NL is actually doing a great service for this game. He's making it painful enough to watch that people feel like they have to buy it to do what he can't
After I watched the first video I was so frustrated he didn’t solve the last puzzle I immediately bought the game just to finish it. Haven’t put it down since.
@@Amenumenemana8 it may be a solution, i don't know, i solved it by doing wall is shut, star is open, star is push, then you can open the wall like its a door. The open and shut mechanics are a little hard to get your head round, shut means is a door, open means is a key
@@hoorahforsnakes Well I thought this was the mechanic. But with there being a stop. Shut only really makes sense to be a way for something to be opened.
I love how you can see that the first level gives him a slightly flawed routine, which continues to fuck him over throughout the whole video before he figures out the solutions to the other levels.
omg this is hilarious, every time he thinks he has it he gets so excited, then it doesn't work and he's so dissapointed. It is like child trying to fit square block through circle hole, and is always convinced it will work.
You absolutely should, easily worth the cost. Although watching him after you've already solved the puzzle is 10x worse than being just as stumped as him.
and once again you have my neighbours thinking that I shout some random bullshit while I'm sleeping or something, because there is no other logical explanation why I keep saying "baba is you, rock is you!"
It bugs me that throughout that 1st level though he doesnt learn that and could have been used there and he would have learned how to control 2 characters and not have to change them both
Yep, he made me buy slay the spire to see if he was just stupid or it was IMPOSSIBLE (he's just stupid) and now he will make me buy this too, looks fun though, and I had/ am having a blast with slay the spire
@@lucasnadamas9317 Same exact reason I bought StS. Unfortunately, that means I can't watch this series for a bit, because I don't want to ruin the puzzles.
I don't think it's that complicated given that the game has already done its best to teach you that OPEN destroys SHUT, but @@PedanticPig makes a very good point honestly
23:55 NL: "Yo, don't do this to me Baba is you" *starts pushing Is to Wall* me: "oh, he's finally got it" NL: *Pushes open to wall* "The wall's open brother" me: *internally screaming*
NL hasn't figured out how to back out a win condition based on keywords that cannot be moved/manipulated yet FailFish... also, he seems to not understand the difference between words and objects LUL
oh my god he was so close with wall is key, and he understands the rule that to open something it needs to be shut finally. he just needs to wall is shut, then star is open so he can open the friggin walls dude, he has all the keys to the kingdom. this actually gives me more stress than anything else
13: wall is shut, star is open, push the star into a wall, boom 10: if the key touches the door, both are destroyed, yeah? but you can move only the wall and not the key, yeah??? roles are reserved. the key is a door in disguise. you must control the door to move into the key.
I love how the music ends abruptly when you fuck up. You are in the silence left by the tune you barely even noticed, where you can ponder your failings as baba stares at you or is turned into a stone.
I picked this game up for myself after the first episode, only 6 minutes into this one and so far you've completely every puzzle in a completely different way to me. I love the fact that that's possible.
I love how this game makes me string together meaningless sentences, like "The wall is stop, but it's not shut, so you need to shut it so that you can open it and get to the win!".
Ryan for the extra level, Push Rock to "Rock is you" and move it to the main room near the crabs. Then make "baba is you" again. Push "baba is you" all the way down, keep rock is push and push the rock past the crabs using the "Baba is you text", then move "rock" and "is" so it becomes "Rock is you" and you win.
He needs to learn that a few things come in pairs. Open, doesn't mean you can walk through it, it means that when something "open" and something "shut" are on the same tile, they destroy each other. Same with anything not floating, and sink.
the best thing i love about this series is NL is incredibly smart at a lot of things and then i realize the amount of stuff that he is stupid on, still out numbers that.
I have a feeling this is going to be a short series with the amount of levels our egg is skipping. He'll soon run out of levels to skip. I will say though I'd be disappointed if I'm right because this is very entertaining as someone who's already beaten these levels.
it's so fun watching people start this game having no clue what they are doing and not seeing stuff that is blatently obvious if you have played through the game
My brain is physically hurting from watching him repeatedly trying to jam a key into a door, but I can't stop watching because it makes it so satisfying when he finally realizes that he was holding the key the wrong way. Please send help (and no I don't mean the game, this was just a short way of explaining it) *kill me
The absolute despair of Ryan against the adversity of these puzzles is peak comedy to me . I laugh my ass off every time he realizes his plan doesn't work or abandons a level. Thank you for imbuing us with a sense of superiority egg-san .
18:46 move the is & door from "door is shut" to the left of "you" now door is you, use door to come and steal the is from "keke is you" and move it to before the door. Now you have "is door is you" then shove the entire thing to the left once so "key is door is you" key becomes door, move door to make flag is win, move to flag
26:00 I think you almost had it. My solution is to make star is open & wall is shut. I *believe* that things which are shut are destroyed by things which are open, letting you push a star into the wall and destroy it, then you just make wall is win
This game is all about thinking of creative ways to solve puzzles. There's nothing in this game that is solidly defined. Everything can be everything. Once NL realizes that some more, he'll be able to solve these puzzles a little easier. But it's definitely not the type of game where one can say "THE ANSWER IS RIGHT THERE" because not everyone can immediately think in the 20th dimension! I know NL'll figure it out.
Possible solution to extra level: duplicate your babas BEFORE you make crab defeat, and wedge one of them in that little pocket with the flag while you push the statements so that flag is win
How NLs mind functions i will never know. All the solutions are sitting infront of him and he just keeps trying the same thing lol I love this man but holy shit.
Star is Open, Wall is shut, push star into wall and make a way out to get the IS WIN condition from the outside? Never played the game just playing along with the video and guessing that's how it's supposed to be solved
23:48 NL:"Well door is not 'shut' right now, it's 'stop' so the door is a wall" 24:03 Also NL: "The wall is 'open', brother" Love you NL, never change....but maybe just a bit
in submerged ruins, you needed to make it so baba is you & rock is you, then move baba into the flag room BEFORE moving the crab&flag over, then use the rock, which is now you, to move over Crab & flag. Your strategy of making the rock a baba would have worked too, you just needed to do it BEFORE moving crab & flag
Solution I thought up to the last one: make wall shut and make star open, unlock one part of the wall with the star, move the key statement in the top right so that key is no longer defeat, make key is win true, win with the key
I want to propose a solution before we see part 3, because I think he was on the right track for level 13 1. Wall is Key is Stop- all wall is key now 2. push Wall into the key so it is not in the command (may or may not be necessary?) 3. Star is Push is Open 4. Key is Shut 5. push the star into any key, unlocking a wall to leave from now you just make Key not Defeat, move whatever you want into the Win command, and you are The Best Egg Daddy.
Thanks for the video. Really enjoying this one. Puzzle games and Metroidvania games are really your bread and butter. Hope to see more videos out of this.
NL, You got the quotes, the trivia, you're charismatic and entertaining. You just aren't able to get this game. It's cool man. No one has every intellect

