COBB CAN MOVE. | Transcript:

Oh, I saw Cobb. Oh, there he is. Okay, so it's not a line of sight thing. How was that hiding from me? How the hell was that hiding from me this whole time? How have I not seen that? I think I know the gimmick of this, but I'm just going to let it all on unfold as it should. I shouldn't go into the fire. I'm going to let it all play out. All right. Level two. Cobb can yep.

Cobb can move. Cobb can hear. I see. Good thing I have this. That's an open. I don't think that was there before. Huh. That'll do it. That'll save me. Now I just need four coal. Easy. Just got to stage that there. I don't need to get it all just yet. But this might be a little What? The What is that? I don't know what's going on with that. That's disturbing. If I touch that, is that bad? Okay, so I can only hear Eee. Okay, it's a wall.

I knew that. Okay, there's another one over there. Eee. Okay, so the good thing is I don't need to do much other than just Okay, this is good. Oh god. Does this hurt me? No, it's just weird. Good. So I just need to get it on the belt and then I'm good to go for anything else. And then I left one up here, not that it matters which one I go for, when I staged or whatever else I get, but it was up here. So I might as well. Okay. I get a funny feeling this is going to become very stressful if I've got five more levels after this with more abilities cuz I don't think I have that many senses.

Cop can move. Cop can see. Cop can smell. Am I malodors? Flip breakers. What do you mean flip breakers? Stinky breakers? I got to flip the stinky That's going to exude stink all over this place. There's something down over this way. In the dark. Breaker? Anybody seen a breaker? That's a breaker, all right. What do you smell? Did I fart? What happened? Whoa! [screaming] Whoa! Go over there. Oh, [__] I threw that right in front of me. Oh god. Go in the fire. Oh my god, this is awful. Oh, it's a dead end. Oh, you'll never get me. I'LL FIGHT TO THE LAST. JUKE YOU.

[snorts] OH, GOOD. OKAY, I GET TO CONTINUE. OKAY, that's good. All right, so I'm not sure what to do. I tried to throw the rock, but I can starve. Wait, no, that's different. That's not what you said. That's a different That's a whole different thing. Wait, what do you mean I can starve? That's That's not what that was. He's going to hear me eat. That seems concerning. I don't think I need to eat this much fiber is going to make me fart for sure. He's going to smell that all over me.

He's going to be all over me. Oh my god, I'm like a Epona. You don't remember Epona? How do I drop this? Can I drop this? Oh, [__] it. What is that? The tree? What is that? God, he's sniffing. Didn't mean to throw that. Okay, so when you pick up a rock, it's going to throw it no matter what. It's dark over here. But it's a nice alcove. He might not be able to smell me from here. This is a bad idea being stuck in this corner over here, isn't it? But that was a bad time to move. Why would I do

that? Oh, [__] Don't smell this. So I could get away. I did get away. That's good to know. Oh my god. Huh. Carrot in the dark. Dark carrot. Carrot of darkness. I see you up this. It'll get there eventually. Oh, there it is. Did I get enough coal? I think I did. I think I sent enough coal on the way up, right? Didn't I? Did I not? Oh, freak,

Oh, there it is. That's it. Bong. I win. Pop can move here, smell, I can starve. Okay, well, this is okay. Because this is the same that I had before. I don't know why I was punished But this is exactly the same deal, so not a big deal here. And there's one right here. All right. Whoa, whoa, whoa, what the No, why would you come to me? Whoo, [__] Whoo, why would you come to me? Whoa, [__] What's this? Get tricked. Fool. I shouldn't eat all of those. I should save some for me to have later. But I'm not very smart. No, I'm very smart. I'm just not very efficient.

This would be a bad dead end to get caught in. Whoo, [__] Whoo, [__] I saw teeth in the darkness. Man, I'm not seeing this other breaker, wherever it might be. Try to go around a little bit. Up, there it is. Okay, that's bad. Oh, [__] Where did he come from? Oh god. No, this is a bad idea. This is a bad idea. Why did I do this? No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO. WHY WOULD YOU OH, WHY?

