Finally a platformer based on the imaginary man running parallel to the car we all thought of as kids
Mine rode a skateboard and did super long grinds on fences and telephone wires.
@@MudakTheMultiplier Nice, mine was running along the walls of a supermarket, when were going home.
glad i wasnt the only one to think this
mine was a laser cutting everything in two...
Wait, that wasn't just me? Holy shit.
watching tyler play a puzzle game before bed has become so engrained into my nightly routine I don’t think I’d be able to sleep if he skipped an upload
So true.
Meanwhile 6:30 AM there.
Bro I've been here since 2017 your stuck here every night.
@@rbee4387 We all are.
apart of my morning routine
I really love how more of the music kicks in when you start controlling the little dude
But then Tyler had a very good idea, he used F5, see, using F5 gave him a whole new perspective, and he was able to move in a way he wouldn't have been able to before.
Goat reference
seawattgaming reference
Reference of the year
Lol
yes
A speed run of this game would probably looks insane
Search the GDQ channel - they’ve had it on their main marathon twice.
I think there was one at gdq at one point and yeah it was pretty nuts
Anyone find a link?

0:26 I never realized how horrifying a naked, bald Tyler lunging at me to take my soul would be until right now.
The whole game, the feel, the music, the designs, it feels like a nostalgic flash game
Probably because it’s from 2012
It was from 2012, so for me this *is* nostalgic
yeah i heard about it around 2012 and played it then. Very very nostalgic for me
I can feel the exitment of the devs when this mechanics finally worked, i cannot imagine the hours they spent staring blankly at code
Yeah, watching this in programming class (i already did all my work) just makes me wonder how the heck does this work on a programming level
@@LoraLoibu if I had to guess, whenever the player goes into that 2d view, the game does some sort of raycast from the player pov & bases the playable ground from what the rays pick up. Or the vertices of visible blocks are cast to the player then lines are drawn connecting the blocks
@@Spacious_Potato Couldn't you also just process the screen itself for the colors to create a temporary screen of collision? (I say just, of course it'd be pretty complicated lol)
@@exister6652 Yeah, I can see that working, but I still think just taking the lines would be more efficient. You only have to deal with a few lines max per cube, vs a bunch of pixels. Plus if implemented wrong, you could end up with choppy slopes, so you would likely need to smooth the pixels.
That's one of my favorite things about coding, there are just about a thousand ways to handle any scenario.
@@Spacious_Potato Maybe you could also have each corner of any square as a God point, and whenever you pause the screen, use the four God points of each face to construct rectangles of collision. Also yeah 100% the different ways to solve (and to be honest, accidentally create) problems is one of the coolest things about code.
What's even more impressive is this game was made by college students for a class, and if I recall right, some of them went on to help create the Portal games at Valve.
Right college, wrong games. Check out “Narbacular Drop” for the team behind Portal, and “Tag: The Power of Paint” for the team behind Portal 2
I don't think this team went on to portal. That was another group at Digipen their group had made a portal game with a dungeon / magic aestethic iirc. This game was made a few years later iirc.
@@EmilBjrn - The Portal team did a student game called Narbacular Drop, which was basically the same mechanically to the original Portal. The people who made _another_ student game, "Tag: The Power of Paint" got hired to help make Portal 2 - which was basically Portal, but with Tag's spraypaint mechanic :P
Sadly, the Perspective team didn't get hired to make Portal 3 to mash up portals with paint and perspective mechanics, but that's not surprising given how high Valve can count.
@@KingBobXVI Interestingly, F-Stop (a prototype for Portal 2) had some perspective-based mechanics.
Looks like there are some sneaky secrets in some of the earlier levels.
this gives me so much nostalgia, I played this several times and recommended it to anyone who would listen. I was so upset when I thought you weren't going to include the best scene at the end, but it turned out alright. Great video!