NL is actually doing a great service for this game. He's making it painful enough to watch that people feel like they have to buy it to do what he can't
I bought it for this reason
Just like Slay the Spire. My dude really is a master at his craft.
It's Planet Coaster all over again
This is so true
After I watched the first video I was so frustrated he didn’t solve the last puzzle I immediately bought the game just to finish it. Haven’t put it down since.
Oh no... he still thinks he can use the actual objects instead of their token words in rulemaking, when it clearly didn't work several times in a row.
Nice thumbnail, I see you are a person of culture too.
Alzheimers
I'm hoping he learns this by episode 8 but I'm not holding my breath lol
You would think the Egg would have a good understanding of how variables work.
Spoiler alert:
This will work in later levels
"The wall is open, brother" actually killed me
But the wall is clearly shut and you need to star to open it. Oh God I can see it it's right in front of my face
"Key is defeat" *proceeds to make everything keys*
Which is the correct solution
@@Amenumenemana8 it may be a solution, i don't know, i solved it by doing wall is shut, star is open, star is push, then you can open the wall like its a door.
The open and shut mechanics are a little hard to get your head round, shut means is a door, open means is a key
@@hoorahforsnakes Well I thought this was the mechanic. But with there being a stop. Shut only really makes sense to be a way for something to be opened.
It's the key challenge
Amenumenemana
would you care to explain your solution?
NL: "What if we make ROCK no longer PUSH?"
Me: "Yes"
NL: "Literally changes essentially nothing."
Me: *"WRONG"*
NL you are galaxy braining too much. some of these solutions are screaming at you and it makes my head hurt i love you
Says the guy that has already watched the solution on other TH-cam channels
addmore Hops Nahhhh i dont like puzzle games just watching egg play them
ariannasv22 Exactly
That's an insult to Marvin.
I love how you can see that the first level gives him a slightly flawed routine, which continues to fuck him over throughout the whole video before he figures out the solutions to the other levels.
Can't open something if it isn't shut, my dude.
what about open heart surgery. look it up sweetheart
truly sage life advice
@@yop1010 You know what they do after it's opened? They sew it shut.
Deep.
This applies to any context really
Good life advice
Sometimes to get through an obstacle, you need to make an obstacle.
~aka Wall is shut
Fancy seeing you here ;P
Tackproductions I have been exposed!
sammy3212321 Genius
omg this is hilarious, every time he thinks he has it he gets so excited, then it doesn't work and he's so dissapointed. It is like child trying to fit square block through circle hole, and is always convinced it will work.
WALL IS SHUT! STAR IS OPEN! AAAAAAAAAAAA!!
I have to go buy this game myself now so I can stop yelling at other people playing it
You absolutely should, easily worth the cost. Although watching him after you've already solved the puzzle is 10x worse than being just as stumped as him.
It's so frustrating
He really doesn't get that "is open" means it's a key, and "is shut" means it's a lock.
@@DestroyedArkana Yeah, that's also why he tried door is open earlier to get through the door.
@@DestroyedArkana To be fair, the game doesn't explain that part very well either. It really should be "is lock" not "is shut".

