[@thegoodrichgames]

Where's My Water franchise was killed when Disney made it "free to play" in an attempt to chase higher profits. That's why we added power-ups, hints, and Facebook integration. After WMW2 failed to monetize to Disnry expectations they laid off the majority of our team ending the franchise. I really enjoyed making the games, the Turfinator and Ooze/purple icicles and music note challenges being my creations.

[@b2soummamproductions317]

Hi! Love the video. Just wanted to give an answer for the "why did they choose Phineas and Ferb in 2012?" : it just was that popular. The show aired from 2007 to 2015, 8 years and 129 episodes which is crazy for an animated show. It even had a Marvel and a Star Wars crossover special and was the only TV franchise to be added to the game Disney Infinity alongside their big movie characters. In 2011, Disney even created a national platypus day, and had Michelle Obama do "the platypus dance" to celebrate the event in 2012. The choice for a spin off choice may seem odd today, but back then Phineas and Ferb was an absolute phenomenon

[@theflyingspaget]

Genuinely I was wondering why he even bothered explaining what Phineas and Ferb is, anyone born before 2012 almost certainly knows the show because it played on loop on TV every summer from 2010 to... Well they still play it every summer now but kids don't watch TV anymore.

[@ego-lay_atman-bay]

I am actually pretty big in the wmw community, specifically the modding community (which I made...), I feel like I have had a pretty good feel for all the ganes, or most of them anyway. As much as I am in the wmw community, the little games I've actually played thoroughly. I grew up with the original wmw, specifically the T-Mobile edition (that also had exclusive levels), played perry's story in wmp, a tiny bit of wmm, more of wmw2, and a tiny tiny bit of wmxyy. The only 2 games I've played as a kid were wmw, and wmw2, the others I played after I got into mmthe community. I have even speedran all of swampy's story in wmw (it takes around 2 hours). Through all that, I do have opinions on all the games, and I could rank them pretty well. As I'm a modder, I am going to mention some things about modding the gane, as well as some hidden things that you may not know about. Where's My Water? S I love the original game, and I feel like it's the best in the series. It had very well designed levels that I enjoyed playing (some tedious levels, but very few of those), the graphics hold up very well to this day, and the character animations are very well made. I actually put this in S tier because I just love this game so much. Plus, the game is actually pretty easy to mod. That's why they were able to crank out updates so quickly. Fun fact, there was actually an in-game level editor that was used to make the levels, but unfortunately, it was only in developer builds, so we do not have access to it. Where's My Perry?: High A This is honestly what I consider a proper sequal to the game, all because it adds so much. There are all the new mechanics that you mentioned, the voice over, which I do find fun, but I'd rather play them off, The levels were actually pretty fun to play. Where's My Holiday?: B I actually like this game, as I feel that the levels are pretty fun. I honestly haven't played much of it, but I do like it a lot. Plus, having wmp levels with wmw levels is also awesome. One thing I want to mention, the reason why the game specific mechanics stay in that game mode, is because it literally switches games. Yup, when you select perry mode, it takes a while to load, because it's loading all the files again, but for wmp. Plus, it even switches the game code to run the perry specific mechanics. Where's My Valentine?: C This is actually an update to wmh, they just changed all the levels, and images (and layouts). I like this game, but not as much as the christmas theme. Where's My Summer?: C This one is special, as far as we know, it was exclusive to ios. The promotional material (and the ad you showed in the video) did suggest an android version, but that never came to be. The only version released was on ios. The big problem with it, is that it's stuck on older devices, the devices that can still run 32-bit apps. Fortunately I have an old ipad that I used as a kid, and I was able to get it installed and play it. I actually liked the idea of the levels, and I absolutely understand why they chose perry. Phineas and Ferb is all about summer, so it's very fitting. Where's My Water? free: A Trust me, this is worth ranking. I love the free version, and all the updates it got. It had exclusive levels that you could only play in the free version. Meet swampy actually had different levels for a while. A bunch of the level packs in lost levels are actually from the free version updates. The best update is probably the Frankenweenie update. They made 10 wmw levels to promote the Frankenweenie movie, and they were awesome. They applied a grey filter over the level, and the levels were fun. Unfortunately, the filter is green in the full game (you can get it through modding), so the best way to play those levels is by downloading the version of wmwf with those levels. The latest update made the game not as fun, as they took out the exclusive levels, and put in levels from the full game. I have to put this in A tier. It would be higher if they didn't remove the exclusive levels. Where's My Mickey?: C I'm not a huge fan of this game, as it only has 2 liquids, and I just generally didn't think it was very fun. The cutscenes are prerendered, which already makes them better than the last few games (wmp uses puppet animation for the cutscenes. That's why they look off). The best part that I actually liked about the games, was that in the level packs, where you select a level, you can play a mini level, showing the new gimmick for that pack. Where's My XiYangYang?: B I have not played very much of this game, specifically because it doesn't work well on my phone. But from what I've seen, it genuinely looks fun, to play. There was actually an international version of this game, Where's My Water? Featuring XiYanYang (such a long title). Pretty sure this was basically the same game, but had fewer levels, and swampy was on the title screen. Where's My Water? 2: D I hate this game. The graphics are not very good, I very much prefer the original, the ads, powerups (which you usually have to pay for), the keys (which you used to have to pay for, or do some facebook thing), the map, the pacing, and the ads. The pacing of all the other games is great. After you beat a level, you can immediately go to the next level, and that's it. In wmw2, after you beat a level, you have to go back to the map, maybe watch an ad, wait for a long animation to play, unlocking the next level and the challenges, then when you play the next level, a thing pops up letting you choose powerups, and forcing you to press another button to actually play the level. This takes around 30 seconds, whereas the other games take 2. I hate the powerups, because they just feel like cheating. The challenges are a cool concept, and they actually probably could've done more with them, but they are fine as they currently are. I've never finished the game, but from what I've heard some levels get absurdly hard. I do actually also like playing the levels for the different characters in the same location (or level pack). But other then that, there's not really anything noteworthy. Something very interesting has also been happening recently. The gane has been getting some updates. Sure, they;re not content updates, and usually are just bug fixes, or adding chromebook support (yes, you can play it on chromebook now), but there is one very noteworthy update that was very recent. Version 1.9.21, which is currently only on ios right now (ios is on 1.9.22, and android is on 1.9.20), actually removed the second level. I have no clue why they removed it, but they did, and I'm kind of annoyed. Yeah, I hate the game, and I never really like the second level (it's a duck rush level), but it's still not cool to straight up, remove a level after over 10 years. For all of that, I have to put it in D tier. It's not in F, because I do have some fun playing the game, not a lot, but there are some good things about it (I forgot to mention all the duck costumes. Man, those are awesome). That is my overall ranking of the games.

