Welcome to the Are You Aware Club how Are You Aware are ya? *note* Game is from the creator of Helltaker and this game may take place in the same universe Playlist here: tinyurl.com/mb3dft9f
Watching a game from Vanripper, with a soundtrack made by Mittsies, being played by ManlyBadassHero. Truly I live in the strangest timeline... where in a handful of ways, the strangeness can be in an epic sense for a change.
"Hey, what's up with that employee? The one who keeps kissing the ghosts. Why did we hire someone like that?" "Oh, we never hired that one. They just showed up to start kissing the ghosts, and we figured if they were going to be out there anyway we might as well get them to repair stuff while they're there."
Fun fact: so as you can tell a lot of Vanripper’s art/game style comes from his Polish heritage: “Awaria” means “accident” or “failure,” which is related to the goal of the game (fixing generators). Those pudding pies are likely Budyń, a traditional custard if I’m not mistaken
From the Budyń I have had, it's usually served in a glass/goblet like you might have jelly. The game mentions that it used a more pie-like design with a filling and a crust, which can be found in the gallery section.
6:05 okay the joke here is that in Poland people tend to joke about drinking denaturat (unfiltered alcohol with some chemicals in it) specifically because it's poisonous (and because the homeless tend to do that)
to be more precise during communism people would try to filter denaturat (it mostly made it colourless and didn't filterout the toxic stuff) to have strong alco for cheap
@jorgeluismendezrogers297 not realy, it's more like if you tried to get alco back from hand sanitizer but like not for hands but some industrial tier shit
It makes me so so happy that even tho the dev makes his games in English he doesn't refrain from using Polish words and names! It's not only a joy to see, but it's very entertaining to hear how ytbers from other countries pronounce them. Honestly, Manly did a great job with a lot of them, congrats! ^^
on the other hand, it's a shame that's it's only in English. Not every Pole is bilingual. Oh well, it took 4 days for Polish patch for helltaker to come out, so it might be the case here too.
You can always tell a certain dev or artist by the way they craft. Just like you can tell Manly is around when you feel something is empty, like his soul
You actually pronounce these very well. Anyways, here's the translation: Awaria = Crash or Failure (as in a machine) Usterka = defect or malfunction. It also has a diminutive sounding Zmora = Mare Nikita is a name as far as I know, her surname Naprava sounds exactly like naprawa = repair Yaga and Strzyga (Striga) are from the slavic folklore Jagoda (A name, but also means blueberry) Jęczyduch means moaning ghost?????? Or whining ghost, that sound a bit better
wow so the ghost-kisser is a defect/malfunction, but EVERYONE else dies? tell me who's the real defect, the one completing their job, or the dead ladies? this is blatant satire. do not @ me bro.
Love how I saw the thumbnail, recognized the art, and immediately ran the matrix for a minute until I figured out that oh it's Helltaker! Then I saw Manly had already put that in the title and I felt like an idiot-
@@brokenconstellation its literally spirit thats been contaminated on purpose, so that people dont drink it. Its only for cleaning purpose, as fuel etc. Its contaminated with chemicals that give it a revolting smell, taste, and induce vomit.
@@brokenconstellation In this instance, it's putting in additives to ethanol to purposely make it unpalatable, repulsive to the senses, and (as Vanripper stated in the gallery) super toxic to highly discourage drinking it recreationally. This stuff is meant to used as solvent or fuel. The second reason for denaturing ethanol is to allow it to be sold without the high taxation on consumable alcohol.
Yaga is absolutely untouchable due to containing many super dangerous ghosts, this, i believe, is the reason that she can get away with talking about stealing from the queen without consequences
“She has personally claimed to steal from me, the queen, but if we fire her the workers for sector B and C would need to work together just to do her work let alone theirs
*glad to hear it was a hard development. The fact that it came out means he learned a lot and we can expect other cool stuff from him in the future even if its not games.
Hard development and struggles like that are vital to experience at least once when making games. It is a beneficial experience, especially if you manage to push through and finish the game despite that.
I respect Vanripper fighting against the desire to put everyone in suits, even as I agree it's an amazing choice, for the sake of some variety. The ghosts and tunnel runners all look great, their art continues to impress me. Same goes for Manly's skills, I can't imagine how long I'd take to beat Hard Mode given my skills with bullet hells. Whatever Vanripper does next, I'll be there for it. On the off-chance they see this comment, I do want to mention I agree with Manly: those noir designs are excellent, and I would love to see them again.
