"when a good thing happen, I buy a game to celebrate when a bad thing happen, I buy a game to treat myself and when nothing happens, I still buy a game anyway" Finally found my mantra. Thank you Eurothug
Its wild the PS1 era was "eh just release the most unhinged stuff possible as a retail game" and it having an audience to the point where physical copies still exist to this day!
33:11 My God. That is both a hilarious and brilliant idea. Imagine a high budget, and other wise serious, horror game taking a good laugh at the player by using their pfp as part of a jumpscare
There’s a game stuck on the PS3 (but also in Xbox /w BC), called Child of Eden. It is a rail shooter inspired by the lore of the virtual band Genki Rockets, both created by the same who made Rez and Tetris Effect. It has the late 00’s aesthetic, fused with a feeling of being on an acid trip, while listening remixes of the band in question.
hi! I regularly watch ur videos on nebula and I absolutely adore all of your videos but I had to make a pit stop over here on youtube just so I could tell you how much I appreciated your shoe puns for the first game. They do not go unappreciated and neither does ur hard work on making these videos. much love
Personally I liked this format of "this is a collection of weird games" and it made it easier for me to want to click and watch it than if it was just one specific creepy or weird game
Games like these really help to show off how creative video games can be, and how little we've actually scratched the surface of what interactive media can be. Now, with that statement, I also want to caviate and state that when it comes to pure usability, gamification makes things worse pretty much every time. I can't tell you how frustrating it would be to live in a world where digital music libraries must be browsed in a literal 3D warehouse. But, when it comes to creative endeavors and art, video games can do and be so much more than what we tend to see in the main stream. I wish sometimes we could go back to the 90s and the early years of 3D technology and stop the naysayers to keep people's creativity alive and well so that we could keep getting such weird media.
euro, i just have to say: your videos - your voice, the way you speak, the content you create - are so soothing and bring such peace to me. very often i put your videos before going to bed to keep me calm ♥
The boot screen on the shoe game, you say? All kidding aside, one thing I greatly wish is that the weirder or more unusual Japanese games were ported over here. So many strange and wonderful games that I know I would have loved.
That whole "Game-Buying Guilt" thing mentioned at the start is literally the whole reason I'm writing video scripts now. I HAVE TOO MANY GAMES AND NO WAY TO JUSTIFY IT, SOS
Very excited to find out you’ve joined the nebula folks! Hope it continues to grow Also shout out to you being so fun to experience as a brand new person on Supereyepatchwolf’s charity stream leading me to you on your channel!
The second game felt like it was a few steps away from being directed by Hirohiko Araki. 27:39, is that the demo where that dark shadow turns a flying beagle to stone? Because that imagery nudged a wrinkle that hasn't budged in like 15 years. Also, I don't know if you've done anything with Drowned God yet, but in terms of strange and weird games, that one gets very "Ancient Aliens" from what I recall. Might be worth a look, especially since IIRC it's getting a re-release.
If you haven't I bet you'd like browsing the wild games in Dreams for PS4/5, there are a lot of Backrooms and Mario remakes, but games like Opposite Day and Haus of Bevis are right up your alley if you like the museum-esque games
Dogstation makes me think of monster rancher 1 & 2 (for ps1 and 2) which i think you'd like a lot! much slower paced but you can still breed and collect monsters for rare lil guys. big recommend they available on steam and switch. 3&4 are ps2 and there is also a ds one :)
Can you recommend any other virtual museum/gallery games? I adore Radiohead's Kid A Mnesia Exhibition and would love to see more games like this, walking sims or light adventure games that focus on visuals and music.
I like buying random imports on Saturn that have cyberpunk crap in them too. Have you ever tried Cyberdoll? I really dig that one. How about Despiria on dreamcast?
...I never realized that Datura was meant to demo PS Move, despite OWNING a Move, I just did it with the controller instead Still keep Linger in Shadow installed just for the heck of it and listening to the XMB track
you might enjoy the games made by osamu sato if you have not played them already. his most famous is lsd dream emulator, but he has some other smaller really surreal titles as well ! all around incredible mixed media artist
For weird games I reccommend Golden Light, low-poly roguelite first-person survival/psychological horror with mimics, eerie sound design and meat, a lot of meat. The setting is simple: You go to a nice picnic with your beloved partner, only for some eldritch monster to take her captive to a hole below the ground. So as a devoted and caring person, you gotta go rescue her. Except the descent to the underground is an exercise in anxiety. Immediate disclaimer; it's NOT a game for kids nor just anyone, as among many other themes it explores, you can literally self-harm with the press of a button, and you'd do this because some weapons can give you status bonuses when applied on oneself. That is absolutely NOT how reality works! silly af. So yes, super weird game. Like Cruelty Squad weird. It doesn't pull its punches, you be advised now. So the underground is a dangerous place, akin to a jungle, but also quite surreal, as you'll stumble upon procedural mazes of scrambled furniture in labyrinthian manner, literal liminal spaces filled with gold, weapons and other items, mostly magical ones. You'll also have to collect keys to open the exit elevator to proceed down through each level. And, as I said before, there are mimics. Mimics are the game NPCs. Some are aggressive, some instead can ask you to do little errands for them, or offer trade opportunities, all in exchange mostly for that sweet gold. Killing mimics drops gold too, but in doing so you'd start to keep an eye for the moral system; because killing makes everybody enraged with you, and as you kill more they'll slowly start to hunt you through each level. If you kill too many and become too hated, eventually no mimic is pacific anymore. So there's that incentive to play it cool, to try surviving instead of fighting your way around. But there's also boss levels. So yes, it's a roguelite in almost every way. There is a story, told in fragments, in a way which I also felt really well done, in that it keeps in line, and even enhances the overall mysterious tone the game's going for. It also has some goofy humor for comedic relief.
*watches intro* ...was that DATURA on the ps3 >_> These games are bananas. Or shoelaces. Whichever works. I'm gonna put these in my infinite backlog 👴 *Edit* it was! What a bizarre fucking game
15:26 is the gift shop really your favourite place in a museum? Were you one of those weirdo kids who wanted to become sales & marketing executives when they grew up? 🤔
@@eurothug4000 the rabbit hole gets deeper. I guess that explains how the Vatican state’s tourist board handled the marketing crisis caused by the resignation of pope Benedict XVI. Vendors had huge stocks of Joey ”Bennie XVI” Ratzinger merch and were rightfullt concerned how a new pope would impact the sales of said merch. Are you saying that as a sales & marketing executive magpie you advised the Vatican state to just put B-dawg XVI merch on sale next to the new pope because magpies would purchase them even if human tourists wouldn’t? Are you willing to confirm this to Reuters’ journalists? This could blow the lid off the whole museum gift shop trinket racket.
@@eurothug4000is that your official answer? I’ve watched your Siren videos several times and it supports my initial question of being a sales & marketing executive. Sales: you bought the games and adjecent material. Marketing: you’re marketing the games through your videos. Executive: you’re the owner of your channel and have full editorial say what gets posted. Still sticking to the human magpie story? 🤨
@@eurothug4000 unfortunately journalists at Reuters and Deutsche Welle can read. All those MySpace and LiveJournal archived posts. We’re looking at a five episodes Netflix documentary.

