- So it's here! My analysis of the R&G Dept salvaged from the depths of nonexistence that it may have fallen to thanks to my technical difficulties.
I hope that nobody minds how much of the video was taken up by enemies, it's just that most of the floor is taken up by enemies as well.

Eggs soon, I promise.
The forge/hollow provide heat and air conditioning for the office
And the hollow is for the cold air
@@humantwister9209 that's literally what he meant
ZadyTec_14 bruh moment
yes
And the forge is for the warm air
I find it funny that the floor named the “RNG” department is the only floor not randomly generated
I'm pretty sure the g is for gun

RUN AND GUN
So in the rng department karen is the manager. The very thing she swore to destroy
I... somehow managed to type my comment as a reply.
Sad truth to all the karens. See too many managers and become the manager
Yes
OMG IT REALLY IS KAREN

The armored bullet kins spirit leaving is a reference to dark souls. When you die in dark souls you lose souls. For the armored bullet kins, he loses spirits
*YOU DIED*
you lost 1 soul.
I thought it was a refrence to FMA with the soul leaving the suit being a refrence to Alphonse Elric because he is a soul bound to a suit of armor
@@myriad4657 dodge roll has a tendency to reference games rather than shows
Looking for this comment
Colder Animations yeah I’ve noticed that my self but there are references to things like Naruto and dragonball so I just made the logical leap and thought it wouldn’t be above them
that western shotgun kin is clearly in reference to Doug Dimmadome, owner of the Dimmsdale Dimmadome smh my head
NoArms no Dimma disrespect for Doug Dimma Dome, this never named boi is uncultured
shake my head my head?
The same Doug Dimmadome, owner of the Dimmsdale Dimmadome where they're showing Crash Nebula?
Who was a reference to boss hog from the dukes of hazzard.
HawkZ woooosh
The brollet (bro-let) is a reference to the game "Broforce" where some enemies, well, have dynamite strapped to them and explode on death.
Finally Someone find the reference
and It's also from Devolver Digital, these guys only make masterpieces like Broforce, gungeon, the Messenger, fall guys, hotline miami, katana zero and my friend pedro
@@alvarofs131 Isnt devolver digital a publisher though?
@@gregalt3405 guess you're right, but it's undeniable that they only choose great games to publish
The boss is a Metal Gear reference, and also the floor isn't random because it's the R AND G department, RNG.
I love the double reference, both the hind fight and Cam Clarke aka the voice of Liquid Snake
Green Fish are, uh, probably Nuclear Throne stuff.
They should roll.
i guess so, fish can roll.
bumputer bumputer or oubliete related. Probably both
*Its ok to eat*
"You've finally come into my hole!"
oh
Dont put me to the r/wooosh for this
the line had been remade later in the game from that to "so, you've finally JUMPED into my hole"
even if you dont have a dirty mind, it should be damn well obvious why they changed it
@@kindnesstemmie6625 r/wooosh
@@mashiromoritaka6299 god damn it
MISSION FAILED WELL GET EM NEXT TIME
@@kindnesstemmie6625 They never changed the line. I recorded that footage on the day I uploaded this video. The 'jumped in' and 'come in' lines are both in the game, but it was incorrectly recorded on the wiki that 'come in' had been removed.
0:49 He actually only spawns if you have a master round on you by the time you enter the hallow. No master round, and he doesn’t spawn.
Ohhhhh.... I was wondering why one run he hadn't spawned
isnt it a guaranteed spawn rather than some ¼ chance of spawning?
Unlock the hallow in hardmode after killing the wallmonger
furry things omg did u make a terraria joke
@@fabianlopez8648 god damnit
I always thought the “Kaliber Thing Bulletman” and the “Kalibullet” were also weird robots. The fact that they’re organic makes them way creepier.
Also, I loved the thought of a Gungeoneer going down to the R&G Department for the first time, go into a room with their gun ready, and just walk in on some Gundead on break having tea or something.
Wobbmin omg yes that’s hilarious.
*kicks down door
Oh shit, there’s a gungeoneer here, uhhhhhh...
Can we finish our tea?
The mustache on the western shotgun kin might just be a fake one.
He could just have the Mustache Item the player can also get.
This video was a lot of fun to make, even if it did turn out a bit clumsy in a few places. That's the price you pay for salvaging an old script, I guess.
If anything else is brought to my attention, I'll add it to this comment.
------------------------------
- "Hit's Bakery" told me that Brollets are in reference to the game Broforce. Heard of the game, but never played it, so I didn't pick up on the reference.
- "ketra1504" informed me that the Armoured Bullet Kin's spirit is a reference to Dark Souls. Again, a game I've (regrettably) never played. Maybe once I finish Super Mario World.
- "George McCartney" among others informed me that the Cylinder enemies are in reference to the Cylinder robots from the 1988 movie 'Felix the Cat: The Movie'.
