Something I've noticed about the sound design is that the level-completion jingle start playing a few moves before actually finishing a level. Having such convoluted mechanics and mechanics stacking, I think this is an ingenious sound design.
The game has so many ways to soft lock and hard lock the player in any given level that it's very easy to have them overthink everything and it's just mentally taxing in general, so it can be reasonably assumed that a player will get to a point where they will miss even the most obvious things. Having the jingle a few moves before level completion avoids those frustrating moments where the player is so close to completing a level but just didn't. The game tells you "that's it, that's the level, feel free to complete it, we didn't prepare any more twists.".
That's my favorite piece of polish in this game. It's presumably got a partial level solver implemented, so it can see a few moves into the future. Aside from starting the level-completion jingle early so it usually finishes when you solve the puzzle, that's probably also how they detect that you've failed the level: it gives you the prompt to undo even if you can still move around some, once you've entered into a set of moves you can't escape from. That's a lifesaver in this game on some of the tighter levels. Coincidentally, I once designed some assignments to teach students in an AI class about solving a simpler version of this exact type of puzzle, about moving worms around while their tail trails behind them. It turns out that you can use the same algorithms normally used for pathfinding in games to search for a "path" through the state space of a puzzle.
(pink zone spoilers)
it does get annoying when you're trying to find a solution for the "bridge the gap" puzzles and you don't want to end the puzzle yet, so you sometimes hear the jingle when you're not ready to end the puzzle
@@an_asp Spot on! I already had code to look ahead a few moves to detect when the player is stuck in order to show the undo/restart prompt. I realized since I was already doing this search ahead anyway then I could also do the win-state check & jingle for no extra work!
I find this game's ability to introduce new mechanics without introducing new things fascinating, there has been so many times watching this series where I've thought to myself, well surely they've ran out of new mechanics to introduce without introducing a new object or controlling multiple worms at once and luckily this game keeps proving me wrong.
He's only just scratched the surface!
I'm just waiting for him to get up to world 7. I'm stuck on one puzzle XD
This game reminds me of A Monster's Expedition so much, they're both simple games with so much depth it's insane. Truly gems of the puzzle genre
@@baconeko Thank you ♥
@@muntedfinger People have probably already told you this, but you've made an amazing game!
The exquisite joy of 28 minutes of Tyler and His Worms is *perfect.*
His fat fat worms too
this is the most funniest sh!t lmao
I don't like how "his worms" is capitalized
Worded perfectly.
You get the funny award
It's amazing how people can come up with such unique puzzle games
... You is Baba

Baba

Woah, Baba, it's you!
NO WAY ITS BABA
This is my favorite series that Tyler is still uploading. I love the unique puzzles that involve worms!!
it's really creative how they make such hard and unique puzzles with very few mechanics
*Edit: That Tyler has uploaded in awhile. Very creative.*
0:18 Thanks Dan. That edit made my day!
just got a 100% in this game. I cannot wait for the revelations Tyler is gonna have solving these puzzles. hoping he goes for a 100%, too. all of the puzzles were genuinely the best
Having gotten 100% in this game as well, I totally agree. I just wish he'd appreciate the tails of the ships more
Double stuffed worms and socking are now the official terms
I’m ready for more mind-bending puzzles! Every once in a while I can actually follow along!
its not mind-bending, its mind-worming
@@gabenugget114 It's worm-bending.
I love the kinda creepy, incredibly whimsical atmosphere
This series is up there with Baba and The Witness for me. Can't wait to see how the rest of the game progresses!

Hey Tyler, I’m Andrew (just a casual circus jester) and I figured I should also start commenting to help your algorithm. 👍🏻
Emotion Dumb: I am a huge fan of your content; you take silly little games and complete them with such a level of intelligence. This is probably the only program I keep up on religiously; I NEVER miss an episode. I get myself snacks and ready for when it drops at 11pm (central time), highlight of my night. Probably been watching for years, got hooked on your poly bridge content and have been with since. This last year I worked in Quebec; being so far from my American norms was hard, but this was the normality I rebalanced with nightly at midnight (eastern time). I just love what you are doing, star quality, 11 out of 10.
