    9:50 NL's brain is pogging off. The old NL would have tried to use that first mirror for a while before accidentally finding the right solution. New NL took like 3 seconds to realize that he had to use the far mirror first. My man's brain is truly expanding to levels never seen before
    Edit: that "Master of inefficiency" achievement was a 10/10 bit

    Hey NL, just a comment -- on Android, when you've watched a video, a red bar appears on the bottom of the thumbnail according to how much you've watched. If you've finished watching the video the red bar extends across the whole bottom of the thumbnail. When your thumbnails have red borders like this one, I might be more inclined to think I've watched it already and skip it.

    I think this puzzle game having multiple right answers is really cool and lets NL complete puzzles instead of chasing threads that go nowhere
    it is interesting to see how people's puzzle solving differs, and having multiple ways to complete levels keeps it more accessible than a stricter puzzle game

    On the thing about indie games nowadays missing something the old ones had. Yes, I've definitely noticed that too. I call that difference 'elegance'. They were undoubtedly simpler, but they were so much more focused on their core idea. Simplicity is not always bad.
    Some of the old indie games will probably stay with me forever. Gish and Braid really come to mind.
    In a more game designer-esque perspective, you could say that in such games the one core system needs to be perfect, where in bigger games there are multiple systems. (which are often not as good)
