"if you are under 18 skip this part of the video" "if you remember geocities you are too old to watch this video" If you are specifically in the 18-24 year old age range you are the perfect age to enjoy this video.
I've already played a short hike and I can absolutely recommend it. I can also recommend "Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion". It's a cute Zeldalike action adventure with such a good humor and characters.
I forgot what the show was called, I watched it when i was little on my ds.. on this app I believe it was called nintendo video? they had like 4 vids that you could watch every day and baman and piderman was one of them. I just went on such a nostalgia trip watching every episode oml
Can 1000% agree. I freaking LOVED every bit of the non-stop 5 hours I spent playing it from start to finish, and it really calmed me down. I wish for more games like it.
@@SlayerOmair I actually recently found a game similar to A Short Hike called Lil Gator Game. I highly recommend it if you enjoyed A Short Hike. It’s a really cute game with a larger scale open map, more things to collect, way more cute/interesting dialogue, and a risk-free playing experience. There’s a lot more to the game, obviously, but it’s way more fun to play it than read about it. I genuinely think it’s dethroned A Short Hike as my favorite game
That’s exactly what I came to the comments to say! I tried to watch a video of superliminal because it looks so fun but I just got super sick instead :(
hypnospace outlaw is probably one of my favorite games I've played. I was born 2000 so i only really saw the tail end of that era of the internet, but something about it just has this, very personal vibe? It feels very genuine, and conveys the human condition in a way _I'm_ most familiar with - on the internet. It's been a couple years since I played through it but every time I see it I get a little emotional, and nostalgic in a way I might feel nostalgic for the actual internet _I_ grew up with.
I'm from 1991 and totally agree. The "bloggosphere" being new and kind of the wild west of media like tv used to be and radio before that, was pure and raw in that way because things like facebook hadn't yet tried to conglomerate all people to one website to mine them for content yet. When that happened it was so obviously just a way to get free labor. Even the site we're talking on right now is using this conversation as a way to push advertisement. During the older internet, this conversation would be on an email list, a bbcode forum, a personal website comment section, or an irc chat. Of course, not everything about social media is bad. There's lots of good things about it. but I hope more people will feel free to create neocities-type sites and carve out their own personal corner of the internet. Kind of like how work portfolios and wordpress & tumblr pages work, but entirely self-contained and all-encompassing. I highly recommend checking out the current neocities scene and brushing up on a basic HTML/CSS course at something like W3 schools. Web development has only ever gotten easier and more powerful so that's awesome ^^. I'm building one myself ^^
Good news for you: the studio is making a sequel set on the internet of the 2000s, so you might be able to live through your own experience of the internet soon enough!
I remember the first time i talked to my now bf, i was watching him play a short hike for hours and i read all the dialogue out loud. It was really nice.
how was ur first time talking to them, at their house watching them play games. Did u just follow a stranger indoors and then say hi once u were inside.
Honestly, I loved the ending of Superliminal. The game is all about perspective, both pysically within the game and mentally within the message of the ending. It's...really nice. Maybe not from a gameplay standard, but...damn.
The entire point of those kinds of games is to be entirely philosophical in a way. I've seen a lot of 3D puzzle games that dive into such an experience where it feels like the floor from beneath you dissolves. It captures those experiences really well and I think it's really nice.
I feel like theres a bit of a divide between people who play it. Its either confusing & pretentious, or fascinating & inspiring. I feel the reason the ending makes-or-breaks it for most folk, is because up until that point they’ve been stumbling their way forward. They didn’t try seeing things from a new perspective, they brute forced their way forward.
yeah , I strongly agree too . sure the surprises and new mechanics the game threw at you did start to dwindle towards the end but the story was very interesting and incredibly thought provoking in my opinion.
The Invisible Hours reminds me a LOT of The Return Of The Obra Dinn, by Lucas Pope (yes, the same guy behind Papers Please). A first person detective game where you have to figure out the fates of every last person that disappeared on a big trading ship, and your only means of doing so is to see the exact moment of a person’s death, and use context clues and following trails of deaths to figure out who’s who and where and who did what. The game’s visual style is super unique, having a pixelated harsh-lighting look. The voice acting is stellar, and the music is REALLY good for what it is! By the time i finished the game i was just ACHING for more, the gameplay loop of deduction and discovering clues was THAT satisfying
the cheese pasta person is literally me back when i lived with my parents, i always told them to please rinse or wash anything with cheese/sauce that would otherwise stick to the plate if left in the sink too long, so it makes it easier for whoever's turn it is to do the dishes. they never listened...
