PSX Longplay [136] Skullmonkeys

[@SamanthaPortUkulele]

I like how Klaymen's first reaction to being randomly shot into space is to take pictures.

[@unfa00]

I thought there's gonna be a picture gallery in the end.

[@unfa00]

Tobiasz Karoń YES! There is one, during the end credits! :D

[@konkelberryfinn]

They still try hard, they have tried hard before your comment. Garbage. Also 53 robots.

[@annamous5991]

I think about this topic SO often. Unfortunately for the past decade we seem to be stuck in the “graphics wars” gamers only give a fuck if their games are “pretty” anymore. Doesn’t have to be good, doesn’t have to have a great storyline, doesn’t even have to be hard. As long as it “looks pretty” and realistic. I’ve noticed whenever companies are brave enough to make games outside the norm they get shit on anymore

[@mabssagarino9713]

They didn't have the tools we have today and hence that made creative choices better.

This game is soooooo criminally underated but I'm glad I'm one of the few worthy to know of this gem and The Neverhood, Doug TenNapel deserves to be remembered amongst Miyamoto and Kojima

[@masterdrewt6698]

I don’t blame you. It’s criminally underrated that nobody has ever made sprite sheets out of Klaymen and it’s really sad

[@DJTechno94]

This is the game I played with my friend at the age of 7. I remembered it clearly because one of the teachers came towards the tv in panic and switched to the news channel. There we saw the twin towers.

[@stupid2144]

wow that's ironic lol.

[@cawareyoudoin7379]

Well... That's a story alright...

[@Mike14264]

I was born a few days after the Twin Towers Attack. My mom was terrified at the moment.

Very creative game and great quirky soundtrack. Takes a hell of an imagination to come up with something like this. I do miss playing this game.

[@72kbobert]

This was one of my favorite games ever.

[@HelloSirHowCanIScamYouToday]

This and oddworld were my all time childhood games

[@joanotero14]

Visual masterpiece . A little expressionist, a little steampunk. Dynamic, fun, creative . 1998! :O So underrated!!!

[@blyjd91]

I wish games today would take some risks, like these games did.

[@RubenGoMoRadioboyPlus]

GunvorPlays This was the total opposite of risky in its days.

[@blyjd91]

Rubén Gómez Radioboy Well, nowadays people just makes CoD and Battlefield over and over again. Also, FIFA. Back in the day you would sometimes see weird games that tried something different, like this and the Oddworld games for example.

[@RubenGoMoRadioboyPlus]

GunvorPlays No. There are almost 10 companies that risk this days. Oddworld and this were mainstream in their time. Stay focused.

[@blyjd91]

Rubén Gómez Radioboy I can't remember Oddworld ever being mainstream. I'm speaking from experience of course since I was a kid when the Abe's Odyssey came out and it always intrigued me. Mainstream around that time for me were more the likes of Crash Bandicoot and Spyro.

[@RubenGoMoRadioboyPlus]

GunvorPlays There you are confusing kids-oriented with mainstream.

[@Killbana]

been trying to remember this game for years and i finally found it!

[@lukawalli]

it's the first and only game, that made me break a controller in anger. my thumb felt broken and numb after trying that last level for the 200th time. never completed it.

[@kensuke0]

I'm on emulation and I can''t fathom fucking playing this game on a regular console.

[@Mike14264]

Yeah... The controls are weird... Klaymen feels always too fast, there's no momentum for his movement. Even when he jumps, his movement in mid-air feels like it's too fast.

[@fatbroccoli8]

He wanted us to listen to the music I guess.

impressive you beat the whole game without a single death

[@cannon9009]

Thats not impressive Beating every The Impossible Game in the series in a row without any deaths and in at least 3 hours. Now that is impressive. Maybe. Maybe lower that time limit.

[@necromancerking640]

Cannon's Blockhouse are you saying you can beat Ghosts´n´Goblins in less then 2 hours and without any death?