The hard mode is not that bad. You don't need skills with bullet hell games, just some good reflexes in general or at least learning the moves and playing it safe rather than rushing it. The whole game on hard difficulty can be done in under 4 hours.
@@ySpirit1 Took me 2 hours of playtime on steam to do normal, and then hard. But I'm really good at these kinda games. You 100% need skills with bullet hells. I cannot imagine most of my friends beating hard mode. And you can't "play safe and not rush it" when the gens blow up in 20 seconds.
i like the idea that yaga dies from, ironically, liver failure. but because it was an artificial liver, she comes back as a scraper ghost like striga. not like she'd remember the irony in that, but i like the idea that for all their arguing, they still end up having a lot in common and are able to relate with eachother best
Props to you for doing the Striga levels in hard mode! Having done it myself, you are absolutely correct when you say that it is BRUTAL. It's a 'blink, and you're dead' type situation in those levels.
Note, there's actually a cheat code that lets you unlock the gallery without having to do hard mode. (In the credits screen, input the same directions that gets you the Beezlebub ending in Helltaker)
_Kiss secured!_ I knew i recognized the art style from the thumbnail! Glad to see them make a new game! The devs did an amazing job Groovy sound track as usual. Guess we are collecting ghosts. Though it kinda gives me a danny phantom vibe. Love Yagas design, she looks so tired and its funny shes drinking the stuff with the Skull and cross bones on it. I love that Usterka at one point is just staring at Zmoras butt. Its cute that their relationship mimicked Yaga and strigas relationship. Love the pudding pie bit.
So fun fact about the extracting alcohol from generator fuel with a loaf of bread. That was actually a thing American PT Boat crews would do back in WW2 with the fuel from their torpedos, which they called Torpedo Juice, including the boat captained by one future president JFK.
Man I remembered watching your Helltaker video a couple years ago, its how I first found you channel Four years later and theres a new game from Vanripper; like nothing ever changed
I think it's obvious but i'll remind you of it anyway, the developer is polish, the ingredients in the tunnel runner cooking show are in polish, Zmora and Usterka are also Polish words, and Awaria is too. Someone mentioned strzyga is also a Polish word, i found that to be correct, it is a kind of demon born with two souls. But also, Baba Yaga is not short for berry, it's a character from Slavic folklore and well-known in Poland.
Just like Denaturat. Gosh I love when Pole devs games are popular abroad. A similar thing happened with SCP Endurance from Eleven although not on such scale as this.
33:24 The "honey bee" foundation for this game's idea makes me wonder if this entire company (or even world) is inhabited solely by women. Also part of me thinks that this game was made just to promote the pudding recipe.
@@bagfruit123 Every 10 years a male finds a rift in the space time continuity and finds himself there, and is then used for procreation until the inevitable heart attack.
For those who are wondering Denaturat is Polish for Methylated Alcohol which is intentionally made toxic to avoid being used for recreational purposes and is instead used in things such as cleaning supplies or hand sanitizers
46:11 its always so fking cool when fictional couples pose like that when one of the two its a ghost, its like a stand but more romantically charged Also, that old woman its helltaker's older sister and you cant change my mind
honestly considering the circumstances of the world, i was inclined to think this takes place in the future, and she's a younger relative or descendant of his
@@dandyspacedandy she'd be part demon if that were the case, even if diluted, she'd still have some of the features ( be that diluted white hair or a streak, and the presence of horns)
When I heard that Vanripper made a new game I had to check it out. Was not dissapointed. Loved every second of it! Currently struggling with hardcore run xD
I'll be honest I respect the hell outta how Wraithtaker and Pup have close enough objectives. I know she's called Baba, but she's the Wraithtaker because well, "Harem full of Ghost Girls" Can't think of her as anything else
Watching a game from Vanripper, with a soundtrack made by Mittsies, being played by ManlyBadassHero. Truly I live in the strangest timeline... where in a handful of ways, the strangeness can be in an epic sense for a change.
@@sheerbeauty I've been watching them for a good while, one of them for 15 years in a different context. It's interesting to see two creators you discovered independently get together and make something that gets so popular, a let's player you've also been watching for years will showcase it.
