Didn't mention it in the video, but I really did enjoy the brown section a good amount. I'm nervous about this one last section I have to tackle. How hard do you think it will be?

[@fammax1282]

1st reply lets go

[@TuckerHolt]

It will probably be super hard like I haven’t played the game or watched the video yet but yeah like really really hard. Like I don’t know if you’ll be able to solve it man. It’s going to be so so so hard, if I’m right. I think it’s going to be a hard challenge man.

[@sangchoo1201]

nononono section 0 is first...... noooo (and 4-9 when)

[@Lexinathan]

Sangchoo1201 never lol, but Actually maybe at the end when I’m guessing he needs to do every puzzle to complete it

[@fedyaemmet1530]

Explain how you comment before your video even comes out

[@entropic-decay]

fun fact with the - - ? puzzle: the line you had to draw was a variation on a fractal called the Hilbert Curve, which is a space-filling curve.

[@csours]

I was trying to remember the name of it - all I could think of was Penrose

[@raph2550]

I am unable to explain why, but as soon as I understood the goal of that level, I knew it would work

[@mambodog5322]

I managed to do it with a slightly different variation of that as well, so this level definitely likes it

[@juggernaut93]

I actually tried that curve knowing about the Hilber Curve fact, but then I wasn't able to fit it in some of the other puzzles and I gave up too quickly...

[@TheyAlsoCallMeVadobe]

All i saw was H

[@csours]

It was really amazing to see you re-invent the space-filling curve at 28:00

[@AMan-xz7tx]

Amogus curve

[@PotofGlue]

That’s a stretch, it’s literally just the letter H

[@whee2390]

Well, yes, but it’s also a space-filling curve

[@kohwenxu]

@@PotofGlue It’s Hilbert’s Curve.

[@jort93z]

@@kohwenxu Moore curve specifically. its a variant of the hilbert curve.

[@TabbyVee]

29:19 i know why you kept calling it a curve, because somewhere deep in your mind you know about Hilbert's Curve, which is one the best "space filling curves" (which your final line was very similar to) and was probably what that puzzle was testing you on, space filling curves that can expand to infinity.

[@arealpotato7014]

this game is so simple yet so well executed that it can be complicated. Imagine they brought over patterns from other levels in 0_0

[@Rev_Erser]

Is this foreshadowing

[@deadcactus]

It would be too much foreshadowing to not be one

@@JohnSmith-zs1bf it says right in the title, it's called understand

[@amojc3573]

The calendar + clock puzzle was definitely hilarious. Another proof of how creative the creators have gotten!

[@jakelichtfuss9590]

In --5, the lines were supposed to snugly fit on the shape you made. The hint is a partial outline of the solution. It's like --6 with only one piece

[@adamklein8933]

I think you just need to make a shape with an outline that contains the clue directions.

[@bennetteidsness3275]

Level --5-5 was the one that made this one really click for me!

[@cgytrus]

i think it's like you need to think of the dashes as tiles, and the start of the line can count as any tile

[@greatsageclok-roo9013]

@@adamklein8933 Yeah, that's the one I saw.

[@cyberneticsquid]

He never got it on --5 but immediately got it on --6 ;-;

[@anthonycannet1305]

--5-7 the rule is that the dashes in the picture represent the edges around the spaces your line fills. Almost like an incomplete border around your shape. Which is why you can sometimes add extra in certain parts because it isn't a perfect boundary, just part of it.

[@dubiouscloud5115]

My thought was actually that each line or pair of lines in the small box represented how the line moved through each of the small boxes in the big box. Extra lines were allowed at the tips, and the end of a line could count as any type of curve. Edit: I also feel like --7 could have a similar thing happening, but with the ability to add extra lines in the middle

[@davidleobrent]

Yep noticed it. It outlines what you need to draw.

[@fabiandarkness2090]

29:25 Tyler: "Time for me to address the white elephant in the room" Me: "4 - 9 !!??!?!?" (I didn't notice he said WHITE elephant at the time) Tyler: "This white section down here" Me: "Oh.. I didn't even notice that was solved"

[@fabiandarkness2090]

@Dyanosis ahh you're right, i completely missed that somehow

[@grimreaper1542]

Once you're done with this game, you should go and find a video or a website with all the rules to see if you actually got them right, or just got lucky with some of them.

