@@XrayTheMyth23 Yeah for sure, I should have phrased it better. I was more thinking, not as a hard and fast rule, but as a sort of mindset of going into the program. If I was #4, for example, my goals should be completely different than #1. In one of the more recent episodes, a true gameplay loop was not established early, so the game kept changing.

[@greatbriton8425]

I apologise in advance for my toxicity but I'm more frustrated every time I watch. What a wonderful fuckup! Turning a creative original quirky challenging-to-learn game into a smooth easy boring rehashed 3D pacman/NFS which no one will ever actually play or learn to overcome. And you inevitably have someone in there who does nothing for the game but overturn everyone else's visuals to his own preferred style. To make this type of dev challenge make sense each dev should be able to peg 2 things that cannot change - like the first dev could have pegged the controls and the cart. Yes the cart is difficult but it adds to the creativity and challenge.

I think removing the rickshaw worked well within the scope of the development time, but if they had more time to iron out bugs I think racing through the streets with the rickshaw dragging behind you would have been much more fun

[@datablob]

Agree, the rickshaw physics are super fiddly but it was fun to drive it over little wobbles and send it :D

[@graydwarf22]

I would have tried adding an invisible marble to act as the central move agent and then had the cart jointed to that and then made the dragon jointed as well but more of a visualization (moving left and right but does nothing). The ball does all the moving and the cart just flaps around in tow. I was disappointed to see the cart go as well but I agree that it either works fast or gets cut fast.

[@gamma_centauri]

This could even extend to gameplay. There could maybe be an intentional movement that can fling passengers from the rickshaw to their destination, either netting you more points for success or taking away points for failure. High risk, high reward.

[@datablob]

@@gamma_centauri that was exactly the initial vision I had, hehe 👍

[@owemeonekenobi988]

​@datablob The rickshaw idea was inspired bro, so gutted it got cut as early, it had great much potential for chaos lol. Honestly rather play a whacky half baked jank of a game than an uninspired over-cooked and over-polished simulation

[@ethan2529]

Originally I was salty when the third developer removed the cart but then I realized that the passenger riding the dragon actually makes a lot more sense.

[@Gobbygoblin]

it ruined the entire point of the game tho and made it too easy

[@tuna5305]

​@@Gobbygoblin Exactly. It got turned into Crazy Taxi with a fantasy flavor until the last dev just made it into Pac Man with dragons. Despite struggling at first the second dev seemed to have mastered the controls after 30 min of practice so it seems the third guy just couldn't be bothered learning the how to play the game and whacked in boring standardized controls instead. On a similar note the last dev removing the unique police UI also kind of annoyed me. U guys don't have to copy "standard" elements from big games. A game's uniqueness can lend to its charm and fun

I've noticed the projects that turn out the best are the ones where Dev #1 already has a clear gameplay loop in mind. If the idea isn't well defined enough or is just basically a single mechanic or some sprites, the other devs will waste all of their time making and remaking the base game over and over again. But if the base is there and it's good, they can actually be creative and add features.

All the devs seemed to respect the idea of pushing the project they were given forward, rather than reshaping and twisting the project to fit a direction they wanted to shove it into (eg. score driven top-down vampire survivors-like), or changing the entire concept because they didn't understand it. Props to all the devs involved!

[@JD-wv1yi]

absolutely lovely, it finally feels like this challenge was meant to be. finally we can see a project start one way, and see that the final version is an improvement of what it was at the beginning with the input of each dev building upon that foundation. finally we can see that the conversation between devs at the end is not an awkward "im glad my stuff is still in at least", while other devs had their contribution completely deleted and are invited to the chat anyway for some reason. now it's a reunion to celebrate how the project ended up being like with pretty much everyone's contribution being taken into account. "I'm so happy how it turned out" is the general vibe of the last talk now, a sentiment shared by everyone for a project everyone helped build. it's really nice to see we're finally at this point again.

[@patlajanec]

- Dev 1 (DataBlob) is an absolute monster, basically created a whole game for the other devs to expand upon instead of trying to figure out what to do (before eventually turning it into a wave-based tower defense). - Dev 2 (Wishbone) added a meaningful and interesting feature while maintaining the whole concept. - I'm not a huge fan of Dev 3 (Ignas) removing the cart while I felt like Dev 4 (Vitali) was too scared to change anything so ended up barely contributing at all. - Devs 5 (Zoteling) and 6 (Imiklowski) rounded up the game nicely by adding small features and polishing up the game. Overall, one of the better pass-the-game challenges, end result was pretty good and it was all made possible by having a single dev (DataBlob) determine a game loop and basic mechanics early on instead of leaving it for the others to figure it out on their own. Good job!

[@marcosvinicius6043]

​@@GivenFailureI don't think he's talking about the cart, but the controls of the game, the third dev changed from controlling the left and right wings which made it harder, to controlling the dragon itself, making it more easy and little more generic

[@matgoodliff2086]

I feel like a lot of the uniqueness came from the cart and the awkward controls, when you remove them, it loses a lot of its potential charm. Qwop would be a boring game if you just held W to go forward

[@adam7280]

i think it was a good change! the more accessible controls allowed for more fast paced gameplay. yeah, the other devs could have made something that works well with the tank controls and it probably would have been quite cool, but they only have a day! not exactly feasible imo

[@feha92]

