Can't wait to see "Suika Gerrymandered US Voting Districts Game"

I like how they started talking about how changing prefecture borders in Japan would affect them and the people watching but not the people of Japan

I found it pretty funny when they were contemplating "if Hokkaido's borders were different." Hokkaido's an island, guys. Its borders are the coastline.

The panic that entered Jacob's voice when he thought about Suika month lmfao

I love how clean the friction, piece replacement, and resolution of clipping is in this. I'd have to imagine the clipping handling is custom? The devs really tried to make sure stuff wouldn't shoot out & ruin your run, while still making sure that clipped pieces slide around other pieces properly and attempt to get out as stably as possible. These physics seem far more intentional than any other Suika-like we've seen so far.

Watching these guys sending ages talking about Hokkaido's shape and who decided that that's the territory it should own while knowing that Hokkaido is literally just the whole island and that the shape was "decided" before humans even existed is just so funny to me

okay, okay, fine, i SUPPOSE i'll support the channel beyond suika week...

I think one feature that could be interesting to add to a Suika-like is to take the bump feature from Space Pinball. For all those times that you just need something to move a little bit you can jostle the board to add some physics.

“End of suika week” into “We found a suika versus game” was definitely the most jarring back to back episodes

You have officially made me go to bed ten minutes later by playing two more games! congrats!

This is an interesting take on the Suika genre, a perfect end to Suika Week 2

10:10 Imma be honest, I’ve never ben consistently watched this channel until Suika

There comes a point where 15 different suika games becomes both a problem and a solution in life.

There's still the Touhou Suika game. This has to continue.

Imagine two time travelers changing the shapes of prefectures just to make Hokkaido better for a Suika game

The shape of Hokkaido is cutting into my sleep hours

Can’t wait for a best of Alpharad video where it’s literally just suika

Given that Hokkaido is the entire island (I think), it'd be a pretty wild history for the region to be shaped differently. Some volcano eruption thousands of years ago, maybe?

This ones pretty great with the animated faces and kinda educational

It would be funny if on the final day you guys play all the games people have been asking for but play it for like 10 seconds then move on to the next one

my colaboration to the perfect suika: if it has non-standard pieces, you need a button to turn them around before you drop them. you're welcome, Mr gold.

I am crossing my fingers and hoping they have that final episode of Wario World they said they recorded two years ago but never uploaded saved for December. Please…

an essential aspect of the perfect suika is a timer before game loss. enables some interesting risky plays and reduces launching rng changes like hold button, jostle mechanic, rotation all serve to make the game easier, so it may be worth adding an extra step to balance it

A couple of ideas I had for multiplayer Suika: 1. A shared next fruit sequence. Basically, the central divider between the 2 players' sides would have every upcoming fruit shown, maybe 10 or so depending on scale, so both players can see all of the fruits and try to make sure they get the fruits they need. 2. Instead of raising the floor for each merge, make the floor act like a set of scales. Each fruit would have a weight value, probably something like 2x the weight of the previous fruit. Each player would start with the base of their play area a quarter of the way up and each player's base would raise and lower based on the ratio of their side's weight to their opponent's

I love japan! Japan is where nintendo is from, and they made my favorite game Mario Strikers Charged for Wii which i cant wait for you guys to play on my birthday November 29th!!

i was gonna say "please play giraffe town" but then i remembered that there are only like 4 days left of non scheduled videos and theyre all gonna be suika-likes

Suika shapes has a charge meter and swap(hold) as well as mods you can apply, also the rising floor mode as speed mode (and friend/global leaderboards for everything) and 15 unique shapes without clipping. Looking forward to your video after I release the game tomorrow (12 est hopefully). No multiplayer yet but I'd like to add it if I can

I know that they constantly talk about how it's sad when you realise how long it's actually been and that talk usually doesn't effect me but when Jo asked if anyone was from when custom coliseum was a thing for some reason that was the thing that got me thinking about the past and how short time is and I got sad

i mean this in the best way: these suika videos have been putting me to sleep for the past few nights. It's so soothing to just listen to you both talk while faint sounds of the games play in the background. Thank you for continuing to play these!

