With Ellen demonstrating absolute mastery of beat saber, I think it is clear that you two owe us a co-op lets play. prove your skills to Hand Dog!

[@ffwng3992]

It looked like there's going to be slots for at least 4 players. I really want to see the entire gang playing together like the Gang Beasts/Party Animals streams.

[@Chris_Sizemore]

@@ffwng3992 4 players? New Years stream with the whole OX crew at the Loading Bar. Highest Score gets to be commentator next round! Also winner gets to order snakes and drinks for other players.

[@warpstorm1988]

I have absolutely no clue what the hell just happened but I know that I enjoyed whatever it was immensely 😂

[@Zenlore6499]

Doc, give it to me straight. “You got Hand Dog.” *OH MY DOG…*

[@mintyr9368]

🎵You ain't nothing but a hand dog 🎵

[@nonspiderweb]

🎵traumatizing all the time!🎵

[@Amaritudine]

You're the hand now dog!

[@LikeSuicide]

Omg 17:34 Zig eats star dust

[@MsKornkitty]

I love weird games and rhythm games. This one goes straight on the wishlist.

[@DodderingOldMan]

Heh, same. I started downloading the demo within 30 seconds of them saying there was a demo available :P

[@Ctrl_alt_em]

Hand Dog gets more terrifying the longer I look at it.

[@Kolyarut]

Wasn't sure what to make of this at first, it took a little bit to attune to its wavelength, but that was really, really fun! Charming, funny and actually pretty good music. What's Handdog? Not much, what's hand with you?

[@callumdonington2227]

I hope your credit score goes down because of this

[@juuy2223]

This game is so clever and different and cute! What a gem, I hope it does well when it comes out

[@sabretoo]

"Did you steal a donut and blame another" = book of mormon musical reference haha

[@P3x310]

Oh no, my therapist promised me Hand Dog wasn't real and it couldn't hurt me, *yet here it is!!!*

[@rivierakid63087]

Me, before the video: A rhythm action game? In this, the year of our lord 2023? Me, after the video: I NEED THIS GAME RIGHT NOW

[@TheJakeJackson]

Are you saying you *didn't* hear about Hifi Rush this year?

[@MrFutago87]

In the words of Elvis "YOU AIN'T NOTHING BUT A HAND DOG!"

[@mattwhite3068]

Normally listening to you guys while I'm doing chores doesn't result in me dancing around like a lunatic, but here we are.

[@CrimBlack]

I like in hand-dog's song, picking up the yellow bubbles gives a "£" sign. Very British. Lord Londo Cainhurst and Lady Priscilla Lumenflower would approve. Also, the yellow bubbles appear when the correct notes are played (and purple ones when you don't, I imagine)!

[@handleofadam]

PLEASE full play this when it comes out

[@azk5811]

17:35 kind of surprised neither of them picked up on "Zig eats star dust"

[@diggsywastaken]

17:32 Trevor moves out of the way and says that "you can keep the stars, Zig only eats their dust." Ziggy Stardust reference?

[@rasmusn.e.m1064]

This game has straight-up Show of the Weekend humour. That was a lot of fun!

[@TyrGUN]

The froggy ritual song is my favorite so far! I love this game already.

[@JinglyBeans]

Never had sponsored content for quite so well! That was SO much fun to watch. Please try a full playthrough once this comes out! ❤

[@billthebodyguy]

I really hope we get a 3 player co-op stream. It would be the best kind of unmitigated chaos!

[@daniellockley-smith9766]

Please do a full two player lets play of this madness

[@konrad_m_rataj]

I'm always very reserved when it comes to sponsored content, but this one is straight up banger. I'm buying it and playing coop with friends, it's amazing! Even the hand dog? ESPECIALLY THE HAND DOG!

[@AdamusPrime24]

Hand Dog: The OFFICIAL start of HalloStream! XD

[@FirebladesSong]

I want the OST of this game. I'm rubbish at rhythm action but the music is a bop.

[@barbararowley6077]

Me too! I’m rewatching it and still have the ritual music stuck in my head from the first watch. I can’t even clap in time, but really want the music!

