How players pushed a Merging game to its limit
ฝัง

- A user named "TheBirbsWord" released a Roblox game called "Merge!" on January 24th, 2021. The goal is to merge two of the same balls to make a bigger ball, this process continues up until the twentieth and last ball is obtained. However five final balls were added and players would end up pushing this game to it's limit.

cool video
i guess i gotta add more levels to new merge lol
Birb, on the maps can you uh remove some collisions for pillars and other deco balls tend to get stuck or sometimes for me they get sent out and sometimes don’t respawn?
Yea you should I still have enough ball 20s to make a ball 22
its thebirbsword!!
hi birb!!!! you released the classic 11 days after my birthday!!!
That is so. Awesome yes
So, basically, a lot of people were scammed out of a lot of money, spent on a shitty merge game on balls that ultimately wouldn't even stick around, rendering their purchases ultimately meaningless in about a week when the server they spend their money on crashes.
pretty much yeah but it was expected
@SlashedWasTaken free money glitch for millions of robux
To be fair, if you spent that much money on a roblox game about merging balls, you kinda had it coming
@@Skia_Woodling If people are willing to spend absurds amounts of money on your product you at the very least should give them a good product on a moral level else you're making just another scam.
@@isaacargesmith8217This isn't a scam.
This is a casino.
honestly birbs should consider adding a save feature where you can save and load your progress across private servers
in merge classic as well I mean
He said he isnt supporting merge classic because it ahs terribe scripting
@@SomeRandomGuyDDDhow can you mess up scripting on a game as basic as this
@@GamingForeverEpicthey were probably still inexperienced the time they made thay game.
I'm unfamilar with roblox, wouldn't that allow to edit the savefile really easily?
@@thepaperperson_gay that’s not how that works, it doesn’t save locally, it’ll save to the game itself, which means the saves will be stored in roblox servers technically.
For anyone wondering what ball 25 looks like, it’s got the same face as
Paul but with a money texture and angry eyes. It’s in the zip file in the description
you can see ball 25 at the bottom left corner at 13:05
@@santiagodellarosa9405 its actually bottom right corner

What's the description?
Cant see it @@santiagodellarosa9405
Maybe the end point should be a ball that destroys itself as soon as it's created, letting players know that you've reached the end.

Hi
Talking about TheBirbsWord, Find The Ducks could also be interesting. So much effort put into a game, less than 3 active players a day. Really an interesting story.
yeah i agree
true
Yeah, I would also consider him to talk about find the chomiks, the puzzles there are insane
@@stupidstinkymarkerthen find the markers
@@createmations7892no
for those who doesnt know who Reggie is: He is a cube from an obby, or tower, called ToCOF (Tower of Client Object Frenzy) and he used to be pretty popular in JToH
Find the reggies
Wow your smart for remembering a character from the most forgettable tower in jtoh
nice
Haha! That's a really nice Easter egg, instead of it just being random.
hey i was a find the reggies developer
I remember to keep ourself not being bored. We would name the balls and keep them as pets. One ball was named Jerry the other was named Bob. And when they merged we will decide who's ball is whos. I dont remember much but when we got to ball 20 We named it "Harry-Stewie Ghostcube" a collection of the servers 3 favorite balls
The creative mind crazy ig
Crazy Genius
bro i am baffled at how you do this and never go "if i am this bored maybe i should do anything else"
@@martinszymanski2607The grind never ends.
if balls did get flung out of the map, it would just respawn back. ive had a couple cases where exploiters would spin really fast and flinging yhe balls, and instead of deleting our progress they ended up just helping us mixing the balls easier lol
I went into this video completely uninterested, but by the time it was finished i was really captivated, and now I'm mad I never got to see what ball 25 looks like lol
Same lol
exact same here, it autoplayed and i first i thought this is stupid and now im mad about not seeing ball 25
ball 25 is paul but with a robux texture you can see it if you download the “ball index” file in the video description
A ball 25 has been achieved in a different game

Same, I nearly died when I saw this video
13:04 the 25 ball is the watermelon looking ball on the right to the king of diamonds card, it looks small but i searched up all the balls in merge and it showed me them all (ofc except ball 25) and that was the only ball i couldnt find
Thanks, King
It makes sense
Even in a merging game, determination can and will do anything to go beyond the impossible.
This is like the roblox gaming equivalent of scientists searching for more elements in the periodic table
legit exactly what I was thinking
Watched this whole video just to find out y’all never get ball 25 and it was just glossed over. Literally wtf dude lock in get ball 25 and finish this shit
Do it then
This turned from a game about balls into an entire mathematical and financial disaster
thank god my merge fanmade fangame doesn't have p2w
you've started a revolution and in half a day we're already at ball 20
At that pace you would get ball 23 at the 4th day
@@SadFaceMan201 we got ball 23 shortly after i posted that comment but unfortunately the server was shut down

In merge fanmade, I was a part of getting ball 25. I’m glad it happened. But it crashed soon after. Everything lost. Some exploiters joined and did silly stuff but we did it. At last. It has no players rn.