"bigger better videos coming soon" - hey man if you want to make smaller videos like this thats fine too i trust you and will glady watch a video like this if its from you. im esspecially likely to try these games if there recomended from you and quite frankly could really use some fun stuff given the previous year
I STRONGLY DISAGREE! Being as famous as I am on TH-cam, I know that it gets hard to read every comment I get. I try my best, but I am just so famous, that I can't do it much longer. Sorry, dear dav
0:39 "Suddenly, a giant claw reached into Noodle's house, grabbed Noodle and his couch, threw them on the floor, before placing a giant green sheet onto the wall. And then Noodle's ghost phased through the floor."
Dude while I was watching this I hear my brother start Pikumiku in the other room Lol i think he just vividly heard the music from the video and it started an itch that needed scratched Its such a good game and i would replay it just for the good feels
I wasn't surprised when they sponsored the lord of fleshlight-fu Pengiunz0. Now this random psuedo wholesome youtuber I have never seen before? I am surprised.
I gotta also recommend Tunic to anyone who sees this. Adorable little rpg, incredible music, phenomenal art style, and no lie some of the best puzzles I’ve ever seen in a video game. The final puzzle is absolutely insane and will never fail to blow my mind even when I know how to solve it
Holy hecc, The moment you said "Badman and Piderman" I felt a rush of nostalgia wash over me And I am convinced that Later Alligator is a masterpiece now
I completely agree! Another game like this that I would recommend to every A Short Hike player is Lil Gator Game. Genuinely dethroned A Short Hike as my favorite game
I got a Short Hike for free on Epic due to a deal and liked it so much I felt bad I got it for free, so I went and also bought it on Steam, lol. It’s seriously great! Later Alligator’s been sitting on my wishlist for a while too!
@@noodlefunny great now I want to get superlimal or whatever it's called, now it's two hard games I gotta beat, one being re7 madhouse, actually I just had a vid idea, re7 madhouse is a good way of upping difficulty without losing you to a same experience haha
Superliminal is one of the only games I've been able to replay over and over again. I found it through Xbox Game Pass and have begged so many people to play it. Have to agree with you over the story fails at the end. I still found the story unique, but it had a lot more potential than it reached.
I played Hypnospace Outlaw because of this video and its probably one of the best indie video games that ive played this year! Thanks for the recommendation!
I bought PikuNiku because of this, ironically it was on sale at the time. Easily well worth the 3 bucks. Though that bridge objective had me frustrated for longer than I care to admit.
I’ve played pikuniku and superliminal, and let me tell you, they both are some of my most favorite games of all time. I constantly come back to them to play them again, and I just honestly love them sm. They have a special place in my heart :] Edit: I’ve also recently started playing a short hike and Hypnospace outlaw (because their both on Xbox gamepass) and both are really good :DD I also got stuck on a few things in Hypnospace outlaw tho lol-
I've played pikuniku, a short hike, superliminal and hypnospace outlaw, I can confirm they're all amazing underrated Indies that im begging to be recognised more
Okay so I played Hypnospace Outlaw a while back and it is literally one of the most memorable games I have ever played. I never got to experience the feeling of browsing the internet back in the era that this game is mimicking, but it feels like a nice little trip down a nonexistent memory lane. And you get so attached to all of the characters along the way when you get to see each of their unique personalities and how they interact with each other on the same platform you’re using! All in all, this game really surprised me and managed to greatly subvert my expectations! Oh and the MUSIC OH THE MUSIC. It’s so frickin good like man... but anyways I couldn’t recommend it more! sorry for the paragraph I’m just really passionate about this game
I'm barely a minute in but I have to say I'm in LOVE with the setup and editing! The stick puppets are super cute, and the cardboard diorama is really well made!
Question: Is it-like- difficult? I know that's an open-ended question, but I want to get the game and am a bit worried about not knowing where to go and things like that.
A short hike was so good!! It had animal crossing vibes. I can only describe it as playing a summer game while curled up in a blanket on a cozy fall evening. MMM IT'S SO GOOD
I’d also recommend “Omori”. It’s a psychological horror game that looks phenomenal. The art style is great and it gives a vibe similar to earthbound. It seems very story oriented with an interesting mystery around your character, what he’s been through, and the world he’s in. It’s also got this cool combat system where you change the emotions of teammates and enemies to impact stats and the effects of certain skills.