[@TheJakeJackson]

It's easy enough to find if you want, it's all just royalty free music from the Audio Jungle and Getty Images music library

[@burgermike92]

This was awesome! Ellen going "Everybody!" during the ritual song was hilarious. Also both of you guy's reaction to hand dog was priceless. Might have to pick this game up if I get the chance.

[@zendroidy]

How can anything be so unhinged and wholesome at once? I'll take two, please!

[@WickedRibbon]

2 minutes in, and it's clear I need to play this 😄🎵

[@HinaVelvet]

'Zig only eats their dust.' 😳 Am suprised they didn't get that referance 😂⚡

[@Twiganut]

Well that Wiggly-with-your-ziggle song will live with me for the rest of time

[@deannal.newton9772]

I like the song "I Got Money" it's really catchy and true to life.

[@defweed6671]

What a beautiful Game. Niveau Graphics, lovely little Birb and awesome Music. Definitly in my Wishlist.

[@lenarmangum8630]

This game actually supports co-op multiplayer so, instead of one person doing all of the multitasking and trying to play the music and move the obstructions, another person could’ve moved the objects while another plays the music! Y’all could’ve cooperated together!

[@mdgeisto8953]

They've definitely delivered on the "Super Crazy" in the game's title 🤯

[@nromdotcom]

This game looks massively charming and I hope to be able to buy the OST at some point.

[@AmberFrmThVault]

I would watch Luke and Ellen play a shocking amount of this. 😂

[@MrGibsonian]

We need a full lets play!

[@whachikan]

Wow, dark offerings and Hand-dog? This should officially by a Hollow-Stream video.

[@o.k.productions5202]

Did not expect to watch this entire video, I like the beats too much.

[@user-hs1xb9tv6e]

This game is so bizzare but still so charming. Also the music is honestly not bad.

[@legomanfan7777]

This looks perfect, Ty for bringing this to us!

[@Somedaysoon111]

Absolutely incredible scenes. I’m so going to buy this

[@Michael_Lindell]

9:50 Out-sad Egg-stra?

[@Amaranthyne]

Full play through please!

[@johnsansker7064]

Bonus points to the devs if they send off a Hand Dog plushie to you.

[@crankycat3026]

I'm blown away by how amazing the music was!

[@BandFairy]

I literally just went and pre-ordered this on switch because of you guys. All of those songs are fucking bangers. Shame about hand dog, though.

[@Wolfiyeethegranddukecerberus17]

This is one of the most unique AAA games since Mario Wonder or Rayman Legends, I love it.

[@Dead-EyeJuncan]

I hardly think they spent 50 mil plus on this. Seems more like an indie game to me. Looks very fun tho!

[@Dead-EyeJuncan]

In fact it is this studio's very first game by the look of it, so I hope it does well for them!

[@holyrod2001]

That was one smooth jailbird

[@MrMessyy]

This was an unbelievably charming video 😁

[@clairewoods1858]

Rhythm actions back baby! Boy I’ve missed it!

[@thejason755]

That song at the 14:23 mark is “gold” by lizzy Ashliegh.

[@zacharysmith4856]

Excellent. No notes. If anyone thinks I wasn’t waving my phone in the air when Ellen was singing along, they are wrong.

[@segagirladventurespico]

Just saw this on sale at GameStop I love the piano at the start 😊

[@Beatle4sale]

Always so happy when we get a new episode with Ellen and Luke

[@heidicontrol]

More of this when it releases please!!

[@kieranclarges2514]

There is nothing worse that listening to someone try to sing along to a tune they don't know!!!!

[@thejason755]

I think i’m actually just stoned enough to consume this game. 10/10 will play if it comes to xbox

[@StayNPlayGames]

Don't worry, Luke, Hand Dog isn't real. It can't hurt you. Probably.

[@roo15]

Secure the bag 🎉 but also genuinely this looks quite fun

[@Monkeyzforever]

In case it helps you get future deals I'll let you know that the second I finished this video I preordered the game because it looks so so so fun I love rhythm action 😍

[@Deloseth]

Realllllllyyyyy wanna see y'all play this two player once it launches!

[@katrinatam2714]

We DEMAND Luke and Ellen play this two player co-op!!!

[@AngelBeatYunara]

What in the flying Caria Manor is the Hand Dog? Dang!

