Love to see how only within two months this guy has a decently big fan base Personally I first saw him in the 6 developers make a game without communicating or something and thought he definitely had the personality to be a great youtuber Love your style and personality man keep it up

[@ZweisteinZwei]

As im looking trough the commands i see you gained a lot of subs recently. This is totally justified because i have never seen such a funny devlog. Seriously great work, amazing video and i cant wait for more content from you soon :)

[@bewky]

thank you!

[@_rainbowwolf_]

This video is sick! I for sure thought your channel would’ve at least had 50k subscribers based on how high quality this video feels

[@_rainbowwolf_]

I for real could not tell at all that this is the first video on your channel

[@bewky]

thank you so much, hopefully we get there soon!

I don't think I've laughed this hard or actually laughed during a programming video. This video was so entertaining, keep up the good work!

[@gfilart]

This video was so entertaining and such good quality I was so surprised when i saw the number of subscribers. Videos like these is what made me want to study game dev and take courses so I can do it when I finish high school.

[@christianwilliams4242]

Thanks for this video! I have wanted to try making games for years but never did because the thought of the steep learning curve paralyzed me. Your video made it seem achievable, although I'm sure it was a bit harder than it seemed. Thanks again

[@anawan]

I usually don't watch videos longer than 10 minutes, but wow, really enjoyed every minute of this one. Keep up the good work!

[@Cacti75]

I love this style of game dev videos. Something both devs and gamers can enjoy. Subbed at 16k! You better remember me and everyone else when youre famous!

i will i promise

22.2k subs when I got here nearly ~year I think, since this upload and on way to 600k views. Hope everyone can land like a boss right on one of their other skills maybe combined with another from their literal arsenal of skillsets fully ripened ready to export creatively at an expert with GODMODE cheats activated :)

[@xvoid5338]

Awesome video! I was laid off and have the time learning unity, still learning but I love how you described the process. Inspiring 😊

[@JC-yy5nf]

I was having such a bad day today, and usually KZbin videos don't really make me smile or laugh, they're just a distraction for me. But this video was absolutely great. I got sucked into the video because I'm a dev, but I stayed for the while because the types of jokes were my type of light-hearted humour. Not overdone, just here and there, and just made me actually laugh out loud a few times. Great video, great humour, great end product. Subscribed!

[@bewky]

glad you enjoyed the video!

i can tell based off this video alone that you watch a lot of youtube and have watched a lot growing up. the delivery, sound effects, segments and flow of this overall video were perfect and much more entertaining than any first video should be nowadays for a new channel just starting out.

I asked Dale what he thought about all this and here is what he had to say: "Oh man, I just watched this video titled "(743) i got laid off... so i made a game... - KZbin" and let me tell you, it was a wild ride from start to finish! The creator lost their job but turned their misfortune into a hilarious game development journey with sleep-deprived art styles, chaotic code from Dale (AKA AI), and those sneaky little sharks. Not to mention the epic discovery of procedural island generation and the nail-biting race against the clock to complete the game in time. This was a rollercoaster of emotions, laughter, and game dev tips. If you haven't seen it yet, you've got to check it out! Who knew getting laid off could lead to such a fantastic adventure? 🎮🦈🌴"
