04:23what do you think josh what do you think this game i think my fingers red
04:32imagine this is just the premise of the game
04:34i mean he did call
04:38is it a short game yeah i'd assume the previous game that i saw from this guy it was labeled as a
04:44horror game but there weren't that there weren't like any like horror elements
04:47it wasn't skew
04:48what's that
04:50oh that's the elevator
04:51it's a chest
04:52whoa
04:53codes
04:54g1
04:56five zero nine four seven two
04:59there's a little overstep
05:07five zero five zero nine four
05:11seven seven two
05:15car wreck
05:19correct
05:20is that it
05:22all right run to the elevator bro we're about to die
05:24i just lost
05:28i'll go planet apes on your ass
05:29imagine like if real life you only had one red finger
05:34you only have one red finger one red and red finger civilization
05:38in a red finger civilization you only have one red finger
05:42what is parkour civ
05:43so the kilogram three kilograms makes your finger red
05:51and maybe seven kilograms makes it
05:54orange
05:55are we tripping
05:56no no no
05:57three kilograms makes it red
05:59so that
06:00turn the light off
06:02turn the light off
06:02turn the light off
06:03Turn the light off.
06:05Hmm.
06:08So I think I found the issue.
06:10What?
06:14Oh, shit.
06:15Holding the button, it gets your hand red as well.
06:17So if three kilograms makes your finger red,
06:20six makes it orange,
06:23um,
06:25nine makes it yellow.
06:28Are you okay?
06:29Hold on, hold on.
06:30Yeah.
06:30What about a cook?
06:31You fucking good, bro.
06:3212 makes it green.
06:35Skip blue since your hand's...
06:37Skip blue is fucking crazy.
06:39Your hand is gray.
06:40Skip blue.
06:42Skip blue.
06:44Your hand is gray.
06:45So 15 makes it blue.
06:50Okay.
06:5018 makes it indigo.
06:52What are you talking about?
06:5318 makes it indigo.
06:54What are you talking about?
06:55And 21 makes it violet.
06:56So you're treating this less like a spectrum
06:59and more like a frequency.
07:01No.
07:02The only spectrum I know is the...
07:06Internet provider?
07:07I was gonna say that.
07:08What if we had two hands?
07:09Wouldn't that be cool?
07:09What if we had two...
07:10I got two hands,
07:13one for the...
07:14and one for the...
07:16M6.
07:184-3-0-9-1-2.
07:20What if you, like, get it wrong
07:22and it just fucking alerts the giant penis monster?
07:28Then he, like, jumps down
07:29and he fucking touches you inappropriately?
07:32Maybe it's appropriate touching.
07:33Then he touches you appropriately?
07:35Yeah, maybe he does.
07:36He caresses you in a consensual manner.
07:40Hey, touching is in the eyes of the touchy.
07:43Touchy.
07:43Touching is in the eyes of the beholder.
07:45No, touching is in the eyes of the touchy.
07:50Honestly, I like the premise of this game.
07:52It's just, like, a calm little...
07:55Yeah, I like game.
07:56It's definitely, like, one of those, like, slow games
07:58where you have to, like, take things slow.
07:59Slow burn.
08:07Wait, are we good, bro?
08:12Slow burn.
08:18Damn.
08:25We're going back to the first level
08:32to take Red Finger off the elevator.
08:35Off the itch.io page.
08:37Whoa.
08:38I thought this was a Steam game.
08:39What? No.
08:40The fuck?
08:41It's an itch.io game.
08:42The only Steam game we played was the first one.
08:44I guess that is true.
08:45This game's interesting.
08:46What do you think, Josh?
08:47Do you have a red finger?
08:49I have a...
08:49If you have a red finger, it might be chlamydia.
08:51I have a magenta finger.
08:53Also, it still might be chlamydia.
08:54What the fuck is this?
08:55Oh, C9.
08:56C9.
08:57Ain't C9 that, uh...
08:58C9 is the guy from Invincible.
09:01C9!
09:02C9!
09:027, 3, 0, 1, 6, 5.
09:058, 6, 7, 5, 3, 0, 9.
09:08What?
09:09Can you fucking not?
09:09I'm trying to fucking pay attention.
09:12You bitch.
09:12You're a bitch, bitch.
09:13It's that shit Prince said in the M.S.A. 0 video.
09:16M.S.A. 0 video.
09:17You fucking bitch.
09:19You're spamming it, bro.
09:20You fucking bitch.
09:21You fucking bitch.
09:22You fucking bitch.
09:24Get the fuck off my line.
09:27See you, you saw...
09:29Uh...
09:29Say it, I don't want to get the fuck off my line, chef.
09:36Hmm.
09:37I don't know, this game's kind of interesting.
09:41I'm just...
09:42Wondering how far it goes.
09:45I think if you catch that, like, early enough, you don't...
09:47The monster doesn't even, like, come down.
09:49Touch you inappropriately.
09:52The cookie monster.
09:54No, the cookie monster.
09:56The monster.
09:56I think it's fine.
09:57What the fuck was that?
10:07I lied.
10:07It's not fine.
10:09You think, like, a job like this, you even need money?
10:12Turn the light off.
10:16You think, like, with a job like this, you even need, like, to go home or need money or anything?
