Self-Aware Game Mechanics - FUNKe Study

The amount of filler, jesus christ.

Shipwrecked 64 Plays with Dev hell it goooood and it took 3 years to make and it's worth it.

So how many games dox you

The second i find out if the world ima be popping off

This guy’s cool.

Don't think I didn't see that terminator reference at the end

Its nice to see someone else appreciated the Magic Circle, I enjoyed that game- I got so into it by the end that I had a whole game ploted out for the fictional studio to make (starting from the premise of making the game in an episodic manner to combat the worst of the Development Hell that was a cornerstone of the plot)

just play babdi

late, but we need more CRAIG !!!

WHAT IS SNOWGRAVE ROUTE, IS IT DELTARUNE?!

This has got to be the coolest informative video I've ever seen in my life. The writing, the animation, that gags and jokes, and especially the intro and outro.

I always come back to watch this video for these reasons. Never change Funke, never change.

There was some Shrek game where if you fell out of bounds, you'd load into a small easter egg map made out to be the insides of the game console.

This is emp lemon
Tell me I'm wrong

I actually buffered at the fake buffer.

New name messed with my brain

Babbdi.

Just love the void calling and translate in that motherfucker is saying it wrong my man made me laugh my ass of just for that

the magic circle reminds me of Hack 'n' Slash

technically "any%" comes from you not needing to go through the entire game, i.e. "100%"
so you can just skip sections if possible.

grey box testing is fun.
it's a game about you testing a game, and there are intentional bugs there.

I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO REMEMBER THE NAME OF THE MAGIC CIRCLE FOR MONTHS THANK YOU

Note: the note about any% is actually not what any% is
any% is the category where there are minimal restrictions, just use whatever you can to get to the goal fastest.
The note actually better describes low%, where you must do the absolute minimum to beat the game.

I LOVED The Magic Circle. It's fantastic, you should play it, you should play it ASAP

i like the T2 thumbs up at the end

I did wanna chip in the mention of the game Anodyne. Even if it's not too similar to the rest of the games in terms of intentional "glitches" it does intentionally allow you a tool to break out of bounds after you beat the game. It's kind of a neat way of giving an experience to a player and then letting them rip it apart to see what's underneath. They even added a secret debug area. I spent more time than I probably should have trying to see everything it had to offer.

even if it’s mention was in the list of examples, ut/dr is like a must

Hello

Your little musical outros make me so happy man :)

i know im not the only one wondering what it is he considers a slur at the beginning of the video because its the most replayed spot in the video. i cant understand what he said. what did he say? im dying here i looked at the comments and no one is saying anything about it.

“Self aware gay mechanics” is what I read.

God, i love your animation style

Ok I’m really curious what’s the word you consider a slur?(just want to know) any brave soul wanna tell me what it is?
Edit: never mind I think I know now

Magic Circle’s narrator sounding a lot like Belethor from skyrim is…oddly fitting

I DAMN WELL THOUGHT HE WOULD SAY WELCOME TO CITY 17 AT THE START

White people when they make their 10th essay in a week

As miyamoto once said,

"Games and life are mysteries,


Just like the disappearance of your father."