How long is this offer good for? I get paid in a few weeks and would love to take advantage of it and help support at the same time.
"when a good thing happen, I buy a game to celebrate
when a bad thing happen, I buy a game to treat myself
and when nothing happens, I still buy a game anyway"
Finally found my mantra. Thank you Eurothug
buy two games in times of peace
and two in a time of war
buy two games before you buy two games
and then you buy two more
That quote is the most relatable thing I've heard this month
Its wild the PS1 era was "eh just release the most unhinged stuff possible as a retail game" and it having an audience to the point where physical copies still exist to this day!
I'm not sure that was a "panda", I'm pretty sure that was my sleep paralysis demon.
A lot of appreciation for “sole knowledge” pun, but I’m here to represent my GOAT “boot screen” 01:15
Eurothug video? Oddball games? For dinner?
We are eating GOOD today
33:11 My God. That is both a hilarious and brilliant idea. Imagine a high budget, and other wise serious, horror game taking a good laugh at the player by using their pfp as part of a jumpscare
If you like weird virtual museums based on real bands, I strongly recommend Radiohead's Kid A/Mnesia exhibit! The vibes are ✨️ vibing ✨️
Video treats are my meal, and Eurothug is my personal chef 👩🍳

I burst out laughing at that PSN profile pic jumpscare 😂
Thanks for this weird trip! Surreal and fantastic.
Gonna tell people I’m releasing my demons now every time I use the restroom
I badly want a translated Dogstation in modern hardware.
I badly want a dog translation device.