[@DanCarnellious]

I thought this looked cool when I first saw it but this was a fantastic look. The music is amazing so far and it looks very fun. I've wanted a rhythm game for a while but other offerings have felt too boring or that the notes don't actually match the music, so this looks to fix all of that😅

[@sebastianwlodarczyk]

This game looks weird. I like it:D Nice spin on the rhythm action, odd sense of humour- definitely going to play the demo later!

[@supergoat94]

I rarely watch the full video when it's sponsored, it usually feels a bit forced. But this one kept me engaged. This game isn't for me, but I truly enjoyed watching you two play it.

[@theforgottenstorytellers8763]

Please play this again when it comes out!!!!

[@Kokuei7]

This is the best thing I've ever seen.

[@TransmitHim]

Hand Dog is the character find of 2023.

[@shocking_squirrel]

This was amazing!!!

[@rodrigocampos1302]

This looks great. We need more rhythm games

[@bobbyfernando]

This comment is *not* sponsored; this game just genuinely looks like a delight, and I'll have to hold off on finishing the video, because I've gotta try the demo myself. Thanks for bringing this to my attention!

[@DeadmanWL]

I have no idea what I just watched...but for the love of all things unholy... we need more Hand Dog.

[@barbararowley6077]

This is charmingly super crazy! Very well named.

[@TheJakeJackson]

This game looks absolutely adorable but they definitely didn't hire any musicians directly. That soundtrack is from a royalty-free stock music library, which feels like a missed opportunity. Budget constraints I guess!

[@TheJakeJackson]

Yeah, from Audio Jungle and Getty Images now that I read the credits.

[@zerin25]

This music is banging

[@leafandryly]

I've watched this video a couple of times now while I'm basically unemployed and I really like the music in the game. Kinda want to play it just for that

[@johnnyt7067]

Games are back! In rhythm form.

[@thepyrokitten]

This is sickeningly adorable.

[@abydosianchulac2]

Music was odd but engaging, that's almost all I'd need. But the absurd humor sealed it for me (the bagpipes playing out of time over the heavy synth in the eggplant room killed me).

[@donaldgow6673]

Not much, dog, what's hand with you?

[@Eudemon0013]

As person who dreads these kinds of games, even though I produce music, this video makes me want to get this game. It's like a mash of Conker's Bad Fur Day and Rockband.

[@danmoar94]

I love Luke's Joe Lycett impression 😂

[@zanite8650]

I love how every time Luke says "Easy!" the game immediately punishes him.

[@PAannouncement]

This is so wholesome I love it

[@the1truemoggy]

I'm commenting on this video so I know I wasn't just having a flashback. EVERYBODY! LA LA LAAAAA LAA LAA LA LA LAAAAA LAA LAA

[@ginger_cryptid]

"You got hand dog!" is a distinctly normal sentence, I don't see the issue

[@Y2KK94]

Luke, you did the best you could in hard mode in a blind play though.

[@travisspaulding5835]

As someone who wanted to like Hi Fi Rush, but couldn’t ever really get into it…this looks a bit more my jam

[@359339]

Could watch you two play the whole game

[@KrazyKirby07]

Trumpets also have slides, it's not just trombones

[@fw2231]

but unless you have a slide trumpet / soprano trombone, they only have tuning slides which aren't very exciting.

[@phyllissmith9426]

Now if they just had a blaster option to get rid of the hand dog. And one for all the dirty minds thinking "hand (something else entirely). Oh and You woke my mom again...oh well. Thanks for the fun.

[@joethanks8479]

I am not immune to hand dog

[@Giga-lemesh]

Luke being immediately punished for his Hubris

[@KrazyKirby07]

He can't help you play any notes, he can only egg you on.

[@echoanimates3141]

going on my Wishlist

[@ChrisPreece]

So when these sponsored things come in is it like directed to one team or other in the sponsorship request? Or do OxBox get the game in and go 'well this is some weird cutesy surrealist nonsense with a dark undertone, give that one to Luke and Ellen, they thrive on that sort of thing.'

[@michaelbradley3988]

Luke’s voiceover sounds like the riddle imp got a gig reading wartime news reels
