    Hey so! We've gotten quite a few comments about the game's humor recently. I want to re-stress a point I made in the video: I'm no authority on comedy and would never pretend to be. For all of my comments about not finding the game funny, I'm ultimately just one person, and if you got more out of the game's humor than me, that's 100% more power to you and I'm not here to tell you you're wrong or anything. I hope you enjoy the video regardless.

    So, story time: My brother played this game when he was a kid and over the years he developed a passionate hatred for this game. So, being the caring younger brother that I am, I like to torture him with this game at every chance I get.
    So one day, I show him pizza tower, he's into it, he likes it. Then I go "Now you gotta see this level"
    "Fun farm, with special guest Mort the chicken"
    The smile banishes from his face as he stares at the screen in disbelief for like a full minute.
    God I love this videogame.

    I really enjoyed your breakdown of the game’s plot. I never really considered that Mort is a mundane chicken in a world of humanlike chickens. It’s rather like how many depictions of Shockwave of _The Transformers_ show him as a stereotypical robot in a world of robots with highly varied personalities.

    It kinda makes sense that the creators of Pizza Tower would make their singular special guest Mort the Chicken.

    I actually really like the whole debug room aesthetic the game has going on, it kind of reminds me of when I played Roblox as a kid and most of the games looked like this, just eclectic arrangements of level assets to meet the bare minimum of a functional game, with little thought given to how it looks beyond it not being actively unpleasant to see. It's like the whole game is a peek behind the curtain, with the intentions of the developers laid bare.

    I think you're a bit too hard on Mort lol. It is an easy game for sure but it's also what we would call a "3rd party" game at the time since AAA (Triple A) wasn't in the lexicon at the time.
    These games were generally short and had to find ways to differentiate themselves compared to other games. That's why you see things like the extra large health bar and using most of the file space for cutscenes. On top of that, it was late in the PSX life, so it was made on a very small budget compared to a PS2 game being made around the same time.
    As for the Triangle button, this game wasn't made with the dualshock controller as the default. The default settings assumed you're playing with the original controller. So the triangle button is to move your camera if you didn't have anolog enabled

    • @xX_Pokeman_Xx
      @xX_Pokeman_Xx ปีที่แล้ว

      My brother seemed to have stumbled upon the nomenclature of "triple A", as well as "double A", "single A", and "B" back during the late SNES era. I suspect he picked it up from movies first, which is where triple A came from originally. This game would probably fall under B-sized since it doesn't have an A-list team, A-list director, nor an A-list studio behind it.

    Man the memories flood back with this game, mind you I only played the Demo until I emulated it though PC a good ten years back though I didn't get far. I remember playing Mort the Chicken back on the Official US Playstation Magazine Disc #41 which came out in Feb 2001. I was 8 years old that year and my Dad gave me his PS1 for my birthday, he gave me a few game and the ones that stood out were Driver 2, 007: The World is not enough and My Favorite Spyro: Year of the Dragon, but that Demo Disc I had was worn out by the time I was done with it. This game enters my mind every once in a while and I Def have to stream it sometime in the future. Thats for this Blast from the past IDC how obscure this game is it really left and impression on me as a kid and is the reason I also have a taste for games that are Less than Triple A titles!

      I mean I have 2k subs and my Mort video has 36k+ so I'd imagine his is doing just fine

    To be totally honest, I think the game's horrible and offputting, but at the same time, it's horrible and offputting in the same way that the room is, where it's so dogshit bad that it loops around to getting shameful giggles out of me.

    This game doesn’t even exceed how bizarre Ed Annuziata’s previous projects were. Mr Bones and Three Dirty Dwarves.

    Okay so I decided to try it after all, and it's pretty okay with some tweaks. So follow these tips if you really, really wanna try it for some reason:
    1) It seems the game has an Easy Mode enabled by default. Disable it.
    2) There is a tally in the options menu, and while getting all the coins isn't strictly necessary to beat the level, the game becomes much more fun if you do. It seems the game was made trying to use Mario-like philosophy where the actually more fun challenges are for optional stuff. So go for 100%.
    3) The reason controls are so weird is because it seems they were first designed for Dpad, and analog controls were implemented on top of that. I genuinely found the game plays much better with Dpad, rotating with triggers - sort of hybrid tank controls. It might take some getting used to, but controls make way more sense that way.
    4) Game becomes a lot more fun if you run a self imposed challenge that you e.g. can only get hit three times (or even only once), or you reset the level. Considering how easy the game is, this is very much achievable and makes it way less mindless.

    If I saw the game being sold somewhere. I’d buy it in a very good condition for 5 bucks. If in like new condition, then 10 bucks.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Tour de Pizza's next game was a Mort the Chicken sequel just "because".

    At around 9:30 in this video, the doctor of phycology: Carl Cockerel essentially calls us "featherless bipeds", which is a reference to Ancient Greece, in which Plato describes us in the same fashion.

    Honestly mort would have benefitted alot by the game being spent more time in the oven if that happened the game could have possibly been a hit..

    Mort the chicken has a similar gameplay style to pizza tower in a few ways, you collect living things, there are enhancements you can get, and it's very strange

    I like how their production is all the way over, Ecco and Mr. Bones are cult classics, Mort was obscure and forgotten but not inherently terrible, and Kolibri... I'm pretty sure some streamer I follow has it on a roulette as the ultimate punishment.

    I can see myself playing mort the chicken and having fun. I can't see myself having fun playing bubsy, I wouldn't pay for it in the 2000s, but I would play this on steam on a sale and have a bit of a good time.