I feel like wasn't very fair. Cop can reach. At least he can't smell. Don't know what that means, but hey. I've had bigger worries in my life. Okay, at least this loops around. That's nice. Sneak it right by. Snuck. Fool. Wish I could pick up with something other than E. Okay, I got the two breakers already. All I need to do is get what I need. The coal. That's what I need. Get that end down there. I saw a lot of coal. I just passed it by because I was on the way to do other things. Very important business. You don't need to ask. Here we go.

Basically done. Now we can just hide out. Live life. Relax. We've won. [groaning] Cop can move. See dude, we're playing woo. One of these things is not like the other. One of these things just doesn't belong, you know, the five senses. Touch, taste, sight, smell, hear. Duplicate. Reproduction. Oh my god. They're going to demonetize me. Cop's going to demon- Cop can demonetize. We got three breakers.

I don't know which direction he's coming from. This was a bad idea. Oh, freak. Oh my god. THE RAGE. THE rage accelerate with THE CONVEYOR BELT. What does that even mean? Do I got to stay by the fire? Oh my god, I got to stay by the fire. Holy [__] Okay, I'm good if I have a candle. That's all right. Holy [__] They're all around me. They are literally all around me. They are all around me. Oh my god. Oh, [__] No. Oh my god.

Got it. No, I'm going for it. Going it away. Oh, yeah. Super speed. Why didn't I go this fast before? I feel like I was going exactly that fast and it did not get me expeditiously like that just did. I think there's just two of them. I believe. This is a freaking dead end if ever there were Why didn't I grab that rock? Why didn't I grab the rock? Oh, freak. Why didn't I grab the rock? [__] I am going to freeze. What the [__] I am going TO WHAT THE [__] NO.

IT'S THE DARKNESS. How can YOU EVEN OH. ALL RIGHT, FINE. This is going to be a little difficult, guys. Pick it Pick up with like Move here, freeze, starve, see. Okay. Well, that's at least that's not duplicate. I can hit with enter. Yes, I can hit enter to do that. Okay, that's better. It's fine. Why does it feel like it's getting closer? Why? Why would this be the thing. Whoa. What the [__] Oh, not in front of me. Oh, [__] me. Oh my god.

WHAT IS THIS GUY'S DEAL? [screaming] I MUST BE STINKY OR SOMETHING. I MUST smell real bad. I don't know why he was like never All right, that's fine. I wonder if the smelling is like he can smell where I've been and that has an impact. Oh my god, I'm going to freeze. [groaning] Just basically got all of my needed coal right here. I did stage some up higher. So, that is a possibility for me to get. I'll worry about that later. I think that actually was pretty much most of it. Okay. That going right and up. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

It sounds like you're approaching my location. I'm not sure how much more I need, but it can't be that much more. No. Okay, that's got to be all of it. Or at least there's got to be one more coming down that way. Oh, come on, really? I didn't get all the I think I feel like I was doing pretty good on the coal train and Oh, there it is. Again, sounds like you're coming after me and I'd say that's a ridiculous notion. No, no, no. It's a ridiculous notion. I SHOULD HAVE ALL THE COAL THERE, but I don't. Oh, [__] Frick. Okay, I just got to do a heroic move. [__] me. Okay, he's just coming after me without relent. So, probably what I need to do [__] It's just I need to grab a coal wherever I can find one, but I can't find one cuz

they're all There's one. OH, [__] OH, NO. I WAS SO CLOSE. YEEHAW. [screaming] GET IN. I DID IT. GOD DAMN IT. GAME DEVELOPER, CLEARLY THIS IS broken if it can't recognize my skill like that. So, once the last I think it's when the last breaker is done. He's like guns for you. So, I'm pretty sure I just don't do that. I thought I got more. I could have sworn. And I know I stored some off to the right over there, and it's really foolish of me to do that as thus as I did, but you know, it's you don't have a choice. I mean, I have a choice. I just didn't want to or I forgot about it. Whatever. It's all the same. Oh my god, I'm going to freeze.

