the way these games were my ENTIRE childhood even though i didn’t understand english or japanese and never could get a good ending because i didn’t know what i was doing LOL
When my younger self was playing this for hours before, I didn't know that there was an ending or even a goal. I was just so mesmerised by the art and what they're gonna do
On Nakayama, the creator of the GROW series, has been fighting a heart disease since 2018. While he got a transplant, he still hasn't fully recovered and is asking for donations, so it's great to rise awareness towards it!
Sad fact, the creator of the grow games from what I've known has been having a lot of health issues so best of wishes to the creator of the grow game's creator.
Yeah, I believe he has been diagnosed with brain cancer and from his last update, his condition isn't getting better. Let us pray for this man who made our childhoods great
@@giulioturina2772 Heart failure, he had a heart transplant and had a long road to recovery. Coupled with family troubles and the phase-out of Flash, he's got quite a bit on his plate
@@HandleToBeDetermined thank you for correcting me, it's truly a shame that it happened to such a great person. I really hope he gets better even if it's unlikely
I had a case study on Grow Island. My task was to analyze and write a High Level Document on it. Grow Island is a "commercial" of sorts to encourage people to learn science, engineering and those kind of fields. I don't remember for which institute. The game is "designed" in such a way that combines all fields to work together in order to develop civilization and progress and human beings. This is roughly the essence of the game. I had this case study about 6 years ago...
wait fr these games are the reason why I was interested in science and humanities Like science wouldn't make sense if you didn't do it in a humanized way And humanities vise versa wouldn't make sense if you don't apply some science and logic to it If I haven't encountered these games my life would have less of a reason rn
The GROW series is legitimately my favorite flash games ever. I loved them so much as a kid, they were mesmerizing and beautiful to look at, and the process of figuring out the correct order to place stuff in made me feel so smart. I dearly hope their creator will manage to cure their health issues!!
I loved the grow series back in the day. It was always fun trying different orders out seeing what kind of weird combination would happen. Then using trial and error to try and find the how to get max level on everything
you have absolutely no idea how MANY years i've been desperately searching to find this game only to have this video randomly pop up on my feed out of the blue. i thought it was a fever dream. from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU.
i thought this game was just a feverdream of mine, i remember playing this specific game a lot back when i was younger. I also just remembered this existing up until a few weeks ago, thank you for making me remember.
I'm so glad you speed ran these games. I played these a long time ago and forgot what they were called. I remember going through all the different endings and getting stuck on getting the best endings
Ive been searching for this game for over a decade. I knew so little about it but i loved it as a kid. I actually just shed a tear finally having found it again.
The nostalgia is real with this one. I remember rage quitting alot on this game. My 9yo self couldn't figure out what I'm supposed to do and why I keep stopping progress.
Oh my God, dude, thank you so much! I loved this series SO MUCH when I was a kid, and I recently really wanted to play it again, but I completely forgot what it was called. This is amazing.
God this hit me with a wave of nostalgia I didn't know I needed 😭 my dad and I used to spend hours (more like an hour but at the time it felt longer) playing these kindsa games together and I miss that 🥺
Eyezmaze always created such beautiful games. Simple elegant design that could evolve into really complex interactions. Love that it's getting some good recognition !
I remember coming across the first game as a kid and having absolutely no idea what I was doing because, once again, I was a kid. Still, this was a pretty amazing game.
oh man i remember skipping a middle school dance to stay at home and play grow cube & grow island… definitely the better choice & the theme songs are burned into my brain in the best way 🤩
I had extreme dejavu while watching the first one. I feel like I remembered something from ages ago but I still can't really recall anything specific. I remember building a road, making a river, having lava trails. Guess I played something similar but I am also sure I didn't play any of these games. Feels so weird to remember something that I've completely forgotten
i loved the grow games as a kid!! cube, island, tower, valley, rpg... i remember looking up walkthroughs for them on here even cuz i sucked at getting the correct order lol. i never figured out what you were supposed to do in grow rpg after maxing everything out though and i'm kicking myself now seeing that you were literally just supposed to move after all that haha
I played this game as a kid, and then I could never find it again. I did not remember the name and couldn't think of how to describe it. You have made my day.
I remmebe replaying a lot of flash games when I was younger. Soke I have vivid memories of and some I remember. Decision medieval, grow island, zombotron and many many more. This one was special. Please donate to the creator that has made our childhoods so much fun. Its for us to to make sure his future years are fun.
I LOVED those games as a child!!! I played all of them for hours until I managed to get it right, I tried it 100 times over and over again. I'm so nostalgic right now, thank you!!😍
I PLAYED THIS WHEN I WAS A KID i literally played through this briefly and i couldn't find this game after going to bed and waking up the next day, i searched hard and couldn't find it, i'm so definitely gonna play this when i get the time for the nostalgia, it was one of those things which stay in your mind too
Oh wow bc of u i have rememberes the name of this magnificent game that i have always thought about. You have now earned a subscriber. I will be forever thankful for bringing this game back into my life
I remember my older cousin and I would play this game, and he taught me that you could look up the correct order to get the utopia. It blew my mind - good times!
I used to LOVE GROW GAMES DUDE they were so well made and the animation was so smooth, and they felt different from flash games I was playing at the time! Glad someone else knows they exist! Please play the egg growing one! If not for a Speedrun, just for a quick bit of fun!
I found it on a sketchy Russian website having no idea what’s going on. But I was mesmerized by this art. Thank you for unlocking this childhood memory.
oh man, the nostalgia are kicking in, it's really fun series of games. i remember there're more games which have similar idea (can't tell it's knockoff or same company, the memories are fuzzy, and don't understand English nor Japanese back then).

