The scope of this game is incredible. Not only the sheer insane amount of unique pages but all the music!? The dedication to being Period accurate?I wonder how long development took. So much love and care and attention to detail in an age of store bought asset games.
Man, and it goes SO much further. The game Slayers X: Terminal Aftermath Vengance of the Slayer is a boomer shooter that came out last year that was made by...ZANE.
Some points of note: - if you can flag someone, do it. Always. - shaking the mouse makes pages load faster. - exploring pays (literally). You may sometimes find a free way to get something you'd otherwise have to pay for. - lastly, some pages can only be found thru searching sometimes. They might not be linked to any home page which makes them otherwise inaccessible. Hope this helps!
Oh man, misspelling "tranquility" when you searched it really screwed you over and made this so much harder than it needed to be lol, it would have led you right to the page telling you where to go. Enjoying this series so much!
Funny you mention the satanic panic about Pokémon… when I was a kid and visiting my cousins down in Florida, they all vehemently refused to play because it promoted evolution… which I guess was a no-no in their particular church. I was so confused.
My parents didn't really think pokemon was satanic, but they still didn't let me play it "just in case" 😂 I'm fine with it, I've tried the games as an adult and they're not really my thing anyway
Sometimes a slow, not-edited video is all one needs!! :) I for one enjoy having your long playthroughs keep me company with whatever I am doing! Thank you John!
I remember when I was a kid in school, we were all going to watch the Pokemon Movie as a class, just for a fun day. But some of the students' parents wrote in and complained and ruined it for all of us and we weren't allowed to watch it anymore!! Oh that made me mad. Loving this playthrough btw!!!
“The doordasher you keep getting somehow” took me tf OUT. As did “I’ve been arguing over the internet since I was 11” - that whole but about pokemon and the satanic panic took me right back to the 90s/.early aughts jfc, that was a wild time. Also wow, I love how expansive this game is??I’m super impressed, and it’s been wonderful watching you play it, so engaging!
ahhh noo i love it john!! ive always wanted to see this game but no one i watch has put out videos of it so i super appreciate you playing and i hope you'll continue!! excited to finally get to experience this one with a youtuber i love to watch!!
I just LOVE that you are playing this game, because I never got around to finish it when I played it, but it got stuck in my mind for ages.... Having to watch every vid at least twice while I wait anxiously for the next part
Love the pace of this game and this playthrough! It's really scratching that investigative/puzzle search gameplay itch. The game almost reminds me of a more interactive "Her Story" in a way. Thanks for the video, John!
So sad... yet another soul lost to the sinister deception of SquisherZ... anyway, which is your favorite? Mine's Yuckey :) Loving this series so far! I think this game is perfect for longer unedited/minimally edited videos, it feels like we're all scrolling right alongside you.
37:45 Well, technically, dinosaurs aren't dead)) And many people even have them at home. The fastest "dinosaur" (quotes because, yes, they did evolve) atm is peregrine falcon.
Never cut this. I know the views are 1/10th of your usual but after watching piratesoftware play this, I know cutting won't make it better. I look forward to you podcast's book club on this one btw
I was thinking the same thing, this would be hard game to put up a playthrough for but I love it. These are the types of games I would never play but love watching other people play. I don't have the patience for them. It's fun to watch you try and figure it out. Also, this game's setup and world building is incredible. So much time and effort. It looks amazing.
No sweat on not making as much progress as you might've liked, the game is still really fun to explore/listen to/see change (Zane's little angry callout at you specifically made me lol) and it's fun to see you doing your detective work and figuring stuff out! Even pages that don't go anywhere are interesting to check out and it's fun to see your reactions, like deciding to just keep reporting all the harassment/copyright stuff to milk some extra money, getting super into the hunt for SquisherZ, and telling the story about poor baby John writing an email in defense of Pokemon. This is a very cozy series honestly, it's very interesting and strange but something that definitely feels like you can settle in and just hang out.
Zane may be an asshole, but the music on his page is dope lol Always neat to find a song with less than 300 Shazams, it's cool they took the music so seriously, loving seeing you play the game so far
Loving this play through John! Hope you and yours are doing well. Editing to add that the song at 3:54 is a bop. Takes me back to the days when I had a cassette with songs that sang you through the day and included your name in the songs. Wish I could find it now.
I had trouble with the illegal content case too, lol. There's a lot of pages with more pages on them. And some pages you need to click something to enter them proper. You'll even run into password protected ones later.
I can't believe this guys loves hunting squissherZ more 😂, keep it up john! This playthrough is actuzlly slow paced but it's okay for me. It makes me feel like im watching beside you as a backseat gamer 😁
It's okay. As "slow" as the game is, I keep pausing the video to read stuff, so it can't be too slow. EDIT: I also enjoyed playing spot-the-Squisherz alongside you XD

I had my own Geocities page in the late 90s. This hits me right in the nostalgia-bone. 😂
Man, and it goes SO much further. The game Slayers X: Terminal Aftermath Vengance of the Slayer is a boomer shooter that came out last year that was made by...ZANE.
...age of store bought asset games? where? just because one game used assets and sold well doesnt mean its an age of asset games idk man
I was so stoked that John got around to playing this, and found Seepage and The Chowder Man pretty early on

People who slander Zane will soon find out that he made out with their mothers.
lmaoooo

Enjoying this series so much!

