>> RYAN: Welcome back, Internet people. My name is Ryan and today we are playing Shadow
Man for the PC.
There is a govi here that we are going to collect
very quickly.
>> SHADOW MAN: The dark souls... are mine. >> RYAN: I almost died
because of a crazy lady that shot things at us.
I'm not very impressed with her.
She will be hearing from my lawyer.
How do I get that one though?
Oh, this is that one room.
Well geez, I have no idea how to get that.
Um... hm. Well I suppose the only thing we can do is just jump- Oh, not jump on there.
Jump in the lava.
Anything...? Oh, there's a button there that I can't push because it's under water.
What else might there be?
Oh, a button that I can push.
Oh, look at that. It's going down.
Thumbs up. This is exciting.
And then this button will...
raise it up?
Raise it up high enough?
Weeeeee.
There it is.
Look at that, swimming very, very slowly towards it.
And a thingy for my troubles!
>> SHADOW MAN: The dark souls... are mine.
>> RYAN: And by dark souls- And by thingies I mean dark s- And by words I mean words.
And by cake I mean fishsticks and by- Buy local. It's good for your economy. I don't
know what I'm talking about.
Oh god, oh god.
Oh wait, they hurt me, but they just don't hurt me visibly all the time. That's not good
at all. [laughs]
Oh dear. OK, so I guess I can quite...
There we go. Game's giving me health sometimes.
I guess we can quite lackadaisically return...
I like how to the music just sort of decides whether or not it wants to be on or not.
' Anyway, I do believe that that's the last
thing that we can get in this level before getting the ground pound which is at 95 so
I need five more dark souls from somewhere.
I figure maybe we just head on down to the Temple of Life...
one place where I was rather disappointed. I thought I could get all of them but it looks
like I'm missing one here.
Let's just...
venture inwards
and proceed as normal, getting yelled at by those guys.
Walk down some very exciting hallways. People yelling at us all the way there.
And... can I just jump up to that?
Nope, almost.
Have to move over here.
And a dark soul is mine for my troubles.
So how many? I think... that is all 13.
What's in here?
Oh, look at this. This is a way back this way. OK. I see.
And these guys can't see me. That's wonderful.
But I don't really need to fight those. So...
What is next? I suppose... I don't remember seeing any lava...
I've got... can't do Engine Block yet...
Temple of Fire... Oh, yes. Temple of Fire.
>> LUKE: Come on, slowpoke!
>> RYAN: I have rather fond memories of the Temple of Fire.
Look at all this nonsense. I love the nonsense.
Oh, look at that. Swimming in the water. Water/fire.
Swimming in this red goop that isn't really anything when you think about it.
Oh and I have been longing to collect you, thingy.
Oh, and there's another one.
I have been longing to collect these for many, many a generation.
By many a generation I mean a few days at most.
OK, so under here there must be a path to go.
Or... maybe there just isn't?
I'm not seeing anywhere.
Nope. I had a good gander and I don't seem to see anyways to go at all.
So that's an unfortunate disappointment.
Unless this is where I'm meant to go. God, it's so dark. I can't even see.
Come on, Shadow Man. Climb up there.
You can do it, I think.
Maybe you just can't?
Or I'm supposed to jump. OK. Jumping...
Jumping is the solution there. [laughs]
Oh dear.
Oh, that was a mistake! I wasn't recording that. [laughs]
Just in the second room here I just sort of walked off of the edge
and I appear to be in a new and exciting locale.
There is a door or a grate. Something with all sorts of...
very square shapes on it.
And it is...
an exciting new chamber.
With some life that I desperately need because there was a really, really mean lady that
almost killed me.
Ooh.
What is down this...
A baton.
Can I... use the baton underwater?
I don't think I can. I don't think I want to just yet.
I'd really rather...
Wait a minute, wasn't there already...? Wasn't there already a baton in this level somewhere?
Or... no?
OK, so that's a...
That's a button I suppose?
Oh, that is a button. It's just really, really big! [laughs]
Oh, oh god.
That... OK. I can deal with that.
Oh, this one's making gloopy noises.
OK. Now that goes up to let me in here?
Or not.
Come on, Shadow Man. Come on. There you go.
Don't want to get hit by the fire.
Euunh! That last thing wasn't fire! OK.
I guess I don't really need to get that excited about these. It's not like they're really
that
complex or anything.
Woop!
Wooop!
I like when the noises break on those occasionally. I wonder if that's...
I wonder if that's Shadow Man or if that's my computer trying to play Shadow Man.
Uhh... How does this help me? What was the purpose of that? This is a new...?
This must be a new area? No, this looks pretty much identical to the area I just was.
Um... I must be... I must be missing something really obvious.
Oh, OK. When I pushed that button then this went down so I can try this... this baton
here.
Schink!
Now I'm here...
Oh, look at that. Look at that.
I should be able to get up on this...
platform... Come on, grab hold, Shadow Man.
Grab... Grab- No, don't be stuck back there...
No, Shadow Man...? Shadow Man? Shadow Man?
Hello? Hello, Shadow Man? Um...
I'm stuck. What do I do?
Oh, oh! Oh, thank god.
That was just awful. Oh.
Oh god.
Oh, it happened again. I need to get...
I really think I'm supposed to be getting up... up there...
Oh, I'm in the wall.
Oh god, this is... This is not going well for Shadow Man. OK.
Maybe I... Maybe I don't climb up there.
I just jump down... yeah.
This must be... This must be the actual solution.
Oh, it's... It's a treasure trove of nothing useful.
Well then. That was... pointless.