I started watching the channel a week or two before Suika Week began, and I don't plan on stopping now. Even if I'm not at all interested in whatever game yall are playing, the two of you just have good conversations, it's fun to listen to in the background

The ice physics were super satisfying to watch

I watched nearly every video this year on gold just bc i love to have some video blabbing about anything in the background and your channel is just very consistent for that content

11:25 a reminder of an actual butterfly effect If Tetsuya Takahashi was allowed to use the script of Xenosaga as the script for Final Fantasy 8, he would've never had the idea for making an extended universe despite the fact Square wasn't going to give him a sequel for it And if square did give him funding and allowed him to continue Xenogears, he wouldn't've left to form Monolithsoft and went to Namco and if he was allowed with Namco to extend Xenosaga out past 3 games, he and Monolithsoft would not've left for the Wii and Nintendo and if Xenoblade Chronicles 1 wasn't part of the 3 games fans pushed for localization for via Project Rainfall, it wouldn't've sold well since it would've been a Japanese exclusive, and wouldn't make profit or impact to warrant Shulk in smash or the existence of Xenoblade X And without Xenoblade X gaining the attention of Nintendo and getting Monolithsoft's involvement with Breath of the Wild, its highly likely that BotW would not have released on time for Switch's launch, in the same completed state its in, or possibly even released at all Meaning you can blame Cloud Strife and English dub fans for Genshin Impact.

This reminds me so much of stack the states and I love that

When you bust, having the territories of Japan explode with a big boom effect might not have been the most well thought out move.

Studying gang👏 thank you for providing all these Suika like videos for me to keep on repeat while I learn about rectal administration of medications

I love finishing an Alpharad Gold video before the runtime should even be finished. Here's to a full week of 10's! (Wait no...)

他に日本語を話せる人がいるか知っていますか？ いたずらなクマさん！ Xbox360とPS3の場合

The tier list is going to be fantastic because doing 15 minute to 1 hour videos is not enough time to learn most games and get the quality out of them. As such, you guys should play Path of Exile exactly for that reason.

Don't worry guys; always watch the daily Gold video when I get home from work so be here all December lol

The peaks and valleys of the views of suika week vids has been the most interesting part of this.

I need you to know that I’m just a casual viewer on this channel but listening to ya’ll and watching you play a suika-like is the closest thing I’m ever going to get to enjoying ASMR. I think that may be why these videos are doing so well.

Welp, now the background footage of the year recap or tier list whatever or has to be a Suika game. It's just the perfect background stuff for any conversation it seems.

yoooooo thanks for shouting me out as a university student who currently has this video on in the background as I write my essay. glad to be involved

I think the most jarring back to back upload was Valorant to Murder of sonic, that sh*t was so funny seeing the notification after I watched the Valorant video. What a week

I just want to say I have never had so much anticipation to return home and watch my favorite series since I was 7. Im in my last school year

hey alpha i’ve watch so many of your videos i personally feel like you owe me money do you know how many times i’ve fallen asleep while watching alpharad gold. in the past 2 weeks ive woken up with your best of 2018 6 times that is so much money ive given you and i feel like you owe me

This one looks cool I’m surprised how well the shapes work for this.

"This is more for people to put on while doing homework and shit" Damn, I just got called out

The taking a dollar away thing joe mentioned is from a gag in the sitcom 3rd rock from the sun. If you look up 3rd rock tipping, it's pretty funny.

What an interesting two weeks this has been, I sure hope next week is the sims 4 week. It's because I have been asking for you fellas to play the sims 4 for 329 days!

I gotta say that its so nice for the shape to actually match the "hitbox" for once

The part about doing college homework is hilarious since I’m writing my final essay rn while listening to them LMAO

Oh man, Custom Colosseum. That's a blast from the past. Loved that series

This is such an interesting concept

so idea with the trash blocks to add onto the trash blocks and raising floor so like you get sent trash blocks and the floor raises but like the roof is taller to compensate and matching the trash blocks relowers your floor as opposed to just not doing anything like in whale game

Huh, i never expected this. Suika week is truly magical lmao

turning on notifications so i can support this channel beyond suika weeks 1&2 :)

21:30 “this is more for people to put on while they do homework in the back or something” me smoking a bowl in my parents’ garage paying extreme attention to everything that happens in the video: 😦

the voice clip when you get Hokkaido is so cute, this game has a lot of charm

that one night where jo just flipped a coin really threw me for a loop like in an “hmm, yeah i guess” type of way

Can something really be jarring when I fully do not conceptualize your existence beyond the video in front of my face?

