[@surtu9221]

The problem wasn't the centipede, the problem was coming in as the 6th developer and not bothering to take the time to understand the work done before you. Like if you're the 2nd developer, go on, go ahead, add in a dancing penguin, its still the brainstorming phase and there are no wrong answers; but you're the 6th, you are supposed to complete the work, not toss it out.

[@ChristianHigh-bj7ds]

I remember that video lol

[@captaincomic8678]

I feel like this could be mitigated by doing this in pairs; like, instead of going Dev 1, then Dev 2, then Dev 3, you have Dev 1 and Dev 2 working together, then move on to Dev 2 and Dev 3 working together, then Dev 3 and Dev 4, et cetera... that way there's always someone from the previous version to keep things on track.

[@rency1803]

​@@captaincomic8678 I think that would ruin the whole 'not communicating' theme since figuring out what the previous devs are thinking and add your own twist is part of the charm too. I think they should just enforce a rule that if something is in the game, the dev can not outright scrap it. They can try to alter it to some extend but not outright removing or changing it completely.

[@christophergrillo463]

I like how a Dev who thinks they have a better idea has the freedom to follow through with it. As a Dev, you should not be pigeon holed into just working on what is already there, but doing what you believe the game needs. When the last dev got rid of all the enemies for one, it made it scarier.

[@ShiraCheshire]

His tone really comes off as "and now for the moment youve all really come here for, for the thing that really elevates this into something more". Meanwhile, literally nobody likes the generic garbage hes clearly so in love with. Ruined what was shaping up to be something genuinely cool. Not only that, but gave himself a very self masturbatory long ass time to waffle on at us about his artistic process and how horrified we should all be at his "genius" centipede creation, lmao.

[@PolishGigaChad180]

yep

[@Nicolas-fm8dz]

Funny how kyle removed the sanity pack and codeer added it back

[@mjm3091]

I think it actually went downhill with Codeer, because instead of focusing on what was given he just plastered extra resources. Mixing that with the idea that, if Noa didn't add shooting mechanics - this could have been a nice escape centipede game, when running through maze type of game. Especially imagine if that original light mechanic was present - having a Game Over where you look everywhere and Centipede is circling you down, would be an actually fresh horror game experience. More like Little Nightmares instead of Monster Hunter.

[@jerry_mandarin]

lmao notice how he also added the centipede to the early version of the game in the thumbnail

[@mocothegamer243]

@@mjm3091 bro this video was too make a horror game with 6 devs, all of them having to share the glory of making the game in a few short hours, they could add whatever they wanted, but what Noa did was not sharing the credit, he basically changed the whole game, adding of what seems to be a boss, changing the art style, and changing the story of the game. And there’s a lot of games already with a boss like that, for example Choo Choo Charles, he may not be everywhere but he’s a big factor in the game. So Noa made the game into an generic horror game, not being fresh. Also Little Nightmares is nothing like this game. Oh dear I turned this into a paragraph-

[@GamerzFreak101]

I genuinely felt a pit form in my stomach when I saw that Noa scrapped so much content from the previous devs and took the game in a completely different direction. Even the thumbnail is misleading to fit Noa's vision of the game. I was having a lot of fun binging this series up until this point. This went a step beyond the misunderstandings that the devs had in the previous videos. This was a video of one of your guys completely discounting the work of every single one of your guest developers and turning what they had pieced together into a completely different, utterly unrelated experience, and quite frankly much poorer experience. I am highly disappointed with how Noa handled this project, and I am glad to see most of the comments calling him out as well. Take the negative reception you've received from this video and expand on and refine this series idea in the future. Every guest developer you invite to work on these projects in the future deserves more respect and appreciation than what you have shown them here.

Seriously it wasn't even a misunderstanding or anything it was just selfish and frankly mean.

That really is the worst part, because he seems genuinely convinced that his vision is what ultimately matters, which...sure, his vision is technically what decides the ultimate state of the game, as he's the last developer, but it's weird that he didn't seem to consider that it didn't fit *his* vision because it was made in the combined visions of *others* , and that he might have to tinker with his to slide it into place I said it in another comment response already, but he was the only developer treating this like it wasn't a multi-developer project, and yet, he was the one tasked with deciding the end result-

I totally get that there's zero communication and that the story notes were probably easy to miss, but Noa must have at least noticed the sanity and vision mechanics and the hospital theme and art style.

Liam came up with an idea for the games main gimmick. Kyle, Codeer, AIA and Phibian all looked at this idea and thought about how they could enhance this core mechanic, adding new gameplay features, sound, graphics, etc. But it feels like Noa didn't look at what he was given with the thought of how he could enhance the given formula, but rather with the thought of how he could shift this formula to fit into what he wanted the game to be. It really doesn't help that the final product feels like a very generic monster slasher. And while he is well within his rights to do all of this, I feel like knowing what you want the game to be before even looking at what the others have come up with, then scrapping a majority of what they did to get closer to your original vision kind of defeats the whole purpose of this challenge. I'm not trying to attack anyone or call their work bad here, all of these people are significantly more talented at creating games than I am, but I feel some constructive critisism is needed here to avoid repeating this in the future.

