the logo is perfect whoever made it should get a raise 🏭🏭🏭

Ffs 😂

Jace probably could become the PR manager for the entire holding company at this rate, though I have a feeling he might not want to because of all the extra work that would be involved. 😄

[@clcla20]

now its time for coffee stain brewery. the division that actually makes coffee.

[@JohanReichert]

Where is the coffee merch!

[@KrimsonStorm]

Actually it should be a distillery and just throw everyone for a loop. You thought it was coffee, but it is me, your favorite depressant... Alcohol!!!

[@control9lcme]

And subsidiary of that one, which would actually make coffee stains

[@PlebNC]

And its sister company Coffee Stain Stains, who go around putting coffee stains on things.

Amazing to see this story. I think back to Sanctum a lot because it was the game that content creators played (yogscast) and they were super influential into me getting into pc gaming. Really changed the directory of what I liked in games and all of media in general. Really funny to me that I ended up loving Satisfactory years later without realizing it was the same studio. Worlds a quaint place

[@fallout_hun]

Jace: * teaches us how to pronounce 'ö' at 11:17 * Me, a Hungarian: Look at what they need to mimic a fraction of our power! (For context, aside from the non-accented vowels, we have á, é, í, ó, ö, ő, ú, ü and ű in our alphabet, and used to have ë as well but only in pronunciation. We also have double and even triple consonants like 'cs', 'dz', 'dzs', 'gy', 'ny', 'sz', 'ty' or 'zs' that have to be pronounced differently from the single ones, plus use 'ly' instead of 'j' in a lot of cases out of tradition.)

[@LazyGuyCoyote]

Definitely a good breakdown of what y’all are doing and what you’re about for each studio. Probably much needed after the growth and changes over the last decade.

[@eriklunden5218]

The best community managers. I hope when you guys rank up, you never lose your authenticity and good communication.

[@ColinTimmins]

"We're obsessed with your videos! Your explanation was clearer than a window on a sunny day. You guys are like unicorns in a world full of horses. Keep it up or we'll start a support group for video withdrawal. Ain't nobody got time for that!"

[@DJ_Penguin]

TL;DR: Jace needs a raise and it would be cool if he made more videos for Coffee Stain as a whole. I kinda get why coffee stain is the way that it is, but I do think that there should be some sort of unifying name for the company as a whole instead of coffee stain holdings. And Jace should be the face of it. Honestly his work as a community manager for satisfactory is a breath of fresh air in the gaming industry. He really *gets* people and gamers. Like I always wondered about this but I never really asked too many questions, and he makes a whole video explaining all of it. Making videos like this really shows how much you guys care about the games you make AND the people you make them for. I kinda feel proud being a fan and support you guys anyway I can because of this.

[@redundantpancake]

New drinking game, take a shot everytime Jace says Coffee Stain. Awesome vid man! I know you've explained this to me a few times, but this really puts it into perspective well.

[@Dirt1061]

Ghost ship is a cool story, they entered their own publishing thanks to you!

[@porto9972]

gosh i hope one day i can be the community manager and make random videos like this explaining my studios overly complicated structure. those are real life goals right there

[@ontariodrone379]

Hands down one of the best engaged community people out there. Great content on all fronts.

[@vallahdsacretor4839]

Gotta say, this was actually insightful. It's always nice to be able to get a look at the inner workings of a corporate structure, especially when the publishing side and creative side use the same logo with zero distinction at all. That's basically the only thing I'd suggest changing, making Coffee Stain Publishing distinct from Coffee Stain Studios in the splash logos

[@yescoblol]

Off topic af... My childhood friend was a sound designer for goat sim 3, V-rising, flipping death... Its crazy how proud i am of him today, he's a special dude, always has been

[@OneBiasedOpinion]

That was such a cool trip into the backstage workings of your group! I legit did not know y’all had a publishing company linked to you, nor that they were the ones behind some of the best “indie” games on the market. Thanks Jayce! Helps a *whole* lot!

[@Blazin-im6de]

Damn, you turn a corner in Sweden and see a Coffee Stain branch

[@DameSilwek]

I love your natural energy, even boring subjects become enjoyable! (I quit the professional world of video games a long time ago, but I like to keep an eye)

[@theslader]

It's lovely too have a company that is very open about their sisters and group, you don't see that all that often

[@joechakalis5310]

I actually wish more companies would make videos about their structure. Somehow I didn't realize you guys made Sanctum. Thanks, Jace!

[@outka5tz]

You guys are the reason deep rock galactic is my most played game on steam. I would not have got it without my love of satisfactory coffee stain. Also, very helpful video honestly. Excellent idea.

[@Mati_Panzer]

I literally had this conversation with my friends the other day, thank you for clarifying (we love playing Valheim and DRG together, and even tho I don't they all play a lot of Satisfactory too)

[@praayos]

The video no one asked for, but the video we needed.

