I played 100% of Bugsnax, and it was wild. Is it cute? Is it just a bit weird? Is it a full-blown horror nightmare? The answer is yes.

Besides just being a cute and sometimes kinda heavy game, it's also really really fun at emergent gameplay. Game basically tells you "You can catch a snak like this" but half the time you do some weird mistake and manage to make a snak vulnerable in some Rube Goldberg catastrophe. A lot of fun I had was just randomly misclicking or messing up and finding out it actually worked for catching something.
Same I didn’t realise you could launch the snak trap into the cheepoofs so I launched a bunger into it 😂
So two things, the Triangle Key you got on the Broken Tooth Isle, if you opened the mail box, you would have gotten a quest to find the door for the key, which will give more lore. If you play through the game, without doing any side quests, the Grumps would be too depressed while fighting the Bugsnax off, so they would eat them instead, until you watch as their body parts slowly fall off until they die, leaving only you and Filbo in the end.
you can still defend the Grumps like that, and YOU CAN leave with all the Grumps alive without any side quests
I thought it worked the other way round where the more they were transformed, the more they desired to eat them.
There are puzzles in the place where you find the door for the triangle key and there is a secret snack cappachutal it's fast and if scared it will run to a different part on the map and it dodges your traps
@@noahriley4518 the more you feed them, the less 'health' they have. But if you do all their side quests, they're basically immortal for the final sequence.
@@shibadawn oooh okay
its crazy how bugsnax is unironically such a complex/deep iteration of a capturing/hunting game, with every bugsnax having its own behaviors, patterns, likes/dislikes, interactions, and intelligence.
@@latte_cookie4071 theres a genre of games about capturing or trapping creatures/entities, such as some of the Pokemon ones bugsnax, despite looking pretty basic/simple, is actually super complex in terms of its capturing mechanics
@@latte_cookie4071 Get smarter
I know right? This game was so overshadowed by its reputation as the "funny novelty food game" or the "unexpected eldritch horror game" That the actual gameplay got completely ignored In monster catchers like Pokemon the catching mechanics are ironically pretty much there just as a formality and offer almost no gameplay. Bugsnacks did a system that fits so naturally that in hindsight I am absolutely floored no one has tried either before or since, and the fact I haven't seen any videos discussing it is an absolute sin.
this game makes me wanna goon btw
I don’t fully agree. As fun as it is of a game, some bugsnax are just raw variations (strabby and pale strabby) exact same catching procedure (just put a snack trap in the path of a crapple or weenyworm) and some can just be cheezed altogether (why find a stewdler to thaw a scoopy banoopy when you can just attach the trip wire to a fire?) Above all, my main issue is the lack of variety at the end of the game. Almost all late game bugnsax with complex catching procedures are either just spicy or frosty. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still an amazing game, I just don’t find the behavior variety to be jaw-droppingly epic
I'm positively surprised by all the solid % for the achievements, that shows that people really enjoyed the game.
yeah 30% for some of the hardest to get is actually nuts for the average game. Lots of dedicated fans!
@@FloydsonYTthat’s how you know these games are so well made. It’s an absolute gem of a game for sure
Good job getting 99% hey
One of the few games I 100%. It was so fun and it suddenly turning dark was great. I need to go do the DLC some day since I beat the game before it came out.
@@FloydsonYT ya missed something..... in the tip of the wreck by a beach Jump into the 3 angles and find..... the legendary drink.... COFFFEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
It's funny, IIRC if you do not solve a lot of their problems the villagers just resign themselves to thier fate and just . . . give up during the ending, literally falling apart into snax. Like the rest of the game it's surprisingly depressing
They will survive if you don't suck at the defense parts and Filbo and The Reporter are the only ones who cannot die.
The voice cast are incredible as well! I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that not only did Roger Craig Smith voiced Snorpy, but Yuri Lowenthal voiced Chandlo as well!
Sam riegel as gramble!
i was about to comment this as well, such amazing voice work. absolutely lost my shit over sam riegel
@@nkoote Have to be honest, I had to look him up, and he played Donatello from the 2003 TMNT AND Phoenix Wright in Ace Attorney!? I can DEFINATELY see why you were excited about the voice actor!
@@CooperGal24 He's also notoriously part of Critical Role, a VERY major (if not the major-est) dungeons and dragons stream. His ad-reads for it are fantastically stupid, and he's a very smart (and chaotic) player. I think that show put him on a lot of people's radars.
@@Ken-fd7ml Really weird hearing the FCG voice a year before Crit Role S3 came out.
