This compilation trims out all the individual intros/outros from my previous videos, adds in references I missed, and corrected as many mistakes as possible. I suspect I've missed a couple references still, or managed to miss a mistake when cleaning things up. I don't think I need to tell you that compiling a video of this size was no small task. And I hope that you have just as much fun watching it as you do playing the game itself!

[@djslender7810]

I think the character's name at approx. 56:43 might also be a reference to The Simpsons. There's a running gag in the show where Bart prank calls Moe and asks about a person who's name sounds like a funny phrase (i.e. Hugh Jass, Oliver Klozof, etc.). And "Al Coholic" has actually been used for the gag once.

The “Hey Buddy” from fleeing the complex has a origin. Puffballs United knew someone who knew someone who talked like that. So Puff was doing an imitation of the imitation of the guy who talked like that. This was explained in the developer commentary

[@alexnobody1]

2:52 "Open sesame" prooooobably isn't meant as a reference to anything, but it originates from One Thousand and One Nights. It's a magic phrase that opens a secret passageway.

This wouldn't mean anything in particular to the average Joe, but this a real life application used on the M18 Claymore mine.

and also, at 2:11:27, there is a very clear Papers Please or smth reference

[@sizablesplash7815]

The reason why the prison in ETP is named Red Mesa in the bios but West Mesa in the game is because Puffballs United made the bios for the collection after making everything else so he forgot what the name was. Puff talked about that in the developer’s commentary on his KZbin channel

[@BeyondBaito]

I think 3:52:40 is also a possible reference to Lethal League. A game where two players bat a ball around in a room with to attack each other with the ball getting faster and harder to hit. At some point hitting it while it goes at top speed will have a similar impact style as shown in the game.

[@jackys_handle]

That's been a trope before lethal league, there was a back and forth with ganondorf in ocarina of time, and I'm sure it has happened before.

[@YoloYester94]

What about “Door’s Stuck” at 53:00

[@nooneinparticular9704]

The Y-Type move from 5:30:05 is a reference to Pokemon Sun and Moon and their Z-moves. Henry even does a little dance beforehand similar to the Z-moves and the music during it sounds exactly like Pokemon battle music.

At around 4:35:13 the transition from the clip to the gameplay is awesome and I feel it should be appreciated more haha

[@crylune]

3:36:00 Yeah, sure, I guess, but this is SPECIFICALLY a reference to GTA San Andreas and how there's many wall clipping bugs that would let you go through the map, for example the gym in Ganton. Even the falling animation on Henry is EXACTLY the same as in the game. And the world above looks EXACTLY like it does here.

[@Kingboo4245]

2:32:07 Holy crisps, I didn’t actually think this would make it in. It’s an honor to be in a finding the references video, and thanks for including it! Awesome vid! Edit: can’t believe I’m writing this, but The Wall themes themselves are another missed reference. The main theme and Complex Waltz, or the Presumed Dead ending theme is a reference to Dmitri Shostakovich due to the music sounding quite similar with some elements taken directly from Shostakovich’s pieces like Waltz No.2, which aligns with the warden being named Dmitri. Anyway, have a great day!

[@mariomuncher44]

@2 Left Thumbs Imo, Henry's bio description in Mission is a reference to Bubsy's famous line *"What could possibly go wrong?"*

[@NyanSpore]

*breaking

5:25:04 Not really a reference but a fun fact for the entire jojo parody fail While the scene is entirely dubbed in "japanese", but it was done in a hilariously bad translation that does at least resemble what the subtitles say

[@The-ms2ub]

1:06:00 not only is there the criteria sound effect but there is also the sound that plays when a sentry is low hp that plays while the airship falls

[@SquidInkPizza]

1:27:10 You actually hit that right on the head there. During the victory segment of "The First Turnabout" where Larry is your client, Mia Fey mistakenly calls him Harry Buttz. And the snippet in the bio where they mention the clan making fun of his name is likely a spin on the saying "If Something Smells, It's Usually the Buttz" which the Ace Attorney series constantly reminds you was used during their Middle School years.

[@Rognik]

2:54 "Open sesame" is originally from the tale of Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves, as the password to get into their secret vault, but it has definitely been repeated so often that it's just in the cultural zeitgeist at this point.