Same, despite the fact that i started English along my main language in school

I have never encountered this game in English and always blew up, I legitimately thought it was only available in Japanese's

That was the same with me
I used to just guess what I was doing

Wife: 'takes care of the kids and everthing in the house on her own'
Eazy: "i do everything"
i remember playing the grow games back on kongregate.
i could NEVER figure out which order im supposed to do things so i'd fail every single time
Kongregate is dead now, back then it rivaled Newgrounds and Armorgames
same
I always relied on Walkthroughs
@@ExtremeMan10 Used to be my safe haven

I remember searching for a whole year for this game because I could never remember. I loved these type of games as a kid. Thank you for the nostalgia
I always used to play old classic games, especially
In my childhood, good times.
This unlocked a memory I didn't know I had. It's been ages since I played this game and didn't remember it until now.
Nostalgia has been unlocked. Omg I remember playing these so long ago on eyezmaze

So glad they're getting some well deserved attention
Oh my God, dude, thank you so much! I loved this series SO MUCH when I was a kid, and I recently really wanted to play it again, but I completely forgot what it was called. This is amazing.
i never thought i’d see this game again. it’s always been in the back of my mind and i use to play it so much when i was like 7 and 8.
this game is the most nostalgic I ever played, and I have fun toying around with the options with the game.
THANK YOU FOR FINDING THIS MAN, I've been looking for this for a year or two now and you did God's work
Grow Maze was my favorite and I feel like there could be more of a speedrun of it
Ah a person of culture
God this hit me with a wave of nostalgia I didn't know I needed 😭 my dad and I used to spend hours (more like an hour but at the time it felt longer) playing these kindsa games together and I miss that 🥺
These were literally my favorite flash games from back in the day so this is a huge nostalgia trip, thanks for playing them
Eyezmaze always created such beautiful games. Simple elegant design that could evolve into really complex interactions. Love that it's getting some good recognition !
Holy crap I played this game so much as a kid!! A scary amount actually considering how small the game is
I remember coming across the first game as a kid and having absolutely no idea what I was doing because, once again, I was a kid.
Still, this was a pretty amazing game.
All the GROW series are usually always a delight to play and are always delightful.
I hope you speedrun my personal favorite GROW Park
I used to play Grow Island with my mom, after school. We'd both sit down and try and figure everything out, it was great :)
oh man i remember skipping a middle school dance to stay at home and play grow cube & grow island… definitely the better choice
& the theme songs are burned into my brain in the best way 🤩
Especially when the dev reused them a lot 🤣
1:10, King Kai ahh Car
I used to love playing these grow games!
nostalgic and satisfying because i get to see the correct solutions. good tempo and narration. overall good job!
These were the games I lived for as a kid. I always hope for more of them still.
I've been (passively) looking for this game again for months, i love you for this
Omg I was searching for this game for years and now here you are, finally found it, it has so much memories from my childhood ❤️
I had extreme dejavu while watching the first one. I feel like I remembered something from ages ago but I still can't really recall anything specific. I remember building a road, making a river, having lava trails. Guess I played something similar but I am also sure I didn't play any of these games.

This brings so many happy memories. I remember playing Grow Island a lot back in the day. Thanks for the nostalgia ❤
omg i loved the grow games so much my favorite is the one where you make a city with a massive underground area
Grow valley was definitely my fav'
I liked the alternative ending.
I loved these games so much when I was younger.
The concept was so simple yet it kept amazing me how it felt like the game had unlimited endings.
Oh god the nostalgia of this game servers, I miss these games? Albeit I didn’t even know rpg existed
i loved the grow games as a kid!! cube, island, tower, valley, rpg... i remember looking up walkthroughs for them on here even cuz i sucked at getting the correct order lol. i never figured out what you were supposed to do in grow rpg after maxing everything out though and i'm kicking myself now seeing that you were literally just supposed to move after all that haha
You can't just brain me with years old nostalgia like that
I played this game as a kid, and then I could never find it again. I did not remember the name and couldn't think of how to describe it. You have made my day.
The Grow series has to be the most interesting and beautiful flash game I’ve seen.

Hi
Grow... Big Nostalgia there. Would love to see the rest of the series speedruned!
…I’m not sure this counts as a speedrun. It’s pressing 10 buttons.
I guess it technically is.
yeah there's no skips or time involved... just spam clicking until you can in the right order
This brings back memories. I've been recommended a lot of nostalgia from this channel recently and I love it.
