I like how, unlike most mobile games, Cut the Rope just stopped being popular because the game was getting old, just like any regular life cycle.
The thing i appreciate about them is that they didn't only do cut the rope games but made other very cool ips. Unlike Rovio and now nobody basically gives a shit ahout them anymore lmao
It's a shame to see that people missunderstand the downfall of the franchise and thinking it was another angry birds case where they tried milking the franchise as much as possible. What makes this even stupider is that zeptolabs now has an even more popular franchise (It was something about machines or cats? Idk cant remember) and people still treat the company like they're milking a franchise they've almost abandoned
@@SpicyInk the other game is C.A.T.S/Crash Arena Turbo Stars
@@themustardman219they also made King of Thieves
But I still love Cut the Rope
Om nom's mouth opening sound is the most iconic part of this series
mlwah
*insert satisfying crunching sound*
**wwaaahh**
just like Tuffy in Tom and Jerry when he was hungry
I feel like for Zeptolab, Cut the Rope is just funding for the other projects they actually care about. After Om Nom Run they’ve released 5 other games that have nothing to do with Cut the Rope, all of which have glowing reviews. After they released Om Nom Run they released Bullet Echo, a game rated 17+, making it clear they’re not just trying to market to 6 Year Olds. I personally believe they’ve moved on from Om Nom and are working on what they want to, and to be honest, in a world where every mobile game company is just copying the latest trends to get a quick buck, I couldn’t be happier
I agree I've heard if Bullet echo but have not played it yet.
The worst thing they ever did to the original Cut the Rope is that, in a recent update, they deleted all of the boxes. I'm not even kidding, now you had a singular play button to get levels from every single box from all seasons at random which obviously kills a lot of the difficulty curve. Thankfully they changed it back after backlash but still, why the hell did they think this was a good idea?
Greed, and stupid decisions.
I’m sorry, they deleted the boxes at some point?? Huh??
@@unclegrandpagaming165 Correct. I actually caught this update live. It happened last year, but thankfully only lasted for a few weeks
@@ferringsylveon219 it was more stupid than greedy if you ask me
idk, my guess is they wanted to advertise the game as "procedurely generated" or something like that
I missed Cut the rope so much. It's so sad seeing what it is now, for me when it went into 3d it was it's downfall.
{{ EDIT!! }}
GUYS! Dear, i was speaking out of my crevice with this comment! This has been blowing up my notifications. This is embarassing! Just to let you all know, i barely know anything about Cut the rope, i played it as a child, liked it, never cared about it alot, and once it got so famous it started releasing toys, i lost interest. About the '3d' thing, i literally JUST remember a stupid ass apple holder about it, and that's the 3d part of my comment. Sorry, have a nice 2024, and i hope you'll have a bright future!
Atleast you can still play the older games with no differences tho, and you can just ignore these "downfall" content from them
I mean 3D is basically needed now to stand out, 2D Art just doesn’t have the same pull as it used to even though it has a lot of charm.
@@Azurethewolf168 aw hell nah that’s fully incorrect
@@jod422 how
@@Azurethewolf168 Bruh just claimed that your claim is incorrect and doesn’t even say why 💀
I still remember when Zepto Labs actually confirmed that Om-Nom was bisexual.
What
And a co founder said this: “some members of our staff (now fired) felt it was unnecessary and gross to add sexuality on to Om Nom (especially considering he is a child in the early games)."
Wow. Firing staff for having a different opinion. What a nice person
@@philipreid2542 so anyone who has been through the state of the wonders of childhood means they can't have a sexuality
Huh neat
@@philipreid2542 what's more funny to me is that he cares about a non existent thing more about actual children who could stumble upon this.
@@philipreid2542 source please?
Cut the Rope was an all time classic in my young age-
Man I’m old-
@gargling221 if you were talking about me, then FYI, I am -_-
This is one of those mobile games that I had fun playing back then and only came back for nostalgia, so at least it was a refreshening experience.
Before this video, I thought Cut The Rope got the BEST ending out of all of the original iconic mobile games... I was very wrong, anyways Cut The Rope movie when? (also, i love how Danerade messes up in half of the gameplay lmao)
It's still the second best imo
Better than angry birds a bit worse than fruit ninja and jetpack joyride
not really they got nfts and horrible updates
dreamworks was actually going to make a cut the rope movie, rise of gru just took its development spot, it could very much still happen
“HES BISEXUAL?!” Got me dyin💀
Oh yeah, there's one thing that A LOT of people don't know and/or misunderstood about.