Im so ready for the alpharad suika year

It's understandable jome didn't know dishwashers exist, but it's really not hard to guess what they do. Like, the name is literally DISH-WASHER. It's like if i asked what a rice cooker does. IT COOKS RICE

The most whiplash the channel has given has to have been mario 3 to mario 3 to mario 3 to mario 3 to mario 3 to mario 3 to mario 3.

There actually did used to be 2 or 3 prefectures where hokkaido is now but it absorbed the smaller one(s)

Here's to hoping the suika meta never ends

I have to take my parents to the airport tomorrow, the extra video length has deprived me of some sleep that I will need

i have been watching alpharad for 5 years which is almost 1/4 of my life.... which is wild. and strange to think about.

7:04 Literally using this video while I get ready for work and I leave when it ends 😭

Day 3 of waiting for Jacob's funny story

The most jarring upload was mario 3 to animal crossing. I was NOT ready for that

I think at this point this series is a podcast with suika gameplay in the background

We need a "Tetris Game" where the pieces that drop can combine with other pieces, like in Suika, and lines can also delete rows like in Tetris. The Pieces drop like in Suika, and there would have to be some weirder and more unique shapes the more you merge, and the goal would be to just play like in Tetris (unfortunately that means getting a watermelon doesn't matter at all, but I think it would be cool anyways)

Shapes are very interesting to play with!

holy crap i just realized i started college a little after gold began, i’ve got two semesters left after a week or so. that is somehow the smallest change in my life this year.

I watch almost every video all the way through while I'm eating breakfast. That's my story.

21:31 "this is more for people to put on while they do homework in the background" I slightly feel called out. I just cleaned one of my subject, which homework I finished to get the next one

being able to rotate pieces before dropping in a vs game would be really awesome

7:26 The hurricane effect. A change in a single hurricane's existance could cause a butterfly hundreds of miles away to flap its wings.

Who Wants to be a Millionare -> The Gamemill Avatar game -> Arcade games for Jaiden -> CSGO -> My Hero Ultra Rumble -> waifu zombies game -> Hades -> Luigi's Mansion. That was an insane week (+1). And that was only a month ago

The fact last custom coliseum was 2021 is simultaneously shocking how it was so long ago, but also shocking how recent it was seeing how there have been two rebrands since then.

Looking forward to the Alpharad Suika rebrand in 2024

you can definitely get your dream suika game commissioned by someone

As it's getting to the end i would like to remember just How good cake game was That and versus were s tiers in their own ways

I love consistent suika content

the specific call out for those who use Alpharad Gold vids as units of measurement was insane lmao

agreed about that tip thing, I'm so anal about my tipping that when I'm offered to tip digitally I turn it off and hand the driver a fiver personally (for a 15 dollar pizza so it's a 33% tip) just to make sure the company they work for isn't stiffing them.

Something that could be interesting in a suika game is if the game has different shapes,kinda like this one, then add a rotate piece option.

I actually had that mario ball toy that was representative of mario pinball…ahh how the fading days of adolescence trickled slowly away

33 year old checking in. I've been watching since the "how to play" smash 4 compilations. Fucking 8 years ago

Im genuinely gonna miss suika week :(

final day should be a sarcastic recap of footage from all the games people have asked for despite them having already been played, but like posted as pokemon mystery dungeon with a mystery dungeon thumbnail

i did not expect to get philosophical with hokkaido game

If you make a suika game, a fun mechanic might be the ability to shake the basket. Like you can have a power guard for how hard you wanna shake it and so you can try to shuffle your basket around but you also risk flinging stuff out of it

Hey yall did anyone else notice that when you lose in this suika it says boom and a big bomb goes off??

really calling me out doing my college homework with this in the background

I think suika games would be more fun if you only lost when a piece fully falls out of bucket and onto the side, so that way you could keep stacking past the walls if you can figure out a way to balance the pieces

custom colosseum was GOAAATED. i miss it every day

Days of waiting for alpharad’s funny story: 2