TLDR: A+ content. Tyler is a genius and the Editor(s) are lowkey really funny af (love the face-crop cutaways).
damn tyler is actually nuts. I took 30+ minutes on many of these puzzles and most of the time he just figures out the idea right from the start
The consistency of alien rocks uploading at 12am exactly is hounestly impressive, good job on ruining people’s sleep schedule
Edit: I’m Canadian for anyone wondering
11pm for me
9 pm for me
imagine living on the east coast
West coast gang
6am for me
Can't wait to see the meta gameplay and the secrets this game holds.
Some of my favorite puzzle games and tyler series have been: the witness baba is you and a monsters expedition.
It's like parabox, trying to get into a thing by pushing it against a wall. Though in this case it's more about getting it in you, but you could also do that in that game.
I haven't watched any of this series of Tyler's yet, I'll get there eventually
The game's not that scary as long as you start from episode 1! As a heads up, episode 4 is one hell of a difficulty spike, but episode 5 becomes much more followable.
@@Aliensrock it's probably because he wants to play it himself, that's why I usually wait to watch puzzle serieses. You're a gold detector when it comes to puzzle games so I know to avoid spoiling myself when you play a puzzle game
Alright I've finally binged the series up to this point
Most underrated channel on youtube👏🏼👏🏼
They actually changed the reverse C and r piece puzzle in the cactus zone to prevent unintended solutions. The intended solution for that one is quite fun
The intended solution is so satisfying. Everything lines up perfectly
it's getting more and more mindblowing, how can this possibly be!
The last puzzle had a very elegant solution where you would sock the U-shaped worm last, and then swap between either side to roll over to the other side in one motion. Yet your solution was impressive either way.
lets go another amazing puzzle solving video of really cool puzzles
I love the double-stuff worm mechanic, sad it didn't end up being used that much
edit: also, the last puzzle had a much simpler solution; the bottom block is there for a reason
i also think I missed the bottom block :L
Loved the longer video! Glad to see the game didn't lose all it's magic after jumping to the late game zone so early. On the one hand I kinda like the freedom of going wherever but on the other I think it'd be better if the game didn't let you get to that worm that early in the game. It uses too many shenanigans and the layout of the levels doesn't help in hidding the unlearned stuff
I think it'd be kinda fun if he implemented some kind of time to see how long puzzles took him if they have any cuts
The two screens in each of the tails of the ships provide useful information, just letting you know
This series really brings me back to Baba Is You and how amazing the puzzles in that game were.
this is the only puzzle game i've watched for multiple episodes where i didn't get at least one solution before the person in the video did, tyler is absolutely crushing this game
Really enjoying this play through, I'm excited to see the late game :)
I am enjoying this series so much! Really nice puzzle game
The symbol for sausage world reminds me of the fork from Stephen's Sausage Roll.
100%ed it between the last video and this one (after only being barely ahead) I am so excited to see Tyler solving some of them, especially some I got stuck on for a while
love this series so far, know this will be a great vid!
waiting for the seiries to be completed like baba is you so i can binge watch it when I'm less sad. keep going mate!
A good morning starts with playing with your worm
Love the cacti reference in the (Room to grow puzzle game) looooooooong title!!
dan's editing is amazing
That was indeed very creative worm-play
I excited for the next episode. I bet the games going to get really interesting starting then
"This worm wants to be socked" relatable
Long worm and fat worm.
All worms are loved equally.
ESPECIALLY THE LONG FAT WORM!!!
Wow, this game in crazy, been such a joy watching it!!!!
The editors went through the effort of making a fake Yelp review over a single sentence. I mean, sure, probably isn't TOO hard to do, but it definitely takes longer than the time to say that sentence, and adds unnecessary editing time. And yet they still did it, the fucking madlads they are.
I feel like I'm praising Tyler's editors more than I'm praising him nowadays. Kinda weird, but I'm down. (And tbf, Tyler's always been a legend and has gotten his fair share of praise. Without that, he wouldn't have been able to build a channel that needed editors, and he also had the foresight and knowledge to pick out god-tier editors, among probably at least dozens that applied.)
Also, Potionomics?
