@@lokitakahashi3042 As someone who used to hang out discussing D2 modding on Phrozen's site....... Runewords are super easy to data mine. If it was meant as a hint at a runeword we'd be able to see the Runeword in the files. @Oddheader Also... the "dance" as it's called.... has a bunch of randomness to it that did actually get noticed years ago. The Magic Find bit might actually be the entire point to it. Do the ritual, then go murder a boss for lootz. Not having the stat display right is possibly indicative that the D2R team didn't know it existed. Yeah, D2:R... is mostly a graphics and game engine update, but the core game logic is still the same D2. It's such a faithful remake it even copies certain BUGS from the original.
What I like about oddheader is that the discoveries and mysteries are always fresh. I see a lot of other channels that just recycle popular ones, but every time oddheader uploads I know I'll see something new. Respect 🤟
oddheader you need to review noita. The ENTIRE game is a huge secret. The game is literally unspoilable because of the next thing that the community needs to do, which is to solve the eye glyphs
The character in Strangeland is wearing a headband. The acid is hiding under his headband, giving him a contact high. The more you sweat, the more you will absorb the LSD and trip.
11:28 Shade Meadows?! *That's me in there!!* That's so cool! And Victor (creator of Strangeland) is my boss now! We're makin' new game: *Hibernaculum!*
You must not know your boss very well then, because Victor Pflug/Mords says on the commentary *within the game itself* that he didn't create Strangeland. He did the art, which is great, but don't act like he created the whole game.
@@GorBlimey72 There's no need to be rude - I never said I was the sole creator of Strangeland so there's obviously a language barrier and/or misunderstanding here. Just like the misunderstanding where I obviously was told this easter egg would be implemented in game by our coder. Would be happy to clear it ALL up publicly though, if the misunderstandings persists :)
@@hibernaculum Uhhh ok dude??? I know you didn't say you were. That's what I just said to this guy. He's putting words in your mouth and claiming he works for "the creator of Strangeland" to make himself look important so I told him he was wrong. I dunno why you're getting in my face instead of telling him to stop lying about you for clout.
I miss Seaman, it was the game that was my favorite dreamcast game and the game that made my parents sell my Dreamcast for a Playstation. They got tired of hearing me tell my friend 'Lets play with my Seaman' whenever they came over.
4:56 Holy shit, I almost forgot about that Magazine! I actually think I still have that issue lying around in a box somewhere. I absolutely loved the pixel art pencil puzzles in those things!
for the first one wouldn't the answers to trigger it be somewhere in the files? How would the game know what keywords are needed to trigger the easter egg if they aren't somewhere in the files?
The 'small element' in elden ring that miyazaki hinted could very well have been a wooden shield at the start of the game that had markings similar to a knight in the DLC that appeared not too long ago.
I admire the quality delivered by this content creator. Good research into the detail, always adding something new (it may sometimes take some time to find something new) and passionate about gaming in general.
I love watching this channel with my adult son (who has autism). We usually watch together after his feeding time (he hates the tube no matter what gauge I try so he gets cranky) and right before I drop him off for his shift at Taco Bell. This always calms him down.
Your video uploads are the highlight of my month when it comes to UA-cam at least. THANK YOU FOR DOIN THE WORK AND PUTTING THIS STUFF TOGETHER AND BEING ALTOGETHER ENTERTAINING AND INVOLVED WITHIN UR OWN COMMUNITY U ROCK
Watching these videos always makes me wonder how many secrets were discovered by accident and the player who found them didn't even know they were a unfounded mystery
Isn't there a Marriage Proposal Easter Egg in Black OPs 3, more specifically in the Zombies map Der Eisendrache? I know it isn't a CoD game he's worked on but it stands to reason he'd be within the industry enough to hear about it, no? either way, great vid as always Mr. Head
I remember finding the gloams for this D2 one many years ago before the xpac came out but passing it off as a bug since they were inexplicably non-hostile, and I think a lot of other people who came across them did as well. Most people who came across this specific spawn probably didn't even see their behavior since it becomes very ingrained in you to start blasting the second anything even remotely resembling a gloam/soul comes on screen and not stopping until they are dead. It's not a big surprise that this was never identified as an intentional easter egg then.
I wonder if the in-Game proposals are the gaming equivalent of getting your girlfriend's/boyfriend's name tattooed on you. Kinda crazy how that is yet another relationship curse.
that cod developer was probably right about these proposal easter eggs being cursed lol. i think it has the potential to say a lot about the dynamic of the relationship before the breakup, like the infamous spiderman easter egg for example: after it had gone viral and the girlfriend rejected the proposal, she revealed that she didn't even play video games. for this kind of easter egg to actually work and be sweet and thoughtful, your partner actually has to have a love for video games. otherwise it kind of falls flat and only comes off as you wanting a cool easter egg in a game you like over wanting to do a special proposal for your partner.