I love the attention to detail with how every character, or mixture thereof, had different start animation and a different death animation. Also I do agree that releasing this game as a whole package is better than piecemeal especially with how the gameplay itself kinda relies on momentum. A couple lore points as well, specifically to that one point about how only obnoxious people come back as ghosts. Imagine if that was a well known factor in their world. Now imagine Ula hearing about the death of your friend in the maintenance tunnels and volunteering for the job, having complete confidence that Zmora was gonna come back as a ghost because she knows first hand how obnoxious she was lol. Anyways those pudding pies look really good.
Dev did a great job with polish names reflecting personalities of girls but "Jagoda Jęczyduch" genuinely made me chuckle. Jagoda(fairly common polish name) translates to "berry". Jęczyduch is a combination of words "jęk"- groan,whine(asociated with old people whinning) and "duch"-ghost.
I was hoping you would play this since Helltaker blew up in popularity because of your help. I'm glad I found this game the other day, it deserves the views and love because Vanrippers art is really great.
Knew it was coming soon, yet another unpredictable, inexplicable rizz game- this time with electrician ghosts! Wish it was longer- I think that’s always what I want with Vanripper games, solely for more character interaction.
@@The_Bird_Bird_Harder im sure they will, they did say they didn't the explore nikita's character that much, so i wouldn't be surprised of a few comics coming along
Man I love games that have basic 2d movement for most of the game, then introduce a dash mechanic near the end that makes you feel like an untouchable god.
i kinda like how the dev basically uses their art and knowledge of game development to sell us their recipies for simple bakery goods with apparently otherworldly good taste since they are proven to be utilized to seduce angels demons and now also ghosts also in case another best girl voting comes up as it did happen with helltaker designwise i liked the cutwires the most but personalitywise yaga was just funny with just how sick and annoyed of the daily routine she seems ^-^
I really hope the game creator expands more lore and gameplay in Awaria. I really enjoyed the concept of having to survive in haunted tunnels while fixing up busted generators.
As much as Wraithtaker would have been awesome too, I personally am glad Vanripper saw the blossoming light and gave us the ghost yuri harem we didn't... well I DID know we needed it, but anyway, good job!
I absolutely love his style and tehe stories are a lot of fun. Thanks for playing it, I'd never have been able to do so. Still going to buy it to support the dev when I get paid.
@@Mob720 Yeah, I typed that up before realizing. I need to buy this and Helltaker's book and OST. I bought all of Mittie's excellent music, but now I need to add more to the collection. :)
tripping and some short circuit maybe, but i would say she got a pretty good thing from death, she basically got a sister by dying and being split in two
@buttermati0ns649 Either way that's not the best way to go out I can't even imagine what that feels like and I imagine a lot of things. Clean crew MUST have gotten a raise after her demise
@buttermati0ns649 I mean she can teleport so it probably wouldn't be that bad but on some scale, she would probably have trauma from that happening to her regardless. Also we don't even know how Nikta died. But since she's a smelter. I assume she got burned alive. Probably fell into some hot liquid or along those lines
You have to admit this guy most likely spent a solid 3 days doing this almost non-stop just for our amusement he's a real one for going so far as to even do voice lines that are accurate for the appearance of each character as well
This morning, I watched Vanrippers video talking about their new game, Awaria. I go to work, I come home, check my phone. *Manly posts his playthrough of Awaria* "OH my God he's mad!"
In case you were wondering what the many Polish words and references mean in their names and on some items: Awaria -> Malfunction Ula Usterka -> Ula is a polish name, Usterka means "Flaw/Fault" like in an "Engine Failure" type of way. 'Yaga' Jagoda Jęczyduch -> Her name literally translates to "Berry Ghostwail", although "Jagoda" is just a name in Poland. Zofia Zmora -> Zmora means something between "nightmare" and "bane". Zofia is just a name in Poland. Nikita Naprava -> Naprava is from the word "Naprawa" and means "Repair" Sylvia Striga (Strzyga) -> 'Strzyga' is basically a female Vampire from Polish folklore. But think more of a monster than the sparkling, sexy vampires you know from movies. Denaturat -> It's basically "contaminated alcohol". It's used usually when you need to decontaminate something, dissolve paints, etc. Can be used as fuel. It's contaminated to allow selling it way cheaper since it "cannot be drank", however most alcoholics would purchase and drink it anyway - suffering horrible health problems and even dying from it. It is NOT meant for consumption and was highly toxic. Nowadays cause you cannot stop alcoholics from drinking this, they stopped adding extremely deadly contaminates, but it's NOT something you should drink. Ever.