[@willbunnell889]

Fun Fact: in the Build fail in Completing the Mission, the Steak that Henry drops is the only entity in all of Henry Stickmin to still be moving in the Fail Screen! You can see it clearly still rotating! It’s probably a glitch, but it’s still in the latest version of Completing the Mission to this day! 2:48:03

[@MrSkerpentine]

Samuel Mundy’s bio begins with him “not being a crazed assassin”, which is a direct reference to a line from Meet the Sniper 1:27:53 the Bob Ross reference here also works because Bob Ross was himself a former Air Force drill instructor! 1:29:09 Also during the same ItA scene where Jacque LeTouche is shown, you can see Toppat versions of Ryu and Ken (or maybe with the hat it’s meant to be Terry Bogard as a slant reference to Capcom vs SNK?) in the background!

[@BaileyChap]

1:50:35 The Engineer in Team Fortress 2 uses one of two PDAs to build and destroy buildings, and the Spy's disguise kit is known internally as a PDA, although none of these look anything like the PDAs in-game, so the reference is tangential at best. 2:24:36 The description for "Kredit to team" reads "Watching credit make me STRONG!", likely a reference to Heavy's line of "Sandvich makes me STRONG!" in TF22. 2:28:11 Sal Mann is possibly a reference to Silas Mann, also known as the Horseless Headless Horsemann, a Scream Fortress (Halloween) boss in TF2, though this is a bit of a stretch.

[@KopperNeoman]

If you're playing Engie properly, he doesn't need the PDAs. But that's not funny.

[@ziggy3140]

It might be the PDA from terraria. it does look like it but also i guess all pdas look like that.

[@zaiden_2006]

Sal Mann could also just be a reference to the fish

[@JeremyBaconThe1st]

Engineer gaming

[@RealQuarlie]

3:27:04 this could be a small reference to persona 5 all-out-attacks (especially when defeating an enemy), but it's probably more generalized with animes, where final strikes are shown like that..

[@beanfearing8499]

[@zwirrlukas]

It could also be a reference to Ridley's reveal trailer for Smash Bros Ultimate

[@henrynelson9301]

3:56:51 it’s actually a reference to an Adult Swim short called Too Many Cooks

[@kingkomiger6495]

1:05:18 Butterfingers.

[@jacobcox4565]

11:23 I think the two last ones should be swapped. "Be Efficient" has more to do with the "Shoot to Kill" part, and "Be Creative" has more to do with "Have a Plan to Kill Everyone You Meet."

[@IDontReallyWantAYoutubeHandle]

3:11:34 That's interesting, because how I interpreted that one is a pretty obscure history fact. Broca's Aphasia is a neurological condition where a person can understand language but has trouble producing it, and one of the first recorded instances of this was a French patient who could only speak the word "ton". Could also explain the time travelling portion of his character profile

[@danielhonetschlager8508]

There is one possibly really deep one I just realized. In 31:20 as henry goes for the kill with the machine gun next to the tank with the German cross, the gun fails him. Exactly this, and with a very similar machine gun happened to the person who tried assassinating Reinhard Heydrich in Prague, and the job had to be finished with a granade.

[@TheOnlyBloke]

32:03 pretty sure the "pirate-ninja" is a reference to The Martian by Andy Weir, where Mark Watney (the titular Martian) decides to name one kilowatt-hour per Martian day a "pirate-ninja", a term which has since been partially adopted by the Curiosity rover team at JPL following the book's release. E: also, at 4:44:04, the matchup of the 'turtle' nickname with the explosives expertise is probably a reference to asdfmovie's Mine Turtle gag.

[@thewolface2339]

During the painting portal fail you missed one small reference. The gun Jaques uses to kill Henry is another small reference to goldeneye's golden gun killing any enemy in one shot.

[@Celtic1020]

4:49:04 jumping off and saluting is a Return of the Jedi reference. When Luke is forced to walk the plank by Jabba's men he salutes to signal R2 and jumps off catching the board then jumps up and catches is lightsaber. The specifics don't match but the execution sells the connection.

[@joeybishopthe2720]

Fun fact: according to a developer commentary by Puff, Frosty and Freddy are canonically in the same building in FTC.

[@emilydye5609]

For that Mass Effect conversation wheel reference, that part of the wheel is typically the "Investigate" button which gives you dialogue options that don't advance the dialogue tree which is why it isn't a plot-advancing option. (I'm not sure if this was unclear or just an oversight but I felt like it deserves mentioning.)

[@Bradorks]

1:05:57 Around here you’re talking about the crit sound when the helicopter fires back after a missed missile. You missed the alarm sound that plays when your building is taking damage, or when your sentry is low on metal to keep firing, that could play when you’re the engineer class. Edit: I’ll note any missed references that I notice that you didn’t take note of.