I dont know if its popular or not, but you should talk about super galdelic jour, is a party game with a really bizarre aesthetic
YESSS that’s literally one of the other ones I have my eye on!!!
eurothug COOKING up another BANGER !!
7:24 Poor truck-kun just wanted to send your furry friend to an epic adventure in another world
I like that they called first person view "subjective view".
Also your PSN profile picture is beautiful. I appreciate you the way you are.

3:49 That dog is so cool
Terry's Turbo Trip is pretty funny, but Wuppo from the same dev is legit one of my favorite games, it's super good.

was busy yesterday and missed so now that i free i beyond hyped to wind down and watch this thank ya as always
Very excited to find out you’ve joined the nebula folks!
Hope it continues to grow
Also shout out to you being so fun to experience as a brand new person on Supereyepatchwolf’s charity stream leading me to you on your channel!
15:38 i got that album when i went to tokyo because i loved the artwork so much! really cool to learn some of the context behind the art!!
Heck yeah. Always a cool day with a Eurothug vid
I love learning about these experimental games. Thank you so much, Eurothug♥♥♥
Space MOSA sounds amazing!
Esp the gift shop at the end
What a fun anthology-style video! Maybe a horror themed one now that halloween is coming up would be something cool to work on? My two cents. Cheers!

i guess they couldn't get any further. lol
1:08 dont think i didnt see what you did there, that sneaky shoe pun
I truly adore the ps1 and ps2 era for the out of box thinking and creativity of the the design
Always wanted to play Kowloon, and I'm excited for Slitterhead as well!
These games are fascinating! Thanks for another great video!
I haven't watched yet but I know it's going to be a banger, liked.
Damn, didn't know about Dogstation till now. Time to grab a copy! Thanks for the video, Thug 🙏🏻
shrimp grinding
If you haven't I bet you'd like browsing the wild games in Dreams for PS4/5, there are a lot of Backrooms and Mario remakes, but games like Opposite Day and Haus of Bevis are right up your alley if you like the museum-esque games
That first game is a shoe in for odd ball games indeed :P 🥁
Weird forest playground game is based on the deliriant trip from ingesting a plant called Datura
THANKS FOR THE FOOD MMMMMMM
Theres a great world in second life recreating kowloons gate as entire explorable city
You should play Valle Verde, wildest PS1 game yet 👺
Please more! I love weird games
A game where you play as a shoe sounds like a headline for a new broken Ubisoft game. But no it's literally just the game!
Already relatable in the first 10 seconds.
Interesting games! Shoutout to the Shenmue 2 Man Mo Temple library music track :)
I feel like Space Mosa’s intro wouldn’t make any sense to me even if I knew Japanese.
This video is my new muse

I can't say for sure BUT I vaguely remember there being some virtual museum games on itch.io :)
Have the Zeno Clash games , The Eternal Cylinder and perhaps even Cookie Cutter been on your radar?
I like buying random imports on Saturn that have cyberpunk crap in them too. Have you ever tried Cyberdoll? I really dig that one. How about Despiria on dreamcast?
I have Despiria but I haven't heard of Cyberdoll! I'll have to check it out!
years without hearing the name datura thanks I want to try that one I played the demo years ago but I didnt have the head for that one
7:39 _eurothug's English intensifies_
played datura back then got jumpscared by my own pic the ps eye took lmao
...I never realized that Datura was meant to demo PS Move, despite OWNING a Move, I just did it with the controller instead
Still keep Linger in Shadow installed just for the heck of it and listening to the XMB track

Space Mosa looks insane wtf
Oh these are some real weird ones

Are you going to play silent hill 2 remake?
Yep I’m subscribing!
We have very similar purchasing habits
I want to see more
A great bunch of interesting Games :D
34:28 that killed me
Backlog Solidarity. I have like 500 in mine.
I'm sitting at over 1000 because of humble bundle and humble monthly
Interesting stuff
i wonder how high the devs of some of these games were when brainstorming ideas
Dang that’s a lot of money spent
Eurothuggers rise up
very very gud 👍
I suggest Shadow Man Remastered
*watches intro*
...was that DATURA on the ps3 >_>
These games are bananas. Or shoelaces. Whichever works.