Funfact regarding the Cow Level: There are also Kind of similar Things in two other Games. In The Bards Tale, you can summon a extremely dangerous Cow Boss if you defeat a certain Amount of Cows (also works with Chickens) and in Fallout 1 there's a random Encounter where you run into a Herd of Brahmin and if you wait long enough, instead of moo some will say ,,Moo, I say"🙃🐄
Enh... Odd got it wrong. It was known about years ago. Just not something people did anything with other than a trick for loot farming. It's not actually known if the letters DO anything other than increase your MF temporarily. It could just be a sneaky dev trick to increase MF.
@@marhawkman303so how was he wrong? He said that the unsolved part was that nobody knows the meaning of the letters. Maybe they mean nothing, but we don't KNOW that.
@@SineN0mine3 Well, there's a core question here... HOW is the game making 4 separate enemies act in unison? I've dabbled in D2 modding enough to know that having enemies cooperate is very, very NOT NORMAL for how enemy AIs are coded. Enemy behaviors are usually triggers that cause each enemy to do it's own thing. this DID get talked about in the D2 modding community, and to my knowledge, none of the code gods was able to find anything other than "enemies are doing weird helpful stuff". The key question Odd missed. HOW are the enemies making shapes? They're either shooting each other with lightning bolts(that don't do damage), or shooting into empty space. Which... if the enemies aren't working together to write letters... then... they're just making random shapes, and seeing it as letters is.... a Rorshach test.
For anyone looking for the Beat of the Month episode where we interview Helava about Seaman, it's episode #77: Sweet Dreams - Dreamcast Interview Special! It can be found on most major podcast players. We've got a website, but when I try to link it my comments get deleted (although you can guess what it is...)
The cow level is also referenced in hearthstone! its a card back from a 2017 tavern brawl, I remember playing it back then and I have the card back so I wanted to point it out :)

i love your videos so so so much. i watch them whenever i feel down and the little puns you make always cheer me up. you’re a living legend, odd.
I love watching people trying to say sea man without sounding weird
10:28 That kind of sucks. It would've been a pretty wholesome easter egg (despite being in a war game) had the relationships not gone sour.
If I had to guess where the CoD ones are I would say World at War probably has a lot we are missing. There are several levels in the main campaign that take place in big cities where any window could be hiding a sign, any scratchmark could be a message and and any treeline could have a hidden creature that we would struggle to find them. its a varitable gold mine of maps with potential easter eggs almost in plain sight at any moment for more then half of it
diablo 2? DEMVRS , sounds like the first letters of a runeword to me , Dol - (El/ Eth /Eld) - Mal - Vex - Ral - (Sol / Sur /Shael ) . 6 socket word.
Could also potentially be the initials of devs who worked on enemy programming
@@ShadowEclipse777 who knows. could be both. the magic find boost dosent show, maybe there is a blank slate runeword for a dev weapon as well
@@lokitakahashi3042 As someone who used to hang out discussing D2 modding on Phrozen's site....... Runewords are super easy to data mine. If it was meant as a hint at a runeword we'd be able to see the Runeword in the files.
@Oddheader Also... the "dance" as it's called.... has a bunch of randomness to it that did actually get noticed years ago. The Magic Find bit might actually be the entire point to it. Do the ritual, then go murder a boss for lootz. Not having the stat display right is possibly indicative that the D2R team didn't know it existed. Yeah, D2:R... is mostly a graphics and game engine update, but the core game logic is still the same D2. It's such a faithful remake it even copies certain BUGS from the original.
The letters are dev names! And it also adds "infinite" magic find! MrLlama as a video on it :)
by @CouldBeBaked
This is an old easter egg known for 20 years, just not talked about much. And yes it spells letters of the developers.
The joy I gain from the frequency of oddheader uploads these days is unmatched
What I like about oddheader is that the discoveries and mysteries are always fresh. I see a lot of other channels that just recycle popular ones, but every time oddheader uploads I know I'll see something new. Respect 🤟
oddheader you need to review noita. The ENTIRE game is a huge secret. The game is literally unspoilable because of the next thing that the community needs to do, which is to solve the eye glyphs
me: being bored on youtube oddheader: here is a new video for you my child
2:20 I've watched equalsthree videos in the early 2010's so I've already had a fish-frogman sing about doing my mother.
The character in Strangeland is wearing a headband. The acid is hiding under his headband, giving him a contact high. The more you sweat, the more you will absorb the LSD and trip.
BABE WAKE UP! A NEW ODDHEADER VIDEO!!!!!!
FINALLY
Bro is like “I hope this comment will make people notice me again. So I’ll try it again.”
WOOOOO FUCKING LOVE ODDHEADER
HOLD ME BABE
Love the babe comments😂😂 these mfs have everything exept a bae😂
11:28
Shade Meadows?!
