Hey Destin. I really hope you see this. I'm an aspiring game developer and I named something in my games after you. It's related to faster than light travel.

I wanted to try out your game, but I'm hesitant to do so. Firstly, it seems like your developers aggressively respond to negative reviews and disable comments, which I find distasteful. Even on positive reviews, they seem to attack any criticism about the game. Additionally, I feel that $25 is too much to pay for a game that is still in Early Beta with limited content and options. I want to support your channel, but I felt the need to highlight these issues with the people you are working with. With that said, I do appreciate this video and an awesome look into the PAX environment for those of us who can't attend.

Man, he should check out the RO/RP1 mod. And if by chance he were to see this, make sure you check out the original kerbal space program and not KSP 2, because the second game's developer team was laid off which has left the game abandoned with empty promises. The first game has more to it, except for the graphics.

I'm a game developer. It's so cool to see people that aren't game developers trying to learn about game development. It reminds me of my early days getting into it, everything feels so magical. I imagine this is the same with any job you do out of passion, even though you love it, you lose a bit of that magic over time, so its nice to see others get excited about it to remind you, that magic still exists in the people that use what you make.

lol, referring to Gabe and Tycho as "popular dudes". I love it. Penny Arcade started life as a web comic in 1998. In the almost 26 years since they have grown a web comic about a couple of dudes who like video games and make crude jokes into a gaming media empire. PAX was originally a tiny get together of fans, and turned into essentially one of the primary gaming conventions in the world. Also, they are huge nerds. The "Tycho" character is directly named after Tycho Brahe, the Danish astronomer. They have also helped raise tens of millions of dollars for children's hospitals through their charitable foundation, Child's Play.

I love this video, and I love the sensitive way you questioned these people, who, like you said to the Inpulse guy, were way further down the rabbithole than you or I, and got answers that more than filled in the gaps in your knowledge. Mine too, thanks man.

After listening to everyone it’s clear people want out of video games the same things they want out of life. The common threads I heard were: 1) Growth. Either as a person or in the game. Done through challenges giving you a sense of accomplishment. 2) To feel something. And not necessarily always needing to be positive emotions. Just make me feel something. I always cringe when I hear people talk about games being a “waste of time”. It’s often from people that view video games as a toy and not an art form. Certainly not ALL video games are of equal caliber, but you can say the same for music, books, movies, photos, paintings, etc. Yet somehow there are people that throw all video games into the same boat. It would be silly to say “music is a waste of time” just because one song is terrible and lacks artistry. Some of the best stories and art are now in video games as opposed to books and movies. I wish they got the credit they deserve, but unfortunately there are predatory purposefully addictive games that prey on the dopamine rush in a bad way impacting lives in negative ways and that’s what many people will focus on. But man, there are AMAZING games that can impact and enrich your life just as much as a good book, movie, song, or other work of art.

I've got to admit that going into this video it was a little touch and go. I thought here we have a none gamer who doesn't get it. He won't be able to cover this in a way that will either satisfy gamers or outsiders looking in at what all the fuss is about. BUT of course we have a very clever guy here who understands exactly what he's doing. Not only did he come to understand gaming at a very deep level that some people I feel may never actually grasp. Game = good or bad is as far as it goes for some. But also we started to get a real sense of what the mechanics in games are actually for. What are they achieving. What itch at they scratching. And it was actually quite amazing. I have never seen a video about gaming covered like this. It reminds me a little bit of that talk he gave about going back to the Moon. That started out a little touch and go too. You weren't exactly sure where it was going and whether anyone wanted him to go there haha. But of course it also turned out to be one of the best videos I've ever seen about space, period. I'm sorry I doubted you, I should have known to just hang in there and go with it.

This was a video that scratched an itch, I love the approach you took in advocating for both positivity and negativity with views from each Dev's perspective. Inpulse's dev made me more passionate about just how/why I've played and grown up with wild and creative new explorations of what games share. Thanks, Destin! I know you're a big noob but you did justice for exploring the passions of others.

I’ve watched tons of game expo videos from gaming creators and this is one of the very best that I’ve seen. Part of that is the baseline of knowledge that Destin brings to something new, but the other part is just the patient interest that he brings to each interview, really pulling out the core of what people believe and value in their games. There’s also a really earnest permission that Destin offers to each pitch to advocate for each game while talking and sharing what the devs love about their games. I’m deeply familiar with this “field” and the way he advocates for understanding here ads value to everything else he’s put out looking at other fields.

