Looking for Opening with early e2 and d2 with the knights

Sort:

Hi, 

Yesterday I saw a random game clip on Instagram where some dude 1500 rated played some super exotic opening where he went super early with his knights on e2 and d2 after moving his both pawns to the center. 

Unfortunatelly I didn't save the clip and couldn't find it afterwards but I would very much like to know how this opening is called.

Many thanks!

Maybe you are referring to the hippo setup? (Ignore moves for Black)

Yes, the Hippo is good. You can also play a reverse hippo as white.