Cut my worm into pieces, this is my flip and sock.
Articulation, through steering
Don't get a sock if I cut a worm feeding
This is my flip and sock
came for the potions, stayed for the worm
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TYLER
WOOOO🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Kind of excited to see if they do anything in the over world.
I love the small tyler saying "Watch your back"
I’ve noticed that the can of wormhole videos have less average views than other games. which is fine, this game rocks.
its just unfortunate that not everybody thinks this game rocks
TYLER DO BE HAVING THAT GALAXY BRAIN MOVE PERMANENTLY AND MAJESTIC!!!😂😂😂
All hail the fat worm!
The ending was such a cliffhanger! Now I desperately wanna watch the cutscene!
Tyler has looked at the screens, but he has yet to show, on video, that he understands there are:
Two monitors per ship
Hints on the monitors that would help him reach some of the puzzles he's interested in
i have gotten 100% in this game already and every time you go to a new puzzle i say to myself "oh fuck this puzzle, this one was so tough" and then Tyler completes it in 2 minutes
The mechanic shown around 18 minutes in has Monster's expedition vibes
3:11 I am pretty sure you could also push them straight into the hole in the end of the puzzle instead of dividing by 2 and eating them
i just imagined a puzzle that is 2,were each is just a different worm being controled
If you go to the back of the Chrismas worm there's a hint on how to access the puzzle you couldn't
I sure do love long worms
13:45 at last! I now know that socked worms can't be used in those
I wouldn’t say it’s a small worm, I’d say it’s pretty average. With some great puzzles too
I love watching tyler play with he worm
There are puzzle videos I can follow instinctively, there are those I can follow once Tyler explains, and then there’s this game. It feels to me like the solution is an accident every time and I just can’t see how you got there deliberately. Madness
This legit could be the best puzzle game of the year
loving this series!
Pretty sure the first puzzle has an alternate solution. Slice the 3 long like before, then push the c across to split it but then only push the outside half into the goal and the 4 long worm can fill the rest
Man I love this series so much
Damned cliffhanger, i need more worms!!! wonder where putting a ring on it will come into play..
Ah a cliffhanger!
Very nice
Great Vid as always, keep it up!
Absolutely love the editing
Use the speed of the can to lunch the worm even further on the other side
I like how the symbol for the fat worm area actually look like the steven's sausage roll poker
28 minutes of pure joy
Idk if he will see this but there’s a mechanic to throw your can that you learned earlier
Please note that the mechanics are as followed: slicing, socking, fence rotating, fence cutting, and worm falling
I love you and your content Tyler!
Can you put a Timer on the screen, to get a sense of which puzzles you struggle with, and how long you take to solve them?
Hell yes new worm game vid fresh out the oven let's goo
0:30 mmm yes RCE gonna be happy
0:18 I hate it when my chef's self sock themselves
Not sure how you get to some of those puzzles, but I notice that when you put your ring in, it sends them out to the fork-like bits. Some of those line up across puzzles, maybe there's a way to send it through puzzles and into another?
so happy it was a 28 min video
Love watching Tyler playing with his worm for almost half an hour
8:32 what kind of exercise is this worm doing
I got the story teller ad when watching this😱 maybe make more content about it if you can
Cutscene?! Cactus worms?! What is this ending?!
"I love you fat worm" - Tyler 2023
Tyler loves his worms.
Oh. You are too clever. I would not ever solve this puzzles. Beter not even try this game for me, to not waste time
Not sure if this counts as a mini spoiler or not Tyler but you can start the puzzle you left behind in world 4. You don’t need anything else to start it besides a little trick
Did Tyler ever try going UNDER that one fence?
There is no better way to start my morning than watching Tyler's new video🔥
Time zones and stuff make it so it ends my day
Only real gamers remember the loooooooong cactus puzzle.
i would need to look, but what if the alternate puzzle access points depend on the position of the "ship worm"?
We have now found the worm, Worm, and WORM
you have a very calming voice
First the looooooong cactus and then the looooooong worm? What’s next in Tyler’s looooooong cinematic universe?
I've been waiting all day for another video!
Good math, Tyler!
I LOVE LONG WORMS!!!
