And having a underdeveloped trash pile of Launcher. To explain further: the launcher was programmed to go through the files of your PC and send then to epic without you knowing. Only after being called out tim Sweeney said on reddit: " we know of this behavior but didn't see it as an issue until now where it became common knowledge so we will change it" because they didn't want to use steam API so they grabbed everyone's data right from the drive without permission. Then saying Steam is a monopoly and want fairer prices for devs and so on...while then going and buying exclusive rights to shift the majority to their platform. Then completely disregarding the features steam offers and develops for everyone for free to use like proton (which let's devs support Linux without needing to put development time in it themselves), Workshop and cloud saves. But offering no features of themselves. And so on. Then epic bought easy anti cheat, and the first thing they did was stop Linux development. Epic is a steaming pile of corporate lies and deception. Hope i could answer your question.

"Bridge" - verb - to _bridge_ two or more disconnected sides of a problem or idea. A _bridge_ can also be a musical device to connect the beginning to the end of a piece of music. The common theme is here is gravity - the bridge is that you can manipulate the orientation of gravity to the platform.

This is another example of a very cool game with a novel take on what is basically your old school labyrinth game. I bet this was someone's "imma try this in coding" and it turned into this.

I remember playing this game a long time ago on Xbox... It's an excellent game and was extremely well made. It definitely deserves a second game with more puzzles even if it doesn't follow any story and was just various abstract puzzles in the same style.

I prefer 'Guess and Check'. The engineering part is in how you select your initial guess based on prior knowledge, and subsequent guesses based on the information from previous guesses.
I hope you do more episodes of the bridge, until you finally find the final boss, the actual bridge

The starting is just yesterday. In the United States, New Jersey was hit by an original 4.8 earthquake and many aftershocks, felt in a lot of the surrounding states
I've been playing this game off and on for about a decade. At first I'd play maybe 5-10 minutes here and there, every month or so. But it gets way harder the deeper you go in. I've gotten to the point where in order to progress, I have to sit down and replay my way up to where I'm so I basically know what I'm doing again. I've gotten past where I can play casually, and have to really put some brain effort in to progress... so I haven't played in about 4 years. I'm not a "puzzle game" guy. I'm a strategy or rpg game guy, so puzzles bore me pretty quickly, hence why I'd play this for a few mintues here or there, when I had like 10 minutes to kill and nothing else to do. But this game is just intriguing enough I kept coming back at it.

The purple polka-dotted elephant twirled effortlessly through the shimmering marshmallow clouds, serenading a chorus of neon-colored unicorns with a symphony of rubber duck quacks, while a troupe of tap-dancing penguins performed a synchronized ballet on the surface of a glistening rainbow puddle, accompanied by a cacophony of kazoo-playing squirrels wearing top hats and monocles, all under the watchful gaze of a bespectacled giraffe conducting an invisible orchestra with a magic wand made of cotton candy, as a fleet of flying bicycles pedaled furiously to keep up with the rhythm of a celestial banjo played by a giggling starfish wearing a bow tie made of seaweed, while a flock of winged watermelons soared overhead singing sea shanties in perfect harmony with a choir of intergalactic jellyfish, and in the midst of this whimsical spectacle, a curious cloud shaped like a giant marshmallow bunny floated by, trailing a stream of rainbow-colored bubbles that popped into showers of glittering confetti, causing a herd of giggling elephants to break into a spontaneous conga line around a towering ice cream sundae adorned with a crown made of twinkling fireflies, while a mischievous troupe of misfit robots tap-danced on stilts made of spaghetti, juggling rubber chickens and rubber duckies with an impressive display of dexterity, as a parade of synchronized swimming narwhals somersaulted through the air in perfect formation, leaving trails of sparkles in their wake, and suddenly, without warning, the entire scene dissolved into a swirl of cotton candy clouds and pixie dust, leaving behind nothing but a sense of wonder and whimsy lingering in the air.
The universe does persistently demand paperclips.
Maybe the bridges are the friends we make along the way.

This is one of my favorite games! Glad to see it on RCE!!!
What a great idea for a maze/ puzzle type of game
My childhood!!! 😭🔥
Nice. I also started a video series on my channel on this game when I saw it in the epic store.
love how this guy was like "free game on epic?nah,ill just pay for it on steam"
i feel like the point of naming it the bridge is to say a metaphorical bridge into some other dimension or "the Other Side" so not a Physical bridge. can we do a metaphorical bridge review next time
Omg I have this on Switch. It was super fun until I got stuck on a hard level 😂
@5:26 Getting a "Majora's Mask vibe here.
You would like my background since then, there have need to give it a bridge review since it’s on on the side of a bridge and you can see all the support it at the review. All of the support is a good day off
This funky game kind of reminds me of the Black Ops 2 map Die Rise. xD I think I'll go and play that now!
So, after watching this video, I was hyped. I found out it was available on the Nintendo Switch for only 1 euro and 33 cents. That's insanely cheap, so needless to say, I bought it and I really love it. These puzzle games are my most favourite. Just laid back on the couch, gaming and solving puzzles. Thanks dude!
The game reminds me of 'And Yet It Moves', which uses the same principles :)
The strange floating architecture reminds me of the submachine games.
This is amazing; please do more!
I used to play this game on PlayStation VITA and easily spent hours on it. It was quite a time-killer! 😂
1:07 Missed lord of the rings reference.
For the Bridge Review, you just needed to score the game.
funfact this game is 11 years old
Day 11 of asking Matt to play voices of the void
12:22 interesting indeed real civil engineer 👷
if you like this game you might like monument valley, it has a similar concept of moving the world around to move the character
Wouldn't the round room with three different spans across count and three separate bridges?
I bought this game on a whim on a switch sale. It's a nice surprise
Day 53 of notifying people that the Discord server's Suggestions forum is a better place to suggest new games to Matt. (Just don't ping him!)
didn't even remember i got that game, at the time i was like "cool, let's play all of deus ex!" and i forgot i got another game that day
when you literally go against gravity itself in order to avoid touching balls
1:05 1 does not simple walk into more doors
I really like the artstyle on this one.
Nice art work!
Yo maat played an architect game, there were architecture involved in the levels! Instead of actual civil engg..😂
Would love to see more!!
matt remember what they say "It's easier to cross when every thing is a bridge"
The bridge was a metaphorical name
So it's a little bit of Braid in terms of graphics, with And Yet It Moves gimmick, but puzzle instead of platform.
The ball looks just like Ballos from _Cave Story._
Matt should play Monument Valley!! It’s a cool perception game similar to this. So cool and very beautiful.
1:07 One does not simply walk into More-Doors
More games like this please.
Matt: Is free on epic games store Epic game store: Till March 21st Matt: Uploads April 6th Me: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This game blew my mind 🤯
So, it's a little more than inspired by M.C. Escher. Pretty sure that your character IS M.C. Escher; looks a lot like him.
Rce please make a video when you play pacific drive It really is a amazing game to play And i think you can make a great video about it There even are a few godd bridges in the game wich are designed by engineer and those filthy architects
Isaac Newton actually was never HIT by the apple on the head. He just saw them falling, and then got curious.
There is a bridge after chapter 4 (yes I bought the game)
This game is a surrealist gemstone
1:38, I have the better version of that (Relativity by M.C. Escher) on the wall outside my bedroom, it's been there my entire life
Just watching this did my head in.
I'm pretty sure when you "buy" a free game on the Epic store the developers still get paid, perhaps less than usual, but I reckon Epic covers the bill.
Maybe the real bridge was the friends we made along the way?