Don't do it. You're not coming right this way, are you? Oh my god, you are. No, follow the sound of the thing. Oh, [__] Wait, he Oh, he was goofed. He got goofed for a second there. So, he let go after a ways. I can do that already. [__] Ah, I didn't do that, right? Well, now he's just really confused, I think. He's just stomping around. But once again, I feel like I've gotten more coal than this, and yet here I am without the coal. [__] Oh, there's more coal. So, I did get more coal. But not enough. I wouldn't have thought it would be this hard to get all the

coal, but you know, for some reason I'm having a little trouble with it. This should be good. I don't know where he is. Okay. I where one of the breakers is. Just checking the bottom here. Okay, so it's also got to be on the bottom right side of things. Oh, freak. Nope, not today. No, I threw a rock. What do you mean you're still after me? What the hell? Wait, no. [screaming] No.

WHY? WHY CAN YOU GO THROUGH WALLS? IT'S not fair. Maybe I hit a time limit and he's like, "Well, this guy is never going to get it." Maybe it's cuz I got all the coal in there. It might actually be that. Like if you get both the coal Oh, [__] Oh, [__] he's a dead end. Oh, freak. Oh, look at that sound. Hide in the dark. I don't think that works if he can smell. Ah, [__] God, he's got the five infinity stones. All right, so we got to time it up. It's It's It has to be unified, the time.

Right? At least I can't freeze anymore. That's nice. So, I got to I can't let it be seven of one or the other because then he goes into enraged mode. Two. This will be three. Oh, [__] GO, [__] OH MY GOODNESS. UH, WELL, there's two of those right there. That's good to know. Okay, I feel like Okay, maybe I'm just not doing this right. That's it. Feel like I break line of sight and I don't know, something. All right, I'll get it. I got this. I got this, guys. Don't worry. I got this.

Is it because I'm running with a candle? That's what it is, isn't it? It's because I'm running with a candle. So, I'M LITERALLY LIKE, "AH, HERE I AM!" OH! IS THAT WHAT IT IS? I THINK THAT MIGHT be what it is. Oh, [__] I'm running with a candle again. Nope. Can't see me. Yeah, but that's because I was literally running with a candle. And I'm questioning like, "Why How is he still following me? It's impossible to know. There's no way to explain these circumstances." Oh god, I need a food. Oh, [__] God, I need food. I need food so bad.

Thank you. I'm going to freeze I need light so bad. I know he's going to chase me, but I just need it for a little bit. Watch this. Didn't see me, but you heard that, didn't you? You fool. I don't even seen a single breaker yet. So, they all got to be congregated in a similar space. This is six, so I just need one more coal. After that, I haven't seen a single breaker. It's very strange. Okay, there we go. That's one. Wait, is this a complete dead end? Oh, [__] Wait, what the [__] Okay, no. But, I'm safe because he's going to beeline towards it. That's right. He's not beholden to the walls and structure that I am.

And I'm just going to stage this. I'm not going to place it just yet. I'm going to stage it up near the oven right there. Give this. I need to find where these other breakers are. There's another one. Okay, cool. Good. There's one more. Aha, there it is. Okay, then I just run it and I'm going to run this in. Not the candle, but the last thing is right up here. I know that. Yep. Done. Yeah. Come on, Carl. Move, smell, duplicate, tug what?

See, that's cheating. I expected six different things, not this two of the That seems like a bad one. I would love to have smell times two. Where is two snow? Can I have two snows? Probably shouldn't start on the side where I hear the thumps, but I'm guessing it doesn't really matter considering you know. Just going to do that. Well, they are all over this place. Oh, [__] Okay. Oh, you're so fast. You're such a fast guy.

Oh, [__] whoa. There's no way to avoid being smelled. Try and keep distance. Okay. Thanks, man. Thank you. Again, the duplication seems unfair. I still have a phobia saying that word. I just want to gather them all in one place, but I know this is going to end up badly. Oh, [__] One of Oh, [__] I wanted all of them to be over there. Go over there. Wait. Oh, look over there. Don't look at me.

Oh, [__] Ow. I'm going to freeze. Just need this for a little bit and then I'm going to Then I'm out of here. Oh, man. Oh my god, I'm the best that ever was. Holy [__] I'm the best. Oh my god, I'm going to freeze. Wait, where am I? I'm going to get out of here. Give me light, please. Oh my god, I'm going to freeze. Please. No, not like this. Oh, yes. Just like this. This is might be the actually one of the most difficult things you could ever imagine. I feel like there's four of them. So, did it duplicate as in they split twice? Because that's not cool.

