These Infinite Puzzles Have an Extremely Clever Secret! - Patrick's Parabox

[@Aliensrock]

Short episode this time, because I like to end episodes when I complete a section, and the next section is very long and hard. So long, in fact, that we haven't finished editing it yet. So this is what we've got. Next episode's got some insane mindblowers, stay tuned!

long and hard you say eh?

“Very long and hard” that’s what she said

[@redpepper74]

It’s so interesting how in the text-based levels you can see the entire level all at once represented by a finite amount of text, even with triple-staggered recursion.

[@nopenope6150]

I bet the ASCII levels were what the dev used when prototyping/designing the levels

[@telnobynoyator_6183]

@@nopenope6150 probably similar but without the ASCII text

[@TheAgentAPM]

Those text-based levels actually helped me to think about those wolds not as some complex recursive embeddings, but as simple portals. Rendering one box multiple times just makes it look confusing.

[@brioul]

@@nopenope6150 I doubt it was for prototyping/designing individual levels. At the end of the game, you get some behind the scene screenshots, including a screenshot of a level editor. I think it either just the dev having fun, or it was for debugging purposes to see what's actually going on without the added complexity of the graphics

[@bengoodwin2141]

Yep, that's because it's the simplest representation without anything repeating. I think.

[@Bluemangrup]

I absolutely love this "Centre" section because it takes what is obvious from the beginning and makes it a puzzle. You don't really care that you go to the middle of each block every time you enter/exit, you just focus on the fact that you're pushing blocks, then suddenly the position actually matters, it's really neat

[@noellesears10]

7:15 i was told size mattered but, you're the expert

[@johnzheng8652]

I think it's amazing how the text-based recursive level was somehow very understandable, even without the obvious visual recursion! I wonder if there are recursive levels in the future which might be more easily solved in that text-based, simplified form than in its main-game form.

[@ZefulStarson]

I'm pretty sure, because the recursion aspect of the game is mostly dressing and aesthetics, and you can treat them as teleporters with the same net effect. This is encouraged by the ascii levels because they lack the visual design of the rest of the game.

[@Wolf355_1]

"the levels keep getting bigger" Actually the levels are getting smaller in size.

[@redpepper74]

Or are the previous levels getting bigger around you?

@@redpepper74 then the levels still aren't getting bigger as they are staying the same size.

episode 3 hype! i wonder if/when it will use that outermost layer for something! cuz a game like this is almost certaintly going to do something crazy meta like that

[@Khaim.m]

You mean the void? It actually doesn't. It does play with infinity in later stages, but there aren't any puzzles where you enter the void to win. (There are a few where you have to throw blocks into the void though.)

[@greenbirdmusic7495]

@@Khaim.m aw, that woulda been really cool but its a mere block trashcan

[@secondslash587]

@@Khaim.m not exactly sure if the original commenter is referring to the void of infinity, but the way I interpreted it, I thought he was referring to the “level select screen” having meta shenanigans like what happens in Baba is You Does the game do that at some point?

I wonder if the final level will entail you doing every level in every world inside it, so that entire game itself is also inside itself.

[@doodamajiger]

This is a very trippy game to watch and I love it

[@tobysuren]

10:09 cool how the player enters the left world but then once you enter you end up in the right world...

[@redpepper74]

Oh god it’s not a splitting point

The illusion of choice

[@Kraken_0410]

I'm so glad I decided to buy and play the game for myself before watching these episodes. I can spend a solid hour on a level that takes you minutes... Tyler you are a puzzle wizard.

[@tessa-vdh]

I love the text based version, because it really shows how the recursion is happening

[@RoderickEtheria]

These worlds are getting bigger and bigger. No, they are getting smaller and smaller. They're bigger on the inside. No, they're smaller on the outside.

[@Bobqwt]

I'm loving this game!! Please keep uploading this!!

[@Axel-wo6qu]

Is cloning an where there's two instances of a reference to the same box? If so, I totally called it in the last episode.

[@redpepper74]

I was wondering whether that would be introduced sometime (this game has some ideas similar to Sam Hogan’s Game Inside a Game Inside a Game)

[@jackvortack3782]

i like how in every world, you are a diffent color, for example, last episode ended with the player pink, in this episode, it started with the player purple. i also like how each world is inside the previous world, and how each level is inside each world

[@RedWizard18]

I thought you missed a whole set of levels but no level "clone" is literally a clone in and of itself so it didn't matter which one you picked, I feel so dumb but good work man

[@JonMSanderson]

This is exactly why I love your channel bud. I'd never have known about this absolutely lovely game. You live a truly blessed life, and your existance improves the world, without a doubt. :)

[@orcana3567]

When you enter the left box at the end you actually go into the right box. 10:09

10:17 Tyler becomes a DJ

[@holeofdarn]

[@Stormer13]

I've been trying to stay ahead of Tyler and thought his uploads would catch up since I got stuck on a challenge level in the "Wall" world. However, today I finally got to the end game! There's some tough stuff coming up for this series, but it's such a great experience overall! I look forward to watching Tyler play through it and have his brain knotted by the later puzzles.

[@Big_Con]

Lovin this series

[@dozenDevil]

10:17 Tyler be like: "Woo woo woo woo woo".

[@drakesdrum1]

Have you heard of a game called Recursed? It's pretty similar to this, only the core gameplay is a 2d platformer rather than a block pusher - it came out in 2016, and the game involves you moving in and out of chests which are areas, and changing up how the areas link together. I think you'd dig it!

[@mkim1526]

Damn those text based puzzles confuse the hell outta me it's insane how you navigate through those with ease

[@nicreven]

I mean, it's the same game

[@PaulZeroSolis]

P for Patrick (the square with eyes), b for Box, 1, 2, 3 for the various layers of the level, everything else *is* level.

[@WowieZowie123]

this game hurts my brain more than calculus did

[@Green24152]

Oh boy. Gonna be fun seeing massive generalization of the player.

[@TXWatson]

Bought the game cuz I wanted to keep going past where you left off, & idk how much is editing, how much is the benefits of talking the problems out to yourself while you work on them, and how much is you just being a lot better at puzzle games than me, but Holy Shit you are So Much faster at figuring out the point than I am sometimes

[@PrestaPretzel]

It always feels so gratifying when i solve a puzzle before Tyler, who i view as the master of puzzles

[@pyritepanx]

This game is fantastic, can’t wait for the next episode

[@Jbesed]

When you play the game first to see how you solve it, then you watch it when Tyler does and realized he had different solutions that made it seem a lot easier ;-; Maybe it is because I am not understanding the game completely but who knows it is quite interesting to see

[@shigaraja]

im just waiting till someones mind breaks trying to comprehend this game.

[@herohalv4543]

dont think i didnt see patrick (?) enter both those worlds at once at the end

[@dhirajpallin2572]

Damn you solved that seemingly much quicker than me! and it was interesting to see sometimes the solutions were a bit different!

[@davideisenberg4735]

At about 6:32 stack all three of those to push against to make it work and only after he solved level that I realized that you literally can't do that lol. I'll get myself in so many difficult situations by playing this game. I'm going to have to do that sometime.

[@therabbithole5686]

So I have a question Why do aliens rock?

[@Muskar2]

My initial impression was that aliens is something people with ASD often describe themselves as, and thus if Tyler has ASD, he's waving a flag of pride for something that is sometimes stigmatized, but I don't know. I know that it's a very common question though, and that Tyler refuses to answer it these days.
