PewDiePie: Legend of the Brofist

Developed by Outerminds, this indie action platformer delivers pixel art visuals and fast paced gameplay that fans of classic side scrollers will have fun with. One of the game’s greatest strengths is its humor and attention to detail. It is filled with references to PewDiePie’s channel, memes, and iconic characters, it feels like a nod to his community and fan base. The different types of levels, boss fights, and unlockable characters (including fellow YouTubers) add layers of fun (especially to completionist out there). The controls are smooth, the soundtrack is good, and the challenge level is just right. Overall, Legend of the Brofist is an enjoyable, quirky adventure that successfully brings PewDiePie’s world to life in a way that both fans and platforming lovers can appreciate. It’s definitely worth playing!

[h2] This Is A Theory More Than A Review [/h2] First of all, let’s start by saying that I’m a scientist so everything I’m saying is a fact, at least in scientific terms. [b]Beginning[/b] I used to watch PewDiePie videos every day, so I clearly remember when this game was first announced. I really wanted to play it back then, but it wasn’t free, and eventually I forgot about it. Seven years later, I randomly found it again on Steam by accident. I bought it, and it sat in my backlog collecting dust for three years. Then, one day, I finally played it. Due to the sheer amount of dust accumulated over time, I sneezed the moment I launched it. Random fact but I remembered it while writing this review. [b]The PewDiePie Universe Theory [/b] Since the game is based on the real-life personality PewDiePie and how he sees the world, and because some elements in the game are impossible in our reality, we can theorize that there are two universes: our own, and the “PewDiePie Universe.” Most likely, PewDiePie is the only entity who can fully experience the PewDiePie Universe, but fortunately, we’re able to get a glimpse of it by playing this game. So with that explained, let’s move on. [b]Stage 11: Hidden Meanings?[/b] In the very beginning of Stage 11, "Mines Entrance," you receive a phone call from Marzia telling you she wants to see “Orange is the New Bro.” This tells us that there's a show called Orange is the New Bro in the PewDiePie Universe. The game was released in 2015. The closest equivalent in our universe is Orange Is the New Black, which was released in 2013. Considering development time, this reference lines up well. From this discovery, we can conclude that “bro” in the PewDiePie Universe is “black” in our own. This becomes more significant when thinking about the 2017 incident on the bridge (you know the one). PewDiePie used the word “bro,” a term he commonly uses to refer to his fans. [b]Theory Probability[/b] let’s break down the numbers: In 2017, PewDiePie had 54.1 million subscribers. PUBG the game that he was playing at the time had 3 million players. The global population was about 7.6 billion and Female gamers hadn't "discovered" video games yet. so that leve us, approximately 3.79 billion male. The game had a 16+ age rating, so realistically, only people aged 18–25 would be allowed to play. That group made up about 9% of the global population, or ~678 million people. Globally, around 38% of people in that age group played video games, which gives us approximately 257.6 million gamers aged 18–25. So, the chance that someone in a PUBG match (100 players) was also a PewDiePie fan during that livestream is roughly 98%. With only facts and reasoning, we’ve reached this conclusion. And as a scientist, it was my duty to make this information public. [b]Final Thoughts[/b] The game has a good soundtrack, a variety of levels, and it's a short game and very much a product of its time and YouTube culture. Thanks for reaching the end. And honestly, with the time it took me to write this review, I think I’ll retire from being a scientist.