"Also, you're legally dead. Might wanna clear that up soon." omg im dying 🤣🤣🤣
I've never seen this game before - but my first impression was: - "Having the characters get their body parts replaced with whatever they are eating seems horrifying. Is this one of those things, that seems just jolly and fun for children, but if you actually think about it, it's actually quite terrifying?" - And then I eventually got to the end of the video... Yeah, no.. Great video, I love these :)
This was an odd game, but surprisingly fun and detailed for a game about sentient food
If you think about it.. most of our food is sentient. At least before we make it easier to eat
@@keroki932that depend on your definition of sentient
“I would hug your cactus facsimile. But it would only hurt me further.” Funniest character I bugsnax right here.
42:46 I love that you aren’t skipping over the details such as making your house and talking with the npc’s. Too many let’s plays or completionist videos skip that kinda atuff…. And those things are the point of this whole game.
!!!
theres a bad ending and a bunch of secret lore involving the triangle key you found. (entrance can be found in boiling bay. and theres at least one more bugsnax to catch there.)
I feel so happy seeing how many vids you are pumping out its actually insane how you’re pumping out so many vids that are also super long
I hope he dosnt burn himself out tho!
@@Thebeezzkneezz. fr fr, I remember when I first discovered his channel always exited whenever he would post because it would be such a long wait, but it would always be worth it, and now he’s posting like crazy it just makes majority of my days better
Well i hope he can get all of that juicy December ad revenue and then rest a bit 😂
@@suan333 oh yeahh. these could've been recorded months ago to pump out in december for more revenue 🤔 I hope he doesn't just straight up take a break for january like tom scott tho, that's lame.
So terrifying interpretation of "cloudy with a chance of meatballs". Almost all video I was waiting for them to start eating each other...
Funny you mention that, it's heavily implied (If not outright stated) that the ancient civilization that Triffany is researching turned to cannibalism once they figured out what Bugsnax were, due to the bones she finds having teeth marks. I don't know if it was brought up in the video and I'm too lazy to watch it over again to find out.
This is like if Junji Ito made a muppets show. A parasite that forces you to crave it uncontrollably that transforms you slowly into body horror monsters...Gosh
19:23 "Welcome to the party, Wambone!" "We are not friends"💀
Wambus: “bugsnax will never love you”. Gramble: “THATS WHY YOUR WIFE LEFT YOU”!
Me: 👀 Filbo: 👀
Bro got roasted
👁️👄👁️
I cant play the game I don’t have enough money. :(😢😢😢😢😢😢
Me *looks at gramble* Filbo *looks at gramble*
I remember randomly trying this game because it was free through PS+, and having a lot of fun with it. Definitely one of those games I feel most people would ignore and not realize they were missing out on something genuinely good.
I'm sorry but 'I LIFTED YOUR CRIB DAWG!' gets me every time
Funfact: you can use the hook to grab the Trip Shot without getting trapped. IT'S INTENDED, bcuz Snorpy even compliments you if you do that (you can grab the trap BEFORE you need to, on top of that)
idk if its intended, i think the developers just accounted for either possibility
@@sas.tronaut5055 maybe, but it's still a fun fact that i found out about by ACCIDENT
34:50 the reason why they got stunned was because they were upset that you captured their friend, so they dived straight at you, but you walked away and they missed
like this comment for free pasta
didn't work :(
Hmmm what type
Gimmeee!!!!
I need ur best man
Sht, got scammed
Bugsnax?? And Floydson??? This may be the greatest gift the internet has ever handed to me... (thank you for your hard work as always, Floydson! Your humour and good nature never fails to put a smile on my face!)
They dont say it outright but Floofty actually goes by They/Them
I was about to go sleep but I guess it's time to binge some great aussie gameplay!
"Ahhh I'm out of hot sauce. Guess I'll just set myself on fire"
"Also you're legally dead. You might wanna clear that up soon." Caught me off guard lol.
YES I needed more people doing content of this acid trip of a game ❤
I absolutely love this game!! The gameplay is fun and the characters are hilarious, it’s also a treat to see people play it for the first time who are unaware of the psychological horrors of Bugsnax. ❤
my friend once told me "bugsnax game of the year" and i asked him what kind of drugs he was on because i'd never even heard of it. i played it and i had NEVER AGREED MORE. bugsnax 10/10 game top tier
I feel like the insane amount of detail and the silly/serious balance makes a lot more sense when you realize this team also made Octodad haha
You only 99%ed it, there’s a secret bugsnak called cappucheetle, which you need the key for.
