Oh you've got to play it! Then report back and let me know how it went. I guess the folks that made it are from Barnsley. This means nothing to me as a foreigner, but this game charmed the pants off me.
Ooh, Barnsley! That's actually super close to where I hail from (we had a Barnsley phone number and post code, despite not technically being in Barnsley). That's so cool, it's not the kind of place you typically see depicted in media
Peans. Not quite peas, not quite beans, but something special, in betweens
Peans is a dessert.
Too meta.
I remember seeing in the beginning credits one time how it's based off of a novel and thinking "huh I wonder what its about?"
And then going back in to the bakery store and the woman was saying "its about the interpersonal conflicts of everyone living on the same street its very moving, nothing like this shite"
I remember watching the film as a kid, Kes. Maybe the book has the same name.
The ending was pretty great, and I darn near slapped everyone and thing I could. Not the least bit replayable but extremely memorable and enjoyable!
Every now and then, I yearn for something a bit silly and light and I’ll pop it on for half an hour. I haven’t fully replayed it more than twice though haha.
That endless song! And the gummy was kicking in...I could have broken that clock for ages.
Oh dear oh dear, it's really brok
Loved the game, but... we don't talk about that cow scene...
I can't stop thinking about the last time you straighten up the fishmonger's shop! 😂
Reggie's wife could learn a thing or two.
One of the voiceactors has a crazy comedy podcast thats been running for ages called Regular Features.
Can recommend if you like the humor, since one of the devs is a fan of that show and got inspiration from it.
I listened to an episode last night and it tickles the same absurd funny bone, loved it! I feel like there's a touch of the absurd or whimsy in the British humor that I respond to, even though not being British I often don't understand some references. Case in point, I love the podcast Three Bean Salad.
Said voice actor also runs a pub in Nottingham, the King Billy! And now I must depart BUZzzzzzz
I watched Game Grumps play this game a while back and found it very funny. Certainly a labor of love
It's unfortunate they never finished it. 2 eps then poof. Game is right up their alley with the humor.
I was also disappointed by that.
Thankfully RTGame has a full playthrough and stream VOD uploaded. It's actually who I watched play it first and I instantly fell in love
But why? The game is like 2 hours long at most.
I can imagine between Game Grumps, The Grumps, Ninja Sex Party, the extra Patreon content, and other schedules, they can get quite busy lol.
Ooh how exciting.
I'm tempted, but I'd want to share in the fun with my kid. Anyone who's played it, What's the youngest you'd recommend?
I wouldn’t say it’s suitable for kids - there’s a lot of innuendo and crude visual gags. Mid/late teens probably fine, but it’ll depend on your tolerance.
I played it with my 6year old. She absolutely loved it! And so did I.
Yeah? Admittedly I'm calibrated to the 80s version of what "PG-13" meant. What was the most risque bit? Mine is pretty comfortable with non sexual nudity and rude humour, but anything sexually explicit he's probably not ready.
There's a couple of raunchy jokes. One implies a fish is a man's penis, and he orgasms when you slap the fish repeatedly. There's the cow you milk with a motion that imitates male masturbation. Also a couple of body horror stuff that look like an anus you enter into a fleshy intestine like cavern. Lot's of sexual innuendo in dialogue jokes. Definitely not a kid's game. Maybe play it first, it is a short game, and gauge if it is proper for your kid before playing it with them. Since the game is linear and most interactions are not optional. It's more like teen immature humor.
I might wait a year, based on what I'm hearing. He's already got a weird sense of humour compared to kids his age, I should probably cool it.
That guy who lives in the dumpster definitely shows full frontal nudity at a couple points.
Very good explanation. My kid didn't pick up any of that luckily. But there are defiantly some obscene scenes.
Some of the humor is quite adult but not explicit. I'd expect a lot of it to go over a kid's head tbh and they'd probably laugh at the silliness. But you, the adult, know what you're truly laughing at. And if you're okay with that then the choice is yours.
As soon as they can hold a controller and know somewhat about what a game is.
The controls are moving in a direction, jump and slap. And you can't do anything wrong at all.
