I thought this was a book someone actually put together to make fun of bad mario maker levels, but the art seems to be original to this video??? This mans copied Dr. Seuss' art style to a tee a one-line gag XD.

You used Joel’s HELL PARK as an example of silly for-fun parks... I love it!

[@DoritoTime]

"Just delete the paths and build at the entrance" they said. The entrance, which is entirely mountains allowing no space to realistically place any flat rides:

The amount of complexity this game has compared to when it was made is still astounding and shocking to me to believe. And it all ran so smooth (for the most part) even at the time. I wish I had gotten into it as a kid but I was way too busy blowing up lemmings and burning Sims alive. Great video as usual. Love how the level really forces you to play the actual game without turning your park into a giant meme, as fun as that is. It's like the first boss in an RPG where you can't just attack it and spam your best magic or you will get punished. Neat concept!

[@Somerandomjingleberry]

Y’know why it’s so smooth? Sawyer wrote the game IN ASSEMBLY LANGUAGE. He didn’t use an engine, he didn’t even use something like Python, no, he basically did the most direct thing you can possibly do, second only to just manually inputting every single individual one and zero. RCT is one of the most optimized video games in all of existence.

[@QuintonReviews]

Hey! Good to see you guys posting!!

[@CoobyPls]

Jesus Quinton great taste did not expect to see you here.

[@Liggliluff]

My initial reaction was just to delete one square on the path. You did mention that, but it's seems obvious to prevent people to walk where you haven't expanded to yet.

[@drdewott9154]

Well said. And I mean heck even in real life some business entrepeneurs think they can just skip past the beginning phases when building their grandiose theme park. Probably the most infamous case of such in modern time is a place called Wonderland Eurasia in Ankara, Turkey. Invisioned as an idea by a former corrupt mayor of the city to attract tourism to it, this is one of the largest theme parks in the whole world covering a humongus plot of land and having 17 different roller coasters, some even duplicates of eachother, spread around it. But not only did a public funds scandal appear, the place got delayed by several years due to crime investigation and halting construction. But when it finally did open, less than half the rides, despite all being put into place years ago, were open. And the entire park shut down shortly after and is just abandoned, with 17 almost brand new for the most part roller coasters and tonnes of rides decaying in the Middle Eastern Sun. They went way too big from the beginning, They wanted to be the next Cedar Point, Magic Mountain, or Alton Towers, or Europa Park. But of course Rome wasn't built in a day. All of those places started out small and slowly grew from there.

[@alaeriia01]

The funny part is that Energylandia in Poland pulled roughly the same stunt but spread it out a bit and now they're an absolute powerhouse, with 17 coasters of their own (and another on the way). Not bad for a park that opened in 2014!

[@drdewott9154]

@@alaeriia01 Yeah but there's something a bit under the rug there and that is external funding. This entire park is funded to the brim by the EU to encourage tourism in eastern europe. That's how theyve been able to afford expanding at all. As it is now the park is way too big and with too little attendance to sustainability keep itself running without EU funding.

You did a fantastic job on this video, as per usual! (Fun fact, I actually provided some of the gameplay footage used in this video!)

[@OldManHan]

Doom 2016 has an underrated as hell map maker, imo.

Someone actually made Tetris in it

[@OldManHan]

@@a1goldenrunner It just has an impossible amount of freedom, it's great. I'm working on recreating Metroid Fusion in it.

[@CoralCopperHead]

@@OldManHan It makes me wish the PC version had full user-generated support instead of being restricted to the exact same toolkit console users have.

@@junojun722 ... It isn't going unfortunately, I should really work more on it.

[@msipp3790]

Transport rides don't get used by guests for transport in RCT and RCT2, they're basically just sh!tty coasters, i don't know about RCT3, but i have a feeling it's the same. Not that a player would know this, but still.

[@BabusGameRoom]

But you can use them for crowd management, getting people towards different parts of your park so they aren't all clustered at the entrance where your cheaper and older rides are. So they aren't completely useless!
