[@plotheplayer6462]

Aye, fair enough.

[@great_hedgehog8199]

I get the joke, but why can't anyone just accept that Squid is smart enough to know the difference between an in-game character and the actual player controlling it?

There's something so cool to me about a youtuber I followed for years play a game who's development ive been following for years since pretty much day 1 it's so cool I swear

[@betzyellow]

5:47 that's what parenting is all about seeing you play rage games will always feel specially familiar to your channel. however, despite having seen you play a couple of those before (such as getting over it or insane sans fan battles, for example) this is the first time one game style reminds me so much to the iwbtg stuff you used to play in the beginnings of your channel, while at the same time staying unique and fresh. that, adding your improvements as a player and content creator over time after so many years, is a mixture for a great time! this was a boost of happiness for today, i really enjoyed the vid and i hope to see you return to this game very soon

Yeah! Best game ever imo. So unique and so generic at the same time.

[@fygygufyufyyfhchcxgxy4290]

Also merg there is a "I am frustrated" option in the "exit game" part of the pause screen which will let you play a fun leveling minigame that can help you calm down, also it's kinda fun!

[@RoboWreckerCam]

Back to the old days of really hard 2d platformers with a double jump! Yay

[@lemonbreadut]

I literally just finished watching a no commentary playthrough of this. Trust me, this is a game you'll enjoy a lot.

[@trickygamer555]

Depends on your definition of "enjoy" but yes

[@Oofator]

Just know that if you ever get too frustrated, there's an option called "I'm frustrated" that pops up when you select exit game. Select that and see what happens :)

[@dungewar]

OMG I never expected this! I watched the developer for a long time, but I never would've thought you would play it! This is amazing!

[@SpaceLobster21]

Return of Snaley! Honestly I'm loving this so far, looking forward to more videos! Also I love all the little references you're making, the cherry is cultured

It's been already 3 months but I still feel proud about the fact that you played the game, it makes me so happy. This playthrough means a lot to me. Thank you merg. ❤️🍒

[@Simbel]

I don't know if you're doing it on purpose or not but the reason why Squid calls you a human despite you incarnating a snail is simply because Squid spends his entire time talking to you directly, the player, and not Shelly, the snail (Unless there's some deep lore stuff later in the game that disprove what I just said since I didn't finish the game yet)

[@keymash]

Merg is on a roll with amazing games back to back! idk why but this reminds me of the IWBTG videos you did back then for some reason

[@jerryy147]

cuz it's also a platformer?

Merg is a "I wanna be the guy" master , pretty sure he can do some spike jumps

[@unitysparticlesystem]

Fun fact for people that just found out about this game: This game has 1367 voicelines for Squid that all of them are recorded by the developer of the game , Jonas Tyroller. He made devlogs of this game from start to finish and they are on his youtube channel. Just search Jonas Tyroller and you'll see them

[@basicallytoxic]

I just wanted to say that there are actually multiple color palettes which you can apply in the settings menu. There is one called "modern" and I personally think it looks the best, especially in the future areas! The modern color scheme actually was supposed to replace the classic one (the one you are using right now)

It is also after the original game. It does feel like playing Omori again. If you want more Omori content you can check out this mod it is pretty well made. Enjoy yourself merg!

I vividly remember watching your playlist of i wanna be the guy twice. You’re honestly so skilled- at the very least persistent at these kind of kaizo games. All that practice with no hit runs on undertale has kept up your undeniable craft at these type of precision games so it’s a fun romp watching you tackle one of these again! good luck :3
