Seeing the Unseen
Рет қаралды 566,374
Күн бұрынI go over several observations and visuals revolving around the theme of seeing what you normally don’t see. This could involve showing invisible things, showing things that are normally off camera, showing hidden variables, showing data presented in aggregate, or other similar ideas. This video was originally going to be much smaller, but I kept thinking of new things I wanted to show that were semi-related to the theme, and I figured the more information/visuals the better. So that’s why this video is so long and kind of all over the place. Some information in this video has been covered before, but I thought I could cover it better now. So feel free to skip a section if you already know it or find it uninteresting, and KZfaq’s new chapter feature on the progress bar makes this easy to do.
Using pink coins to represent invisible things was a common motif in this video. The reason I chose to use a pink coin for this is because:
(1) A pink coin is relatively easy to hack in.
(2) A pink coin is easy to see because it contrasts with most backgrounds.
(3) A pink coin isn't in the game already, so it's immediately clear that it's something I hacked in rather than an object that was already there.
Big thanks to JoshDuMan ( / @joshduman ) and bad_boot ( / @bad_boot ) for helping me with this video by providing hacks and information that I used.
Additional Notes:
(1) As Nim points out, the weird animation that Mario does when leaving a painting is simply the default pose that happens when no animation is being played.

Technically, levels aren't really code, they're data READ BY the code. "Code is weird" is a good explanation for plenty of things, but not really this. Plus it's possible they had something like a special level editor that made it an easy visual process rather than writing lines of text. They most likely made it invisible and left it there because it's a good idea when you're not sure you want to fully commit to removing something, in case you come back later and decide you did indeed want it there.

aizay Mario 64 does multiple things to screw with first time players, such as the Tall Tall Mountain Death slide, Big Boo’s Haunt tilting floor trap that sends you to the basement, and the infamous Piano loudly coming to life to attack you. The reason I believe screwing with players (in healthy moderation) is good sometimes is because of the philosophy Satoru Iwata covers very well in his 2004 GDQ talk, that entertainment needs emotional response in order to resonate and succeed. Laughter, joy, surprise, fear, anger, pride of accomplishment, etc. all make the experience more memorable. You can’t lie and say you don’t remember the piano or death slide in Mario 64 even if they are not exactly “fun”. Bomb butterflies are definitely a surprising shock if you were one of the few kids to discover it, or other hard to find secrets like the random 1-up in Whomps Fortress castle or any of the hidden triggers shown in this very video.

Seeing the butterflies turn into bombs unlocked a deep memory inside me. I remember watching them spawn as a child and thought it was weird that they would just appear out of thin air. And now, 20 years later, I learned that it was because of the butterflies. Thank you for putting this conundrum I forgot I had to rest, Pannen.

54:20 So if there’s an “effort” value that changes from 4 to 8 when Mario finishes (and is far away from KtQ), I’d actually be really interested in seeing what happens when we manually change that value Like, sure, if Pannen just said “hey I hacked Koopa to be faster” that’d be kind of whatever, but since it’s actually tied to like, a uniquely titled “effort” value it makes it a little more fun.

A different idea, and how I always thought the slide worked, is that you have to pass certain checkpoints to not be considered "cheating" like in mario kart. But this airtime method is the most efficient, and much easier to implement than your idea.
@PC_Simo 3 жыл бұрын
@M. That would be much better. Yes, I recognize it would be more work, like TheBrandonGame said, but this was in an era, when Nintendo actually *PUT* some effort into their games to make sure they were good and worked. Of course, the checkpoint-idea of TheBrandonGame, and even just terminating the airtime check after *YOU* finish, would work just as well. I really don’t know, what the thought process behind the current system was. Maybe it was just a programming oversight. I mean, in Super Mario World, Chargin’ Chucks are technically power-ups. 🤔

17:25 I reckon this isn't a bug. These activators form shapes that are supposed to be completed in one motion. You can avoid doing it the intended way, anyway, but it kind of makes sense that if you only did half of the shape and then left the area and came back, doing the rest wouldn't make it work. When I was younger I assumed that that one on tiny huge island stopped working because the coin was gone, and it relied on both coins being collected back to back to work. But for the ones that don't use coins as guides, you would expect it to still be accessible if you made the whole shape in one motion upon return. And then it wouldn't work. So that would be a design flaw, then.
