A Doomed Stoneage Tribe Fights Back The Apocalypse - The Tribe Must Survive

[@tjk3430]

The majority of games you cover in your YT vids leave me wanting to see longer streams! You're great at explaining the game play mechanics and keeping things interesting. I think you have a gift.

[@brianlynchehaun1963]

You should check out his Twitch stream in that case. :)

[@tjk3430]

@@brianlynchehaun1963 oh I often do and love it when the YT game is the same as the twitch stream game.

[@vforwombat9915]

splatt mentioned that KZbin was griping about his videos going over 30 minutes. whatever system KZbin has, it sorts by length, and Splatt apparently wants to remain in the 30 min rank. used to be he'd run anywhere from 25 to 55 minutes. now at about 30 min he'll shut it down no matter what's happening.

[@tjk3430]

@@vforwombat9915 I noticed Raptor still does longer 40-55 min (non-live) vids. Plus he uploads like three, 3+ hr live streams to YT like every day. Does YT demand shorter vids or is it meant as a helpful suggestion?

[@vforwombat9915]

@@tjk3430 "Does YT demand shorter vids" idk the rules. i am pretty sure but not positive that length of videos is segmented and different lengths have different rewards or rules. some folks do purely short form- under 10 minutes- and i think those get treated differently than 30 minute vids. you can do longer vids, one science content provider i watch- gutsick gibbons- does 1-4 hour vids regularly. but i THINK monetization of different lengths is different. as for Splatt, all i have to go on is one offhand comment he made once about youtube giving him lip over his video lengths. i do know after he made that comment, his video lengths settled on 20-30 minutes, where before they'd often gone longer.

omg i remember doing artworks for this in my internship like 2 years ago, so happy to see they re still around

Eaten by the grue. Took me back. I 90% watch these videos just to listen to your commentary. The games are usually not my speed but you good sir are entertaining. Thank you for what you do/

Oh man, it really puts on age on anyone who knows about the grue lmao, it really does bring back memories.

[@Veritas.0]

The lineage is true. The patriarch is Zork, but the most recent _pater familias,_ was Don't Starve, and these are the only difficulties I like for survival games.

[@ianallen738]

So much this. Splattercat cracks me up nofail every time.

[@CWunderA]

I was going to say I could listen to Splatt talk for hours, and then I realized I actually do listen to him for hours many days.

[@smokedbeefandcheese4144]

So true I don’t like every game he shows. But I definitely like his opinion and respect it. Every time he’s recommended a game or it has been something he looks like he really enjoys I generally enjoy it.

[@chaosmorris5865]

Stone Age people weren't stupid, in fact if we consider nutritional data from fossil humans in stone age such as the fact they were as tall as post industrialized food supply humans with large complex brains its more likely than not your average "caveman" was more intelligent than your average Bronze age to Renaissance peasant. Coming up with drastic new ideas and ways of life like agriculture isn't as easy as sitting at a desk like in Rimworld, especially when everyone has to be more concerned about food than anything else.

[@ezequielblanco8659]

I remember this. You played this years ago, right? I like it, so I'm glad that development is still progressing.

[@Gigusx]

"This is a game about a bunch of cavemen" finally something I can relate to.

[@misteryman526]

"if you don't know anything about natural phenomena" THERE IS NOTHING 'NATURAL' ABOUT ECLIPSES THAT LAST 5 DAYS!! I think that panicking is a perfectly valid response to this no matter how enlightened you are.

[@sonofkabisch]

7:50 Surprising that so many people are not fans of musk...rat

[@had_fun_once]

I played the demo for this. I recall my complaint with the game being that there is practically zero grace period to having villagers getting swiped in the darkness. They could stick a pinky toe out into the dark and get grabbed immediately. Hopefully they fixed that.

[@zombieranger3410]

Very much like Frostpunk, I would almost say to a detriment, it doesn’t differentiate itself enough to really pull me in. Hope as it develops it branches out more.