A Short Hike was pretty cool, and the development story by Adam Robinson-Yu was even cooler. If you're looking for another cool indie game to play when you have some time out to spare, consider checking out Rain World. Really great pixel art and thought provoking narrative and a really unexpected world building. It is a somewhat "bad reputation" for being a bit harder then most 2d platformers but it's really worth the time investment! Really unique experience... Hope to have struck your curiosity! :)
Rain Word is AMAZING. It’s so beautiful and the physics are really fun once you get used to them. You feel like a badass because you’re so helpless but you manage to take down things so much bigger than you. Still haven’t finished it, but highly recommend.
@@williamsmith6921 yeah ive heard of most of them, i played through PikuNiku, A Short Hike, and Superliminal, none of these games are super well hidden or anything, theyre fairly well known.
At 4:29 when you said the best character is Bob, the song "Happiest Girl" (a love song) played over your voice lol. Also great vid i really like the transitions and the comedic lines and stuff, happy to find your channel, new subscriber for sure! God bless man.
Superliminal is one of my favourite games EVER, and every time I re-play it I still get surprised. It’s one of those games that you can play over and over again and it never gets less interesting because there’s so much detail. I think it’s very underrated, so thank you for sharing!
LOVED A Short Hike and was so glad it made the cut. Literally the calmest I've ever been playing a game. Truly felt like just enjoying the world around me. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
I agree so much with this sentiment!! I’ve actually recently found another game similar to A Short Hike called Lil Gator Game that I highly recommend! It has no fighting system, a fun little story, cute character interactions, and really nice controls like A Short Hike, but with higher resolution, a bigger world, and a bigger roster of unique characters. A Short Hike is genuinely one of my favorite games but I’ve gotta say, Lil Gator Game might’ve dethroned it as my favorite
first vid i watched of yours and im in love with the carboard cut out backround that seems to be an actual box you've drawn things on with a marker and have put in a room you get a sub off that alone i love art styles like this and i appreciate the sofa being a separate thing to give a layer of 3d to it all
me: oh pikuniku sounds kinda cool... maybe i'll download it later- noodle: with wonderful music from bo en- me: * HEADS TOWARD STEAM TO DOWNLOAD IT IMMEDIATELY *
Why do I feel like The Knife is gonna glance over my shoulder at a stern faced, suit wearing alligator and cut off the conversation to chase after him?
Thanks to this video I discovered the masterpieces that are Later Alligator and Hypnospace Outlaw, and convinced me to play A Short Hike. Unironically want another video like this. Superliminal would've been in one of the "games I discovered from this video and loved" list but sadly I already watched a whole playthrough of it several times and playing it myself would've lost its magic.
I’m not a gamer, but It’s so nice that I follow someone who loves indie games and I’ve seen him play most of these games. And yes, they are really good games.
I just saw your video on my recommended and oh my goodness I love the way you animate your video with physical drawings and cardboard!! So fresh in a youtube saturated with cutesie cartoon animated speakers.

Can 1000% agree. I freaking LOVED every bit of the non-stop 5 hours I spent playing it from start to finish, and it really calmed me down. I wish for more games like it.

it is !!! absolutely stunning !!!!!! story and visually wise
I played Hypnospace Outlaw because of this video and its probably one of the best indie video games that ive played this year! Thanks for the recommendation!
"As a friend, I'm going to recommend you these games.
At gunpoint."
I mean Gunpoint is a pretty good game, if that's what you mean.
Nice pfp
as friends do
I've played Later Alligator and Hypnospace Outlaw, and they are easily some of my favorite games that I've played.
Because of THIS video, i have played PIKUNIKU and i liked the game a lot! (•‿•)
I bought PikuNiku because of this, ironically it was on sale at the time. Easily well worth the 3 bucks.
Though that bridge objective had me frustrated for longer than I care to admit.
yeah just kick everything that exists, including spiders.
(not limited to pikuniku)
if you aren't being violent towards everything and everyone that exists in pikuniku then you're playing it wrong
How is that ironic?
SAME OH MY GOD
sameee
I’ve played pikuniku and superliminal, and let me tell you, they both are some of my most favorite games of all time. I constantly come back to them to play them again, and I just honestly love them sm. They have a special place in my heart :]
Edit: I’ve also recently started playing a short hike and Hypnospace outlaw (because their both on Xbox gamepass) and both are really good :DD I also got stuck on a few things in Hypnospace outlaw tho lol-
so when you beat pikuniku you still go back to it for more?
