- If you thought this claymation style platformer would be all harmless fun like Wallace and Gromit, we've got bad news for you. Good luck trying to get to sleep for the next month, after the beans scene...

Please, never stop using the take out box for the facts.
My girlfriend literally said "why does he keep looking at his food and not eating it?" And I'm dying laughing
😂 love it
Cause they are still full from that Cluckin' Bell Prove It.
Finally, someone else who understands that claymation looks delicious
Hot Fresh Fact: The Neverhood team did not intend to make a direct sequel to the Neverhood, but Steven Spielberg (head of DreamWorks Interactive, and champion of the original Neverhood) only backed the side scrolling game if it was made into a sequel to the original Neverhood.
That IS a fun fact...oh, you didn't call it that...that is a FUN fact!
There can only be one neverhood
Watching Ashton contemplate a career change in real time was intense.
This absolutely gives me "game I play at grandmas house that becomes formative but i can never remember the name of and can't describe to anyone" vibes
That beans cutscene makes the whole thing worthwhile
The one with a hamster is also great.
As someone who has never skipped the intro I'm moderately disgusted by the existence of those that do, it's like when you find out someone doesn't wash their legs in the shower
there are ppl who dont wash their legs in the shower?? you're right, i am moderately disgusted by those ppl as well...and the into skippers, of course.
Or people who stand to wipe.
It would be rough being a youtuber when it seems like most people have the attention span of a chipmunk
I’m so fed up with people saying that it’s “dirty” not to wash your legs in the shower. I don’t need to wash my legs in the shower because when I pee it just runs down them and sterilises them.
@@tylarjackson7928 buy a washcloth and stop skipping the intros ya cretin
My brother was autistic and used to be obsessed with this game; we’d both play it for hours on end together. There are so many quirky details and things that happen that it’s worth playing and giving your 100% attention to. The guys missed so many little things in this play. Like the fact that Klaymen’s trousers fall down if you don’t do anything for a while, but when that happened, nobody was looking at the screen.
I’m glad you found common ground with your brother. I never played Skullmonkeys, but after watching this, I could see myself getting a little obsessed as well.
I am autistic and I love it to
I'm not retarded, but like it as well.
I like how Ashton picked up the bullet on the first level. Immediately fired it off, collected a couple more along the line, and everybody promptly completely forgot about bullets 😅
The soundtrack to Skullmonkeys is superb.
Worm graveyard is where it was at.
This game was my 1st ps1 game I owned and had fallen in love with Neverhood series to the point that I even own the autographed album by terry scott taylor (2disc) and Doug tenNaple did the art for earthworm jim as well
A pity we never got a proper Neverhood 3 or literally whatever gimmick Klayman had to put up with.
There was Armikrog!
Spiritual sequel Armikrog, as mentioned above
Y’all just unlocked a memory with this one lol
The red ball you jumped through has nothing to do with the room where the Lil' Bonus Room plays; at the end of some stages you just get a choice between a couple of different sub levels with the red one being tougher. Also, getting hit while using the Pharthead just returns you to where Klayman was left without losing a life (you're not invincible when using it).
Seeing the look on Ashton's face after Ben said she gets to pick the next one, I don't think she's going to be playing nice with her choice 😂 Cheers from Canada! Been fans of you guys through NAME REDACTED and Vidiots and you guys continue to entertain so thanks for all the awesome content over the years
That game has the best cutscenes EVER. No sarcasm. I'd watch 2 hours of that guy eating beans. It's like a claymation Ren and Stimpy. I hope there's a claymation movie that those animators worked on.
“A bad man fell from the sky” I remember playing this one.
This made me nostalgic for the days when EA's logo didn't make me cringe.
That was certainly weirder than most.
I'm going to have that bonus room song stuck in my head for the rest of the day.
I understand this is definitely of a certain vintage but this gives off big Trap Door energy
"There's something down there" 😂
Ah - yeah - i see what u mean
The song and the cut to their reaction was so good, crying 😂
As kid , neverhood games were one of my favorites. Thank you tripple jump!
Wow, they did something super crazy with the intro. Everyone should watch it and not skip any so you don't miss it.
I grew up playing the PC game, I never knew it had a sequel! I’ll have to check this out, very cool it’s different from the point & click. The art style and weird feeling it gives it was made the original so cool
I would love to see Ashton play Katamari Damacy
Totally
I actually never skip the intro because it is good
Ah yes, the Lil" Bonus Room song. That song has caused more thrown controllers than any rage ever could.