The brolet is a reference to broforce an old devolver game. In the game you fight kamikaze terrorists
@@hasagi5796 Could you give a link?
@@Nevernamed to the game?
@@Nevernamed store.steampowered.com/app/274190/Broforce/
@@hasagi5796 Thanks, I'll add that to the pinned comment.
2 things to add to this. 1: I'm about 99% sure the green Fish enemies are based on the character Fish from Nuclear Throne.
2: the thing in the specimen tubes reminds me a lot more of a Metroid from the series of the same name with its jellyfish-like shape and triangular arrangement of... things in the dome portion of it.
Yeah because NT inspired EtG
I would like to see the manager quickly.
"Sir, do you have an appointment-"
*Loads gun* I just want to talk.
With the Leever thing, i dont think the stuff coming out of its chambers is fire. I think its mouths. Weird, sandworm-esque mouths, thus linking it to its namesake, the Leever
I myself believe that the body we don't see is probably very similar to the leevers as well.
With exit the gungeon out now, it might be related to the new boss killinder.
@@arthurroth3147 Yes it is.
Wow, you weren’t kidding about “Coming Soon”...
Yep, I made that shitpost while in the final phases of this video's editing.
If it's Gungeon related, it should be called a shootpost.
From my observations, Fridge maiden is slightly different: the cheese slices don't aim *directly* at you, and instead meander loosely in your general direction, making it much harder to predict a safe zone.
By spent a bunch of time observing you mean watching the Helicopter have a seizure?
Finally, some quality cactus representation in gaming.
noice
I have my own theory on the venomous vial thing or whatever that is at the end of the video- the red and white thing on the tube is actually a skull crossbones danger sticker, not something in the vial itself. Just my own thoughts.
The still frame I showed doesn't give away much, but that thing pulsates. It can't be a sticker.
@@Nevernamed Ah, fair point. Then again, it still looks eerily like a skull to me (at least from the still frame), so maybe it really is meant to have sinister connotations.
I think it’s a Metroid reference
This is a replacement of a comment previously made, where I said "It's pronounced gigi not gigi" as a joke. But having almost finished the video now, I'm changing it to this:
When you made the comment about the hollow and forge being opposites, and Rng Dept. being inbetween, it made me think of it as a "heaven/hell" situation. I *am* aware that there is "bullet hell". However, the forge, being made of fire and ashen monsters, is below the hollow, made of, well, the opposite. And, seeing as the Rng Dept is in-between, and seems to take place in a city, it makes a little sense. Heaven above, and hell below, with the normal land in-between. This also kind of acts as a purgatory for enemies that seem to be cut from the game. The desert, pirate, and space enemies all ended up here, Alongside Agunim. This isnt really a real floor, anyway. It doesnt follow the gungeons rules. It doesnt change, it doesnt have chests, shops, a real boss. Agunim *shouldnt* be there. He moved there, kind of like gungeoneers.
Or you could see it as Purgatory.
They pump the heat from the Forge to act as the heating, and the cold air from the Hollow for air conditioning. Literally taking free resources from the Gungeon, like a true capitalist.
Obviously the farewell to arms update was a last hoorah because the developers decided working on the game was too difficult in it's current state, and they wanted to move onto other things.
So the R&G department is just thrown in there for fun and I accept that now.
But that being said, every floor has a secret floor in between, the keep had the oubliette, the gungeon proper had the abbey, the mines had the rat maze, and if you squint, I consider bullet hell to be the secret floor to the forge.
MY idea for the secret floor to the hollow is some dark dank cave under the hollow where the rift the killithid and phaser spiders originate from, and the boss involves closing the rift.
If you think about it, it makes sense. The killithid are known for preferring cold areas, namely the hollow, why not have a themed floor connected to the floor they're most associated with
Agunim is definitely a reference to "A Link To The Past", in the video, you said something like "Agunim is a wizard apprentice to the powerful cannon, who tried to invade the gungeon long ago and failed." In the Zelda game, Agahnim (Agunim) is a wizard apprentice to Ganon (Cannon), and years before Ganon had tried to invade Hyrule (The Gungeon), but was banished to the the sacred realm, which was transformed into the dark world. That last bit was just some other part of the lore, but I found that reference really interesting
Thank you for pointing out what the Pirate Shotgun's hat actually was. All this time I looked at it and for some reason thought it was one of those hats you're able to store beer cans in, but with far more spots to store cans. Makes a lot more sense now that I know what it actually is.
The Kbullet's swiss-cheese appearance might be related to the Holey Grail.
Could alien floor thing leever be a teliporter mimic?
Given how many mimics are in the game AND were cut out this isn't that far fetched.
especially given there once was a shop keeper/ bunker mimic(Bunker is a cut boss cut due to being unfun to fight and the mimic was an alternate version of it) both of which were cut before release as well.