*That's me in there!!*
That's so cool!
And Victor (creator of Strangeland) is my boss now!
We're makin' new game: *Hibernaculum!*
This is SO cool I didn't realize you got a shoutout!!
@@hibernaculum Mords!!
Heh, Sis got so surprised to see our names (she loves this channel), we were both Surprised!
You must not know your boss very well then, because Victor Pflug/Mords says on the commentary *within the game itself* that he didn't create Strangeland. He did the art, which is great, but don't act like he created the whole game.
@@GorBlimey72 There's no need to be rude - I never said I was the sole creator of Strangeland so there's obviously a language barrier and/or misunderstanding here.
Just like the misunderstanding where I obviously was told this easter egg would be implemented in game by our coder.
Would be happy to clear it ALL up publicly though, if the misunderstandings persists :)
@@hibernaculum Uhhh ok dude??? I know you didn't say you were. That's what I just said to this guy. He's putting words in your mouth and claiming he works for "the creator of Strangeland" to make himself look important so I told him he was wrong. I dunno why you're getting in my face instead of telling him to stop lying about you for clout.
I miss Seaman, it was the game that was my favorite dreamcast game and the game that made my parents sell my Dreamcast for a Playstation. They got tired of hearing me tell my friend 'Lets play with my Seaman' whenever they came over.
The Sea Man song he used underneath the edited clips sounds EXACTLY like the Megaman NT warrior intro song. Wild LOL
4:56 Holy shit, I almost forgot about that Magazine! I actually think I still have that issue lying around in a box somewhere. I absolutely loved the pixel art pencil puzzles in those things!
Was just hoping you’d post today and YOU DID
This is the first time I've ever seen anything related to sea man in YEARS dude
for the first one wouldn't the answers to trigger it be somewhere in the files? How would the game know what keywords are needed to trigger the easter egg if they aren't somewhere in the files?
You are right however the problem is the keywords are probably encrypted which makes this task extremely time consuming to reverse engineer.
@@MichaelPohoreski yeah I was assuming there would probably be more and that its not as simple as I think.
Every time Leonard Nimoy comes up it always something weird
My little oddhead is excited
love this channel, is the only easter egg channel that survived all these years
This is classic Oddheader. Awesome video
The 'small element' in elden ring that miyazaki hinted could very well have been a wooden shield at the start of the game that had markings similar to a knight in the DLC that appeared not too long ago.
I admire the quality delivered by this content creator. Good research into the detail, always adding something new (it may sometimes take some time to find something new) and passionate about gaming in general.
Imagine proposing to the woman you love in Call of Duty. Gamer moment.
Are you saying that she wouldn't be playing the game?
I love watching this channel with my adult son (who has autism). We usually watch together after his feeding time (he hates the tube no matter what gauge I try so he gets cranky) and right before I drop him off for his shift at Taco Bell. This always calms him down.
I've watched this six times already
Your video uploads are the highlight of my month when it comes to UA-cam at least. THANK YOU FOR DOIN THE WORK AND PUTTING THIS STUFF TOGETHER AND BEING ALTOGETHER ENTERTAINING AND INVOLVED WITHIN UR OWN COMMUNITY U ROCK
13:13 This reads like a Kotaku article.
I genuinely love your lame dad-level puns. A new Odd video always brightens my day
Okay so that thumbnail violently ripped old memories from my childhood subconscious and I was not prepared
I just came back to watch this again to try and forget about the 13 minute sponsored ad he put out.
That chess game is SO familiar! My dad got it for his computer, and I played that game a lot! I loved chess when I was a kid, and still do
Just in time for my lunch break. Odd header never misses!
3:49 Miyazaki has gone on record several times saying that he doesn't play his own games, because it would be too (emotionally) overwhelming
Looks like the Easter Eggs are taking the toll on you brother.
Watching these videos always makes me wonder how many secrets were discovered by accident and the player who found them didn't even know they were a unfounded mystery
I still think about the unsolved Destiny Last Exit cypher you’ve previously mentioned. Has there been any update to that one?
Isn't there a Marriage Proposal Easter Egg in Black OPs 3, more specifically in the Zombies map Der Eisendrache?
I know it isn't a CoD game he's worked on but it stands to reason he'd be within the industry enough to hear about it, no? either way, great vid as always Mr. Head
EE is not related to Jesse Snyder, but it's very good that you reminded us about it 😍
I remember finding the gloams for this D2 one many years ago before the xpac came out but passing it off as a bug since they were inexplicably non-hostile, and I think a lot of other people who came across them did as well.
Most people who came across this specific spawn probably didn't even see their behavior since it becomes very ingrained in you to start blasting the second anything even remotely resembling a gloam/soul comes on screen and not stopping until they are dead. It's not a big surprise that this was never identified as an intentional easter egg then.