It's like a pot play, but it's every level...
and once again you have my neighbours thinking that I shout some random bullshit while I'm sleeping or something, because there is no other logical explanation why I keep saying "baba is you, rock is you!"
He solves it almost immediately, in case you were wondering.
thank you so much i was on the verge of a mental breakdown
And almost immediatly he forgets everything the game taught him in level 4
Wall is shut
It bugs me that throughout that 1st level though he doesnt learn that and could have been used there and he would have learned how to control 2 characters and not have to change them both
NL's existential dread in the final puzzle is why I'm already in love with this series.
Idk if NL will see this but, if you hit esc you can see how rules are being interpreted by the game.
Helpful is you
@@claytonsturm236 baba is you and helpful *
God damn it, NL. I'm kinda broke, but there is no way I can't buy this now. It's too painful.
Same boat, he's broken me... even though I'm also broke.
The NL effect is in full force with this one.
Yep, he made me buy slay the spire to see if he was just stupid or it was IMPOSSIBLE (he's just stupid) and now he will make me buy this too, looks fun though, and I had/ am having a blast with slay the spire

The artwork for the thumbnail is glorious.
The second a puzzle requires X is Baba Is you or any variation of that Eggs brain just melts.
Dont give up NL, pls for the love of god, this is too good. We will watch you struggle on the same puzzle for many episodes I promise. :D
22:40 tries solution, doesnt work
23:15 tries exact same solution NL:"WHAT ARE YOU DOING DUDE"
and then he could say "I was on the right track" ROFL
Can't wait for the next episode of man doesn't understand code
KEY IS DEFEAT, turns everything into keys, classic Ryab logic...
You can't OPEN something that isn't SHUT, silly! luv u egg 🥚
but wall is shut is really not that simple
@@erikole211 A child could solve it. It really is that simple.
I feel like if they replaced SHUT with LOCK it'd be more intuitive.
I don't think it's that complicated given that the game has already done its best to teach you that OPEN destroys SHUT, but @@PedanticPig makes a very good point honestly
Open is a verb not an adjective in this game
Objects are not words
X is Y is Z does not mean X is Z, you need X is Y and Z to do that
There, I just solved 90% of your problems
If x is z would only be true in that case if all 3 were objects
23:55
NL: "Yo, don't do this to me Baba is you" *starts pushing Is to Wall*
me: "oh, he's finally got it"
NL: *Pushes open to wall* "The wall's open brother"
me: *internally screaming*

p.s, loving the episodes, good fun
Jeez, wall is shut, star is open. He likes to overcomplicate, doesn't he? Still, this series, I freaking love it. Love ya, NL.
13: wall is shut, star is open, push the star into a wall, boom
10: if the key touches the door, both are destroyed, yeah? but you can move only the wall and not the key, yeah??? roles are reserved. the key is a door in disguise. you must control the door to move into the key.
The level of patience required to watch this... Jesus
From the title, it's obvious that the puzzle from the last episode that probably everyone figured out the solution to, Ryan finally figures out 4Head

Pettition to name this temporary series as "Baba is Egg"