[@sunbleachedangel]

That would be funny

[@bodenharris1484]

I played the -? on the 31st of may. I spent over an hour trying different things before giving in and watching this video only to realize it’s impossible today because the grid is 5x6 so there are only 30 squares.

[@MaidenOfAir]

Well that feels unfair

[@shadowflame4785]

😂

[@sodiboo]

for the time level it'd be nice if they included a clock in the game with the correct answer just from the start, put a clock there, let the players be confused "why the fuck is the game telling me the time", give viewers a sense of how long the youtuber was stuck, and eventually on the time level, it's useful but yeah maybe it shouldn't have had seconds, that's kinda dumb

[@toast3111]

--5 wasn't doing boxes, it was doing lines. It took seeing the last solution for it to click in my head

[@Akita23]

i just finished binge watching the series of this last night, having this uploaded makes me really excited Thank you

[@lilyflowa666]

so happy this game is back again!!! i love seeing you play this, one of my favorite games on the channel

[@kevinlel]

brown section might just be the best world in the game i love it so much

[@lakumetiz283]

I am having a hard day today. Thank you, Tyler, for consistent daily puzzle videos; you are my savior!😄

[@ferdinandpurczeld234]

In dash-5, the dash symbols did not refer to the lines you drew, but to the edge of the squares you touched.

[@Exilum]

I really liked the datetime puzzle personally. The game being based on making people understand, if it failed to subvert expectations, it would be a bit sad.

[@JordanBl]

--5 seemed to be the same rule as --6, but it only had one cell depicting the edges of your shape rather than putting together a bunch. So two horizontal lines would be two cells with nothing above them. Two horizontal lines then a vertical would be two horizontal cells with nothing above or to the right.

[@megadeth116]

9:10 In this level you need to make a shape that can be fit into the dashes and touch all the dashes (similarly to what you've done in 14:30)

[@zircondeez]

I thought the thumbnail was loss for a second, I had to do a double take

[@kenet7877]

Loving this series!

[@nicholasfuller340]

OMFG I loved the clock, that was beautiful :)

[@brbdogking7643]

9:25 you can technically always fit the object you create into the dashed object. The only weird part is the 3 dashed lines, unless it’s that you have to touch every space but then that falls apart at the next puzzle.

[@Efretpkk]

Wish this game was in Android, playing it on the phone will be a treat

[@vystorm]

Agreed

[@HaxTheCharizard]

unfortunately, some of the puzzles wouldn't work on mobile

THAT CLOCK PUZZLE THOUGH DAMN

[@a.t.fa.t.f7031]

When you realise the puzzle is a clock: 0-o

[@iridium_nl]

I think the difference between --8 and --9 was that in 8 you could only ever go one space in each direction, whereas in 9 you could go any amount as long as it was the right direction.

[@MarsIris87]

the one you were confused why what you did worked, it worked by making a smaller version of that shape

[@owlman145]

Chapter 0 is a nightmare, at least it was for me

[@DisKorruptd]

9:10 you probably could have ignored the spot under the directions too, I think the dotted lines in that sequence weren't the line, but the borders of the tiles the line is on

[@MohamedAli-oy6kg]

--8 had to do with the boundary of the highlighted region. However, the direction method you came up with was surprisingly isomorphic to the solution. The puzzle makers definitely didn't think about that!

[@officialbubbletanks3383]

me always staring at 4-9 like

[@e.g.g.jr.9848]

9:20 the dashes were the outline of the shape and if you crossed them with your line it failed.

[@SuperDZ555]

Tyler still has yet to complete 4-9

[@mambodog5322]

-8 and -9 are definitely my least favourite puzzles in the game, it just took me looking at a spreadsheet of the grid sizes trying to find any pattern at all.

[@RyanLevy1116]

Holy hypersonic puzzle solving

[@RealPanzer999]

9:25ish It would seem to be scaling, so you can make a smaller version of the shape. The straight line counts as you just scaled down so low that you can't see the bend anymore.