Same! Nostalgia ensues
Peak meta ending. Props to his editor
That's actually just how the game ends, not editing. (though the editors have been smashing it out of the park recently)
This is one of my favorite childhood games! I played an open demo of it at Digipen shortly after its release (One of the developers actually showed me it). Definitely one of the most unique puzzle games I've played!
So much fun just watching Tyler play perspective
Man, I just love the detail in the editing, like he sees the long hallway and a PNG of the backrooms appears. So good.
Aliensrock out here keeping me up for 26 minutes longer.
Tyler always keeps me up at night. Especially when he does pegging
The editor sneaking in the backrooms at 2:17 is peak comedy, i swear every youtube editor has the best comedy.
I'm a little shocked at how well the concept works! This feels like it has not been easy to make
This is the first video of yours I'm not going to watch, this actually looks like an incredible game that I want to check out. Thanks for sharing it.
I played this game right after it first was published! I totally forgot about it and you're bringing back so many great memories! This is such a great experience. I hope you enjoy it even a fraction as much as I did.
I've watched the speedrun for this game before and it's so satisfying
watching Tyler's playthrough is just as satisfying, but in a different way of course
Oh my god, I just remembered playing this game years ago as a kid! Can’t believe I’m seeing it again now!
I have been hoping to see you play this game for so long. It’s such a great game and I knew you would give it a good showing.
Now that's a classic ass puzzle game. Stoked to see you playing it!
oh i loved when Yogscast played this game a loooong time ago! so happy to see Tyler play it now!
So that’s where I remember this from. What a blast from the past.
That video of them playing this is a core childhood memory. I've since played through this game a bunch of times. The people at DigiPen who made this knocked it out of the park.
I remember watching a playthrough of this game years ago, glad to see you taking a look at some older games like this! 💙🧡
Now there's a blast from the past, I remember seeing it on NerdCubed's channel a VERY long time ago (back when he was still doing Three Free Games Fridays). Cool to see really old student-project games getting rediscovered!
Thank you for the video Tyler and editors!
So excited for Tyler to play one of my favorite games.
YES FINNALLY I have been asking for this forever!!!! thank you tyler.
I know that I have seen this game before, but seeing Tyler playing it brings me so much joy
I’ve only seen two other games with this perspective idea, and this one pulls of the concept just as well if not better
Holy shit I've actually played this game years before and now watching tyler play it gives me first timer joy all over again
Watching these while almost asleep/high is a crazy experience
broooo i loved this game like 11 years ago thank you for bringing it back!!
I literally haven't thought about this game for 7 years and the day I looked up this game one of my favorite youtubers played it the same day. Love this game and idea.
Oh damn, I remember seeing another youtuber play this game back when it was released in 2012, but I couldn't remember the name of it. Glad to see it pop up in my recommendations!
I've been watching Tyler for so long that I've realized that I just want to have him on in the background. I have barely paid any attention to this video and yet my anxiety has gone down since I pressed play.
Therapy is expensive, Tyler just asks me to watch a couple ads.
This puzzle mechanic rivals Portal for me in terms of it's mindbendiness the first time you play it. I love this game so much. It has a great vibe too, it's spaces are somewhat liminal in nature, long before people were obsessed with "liminal spaces".
I love this game. Such a fun concept. I can't believe this is an final exam project. I still remember lots of it fondly eventhough last I played it was like 10 years ago.
TYLER FINALLY PLAYING PERSPECTIVE!
I used to love it..
i've been waiting for someone big to cover this for years now!
yoooo
I played and beat this game as a kid literally years ago
man I'm so happy tyler decided to pick it up today
❤
I find it amazing that people can create such mind bending mechanics. Bravo!
That had a semi “TRON” vibe with the red and blue stuff going on. Neat game.
When the end card displayed I was disappointed that we wouldn't get to see your reaction to that last gimmick, so glad I stuck around
I really like the look of this game. I wish it was longer and had co-op because I know at least one of my friends would really be down to play this game with me.
I remember watching Grayfruit play this game. That's the video where he got upset at people making a big deal of looking at his files that showed up on screen
Oh my goodness, i remember playing this waaayy back when i was a kid
It reshaped my _whole_ world view
Super nostalgic!