I love how at 4:11 he puts Mrs. Odd as his gift. Very clever and sweet!
I wonder if the in-Game proposals are the gaming equivalent of getting your girlfriend's/boyfriend's name tattooed on you. Kinda crazy how that is yet another relationship curse.
So glad I’m up at mid night to watch this the same day it comes out😅
It’s a good day when there’s a new Oddheader vid
love this channel and the commuinity that makes it possible. every video is a bangurr
Floyd reminds me so much of Ermac back in the original Mortal Kombat
4:57 Wow, I actually own that magazine. I don't remember where it is but it's in some box packed away.
that cod developer was probably right about these proposal easter eggs being cursed lol. i think it has the potential to say a lot about the dynamic of the relationship before the breakup, like the infamous spiderman easter egg
for example: after it had gone viral and the girlfriend rejected the proposal, she revealed that she didn't even play video games.
for this kind of easter egg to actually work and be sweet and thoughtful, your partner actually has to have a love for video games. otherwise it kind of falls flat and only comes off as you wanting a cool easter egg in a game you like over wanting to do a special proposal for your partner.
Funfact regarding the Cow Level:
There are also Kind of similar Things in two other Games.
In The Bards Tale, you can summon a extremely dangerous Cow Boss if you defeat a certain Amount of Cows (also works with Chickens) and in Fallout 1 there's a random Encounter where you run into a Herd of Brahmin and if you wait long enough, instead of moo some will say ,,Moo, I say"🙃🐄
Love the storytelling in your videos!
There are so many things lost in those old 90s Video Game Mags. I miss the Video Game Players Magazine aprilfools with Jurassic Pork and such.
I had a real big smile seeing you had a new video. Thank you!!!
Black OPs 3 has still the impossible Easter Egg that was never been solved/found
That Diablo egg is huge, omg.
Enh... Odd got it wrong. It was known about years ago. Just not something people did anything with other than a trick for loot farming.
It's not actually known if the letters DO anything other than increase your MF temporarily. It could just be a sneaky dev trick to increase MF.
@@marhawkman303so how was he wrong? He said that the unsolved part was that nobody knows the meaning of the letters.
Maybe they mean nothing, but we don't KNOW that.
@@SineN0mine3 Well, there's a core question here... HOW is the game making 4 separate enemies act in unison?
I've dabbled in D2 modding enough to know that having enemies cooperate is very, very NOT NORMAL for how enemy AIs are coded.
Enemy behaviors are usually triggers that cause each enemy to do it's own thing. this DID get talked about in the D2 modding community, and to my knowledge, none of the code gods was able to find anything other than "enemies are doing weird helpful stuff".
The key question Odd missed. HOW are the enemies making shapes? They're either shooting each other with lightning bolts(that don't do damage), or shooting into empty space.
Which... if the enemies aren't working together to write letters... then... they're just making random shapes, and seeing it as letters is.... a Rorshach test.
Wow, I've played Diablo 2 so many hours and didn't know about that. That's wild.
I was NOT expecting Diablo 2 and definitely wasn't expecting something I didn't know about diablo 2. This is why I love your videos
@divinedoodoo I agree Diablo 2 is such an interesting game.
This is so much better than the ad.
Sad to not see Noita Eyes mystery in this video
I literally hang in for these uploads, these videos are incredible, thanks again oddheader for your continued service in providing us entertainment ❤
Yesterday I was thinking about when a new video would come out! And today a new ODDHEADER video is out!
BABE WAKE UP A NEW ODDHEADER TOP 8 HAS DROPPED
Wow, just wow, still undiscovered EE after all these years, incredible
There is no cow level
For anyone looking for the Beat of the Month episode where we interview Helava about Seaman, it's episode #77: Sweet Dreams - Dreamcast Interview Special! It can be found on most major podcast players. We've got a website, but when I try to link it my comments get deleted (although you can guess what it is...)
I paused the video and came back... When was I looking at Prince Ruperts drops?.. Oh no it's just seaman.
Low key though… thank you for changing the BGM 😊
Secret cow level?
"There is no cow level"
*Cheat Enabled*
Yeeeee starcraft+broodwar
only reference I knew about
Why does the seamen “song” sound like the instrumentals were taken from megaman NT warrior?!? Same soundbyte at 00:48 on the NT warrior intro
Youre the first person I've seen mention this!
@@wolfmiremcthorn9696 Idk why, I’m just an idiot online with some weird quirks… I may be wrong, but to me they sound alike…
@@Ariaofeffect megaman nt warrior was just niche I guess. Just happy to see someone actually caught it!
The cow level is also referenced in hearthstone! its a card back from a 2017 tavern brawl, I remember playing it back then and I have the card back so I wanted to point it out :)
Oddheader is the 🐐 ......no SECRETS there.
I was today years old when I realized Rain being purple is Purple Rain
purple rain. pink floyd. come on dude