[@ego-lay_atman-bay]

I do want to talk about the many many versions of the games on different devices. There's just so many of them. First there's the original, wmw on ios, android, and kindle fire. Then there was a T-Mobile edition, that I'm pretty sure was preinstalled on some T-Mobile phones (this is the version I played as a kid). It also had exclusive levels, in a level pack that you needed 200 ducks to unlock. There was also a windows version, specifically for the windows phone, but it does kind of work on windows 10 (and 11). I only say kind of, because there's a weird mouse offset that I don't know how to fix. A more recent find, is that there was apparently an LG TV version. There's not much known about this, and we don't have the actual app right now, but we know it exists, as there are some videos about it. Interestingly, there was also a mac version, which did have some missing LOTW levels, so that was a great find. The free version also had some interesting versions. There's obviously the ios, android, and kindle fire versions, but did you know they also ported it to adobe flash? Yeah, you can play it in the flashpoint archive, albeit very laggy, but it exists. There's also the windows version, which does not have the mouse offset issue. Where's My Perry? had a free version, and free and full windows versions. Not much to say here though. Where's My Mickey? had a full, XL, and free versions. The XL version was large tablet (ipad) only though, which had exclusive levels. Fun fact, you can actually install the XL version on an android phone, you just need to get the apk (which we have, complete with all the DLC). There was also a windows version of this. I don't know if there was a free version though. Where's My XiYangYang had the regular version on android and ios, but it also had an international version Where's My Water Featuring XiYangYang. This version was available to everyone. There was also a windows version of wmwfxyy. I have actually also found leaked source code to an early version of this game, although it doesn't include everything. The source code has literally been up publicly on github for over 10 years, and it's still up. Unfortunately since it's not the full source code, we can't build it (but we could try to recreate the missing parts with the wmw flash version decompilation). This code does seem like it's in the transition from wmm to xyy though. This github repository also suggests that there was supposed to be a mac version, but none has been found yet. Another cool find in this repo, is that there are some internal documents that are in chinese about the design of the game. Where's My Water 2? is probably the least significant, as there's only the ios, android (and I guess you could include chromebook, as it's supported there too), and kindle fire versions. There is also a windows version. We have actually also managed to find a wmw2 windows beta version, it's specifically titled Beta 3. Now, I mentioned LOTW earlier. What is that? It's Level Of The Week. During some time, there was a feature where the devs would put out a new level each week, for each of the characters. They also had a photo finish feature, which would take a picture of the level after you beat it, and also show you all your touches. These levels have not been well preserved, so there is an active hunt to find, and / or recreate them, based off videos about them. It's a preservation project that some users in the wmw community are working on. There are many chinese modders actively trying to recreate the levels. You can find more about the levels on the wiki. About modding the game. The game is pretty easy to mod, all of the games share a similar format, and is kind of fun to mod. I have spent a long time, pretty much reverse engineering how the game reads the data, so I could create a full level editor, that uses the data from the game to display the objects. This level editor was actually very big for the modding community, as everyone has been creating levels by editing the level files by hand, which can take a very long time. When it comes to the modding community, there was, and still is a relatively large chinese modding community. Apparently there was a chinese modding group, back when the game was still getting updates, and during the LOTW era. To this day, you can find tons of custom levels on bilibili (the chinese youtube), and even a channel on youtube that has been creating, and showing tons of custom levels for years. It wasn't until a couple years ago when I started modding the game, and decided to create a modding discord server, specifically a more western community, as not everyone can use QQ, or knows chinese (I for one, don't know chinese). We actually got some people fron the chinese modding community to join the more western modding server. Apparently wmw was very huge in china, and maybe still is. I feel like the wmw community got more active, and larger due to modding the game. There have also been some great western modders. As much as I'd like to call myself a big modder, I haven't really made many mods. I'm way more interested in creating tools for modding the game (such as a level editor). Because of that, I feel like I know the internals of the game more than most (there are some people that know more about the internals than me, especially in other areas not revolving around levels). Another modder, campbellsonic, has made some restoration mods for wmp and wmm, which include the dlcs, and the wmp restoration mod fixes the broken custscenes. These are definitive versions to play, as they include everything unlocked (or at least, not under a nonfunctional paywall). Anyway, loved the video, and hope you liked my very long comment about the wmw games. If you read all of it, reply "swampyhacker". By the way, swampyhacker was the name of that chinese modding group from during the wmw days.