I feel as though the dev felt a bit unsatisfied about the effort he has put in the game. Like pointing out things he had issues with himself but while playing the game myself I didnt have any problems with most of the design choices. I really liked this game too. I hope he has been getting tons of support recently for a great job he has done.
@@anti-spiral159 i do wonder the logic behind cutwire have of her from being cut in half resulting in two cutwires, like if their two parts of the old cutwires personality or its just simply a cut a worm in half kinda situation
Ok, I hope I am not the only one but I want more of this! I am willing to wait for the developer! Also I like to think that the human runner was/is the girlfriends of the ghost girls. Sad but like they all went to work there but ‘failed’ and in the end she willingly went to work there to see/be with them again.
Helltaker taught me about pancakes with fillings and apple pies, now this is teaching me about pudding pies. Vanripper has some real cool designs even the unused one are pretty good looking.
@@doommaker4000 Is that what they are called in Polish? I thought muffins were just one thing, even all the way through with no fillings. Do Babeczki usually come with fillings?
I genuinely clicked off to go buy this game and saw it was FREE. So i figured i should buy Helltaker... AND ITS ALSO FREE. God damn. How do i throw money at this guy to get more of this style in the world.
Its a cool fact that the *boss* of the main character also has her own harem of ghost who are powerful as well. And also the MC was supposed to look similar like the Helltaker, call the ghoultaker but was scrapped and turn to the character we know now.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Had no idea this game existed. Decided to beat it before I came back to watch the video. Almost managed the whole game on hard mode. Couldn't manage the last boss.
The creator has got a talent for making regular words in Polish sound like cute anime girl names: Usterka, Ula, Awaria, Zmora. Same thing was in Helltaker. Also I remembered that denaturate is like an alcohol based anti-septic solution which apparently had to be painted purple in Slavic countries cause people would mistake them for spirit. I wonder if that was the reason they're ghosts (spirits). Similarly, the pudding cakes are a popular bakery item in a lot of countries in Central, Southern and Eastern Europe. Awesome.
So the ghosts are other *girl* employees, and your girl can see and touch them, so the repairs are types of common repairs related to how they died on the job.

Pretty close to the Russian word too, then!
Awaria dont mean accident, it means malfunction or breakdown

Helltaker was to promote pancakes and Awara is same, but for the pudding
I just love that Tunnel girl actually went and brought a stepladder to her rematch with smelter ghost because she was too short to kiss her. 😆
For those who are wondering Denaturat is Polish for Methylated Alcohol which is intentionally made toxic to avoid being used for recreational purposes and is instead used in things such as cleaning supplies or hand sanitizers
46:11 its always so fking cool when fictional couples pose like that when one of the two its a ghost, its like a stand but more romantically charged
Also, that old woman its helltaker's older sister and you cant change my mind
honestly considering the circumstances of the world, i was inclined to think this takes place in the future, and she's a younger relative or descendant of his
To me this just reminds me of jojo fan art and they go pretty hard like that.
I mean those are in the same universe. They have helltaker's cooking book.
In earlier development as you can see in artbook she was Wraithtaker who's just Helltaker in diff suit
@@dandyspacedandy she'd be part demon if that were the case, even if diluted, she'd still have some of the features ( be that diluted white hair or a streak, and the presence of horns)
Helltaker is honestly my favourite video from you. I've replayed it a lot. Thank you for this, Manly!!
ofc you say that
and now things have come full circle
Mine is death palette but helltaker is close
@@LarusoHK death palette is a good game tbf
6:00 denaturat is denaturated alcohol, it's very highly alcoholic and very harmful, but it's a popular drink here in Poland
Damn so she was doing all that drunk af???
damn thats wild
didnt they Say it was very toxic tho?
yall just built diferent or something?
Weakest polish liver
It's not a "popular" drink lmao
Doing repairs with ghosts trying to kill you for a decade, I'd drink it too lol
This dev has such awesome taste and his artstyle is great.
Thank you Vanripper for the Yuri Ghost Game, I enjoyed dodging the danmaku just like in Touhou.
When I heard that Vanripper made a new game I had to check it out.
Was not dissapointed. Loved every second of it! Currently struggling with hardcore run xD

Is there something wrong with girl kisser? :P

You know Helltaker is how I found Manly’s channel? Now it’s my go-to for horror 😭
Helltaker might have been what got me started too lol
As an artist I can confirm that the pixel art and digital illustrations are of professional quality!
