As a 30 year old, I spent a large amount of my childhood playing this game. I always thought “sir fuzzy logic” was the toughest boss of all, and Dr. R was surprisingly easy. With that being said, I’ve never beaten them all on one try. Furthest I’ve been able to get was stage 10
I found grounder very hard as a kid, because I usuallly played on hardest. I was able to beat Easy mode no death as a 10 year old, but now I can’t seem to pull it off again.
I don't think that's correct Yeehaws happen when the enemy gets a double combo (& the pitch gets higher the more combos they make in a row) Yippies are basically yeehaws but for the protagonist instead. I think the yippies were in the original Puyo Puyo, to reference said game, whereas the Yeehaws are referencing how these robots & Dr. Robotnik himself take on their western facades, rather than how they look in other regions. There aren't really "sudden deaths" in Mean Bean Machine, however there can be certain deaths if an opponent is good enough!
Sonic is actually completely absent from this game. See that guy next to the word "SCORE"? He's called has bean. 10/10 naming. You play as him. I guess they were just too lazy to make a sonic sprite so they just re-used carbuncle.
Just realised that in this game, a skilled player can comfortably do an 8 chain on hardest in levels 2 to 6, but the RNG usually prevents you from doing a 9+ chain in all levels except level 1. It either releases only 4 colors until when it is 1 or 2 moves too late, either the AI yells a double "yeehaw" when your initially lucky RNG would normally let you do a 9 or 10 chain (so you are forced to set your incomplete 8 chain or the opponent wins), or the RNG gives you the 5th color in time, but ONLY if your chain is going to be cut before the 8th combo because of wrong placement, than normally be a 9+ chain. It's that the game makes it deliberately harder to reach a higher score, since after the 9th chain, it's 40K points per combo. Doing a 9+ chain after level 7 on hardest mode is nearly impossible, even for expert players.
WE ARE NOT WORTHYYYYY WE ARE NOT WORRRRRTHYYYYYYYYYY *stares at rubik's cube sitting precariously on my desk* .....you did this to me. YOU DID THIS!!!!!
I remembered this game existed and took a look at a video or two. Found people going Hardest with just single yippee combos... maybe a double yippee if they messed it up enough and got lucky later on. Disappointment. You gotta at least go for the quad-yippee... but it seems this person went as far as bloody possible with them. Nice.
Adeon Writer I understand. I wish Puyo Puyo would have caught on a little better in the US. My initial experience with it was Kirby's Avalanche for the SNES (which I still own and play through on occasion).
Just gave it the 1000th Like, which is what this masterful performance should have at the very least! Absolute humiliation for the CPU and catharsis for us watchers.
I’m 36, I played this game non stop as a kid. As well as Sonic PinBall, Jammit and college Hoops. My brother is 7 yrs older than me. My style on this game came from a mix of his and coconuts (the monkey robot). I won the game all the time. Played it even through high school. I still have it but am missing some pieces to my sega genesis. I’m going to order new controllers though and get back after it. As this has re inspired me. This guy is brilliant
I never knew what the weird dancing yellow thing was when i was younger... But now that I actually know this was a reskin (?) of the original Puyo I get that it's carbuncle now
Bro I remember playing this when I was like 4 or 5 I was so dumb back then I couldn’t get past the monkey or coconut dude and I remember I used to get so scared of the game over screen I stopped playing it
My avatar says that, but I like his face he made when I defeated him so I added it, however, it's not my record. My highest is still over a million. I achieved this about a couple months ago. BTW, Happy Halloween!!