[@StormEagleCH]

3:08:05 I actually played THSC before RE6, so when I saw Chris’ ending for the first time I literally said “Piers just pulled a Valiant Hero on me”

[@williambradley7824]

2:52:33 Toby Mack is the name of a popular singer & musician

[@exi_m7074]

I’d like to mention that there’s another judge in the Ace Attorney Series (not counting spin-offs) It’s literally the main one’s younger brother. They look almost the same, the younger brother just has a blonde beard.

[@oscarcacnio8418]

I thought it was just the main one, but younger.

[@SquidInkPizza]

This is of course if you only consider the original trilogy, as game 6 did have a new judge for Khura'in.

[@SquidInkPizza]

@@oscarcacnio8418 He appears again in the first day of trials in Bridge to the Turnabout, which takes place long after the judge's brother is introduced. Furthermore, the main judge comes back the next day and says point blank his younger brother covered the first day for him while he was sick.

[@LegoAssassin098]

The steam release was a triumph. I am very impressed with the insane quality of the games that I played as a kid. Though trying to click on every character was painful.

[@amaladiguna8873]

Small detail that I love from the Dual Tech one is that the explosion itself is exactly how Chrono Trigger shows quite a few explosive techs (e.g. Crono's Luminaire and Magus' dark bomb)

[@femkev.5245]

2:36:46 The hat may also be a reference to the Pixar short Presto, where a magician uses two magical interconnected hats for his act where he pulls a bunny out of one by sticking his hand through the other.

[@SnaksiXD]

3:50:23 I love how the fail screen background shows the door opened while Henry remains stuck face first in the air. Lag really does suck.

[@HorrorFan567]

I actually knew a lot of these references already! But there are a minority of which I didn't recognize at first! Thank you for pointing them out!

[@kicker19539]

I personally think that puff should’ve ended with one more MG reference with psycho mantis. “So you like Henry stickmin? You like puffball games don’t you? I see you are a fan of innersloth games.” Then the thank you note

[@yeshyyeshiam2520]

The Butterfingers reference ( 1:05:10 ) isn't a direct reference to Spiderman 2 but rather a reference to a KZbin Poop called "Spider-Man: Revenge Of The Mad Madman", and that's where the twirling Butterfinger animation comes from

[@Hergotzer]

3:52:28 I'm fairly sure that the movement/animation that happens as Henry deflects the bullet is a reference to "Lethal League", a game where you keep hitting a ball to deflect it at the enemy players dodgeball style. The brief slow-mo/pause as the impact between the hammer and the bullet happens is especially similar to when you get a perfect hit in Lethal League.

[@LaNiFN]

The pause on hitting the ball in those games is to give player time to react and it happens based on the speed but yes 100% this

[@Tman2bard]

@@LaNiFN yes, and it creates maybe the most hype moments in a match. They actually catch it, and everyone screams as the numbers go up. Best part of the game really

[@Tankirb]

I had the exact same thought

[@kymberlyngaming4032]

The "you were doing so well" at 2:21:37 is most likely a reference to Surgeon Simulator, in that game when you fail the text is fairly close to that scene.

[@eduard7065]

1:12:56 could be a referance to one piece, devil fruits, and luffys strechy arm

[@3dDoener]

2:53:39 fun fact about Hat Kid: her "smug dance" is actually a reference to animal crossing, where you can see a simmilar dance with the text "nobody's around to help", so yet again a reference to a reference!

[@GlitchyTSP]

The Gravity inverter at 5:04:24 I HEAVILY believe is a Mega Man reference. In Mega Man 5 you fight Gravity Man, who of course is able to Flip Gravity at will. The coloration of the Gravity inverter is what sells it to me, as they are almost a direct match to Gravity Man's own pinkish red + blue coloration.

[@Eric-----]

Possible missed reference: When Reginald retreats to his private escape pod and struggles against the vacuum of space due to a broken window, the way he curses Henry kind of reminds me of the way Doofenshmirtz says "CURSE YOU PERRY THE PLATYPUS!" in Phineas and Ferb. I know a lot about Phineas and Ferb, so maybe it's just me who thinks of this possible reference.

