Just know, everything Renn our favorite little boy in the whole world does, his cameraman is doing backwards and in high heels. Truly amazing.

[@RadioZonde]

big fan of devil daggers. fun fact, devil daggers came out of nowhere in 2016 and a ton of people who were waiting for Doom 2016 jumped on Devil Daggers for months before Doom came out because they wanted to kill demons earlier. It became a bit of a meme in the more obscure gaming circles (as in the dev iamqqqqqqq is top shelf kino obscure please play their stuff if you have the time) and it elevated to an absurd level when Doom Eternal came out. To the point where the meme "I guess we'll play Doom Eternal until Devil Daggers 2 comes out" was a thing. cue sept 19th 2022 and understandably everyone lost their shit. I am glad you explained this out as yea.... its a tough game to explain to someone. I think you are the only one that actually does the game justice in expressing the reasons why this game is a masterwork in design.

[@crunchy7200]

oooh so this is devil daggers 2, I knew this looked familiar

[@EpsilDelta197]

huge shout outs to iamqqqqqqq. classic game is so baller

[@juliusfucik4011]

That Temu ad was an absolute gem 😂😂

[@IndicatedGoodLife]

Chinese really don't understand sarcasm. Its great.

[@C-ih8dw]

i came here for this has it been cut?!

[@ultraheaven8968]

A review on steam says " This game would kill an 1800s farmer" sums up this game

[@SkyRunner21]

My week improves 100% when I see Renn release a video... I swear I'm addicted to his humor and jokes...

[@maxstinkyfoot7366]

I honestly keep forgetting you're a smaller KZbinr, these videos are so meticulously organized and are always a joy to watch. I hope you get more acknowledgement in the future and maybe one day, become my favorite BIG boy in the whole wide world.

[@MinusZaxis]

I am #60 on the leaderboard, and I got to agree that this game is incredibly well designed. The flaws of the game only really start showing when you pass the 350 score treshold, and most players will never even get close to it. You did a great job at explaining the game mechanics, and you actually bothered to get DEICIDE for the review, which is something that almost none of the reviewers ever do. You clearly put the time into this game, and it shows both in the review and the gameplay you used!

[@hrash0836]

What are the flaws in your opinion?

[@MinusZaxis]

@@hrash0836 visibility is shit, spawn rng is annoying (fuck double spawner and double spider), scuttler movement, inconsistency with homing and more

[@odonata9766]

The jump in quality from devil daggers (which is still an incredibly good game) is stunning. Like I see the core of DD all over this game but they have taken the entire concept into such a dramatically different level, incredibly impressive, hope to have to funds to buy it at some point.

[@Cheesedragon117]

Hey bro you still waiting for the money to buy this game? I can gift it to you.

[@GregHeffleyGaming]

These videos never get old. There’s just something about your sense of humour, editing, scripts and pacing that is simply unmatched compared to every other channel I watch on this platform.

[@jordanscott4543]

The structure as well. It’s not just a review sitting in a room or office chair.

[@hawkevick9184]

Only gaymer that goes outside

[@DjTrustNo.1]

he puts the O in Original. Since years this is my main draw to this wonderful channel. Also Rens humor is just peak nuanced!

[@gloomba1642]

I'm at 13 on the leaderboard, I do agree this game is very well made and is quite fun to play. the boss is some of the best boss design I've seen and I love everything about this game, until I have to score chase

[@tankuo586]

i beg to differ

[@gloomba1642]

​@tankuo586 well you score chase man that's why it sucks so much

[@jordanp4987]

The boss designs are truly awesome. The empty stage is beyond distinctive. I'd remember this for years on that alone. Hell, I have.

[@wazzpqazzza]

Ayo it's devil daggers 2 I've met the art director a few times while he was working on this and he was talking about how interesting it was that fps' haven't worked out good method for seperating the peripheral vision from the centre of vision and their different roles and abilities and how the team came up an ingenious solution to that. I'm gonna play this game when I have the chance.

[@asdf5702]

the 360 degree fov is incredibly intuitive and genius. I can’t believe I’ve never seen a game before or after this do it

[@destrierofdark_]

@@asdf5702there is a mod for the original quake that does it; this is called fisheye projection, and the mod is thus called fisheyequake. you can set the fov as far up as you like. yes, even to 1000, which is several circles around yourself in your own periphery

[@samuelwhite0700]

Hyper demon is one of the best games I've ever played. Hands were shaking once I got a successful run

[@Kroke_Monster]

I always forget that your a smaller youtuber, genuinely for the last two odd-years ive been watching yours vids alongside other utubers who u can consider large, and I never noticed a difference in quality or anything that would make you stand out, yeh sure the 'production' style is different with the ol' greenscreen in stores, but thats part of the charm and style which I digg, differentiates from majority game analysis which have no irl video interaction. Keep up the great work, to me your as established as all the big boys, let time show you what we see.