"oh, it's the same year I was born"
Make us feel old Ashton 😱😅
I found the game by chance at my uncle's house who had a ps1 back then, from the moment I started the game I played like crazy, as I was losing I was getting better until suddenly I finished it
Skullmonkeys is amazing! I have a translated version of the neverhood on ps1 as well
This is probably my favourite Weirdest Games episode so far, great work guys.
nah...the Playboy Mansion still GOAT than most
That musical number from the end might have actually melted my remaining brain cells.
Ashton look legit numb at the end lol
I never skip the intro because I love that song
Hey team,
I never thought about how skipping the intro would affect the channel. What other sorts of behaviours do you see from yoru viewers that have an impact like that? For instance, I've disabled my adblocker for you guys, but after the first few seconds of an ad, there's often the option to skip the rest of the ad - do you still get the ad revenue if the ad is skipped when youtube allows it?
It would make for a really ploppers video, but it'd be really good to hear from you guys:
What can we, as viewers do or stop doing to help the success of the channel...
Maybe something for the podcast?
Keep up the good work!
Peter:Hello!
Ben:Bang
Peter:Are You Listening!?
Ashton:I’m Doing A Murder!!!
Me:😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That game over screen brought back so many memories I almost choked up a bit. My and my sisters and cousin would play this all the time as kids.
For some reason "some sort of land shark" just sent me 😂😂😂. This whole thing was just so funny, thanks for cheering me up!
I’ve never heard an actual explanation for why it’s called a “cold open.” My best guess is that the audience is going into a show cold since there’s no opening title sequence to warm them up. For decades they were called “teasers” within the TV industry, which makes more sense than “cold open” because their primary purpose is tempting the audience to stick around.
Y'all are such dorks. I'm so there for it. Keep it up you 3.
The whole ball-wazoo back and forth gives me life. It's like me and my mates.
Certainly a fitting game for this series!
I use to live this game as a kid. My sister and I would play it all the time. This and Blasto were the 2 games we played a lot oh and Abe's oddworld.
What a fascinating game. Great graphics, awesome cut scenes.
Here's a little bonus room, 'cause I know you had it tough
The lil' bonus song pales in comparison to the The Neverhood theme; that theme gets stuck in your head for weeks!
Peter again shattering the Hot and Fresh Facts Box. He has to be so weird like that.
They also seem so deflated emotionally the end of it.
I wondered where the boingboingboing went. I sorta miss it, it was a very satisfying noise. xD
We the people need more BCU, along with Tiny Peter the Snyder cut, maybe some Ashton Netflix specials
Since you asked nicely, I sat through the intro twice
Nice Phantom of the Opera reference from Ashton.
Ashtons laugh at 12.19 is not normal...🤣🤣
I LOVE this game. I do have a massive problem with Doug TenNaple as a person, but he was involved in some absolutely fantastic games (Earthworm Jim, Neverhood, Skullmonkeys, Armikrog).
co-signed on all of this. the dev team on Earthworm Jim 3 had to go out of their way to say that Doug was not involved will not be seeing profits from the game, which is the only reason I'm looking forward to it. The Neverhood and Skullmonkeys soundtracks are absolutely wonderful though, start to finish.
I was half way through high school when Ashton was born...
I'll just crumble to dust in the corner now.
19:01 confirmed Ben gets eaten by Peter.
Omg those skull monkeys are just the thing from the David Tennant era of Dr who on the episode with cybermen and that guy who accidentally info stamped himself and thought he was Dr who. There's literally a weird Beasty in that episode that IS a skull monkey.
3:52 - when Ashton mocks Krogg's screaming it sounds like an inkling girls death voiceline from splatoon..
I imagine claymation would taste like marzipan for some reason.
Mazapan, I can confirm they do indeed.
If you bounce on a skullmonkeys head 3 times in a row without touching the ground klayman does a funny action. This also happens if you jump on the checkpoint bird 3 times without touching the ground.
Great game, but hard as heck
One of my favorite games of all time
In the artists defense, the list of _good_ 3d platformers is pretty short when compared to the massive number of terrible ones. Especially in the early days for every Mario there was a Bubsy, a Shrek and an Earthworm Jim. Even today you run into Balan Wonderworld and have to wonder if that guy wasn't kinda right.