[@FlippingMiner]

The fact that this video is longer than the time I’ve spent in the game collecting all the achievements is a testament to how good it is lol

[@griffenmage]

So, what I caught. 0:56:35 Despite this being a metal tube, the trap is similar to an obscure little PSX title called Heart of Darkness, where the lightning trap was simply in an underground tunnel and you had to time your crossing. 5:11:43 "Big Boy" might be an effort not to name the "Mammoth Tank" from Red Alert (an RTS) and one of the strongest units in said game. Probably not what PB meant in either case, but you did ask so....

[@phantomchain3020]

4:05:13 My first thought was that the stretchy arm might be a reference to Monkey D. Luffy from One Piece, known for his stretching abilities and absolutely slinging people around like that. Don’t know if there is a specific moment from One Piece though.

[@Tommydiah_Kerman]

The bagel 💀 17:22

[@Moonypie5447]

RHM: I created you, and you created me. Ellie: Henry, why did you create that guy? Henry: I didn't. He's talking crazy.

[@drmusketeer2388]

I want to put in some more context to one of the choices. As a Mass Effect fan, 56:17 is one of my favorite references with the dialogue wheel. In the mass effect games, with the exception of reputation(paragon/renegade) dialogue choices, anything on the left side of the dialogue wheel is typically an insight piece of dialogue meant to further build the story. You can hit those conversation choices pretty much as much as you want without exiting the conversation for forcing an exit. They can be repeated if you didn’t listen the first time. So the fact that you can repeatedly make an animal noise is most likely a nod to that. ME3 even makes a joke about similar dialogue options when you repeat a question you’ve already asked, but “can’t remember which questions you’ve asked already” lol. Either way, the analysis of that reference is spot on!😊

[@Czechys]

2:42:56 I am almost certain that those jewels are a reference to the Fireboy & Watergirl flash games.

[@329link]

17:37 fun fact; that fact was something puffballs actually got wrong at the time, and he simply spun it as a joke afterwards. He says as much in a livestream he did about the series.

[@D3stroyer634]

2:39:29 I think that might be a Golden Spearton reference from Stick War:Legacy, but I might be wrong. The logo of the ability and that helmet seems very similar.

[@bronzebatman490]

Fun fact: when doing one of the endings in ItA, when running past the pod that Dave Panpa is in when doing the Pure Blooded Thief ending, on the map for the 4th room, it shows that Dave is there, but when you go into it, he isn't there. Not only that, but if you right click that pod, you can get his bio.

[@Ultranger]

The Earthbound and Final Fantasy-style fights in the chase route of Infiltrating the Airship and the Undertale-style fight in the RBH + PD route of Completing the Mission all share an interesting trait in that the “items” option is the correct one in all three.

[@thehonorableshadow9530]

Probably because that's Henry's specialty.

[@masela01]

3:36:08 the fail screen says "It's hard to move the pull off" instead of "It's hard to pull the move off"

[@NFueL]

2:40:51 THE *S U C C* MEME MAN MEME HOW COULD YOU NOT SEE!?

[@outlier9099]

4:43:18 Actually this could be a reference to RvB. The characters Tucker and Carolina share the same Lightish Blue armor color, but throughout the series there are multiple jokes about what is the correct name for their armor color

[@GamermanGreene29]

Idk how many other people have pointed this out already, but I think "Somewhere In The Southwest" in Chapter 2 is meant to be a Madness Combat reference, specifically the iconic line "Somewhere In Nevada." I looked it up, and Nevada is technically part of the Southwestern US. EDIT: I think the "Intruder On A Scooter" line is meant to be a reference to a meme format I've seen that always starts with "You've heard of Elf On A Shelf, now get ready for..." EDIT2: "Johnny Panzer" could be a layered joke referencing John Captain from the Tankmen series.

[@NothingKingKN]

3:52:52 That is also a pose and overall sound and timing referencing "Lethal League", which is a game where characters play dodgeball by striking a dodgeball with weapons until it reaches supersonic speeds.

[@leodsr3231]

YES!

[@Christiansback2023]

56:40 Fun Fact: Some people, (including me) thought that guy got fried, because they assumed the light heated up a little too much.

[@xyz3524]

Good job with the video! It has a good pace.

[@BenersantheBread]

4:21:20 is a JoJo reference. Specifically the famously low quality "Duwang" translation of Part 4, often used in memes for its incomprehensible nature. The original line is "Koichi really steals? No dignity." Edit: FFS.

[@marcelopaulo446]

The reward from finding all of the among us crewmates is called "everyone is here"wich must be a reference to the iconic everyone is here trailer from smash ultimate, showing all of the characters from previous games return.