I'm presently surprised to see this game reach the light of day again -its incredibly old ! It was released in 2012 by students I believe and I originally saw it played by the yogscast in their golden days I'm happy to see it again tho and will definelty play through it again
I remember playing this years ago and the sound track SLAPS
This is a fantastic idea and execution of a puzzle game
this brings back so much memories from like 2014
i really wish there was more in the game- would love that
I remember playing this like a decade ago, love this game
Oh wow. Surprised to see this come up. Been playing this for years. Has always been an underappreciated "gem" for lack of a better word.
Did I just see Tyler’s face on the character of this crazy perspective-oriented 3D world puzzle?
This game was FASCINATING, I wish it was longer but the ride was still very enjoyable
Wow, I remember this game. Very cool concept. I remember it being pretty short tho
I love being able to watch your content every night, the perfect ending to my day.
Tyler, you need to play Vampire Survivor’s Moonglow stage as it has one of the most important things ever added in an update.
Excellent video Barry!
gotta love how music changes when switching between modes
This is a really neat concept! I've had a similar idea before, but not quite this- this is better than my idea!
I love how every time you swap to control of the little guy the music has an 8 bit leitmotif playing
I remember finding hotshot playing this before league in like 2010? Or something and getting hooked. Thanks for reminding me this gem.
I remember playing this game in 2012, I couldn't get very far. But Tyler surpassed me in like 6 minutes 😭 🤣
This give me so much nostalgia. It's the first game I encounter that scared me because the ending is mind blowing. I immediately close the laptop and went to bed because I thought I encounter a virus, that cause the wallpaper to fall down.
This game is old. I was only a teen back then.
This game is so cool, please make more!!
Props to the editor for the "Hey guys Barry here" moment, laughed our asses off over it multiple times
Hi Tyler. Love your videos. I think you might have been on the next level at 21:02 arcade cabinet was facing away from your perspective.
This game is just so cool. And the speedrun is ridiculous. There are so many angles you can do with this design.
I was 100% expecting this game to pull a superliminal with the size but I was surprised when the dude shrinks
Daily shoutout to editor. Great job as usual.
I was partially expecting the game to continue in my browser when I exited fullscreen on the video.
I remember playing it, when it came out. Totally worth it for the unique experience.
That’s so cool the little guy actually stays the same size on screen the whole time
The speedrun of this game sounds like it would be fun to watch
I actually can't believe this old underrated classic FINALLY got covered by a big TH-camr
this is the most creative game ive seen in a while
i do not remember where i first saw this but this video unlocked a deep and long forgotten past
I haven’t thought of this game in freaking YEARS.
I played this game a while ago! It's pretty short, but VERY good!
I remember watching the yogscast play this back in the day. Still fun to watch.
Omg i remember playing this ages ago, the nostalgia
Ohh, that's an old one. That's a really really cool game
It's been so long since played this, the memories
In the mobochromatic zone I think their was a bonus level on the Sideways machine at 21:00
This is like a combination of super paper Mario's 2d to 3d mechanic and superliminal's cool perception is reality gimmick
This video just unlocked a memory from when I played this back in middle school
OH MY GOD IVE HAD THIS GAMEIN THE DEEPEST PITS OF MY MIND BECAUSE OF NERDCUBES VIDEO 10 ACTUAL YEARS AGO AND IVE BEEN LOOKING SO LONG OH MY GOD THANK YOU THANK YOU
Not gonna finish the vid cuz I wanna play it by myself. Good luck, Tyler!
i think i watched this game like 7 years ago cool to see it again
this game and this video tingles my brain with serotonin :>
I was late but still watched the video all the way through thank you for the entertainment Tyler
0:28 that jumpscare me so bad
I remember playing either a demo or a beta of this game years and years ago. It's so weird seeing it now.
the ending to this one is so cool
This one is a classic at this point!
After watching this video i keep just seeing different platforming puzzles in my own house