[@Jake.Miller]

Wow, a very thorough and detailed explanation of the games - better than I did, probably! You should make your own video (if you haven’t already haha). Other than the holiday titles it sounds like we mostly agreed as well, which is always nice to see. I’d love for more of the community to join you here in the video and share their takes! Maybe you could share it with them? I find it very fascinating to see an active community for this series. Anyways thank you very much for such a well-made comment/review here!

[@ego-lay_atman-bay]

@@Jake.Miller I actually found this video because it was shared in the wmw community.

[@ego-lay_atman-bay]

@@Jake.Miller You could make a followup video going into the many different versions of the games, like the ones I talked about.

[@Niteshade_]

The difficulty spike in the 2nd game is wild

[@Jake.Miller]

Yea they REALLY wanted people buying those powerups

[@spacefalcon6900]

I didn't know the LORE of Where's my water at all, I haven't played it since i was a kid!, But As a kid i thought Cranky was the mother of allie and swampy, apprently my kid brain was too small to analyse the cut scenes. 😅

[@Jake.Miller]

Haha I could understand father but mother is pretty nuts

[@SawyerPlaysTv]

15:19 I love how you can clearly tell that he’s in a dark room trying to be quiet.

[@andreworders7305]

Why were these delisted? Disney doesn’t need to license its own property.

[@bashfulwolfo6499]

This made me replay the entirety of Where’s My Water (first game), and the fact that I even remember that the lil carvings in the collection menu give you secret levels was insane to me. I remember the first time getting a 100% when I was a kid. I spent so damn long playing this game lmao

[@sofiabandita12]

Great video mate! keep up the good work! I remember being obsessed with Perry the Platypus, and always playing that Perry game.

[@Jake.Miller]

Thank you! Everyone had a perry phase haha

[@pocodyess6050]

Have you ever turned algae into stone using ooze? Since we never got an ooze-based character, I once had a concept for one: an "artist" alligator who needed that particular mechanic to get stone so he could make stone sculptures.

[@mr.productions327]

5:55 - 6:02 That joke was insane. 😂

[@Jake.Miller]

Haha a lot of people probably didn’t even catch it

[@mr.productions327]

21:18 Also, you're in love with a allegator and you can't deny that.

[@realjubagas]

Wheres my water is one of the first mobile games i ever played. It really shows what a good mobile game is, with a small but funny storyline, simplistic yet addictive gameplay, and a bunch of great game variations that don’t decline in quality over time! (i’m looking at you angry birds)

[@Jake.Miller]

Yeah no kidding. Keep things SIMPLE

[@TakashiGolbach]

Yee! I’ve known this game since I was like 3 or smth

[@Peace_of_Toast]

I’m proud you acknowledged there being two Swampy’s in this series.

