@@Voltraxfr is that the same guy who added a completely random mini-game into the spaceship game? The other devs did an awesome job of incorporating it into the larger game, but he clearly had no plan and just tried to throw a wrench into the cog of the project. Haven't watched it yet, but I hope he doesn't just try to ruin it again.

[@robotmaster4515]

I'm like 100 percent sure that he wanted to add a parry mechanic but then realized he couldn't replicate that pixel art style for a parry so he just made a new hand altogether. Should've either abandoned the parry or just made it an obvious placeholder and left it to a future dev to make the art. Real shame that the unique arm got replaced by yet another generic "low poly" arm. Same with the map, I think he's a cool dude and I don't wanna hate him cause I feel like a dev always gets dogpiled in these videos and I don't want that cycle to continue but alot of what he did stylistically really changed the style of the game. Sure the ice map wasn't the best but it had a clear aesthetic same with the hand. And he changed them to a more conventional style that might "look better" but it made the game lose a lot of its charm and look generic which is in my opinion is worse than looking "bad" while having clear stylistic intent. Hope he learns from this and does better next time cause he didn't seem like a bad dude. Just made a foolish mistake

[@XxXMrSisterFisterXxX]

I feel like in these challenges they should save previously used assets in a folder. A later dev even tried to copy the style of the heart for a hand and didn't like his result.

One of the most frustrating things is when devs don't try to "build on" to what was already started and instead just do a massive rip/replace - like the original hand. Like its fine if something is obviously a placeholder (and maybe future videos there can be some way to indicate what is intentional vs place holder) but its unfortunate this happens in every one of these.

[@jonthenamelessproject99]

As someone who does a lot of theatre. There is a rule in most improv (Improvised) games or warmups we do called "Yes, And" which basically if the person you're with says something like "You burnt the pie" you don't go "No I didn't. It's completely fine" because you're doing what's called Blocking which is where you disregard or don't allow someone's idea to progress, Instead you would go "Yes I did.... And I also heard some meowing near the oven earlier as well" which contributes to the joke. This is something that I see happening quite a lot in these X amount of Devs make a game challenge but there's always someone that sort of just steps all over other peoples work to do their own thing as opposed to contributing it. Whether they realise it or not is irrelevant but it happens often on these videos and it really gets in the way of both an enjoyable video and most importantly the collaboration of these developers who took time out of their day to participate in this challenge. It's a hard thing to regulate as sometimes changes are needed, sometimes cuts are necessary or sometimes redesigns are needed but there needs to be some guideline of sorts that prevents Devs from removing things. Especially the Ice Level which didn't need to go. There's 75 more Devs on the way who could've made use of that and might make use of it if the files are still there. It's a shame because I really enjoy this concept of video but it's just getting so hard to enjoy them when stuff like this happens and having seen the comments from previous videos I know I'm not the only one.

They should have learnt at this point that its a collaboration to make a game not their own personal project. Either ways they should make the boss a centipede to complete the trilogy.

[@elissaforte]

But they didn't remove anything. The hand is still there, it was "improved" (In my opinion, both look terrible but that's subjective)

[@shinami3758]

Wishbone: So, I threw out the entire aesthetic of the project and made terrible replacements because the originals looked like shit. Oh, yea. The throwable feature in the ice map was a casualty of my changes. So, we have unprofessional behavior and unnecessarily removing assets. Yea, I think "innovate, not remove" really needs to become a rule for these projects. The only reason I kept going through the video was to see if anyone threw out Wishbone's work in turn. Sadly, they did not. Here's to hoping someone adds a hub world like the tower in Gauntlet Legends and brings back the ice world.

[@linkpuppyandzeldakitty]

Love how he said each dev gets an hour yet they drop the facade entirely bit by bit and just start telling us they really get 3 hours XD

Honestly, would be more interesting to see a project by 100 devs that each get a day's worth of time (that is to say a working day so 8-12 hours).