Here we go. Wait, let me run this over. Nope. I hear them coming. That was terrifying. Good thing it's all over. Oh, [__] it's all over for me. It's all over. Oh, oh, [__] it's all over. Why is it all over? Why is IT ALL OVER? PLEASE, I ALL RIGHT, DON'T WORRY ABOUT THIS. I GOT I WAS DOING pretty good there. I'm not going to lie. That was very impressive gameplay on my part. There might be a lot more coal than I'm imagining. I just can't see most of it. Oh, this is a bad idea. Let's go. Oh, [__] Why? That's not cool. That is Why would you be lying? I'm holding a candle. He can see through walls, I think. I think he can see through walls. If you have the candle, I think that's the only explanation is

that he can see through walls. Because otherwise, it doesn't make any sense. He just has infinite powers to spot you even if there's a giant alarm going off right next to you. If you have a candle, he's going to spot you. Just like that. Oh, [__] Don't worry about it. Watch this. Juked. Oh my god, I'm on the grits. Whoa, dead end. Whoa. Whoa. In the darkness. God, he really can't see if I don't have a candle. That It is much, much easier without a candle.

Well, this would be risky if I did that. I'm not going to do that. Oh, [__] Oh, [__] Oh, [__] Oh, [__] Oh my god, I'm great. Oh, right into his hands. Oh, whoa. Did you shove me in to his mouth? Starve and freeze, all right. Maybe they can smell the coal. Oh, is this a dead end? Oh god, it no it's not. Oh, yes it is. No, it's not. Yes, it is. I couldn't tell. At least I don't have to worry about starving this time. I would If I was smart, I'd be placing these strategically in good spots for light.

Sounds like you're still chasing after something. Where is the thing? Oh god, I shouldn't have done that blind. Oh my god. Oh, why's it got to be so dark? Oh god, why is it so dark? Why is it so [__] Oh my god, they can. WHY DO THEY [screaming] DARK IMMEDIATELY. GOD, why is darkness all around me? I have no candles. No candles. I think with this one I'm going to have to try to be strategic about placement. Cuz otherwise I'm not going to be able to do anything.

Oh my god, really? Before I go just slow Okay, I'm just going to do it. I'm just [__] do it. [__] [__] me and [__] you. Oh, why did God help. It's only fair. Oh, here's all of the coal. Oh, come on. That's right. Yeah, you go away. Okay, but it's still infinite darkness over here with nothing to my name. I would love to be able to get this to a conveyor belt. Some elaborate in thing you could possibly imagine. Labyrinthine. I think actually is the right terminology for that. Here we go. That's what I need. That's what I needed.

Oh, man. Why do they sound like they're literally all around me? I don't think that's fair. Okay, there's a couple. It should be right here. Okay, I need one more and one more breaker. Here's my one more. Just got to do this and I'm going to go for Oh, [__] Oh, [__] me. Stop. Okay, I need that breaker. I don't know where it is. I've been already kind of looping around. I've been down on this bottom right side pretty thoroughly. And I think almost all the ones I've flipped so far have been bottom left.

Oh, [__] off. Oh, there it is. God, there I go. [__] goddammit! THAT'S SO unfair the way it would give me the thing that I need right on top of [__] cob! THE WHOLE [__] TIME I'M NOT SEEING dodging weaving [__] god damn you Really? Is this going to go down forever? Oh, god. So little coal. Ah, one all the way at the farthest. Good. Well, I was hoping.

I've already looked here, haven't I? Yes, I have. Oh, I juked him so good though. Pure darkness. Unadulterated perpetual darkness. [__] I got that cuz I couldn't see where I was going and I was would have died if I didn't grab that. Grab this. Throwing that. That's got it. And I know that I saw that up there. Just need to be able to You know what? Screw it. I'm just going to go for it. They're both right here. It's fine. Probably. But no coal, man. No coal. No coal, zero Not sure how it's possible, but so no coal. They're They're literally on the farthest extremities possible.