[@Jake.Miller]

wait I did

[@Jake.Miller]

OHHHH swampy from phineas

[@X-SPONGED]

13:30 Omfg I can't be the only one that recognized that clay game. You just unlocked a core childhood memory dude. It was- uh- it was something to do with getting the most clay at the end right? Damn, I was a fucking toddler when I played that on my mom's phone. I can't even remember what the gameplay was like but the _MOMENT_ I saw that artstyle the fuzzy memories instantly came back to me

[@Sander_44]

Cranky tries to cope with a sex doll is probably the last thing I thought id hear

[@slob5041]

It’s interesting that the scroll bar still exists, it shows how we still thought at the time that stuff like that was needed

[@ivytime]

i actually got my hands on where's my xiyangyang before where's my water and i was obsessed. not with the game as a whole, but just the bells.

[@Guywithaname199]

I played this really much, when I was young. Thank you so much😄

[@Jake.Miller]

You’re welcome! Glad to remind you of your childhood games

[@rwbypro8758]

One thing I think could be cool is a ranking video on all the Phineas and Ferb games that were on the Disney website, I remember there being a decent amount and kid me thinking they were fun

[@Jake.Miller]

I wonder if there’s a way to play them these days?

[@ego-lay_atman-bay]

​@@Jake.MillerIf they're flash games, then they might be in the flashpoint archive. If not, you could try asking in the phineas and ferb game community server.

[@theflyingspaget]

​@@ego-lay_atman-baynot sure about the p+f games in particular but actually *most* Disney flash games are missing because a lot of them were taken down a few years before the death of flash so Flashpoint has far less than you'd expect.

[@Nicktendoxtxl]

14:57 I love how Perry’s just like “I don’t have time for this shit.”

[@The-EJ-Factor]

12:45 ahh yes I remember wholly, the game where I threw ice cubes into someone’s toosh

[@Jake.Miller]

How could you forget haha

[@ImNoob_V]

I haven't watched the video yet, but I bet it's gonna be awesome

[@Jake.Miller]

Can’t believe you bet correctly!!! You win!!!

19:09 LMAO the shade Beautiful 😂

[@Jake.Miller]

Haha I had to get my anger out on it, I’m over it now that I’ve gotten to vent and make jokes about it

[@Gamerdog-io3ow]

The main one of these that I remember is where's my mickey for some reason, and I especially remembered it because of the goofey levels which I guess my parents bought me as a kid

[@Clive-the-cat1]

you need to ake BOMBS!?!? merch

[@Jake.Miller]

Haha that would be awesome

[@Jelly_shy_guy_man]

The last one was crazy and WHERES MY WATA

Haha whe ma WATA

[@theunknown4834]

As someone from the Eastern side of the world, I can assure you that's our childhood and is indeed one of our "mickey" over there. Other ones includes doraemon, some monkey King show. Also damn you murdered that pronunciation of xi yang yang (sea young young)

[@Alex_Off-Beat]

A Bloons tier list video sounds like a great idea! That series has a ton of different games that vary wildly in quality.

[@Jake.Miller]

Very true. I feel like I gotta do it

[@OBJECTIVE_FUN]

Bro just unlocked deep memories

[@Jake.Miller]

The vault has been OPENED

No problemo

This is like the best where’s my (character) video of them all

[@nitrostormskystriker478]

You are insane for completing all of these. You earned my respect.

[@Jake.Miller]

I will take your respect haha thank you

[@pandadude17]

The lead designer of the series did a Q & A on discord a few years ago. When asked, he said they chose Perry the Platypus because they were told to do a Phineas and Ferb spin off and felt Perry made the most sense why he would be stuck underground with you needing to help him

[@TorosAndMakis53]

I loved the Mickey Mouse 2013 shorts!

[@Jake.Miller]

I know they’re so gooood

[@Danny-hh8dq]

Of course pair would be the only one in who has my summer finish. Some fun takes place mainly in the summer

The story of this vs cut the rope is the one quote of "you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become a villain"

[@The-RoweBoat]

excellent work, made me miss the game all the more. though i didn’t know there were so many

[@Jake.Miller]

Thank you! They really made more than they had any right to haha

[@aria_daize9926]

Fun fact, wheres my perry was actually made to tie into a special going on at the time with the show. There was a huge cliff hanger finale where perry disappeared once he was shot with all of doofs -inators. There was all kinds of perry games on the Disney website at the time, and i remember this game being heavily advertised for the wait between the finale and the next seasons premiere

[@brodyhyde9100]

THATS IT I HAVE HAD IT WITH THESE FUN FACT COMMENTS!!! ITS GETTING OUT OF HAND! JUST STOP WITH IT! AND ALSO HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU KNOW THESE!