Good job!!

Also personal opinion mc is sexy
I'll be honest
I respect the hell outta how Wraithtaker and Pup have close enough objectives. I know she's called Baba, but she's the Wraithtaker because well, "Harem full of Ghost Girls"
Can't think of her as anything else
This dev plus Manly playing is **chef kiss**
Listen...ya'll don't understand how much I NEED fanart of Nikita. Good lord that woman is tall.
Fellow tall mommy enjoyer, I see you.
If Helltakers popularity is anything to go by, you will get your fanart friend
Can't wait toooo :>
give it... 10 hours just so it accumulates a little bit
Hell yeah ! Tall mommy for the W !
Watching a game from Vanripper, with a soundtrack made by Mittsies, being played by ManlyBadassHero. Truly I live in the strangest timeline... where in a handful of ways, the strangeness can be in an epic sense for a change.
Are they all your favorites?
@@sheerbeauty I've been watching them for a good while, one of them for 15 years in a different context. It's interesting to see two creators you discovered independently get together and make something that gets so popular, a let's player you've also been watching for years will showcase it.
With everything that's been going on in the world for a while?
Maybe this is the moment the timeline has began to heal?
I love the attention to detail with how every character, or mixture thereof, had different start animation and a different death animation. Also I do agree that releasing this game as a whole package is better than piecemeal especially with how the gameplay itself kinda relies on momentum.
A couple lore points as well, specifically to that one point about how only obnoxious people come back as ghosts. Imagine if that was a well known factor in their world. Now imagine Ula hearing about the death of your friend in the maintenance tunnels and volunteering for the job, having complete confidence that Zmora was gonna come back as a ghost because she knows first hand how obnoxious she was lol.
Anyways those pudding pies look really good.
Dev did a great job with polish names reflecting personalities of girls but "Jagoda Jęczyduch" genuinely made me chuckle. Jagoda(fairly common polish name) translates to "berry". Jęczyduch is a combination of words "jęk"- groan,whine(asociated with old people whinning) and "duch"-ghost.
Instead of Ghost whisperer she has run out of fucks to give and become a Ghost whiner.
I was hoping you would play this since Helltaker blew up in popularity because of your help. I'm glad I found this game the other day, it deserves the views and love because Vanrippers art is really great.
Knew it was coming soon, yet another unpredictable, inexplicable rizz game- this time with electrician ghosts!
Wish it was longer- I think that’s always what I want with Vanripper games, solely for more character interaction.
We can hopefully expect comics at least!
@@The_Bird_Bird_Harder im sure they will, they did say they didn't the explore nikita's character that much, so i wouldn't be surprised of a few comics coming along
Hard agree ,this game was more game heavy than dialog heavy, wish we also get more stages in the future for awaria
Helltaker dev, and Manly plays it first thing, this must be heaven
*Winks*(Please make Heaventaker soon)
Haven't really thought about that, it would be quite nice to see that, and the prospect of a half-angel half-demon girl gets me going
@Tee11one they already did Ghosts and Demons, Angels and Vampires and Werewolves are just the obvious next step
And Orc ladies oh my my

Boss: hey how have you been dealing with the ghosts so easily?
Player: seduction
Boss: … what?

I love the amount of easter eggs in Vanripper's games. Denaturat made me chuckle, and your question about poison symbol on it even more.
I was bed rotting depressed after finishing the Storm the Swan video when this upload came at the exact perfect moment
Storm the Swan?

Man I love games that have basic 2d movement for most of the game, then introduce a dash mechanic near the end that makes you feel like an untouchable god.
i kinda like how the dev basically uses their art and knowledge of game development to sell us their recipies for simple bakery goods with apparently otherworldly good taste since they are proven to be utilized to seduce angels demons and now also ghosts
also in case another best girl voting comes up as it did happen with helltaker
designwise i liked the cutwires the most but personalitywise yaga was just funny with just how sick and annoyed of the daily routine she seems ^-^
I really hope the game creator expands more lore and gameplay in Awaria. I really enjoyed the concept of having to survive in haunted tunnels while fixing up busted generators.
As much as Wraithtaker would have been awesome too, I personally am glad Vanripper saw the blossoming light and gave us the ghost yuri harem we didn't... well I DID know we needed it, but anyway, good job!
Screw U, Wraithtaker was better.