I kind of miss when the internet was like that and everyone had their own weird little website
Check out Neocities - that kind of internet still exists!
I love the slowness of this series to be honest - much easier to wind down when watching. Really enjoying this so far!
The Chowder Man raps go so hard
Just got to the Squisher song and that goes even harder lmao
2:51 I remember using the mouse to track download progress 😂
The strong urge to gather up little critters hidden on pages...
Ive literally been singing "SQUISHERS...ARE REALLY COOL!" for the last hour lol
"I don't know why I clicked on Jesus." The best quote 😅😅😅
The ultimate Squisher.
I like the slower pace of this! The clicking, music and chat are relaxing.
The butter ice cream song is in my head forever
That song slapped. Idk about eating the actual product though. 😂
I actually LOVE this playthrough
YES NEW HYPNO SPACE EP!!
The amount of respect I have for SquisherZ is immeasurable
John staring at the camera during the granny cream song had me dying 😆
The Squisherz theme will be engraved into my brain forever..... thanks John
the granny creams hot butter ice cream jingle has lived in my head since i played this lmao
also the music in this game has no business going this hard 💀
This game is really cool, John, we definitely want more
Love the playthrough John! This game reminds me when chain emails used to go around back in the early 2000s when people still used AOL
12:57 I want to always be able to come back to this banger 😂
New ringtone
Id replace MGS codec for this
Sometimes a slow, not-edited video is all one needs!! :) I for one enjoy having your long playthroughs keep me company with whatever I am doing! Thank you John!
I remember when I was a kid in school, we were all going to watch the Pokemon Movie as a class, just for a fun day. But some of the students' parents wrote in and complained and ruined it for all of us and we weren't allowed to watch it anymore!! Oh that made me mad. Loving this playthrough btw!!!
Wow I'd be pissed 😭
This game is so fun !! It really feels like the people working on this had a lot of fun, so many references and neat details!
yay more hypnospace!! was excited for more. also john, maybe jan wolf is your stage name for music 😳
the snowflake mouse trail really reminds me of my old blog, but it wasn't as big as that though it was just like rainbow sparkles i think
i didn't know that the 'pokemon being demonic' thing was international, in my country we had that too 😭
“The doordasher you keep getting somehow” took me tf OUT. As did “I’ve been arguing over the internet since I was 11” - that whole but about pokemon and the satanic panic took me right back to the 90s/.early aughts jfc, that was a wild time.