@@BRALEHAM1 yep! I constantly re-start the game and play it all over again. One of my favorite experiences!!
This video was just an excuse so Noodle could draw himself as a furry.
That and included with the questionable promotion
Scali. They prefer to be called scalies
@@vivdlyvague6627 same shit different day
Wait, at what point in the video did that happen
@@Erhannis 4:32
I've played pikuniku, a short hike, superliminal and hypnospace outlaw, I can confirm they're all amazing underrated Indies that im begging to be recognised more
Okay so I played Hypnospace Outlaw a while back and it is literally one of the most memorable games I have ever played. I never got to experience the feeling of browsing the internet back in the era that this game is mimicking, but it feels like a nice little trip down a nonexistent memory lane. And you get so attached to all of the characters along the way when you get to see each of their unique personalities and how they interact with each other on the same platform you’re using! All in all, this game really surprised me and managed to greatly subvert my expectations! Oh and the MUSIC OH THE MUSIC. It’s so frickin good like man... but anyways I couldn’t recommend it more!
sorry for the paragraph I’m just really passionate about this game
your cartboard video format is so incredibly charming!
That "The Kife" guy is looking awfully a lot like a certain Mad Dog.
He seems cool.
Goddamnit
@@enricopucci6226 are these gmaes only on pc?
yeah
Some really kiryu chan hours
Sometimes I wish Hypnospace Outlaw was an actual browser. That game had so much aesthetic and charm to it!
YESSSSSSS. I would pay buku bucks for a HSO style firefox overhaul
"this is filler"
Well, it's awesome. I'll always be up for more cardboard vids like this one.
I'm barely a minute in but I have to say I'm in LOVE with the setup and editing! The stick puppets are super cute, and the cardboard diorama is really well made!
i've played hypnospace outlaw in the past and i can confirm its a masterpiece
Question: Is it-like- difficult? I know that's an open-ended question, but I want to get the game and am a bit worried about not knowing where to go and things like that.
@@nocarbonationtm21 it isn't too bad but if you are stumped by it, you can always use a guide
@@gaigedude Good to know, thanks!
It is to the 90s internet what Kung Fury is to the entire decade of the 80s. Utterly distilled to the essence.
@@nocarbonationtm21 im 2 weeks late but theres an in-game guide in case you get stuck!! all you need to do is type hint into the game search bar
A short hike was so good!! It had animal crossing vibes. I can only describe it as playing a summer game while curled up in a blanket on a cozy fall evening. MMM IT'S SO GOOD
I’d also recommend “Omori”. It’s a psychological horror game that looks phenomenal. The art style is great and it gives a vibe similar to earthbound. It seems very story oriented with an interesting mystery around your character, what he’s been through, and the world he’s in. It’s also got this cool combat system where you change the emotions of teammates and enemies to impact stats and the effects of certain skills.
Woah there buddy, all they need to know is that its a cute adorable game with nothing wrong
Yes! YES! Please play Omori! All I will say about it is, if you like surreal RPGs, your gonna like this one.
Omori is good.
There it is
I would love to hear Noodles opinion on Omori
I recommend Dadish, it’s about a radish who’s a dad and you go from level to level rescuing and retrieving your radish children, it’s super cute
A Short Hike was pretty cool, and the development story by Adam Robinson-Yu was even cooler.
If you're looking for another cool indie game to play when you have some time out to spare, consider checking out Rain World.
Really great pixel art and thought provoking narrative and a really unexpected world building. It is a somewhat "bad reputation" for being a bit harder then most 2d platformers but it's really worth the time investment!
Really unique experience... Hope to have struck your curiosity! :)
Rain Word is AMAZING. It’s so beautiful and the physics are really fun once you get used to them. You feel like a badass because you’re so helpless but you manage to take down things so much bigger than you. Still haven’t finished it, but highly recommend.
YES. Rain world is one of my favourite games
I have 100 hours in rain world. It's great. Some of the mods are just crazy! I love Aether Ridge.
"You statistically probably haven't played these-"
*includes Superliminal*
yeah I have played or at least heard of all of these
@@williamsmith6921 yeah ive heard of most of them, i played through PikuNiku, A Short Hike, and Superliminal, none of these games are super well hidden or anything, theyre fairly well known.
Well there are more people who havent played it than people who did
@@itsuno You are so cool
@@reiniermels9288 you could say that for almost every video game in existence
I played "Piku Niku" , now give me my "Cool Kid Certificate Card"
So did i. Give them to us now
And so did I! Give them to us now!