In merge fanmade, I helped (sorta) make ball 27 in a private server
how does it lok
Yes same!
i was in a server with alot of people in merge fanmade and we were so close to merging 2 james the 25's ( the 25th ball ) but the game crashed

This is honestly the most I have been invested in a roblox video in quite some time. This is such an interesting topic to cover and the way you cover this is pretty nice.
I think you found a good niche with these types of videos. Your bio says you're 16 and if that's so, that's insane you're able to make content like this. Your channel's gonna do great.
checking the bio also states the channel was created in 2007... wait that's 16 years ago hold u-
Wat
This video was boring as hell. I only kept watching because I had an open mind and wanted to see if it would go anywhere after explaining this game is only intended for getting money 3 minutes in.
@@pvzfan4208yeah i mean its a niche - not for everyone
The chanel IS 16 years old, I doubt the person running it is tho
I don't know what the point of the video is, but I can't help but feel like it's nothing but a good look into how insanely easy it is to make a predatory game. Of course people are gonna wanna see every funny looking ball and literally all it had to do was it make it take an unreasonable amount of time to get every ball and make the game so poorly that it crashes over and over and over so you quite literally have to spend money to get everything. It's not even a grind like a clicker at that point, you're not paying to skip the wait time, but to guarantee you get to see the last ball. I'm happy for anyone who had a good time with this game without spending money, but everyone who did waste their hard earned cash, I'm sorry you were preyed on by such a shitty game.
''im nothing like yall niggas''
@@claud639no no, hes got a point
@@faqihawang236 Ball 25 was revealed (not legit) long ago what are you on
@@SomeRandomGuyDDD the comment was not talkin about ball 25 bro 😅
This is completely unrelated to the video, but in the JToH map, the cyan block in the Citadel of Laptop Splitting tower frame is unanchored. If you get there, you can push it down into the ball pit. It doesn't do anything except sit there, but it could potentially be used as a helper for dupes?
hi exile
@@sploshsploosh dude how tf u found this
@@sploshsploosh hi splosh sploosh
the only winner here is birb’s wallet with all that p2w😅
13:08 the 2 sea green balls have a distinct texture, not like any of the materials for any of the balls. if you look at any of the other balls, they do not have a seagreen color or texture like that. it is possible those 2 are ball 25
They are because I looked in the files and yes they look like that
where is ball 25
look for a seagreen ball
like the beach looking ball?@@Fredbearfromfnaf4
This is a very solid and well-rounded video! i really enjoyed it.
and no, that pun was _definitely_ not intended
🤨
Fun fact: if ball 100 existed, it would take about 15 sextillion years without p2w to get it
Haha sex
wow
This was so interesting to watch! I almost can’t believe I watched through all 17 minutes of this without skipping anything. Presentation of the information was wonderful.
I actually played this game quite a bit for a little bit, interesting to see how insane people would spend inorder to reach the endgoal.
This video is so well made and fun, I've never heard of this game but it sounds amazing. Thanks for making this video! You've gained a new sub.
Dude the memories!! I was in the server to reach ball 20 for the first time and I remember the dude buying 1K balls at least 6 times. When we reached ball 20, birb joined the game and did a sword fighting royal while we are all dressed up as dinosaurs lol. And I don’t mean to flex or anything (totally flexing) but, I won the royal. I remember those times years ago man…
If anyone is interested in proof, I guess lmk
i'd liek to watch the sword fight if u've got a video@@oscarmean21
Videos like this always make my day and get me interested in things i never knew existed.
We need to see a group of huge Roblox TH-camrs all come together and pour their money into the game so we can see ball 25… which will never happen
that watermelon thing in the king red diamond card
I really like these longer videos that cover something interesting, very good video!
so no one actually achived ball 25 in roblox, you mean..? why am i upset rn bcs of it dude, whats up w/ my life
It's because the video hyped the ball up so much leaving you with a clickbait
@@sonicwaveinfinitymiddwelle8555 Did you think about searching the index
Thank you so much I was sitting here for like 5 minutes trying to find a video❤
Ball 21-25 are added in the new merge game
But they dont look same as the old one
And ball 25 is obtained due to a dupe glitch with save and load
i'm genuinely shocked someone has made a video on Merge! of all things, i remember begging birbword to restore maybe every 2 hours since servers were so unstable
also i was under the impression that guy spent R$200,000 haha, i got to see 24 before it ultimately died which i'm happy about
Man this guy is underrated!
The editing fire
The comedy hilarious
The talking chef kiss
i love finding these underrated channels occasionally, this channel really deserved the 1 million views on their last video
Great video. Enjoyable the whole way through.
great video once again Slashed!! super well made, sad that no one has reached 25 yet :(

