@@justinsharp6323 As a native german speaker, I don't think "sonder" is a german word at all, really. Especially not in this context. Sonder is basically a short form of "besonders" which translates to "special". It is used only as a compound word, e.g. in "Sonderschule" or "special school" which is a school for special needs children. Really no clue what you are talking about lol

The year is 1996. I'm a young lad in post-collapse Russia, my toys are sticks that vaguely resemble blasters if you squint, and my idea of sweets is bread with sugar sprinkled on top. One day, my aunt takes me to her boyfriend's place, where my attention is immediately drawn to a strange white TV on a desk. My aunt's boyfriend presses a couple of buttons, drags a white box across the desk, and then suddenly I'm hit with Terry S. Taylor's bonkers avant-garde jazz. A cartoon starts on the screen, except... I can control the main character? To say that my mind was blown is to say nothing at all. This was my introduction to computers, my introduction to videogames, my introduction to a life that wasn't pure misery. For all these things, the Neverhood is always going to remain in my heart.

The Neverhood is my all time favorite childhood game. I remember seeing it on display at the Atlanta Children's Science Museum in the 90s and was hooked. I was too young to realize that my computer could barely handle running the game, so I thought all the audio/video stuttering I encountered from the discs was intentional. The soundtrack still slaps. The humor is great. The puzzles are fun. When I have children, I'll make sure they play The Neverhood too (also The Lost Mind of Doctor Brain.)

It's heartwarming to see The Neverhood recognized by somebody of your size and influence. Hopefully it will raise devs awareness to remaster it and not just sell cr*ppy NFTs! (looking at you Doug) The reality is that the original high-res images for stop-motion are archived, but EA or whoever holds the rights doesn't care about using it, so it just rots... I am sure they would be willing to cut some deal. For now you can at least check out my upscales and there are at least two projects that I know of. One is remaking this game in 3D inside Unity and other is remaking the game engine to accept upscaled assets.

one of my absolute favorites from the 90's would love more videos like this on just whatever random games you love and remember, your love for this game shows in the video and I think it's one of my favorites you've made this year.

Holy shit, you've been talking about this video for AGES! Man I loved this game. My uncle bought a gaming magazine (lol) and it had this as a free game, so he gave it to me. Man, it was difficult for a 8 year old kid... I think. Damn, I'm SO glad it's finally HERE!!!

It's wild to me that I search up "The Neverhood" on yt and the results are from 3 years ago, 8 years ago, SIXTEEN years ago... and 1 day ago! I picked up this game tonight but haven't finished yet so I'll watch the rest of this video later so as not to spoil anything. Cheers!

Kind of reminds me of those weird playdough movies on VHS tapes that came with certain sets. We had the volcano island one but lost or tossed it in a move.

Theres anothed clay-mation adventure game that was released a little while ago that gave me big Neverhood vibes. Its called 'You Have To Open All The Doors.'

Ok, that was really damn cool. I was half expecting that at the end of the Game the King there was Evil for some reason, but him literally just being lonely and sad and trying not to be was awesome.

Hell yeah, been looking forward to this video! It's been a real treat to hear Neverhood music on your channel, it always makes me smile. Something of note though, despite being a niche game, it's still influencing developers today! The visual style of Vokabulantis, an upcoming puzzle/platformer, is heavily inspired by the Neverhood. From the little I've seen, it seems to carry the claymation tradition very well.

This was a cool change of pace with your usual outtings. You let the game do most of the work with all the funny nonsense, loved it. I would love to see you play an actual Metroid or Castlevania

i am so glad to see neverhood brought up again. This game utterly terrified me as a child but i loved it so much, something about these old point and clicks always made them terrifying with the aesthetics they chose.

I was raised on this game... sat in my mom's lap and played it. We still have old game notes saved from the puzzles. Loved this vid, such great cuts and commentary. Also, my fave part was the end where you can choose to put the crown on and go evil

I remember playing this as a child - never made it too far in because I think I might have actually been a little too young to actually grasp some of the puzzles. Glad to know that the game actually did exist, and wasn't just a fever dream 😂

2 things I'd like to mention: - the ending actually gave you a choice to either give the crown to the king or put it on yourself, making you the new ruler and villain. So there were multiple endings. - there has been another claymation spiritual successor that was released through Kickstarter called Armikrog. Great video!

This game is a trip. I played this game back in the day when it came out (i was 10/11) and it confused the hell out of me. The game just starts and explains nothing. I played this with my nephew and wandered around this crazy world for hours. Back then, there were no walkthroughs, haha! A truly unique experience. Combining games with claymation… love it. A true 90’s gem.