I gotta admit the even a bear actually got me

You legally HAD to admit it was funny haha

@Jake.Miller oh so that's why the FBI came over and made me laugh at it

They’re gonna visit every Sunday now so you better get freaking used to it

[@Miner49r]

@@Jake.Miller yes ill make sure to watch your videos and comment on how funny they are (please dont break my knee caps)

[@TheWASHINGMACHINEBOY]

also my sister once said near when the first game came out that every time you win a level, a donation is made to a water saving organization. i didn't believe her

[@tigerspruce8580]

Oh man I remember Where's my water and wheres my perry. Those games were like my first games on my phone when i was younger.

[@Jake.Miller]

Yeah Disney just RUINED my intro!!!

[@thedoglovinggamer5825]

I loved watching the where’s my water cartoon shorts!

[@MasterOfPeggle]

I have extremely fond memories of playing these games as a child, i remember having where's my water free, the perry and mickey spinoff, the valentines spinoff, and wheres my water 2 which i never got far in due to the keys. I thought the valentines spinoff was peak, looking back its really not 😭

[@TheLegendSizzle]

I love the cutscene arts in the first game

[@Jake.Miller]

Yeah super detailed drawings, I love them too

[@appleboy3973]

You’ve been inspiring me to triduck the full first game. (Swampy only.)

[@SgtValentine8448]

I had a swampy and cranky plushies back in the day. Also Where’s my Perry has the best sound track out of all of the Where’s My Water games. The theme music for the Doofenshmirtz levels is amazing. I would even say it is better than the one from the show. I redownloaded the game just to hear that theme music again. It is that good.

[@khfan9504]

Omg i thought I remembered a muppet mobile game and you made me realize I wasn’t having a Mandela effect type thing

[@Jake.Miller]

Yep it’s real, don’t forget that now

[@BreaksBee]

it be nice if swampy appeared in a phineas & ferb appearance like in the background of OWCA

[@Jake.Miller]

Yeah he could be an agent!

[@TotherKoala]

I think the rationale for making Where's My Perry was so that they could change the style. By having Doof as the one making the puzzles, we swap out the old sewer mechanisms for Perry's best frenemy's crazy sci-fi inventions, allowing for a lot more variety with levels with it still making sense.

[@ecernosoft3096]

“So you don’t have to” No sir. We have to. Nostalgia.

[@AserOsama-m5i]

13:33 was that clay jam in one of these game

[@Jake.Miller]

Probably yeah I had everything

​@@Jake.Miller I loved that game can you do a video about those old games

I'm Chinese and I was surprised that where's my Weslie(Xiyangyang's official English name) happened also there's over 3000 episodes now and I have watched all of them

[@e.2526]

Honestly I find that making the overflow bonus infinite in where’s my Perry a good change cause you gotta go for that high score

[@Jake.Miller]

I honestly didn’t know it was infinite, but I did notice it was capped in Mickey. I wonder if there are scoreboards out there for the best scores

[@NibzEntertainment]

5:21 Morshu: You want it? Swampy: No! Morshu: It's yours, my friend, as long as you have enough rupees.

[@Jake.Miller]

Swampy: NOOO

[@4d_awesome]

Imagine a Where’s My Water? level editor where you could switch sort of texture packs that would just be the other games. Then you could remake the entire series. Maybe that’s why there were so many…

[@TakashiGolbach]

I always wanted this too

[@2MTMogul]

I played this as a kid, it’s so nostalgic to me.

[@SilverDino64]

wheres my water and the perry version was a big part of my infance

[@Jake.Miller]

Same bro same

[@Nuno35691]

YESSS FNAF AND BLOONS TIERLIST PLEASEEE JAKE

[@AnthonyIPlays]

I’ve play Where’s My Water and it’s sequel along with the Perry and Mickey versions but I never knew they had Valentines/Christmas or Summer apps with exclusive levels. It’s a weird move to port those levels in an exclusive app rather than the character’s main game. It’s probably why I never knew about them until you first mentioned it in the video.

[@Jake.Miller]

Yeah they weren’t a big deal I’m not surprised you hadn’t seen them before!

[@theflyingspaget]

They were in a different app because they were free promotions for the main game. I remember playing them because my parents wouldn't let me pay for the games and I had run out of levels in the free portions of the main two games at the time