Just going to remember that's there. I need five more. There's another. Okay, and I see some over here. You can't see though. Okay, they're all right here. Okay, good enough. Oh, [__] that's bad. Oh, there's the other breaker. Holy [__] Oh my god. Okay, I need to cut left real quick cuz I know that it won't last. Oh, [__] that's not good. Oh my god, I got him. Yeah, I got him. Okay, it's fine. Going back over to the right cuz I know there's a lot of coal right here.

Oh, wait. Was that a [__] that might be bad. That might actually be bad. Unless I was mistaken on how they're seeing me because it could be a possibility. It was. Okay, so it is a possibility that they don't see me. They don't. Okay. So, there are enough coals off to the right, I think, to give me what I need. I just need to I don't know. Distract him or something. I don't know if this cuts all the way back up. Actually, I don't think it does. It doesn't. That's right. It doesn't. This is an isolated wing.

I have to go up. Oh, [__] Whoa! Oh my god. Holy [__] Okay, then I might not get out of this one, guys. OH MY GOD. HOLY [__] GOT TO GO DOWN. Got to go down. I'm just going to go down. That's right. The good news is most of them are over there now. Who is this? Oh my god. Wait. No, stop. Oh, [__] Why did I drop that?

Oh, man. They're really circling the drain there. Oh my god. I'm the greatest that ever lived. I'm the greatest that ever [__] lived. Get in there. Oh my god. YES. DONE. YES. COB CAN DIE. YES. COB CAN DIE, EH? Place battery, eh? Cob can die. Whoa. Okay. All right. So, I need to find batteries, you say. Hmm. Well, well, Cob. Seems like you've reached the end of the line. Cob can hear. Oh, I see, Cob. You think that your skills are going to allow you to somehow escape your fate.

It shall not happen. Shall not happen, Cobb. You're doomed. There's another one, but I don't want to grab that just yet. Cobb can smell for all the good that's going to do him. I just noticed my eyes. Were they always red? They look red and kind of like evil or something. Okay, I'm not going to touch that until I know exactly the route I'm taking it. Okay. I'm going to actually find the other one so that I can know exactly how I'm going to slam these into their places.

Okay, there's that. Grab this candle here. Oh [__] Oh [__] Oh [__] Whoa. [__] God, he was quick. Wait, what the [__] Why was he so fast? That's not very fair. That was anti-climactic. Okay, there's a fairly obvious order that goes here of the directions to do this. I think I was overthinking it before. Okay, wait. Yeah, that I don't think so. Okay, he's Okay, I think this is actually the first one I should probably go for. And maybe I should place them. I don't know. Hey, what the hell?

What the hell, man? He's never going to get me cuz I'm too clever for him. And now, it's time, Cobb, to meet your end once and for all. It's been nice knowing you, Cobb, but alas, all flowers wither and die. Lexi, you make this sound actually kind of cool or something. I don't know if this is coming across quite how I was hoping. Oh, no, please don't get me when I'm just about to get you. No, Cobb, WHERE'S THE DOWN? OH, COME ON. NO. [screaming] WHY IS IT A PERPETUAL DARKNESS? WHY IS IT THE LAND OF PERPETUAL DARKNESS? I CAN DO THIS. OH, you're so done for, Cobb. [clears throat] I'm going in another circle again. [__]

Oh, you're so done FOR, COBB. OH, WHAT'S THAT, COBB? YOU THINK THAT OH, [__] I CAN'T RUN FAST WHEN [__] COBB. [screaming] STOP BEING AN [__] COBB. OH MY GOD, COBB, YOU SUCK SO BAD. OH MY GOD, COBB. [screaming] COBB. PLEASE. COBB. COBB, PLEASE. COBB. COBB, get in THE FIRE, [__] COBB. OH MY GOD. Amazing one week. This was great. Legitimately.

Simple concept, really compelling idea. Like the execution of it was very compelling. I think that this was kind of a triumph. The mechanics very simple. Not much explanation. You don't need a lot. There's There's enough going on. And it's a mechanic that like is instantly understandable, right? Can see, can hear. I get that. Sure. All good. I like this a lot. I think that there's a lot to love out here. And I think the developer should be proud. Link is in the description if you want to play it for yourself and maybe check out the other things that this game developer has made. Thank you everybody so much for watching. But as always, I will see you in the next video.

Bye-bye.
