The devs should get memos saying "no one will finish you work" and "if you leave a note it wont be read" also "if you don't know what it is, leave it alone" Still they made something interesting out of all that chaos.

[@user-ym3cw3dx6k]

The only one I liked was the guy who made a playlist of all the problems.

[@christianboi7690]

I mean, plenty of things got finished. If you leave cool assets or unfinished/partially implemented levels/mechanics that’ll be something obvious for others to work on. It’s just that if you don’t implement it at all so that they have to scour through the code to even know it exists than it’ll probably get overlooked. Still the hand boss and the witch got implemented despite being hidden in the code. The type of communication matters, I guess.

[@CommentPositionInformer]

@@christianboi7690 There is also the problem of overloading. If you come across a game with a bunch of incomplete features, and you add more incomplete features for the next person to finish, what is going to happen is that none of the features are going to be finished. A round of playtesting. If you come across unfinished features, then finishing them should be a priority before adding new things (unless you straight up don't have the skillset to finish certain things). At least, that way the game goes forward.

[@Giraff3.]

Honestly, if you just brought back a couple of the best devs (Wishbone, Dualwielded) to refine the game WITH communication, this would be VERY good. Shockingly great end product.

[@Selrisitai]

No one's mentioning Kyle Banks, but I think his removing and refining of some of the mechanics was as good as any of the other devs' work. That parry looked terrible to me (even though parrying is my favorite mechanic in video games as an art-form) and giving the character a left and right hand, one for throwing and one for spellcasting, was an excellent move.

[@MiamiConfusion]

I think these videos are a really great showcase of how most people focus on making themselves look good and fail as a result, while some people look out for others and it makes them stand out.

[@Jamerific]

Think this is a perfect example on why both a Game and Art director are needed on a game project. For all those that said "I didn't know what to contribute" the answer was simple. You are on polish duty.

xDDD true

[@rompeaire]

And tech/engineering director

[@ItzUnstoppablez]

so many devs put 0 effort on this, one of them just added a bear trap that nobody will like and call it a day. No hate intention, but if you sign to a project with other 99 people, the least you can do is respect their effort and do your job. otherwise, i would suggest to let the most experienced devs to last, so they can fix the game

[@MrXwatcher]

I’d say this entire project was made by 20 devs adding features, 20 devs bug-fixing/polishing, and 60 “devs” actively making it worse

ngl the bear trap is kinda smart to some extent, something like: ye jump on mushrooms but watch out where you land

[@Pixie1001.]

@@ITRYeah, I suspect some devs are just better at working with adhoc 'organised chaos' code bases than others. If you only have 5 hours free, there's a good chance you could spent almost the entirety of that time just reading through script files trying to figure out how the game runs. Those people probably shouldn't have been put at the backend, but also I imagine they had to work around scheduling issues, and a lot of the devs might've had other commitments sneak up on them in the 12 months between agreeing to join the project and actually getting there hands on the game... Not to mention the novelty of this idea. Nobody could have predicted just how much of a shit show the code base actually was by day 75 xD

I think you could even do 100 devs again with no communication and have it where this group works on sound, this one on program and this on design etc. So when someone comes in they are set to do their thing and leave the rest alone. Specifically I think the other rule should be if you don't have time to add or implement something, you can't add it, because putting it in there and having someone else try and figure out your mess or even know its there with everything else is insane. I mean it made for an interesting experiment but its sad to see some of these games not get what they deserve when there's really fun and interesting things they have in it.

You should do a follow up where you actually communicate to create a polished completed version of this

[@greenberrygk]

“Hopefully the next developer can fix that” -Everybody

[@GamesBySaul]

This was a huge project glad I could partake with even a small contribution! Good job to everyone who took part!

[@Houshalter]

Most of the devs complained about lack of time. If this is ever done again, maybe give the devs a two or three times longer time limit? Not everyone has that much free time, but you can offer it to the ones that want it.

[@TriXJester]

If I didnt know 100 people worked on this without communicating I would think the entire dev team was on LSD making this game

[@nathanielatkinson9270]

I absolutely love this and would love to be apart of something like this in the future. I love doing game jams and have been professional game dev for the past three years but I've always wanted to be apart of community project like this or something similar. Indie stuff has always been where I feel most at home but I don't really get many opportunities to do stuff like this but I hope that changes soon in the future, atleast I'll be doing my best to hopefully make that change. Anyways this project just looked absolutely amazing as a concept, terrific work to all those that worked on it! P.S Rye, I totally understand how you feel, it can feel pretty bad when you spend hours on an issue that you just really want to solve and it turns out to be a really simple problem. I've gone through it a few times (and I'm sure more times in the future) and it hurts everytime, what matters is that you succeded and achieved something that improved the project. Great work! never give up on hunting those issues, expecially thought it was cool that you didn't give up on it and solved it in the end.