So basically Zeptolab decided to make two separate versions of each and every Cut the Rope game (except for Remastered, obviously). Each game now has a f2p and paid version, called the normal version and the GOLD version, which imo is a great decision that theyve made. The real problem here is the goddamn naming.
Funnily enough, the GOLD version is actually the original version of the game, the one that you have to pay a dollar to buy and unlock all the game content the way it's supposed to be. While the NORMAL version, is actually the new F2P one, you can get the game for free and technically you can still play all of its levels, but each game has its own f2p marketing system (for example, cut the rope classic has season 2 and 3 locked behind starwalls, cut the rope 2, magic and experiments each use an energy system, cut the rope time travel forces you to be online to play, etc) as well as a bunch of ads shoved in.
Because of this awful naming decision, when people check out "Cut the Rope" or "Cut the Rope: Experiments" they'll just think that the games they know and love have become f2p bullshint, without knowing the GOLD versions even exist. Heck, even Danerade here is playing the normal version instead of the GOLD version. So before you complain how Zeptolab made all their games become f2p bullshint, the original games are still there in the form of GOLD versions. Please just buy the GOLD version, or even better, buy the GOLD bundles with multiple GOLD version games.
Update: OK i was talking bout iOS version, just looked up the Android ones and some seem to not have GOLD versions. Idk if this means you have no choice but to buy that disgusting $9.99 subscription.
imagine using ios
there's only one gold version thats available on android and it's the original but it can't run on newer androids
genius zeptolab decision
Fun fact! The original Cut the Rope released on the DSiWare service back in the day.
...it runs as well as you'd think.
It’s incredibly weird that this video happens to come out as soon as I begin playing through all these games again…strange 😮
fun fact, the boxes werent originally split into seasons. they were just all available for free. Om-Nom’s superpowers also werent in the original game. these were added much later and the game is much worse because of it imo
The vibes of omnom being in a cardbord box are so welcoming and makw me feel like a kid 😊
I used to have a om nom plush lmao, no idea where it is now. So sad to see what became of this franchise 😢
My man just forgot about Box Number 7 technically 18, The INVISIBLE BOX which is part or Chapter 1 after you collect all the stars from every Box in every chapter
I miss when cut the rope was enjoyable for all ages
I just came back to your channel and was shocked to find out you'd grown this much congrats on passing 100k subs I used to chat on your pvz brutal livestreams
Side note: If you beat the level, wait for the results screen to show up (which it shows the number of stars you collected) then hit the exit button.
Then what
@@peachymunmagenta It takes you to the level select screen in which respective box you are in.
I hope they make another traditional box or season or even a traditional game but after seeing Om nom run I think I’ve seen enough Om nom for an entire decade.
I remember when I was younger I played cut the rope 2 and the level progression was much different and closer to the original. there was no gatekeeping, no energy system, and no animation when you complete a level. my ipad thankfully never updated the game to get those features
I actually used to play Cut the Rope when it came out, and I actually liked playing the game. It's so sad seeing how ZeptoLab milked Om-Nom so much it's barely recognizable from its roots.
Apart all the mobile traditions i actully wuite like the sequel they kind of leaned more towards a physics game tbh but i can respect it and CTR Magic is great to imo
I didn't expect this video to appear while i was playing cut the rope (not the first game, I completed everything in the first game already)
I remember playing Cut The Rope as a kid, along the lines of Where's My Perry and some Doodle Bunny, and also Sonic 4 Episode 2. The Time Travel theme was pretty neat as well.
Playing the DSI port feels like an indirect nostalgia trip, even if I never played that version when I was younger.
The ads for this game were what drew me in as a child, really just a little guy doing little guy things
Fun fact: there was a christmas special with 25 exclusive levels called Cut the Rope: Holiday Gift in Christmas of 2010. They kept tweaking it until 2013 and it was still in the App Store until 2015, when it was removed.
18:34
"Woah, he's bisexual? I didn't know that!"
"BY THE WAY I'M BISEXUAL-"
I payed money for cut the rope gold, when i saw it at the playstore with the thought of "Hey lets re-experience this old game!"
Guess what, CTR (No, not crash team racing) Gold, ONLY removes ads. This is the ONLY change. You still have to pay for upgrades, hints and additional seasons.
