NL blocking off the land routes so the boss doesn't spawn, then blocking off all routes so that the game ends before hitting day 10, will certainly go down as one of the moves of all time. Hope he continues to play it for another stream maybe.
Of course we switch characters for the ads! (I actually don't mind it though cause it's easier for me to tell the difference between his paid and genuine takes)
@@IshsaYou can know for sure when it's an actually good game vs just an ad, especially if he does more unsponsored streams for it (knockout city was absolute peak)
Nah man, straight up a negative 20. My man cannot understand what pieces exist 2 nanoseconds after just placing said piece and its baffling. Can remember every actor under the sun but the line is drawn at shapes
His lack of imagination for shapes and how to use them to close loops is fascinating. Like that one t piece is obviously great because you just need two sharp turns to close the loop but he never notices it. But on the other hand I lose to a chess AI that's only thinking two turns ahead
im getting into game dev stuff and thats legit one of the best ways to get your game out there. like balatro was expected to be a small release but because NL and a few other creators it blew up massively. i try not to play the same game as NL or else my Type A chat energy starts showing im a Type A hiding as a Type B, like watching him throw a run away in Wildfrost from the one move out of 40 that kills you hurts my soul so i gotta keep that Type A chat energy locked down.
@@Iron_Maniac Rogue Tower is great but the graphics are a huge eye sore it screams "this is is a students first engine project" its got pretty amazing gameplay outside of that though. i hope we hop on the the correct timeline and go towards roguelike and roguelite tower defense games. that shit would get me bricked up. give me more games like Hades, Rogue Tower, Slay the Spire, Wildfrost, Balatro, and less of Cyberpunk release, Suckfield(aka Starfield), Fallout 76 release, Dragons Dogma 2 release, Cities Skyline 2 release state. all the games are completely different genres the genre isn't important its the content within and Roguelikes offer great engaging content where as DD2 for example was a 20FPS slide show for most of the game even on state of the art hardware or in Starfields case it was procedurally generated empty fish bowls with a super hallow story and item customization/crafting.

Every game deserves roguelike features because they inject a sense of unpredictability and excitement into gameplay, keeping players engaged and offering fresh experiences with each playthrough. Its the easiest way to make people play games longer and as long as you're progression is good you are off to the races.
No offense to the developers but its harder for me to think about a tower defense without rougelike elements, even 10 years ago on that mobile tower defense everyone played with heroes you would unlock new tier to your defenses and unlock new heroes, even the building path thing is very common nowadays iirc it was even in the last tower defense NL played where you built your own road and every tile was a square instead of the hexegons.
If you wanted to survive longer rather than stop alll spawns, wouldnt the best strategy be to never close off paths and just make them all really long. Kinda made me type A when he would close off a really long defensible path although im not 100% sure if thats a bad move or not
New video. Still bald. Good to have something that stays the same
HE'S BALD?!
Many people are saying this

Is this a new chocolate rain remix?
It's not like he's gonna grow hair... ever
Picks the worst possible spot to lay a tile then says, "smartest man who ever existed", killing me. 🤣
I came to the comments exactly as he did this. He was messing up the tiles so much I had an aneurysm

Everything reminds me of her... (Rogue Tower)
But she's with him... (Dorfromantik)
I love both, guess I'm in a thruple now
This was a roller coaster. His brain expanded and he’d learn only to revert just at the payoff
gets tile that ends a lineage: "this is not an ender"
gets tile that does not end lineage and in fact prevents him from ever reaching his goals: "this is definitely a good tile for ending lineages

holy shit lmao i thought you were trolling up until that last match
It's funny how you can tell everytime a run starts going downhill rapidly when NL says the phrase "Now let's start putting down the fishing villages"
This one was really fun to watch! Would love to see more Hexguardians.
We're NL guys, of course we're ready for an unusually high energy sponsored segment.
Of course we switch characters for the ads!

i like the sponsor streams because it forces NL to be nice to us

Of course they put roguelite in your tower defense. It came free with your tower defense genre.