10:21What the fuck?
10:22It's kind of like a self-fulfilling job, like, you just do it.
10:26I don't think you live.
10:27I want to know what happens when your, uh, finger...
10:30I don't want to find out, because unfortunately, this could be a game where, like...
10:34You just instill is.
10:35Your fucking hand explodes.
10:36We gotta go back to the start of the game, you know what I mean?
10:41Yeah.
10:44Your fucking hand explodes.
10:45What?
10:47Is that a timer?
10:49Yeah, what?
10:51What the fuck?
10:52What the fuck?
10:54Hey, hey, our hand.
10:56What?
10:56Don't do this.
10:57Our hand.
10:58Oh, yeah, you're right.
11:01Don't give me a fucking, like, 20-second timer to run over there and do it.
11:04I'm not gonna be able to do it.
11:06Nah, I'd probably be fine, honestly.
11:10Bro, you're fucking with me right now.
11:11Turn the light off.
11:12Turn the light off.
11:12Turn the light off.
11:14Never mind.
11:15Alright, time is fair.
11:359, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20.
11:45I don't know.
11:49Clover!
11:52Why is she meowing?
11:53I don't know.
11:55Wait, why is the elevator going up now?
11:57I don't know.
12:01I think we did what we needed to do and we're, like, returning to the surface.
12:04Yeah, let's...
12:05Yeah, let's...
12:10That's true.
12:12What is this game, bro?
12:15Red Finger.
12:16Like, you know the name of this game.
12:17Star Finger.
12:19Star Finger!
12:21I'm just locked in right now, honestly.
12:23You're...
12:23You're Red Finger?
12:24You're Mr. Red Finger?
12:25Yeah, my finger's Red-ing.
12:27I'm Red-ing!
12:27I'm Red-ing!
12:29I'm Red-ing!
12:35Clover!
12:37The premise of the game is to play it.
12:41The premise of the game is to play it.
12:43You're washing your hands.
12:44Hey, your finger.
12:47Your finger.
12:48Your finger!
12:53My finger!
12:58I wonder if that's it.
12:59Once we get back to the top.
13:01It's gonna turn out, like, we saved the world from, like, nuclear destruction or, like, blowing up.
13:06We're a hero.
13:07I mean, I wouldn't be that upset, like, doing this, like, every day.
13:11It was, like, a full-time job.
13:12I feel like it just wasn't that bad.
13:13Bushering him.
13:14Holy shit.
13:16Let me just throw this cat in the room real quick.
13:18Oh, that's it.
13:19The screen darkened.
13:20Oh, what?
13:21We beat the game.
13:23Congratulations on successfully completing your work day.
13:26See you tomorrow.
13:29Or, oh no, you've quit?
13:31How could this happen?
13:3372 hours for Ludum Dare.
13:35Thank you for playing.
13:36Aw, that was kind of cute.
13:38Honestly?
13:39Not that bad.
13:40Graphics? Good.
13:41A good, like...
13:42It's not a story.
13:43Yeah.
13:43I mean, I guess that's what you make of it, you know?
13:46All right, now let's see what happens when my finger explodes.
13:48Okay, I guess that is true.
13:52What if it just turns, like, different colors?
13:53I'm hoping it fucking pops like a balloon.
13:57The guy screams in pain and we get a jump.
14:01I just want to see what the jump scare looks like.
14:12Either your, like, hand fucking explodes, or, like, it just stops you from being able to use it.
14:17You know?
14:19Like, I don't think there's an in-between.
14:21Yeah, I know what you mean.
14:23Honestly, though, it's not even that bad of a game.
14:26Dude, a nice view.
14:28No, I think it's a really interesting game.
14:30I need more.
14:31I need, like, a full, like, seven-day work week.
14:33And more monsters.
14:34All right, here we go.
14:39This is what happens when I read my finger.
14:46Do something, bro.
14:47Oh.
14:48Yeah, it just stops you.
14:55No.
14:55Damn, that's it.
14:57I don't care that much.
14:59What do you think, Josh?
15:00Based or cringe?
15:01Based.
15:01Based?
15:02You get in, you get out, and it's a quick little adventure.
15:05Quick little five-minute Alex-Josh adventure.
15:07It's like Sneaky Link.
15:08What?
15:10All right, thank everyone for watching.
15:11I think that's going to be it.
15:12That was Red Finger.
15:13Kind of interesting.
15:14Again, very quick little game.
15:16I think we'll go ahead and end it there.
15:17What do you think, Josh?
15:18Yeah.
15:19No, any commentary?
15:20Expert-level commentary?
15:23So if you hold your finger against a three-kilogram button for a long time, it turns red.
15:28I can get behind that, yeah.
15:32I spent the whole video trying to think of a Red Finger pun, and I literally couldn't
15:35think of anything.
15:36Oh, you know, like, Green Thumb, Red Finger, now we need the other three.
15:40There we go.
15:44Like, Green Thumb is, like, nature.
15:45Yeah.
15:46Red Finger is this.
15:47What are you, like, fucking Captain Planet?
15:50Yeah, fuck it.
15:51All right, goodbye, everyone.
15:53Bye-bye!
15:53Meeeeee!