It's like saying "Wow, amnesia the dark descent sure was a scary atmospheric horror game with lore scattered around and a constantly draining sanity meter that you managed with light and tinctures and avoiding looking at monsters. For the sequel, let's give the main character a gun so they can kill the threats instead of having to carefully navigate around them." Great, now the only threat is time in the darkness since the gun can just remove the other threats. It's not like guns just remove the tension of a game though. In silent hill you get a gun quite early but the game is still amazingly tense. The big difference is the goal, In silent hill 1 your goal is to find your lost daughter and the gun is a means of limited self defense while working towards that goal. In the centipede, the goal is to kill the centipede and the crossbow is the means to that end, turning your weapon from "I need to conserve my uses of this incase I need it later" to "I have the win condition for the entire game now" you stop being the hunted and immediately become the hunter. Even worse is you start with the crossbow, you don't even have to search for the scattered lore and keys to find the room with it, you just have to find some extra ammo and pills to survive the fight, you don't even have to explore since there's a circle directly left of the starting room that summons the centipede to you and it's just far enough away from the starting room door that items will randomly spawn there for you to restock on every item before going back to the circle to keep fighting. I beat the game just by leaving the starting room, gathering the items immediately outside and making a run to the circle, using all my ammo and then going back to the spawn room door to restock. It took a little over a minute to do and completely negates the entire atmosphere, lore and strategy of the game where as the previous iteration would have made me explore the entire area looking for keys and actually engage with the lore and atmosphere of the area while avoiding the horrors. Is it a bad horror game? I'd say yes since, while the atmosphere is ok, you start the game with the tools you need to easily beat the only actual threat in the game and can immediately do so without having to engage with the atmosphere. When the player is given tools to fight the monsters then the monsters stop being scary and it's up to the atmosphere, level design and sound design to keep the player tense. The level design can be completely ignored since exploration is entirely optional with a giant "Stand on me to fight boss" circle 5 seconds from the starting room. The sound design consists of a constant low droning with squishy sounds meant to resemble the centipede rustling around you, the intention being that no matter where you go you're always in danger except you already have all the tools to defend yourself so the danger isn't actually that dangerous. Hindsight is always rough, but the concept is good. I think it could be refined to a fine polish if given time. For example you could keep the exploration from the previous iterations with periods of dead silence to help build tension in the darkness while you go room to room looking for keys and finding the lore. One thing I adored from the centipede when I did choose to explore the level is sometimes you would just see the centipedes body motionlessly blocking a hall, but since it's not an object you can just walk through it. Instead the body could be a physical thing that, because it's blocking your path, you're forced to find a way around it, the obvious fear being "Of the 2 directions I can go to get around it, which side is the head?" Forcing the player to potentially walk into the literal jaws of the beast based on an unlucky coin flip and then have to escape. All of this would eventually lead to the player unlocking the room with the crossbow and fighting the centipede. You still run into the problem of "I have a weapon now, time to win" but in this iteration the player has had to fully engage with the game to get their win condition as opposed to spawning with it.

[@yaboicheeze8818]

It really doesn't feel like a horror game any more when the goal is to kill one, identifiable monster. This concept, for the most part, only works when there are many, nearly undefinable threats that, rather than fight, you must escape and out-maneuver.

[@smiley2924]

Yes! The game will feel bland and boring and the lore will also be boring. There will also be little to no story and most notes being said useless. Like the voices Phibian made. I feel like he could have changed it and kept their story while implementing some of his too. Like adding a bunker or something for the centipede. the boss. who lays the weird little creatures. but he scrapped it all and probably only played through the game once not paying attention. he scrapped the flash light (for no reason why) and gave them a crossbow for some reason. and this is all still in a hospital.

Few notes for preserving original devs additions/ideas I understand that less vision would actually be more tense, but instead of replacing it with a flashlight that stays static, it could have been cool to see the beam narrow with sanity decreasing. Could be explained as tunnel vision or some sort of fear paralysis. I think scrapping the story was really uncool, even if it was because of a mistake, probably could have been found with a little more effort. Also turning the game away from avoiding an increasing horde of enemies, turning it into a game where you hunt just 1 feels like a bit of a turn too drastic this far in development. That being said it was really impressive that this resulted in a cohesive game that actually looks pretty cool.

[@nottechytutorials]

Game looks cool. I like how that one guy added art and a story, and the next expanded on that. The idea that this took place in a hospital was very solid, reminded me of Afraid of Monsters (the precursor to Cry of Fear). But then that guy in the end scrapped everything and it just became a pitch black location with pitch black enemies and you gotta shoot em. And I agree with the other comments, its very generic, and whilst the others tried to convey the original intent and expand on it, this guy was just straight up disrespectful. He didn't even play the game and see the notes, he just made his own version straight away.

Normally i dont comment on videos but the two words that stuck with me from this entire video was "My vision" From Noa. _"My_ vision". The whole point of the project was to create something with other people, who, up to that point, did a wonderful job at creating something that i would have loved to play! But then Noa came along, took a look at everything that was made up to that point: The small details (like the character reading the notes), the story, the whole gameplay mechanic with the sanity and vision, and went "Mmmm...no." And tossed it into the bin. He took the entire game (That honestly should have stopped with Phibians development.) and scrapped it to make it into his own thing. Just because it didn't fit with what *he* wanted. From what i saw the only things he kept was a few of the game sprites (The pills and batteries) and the sanity mechanics. What bothers me the most is that he knew that he was supposed to make a game with _other_ people, he was probably informed that this was the whole point of the video and he probably even agreed to it, but in the end went "Nah, lol."

The flashlights battery mechanic seems like a miss too, as that means you can turn blind, and thus take no sanity damage from seeing no monsters (though it might be that he forgot to mention changing that mechanic to have a baseline sanity-damage even when nothing is visible, to avoid that).

kind of would have preferred if the game ended with the second to last dev. Moving the light out of the flashlight and giving him a crossbow just felt wrong and a bit lazy. Didnt feel like a horror game anymore, just kind of creepy i guess?

Loved the first 5 devs game. Noa did something I didn’t expect at all. It was truly amazing to see 5 people work on a game for hours and put in an insane amount of work then to see Noa come in and completely destroy the entire game and make a basic boring shooter. Hats off to the first 5 devs. Hats off to Noa for managing to destroy the work of every other dev to fit his narrative.