@@i_love_capitalism denial is the first step to enlightenment
I absolutely love his style and tehe stories are a lot of fun.
Thanks for playing it, I'd never have been able to do so. Still going to buy it to support the dev when I get paid.
The game is free on steam!
@@Mob720 Yeah, I typed that up before realizing.
I need to buy this and Helltaker's book and OST. I bought all of Mittie's excellent music, but now I need to add more to the collection. :)
29:30 I see where Ula's looking... can't ignore all that CAKE
lmao
Ula was so adorable, also DAMN SPLIT IN HALF BY AUTOMATIC DOORS!? What did Cutwire do to deserve that? ☠️☠️☠️
tripping and some short circuit maybe, but i would say she got a pretty good thing from death, she basically got a sister by dying and being split in two
@buttermati0ns649 Either way that's not the best way to go out I can't even imagine what that feels like and I imagine a lot of things. Clean crew MUST have gotten a raise after her demise
@@docileyoke thank god she doesn't have memories of that as a ghost, that'd make using any door a ptsd nightmare
@buttermati0ns649 I mean she can teleport so it probably wouldn't be that bad but on some scale, she would probably have trauma from that happening to her regardless. Also we don't even know how Nikta died. But since she's a smelter. I assume she got burned alive. Probably fell into some hot liquid or along those lines
You have to admit this guy most likely spent a solid 3 days doing this almost non-stop just for our amusement he's a real one for going so far as to even do voice lines that are accurate for the appearance of each character as well
This morning, I watched Vanrippers video talking about their new game, Awaria. I go to work, I come home, check my phone.
*Manly posts his playthrough of Awaria*
"OH my God he's mad!"
As a Pole I confirm: I am blown away by this game! And denaturat got me rollin' 😂
Sometimes i forget since most horror games dont require it, but after playing hard mode myself - manly is really skilled!
Those years of playing pixelated horror games finally came in clutch!
In case you were wondering what the many Polish words and references mean in their names and on some items:
Awaria -> Malfunction
Ula Usterka -> Ula is a polish name, Usterka means "Flaw/Fault" like in an "Engine Failure" type of way.
'Yaga' Jagoda Jęczyduch -> Her name literally translates to "Berry Ghostwail", although "Jagoda" is just a name in Poland.
Zofia Zmora -> Zmora means something between "nightmare" and "bane". Zofia is just a name in Poland.
Nikita Naprava -> Naprava is from the word "Naprawa" and means "Repair"
Sylvia Striga (Strzyga) -> 'Strzyga' is basically a female Vampire from Polish folklore. But think more of a monster than the sparkling, sexy vampires you know from movies.
Denaturat -> It's basically "contaminated alcohol". It's used usually when you need to decontaminate something, dissolve paints, etc. Can be used as fuel. It's contaminated to allow selling it way cheaper since it "cannot be drank", however most alcoholics would purchase and drink it anyway - suffering horrible health problems and even dying from it. It is NOT meant for consumption and was highly toxic. Nowadays cause you cannot stop alcoholics from drinking this, they stopped adding extremely deadly contaminates, but it's NOT something you should drink. Ever.
The story telling, as minimal as it is is wonderful. The amount of world building done in impressive.
agreed, i hope we'll see more awaria, maybe some more fun comics and stuff
I wonder if the dev made this one just so people would make more art for him to like? He can't keep getting away with it!
You should see Vanripper's video about his new gamę then
HELL YES I WAS WAITING FOR YOU TO COVER THIS GAME THE MOMENT I SAW IT WAS RELEASED
I'd still love to see that Noir style idea manifest somehow. It sounds so cool. Maybe a future cyberpunk noir with robot girls?
or maybe a zombie noir
I feel as though the dev felt a bit unsatisfied about the effort he has put in the game. Like pointing out things he had issues with himself but while playing the game myself I didnt have any problems with most of the design choices. I really liked this game too. I hope he has been getting tons of support recently for a great job he has done.
A Super fun game. Your video reminded me that I installed it, and I quickly went and beat the game now time to watch you beat it
'I can fix her' the game.
You mean the generator, right?.
...
...right?...
MANLY THE GOAT
We have evolved from smartly dressed demon waifus to coolly dressed ghost engineer waifus, we are in the prime timeline.
Naw, we're in a shit timeline, this is just a canon event.
"Free at las-"
13:27 Manly just downright turned into one of us during that situation 😂🇵🇭
LMAO
Saw the title and immendiately 100 percented the game. Now I can watch the video.