BTW: the game also tracks what Bugs are in Gramble's ranch (shown by a fence icon on the Bug's portrait in the Bugapedia), and is counted as a second form of catching although the game doesn't give anything for "ranching" all Bunsnax also the Bugs stay in the ranch, even after they all go missing that one time
Doesn’t give us anything? My friend, getting to pet them all is a reward enough
can you even ranch all the bugsnax? the boss ones like megamaki and mama mewon you have to feed them immediately iirc
@@yunyomal After you finish the quest linked to a Legendary Bugsnax a statue of it will spawn and interacting with it lets you can refight and recatch them, the final donation request by Gramble requests that you do just that
ITS ABOUT TIME I’ve been waiting for this since the first 100 days play through on your channel. Glad it’s done!
They should give this game 2 player coop, me and my sister love this game to bits and have it both on seperate consoles. I think it would really revive this game (last time they dropped the dlc and the community arose from its slumber). I think everyone would be happy with that, even the company because more people would buy it to play with thier friends.
I'm glad you had fun and had a good laugh at this game, it's pretty hilarious. ...you know, aside from the whole eldritch abomination below your feet.
1:38:18 was not expecting to hear my hyperfixation mentioned but i'm overjoyed nonetheless, GREAT video man
I absolutely love your videos! I have been rewatching the Raft and Stardew movies over and over again and this Bugsnax 'movie' is another one that I just love to put on replay!
I have been watching this channel for a year now and videos like these never disappoint me. Idk how many times I have come back to this video and rewatched it 💀💀
I’ve watched rt play this at least 5 times and i’m still gonna watch this i love bugsnax
Your videos provide me with pure unadulterated happiness. Your voice, cadence, and humour, tickle the brain somethin’ fierce. Keep up the amazing work Floydson!
maybe im a little dumb and fell asleep while you discovered this but . if you ever have off time PLEASE find the lock for the key you got on broken tooth. its so worth it if you care about the story. this was great to watch ♥
I totally forgot about that random key I found and never looked into what it was for :( Missed opportunity!
@@FloydsonYT go to boiling bay and launch yourself on the roof of the ship that floofty was at. Then, walk off the narrow part. And boom you’re in the triplicate space( it requires the key)
That sprout rug really pulls the room together.
i love your content so much. Each video is the perfect length and the commentary and clip composition are excellent. I cant wait for the next vid!
54:53 Nah... You did not just call the Sodie D a Fanta😭
1:22:38 ya know what would be neat…. Is if they made a parody of Jurassic world or what ever and make it so that the next game is on the mainland where the bugsnax have spread! Basically, you’ve got grumps eating bug snaxxs and turning into feral beasts! You gotta defeat the grumpinati. Or something like that. The grumpsnax are more complex, got more characters. New environments where natures taking over civilization once again.
"Flying flatbread knocked me out of my blimp." Y'know, I can honestly say that I never thought I'd be hearing those words.
Always love your content. How you play a game to 100%, write a script for voice over and edit all so quickly is awesome. Just keep the quality high even if they aren't so frequent.
I have no idea what this game is, but it’s Floydson so I’m here for it
Baby wake up, Floydson just dropped another banger
Chandlo being "i can fix him" to Floofty is NOT something i expected but goddamn thats hilarious
I 100%ed this game and the free bigsnax dlc. I beat rhe bigsnax dlc during its launch where the boss of the dlc was completely bugged out since it didn't load everything in the correct way. Felt like a huge accomplishment for actually managing to figure out how to beat it in such a buggy state. (For those who don't know or remember, the boss of bigsnax dlc was heavily bugged on launch to the point you would have to be a mad person to be able to actually beat it or followed a guide by someone else who managed to figure it out. In rhe fight giant sprout is already there when he isnt supposed to be yet and when thrown by cheddasaurus Rex it it wouldn't get to where you think the game is telling you to put sprout when in reality it wanted you to use the cheddorbs until the maze section which due to sprout being prematurely dropped into the fight can result in the game making sprout fall beneath the floor and also the flag for the maze to let sprout go through it was not activated ao sprout would phase through the walls and out of bounds. Along with other errors in the fight. It was chaotic until they released a patch that fixed the fight loading sprout early which caused the bugs in the fight to happen.
Ahh bugsnax. I’m so happy there’s still new playthroughs being uploaded!!!
Wow, Bugsnax really is a deep cut of our consumer oriented society
Filbo getting yeeted by that bunger will never not be funny 😂😂😂
10:07 "Soon the little dingus came for a snooze, and if you snooze you lose." I don't know why but I find this sentence funny
Hey, dude, I've been watching you recently and I gotta say that I love your videos! Seeing you playing these games makes me wanna play them as well and get the 100% of them, but it's definetly a lot of work XD Luckily, we have your videos :3 Keep up the good work ❤
I feel like you made the names for the bugs, they all sound so good with your voice
I’m a huge huge huge fan of this game and this is my first video of yours, honestly really like your content. congrats on recruiting the bugsnax fans, I salute you sir. it also makes me so happy to see someone else get caught in the vocal stim trap of repeating everything you hear in this game.