[@julesgamergourmand]

Yes PSX ! Skullmonkeys is my favorite 2D game on Playstation. It's amazing that the game is so little known, it's great. On the other hand, I am happy to know a game that few know. I had bought the new game a little before the release of Playstation 2, it was not expensive but nobody wanted it because the future was Playstation 2, 3D, DVD. I don't regret having bought it and carefully preserved it, it is still in new condition.

Best soundtrack ever!

[@BrunoTheViking]

As a kid I had loads of fun with this game, but sometimes it was so confusing... backtracking levels and not knowing which ball to enter at the end of levels was tough! Thanks for the longplay, as I can see how the game ends :P

[@TrisketsCheese]

Oh my gosh! The invisible video game friend song cracked me up, I can't wait for Armikrog.

[@cannon9009]

Armikrog will be great.

[@TrisketsCheese]

***** Yeah, but I still admire it for it's creativity (music, animation, setting, designs). I hope that keep making stories in this universe. But they do need better writers, there was heart to the script. In fact I was more interested in the backstory written on the walls than the main campaign. It's a damn shame. I still liked it though. I consider it a guilty pleasure, like clown porn- wait, what?

[@komentatorzadruge1950]

armikrog is great

[@tacticalnewfie2922]

Never heard of this game before, Armikrog brought me here... This looks sweet!

[@ThatWeirdDude40]

That's a rare one. Someone whom actually CAN play this game. It's so nice to see someone at it whom knows what he has to do. Game'S actually a tad more difficult than it looks like.

[@kirkadurka7152]

I havent played this game in years, glad I remebered it.

[@vvlvmusic]

i LOVED that game, even got the soundtrack floating around somewhere, because i really liked those whacky tunes a lot, the stop motion sequences were genius... and the game itself wasn't too shabby either ;))

[@pointybits6496]

I remember playing the intro over and over and over and over till I finally got to the actual game. And then I played this game till the disc got too scratched from my crappy ps one lmao good times

[@Mike14264]

The main gripe with this game is how fast Klaymen moves when he jumps. I dunno, I think you feel it more in the first few stages, where your brain still assumes that, after a jump, your movement in mid-air is slower than while running, but the thing is, it isn't. There is usually some acceleration and momentum, but here, there's no acceleration, Klaymen always moves at the speed he either walks or runs, and that makes precise jumps more difficult, especially when you want to land on a fast moving platform or enemy. Other than that, the game seems to be a treat! Spectacular cutscenes and music, great art direction, the Level themes can get real creative and, while the bosses are criminally easy and there isn't that much variety in terms of platforming elements or gimmicks, there's still enough to keep you interested, like the floating snowballs, timed platforms, shrinking hearts and enlarging chevrons, glidey birds and air streams, lift beams, climbable vines, platforms on rails and hologram platforms, as well as the Amazing Drivy Finn and the Incredible Drivy Runn, which occasionally spice up the experience.

so sad Klaymen is floating forever in space...

[@notinmyworld8239]

I wonder what new adventure he'll get himself into, if the creators are in the mood to continue where Kleyman left off to

[@sztorm68]

@@notinmyworld8239 I came here after 3 years to watch all the cutscenes from the Neverhood and remind myself of my favourite game of my childhood and I found an old Doug Tennapel comic titled "Klato". You can find it on The Neverhood Wiki. Basically it a klaymen-ish character that says he is the grandson of Klayman and he wants to be a hero like his grandpa was (and he cuts his arm with his sword by accident). So it confirms the fact that Klaymen survived and maybe got back to the Neverhood. I guess Hoborg found him/teleported him. Considering how Armikrog turned out I don't think Doug has a plan for a game like TNH, sadly.

[@ronaldotrevino152]

So I couldn't find this game for the longest time. I had forgotten what it was called and only had memories of the gameplay but nothing else. So today I went on google for hrs and I finally found it. This is a game me and my brother grew up on!! I'm so glad I was able to find the title!!!!