How could TH-cam hold this video from me for a minute!
After watching the video pretty much, I really wish to see how it would have been with the OG designs, really looked awesome
@@anti-spiral159 i do wonder the logic behind cutwire have of her from being cut in half resulting in two cutwires, like if their two parts of the old cutwires personality or its just simply a cut a worm in half kinda situation
Was waiting for you to upload a vid on this game, absolutely love this guys games!
Ok, I hope I am not the only one but I want more of this! I am willing to wait for the developer! Also I like to think that the human runner was/is the girlfriends of the ghost girls. Sad but like they all went to work there but ‘failed’ and in the end she willingly went to work there to see/be with them again.
You like to think that? It's all explained plainly in the gallery at the end
@@coranbaker6401I wrote that before I saw the end
This gameplay is incredibly impressive. You're very talented. Possibly badass, one might say.
I remember when this guy barely talked sometimes.
We've came along way👍
At first I thought this was a cute game, but as it went on...this is a game you have to take seriously.
it turns to running around to gens, to basically juggling everything, cutwire has got me more times than i'll admit
manly just really been getting into the voice acting scene lately
Unturned pfp out in the wild gang
Helltaker taught me about pancakes with fillings and apple pies, now this is teaching me about pudding pies. Vanripper has some real cool designs even the unused one are pretty good looking.
i can see vanripper really likes putting baked goods in his games, awesome!
No way. Aren't Babeczki just Muffins?
@@doommaker4000 Is that what they are called in Polish? I thought muffins were just one thing, even all the way through with no fillings. Do Babeczki usually come with fillings?
I genuinely clicked off to go buy this game and saw it was FREE. So i figured i should buy Helltaker... AND ITS ALSO FREE.
God damn. How do i throw money at this guy to get more of this style in the world.
Its a cool fact that the *boss* of the main character also has her own harem of ghost who are powerful as well. And also the MC was supposed to look similar like the Helltaker, call the ghoultaker but was scrapped and turn to the character we know now.
Okay “cook you properly” definitely is for shadowing of something
i wonder how nikita died exactly, maybe from a kitchen fire
First we had Demon babes in Suits and now we have Ghost babes in Skin tight suits? I LOVE IT!
Bonus points with the lack of men ruining the purity.
@@theploot8230 why would men ruin the "purity"
@FinnDanger-e3v Because they will only get in the way of true love 😠
@@theploot8230 why would men get in the way of true love?
Lowkey, I didn't know the Helltaker Dev made another game, that's really nice ^_^
agreed
Ghosts and Girls Kissing, it seems Mr vanripper has gained some new preferences
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Had no idea this game existed. Decided to beat it before I came back to watch the video. Almost managed the whole game on hard mode. Couldn't manage the last boss.
The creator has got a talent for making regular words in Polish sound like cute anime girl names: Usterka, Ula, Awaria, Zmora. Same thing was in Helltaker. Also I remembered that denaturate is like an alcohol based anti-septic solution which apparently had to be painted purple in Slavic countries cause people would mistake them for spirit. I wonder if that was the reason they're ghosts (spirits). Similarly, the pudding cakes are a popular bakery item in a lot of countries in Central, Southern and Eastern Europe. Awesome.
It's sold without the alcohol tax so it's purple and contaminated to make it unusable for consumption.
Wait, is this a yuri game? FUCK YES
HELL YEAH!
GHOST YURI WITH MURDEROUS SEASONING
PEAK
literally JUMPED FOR JOY WHEN I REALIZED
YEEEEEWAAAA i suddenly got happier when i saw it was yuri
Praise be for ghost yuri
love you mbh, youre pretty awesomesauce
Awesomesauce is truly the only descriptor for such a peak tuber
Now THIS is a game with vision! Remarkable stuff with this one Manly!
"why you started kissing the ghosts?"
"THEY LOOKED CUTE ALRIGHT"
I KNEW I RECOGNIZED THAT ART STYLE, LETS GOOOO
"You like kissing ghosts don't you? You're a ghostkisser"
The sound he makes when he's cornered in a tight situation really sounds like he's having fun.
He didn't return with the milk, he brought the whole cow.
he brought A WHOLE FARM OF THEM!
So the ghosts are other *girl* employees, and your girl can see and touch them, so the repairs are types of common repairs related to how they died on the job.