So the mimics used to be able to mimic ANYTHING in the game.
@@Warcrafter4 just imagine, a bullet kin mimic that can jam other bullet kin
In Exit the Gungeon there is a boss that looks a lot like that, it's a flaming gun cylinder. So that's interesting.
Fish can roll
Question: what does the ammonomicon say the enemy was when you are killed by a regular enemy? They don't have official names so is it just the default?
When an enemy has no ammonomicon entry, it just says you were killed by your slow reflexes.
These enemies actually have death messages based on what enemies they presumably borrowed code from.
Eg:
Cactus --> "Killed by Cubulon"
Musketball Guy --> "Killed by Tazie"
Theoretically, you can prototype an animal. Creatures that are heavily geneticly modified might already have small lifespans, so you could probably just keep that trait for the ones you dont want and then modify the best "build" of it to have longer lifespans.
God the clip at the end was just priceless
21:48 I think that thing in the glass is actually the boss you fight in exit the Gungeon, Killinder. It looks extremely similar to it, especially when looking at the sprite from the game files
I feel like you could rearrange the categories for the ennemies slightly. I agree with the pirate and western categories, but I'm thinking that the mutant part of the "future" category could go with the angry necronomicon, stone tablet and candle guys to form a magic/kaliber goup, with maybe the armored bullet kins to. Also, office bullet and bullettes, the Titan ones included, and the fridge maiden form an office category.
They were really just arbitrary categories made to structure things a little more nicely, you could absolutely mix them around as much as you liked.
"Upon coming out of the closet"
oh no
That interdimensional horror theory actually makes a lot of sense, the X on its forehead is also seen on top of the cilinder
It seems like there was a necromancy theme involved as well ( the angry necronomican, angry tablet, candle guy, bullet gargoyle maybe, armoured bullet kin if you really want to stretch it)
I can totally see that. I was thinking that the gargoyles' animation where they revert from stone was probably meant to be used in an area where there's similar looking stone statues, like the Ashen version of Bullet and Shotgun Kin do sometimes. Having a bunch of spooky gundead in a Gothic style atmosphere would really work well.
its more so a fantasy/medieval theme
I like to think the Brolett is a reference to Broforce (both games are published by Devolver Digital and one of Broforce's main enemies is an explosive-vest-wearing Mook, plus, y'know, bro).
NN having gungeon flashbacks at 16:41

Also that's pizza, not cheese
Me on my way to destroy the *CEO of RNG*
The "Leever" thing looks pretty similar to the Teleporter Prototype.
11:27
That’s not facial hair.
He Drew that on with a maker
11:20 Doug Kin owner of gungeon dome
*Agunim seizure intensifies*
That was a nice mod you used there... I never knew the Charge Shot’s name was so long:)
Edit: WHERE MY EGGS
Btw the rnd Boss is basically a super blatant liquid snake hind d boss fight from Mgs boss lol
That cylinder alien looks like that flaming cylinder boss from exit the gungeon
I do think the Kalibullet is related to the monster we see when breaking a mirror
Woo! 'Preciate the effort dude
I have a feeling that the entrance of the gunegon is actually at an elevation above a planet. The first few floors can be leading down to the hollow, at the top of a mountain. The higher elevation is cooler ( Hollow) and under the R&G dept is the crust of the planet. Almost like the gungeoneer slid down a mountain on their way to the R&G dept. As you go deeper, it gets hotter. The forge can close to the planet's core. While bullet hell IS the core.
Also the Cylinders look like the robots from the old sonic cartoon.
By that logic, the Keep should be far colder than the Hollow. Not to mention the fast that it borders an ocean, which you don't tend to see at high elevations.
@@Nevernamed Well, after giving it some thought, I'm actually wondering if it is two planets almost sandwiched on top of each other, or a world inside of a world. The hollow could be an underground ocean frozen by a lack of sunlight or warmth. I've been on a few caving adventures with some family members and if it gets deep enough water can actually freeze. But besides that, the RNG department can be a completely artificial world, one made solely for other inhabitants of the gungeon. In many comics like the old Sonic comics there is a hidden world completely inhabitated by humans, complete with an artificial sky, and many more things. Maybe the RNG department is that very thing? Then again, this is the gungeon we are talking about. We have a Mermaid Shotgun, after all.
OH SHIP!!! I didn't know this existed! I apologize, I won't be watching the rest of the video after the 1 minute mark to avoid spoilers, because now I NEED to see this for myself.
"So upon coming out of the closet, you find yourself in a corridor full of well-dressed bullet kin."
~Nevernamed 2019
The spider alien...thing...ressembles the spider shotgun kin...*thing*
lmao I love how the lead maiden is the fridge maiden
Finally, some cactus representation in gaming.
