I had a case study on Grow Island. My task was to analyze and write a High Level Document on it. Grow Island is a "commercial" of sorts to encourage people to learn science, engineering and those kind of fields. I don't remember for which institute. The game is "designed" in such a way that combines all fields to work together in order to develop civilization and progress and human beings. This is roughly the essence of the game. I had this case study about 6 years ago...

wait fr these games are the reason why I was interested in science and humanities Like science wouldn't make sense if you didn't do it in a humanized way And humanities vise versa wouldn't make sense if you don't apply some science and logic to it If I haven't encountered these games my life would have less of a reason rn

I loved the grow series back in the day. It was always fun trying different orders out seeing what kind of weird combination would happen. Then using trial and error to try and find the how to get max level on everything

The GROW series is legitimately my favorite flash games ever. I loved them so much as a kid, they were mesmerizing and beautiful to look at, and the process of figuring out the correct order to place stuff in made me feel so smart. I dearly hope their creator will manage to cure their health issues!!

Man. This REALLY takes me back to when i was young and played these games. Thank you for helping me remember a wonderful game from my childhood

I remember searching for a whole year for this game because I could never remember. I loved these type of games as a kid. Thank you for the nostalgia

I'm so glad you speed ran these games. I played these a long time ago and forgot what they were called. I remember going through all the different endings and getting stuck on getting the best endings

I always used to play old classic games, especially In my childhood, good times.

Ive been searching for this game for over a decade. I knew so little about it but i loved it as a kid. I actually just shed a tear finally having found it again.

God this hit me with a wave of nostalgia I didn't know I needed 😭 my dad and I used to spend hours (more like an hour but at the time it felt longer) playing these kindsa games together and I miss that 🥺

Oh my God, dude, thank you so much! I loved this series SO MUCH when I was a kid, and I recently really wanted to play it again, but I completely forgot what it was called. This is amazing.

Holy crap I played this game so much as a kid!! A scary amount actually considering how small the game is

These were literally my favorite flash games from back in the day so this is a huge nostalgia trip, thanks for playing them

This brings back memories. I've been recommended a lot of nostalgia from this channel recently and I love it.

nostalgic and satisfying because i get to see the correct solutions. good tempo and narration. overall good job!

I used to love playing these grow games!

All the GROW series are usually always a delight to play and are always delightful. I hope you speedrun my personal favorite GROW Park

I LOVED those games as a child!!! I played all of them for hours until I managed to get it right, I tried it 100 times over and over again. I'm so nostalgic right now, thank you!!😍

you are my absolute herooooo i was looking for this game for months and now you just poped out on my suggested vids

Grow valley was definitely my fav' I liked the alternative ending.

These were the games I lived for as a kid. I always hope for more of them still.

I've been (passively) looking for this game again for months, i love you for this

i loved the grow games as a kid!! cube, island, tower, valley, rpg... i remember looking up walkthroughs for them on here even cuz i sucked at getting the correct order lol. i never figured out what you were supposed to do in grow rpg after maxing everything out though and i'm kicking myself now seeing that you were literally just supposed to move after all that haha

Omg I was searching for this game for years and now here you are, finally found it, it has so much memories from my childhood ❤️

I've always loved these games and "Eyezmaze" deserves all of the intention he can get! Especially after his struggles with heart condition! So very much PLEASE Speedrun the other GROW games and Speedrun the secret endings for these to!

I loved these games so much when I was younger. The concept was so simple yet it kept amazing me how it felt like the game had unlimited endings.

Holy moly ive been looking fir this game for years!! I played it a ton back in the day, so cool to see it again

This brings so many happy memories. I remember playing Grow Island a lot back in the day. Thanks for the nostalgia ❤

I used to play Grow Island with my mom, after school. We'd both sit down and try and figure everything out, it was great :)

you have absolutely no idea how MANY years i've been desperately searching to find this game only to have this video randomly pop up on my feed out of the blue. i thought it was a fever dream. from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU.

Gosh this takes me back! Always loved the GROW series ❤

I had extreme dejavu while watching the first one. I feel like I remembered something from ages ago but I still can't really recall anything specific. I remember building a road, making a river, having lava trails. Guess I played something similar but I am also sure I didn't play any of these games. Feels so weird to remember something that I've completely forgotten

Oh god the nostalgia of this game servers, I miss these games? Albeit I didn’t even know rpg existed

I love the grow series and It give so much good vibes and actually helped me learning to care about hard working, relationship, patience and to care about the enviroment. Plus It's VERY creative

Thank you for posting this! I had been thinking about these games and the site they're on a while back after seeing some of andy lands vids. Drove myself nuts trying to remember the name, but couldn't find it til now

Oh my god, the grow games were my nostalgia. I remember playing them on Hooda Math ;u;

You can't just brain me with years old nostalgia like that

Eyezmaze always created such beautiful games. Simple elegant design that could evolve into really complex interactions. Love that it's getting some good recognition !

Grow... Big Nostalgia there. Would love to see the rest of the series speedruned!

God the GROW series is so amazing.

Yooooo i used to try and play this when i was like 9 but never quite figured it out

The grow series was my absolute favorite thing when I was a little kid on those flags game websites. I just loved putting the things down in different orders and seeing what would happen. I think the grow cube was my favorite, and I also remember something about a tower? That one was really fun too

omg i loved the grow games so much my favorite is the one where you make a city with a massive underground area

I forgot this game existed.. This is literally my childhood

Ohh, I remember these games! There was actually another one featuring a guy that gets sick and you have to give him stuff in the right order.

U just gave me flashbacks to my childhood with that first one. Thnx recommendations!