[@mindaugasmariager1001]

Holy shit! Aliendsrock youre so fking smart, like when you solve the puzzle, i do understand how you got there, but when youre solving the each puzzles in just a few secs from just looking at it, i have no clue on how you got it SOOO fast. Well done, hope i can learn something from you

[@columbus8myhw]

Some of it is hidden edits. Focus on the face cam, if it jumps he edited out his thinking time

[@haroldasgaming6088]

5th Level was all about joints if you make a 3line bend it counts as down (down right) right completing the ruleset so as long you make the right shape you are Allright

[@forkliftcertifieddummy]

--5 was about the empty space to the inside of the dashes i think (similar to --7 but with the line instead)

[@z3_gaming526]

The dashes outline the necessary squares.

[@forkliftcertifieddummy]

I guess a better way to say it would be "The dashes form a boundary around the line"

[@ReneePrower]

I'm sure many others have posted about it, but on --5 the hints are tracing the outline of the boxes you path through, rather than the path of your line! They're a partial perimeter of the filled shape your line defines.

[@brandvarm4338]

i watched the entire video while having zero clue what what going on. love it

[@A_Weird_Angel]

--5 Awnsers: Dashes act as edges of boxes is my guess

[@robinlindgren6429]

spoilers for actual solutions to things tyler didn't understand or didn't show in this video: spoiler spoiler spoiler --5: the rule is that the symbol indicates a partial outline of the space covered by the line. this outline can be anywhere, including at the edge of the map. the rule is very similar to how tyler realizes --6-5 works, except there the shapes must combine to become the entire outline. --9 vs --8: the difference is that in --8 you have to make exactly one step before turning the next time, in --9 you can take any number of steps. ' '-1: start at circle end at square and cover every empty space. ' '-2: start at empty end at empty pass through all circles but no squares. ' '-3: start at cicrle end at square, pass through exactly 3 empty squares. ' '-7: you must cover the star symbols in the right order, imagine that on each star there is instead a number that is equal to the number of empty spaces adjacent to that star; you must take the stars in ascending order based on those numbers. (the outside of the map does not count as empty spaces) ' '-8: cover a number of empty spaces exactly equal to the smallest common multiple of the height and width of the grid. (so if the height is 4 and the width is 6, the smallest number that can be evenly divided by either (i.e is a common multiple) is 12.) ' '-9: cover a number of empty spaces exactly equal to the digital sum of the number of spaces in the grid. (i.e if there are 48 spaces in the grid, the solution is to cover 4+8=12 spaces)

[@kevinlel]

YOOOOOO first person i've seen do the same solution as i did for --? (the H-shaped line) such a cool puzzle tbh

[@davidpanic]

It's called "Hilbert's curve" and it's a space filling curve

[@fafo635]

9:26 is i think the oulined edge of the sahpe that matters in the dashes

[@dusaprukiyathan1613]

I think --8 was about making the smallest possible version of the shape, whereas --9 was about making any version of the shape. Also, WOW nil-? was rude.

[@Drag0nD3st0y3rD]

Pretty sure for the part with the lines and how you could get rid of certain dashes was it counting the turns as one horizontal and one vertical. That's pretty much my only guess on that lol. Like the curves are one horizontal then in the middle of the square it becomes vertical so it counts it as one of both. Edit: the square at the start of the line also just counts as one of these curves or just a normal line depending on what is needed.

--5 requires you to draw a line that, if you were to draw a line surrounding your line, it would contain the given path.

9:00 the rule to htis, is that you can fit the shaw you jsut drew inside the dashed lines. The lines do not represent the squares anymore, they represent the outline

[@gawain855]

Half of the white section I completely brute forced because I had no idea what the completely blank puzzles meant. Some of them I did really like though. -10 I really enjoyed figuring out. The brown section I also super enjoyed. I agree with your impression that the white section made no sense in general though. If anyone knows the patterns for the blank puzzles, please tell me cause I did some math, and it made no sense to me. Also, I completely brute forced the ? level cause yeah, again, no clue. I hate it now that I know the answer. It's stupid, but explains why it kept failing for me. What made no sense at all to me, was that as I was brute forcing the last puzzle in the -? section, sometimes it made the second to last one (minutes) become wrong, to which the answer was just to increase it by one. SO not only did you need to match the second, everything had to be right at the same time, i.e., you have 60 seconds to solve the last one. At least, that's what I think. Anyway, complaining time is over now. Excited to see what you think of the last world. Definitely a great masterpiece that this game has been building up to. Enjoy it!