[@zombieranger3410]

@@Dyanosis no grid system yet there is a hex system, the resource management and collection is mirrored over, you pointed out the fire management is similar, its exactly the same. The research tree is the exact same 4-tier research system, and the social tech splits into ideologies. Even discontent. Its more than inspired by Frostpunk, its taking its homework right now. There ARE differences, but cmon, you have to admit almost every feature of the game is ripped from Frostpunk. Thats not to say that it cannot change, but I stand by what I said, that its copying too much.

[@Reoh0z]

> "...gotta wait for some wood to come in before we slap down on that thing." I hear there's a pill for that.

[@DiocletianLarius]

I really liked Frostpunk so having similar games is awesome, and the premise of this game is really original (tribal ppl surviving SK's The Mist :0). Fantasy and lovecraftian horrors aside, the idea of associating fire with safety and the fear of darkness/unknown horrors is really rooted on the history of our species, fire specifically was used to give us shelter from the environment, to give us warmth, to scare predators, to cook and secure food, etc. That's why the fire was sacred and worshipped by many ancient cultures, we see it represented in, for example, Zoroastrianism's Atash Behram or the Sacred Fire of Vesta from Rome. It's such an important element to humanity even today.

[@Actidle]

wow this game make me remember about game called PREHISTORIC TRIBES from java

Gettin heavy Frostpunk vibes. Which isn't a bad thing that game was great.

The brief beat boxing took me out. xD🤣

[@DannyBoyZero]

That man said he really likes to be on top of a lot of wood and thought we wouldn't say anything....

[@fredmercury1314]

This sounds like the exact premise of a different game, but with cavemen.

[@CanOpener-bl9dw]

Interesting cover of upcoming indie game. I played the demo as well, and indeed feedbacks you suggest shall really help the dev team making this game better forward.

[@colborn1849]

you can turn off the shaman from collecting medicine in the spiritual lodge it is a option in the gear thingy there you just ignored it xD

ThankYou SirSplatt

[@PreacherwithoutaPulpit]

Seems like a version of "Against the Storm" not a carbon copy of course but I can see where it inspired these developers. Don't get me wrong I think that is a good thing as that one is a really good game. Take care and God Bless.

[@Medytacjusz]

a lot of Frostpunk in it as well (then again, Against the Storm was inspired by Frostpunk). Like for example how the research works + a social levelling tree.

[@alexanderrahl7034]

Cave men that worship a beast God? Yessss The picts of Jhebbal Sag shall rise again! Lol

[@Somewhat-Evil]

I wish the game was based on playing out surviving the Younger Dryas event would have been great, but this still looks like a great buy.

[@GameTimeWhy]

That would actually be so cool. Base it off of real world stuff. We have lots of data on certain time periods so it would be cool to see it used in a game setting

[@666FallenShadow]

i was eating while watching this and when you said the beat boxing thing i nearly chocked on my food 🤣🤣😆😆

[@davidfletcher6703]

I don't think eating muskrat would be any different than eating groundhog, I love groundhog, when I lived with my grandmother way out in the country I'd go out and shot a groundhog and work it up like you would a rabbit or deer, it tasted a lot like beef but it's a little more greasy so you gotta soak it overnight in saltwater

[@alexanderrahl7034]

I now know how to eat groundhog. Sweet. 9am and I already learned something lol

Disable shamen to stock up 10. I ran into the same issue too. Worker for gathering is not same as the shamen worker.

I notice you are playing a lot of the same genre recently. Just for something totally out of your wheelhouse you should try Nour: Play with Your Food. I would love to hear your commentary on it. It would be hysterical.

Do you understand how many great games i have in my possession, which i would not have, if it wasnt for this channel? What the fuck else could he possibly do? The fact that he has "tunnel vision" to me, means he is "focused" and keeping his "eye on the ball" .. So you dont speak for me.

Thanks for the video splat, but for me, I just don't see this selling that well. The caveman concept is okay but what's going to keep the player engaged? Hardly anything was going on other than gathering and impending gloom. Just didn't seem to hold my interest at all.