[@MatPlayingVidyaRPP]

"I don't want to be the guy to redo everything for the 50th time." How does he know that? Sounds like he communicated.

[@lordhuebi]

Seeks like the later devs got to see the earlier devlog vids and read the comments.

[@GoodmansGhost]

That's the problem with releasing the project as 4 videos I guess.

[@b3agz]

The videos came out as the series was still being made. I'd already watched videos 1-3 before I was invited to be part of 4.

[@8site]

why are you guys so critical oh ym god bro you guys complain when they actually participate in the challenge and then complain when they focus on making a good game instead

[@rarewubbox6413]

Bro when he finds out that devs can watch youtube too:

[@e_wok1487]

The best part of these videos is all these amazing devs being able to showcase their games on larger platform. This is super cool, can't wait to try out some of the games by these guys.

[@pase4nik340]

I hope that Blackthornprod will make a new series where they will finish this game or the previous ones. Because it's a shame that interesting ideas like this one don't develop outside the videos and remain pretty raw

[@augrao]

big rip to the guy who made the whole play testing spreadsheet with all the bugs that literally no one read... but also shoutout to the guy who made the lighting nice! and everyone who actually fixed bugs

[@bananabanyt7158]

Wishbone lowkey carried

[@jonincannon]

The parry survived the entire time just to be cut at the very end- that’s a crime, a criminal act actually

[@greenberrygk]

The guy who did extensive playtesting is so based

[@ShorteDev]

It's crazy to see that this took a whole year to finish. But hey, at least we made something that's actually playable! haha It was really cool taking part in this project :D

[@Person_that_beatboxes]

it wasn't playable at all. People made a fart button, pee button, communicated loads, and made a fart button.

[@chriswil8252]

Wishbone deserves massive props for deciphering every mechanic of the game.

[@aureliusog]

Respect to the dev who changed the pope to a mage.

[@phasein5413]

For real

[@Zilptuber]

2:40 Wishbone Games CAN YOU PLEASE MAKE A UPDATE DEVLOG IN VERMIN PLEASE!!!!!

[@Bigdaddysteppa]

Seriously dude holy crap

[@annihilator3470]

Wishbone throughout all these pass the game challenges has been consistently good. Good work.

[@Alastor255]

you can clearly see which devs are good and which ones are..... wtf are they doing

[@zerotwo6814]

This game REALLY shows what it was: Made by 100 developers without communication. That being said, it still ended up being amazing in its own way. This has been an incredibly fascinating experiment to witness, flaws and all! I look forward to what this upcoming year has in store for this channel.

[@themaster2764]

Kyle banks removing the parrying literally made me audibly scream. Count your days kyle.

[@sparklingwater925]

Best decision ngl lmao

[@themaster2764]

@sparklingwater925 nah it was an OG ability that he could've just added on if he wanted to. No need to delete it

[@proximacentauri1172]

@@themaster2764eh. The grab was also an OG mechanic that wasn’t fully fleshed out. There wasn’t space for both and Kyle chose the grab

[@TheTankyCrowbar]

Why wasn't there space for both? Have it parry if no grabbable objects in range or grab the object if there is. You can have both

[@sparklingwater925]

@@TheTankyCrowbar Probably not time to figure out how to add both given it was the last addition

[@Aspen-kusho]

this series not only shows you how important communication is in game dev but also how time consuming game dev is

[@some_random_giraffe2806]

Wishbone did a fantastic job Imphenzia did good with fixing the pixel art for the hand, but the low poly enemy was a shit idea Naked Dev did good with the FPS boost O and Co did the play testing... The results sheet is a form of communication with the other Devs in my opinion. Jonas Tryoller did a great job too Dogma did a fantastic job too, and I think its good that he changed the pope enemy sprite, because I don't think using Francis would be legal or taken well by a lot of people... 😅 Anyway that is all I have to say

[@yvancluet8146]

you see how important communication is when one dev playtests the hell out of the game and the next 10 don't see it and randomly stumble on already found and classified bugs

[@naddical]

Removing like half of the features would make this game so good not even kidding

[@s1ckboyedits]

Finished product: *first thing we see is Z-fighting* but joking aside GOOD JOB GUYS! Everyone left a mark on this amazing project! It might be silly it might have some issues but the dedication and effort that was put into the project is really heartwarming! Keep up the good job and shoutout to every single one of you! Happy new years!