Another very cool thing that comes to mind when talking about Universe Sandbox is Space Engine, Universe Sandbox is the one you go to when you want to mess around with things and Space Engine is the one you go to for observing things. Space engine really gave me the realization of how small we actually are and how big the universe truly is, after travelling from the Earth to the Sun at light speed knowing how fast the speed of light is and it taking around 8 minutes to get to the Sun just like in real life really put that concept into perspective for me. Especially when you consider that doing the same thing but going to Proxima Centauri instead (the nearest star to us) would take more than 4 years to do it, or the Andromeda galaxy which would take more than 2.5 million years at the speed of light. I already knew these things beforehand but when you actually get a realistic visual representation it really blows your mind.

One of my favourite places to learn things is from the presentations recorded from Game Developer Conference. What you can learn from game devs is quite a lot. They need to solve a massive problem, realtime simulation, physics, numerical stability, multithreading, tooling and much much more. They have a unique problem of needing to simplify simulations but still preserve the behavior even when they are sacrificing accuracy for speed.

1:14:00 I have a Whirlwind FX keyboard which was sold as coming with all the pro features of Signal RGB. And it is all SUPER cool. But you should know, they don't make those keyboards anymore, and if you get one, you will only have access to the free features. Fortunately, the screen mirroring they're doing is a free feature on all supported devices, and it's really good. You could do this with your 90+ RGB keyboards you have laying around, basically any brand as far as I can tell, and not have to pay for SignalRGB (unless they have a device number limit on the free tier... idk). Overall, I wouldn't pay for the monthly, but if you want something to get a few good effects, and screen mirroring across multiple devices with one UI, download it. Idk, that just seemed like something worth noting.

41:38 Reminds me of a story I read about an art teacher encouraging a student to make artistic choices the teacher, personally, hated… because art needs to be specific and personal to be effective. You have to understand why people don’t like an aspect- because it’s poorly executed? Because they don’t like that thing? Because of a secret, third reason? It’s like how you need to narrow your scope when making a game. Make it something fun for YOU. Be unique and specific! That will include some people strongly disliking your choices… but that’s art baybeeeeeee!!!!

Rogue was such a guilty pleasure of mine back in the mid 90's. I loved it, but it was so primitive, graphically, that I never told any of my friends about it. I played it for hours and hours and I never beat it. Not once. Years later when Rogue-like games started to gain popularity, I was thinking... this reminds of that old ASCII game I played back in high school... What was it called, again? Google search later, Oh lol. It was called Rogue. That's awesome.

Being a fellow mechanical engineer it's very interesting seeing this from Destin, who is NOT into video games like I am. Me being a big wow player for 10+ years

The science now around how beneficial video games are for developing a myriad of skills is undeniable now. It teaches all sorts of important skills. Many of which are critical life skills.

That was a great interview! Come to think of it, if you ever have the chance to interview John Carmack, oh boy now that would be something. Pick his brain on both programming [games] and space related stuff (Armadillo aerospace).

There are actually some people who make games that work on the older consoles. Recently there was one that raised like $50,000 on kickstarter.

This video was a great introduction into computer games. But there are truly mind blowing games and communities out there. The amount of games released every day is crazy. Market is over saturated. I need to quit my job and clone myself 3 times to play the games I liked to experience.

Fulltime Hobbyist gamedev here, and i watch a lot of devlogs and dev related videos, but this! This has been the most interestng one in years, with all the right questions coming from a truly passionate mind. And the devs answers reflecting also for me, why im so happy being a part of this global open club of tallented individuals.

Hahahaha, "Throwing food around the screen". As a kid I reckon that would be a hoot. The time that these guys have been developing those games is just mind boggling. 15 years for that astronomy simulation and 7 years for that game where you just throw food around the place. I'm laughing but I can see the level of commitment and joy that these guys experience. I'm not a game person but this video has been an eye opener into the world of how games are constructed and what the purpose is and the objective in making it immersive and challenging for the user. Thanks Destin. I keep editing this post. TJ is a laugh. "Setting your food on fire". OMG that is hysterical. I can just imagine kids playing this and rolling on the floor laughing. Such a lot of fun.

Games are the ultimate media platform. You’re live rendering a world you’ve created top to bottom. You get to control everything a user experiences and it can include haptic feedback, sound, visual, and experiences not possible out of a book, video, music. On top of that you’re often pushing engineering boundaries to provide some best in class experience but also just because that’s what you need to make make computers do cool things haha. I just love everything that has to come together to actually get a game to a user. I didn’t do game programming but I’ve been toying with firing up some side project again after this.