[@radiant9230]

"and you can't get covid from china" is probably the single funniest line I've ever heard from an adread

[@mmvva174]

Really cool to see someone learned so much about the game mechanics before posting a review and even getting a deicide 5:40 note on what you said about gemdashes here, its actually not exactly which direction you're looking but its what direction you are inputting relative to the direction you are looking, so you could dash into a spawner crystal and look down while holding S instead of W and you will still go upwards, this can result in some strange, stylish shit My best score is around 370 and ive been playing on and off for like 6 months now and its been so cool seeing new tech develop, top players will post a clip and be like "what if i can do this, maybe its a bit more optimal" then like 10 minutes later they just fucking do it since all the tech are natural evolutions of the basic mechanics the game feeds you Even i have done some cool slightly unique shit and im at best a low high level player this game is so cool

[@FreshCurly]

HOW ARE YOU STILLL THIS SMALL AS A CREATOR BRO. YOURE PRODUCTION IS INSANE AND YOUR REVIEWS ARE SO ENTERTAINING. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

[@PlerbArmy]

Great video Renn! I saw a brief clip of this game on some other video and knew I needed to see an indepth description of this wonderful game that is absolutely not for me lol. You did an mazing job of describing this job not only in a very comprehensive and in my experience easy to follow way. But also in a way that I feel probably got across the feel of learning it on your own through playing game like, like how the developers intended you to.

[@ballacaust]

very cool to see you cover this game, and I really appreciate that you always try to actually be good at the games you cover.

[@Evanz111]

Renn, I’ve missed your videos so much since I ran out of older uploads to binge! Love that you’re still putting in such huge effort, and this game seems perfect for your coverage honestly. Keep up the amazing work! ❤

[@vFirehawk]

What a masterpiece. Thank you for this video Renn!

[@wakomikro]

I just found your channel and i enjoy your wit, humor, and energy. Without going over the top or screaming all the time. Nice.

[@WhenYouWakeUpFeelingOld]

You are hands down one of my fav KZbinr’s right now. Been amazing seeing yer progress in terms of your production and scope over the past couple years (especially as a video creator myself). Keep it up and never lose sight of that unique creative spirit and humor ya got.

I've loved HYPER DEMON for a while now but have had a hard time introducing friends to it due to how insane it looks to an outsider. thanks for making a video I can pester my friends to watch to try and get them to play it

Renn you are looking really good lately, I am super proud of you man! Wishing you and your channel the best!

I am a huge fan of Devil Daggers and I really enjoy your content so this was a nice surprise to see!

[@pearsy2639]

Love the videos renn, your sense of humour is great. I love the parts of you wandering around town. Most gaming youtubers just monologue over gaming clips and it can get very boring.

[@refusingtoconform]

This is my favorite video of yours. Your editing, your passion, fantastic. Thank you Renn. You are quickly becoming one of my favorite little boy.

[@kanemoss4490]

You look well man. And as always a pleasure to see an upload from you!

[@toysoldiernerio7172]

I describe Hyperdemon as my favorite religious experience. I'm coming off of the prior title they made Devil daggers.

[@blackbeast9268]

long comment but I find this game's visuals interesting and thanks to this video I'm gonna buy it a lot of it is trippy psychedelic but I would argue the game is similar to anticholinergics and DTs from alcohol and other GABAergic substances anticholinergics expand the pupil HUGELY. more than other stuff, because acetylcholine makes pupil smaller and there is A LOT of acetylcholin ereceptors in the eye (both Nicotinic and muscarinic agonist make pupil smaller, like Nicotine without tolerance) and someone who's not me did anticholinergics and can confirm it basically makes your FOV bigger . you can see most of the room you're sitting in and it constantly wraps and changes it's much more than psychedelics, the hallucinations are tho real people and shadowy stuff, pure machr blockers like scopoalamine shouldn't cause nightmare fuel, it's more just confusing and it reduces Adrenaline and relaxes muscles and is relaxing / euphoric and dts is similar to this game because it's utterly nightmare fuel, more than Scopolamine by a long shot the hallucinations of dts are very "immersive " and trance state lik3, its not cone. I know someone who drank a lot and did beso who had bugs crawling and saw demonic shit, he has tried acopolamine and it doesn't compare to the pure terror dts . glutamate is involved in lots of the psychedelic visuals (the "simple" visuals) because 5ht2a release lots of glutamate dts is pure glutamate, and alcohol is even worse than benso because of nmda upregulation TLDR this game is like a acid nightmare but also more akin to anticholinergics and dts

[@blackbeast9268]

alcohol is also a moderate VGCC blocker and 5ht3 agonist and glycine alpha subunit blocker (wich causes chloride influx and reduces action potential) and it's a Nicotinic drug so the dts from alcohol is pure nightmare fuel, the dreams from withdrawal hell and much worse than a bad psychedelic trip

[@Allplussomeminus]

20:48 that footage looked like a kindergarten playground compared to all the HELL you just showed.

[@hotpotatoreff3240]

Great video!

[@Azimii]

that truly was the best ad lmao

[@kylegonewild]

Kind of reminds me of N2O from way back on the PS1. That game focused more on the music than the raw sound design, but it was extremely stimulating when I was a kid to just barrel down those tunnels killing bugs to a thumping soundtrack while these psychedelic elements blended into the experience. We need more niche designs where the focus is on engaging gameplay loops and brushed down styles. That red hologram of enemies is a pretty great idea. This seems cool as hell.

[@dylanrickard738]

Good stuff as always 👍

[@quake3video]

fun and interesting video style

[@flightlessfinch6227]

[@ManleyReviews]

devil daggers is immensely based.

[@artursjoblom5142]

Hyper Demon and Devil Daggers are both such a breath of fresh air in the gaming sphere. "High gameplay density" is one way to categorize them, unlike modern games that often have low gameplay density with alot of filler and downtime. I wish some of the bigger gaming developers had some balls and made new innovative and creative games. Not just re-releasing previous gaming ideas with shiny new graphics and predatory monetization tactics like lootboxes, micro transactions etc sigh....