Same
You get nothing but the amazingness of what the game offered you 😌
✨Be thankful you ingrates✨
Same :)
At 4:29 when you said the best character is Bob, the song "Happiest Girl" (a love song) played over your voice lol. Also great vid i really like the transitions and the comedic lines and stuff, happy to find your channel, new subscriber for sure! God bless man.
4:40 "If you don't.. I understand but.. you do make me a little sad"
*Cuts to live footage of your house*
"And then... there's Bub!"
...
:O
:O!!!
I love him already!!!
EDIT: Finally played it! It's fantastic and the ending broke my fucking heart :(
:D
@@DannySullivanMusic (off topic) but your music is AWESOME!!!!
@@thelesbianmenace9341 THANKS! you rule for checking it out man!
@@DannySullivanMusic Holly crap dude! I wasn't expecting the quality haha. :D Do you make music for a living?
Superliminal is one of my favourite games EVER, and every time I re-play it I still get surprised. It’s one of those games that you can play over and over again and it never gets less interesting because there’s so much detail. I think it’s very underrated, so thank you for sharing!
One of my favorite indies is Unpacking. So amazing. Unpacking boxes after moving over the course of several years is so interesting
"Since i was so worried about getting Super Murdered™ today, i did the smart thing and got a special lock for my hotel door!"
wha
@@des6964 from later alligator
All fun and games until the vent is unlocked.
I just finished playing later alligator! Thanks so much, Noodle for recommending these awesome games that I would've never found myself!
I’ve played later alligator, happy to hear other people talk about it.
Just looking at the refrences makes me want to play it
super liminal>>>>
i’ve honestly played this for hours on end and it’s the perfect amount of psychological stuff and gameplay idk it’s just chefs kiss
I loved Later Alligator with all of my heart. SmallBu is a team to watch because everything they touch on the internet turns into gold
Aint gonna lie that green screen set up was one of the best jokes I've seen on TH-cam for a while
Another cool indie game I like is called "The Unfinished Swan." It takes like 4 hours and it's really good
LOVED A Short Hike and was so glad it made the cut. Literally the calmest I've ever been playing a game. Truly felt like just enjoying the world around me. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
I agree so much with this sentiment!! I’ve actually recently found another game similar to A Short Hike called Lil Gator Game that I highly recommend! It has no fighting system, a fun little story, cute character interactions, and really nice controls like A Short Hike, but with higher resolution, a bigger world, and a bigger roster of unique characters. A Short Hike is genuinely one of my favorite games but I’ve gotta say, Lil Gator Game might’ve dethroned it as my favorite
pikuniku and a short hike are two of my favorites so thank you for bringing more attention to them
that transition between Pikuniku and Later Alligator was smoother than butter tho
“they’re recommendations”
sure
i dont get the joke here
More like threats
first vid i watched of yours and im in love with the carboard cut out backround that seems to be an actual box you've drawn things on with a marker and have put in a room you get a sub off that alone i love art styles like this and i appreciate the sofa being a separate thing to give a layer of 3d to it all
"If you do not play any of these, I will be at your door by nightfall"
Me who was watching at night: 0_0
run
disperse
vacate
Ordering same day delivery at 23:59
Fly, you Fool!
me: oh pikuniku sounds kinda cool... maybe i'll download it later-
noodle: with wonderful music from bo en-
me: * HEADS TOWARD STEAM TO DOWNLOAD IT IMMEDIATELY *
Why do I feel like The Knife is gonna glance over my shoulder at a stern faced, suit wearing alligator and cut off the conversation to chase after him?
I LOVE PIKINIKU. It is one of my all time favorite games. I loved superliminal and a short hike too! :)
I think I'll actually be sad when we stop seeing these cardboard- puppet videos. They're really charming and unique.
Thanks to this video I discovered the masterpieces that are Later Alligator and Hypnospace Outlaw, and convinced me to play A Short Hike. Unironically want another video like this.
Superliminal would've been in one of the "games I discovered from this video and loved" list but sadly I already watched a whole playthrough of it several times and playing it myself would've lost its magic.
I’m not a gamer, but It’s so nice that I follow someone who loves indie games and I’ve seen him play most of these games. And yes, they are really good games.
I just saw your video on my recommended and oh my goodness I love the way you animate your video with physical drawings and cardboard!! So fresh in a youtube saturated with cutesie cartoon animated speakers.