Hiya! I rarely comment on your videos but your videos got me through some tough times and I love watching you talk about mobile games! This video was well made and I hope you do more of them on these classic games
Sorry for a late response. This was really touching to hear, I’m glad I can make the world slightly better through my goofy videos :).
Love your videos, bro! Great to see another young creator doing so well!
5:40 In Layman's terms, speedy thing goes in, speedy thing comes out.
I disagree with your opinion that the cosmic box is the worst. Being able to switch gravity is one of the best gimmicks the game has to offer. The amount of versatility it has changes the level design a lot. It also isn't that hard. Idk why you were struggling with it.
just a skill issue moment :( ):
18:32 what a discovery
fake devs never say that
@@legbender1584 %100 REAL !!!!💅💅💅
I’m so glad you ended the video mentioning he was bisexual, because if you didn’t as an Om Nom Stan I would have to steal your credit card information and subscribe you to the Zeptolab Cut the Rope subscription service for the rest of time
haha stoopid gae trust fabricated shitstorm
no homo in russian gamie 🤡
Zeptolab just noticed your video and tweeted a link to it, lmao
They're so real for that
The funniest part is how self-aware they are in their tweet by saying "We got roasted!"
It feels like New Year since we have been blessed with a new Danerade video
My internal clock when it comes to classic mobile games is so fucked up I feel like this came out 10 years before where's my water like ads weren't even on here when I played it
Literally just finished getting all stars on every level of the og game today, pretty cool
I've been playing Remastered a lot as of late, and the game's good. Yeah, the artstyle is not for everyone and the game is all recycled content, but at least it means that this game is fundamentally sound and well-made. I even like the new content that they added to the classic worlds. It's a good return to form for a series that desperately needed it. (Now that I think about it, Apple Arcade's doing a lot of that for classic mobile game franchises.)
you can still unlock the boxes in season 3 if you just watch ads in the preview
A lot of cut the rope is still the same good fun it was before, far from perfect like you described, but unlike something like angry birds you can actually still play it and actually have fun. Yes ads are annoying, but honestly the only game that I feel like is half unplayable is experiments which has only 10 lives (resets included). I completely agree that the energy system sucks in CTR2, but 70 (I think?) base energy is actually really good in comparison to something like candy crush, it still can be enjoyable even if those side missions are pretty bad, but you can skip the gates if you watch an ad (which is still bad, but it probably takes less time then actually playing the side missions). The "rip-off" games like run are annoying yes, but they are inoffensive since zepto lab isn't forcing you to play them or anything unlike some specific company that took down most of their games to encourage people to play the millionth match-3 ripoff. So IMO CTR is still good and fun, just has lots of ads now :/.
one of my favourite youtubers has uploaded finally uploaded another video. a blessing from the lord
There is an exploit to not encounter ads. If you mess up on any level, pause the game, then tap the exit button, and finally go back to the level you were at. It works every time for my playthrough.
Oh boy another Danerade video explaining the downfall of a beloved childhood game
I remember I was hanging out with a friend, and she had told me about the fact that apparently there was a boss fight in cut the rope 2 against a T-rex... From my memory of her description it was a glorified time limit and Roto was apparently involved. Needless to say, I beat every level in the game, no T-rex. I was severely disappointed. Side note: My favorite game in the series is experiments, followed by time travel. I'm not sure why I like them so much, I just do. Maybe it's because experiments was the first game in the series I played? I dunno.
Cut the Rope is my favorite game to play during a hanging
The orientation was unexpected
So excited Danerade is here talking about my favorite game for the Nintendo 3DS family of consoles
Honestly almost every cut the rope game is kind of good, except 2, i especially liked the classic, experiments and magic after replaying them just now -the really only problem with magic is the energy system, otherwise it is just as good as the other 2 classic ones, i feel like it's an underrated cut the rope game; plus minus the amount of ads that has in the games are a real shame for Zeptolab
i honestly love cut the rope 2, i believe the decision to make it energy based, and have an overworld map was shitty, but its still a fun game, the new friends are all unique ideas and are well designed, when i played it nearer to when it came out the game didnt have energy or an overworld, just “boxes” of sorts with levels based around each new friend, i believe it to be the best version of the game, but cut the tope 2 is still great
I still have the Om Nom plush lol. Om Nom is a cutie for sure, at least every game before Cut The Rope remastered (Om Nom looks kinda weird there)
18:33 good for him
fake from them
@leg bender Actually said by an employee btw
hearing Pizza Tower music while you talk about Cut The Rope is something i would never expect to love
edit: 18:32 thats actually a joke from a satire Cut The Rope news website "Om News". Yep, theres a CTR news satire website that once said that Om Nom is bi.
gays on their way to hype a joke
The best part is that it was said by a Zeptolap Employee (it's canon guys!!!)