How NLs mind functions i will never know. All the solutions are sitting infront of him and he just keeps trying the same thing lol I love this man but holy shit.
I genuinely feel the music is the best part of this game, awesome puzzler but the music is amazing.
Dude if he takes this long and people bully him, I'd be an entire fucking circus dude these take me years
Star is Open, Wall is shut, push star into wall and make a way out to get the IS WIN condition from the outside?
Never played the game just playing along with the video and guessing that's how it's supposed to be solved
Yeop
Its fun watching NL overcomplicates things gives me some insight on his thought process
What delights me about this is he got it right...but not by doing what everybody was screaming.
NL’s play is hitting parts of my brain I didn’t even know I had.
You are still solving more than 1 puzzle per episode. You are doing good enough.
18:46 You go key is you, move the key out of the way, flag is win, then door is you and you win
22:00 I think it's star is open wall is shut so you can basically open the wall
18:00 key is door, than door is you 19:30 flag is baba 24:00 key is open, wall is shut
Why do I watch these when they just make we shout at Ryan so much. Ah well see you in episode 3.
23:48 NL:"Well door is not 'shut' right now, it's 'stop' so the door is a wall"
24:03 Also NL: "The wall is 'open', brother"
Love you NL, never change....but maybe just a bit
in submerged ruins, you needed to make it so baba is you & rock is you, then move baba into the flag room BEFORE moving the crab&flag over, then use the rock, which is now you, to move over Crab & flag.

Solution I thought up to the last one: make wall shut and make star open, unlock one part of the wall with the star, move the key statement in the top right so that key is no longer defeat, make key is win true, win with the key
Egg you cant add an is after a verb
Will he ever figure out he has to use the word representations and not the physical objects?
Baba is crab and egg is learn.
This is such an insanely cool game!
I want to propose a solution before we see part 3, because I think he was on the right track for level 13
1. Wall is Key is Stop- all wall is key now
2. push Wall into the key so it is not in the command (may or may not be necessary?)
3. Star is Push is Open
4. Key is Shut
5. push the star into any key, unlocking a wall to leave from
now you just make Key not Defeat, move whatever you want into the Win command, and you are The Best Egg Daddy.
you can just shorten all that by doing wall is shut and star is open. open a wall and make star or wall win
Yes! I bought this last night and it's wonderful. For the first level in this ep I went with "Crab and baba is you" to get to the end
Rock is You, move rock back, Baba is you, move baba around?
loving this game NL keep it up my friend :)
Thanks for the video. Really enjoying this one. Puzzle games and Metroidvania games are really your bread and butter. Hope to see more videos out of this.
Egg has "shut = bad" on the brain.
The wall is shut, my friend. The star is open. Key is win.
BABA IS EGG
for the extra level, i was screaming "rock is baba, move the extra baba to flag then change flag is win"
I'm binge watching this after episode 7 released and I'm already screaming by the end of this video. I don't think I'm going to make it.
you have to admit, the way he pushes onjects to use as words is a bit endearing.
Watching you play makes me want to get this game... so I can solve all the puzzles myself and stop yelling at you.
NL, You got the quotes, the trivia, you're charismatic and entertaining. You just aren't able to get this game. It's cool man. No one has every intellect
Understanding NLs thinking is more challenging than the actual puzzles
I’m starting to think NL’s videos are just those ads of someone playing a game poorly... but longer. No offence NL, still love you! YOU is AWESOME!
There is nothing like watching someone come to terms with how bad they are at simple puzzles.
There are no jellyfish
Nl as a god: we turn jellyfish into....where are the jelly fish? There are no jelly fish.
more baba is you! i support watching you be confused, I like it! (edit - on second look, you did! thanks past NL!)

This is best frustrating series youve ever made NL. Finish this amazing shitshow of a journey.

Wall is shut. star is open.
How can this man trial and error every possible wrong combination only stop when he's finally left with one working step to a problem?
Answer is Ryab
I solved almost every puzzle differently. This game is so well made.
That solution to the crab one was so quick, but the way he did it still meant he doesn't learn how flexible your identity is and how good AND is 😭
Whatever is OPEN is a "key" - even if it isn't a KEY. Whatever is SHUT is a "door" - even if it isn't a "DOOR"
Big brain: (Lake Level 3 - Keke is Love)
Small Brain: (Lake Level 5 - Flag is Baba is You)
He seems too attached to baba, when he could literally just become anything else and it works just fine
"Let's think about this". Proceeds to fuck up BABA IS YOU for the hundreth time, don't lie to us NL, you don't dabble into thinking.
Wall is shut, star is open. It's really not that hard egg.
