He's a cool guy: World's Worst Handyman

[@babylumberjack]

Hey, I’m the dev of World’s Worst Handyman! Thanks a ton for playing the Steam demo! Thinking I might need to add a knockout counter just for how many times Game Grumps gets KO’d by grandma, haha!

[@squidwardshouse5431]

Within the first 10 seconds of gaming, you've convinced me to get this game. You and Thank Goodness You're Here.

[@DamiMarian]

Hey! The game looks really fun, I'll be sure to wishlist it now. Great work with it!

[@marijntaal1531]

Wow, sick burn! Are you gonna let that slide Grumps?

[@babylumberjack]

@@squidwardshouse5431 Thanks! Being compared to Thank Goodness You’re Here is such an honor-what a hilarious game. If you’re up for it, the World's Worst Handyman demo on Steam has even more content than what was shown in the video.

[@babylumberjack]

@@DamiMarian Thanks so much for the support and the wishlist! It means a lot. If you’re curious to dive in early, there’s a demo on Steam that’s packed with more fun-would love to hear what you think!

[@LithmusEarth]

22:11 I'm impressed by the number of subtle reminders the game uses that they miss. Drawing your attention to the dvd player, giving it a little circle to indicate it's interactive, dinging and updating your quest list. Oh man, it's rough sometimes, it's like watching those ads for junk games.

[@SirkSirk]

I felt like Dan after he left the room. Just saying, "Arin..."

[@VxJasonxV]

Performance is a cognitive function, multitasking cognitive functions is hard, even a fully aware person can miss things, but a fully aware person doing multiple things misses more. Also, ADHD.

[@GG-hy5ck]

And you miss lots of things too, you just don’t know because you missed them. And they’re comedians, not speed runners lol

It’s easy when you’re sitting watching and analyzing everything. Different when you’re playing

Itd be disappointing if he didn't do this every time 😅

We have reached a new level of Arin not paying attention to his surrounding by him being surprised a house has a front door. I love this channel

[@TheCreepyLantern]

once again one of the grumps actually reads the tutorial aloud and Arin is STILL able to be 'what the hell i've no idea where to find X'

[@resileaf9501]

Yes, it's something they've stated in the past. Because they focus on making voices and jokes, the thing they're actually reading goes in the eyes and out the mouth and doesn't stick around.

And yet here we all are, still watching 😂

[@meatharbor]

My favorite part is not even five minutes in when Dan says "You might have to sneak into her streaming room" and Arin IMMEDIATELY enters full reflexive contrarian mode with "But, I... Oh."

Curiously, he still manages to be slightly wrong - "You're not supposed to do that!" It doesn't hurt anything to shake polaroids about if you're not weirdly violent about it, it just does literally nothing to affect the rate at which they self-develop.

[@aud7593]

​@@Archgeek0 i think it affects your own perception of how long it takes. like instead of staring at it waiting for it to develop (feels like 2000 years), you're actively doing something (occupies brain, feels like 10 seconds)