Such a clever system to squeeze crazy amounts of money out of children with access to their parents credit cards
This video is so incredibly silly and i love hearding about small niche subcommunities, so in other words, love your channel!
one of the best videos ive seen in a while, pleasee keep uploading neaiched vids like this
I entered one server today,the time of the server was 37000+,Wow,and the best ball was 19,I love how much effort they put in this game.
don’t even play roblox but this was a very entertaining video 👍 always good to see videos from small creators
just checked ur channel out and you have a video with over a million views and ur only 16!!!!! wow. can’t imagine me in a year doing something like that
thank you for using HOME songs in the vid, i love them, listened for years
you have an insane talent dude! keep making these videos
i dont play roblox but still found this video pretty interesting
genuinely insane how much dedication some ppl have to this tiny little game
seeds!!
I like how obfuscation is so good that i can hear any large number in robux and not hear anything about or think about money or anything, never understanding how much is spent.
1 robux is worth around 1 cent (0.01 USD) so just divide the robux by 100 and you have your dollars spent.
Wow, that's pretty interesting. I never heard of this game until now. I gotta check it out. I enjoy people's favorite Roblox stories that they have with the games they play. That is pretty crazy the length they went too try to get ball 25.
Keep the streak going man!
This is a really well made video
Yo man, checked your channel. Apparently this is your 5th video that blew up. Congrats! love videos like this that have soul & time put in them. Thank you & good luck in future endeavors!
P.S. If you ever will decide to become full-time video-maker & make something like this, you won't regret it. Give it a try if you'll ever could :>
As one of the people who spent days in the new merge game and contributed a lot, we did get balls 21, 22, 23 and 24 in the new game. And we did so before this video was released so I think you should make a vid on that
dawg this video was balls! (sorry i needed to do that) but your narrative is actually fire, new sub bro
Ball 24 was just reached in New Merge after 9 days of the server being up. Huge milestone
next is 25 :)
This is really cool I love when people try to do stuff in groups nvm wish I could be a part of things like this lol
love the editing!
You… NEED MORE SUBSCRIBERS, underated af.
i love how some groups of people can make simple mechanics or games into a complex math exam with tricks and glitches
i remember playing this game back when it used to be popular. its sad to see it dead but i have memories with my friends from it that will last
yeah :(
Of course it’s dead, no sane person would touch this game for longer than a minute. Guess some people don’t react as fast when touching a hot stove.
@@pvzfan4208then again, some mfs be built different and will casually touch hot stuff without problems
@dominikrni Lmao
W vid this is the first time i have seen you and im already subbed
this is actually really good content, i dont play roblox anymore but damn this is entertaining
Take a shot for every time SlashedPort says ‘balls’, youd be dead
I love this game so seeing someone talking about it! Even though I got banned for a day? But your a good TH-camr and don’t worry I’m ok!
great song choices by the way!!
Watching someone talk about balls for 17 minutes is very entertaining
so many balls! Hope you can hit 20k subs soon!
If anyone is interested, there’s a ball index in the description, and it says ball 25 is Paul
great documentary! I like how not knowing the identity of ball 25 makes you want to keep watching.
Awesome research on topic of balls out here! I really love balls. I tried to merge them irl, but it was sad experience
Yeah they just got crushed for me :(
you sound like nilered
consuming uranium (safe)
epic video u should do more roblox vids like this
This game is ridiculously simple but really fun. When i first found it i played for hours
watching this bc i'm on a youtube hole but this is honestly so dumb that the antagonist of this conflict is just shitty servers and a negligent game dev that won't back up/restore servers when they crash. I'm sure it was fun but man, just ridiculous
ball 25 doesnt have a badge, so i dont know
Sad to see we still have no idea what ball 25 looks like
you should make a video over jtoh if you haven’t already, the game you mentioned at the start of the video. the game and you both deserve a lot more recognition and it would be pretty entertaining to watch.
This is actually the first time you popped up on my feed.
HOOOOOOLY its you
13:46
the little "FU-" here though
Something new in real merge is that ball 21 -25 has been added meaning that it’s now possible to get
bro wtf both this and your password game video are super well made, keep it up man you’ve clearly got a knack for this
I just want to say that I paused the video as soon as you said the index was in the description and read the entire thing
this is such a beautiful and well made video! made a very niche topic super interesting. ill forever be wondering what is ball 25.
I played this game before, and tbh I hope it has a update on the servers so it not kick you out
I have played merged before, I am glad someone made a video about it! There is a newer version of the game to lol
slashedport, the last 5 balls were added to the new merge. the hunt begins.
Also, in the new Merge! there is a feature where if you have more than 100 balls, automerge will merge balls automatically by moving balls towards eachother.
NO! BALL 22 HAS BEEN FLUNGED! + BALL 21 - BALL 25 IS HERE!
This whole video blue-balls for ball 25
maybe ball 25 are the friends we made along the way
I have to respect a man making a "History Of" video and using the Summoning Salt music.
The 25 ball will never be reached😢
11:49 So they used cytokinesis to merge balls together like cells.
There was innuendos all across this video and i loved it
Great storytelling
love spending 17 minutes of my life listening to some dude talk about balls and their sizes