[@willlokeer5469]

Really cool and entertaining take on how CSS fits in the bigger picture. For me it's one of those "I'm pretty sure this is how it works" and I'm glad that I was fairly close to the mark. Thanks Jace!

[@TheBeholder333]

jayce is like that one indian guy on youtube making a great tutorial - right here a tutorial on how to be a genuinely a great community manager, when you as a consumer watch a nothing-burger video (because that's exactly what it is here) and enjoy watching it, this proves the quality of the creator.

[@Jakala2257]

New title : All the studio we bought that have make a game I liked .

[@RustyEcks]

Thank you Jace! That was incredibly informative and thoughtful of you to make. Ps. I like your videos even if they are fillers and I wish more developers would do what you, Snutt and Ilayda do.

[@Ty-Dy]

The fact that this studio made my favourite Tower defense games of all time, Sanctum and it's sequel, and now they are making my favourite factory game of all time is just icing on the proverbial cake.

[@Wendigoop]

A few days ago i had a conversation with my brother about this topic and it is a very convenient timing. Since we were a bit confused about it.

[@WindradeFarren]

You are right AF, I needed this info because it was very confusing. Thanks for this video! And the links.

[@Steven0O0Seagal]

Honestly, I don't care how much you were involved with it. I have never played a bad game that had your logo on it. EVER. So, despite what you say, Coffee Stain has become a symbol of joy to me.

[@taruden2529]

This was remarkably helpful - thanks for making this!

[@Zaf9670]

I haven't played Satisfactory in a very long time. I decided to hold out for version 1.0 yet I keep coming back for the update drip. Plus those soothing voices and speech lessons! 🤣

[@ZarHakkar]

You know, I wouldn't be surprised if some basic code wasn't shared between some of these games, either intentionally or by coincidence. I've played Valheim, Satisfactory, and Deep Rock Galactic, and have observed several elements that feel similar between them. For example, placing pipelines in the On-Site Refining missions in Deep Rock Galactic feels very similar to how conveyor belts are placed in Satisfactory. The building in Valheim also feels similar to building in Satisfactory, but that's a little less notable as quite a few games use the "pieces snapping to various grids" method of building like Rust or Ark.

[@heromedley]

knowing embracer actually owns a bunch of studio who made great games like valheim satisfactory and deep rock galactic theyre the same guys who bought IPs like tomb raider from square enix as well its kinda exciting to see what else these guys are cooking

[@fualdesh6814]

im glad that coffee stains arent all in the same spot

[@NoelJacobson]

Moar Easter eggs between games where possible pls. Music in Satisfactory from the other games is a nice touch. A Satisfactory mug or poster could find it’s way into lots of other Stain games.

This was really insightful, I've been curious about what all made up the company umbrella. I knew that CSS was specifically working on Satisfactory (and maybe web development), but I didn't know the details about the other companies in the umbrella. also Uhh. :o

i was well arare that coffee stain is "just" the publisher for some of the games mentioned, but i see it as a quality seal. I wasnt ever dissappointed by any game published by coffee stain, and i played a lot of those. If im not sure about it but i see theyre the publisher im in for it. Unlike ubisoft or others they wont mindlessly buy devs. Theres some quality work going on there. Greetings from germany, keep up the awesome quality. ♥

Coffee stain as a hole makes some of the best games to ever exist. I have Valheim, Satisfactory, deeprock, and all goat simulator dlcs. The amount of love the devs put in there games and there love towards there community's, is like no other. I also have a passion for they're games and they're goofy, awsome communitys. If you've never played these games you totally should. Play them and you will reach chad status. Rock and Stone! Wait, wrong game.

[@zarphus8087]

ok so youre saying that if i want to keep a sliver of hope for sanctum 3, i should probably pay attention to Box Dragon and Coffee Stain Malmö. you know, until the big reveal that the satisfactory pioneer is just Skye. im still convinced yall decided to make satisfactory while working on a new tower supply and snapping system for sanctum 3 and realized it'd be way better for factory building, and just shifted all focus over.

Thanks, good to know. Valheim is excellent and I've heard good things about Goat Sim and Satisfactory, i am more likely to give them a try now. Request/suggestion: I would love to have my Tobii eye tracker (also a Swedish company) work with more games - could coffee stain build a driver to make their games work with the eye tracker?

[@andrewmelnikov292]

Thanks for clearing this up! However, that makes me wonder: did Ghost Ship collaborate with Coffee Stain Studios in any way on updating DRG. Because when I look at some of their videos of how they changed game process (especially UI/UX feel and "oomph" effect), I feel them leaning into Satisfactory team experience. Maybe they were merely picking good ideas here and there. Then again, maybe you did give them some tips along the way. What do you think?
