Playdate: Noctropolis (03/24/2017)

Been waiting for this.

Glad they came back to this. The first part was amazing/terrible.

[sob]

Alex dropping the hot Lebowski quote

yesssssssssssss

This game is a beautiful mess, i'm happy to see this continue <3

Vinny, did Fast Five teach you nothing? You have to drift to get past the camera in time :p

Wow, look at that blatant Twin Peaks reference with the doddering old man rescuing you. He even has the bowtie.

Love me some FMVinny.

Awwww yiss!

The best damn recurring feature that isn't officially a recurring feature.

Bought this off GOG's sale after the last playdate. Glad they're back at it.

YESSS

You know, I'm gonna say this...Noctropolis is better than Mega Man.

I am here. I am awake, sort of.

Yay they brought it back!

YES!!!! so glad they came back to this!!!!! just made my saturday morning!

Tubas.

As a neutral third party I can say that Dan's Alex impression was impeccable.

Really nice to see you came back to this game. It's the best worst thing.

I was worried you guys weren't going to come back to this.

nice system of a down reference

Wooh Random PC Games!

So close to the evil doctor. Looking forward to the next one.

This is not a good bad game, it's a bad bad game.

Please continue with Toonstruck?

UGH, I think that lighthouse bullshit really put them off this game. And with good reason.

I'd love to see it continue, but with more sequences like that, I could EASILY see why they wouldn't. That's just awful game design.

Somehow, I want to see this finished. The game started boring but the silly early 90's feel becomes captivating to watch.

Dan continuing to say "Tofat" instead of Top Hat is a troll, right?

I think this is the third "Mature" FMV adventure game that has used that stupid hooting MIDI sound effect. I wonder if there's some kind of story behind it? It's almost like like the Wilhelm Scream of 90s adventures.

Man, Alex seems to be finding this pretty stressful.

@arsenalfan: I'm pretty sure 90% of the things that come out of Dans mouth are trolls, probably on a subconscious level at this point.

In this episode alone you found and immediately discarded TWO screwdrivers. This game is great!

And you threatened the "young teens" after giving them a bunch of knives. Smart move. XD

This seems like a real bad game. Lotta fun to watch though.

Love watching this!!! Enjoy them talking over this game! So much fun!

I love how obvious it is the people who made this game just wanted to make a Batman game.

damn this game sucks

"My jerryboy"

I feel like that while I'm sure they realize the game isn't that great, the bloom is off the rose. They kinda felt exasperated by the game at this point. Understandably so, since it's super clunky and written by a person who just discovered adverbs and adjectives.

That's some master sausage grabbing

Man the Beast crew has been killing it with the laughs. Between this and Beast in the East I greatly look forward to their playthroughs of games.

Dan waits until he lives in Light Pollution Central to take up an interest in star gazing... Not when he lived in Kansas or Minnesota.

It looks horrendous to play but you guys are still managing to make it very entertaining. Also, I think the writer might be trying to build some sorta adjective combo meter each time he describes something.

My parents always brought home new pc games from a computer games store in the miday 90s and one day brought me this game. I had no idea wtf it was so hard without guides for a teenager. We had Internet but there wasn't anything for this game and I got stuck. They also bought me command and conquer and warrant on the same christmas. It was great playing basically every good pc game since 1992 when I got my first computer. I've owned about 8 computers in my life since then aND this makes me nostalgic for old school adventure games.

I don't think tell tale has done adventure games service since original LucasArts games like Indiana Jones and the fate of atlanfis, Sam n max hit the road, day of the tentical, full throttle were some of the best adventure games ever. I really liked longest journey but never finished any of them despite owning all and dream fall.

What do I do with my sausage? Vinny 2017 - ok Vinny since you had kids I didn't think I was going to have to explain this to you ... did your wife tell you the stork brought the kids?? No matter so when two adults love each other the one with a sausage....

i man-love dan

dude you get some amazing night skies in texas, like seeing the milky way spiral arm, there's a reason why the stars at night are big and bright

It's a real shame that the gameplay took such a nosedive, I would've love to have seen how this dumbass storyline played out. But I also completely understand why ya'll stopped, this borders on unplayable at points.

Here is me still hoping they will return to this. Saves are probably long gone by now.