Pretty sure the armored bulletkin’s appearance and spirit being released on death is a Dark souls reference, back to the brass armored Darkmoon Knightess.
The city theory does make sense
They send their dead bodies to the hollow and get some metal works from the forge and serves as a natural divider from travel point
The cylinders oddly enough share a lot of resemblance to the cylinder army from that Felix the Cat movie
I like these videos so much. I remember watching all of them 3-4 years back, and now that I in my Gungeon phase again, they are VERY enjoyable! Author could really be a very successful youtuber, pacing and speech are very good :)
I actually found this randomly with a friend of mine when the update was fairly new in a funny instance... since I was playing the Cultist, I let them have most of the good items and, they basically said "I'm going to give them my master round, we really need the money lol", I nearly lost my head over it but, a part of me was chuckling of laughter on the inside since it's a master round but, the floor opened up and, me and, my friend turned and, looked at each other in confusion as the floor opened up and, in disgust at the full form of the sell creep and, we both ended up laughing and, giving each other a "What the f___ was that?!" reaction, we were shocked at the boss battle and, my friend had flight so, actually couldn't leave the area and, I don't remember why but, they couldn't lose their flight(, I think we had controller issues or, something like that), if I weren't alive the whole run would've been forfeit since I didn't have flight, I dropped down making our exit, we finished, confused, baffled and, very pleased.
Isnt the armoured bullet sprit appearing when it dies a refrence to dark souls and how you drop your souls when you die, i might be wrong tho.
r&g department is the best pun because it works three ways, as RNG, R&D, and run and gun
Oh, so this is that thing, that i see during a payday heist
The pacing of your voice is superb, strange observation but an important one
The enemies under the glass floors are probably rejected bosses. The 6 chamber leever is actually now a boss in Exit The Gungeon.
I thought the brollets were a serious Sam reference. You know, the guys with bombs that run at you.
21:41
This is in exit the gungeon, it looks a lot like one of the bosses, watch hutts's 2nd exit video.
Gotta love the soundtrack for this floor.
The Titan bullets are actually really cute
The western shells probably glued on the moustaches
While I was watching the video I finally beat old king
R.i.p. level 6 junkan
16:31 oFISHially done with enemies
Manager karen stole my kids
21:33
I think that's the huge worm that appears in the mines in the convict's path in Exit the Gungeon.
I do NOT want a Lead Maiden to hold me. I would rather stay human than turn into swiss cheese
THE GUN CYLINDER MADE IT TO EXIT THE GUNGEON AND IT'S A BOSS
I bet the armored bullet soul thing is a Dark Souls reference.
I like to think that retired gungeoneers and other characters you don't meet live in the city.
the thing in the barrels is supposed to be a metroid from the series of the same name.
1:36 OF COURSE you have the patriot
I feel like the Necronomicon, Tablet, Armored Bullets, Candles, and Gragoyles are all from another cut floor, most likely a Dark Medieval Fantasy themed one.
It’s funny how the bullet kin are wearing suits since they’re always naked
"no enemies here have a ammonomicon entry... ...they don't want to clog up the ammonomicon with enemies that only appear on one floor"
yes I searched this up
Tanker
Minelet
Fallen bullet kin
Shotgrub
Bombshee
Det
Tombstoner
Mountain cube
Lead cube
Flesh cube
all appear on only one floor AND have ammonomicon entries, I could understand with the reskins, but it might have been because they didn't want to make the physical ammonomicon out dated
16:22 It's occurred to me that this may be a running joke, seeing as the NPC Old Red is a blank, a giant blue bullet.
the bullet fish red is probably a nod to Old Red who is actually blue.
8:45 No cheese projectiles, thats pizza baby
11:22 it’s a stick on Moustache obviously
The test tubes probably hand waive the “forging” of the animals as well as the horror. As for how falling off the roof spawns you in an elevator? It cuts to black, so they could be having a pee break before finding one next to the gift shop for all we know.
Not much to say about the Cactus enemy, for shame!
Right after talking about fish
We are o FISHaly done
I think the brollet is a reference to broforce where there is a enemy that explodes with dynamite around them
22:30 the inter dimensional horror looks like it’s about to drop some fire
The necromonican is a reference to ash vs evil dead
The theme is history for the R and G department how did you not see that
its so LATE but I must watch
I just found your channel. Love these videos
I think this is like Cabin in the Woods, with the R&G department being the lab they unleash their experiments from
I like to call the Bullet Gargoyle the Bullat Lord.
6:27
I'm two years late and I don't know if another comment brought it up or not. This is a reference to the movie "Army of Darkness." In that film, the protagonist Ash must find the Necronomicon and utter the words "Klaatu Barada Nikto" (instead of Beretta, the gun-ified version).
The sprite of Armoured Bullet Kin's armor breaking away is actually in the game
