DarkfalzX's is a wonderful pixel artist. As for the game's actual gameplay, I played the demo and really could not get into playing it at all.

Also, I need to go check out Experiment 12 now...

Yup, Experiment 12 looks really trippy and really freaky.

Experiment 12 looks fascinating. Be Good looks like hot garbage- but a very interesting concept there.

Patrick, you're great and everything, but how is it possible that every video you post has the worst audio mix ever. You're too quiet. Game's too loud.

Thanks for covering these @patrickklepek, some of them could definitely use the exposure. And I agree, coverage of lesser known games like this is quickly becoming some of my favorite GB content.

You know i have to say i'm really enjoying the new features from Scoops, glad to see he didn't fall into the cracks moving away from the crew.

Keep up the good work Patrick and good day to you sir! :)

I'm super interested in Experiment 12.

I'm really not interested in that Be Good guitar tone.

Legend of Iya is SO mid-lifecycle PS1 game. It looks pretty neat!

Anybody find a way to play it on osx?

EDIT- Seems like the news is that a mac version will be coming "soonish". That's awesome news.

@patrickklepek I fully endorse naps. If it's good enough for babies and old people, it's good enough for me.

Excellent coverage as always, downloading Experiment 12 and Be Good as I type this.

I DO feel the need to be that asshole and point out that it's Jasper "BURN", not Jasper "BRINE." Sorry, but I think I winced when you did it a second time, haha. Regardless, keep up the great work!

I am also not into naps. They screw up my sleep schedule to much.

Really enjoying experiment 12, just finished chapter 6 and let me tell you, it's of one the most infuriating things ever, but quite an awesome thing once you get it.

I liked the first two chapters of Experiment 12 but it lost me after that. Especially the really weird anti-government "Grow your own food" one.

There is a fine line between pretentious bullshit and art and I think Be Good and Experiment 12 is a good example of both sides. Be Good had an interesting idea I suppose but came off as total nonsense and that guitar was overbearing. Funny credits though. Experiment 12 looked really interesting and I am guessing that the games are trying to convey an abstract take on being in a fever dream. I would love to see more of that

Iya reminds me of Jenna, but the dustclouds need to be behind the sprite.

Be Good's creator must be shitting his pants at being in a Giant Bomb feature ( maybe he already has? Haven't checked the rest of the comments).

I might have to check the rest of E12 for myself, game seemed legitimately really interesting. That second chapter was really fucking unsettling.

I was sitting here worried I've been saying David Byrne the wrong way, so I at least appreciate you pointing out

Legend of Iya looks to have promising potential, it would be good if it uses a 16 bit retro audio track sombre in tone to go with the setting.

Describing "Be Good" as amateur hour Neverhood sounds about right, even down to the jazzy soundtrack.

lolz. the developer of "the legend of iya" might as well took the money and ran. he hasn't released the game yet. i mean i understand hes practically the only one working on it but from what i've read hes been working on this for a really really really long time and i doubt he'll ever finish it. its funny because Patrick mentioned in the video above about said developer that , "i'm not one of those guys who just trying to take your money and run". anyways i lold.