@@legbender1584 *OMG!! ON NOM IS BI !!!!* 💅💅💅💅💅🤯🤯🤯🤯
Your talking about realeasing new games while the company still updates old ones
Me: ever heard of a small game company called NINJA KIWI
I personally believe that Danerade should make a video on the game known as Psychonauts.
A masterpiece video on a classic game of our childhood what a day
At least ZeptoLab doesn’t delete their original games because of them making alot of money
absolutely love the stretched png backgrounds for the pc port
Dumb question, was cut the rope 2 always this way? I remember I got to the end of it and it having a more world base structure like the original but unlike what was shown in the video, am I miss remembering or what?
No you're right.
There were two versions. The free version was the map-based version, while the paid iOS version adopted a format like the original with level packs.
@@elevatorz89 Ok, makes sense.
I remember seeing om nom merge and thinking it was unofficial
The one thing I remember about Cut the Rope 2 is that I once found a glitch that let you watch ads for currency over and over, so I just spammed that for like an hour until I had enough to buy one of the purchasable hats that gives you infinite energy. Yeah, they expect you to pay to get rid of the energy system
Ah yes, a truly amazing bisexual icon.
I’m nom already has a child and now he likes men too. I can’t wait for cut the rope: divorce because om nom wants to kiss Ryan Reynolds
i love the yippey 16:48
Cut the Rope is a cute Cash Cow
I remember Cut the rope. The original one, I collected 3 stars on every level on every box up until the DJ box cause thats when I put down the game. I tried experiments and time travel and hated cut the rope 2 cause of the energy system.
There were a few other games more like the original game that I feel should have been mentioned here, like experiments and time travel
man i miss this game, i for some reason kept watching the cartoon they made on it
Pov: pizza tower fans when they here pizza tower music: IS THAT A PIZZA TOWER SONG!?!?!?!?!?!
I love watching gatorade
"He's bisexual!?"
-danerade 2023
I was stunned to see that confirmation as well, but I’m still glad that Zeptolab decided it was best for Om Nom to come out.
Om-Nom: The bisexual icon we didn't know we needed until now
I LOVED THIS GAME
Brings me back
I wanna see you rate the other games equivalents of boxes. And i gotta know ur commentary on cut the rope magic (my personal favorite)
Cut the rope always made me want that candy IRL. It actually looked good
Imagine Zepto sold that candy as merchandise
did anyone else have a comic book of this game? it was about a kid who received om nom in the mail, i had the first one and i have no idea if theres more
Cut the Rope was my favorite app!
Cut the Rope Experiments was THE REAL Cut the Rope 2
God editing ngl
Fun Fact: Om Nom is a Candy Eating Dinosaur
If you preview the seasons, you can watch an ad to unlock the first box and then you can get to season 2 and 3 without paying money or 3 starring all the levels
i like how the note in the paper describes your reaction hahahahah
Happy pride to Om Nom specifically
Now who can forget about Cut the Rope? It's the easiest game ever for school stuff, you can do Russian stuff off your own, it's like that Cut the Rope has 17 boxes and it does, mechanical box is the hardest one, because there is a sticker saying that it's the hardest one.
I LOVED THIS GAME. ZEPTO HOW DARE YOU
0:08 fin.
Cut the rope came out the same year i was born
Cut the rope is pure nostalgia
You forgot to mention the Om Nom NFTs lol
So you will review cut the rope experiments, time travel and magic in a part 2 or what?
And he’s back
I still have my om nom plushie to this very day
and then cut the rope came back by BEING PUT ON FUCKING COOLMATHGAMES
I remember I got all level 3 star as a kid and when I reinstalled it I just got the first 2 seasons 3 stared because after I unlocked season 3 I was far too lazy
It might be a cash cow, but its a REALLY good one
18:32 *snapcube jet voice* BISEXUAL RIGHTS
Did you buy the unlock season 3 or did you do the subscription