Oh man I've wondered if Neverhood would wind up on here. Randomly got it in a pack of disks and that whole concept was beyond bizarre to young me. Pretty sure I put it away after soft locking it in a "eat clay fruit and then burp" sequence
I didnt know there was a sequel to The Neverhood, but I never managed to complete the first game. Didn't know what I was supposed to do after a certain point.
My real name is Dan Amos, so hearing you say that band name was a surreal moment.
I heard about this band way back in school when I googled myself instead of doing my IT classwork.
Hmmm was that bonus room song featured in any other game? I know I've heard it but I've never played this game...
Ben: Bam. Bam! _Bam!_
Peter: Are you paying attention??
Ben: _BAM!_
Ashton: I'm doing a murder! :D
No idea who's out there skipping a short intro (or any intro but thats me) but lovely jump things as always!
Ashton realizing during this video she took the wrong life choices will never not get me
"An old school approach of making games very hard" - runs into stationary enemy. Seriously, those are some basic jumps and that's not being nasty, just stating a fact.
Incredible cold open. 10/10. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
R.i.p Gus 11:26
I was not ready for the Abengers.
So many good memories with this game.
I used to play this at a friends house way back when! The beans haha I can't believe I forgot about this game
This made my night guys, much appreciated.
I played The Neverhood to death. This game as great too.
IT IS BEANS TIME AGAIN!
That is actually how Doug TenNapel actually spells TenNapel.
I rented this game from blockbuster when it came out..... I'm so old.
I still have this . with neverhood and boombots.. Klaymen needs a return
Watched you guys since what culture. Genuinely my two favourites.. Have stuck with you since, but always skip the start, I'm ashamed to admit it. But you caught me off guard and i did watch it this time. Haha, it's a great intro though, everything you guys and girls do kicks ass. All my love and gratitude
Me and my skunkey
Skunkey doesn't wear any pants
I like this format. It's the new Curb your enthusiasm
Now that It Is Beans Time is official TripleJump canon, when shirt?
13:30 So, no Self Love Club despite Ashton even wearing a T-Shirt with literally saying that?
Aahhhwwww maaaaaan, colour me disappointed! Such fake foreshadowing!
EA Games. It's in the...Sport?
He's not actually reading the facts from a a piece of paper?... You just broke kayfabe, Peter.
Yoooo love this series as always
Well this certainly qualified for weirdest games lol. The game reminds me of the video clip for Ding by Seeed.
This game was my go to game when I was 7. Played it nonstop along with heart of darkness and some other game I've been trying to remember the name of for the past 20 years.
It was a kids game, that was a party brawler i think. Not sure if it was tag team or 2-4 players and you just fought each other on little platforms/levels, and all the characters had similar bodys/arms to Rayman but were all little kids i think aha
Core memory unlocked
You should all play the original game (Neverhood) - it was pretty cool.
Go off sis killed me!
I love ‘cold opening’ 😊
I actually liked it. You're right about it being a real pain in the ass when it comes to difficulty. I was a lot better at it in the 90's I was 11 or 12 at the time. Wasted a summer flipping it. The 90's were weird. Everything is goofy or sorta dark. I always thought it had a Tim Burton-esque look to it.
❤ for Ashton!
It’s a real shame TenNapel turned out to be a crummy bigoted POS because I love this style
I just did a quick Wikipedia search on the guy, and holy crap what an absolute throbber he is. I know you're supposed to separate the art from the artist and all that, but this has really left a sour taste in my mouth, like when Joss Whedon got revealed to be a sexist douchenozzle or Warren Ellis was outed as a manipulative sex pest.
@@philiphunn194 yeah, it’s really tough in these cases. I backed one of his indiegogo campaigns during the height of the 2020 protests here in America. The campaign updates started getting infected with his garbage political musings, and that’s where I had to draw the line.
@@philiphunn194 Believe the lie
@@philiphunn194 first of all: DO NOT trust Wikipedia. Anyone can edit that. Secondly, I know it’s hard to separate the art from the artist but in this case is necessary like how with 12 forever you have to separate the show from who created it. She ended up be a horrible person too
@@SunshineLoLypops did you even do research before saying that?
This would've been great for 3ds port. The clay style stuff looks awesome with 3d effect.
i like how ashton looks from the sides,she has
like a cute mouse face
