The biggest puzzle is to find a new space for the webcam

Tyler at 7:17 you could have just put the blue mirror in front of the red light

I don’t know why this made me laugh so damn hard

Indie developers should make a game with a fixed facecam spot.

@@PotatoSofi this is actually genius

wasn't

"Pretty isn't it? Anyways, become a physicist"

Nice of u

Yes, bless you!!

Achoo

Bless you Tyler

I fucking hate when I see something Tyler doesn't, it's like watching a childhood hero fall from grace

Yes, the pain is real.

Same

On L24? Indeed you weren't. And the solution he does find misses the intended lesson of "coloured mirrors can be used to combine, not just to split," which then makes it harder later on. On L27 he uses the very corner of the red mirror and has the blue laser just miss it instead of overlapping red and blue properly.

This series is just painful to watch, he misses so much obvious shit. So weird watching him do a worse job at a game than you could do.

AGREED

only bad part is that this theme combined with tylers voice make me wanna fall asleep before the video ends lol

*discord ping* Yes that is a wonderful theme

I cant unhear a slow part of never gonna give you up at some of the parts

i am suddenly excited for highschool

Took AP Phys 2 this year, still haunted by thin films and lenses

I'm not usually a fan of FPSs, but having a laser tag game with diffraction like this sounds cool.

@@TlalocTemporal ooh, I might have to steal that idea

@@TlalocTemporal that would be sick

@@TlalocTemporal yeah, I've built a concept for it now. Gonna call it Prismatag.

@@syndere6755 -- That's a good name, very descriptive.

To be fair to KZfaq, half the videos on KZfaq are on this one channel, the other half have a combined total of 401 views, and Tyler did put the words "poly bridge" in the description. Poor algorithm probably doesn't have enough data in it to automatically recognise this particular game yet. After all, it DID list a video on speedruning strategies in Bottom of the Well in Ocarina of Time (a location often abbreciated as BOTW) as Breath of the Wild (also abbreviated as BOTW, and in the same series) despite the video being posted before Breath of the Wild had its name announced, and does reguarly get confused between OOT and OOT 3D, Wind Waker and Wind Waker HD, and Twilight Princess and Twilight Princess HD (although the latter two are not helped by people playing mods (e.g. rando) on emulator while also using a HD texture pack).

@@alexstewart9592 I would argue that commenting on KZfaq not differentiating between the HD and non HD versions of games is a little nitpicky, but I see your point

You're right, he's just making it harder for no reason.

Yeah, irl they're called dichroic mirrors and are used with lasers for exactly that purpose

Yuppp, I saw that too

I was about to say that

I'm assuming he meant that the game has a cap on how many beams it will render/process (to avoid lag and whatnot)

I was searching for such comment 😂

@@TrevorSmithy just because I love lasers. In IRL when you bounce a laser off of a mirror the mirror absorbs some of the power of the laser. So eventually after so many bounces the light becomes to low of power to see. As well as (in technicality that this game doesn’t have) when you reflect a laser it diverges a bit and then that looses power over time where you can’t see it. So the game could be limiting its own sources. While also using a logic that happens in real life.

@@silvermousse9293 yes, the photons lose a little bit of energy with every bounce. Also when traveling through any medium they lose a little bit of energy as they get absorbed by different particles in its way.

It... kind of is though... An amount of the energy in the light is going into the mirrors, but a part of it is going into the air. Depending on how much the air likes to absorb or scatter light compared to how much the mirror likes to absorb or scatter light, it's quite possible that a laser "dissolves into the air" (to become ambient light or heat) more than it gets lost from reflection.

He intentionally changed it, why archive it in the comments section for literally no reason?

@@yaboyender6596 I, for one, am glad he did

@@yaboyender6596 ?

@@yaboyender6596 because some people care

Awesome game, is there a mobile version?

@@Echuwe No, sorry, just PC (windows only for now).

Is this game really about tweaking? Or are there supposed to be clean solutions to all the puzzles in your game?

@@Echuwe It’s about finding solutions. How you do that is up to you, but they all have solutions that I consider easy to execute.