[@linkpuppyandzeldakitty]

@ShiningDarknes it would but I was looking forward to a chaotic mess of a game from only an hour at a time

[@ShiningDarknes]

eh, 100 hours is basically nothing in dev time. I think allowing devs one working day each would lead to far more chaos.

I don't think it's fair to hate on wishbone either, but his decision to change some of what the previous game devs had done as opposed to adding onto it (not to say he didn't add onto it) just felt like a non collaborative decision to me.

[@Sitskier123]

Yep I think we’re all in agreement…Wishbone completely ruined the unique art style that was going by adding something completely out of place for no reason. Basically moral of what he said was “I didn’t like the other art that was done so I did it myself” when he had never done a day of art in his life. Hopefully he didn’t fully delete the old hand art in the project file and it can come back at some point but it seems like with the ice arena he made his over the other and deleted the old one, so I’m assuming he just deleted the old hand design completely for his ego.

[@macun8424]

deadass all he did was waste his time chancing assets that needed no chance when other devs were adding and moving the project forwards or fixing bugs

[@bonniechannel]

@@macun8424 He made a placeholder for 3d hands to move the project forward

[@harrasika]

​@@bonniechannel but he didn't need to add it. The 2D hand already worked well and looked good

[@bonniechannel]

@@harrasika Really? So what should devs do? Add nothing? You can't just stand in place and hope it works, you have to try what you fell better to make progression, that's what making stuff is all about, any dev can be criticized this way, for example I hated this cringe sprite pretending to be the "mouse" Game from the very beginning

[@harrasika]

@@bonniechannel Devs should implement actual useful features, not replace things with objectively worse alternatives. You are one of the very few people here who actually think that the 3D hand fits the game more than the 2D hand, thus you're objectively wrong. It's okay for devs to try new things, it's not as okay to remove other people's work and replace it with worse things.

[@Pirouyy]

Not a fan of that one dev that spat on the ice map design and replaced it with a generic ugly green hill map even though he didn't even see that it WAS an ice map, and proceeded to delete the cool 2D hand to add an ugly low quality 3D model, other than that big up to all the devs, that was impressive work !

[@bujold6921]

bro this is actually insane how it all comes together from others ideas.

[@Mr_Katman]

I liked the old hand more then the low poly one it fit the aesthetic way more and the ice level looked amazing meanwhile the grass one that replaced it was also pretty good wish both got to exist tho

[@greghenderson460]

Whenever something cool is replaced with something else it hurts my heart. Also the mixture of 3D and 2D is jarring, 3D boss, 2D enemies, 3D landscapes instead of 2.5D, 3D hand replacing 2D hand... aghhh!

@3:45 "a game that is battle royale, but magic" Yeah that game was called Spellbreak and it flopped super hard they had to shut down the servers. I thought it was really fun and had lots of potential, but they flooded their servers with bots to try to make up for the lack of players, but this made the remaining players not want to play anymore because 9/10 players in a match were actually bots that had the AI pathing of toddlers

[@emmecalvert6691]

​@@V14.official That doesnt excuse the fact that he removed and replaced a couple people's work that when he finished was mediocre in comparison. He didn't even try to imitate the artstyle. He also called the map sh*t when it didn't look bad, it once again was an art style choice that he chose to think was inferior. He has a huge ego. Its considered very rude to remove someones work. They should definitely ban the guy or have a talk with him about respecting another person's work.

Also Wishbone is the sorta guy that kinda ruins these otherwise stellar videos for me. He added one thing, while destroying the aesthetic and shitting on the previous guys. As a point of contrast Dual Wielded does this much better. Instead of removing or replacing he just adds his own ideas and lets other people work on ideas he "ignored"/just didn't touch. His criticism at 13:16 perfectly matches my thoughts

I'm also not a fan of the 2D hand turning 3D, but I am a huge fan of the namecard animations changing from a 2D hand to a 3D hand to keep with the hand's style in game. Probs to the editor (I can tell it's you, DualWielded x)