We love a Humongous Entertainment reference in 2024. I miss putt putt
Freddi Fish and Luther forever have my heart ❤
I love how excited John was to find the squisherz 😂😂 my cheeks are hurting from smiling and laughing so much
ahhh noo i love it john!! ive always wanted to see this game but no one i watch has put out videos of it so i super appreciate you playing and i hope you'll continue!! excited to finally get to experience this one with a youtuber i love to watch!!
The John Wolfe Lore in these videos is peak. I love hearing about the things he did in his childhood 😊
I just LOVE that you are playing this game, because I never got around to finish it when I played it, but it got stuck in my mind for ages.... Having to watch every vid at least twice while I wait anxiously for the next part
I tend to watch/listen to TH-cam during work and this playthrough has been perfect for that. Thanks, John!
I WILL NOT REST UNTIL JOHN HAS HIS SQUISHERZ
these unedited videos are the p e r f e c t companions for work, Jon! never apologize!!
I love all John’s uploads but this game in particular has been so fun to watch so far!! Can’t wait for the next episode of the playthrough
Was feeling like shit today. Your video at least made this day a little bit better, thanks John.
John’s love of collecting is endearing. He needs those squishers like he needed to hug every gnome in Little nightmares
Love the pace of this game and this playthrough! It's really scratching that investigative/puzzle search gameplay itch. The game almost reminds me of a more interactive "Her Story" in a way. Thanks for the video, John!
Omg that 'peacelands' logo brought back a traumatic memory...
I didnt think I would enjoy this so much
Just realized that chowder man is portrayed by Hot Dad, a TH-camr that does music, that's awesome
I that I was crazy, but found their names in the credits!
Omg John writing a strongly worded email to a random bloke at 12? 😂😂
what a callback to what is basically an OG internet meme at 5:59
Have to find all the dangerous stuff on this pag...OOOOH SQUISHERZ!!!
John Wolfe's cousin, Jan Wolf
We like the game uncut just fine. Even if you have to take a min to advance we dont mind its part of the experience. Dont worry about it.
I've been really, really enjoying this playthrough and can't wait to see more--it's an oddly comfy game
SQUISHERS,
ARE REALLY COOL!
i dont know if anyone else pointed it out but the faces in the crystals on steve guys page are neil cicierega which really got to me
SquisherZ are so much fun
So sad... yet another soul lost to the sinister deception of SquisherZ... anyway, which is your favorite? Mine's Yuckey :)
Loving this series so far! I think this game is perfect for longer unedited/minimally edited videos, it feels like we're all scrolling right alongside you.
John: sorry if this content is a lot for uncut
Me: what is happening on that page? Ooh cool music on this one.
Oh YOU FOUND ONE!
Haha this is amazing!
This game takes me back. I'd forgotten about the whole Pokemon thing, dang.
Noo now the squishers song is stuck in my head 😂
Really enjoying these non-horror games you're playing and the change in the formula. Keep up the awesome John!
JOHN PLEASE ADOPT APRIL THE ANGELIC HAMSTER
37:45
Well, technically, dinosaurs aren't dead)) And many people even have them at home.
The fastest "dinosaur" (quotes because, yes, they did evolve) atm is peregrine falcon.
🤓
Interested where story is going, also love John in a role of annoying hall monitor!
I played through this game a couple years ago, and I love all the Chowder man tracks. I still listen to them!
This game has been really fun! I wasn't expecting this!
More Hypno Space? Yes, please!
I am loving this series 💜
My mom used to tell me that Ben 10 transformed not into aliens, but demons
Never cut this. I know the views are 1/10th of your usual but after watching piratesoftware play this, I know cutting won't make it better. I look forward to you podcast's book club on this one btw
It's getting better views than other series he's running right now like Brothers and Detroit
@@FluffyThieves An interesting insight.
SquisherZ are really cool!
Love these longer videos! Thanks John!
I was thinking the same thing, this would be hard game to put up a playthrough for but I love it. These are the types of games I would never play but love watching other people play.

Can’t wait for the next one!
This is so bizarre and nostalgic, love it
Loving this play through John! Hope you and yours are doing well.
Editing to add that the song at 3:54 is a bop. Takes me back to the days when I had a cassette with songs that sang you through the day and included your name in the songs. Wish I could find it now.
I've been looking forward to this episode!
Wholesome welcome to the game 😂 that's why I love it so much
I too would get caught up on the squisherz search 😔✌🏾
don't worry about presentation, it's still interesting to listen along! basically jamming my own games and listening in
I'm enjoying this so much more than I expected!!! It's so fun.
I am loving this game. I'm glad you're playing it. It's not at all what I expected, which is a good thing 😁
I had trouble with the illegal content case too, lol.
There's a lot of pages with more pages on them. And some pages you need to click something to enter them proper. You'll even run into password protected ones later.
I love squishers.
Nooo two days until the next part! But I want to continue watching now! (Some might say I am really getting into this playthrough...)
I can't believe this guys loves hunting squissherZ more 😂, keep it up john! This playthrough is actuzlly slow paced but it's okay for me. It makes me feel like im watching beside you as a backseat gamer 😁
29:33 im enjoying the playthrough john so dont worry. i like the slowness and just taking the time to play it.
This game is trippy af.😆🍄👁️👁️grandmas cream is my favorite page so far.
I'm loving this for the nostalgia factor, it's honestly chill and fun to watch!
hell yea
Squicher sang by john make me laugh great Gameplay
I was hoping you would release the second part today! Yea!
hahaha, I knew you'd love SquisherZ. They're really cool!!!!!!!!!!1
Hooked on this playthrough!
If you like this then you would love Papers, Please! That would be a really entertaining one for you to play on the channel
ive really been enjoying this game so far :D also squisherz for lyfe
Love your playthrough of this game❤
It's okay. As "slow" as the game is, I keep pausing the video to read stuff, so it can't be too slow.
EDIT: I also enjoyed playing spot-the-Squisherz alongside you XD
The Dylan guy doesn’t seem to know what he’s doing lol
Thanks for playing this so i don't have to john 😂 this game is kinda entertaining to watch but it's not something i would ever personally play.
watching this while studying and almost cry laughing at "moon, the planet" for no reason LOL loving this game and johns vibes
