How I Became A Game Publisher

[@NamidaSai]

You’ve all got 13 seconds to go buy the game and make Z&J rich and famous. Go go go!

[@HoodedOlive]

You seem like a good publisher. After all you did publish this video.

[@LTGD]

There's a lot of publishing going on

[@HoodedOlive]

@@LTGD I guess by my logic I’m also a publisher. That’s weird.

[@inik4us]

Zayne Black.. Now that's a villain name.

[@LTGD]

Muahahahahaha.

[@naadlos]

Amazing.. that was a funny storytime 😅 Thanks for sharing and good luck

[@LTGD]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it

[@mthw]

Next month: "We've been acquired by Microsoft, welcome to Xbox Studio Black Country. To celebrate we'm goin fishin daahn the cut. Tarabit."

[@LTGD]

reIterate() is now Gamepass exclusive

[@mthw]

@@LTGD Well. Ar'll goo t'the foot of our stairs.

[@Rzorclw]

Not boutta lie, bruh, I feel like this poggers game is gonna pop-off in the next few weeks.

[@floorbeardthepirate1141]

Imagine some big KZbinr plays it on stream and it blows up overnight.

[@Rzorclw]

@@floorbeardthepirate1141 That'd be insane, lol.

[@DakotaVaughan]

this video came out in kind of the perfect time haha, seeing as I'm thinking about publishing a project myself haha. Also, your surname being black is pretty gamer

[@LTGD]

Kinda pog right?

[@DakotaVaughan]

@@LTGD very pog

[@aRandomBlobfish]

Nice video! Definitely will get game.

[@GreenBlueWalkthrough]

Honestly a really thoughtfull name and great job on your getting on becoming an single A publisher! Which only seems to happen with single A games get insanly successfull and the dev does not get canccled on twitter. You uh did that before the big success well done I have never heard of that before!

[@bethandoeswords6750]

Nice personal touch to your videos! Look at you, opening yourself up to the masses! Go you!

[@AquariumRick]

Now we should get eazyspeezy to play it and speed run it

[@LTGD]

If you can get hold of em, I've got a key waiting whenever they want it.

[@autumnshade84]

Loved the story. Loved the link to your family history. You sir, am an inspiration to me and many others. Thanks for sharing your journey with us.

[@icoso]

Awesome stuff! I've always admired how much you've been in touch with your community and this is a fantastic example of just that! Great work, Zayne and Jay :D

[@LTGD]

I count you as part of our community too, y'know. :D

[@icoso]

@@LTGD Always glad to be a part of it! :D

[@teo4349]

So TL;DW: Zayne brainwashed us to play Quackley?

[@LTGD]

Shhhh. Don't tell anyone. .

[@fosterturtle]

Good to hear! Congrats on becoming an official publisher!

[@serialchiller9183]

Flashy... Seriously flashy.

[@Skeffles]

Neat to see you publish this! Love the name of company too. Can't wait to see you on E3 stage next year.

[@breffish]

proud to say i caught the yogscast reference... LOL. congrats on the release!

[@Vakantscull]

just discovered you through rosetintedspectrum's quickley quackley review :)

[@parsuli.]

If this game gets a macOS release, I'll certainly buy it.

[@UnderfundedScientist]

Congratulations

[@Golemofstone]

Great video, I used to play a lot of JetSet/Manicminer back in the day so i'll go buy this and your game when i get paid, also i feel as a fellow English "Fellow" we always seem to give a lot of props to our grandfathers and not dads, nothing wrong with that but as a dad myself it feels kind of sad that i have to wait for my offsprings offspring before i feel kinda complete as a person >.< As a side note do you plan on doing any videos on how you went about doing all that "Admin stuff" with regard to publishing on steam etc ?

[@eboatwright_]

Wow! That's so awesome! :)

[@nichegames9590]

Very interesting. I'll have to follow how it does.

[@cameroncook6643]

Great video man, keep up the good work!

[@zeakz69]

I have a honestly big question, if i list my steamworks company as "sole proprietor" would i still be able to publish others games/setup a revenue share? or would i have to go and register a company and edit my steamworks agreement?

[@derhinek]

Now, how do we get some speed runners to try Quackley on their channels?

[@monkcode1255]

This game is cool

[@LTGD]

It is!

[@FeniksGaming]

Glad - Glader - Gladys stages of being more glad :)

[@EmInSpace]

good video, good game, good publisher. we need to talk sometime, lol

[@LTGD]

Step into my office

[@clonethirteen]

So your a game publisher too now? I'll keep that in mind.

[@bataragamesstudio]

great video, i would like to know which site do you make the publishing company legit?

[@AquariumRick]

I'm gonna go and but the game. Suck at it. Stream on twitch on how much I suck and just before reiterate is released (probably 3 years from now :P) I'll have finished half the levels

[@harveykyle3690]

how long did it take you guys to make Quackley?

[@noahbruce6957]

Rad

[@WallJumpGames]

How do we reach out to Black Country Games, is just the email on the about me page? Do you have any plans to grow into more than a steam page setter-upper? Do you even plan to publish games not from close friends? Also great video (but that is expected)

[@josephjenkins3131]

How did you become a game publisher?

[@shanehof1022]

I wish there was Mac support !

[@KookyBone]

Ah that there is an achievement in the game with the same name as your own game is for sure just lucky coincidence 🤣

[@LTGD]

Dunno how that happened!

[@okok-jf2qw]

How can someone send you a demo, dude?

[@domeen0gt895]

So, does that mean you will publish AND make games now? Or was this a one time thing?

[@LTGD]

I think it might be a recurring thing, dunno. It was originally a one time thing but we'll see.

[@floorbeardthepirate1141]

Does this mean you are an official publisher that I and others can go to to get our games out in the wild?

[@LTGD]

Sure. Long as the game you're making is a 'fit' for I guess the 'brand'? And also that you'd think I'm a fit for you, because that's important too.

[@AndrewBone]

You don't sound like you're from Dudley 😅

[@LTGD]

Every once in a long while, it slips out. I spent years doing media courses and stuff, so I have a sort of "presenter voice".

[@ChickenDev]

I wish my surname was black :(

[@Rhys510]

No link?

[@LTGD]

It's in the description :)

[@fennecfugames]

You're a publisher now? Interesting..🤔

[@LTGD]

Sure. Long as the game you're making is a 'fit' for I guess the 'brand'? And also that you'd think I'm a fit for you, because that's important too.

[@seanarooni]

its black country out there

[@kgofficial-o5p]

Could you please my game? It is still in design phase but I would love it to know if you would be there for when the game releases. I would also appreciate it if you made my game able to pre order on steam, playstation and xbox. if you want money i will pay you when we start raking in money from the game. Thanks!

[@PensnPixels]

No offense bro, but that game looks like it's from 1984 or something. ;)

[@LTGD]

Really old, innit? Gosh.

[@cheeseman4199]

That’s the point

[@cameroncook6643]

first (sorry)