​@@GivenFailure This. It wasn't readily apparent in how they edited their videos, but the rickshaw - while it would have been a fun physics-based mechanic differentiating it from a childhood of crazy taxi - seemed to be very broken and the movement overall too difficult. That said, I do think this kind of challenge should have them respect the attempt to not just use a standard "WSAD" movement system, and instead tried to at least keep that odd "control wing" one, maybe fixing it if it had any issues we didn't see. ps: as for the rickshaw, I feel like it is a shame they put too much focus on trying to get a controller for it, when a more physics-based approach would have solved it easily: Connect with a spring like they did, but only have it apply forces to the rickshaw, not the player (or at least lower such 'reactionary' forces greatly, so you don't feel flung around by it unless more extreme situations happens than a slight turn or bump). Then, instead of trying to apply any forces to keep it on the ground or angle correctly behind dragon, just *_add a "drag" force to its end._* This would naturally slow it from flying around the dragon too much, and instead keep it behind the dragon unless you brake strongly. And overall make sure it faces right way. (another way to do it would be to have the rear repelled by the dragon, while the front slightly attracted (the spring likely being enough for that). Then maybe have a force discouraging it from not being right-side-up too (unless you want that to happen a lot), maybe through applying rotational forces to approach roll 0 (ie. pid controlled), or simply strong forces away from roll -180 (that quickly falls off as it is less upsidedown; this would make it able to easily wobble a lot, and even drive on a single wheel, but bounce back if it tries flipping over). There's a lot of other ways to go about things, but my point is that they shouldn't have bothered too much trying to get the rickshaw to be controlled, and instead embraced some of the chaotic nature of having it be a physics-body.

This was great! One of the best ones so far for sure, alongside the superhero city defender and the legendary Noot game. I like how everyone found a throughline while successfully maintaining the spirit of the previous devs' work. Excellent "Yes, and" energy! I also enjoy how mechanically unique this game turned out. It seems humanity's collective brain tends to gravitate towards wave-based PvE when not given guidance, so getting a Crazy Taxi/Pacman hybrid is a really cool direction that stands out from the previous projects.

6:14 how to turn original concept into generuc game tutorial

[@KewalTailor]

True, generic game dev he seems

[@asta3749]

wow. amazing job. was worried when the 3rd dev decided to remove stuff. but it turned out better. rare case of doing it correctly. sad to see the stunt job was not implemented although the hint was not that obvious. looks great, loved the video

[@JoylessBurrito]

Tbh the low poly hands get way too much hate. It didn't wreck the gameplay loop, or completely overwrite the story, unlike the centipede

[@Supergamer-ex2yr]

Mildly disappointed the bomb was never put into use, but it’s fantastic otherwise!

[@st4849]

Great video! I love the police/traffic light idea added by Wishbone.

damm did not expect high pikachu

[@finweain]

Lmao, I was confused about this comment until I got to his part

[@Theaeretical]

I died with the NPC “hiii” and “bye!!1!” Sfx 💀

[@xnatorskyy]

How crazy is that the last dev is from Poland. I even played Miniland Adventure for a while and I didn't know that

[@RichardinSA]

Great start to the new year!

[@mouseroot8053]

3rd dev notices the clipping issue, so he makes the char fly...absolute genius moment, right there.

[@samuelalves905]

I think the visuals looked great, 2nd Dev's definition of making the dragon stand out was flash banging me with contrast and brightness.

[@CT2507]

Nooo... don't remove the rikshaw! That was part of the main idea. The police dragons, trafic lights, speedbumps and so on loose their meaning without the vehicle. :( Then it becomes just a 3d packman.

[@LingsKazemiro]

the reference to the hand being changed in the intro is just genius xD

[@PyroPhysicsGames]

Thanks @Blackthornprod for hosting! I think everyone who participated did great work. I personally had a blast! Hope to work in future projects with you guys. Promise will not delete rickshaw again😅

[@OverloadedDragon]

most of the comments are saying it was an unfortunate, but necessary change

[@frazomania]

first dev is super talented, and his steam game is super cool looking

[@datablob]

thanks frazomania, glad you also like Black Dragon Mage - coming out in late March btw! Will be at NextFest Feb 5th too. Demo is out now.

[@frazomania]

@@datablob 100% playing!!

[@khaledx735]

will be buying once it drops@@datablob

[@olivender420]

I love how the last dev said the beautiful UI was unpolished and then proceeded to make it 100x worse. also he changed to unique police system to off brand GTA. and made the most shit looking minimap of all time ALSO WTF PACMAN????

[@GreenMonkeySam]

I feel like Ignas completely changed the game by removing two core concepts. Changing the control scheme and removing the cart stripped away the uniqueness of the game. Now there's not much setting it apart. I don't think he followed the "don't delete anything" rule fairly

[@Spoonenheimer]

I think once you get a red orb instead of eating the police dragons you should have a short fire breath that reaches close police dragons, they could also try to escape you.

[@badelk-nb6zr]

DualWielded is killing it with the editing!

[@blinkingeyetheatre]

This was fantastic. Always love these.

[@AB-bh6rb]

I honestly hate they removed the cart. Dragging that was the difficult thing to focus on. Not outrunning the cops

[@Doctor-Of-Doom]

DataBlob looks like he tames dragons. Vitali looks like he fights them lol.

[@ethantemple8068]

It was really good honestly the only thing I wish was maintained was the traffic lights making the cops go after you. In the case of the stars it could increase by one every time you run a red light but decrease by one every minute

[@NOxSPLOOSHxPLANE]

I like how in the intro this video he mentioned the mess up on wishbone's end 😅 that hand

[@monialali5150]

The first dev and last dev literally made huge work

[@alexgosher2702]

Incredible games being made here in these collaborations, thanks to Blackthorn prod for hosting and all they bring to this fantastic channel 👍👍👍

[@mishnugget]

props to wishbone for having a sense of humor about everything

[@ChillinWithTheCapuchins]

This was such a good one! Love to see the devs "yes and!"