NL rolled a zero on spatial hex tile visualization
Nah man, straight up a negative 20. My man cannot understand what pieces exist 2 nanoseconds after just placing said piece and its baffling. Can remember every actor under the sun but the line is drawn at shapes
He went from not seeing the boss by dying too much to not seeing the boss by literally making it impossible for the game to spawn any more enemies.
I would love to see this thrown into rotation, good game for some Type A and Type B fusion

More devs should be sponsoring NL to play their games. Theres something about how badly he plays that makes me NEED to buy the game to play it better

His ending the lineage and his best routes is crazy while the boats are right there
Hes so good at making us want to buy the games.
Man has had me buying games since enemy unknown. It's always dangerous when he plays a new game.
Combining Rogue tower and Dorfromantik to incredible effect. Console port someday please.🙏🙏🙏
Was wondering if anybody was going to mention Dorfromantik, such a good game!
I'm hoping the numbers are good on this video. I'd love to see some more!
A little car casown. A casown for little cars.
Landlord's Super mentioned! LETSGOOOOOOOOOOO
A shape-heavy tower defense game. Perfect for nl
would love to see more of this game NL
I love the chill humor of the northern lion community truly a safe place on the Internet
we’re balatro guys of course we-
wait where am I?
two genres I always wanted to see married. Can't believe it took this long, I must have missed something like this in the past
Rogue Tower which NL also played a bunch of is basically the same as this

As a shape rotator I was getting tilted through most of the video, but boy the ending relief was so satisfying.

First level and hes already confused 😂
but really the upgrade being more expensive exponentially is just not fun
We are Northerlion guys of course we wake up our wives when we find a new roguelite game
bought the game a few days ago, am addicted
the soundtrack at the start for the game at the start sounds like filthy frank's Fried Noodle chorus
I didnt even know you could shut down all the portals, amazing
Nice video, good video. Thanks for the upload
I would watch a few more episodes
What happened to the crab game? Is he done playing it?
I wonder how much longer he will keep the lebron bit, im betting either 2 weeks or its here to stay forever
bought the game, wow can't believe teh ad worked
*Sigh* another game I need to buy myself to figure out if NL is just ass at it or if the game really is that hard
Starting the vid off with the lebron james scream meme, this gonna be a good one boys
The board game with demons was neat °_°
The intro energy is always killing me💀
The Carcassonne reference
4:03 real ones played tower defense on wc3
i fuckin love this guy
Hooollly that was fun
Oh yea. Rogue Tower exists, i wonder how that game turned out
It still exists 😅
we're tiles guys, of course we end lineages.
Hope he keeps playing this
It's a little sad how few nerds in 2024 know what "to go even further beyond" means 😔
I caved and just bought the game with your link because it looks so damn fun lol
Yo honestly this game looks sick
Closing off all routes actually damned your society to isolation and slow regression into poverty and savagery.
Would love more lf this.
One has to picture mama Liz as happy, for it’s not about my balls being dipped in the chili oil, but the “honey wake up”’s we make along the way.

Please play more of this nl is the shape savant
You ever notice how every genre seems to have a roguelike these days?
Roguelite is a good flavor of game; every genre deserves a roguelite take on it.
Are there cozy farming sim roguelikes yet? I don't think cult of the lamb quite fits that category
@@Nikowo1610maybe rune factory? Its not too much roguelike though

"we'll put this tile here in case enemies end up spawning here" my brother in roguelite tower defense tetromino you decide where the enemies spawn

I see he’s still in his bald arc.
yogscast games? :o
More plz :)
Its a rogue-tower-like
IMO Best tower defense all time is kingdom rush I would love to see a kingdom rush stream. Great gameplay and excellent visuals
I think it has to be in the contract for nl to be just a little bit ass. Im buying this when i get home 😂
Will the sacred grounds video ever come out....💔💔
Hmm, saw a guy a couple years ago trying to develop a game just like this. I wonder if he gave up.
Appreciated.

Oh my god its literally just rogue tower but again
kinda moist with it