Thank you so much for making these 100 Days and 100% videos because they are perfect and you take such care in making them! These videos are so relaxing to listen to and perfect for long work days that need something fun to listen too! Thank you again and have a lovely season ❤
The bad ending is so heartbreaking and horrifying...
Fun fact we figure out how much calories food has by blowing it up, so SOMEONE blew up the bugsnax
We’d like a moment to tell you about
Found your channel a little while back and have been loving the content. Definitely one of the best gaming KZheadrs I’ve come across and I look forward to every new video🙏
Chandlo and Snorpy beloveds.
FLOYDSON PLS POST ANOTHER VIDEO I MISS YOUR VIDS
It's so hard to pick a favorite video you've made, but I think this one is your best-made one! I can tell you're getting better with each video, and you were already fantastic before. Thanks for the awesome times- Always excited for the next one!
once again, your quality of video editing is top tier, i enjoy your content so very much, and only hope to see ever more of it! you might not upload much or very frequent. but when you do, i know what my next few hours will be going with!
Just finished this game about a month ago, I truly loved everything about it and was genuinely sad when I finished it! I was pleased to see this pop up on my recommended :)
Always glad to see one of my favorite games get recognized :3
i love the part where they bugsnaxed all over floydson
these videos are such a comfort to me. I think I have already re-watched this one at least four times.😂❤
Floydson uploading weird horror show of murderous evil? BEST TUESDAY EVER!
thanks for the awesome content as usual; i must suggest tho, either 1440p or 4K content would be really awesome to see on this channel!
This game not only tries to normalize eating bugs by associating the idea of food with them, it also teaches to indulge in the most basic urges in a wrapping of fun.
I'm glad that I'm not the only one who made this connection.
not sure how this game is trying to normalize eating bugs when the whole twist of it they're disturbing parasites and this is actually body horror tbh
Bro I was waiting for this video for a very long time. Thanks alot for all the hard work floydson I hope your having a good day
I just recently found your channel through your '100 hours of Subnautica' video. I love your vibe! I'm definitely gonna be watching a lot more of your stuff. Also, this is totally a compliment, your voice is very nice to fall asleep to :P I like to put on KZhead videos to help me fall asleep and your videos have been very nice to doze off to! Lol Anyway, I'm glad I found your channel and I very much look forward to future content!
Have a pleasant day
I am so obsessed with this playthrough I can't wait to get this game!! Floydson you are my favorite gaming youtuber ever
I love how you talked about how you caught different snax. Its so interesting
i enjoy your videos so much, i’ve watched your raft movie as it’s my favourite game and i loved it. Could you consider doing a slime rancher play through? there’s an ending to the game and lots to do!
Who knew I needed Bugsnax in my life?? Great video...loves it❤❤
Had the time to fully watch this video earlier today now I'm about to fall asleep to it, genuinely love your content and tend to rewatch your videos over and over. Keep it up💙 Also goodnight :)
100 days of Slime Rancher 2
Great way to start the day! Finals studying can wait a little bit
Loved that bunger royale, it made me remeber that one conversation in pulp fiction where they talked about mcdonalds
i cramped through the whole video in one sitting and for the ending it was so worth it. great video like always
what a savior my man, yt keeps recommending me junji ito stuff and ofc i watch them all and read the manga.
Love the vids Floyd they're very entertaining keep it up!
So happy you play this I was really hoping you'd played at some point
I just want to say, thank you for introducing me to Bugsnax. I have basically been binging Snak content since you released this (I even bought the game) and I do not regret a single second of it.
Literally made my day better seeing a new Floydson video is out!! Don’t know what this game is, doesn’t matter if I did, the excitement is real !!
I often put Floydson's videos on in the background while I'm working in the day.. and I have to say this game sounds like total nonsense when you're just listening to it like a podcast lol
i look forward to you learning how much you actually missed... secrets abound near the old pirate ship...
one of my favourite games!! so excited to see youve played it
Looking forward to your next video! Your content is such a gem
I feel like the only reason you called the kiwi snack a weirdo is our national rivalry 😂 lovely content as always Floydson ❤
It's always a good day when Floydson drops
These 100% and 100 day videos are great. Makes me wonder on if you plan to continue playing Dinkum or maybe try 100% Super Life RPG.
I love bugsnax so much 😭😭😭 thank you for playing and having so much fun
there are also a few secret missions, for example, setting all the barn snacks on fire, napping until midnight while less then 10 minutes away, or stealing all the toilet paper