[@DefenderOfThouSEX]

In infiltrating the air ship the "I don't need your help" might be a reference to TF2 where if a medic heals a demoman instead of saying "thanks" or "thank you" like the other classes demoman straight up says "I didn't need your help ya know"

[@leodsr3231]

3:00:52 I would have said for this one, it was maybe inspired by the (bad) movie The Predator from 2018 where in the end of the movie, one of the characters get his legs sliced up by the spaceship's shield and die by falling down

[@AbsoluteLambda]

that TEAMWORK poster in the office in the opacitor scene is probably a reference to Counter-Strike where in the map cs_office you can find posters around saying like "HEADSHOT, Those who can, do, those who can't, complain".

[@sansthelazybone]

The twins in 3:43:26 are a refrence to the 1979 movie about the viatnam war "Hair", because there last name is Bukowski, you can hear the general shout it after they start figthing, which i think is also a refrence to the song "Let the sun shine" the start of which is a general shouting the name Bukowski

I’m honestly in awe of how much continuity there is in these routes or for the characters Henry only ever earthbends, no other elements Only Ellie has used the force Henry has been practicing his captain Falcon moves And other stuff like only qte routes leading to more only qte routes or only the convict allies routes leading to wombo combo references

A possible idea for a future Henry Stickmin video that could compliment the "which ending is canon" video. Perhaps one that could be about theorizing what the epilogues would be for any of the endings or "what ifs" building off of them.

you know, something about watching a nearly 6 hour video to the end hits differently. Thank you for doing this video, the Henry Stickmin games were a big part of my childhood and I can appreciate them even better now that I know all these references

1:18:27 Mundy also reaches over his shoulder to his back, just like the special backstabbing animation, although this might be a stretch

4:04:14 I thought this was a reference to romeo's line in halo 3 odst after being given a sniper in preparation for a mission, "What the hell am I supposed to do with this inside a covenant ship?"

What an amazing watch took me 2 days and was fully worth it!!

2:42:35 The art pieces may not seem so recognizable at first, but one of the paintings that I did recognize was the waterfall. Since the waterfall can refer to the "Kerepakupai vená", better known as the "Angel Falls", known as the largest waterfall in the world located in the "Canaima" national park in the Bolívar State, in Venezuela. If you look for some images and compare them with the picture you will see the similarities.

2:07:18 So there’s actually a very slight error in this fail! In Advanced Wars, Tanks and their variations cannot fire on foot soldiers with shells, they have to use the mounted machine guns.

22:23 Fun fact: the Judge in the Ace Attorney games actually has a brother! He's only ever seen twice, both times in Trials & Tribulations (the third game of the series). The first time is in the flashback case, which was Mia Fey's and Miles Edgeworth's first trial, which...ended poorly. The second time is in the final case; due to some...shenanigans involving Phoenix falling from a burning bridge and getting a cold from the frigid river below, Miles Edgeworth has to sub in for him the next day. However, as Miles is a prosecutor, he and his adoptive sister arrange Franziska von Karma for a different judge to be used, otherwise the whole substitute thing wouldn't work - so they get the regular man's brother, who has a Canadian accent, oddly enough. The next court session has Phoenix recovered enough to return - just in time for the brother to get a cold of his own, and thus the regular Judge returns. Yeah, it's kinda weird. The brother's not been seen nor mentioned since, so...¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The downloaded car is a reference to an old anti-pirating ad that mentioned that ‘you wouldn’t download a car’ and that got a massive cackle out of me

[@Tankirb]

3:52:42 this may also be a reference to "lethal league" Henry even takes similar pose to characters in the game when they take a swing at the ball. The charge up sound before the bullet is launched back also sounds similar to the charge sound from lethal league when you hit the ball when its going at high speeds

[@zeospark9715]

1:00:06 This is actually another reference to Donkey Kong 64 where DK can transform into Rambi the Rhino who has the ability to ram through walls by running fast into them. It makes a lot of sense here since Henry was in the middle of running and was encountering walls. Plus, there was that DK64 reference not too far from there

[@StarlightNkyra]

Even if you turn in the toppats or work with the goverment, you end up in the complex. This implies that henry couldn't turn in his pardon because he couldn't properly pronounce library. I don't know what to do with this information, but it fits and is funny as hell.

[@LazloRTR]

3:52:38 I think this is also a reference to a game called Lethal League where you whack a softball (actually a hard metallic antigrav ball) to a supersonic speed, and after a certain speed every hit to the ball freezes you in place with more outlandish effects the faster the ball is
