I had to upgrade my train to survive!

Trackline Express full release, a survival game where you need to upgrade and power your train in order to survive! It's a lot more hardcore than the cute graphics suggest...

[@bobbys332]

When he mentioned that the safe zone remained behind near the beginning, while clearly seeing it do exactly the opposite (just a safe zone around the station), I just knew he was going to kill someone by moving the train too far. Was not disappointed.

[@cathygrandstaff1957]

Yup and then he never noticed the big warning text that a passenger was out of the safe zone.

[@PureAsbestos]

A small piece of advice: don't overengineer your thumbnails. This is something I've noticed in your recent videos. People want (I do, anyway) to see a bit of the actual game art in the thumbnail. When you crank the contrast up to 11 and use clip art that's not representative of the game (this was quite severe in the Fly Corp video), people get the wrong idea about what kind of video it is going to be. The content is good, but the packaging should match :)

[@booniversegaming]

I mean, he's got over 2 million subs. I'm not sure you'd wanna mess with the formula that got you there.

[@PureAsbestos]

​@@booniversegaming he is completely free to ignore this advice, or to A/B test it, or whatever. I just think I'm probably not the only one who doesn't like the overproduced thumbnails that don't correspond well to video contents. I have been watching him for a while and they didn't used to be like this so much.

[@andrewpavolka1802]

I’m with you on this. I don’t like all the content because some of the games are not appealing to me but not seeing the game in the thumbnail makes it hard for to decide on what to watch.

[@xrexkinect]

People will cry about anything wont they?

[@charlestongue0]

see this is the type of criticism that's said correctly, its just a heads up, just a suggestion from a subscriber looking out for somebody who he likes to watch. there no negativity towards it at all !! kudos you @pureasbestos

[@SubjectiveObserver]

I've always felt that your love of bridges is a close cousin to a love of trains.

@@bokkenka it's been absolutely forever since I've watch any of the Monty Python movies, let alone heard that name. That's crazy

@@Bama_Boy It's not from one of the movies, but the tv show they had. If you wanna consider Live At The Hollywood Bowl show they recorded a movie, it's in there. Peak Monty Python, in my opinion.

[@nihalnoel1165]

The 2D graphics reminds me of the civilisation on top of the turtle game!

[@iniehawk4472]

I believe you are referring to the wandering village

[@Bama_Boy]

​​@@iniehawk4472 I thought that was on top of a dinosaur... The one where your on top of a turtle is World Turtles

[@iniehawk4472]

@Bama_Boy I was thinking of games RCE has played with graphics like this that also build on top of a creature that looks kinda turtle like.

STOP THE RECOMENDING COMMENTS

[@JudasBoB270]

It’s well and truly spam by this point.

[@sbranch82au]

I love the graphics style of this game!!

[@booniversegaming]

This game was great. Played about 8 hours over the last 2 days. Completed my first run through the campaign after 3 attempts. Looking forward to playing with friends.

[@RJ_Eckie]

This is so chaotic I absolutely love it

[@dgy9152]

Hey Matt, didn't you say you were part of designing Dubai's drainage? What's happening over there right now? 😂😂😂

[@oldmanramblingatclouds]

To be fair, it's only happened AFTER Matt started YouTubing lol

[@cathygrandstaff1957]

Yes but it was under budget.

[@Renagede77]

The train is still at 1HP.

[@V.E.D.Gaming]

6100 hp actually

[@Shinare73]

Giving off major parappa the rapper vibes!

[@Bama_Boy]

What? There's no way your saying that. Is it only bc it's 2D and stick figures? That's the only similarities that I see.

[@hackedbyBLAGH]

10:23 I really don't like how you cut to having coal. I was interested and invested in that situation. Like where did the coal come from?? I'm out lol

[@linaskura]

@hackedbyblagh came here to ask the same.. we want to know

[@RyanYoxo]

He had to restart the game. He ran out of coal. You can tell because when he moves the train up he now has to unlock the well which was previously unlocked. It’s a skill issue.

[@booniversegaming]

You put wood on the campfire to make coal FYI.

[@derikduley7806]

I'm very excited to see more

The art reminds me of the game where you combined the cards to make a village etc

Weird game! Matt does love his wierd games! Sad matt is not doing anything in engitwopia and the timberborners ended. Not much poly bridge too. Wonder what he will do! Probably hydroneer, a bit of flycorp and some random challenges in CS2.

It looks fun, but I don't like games that put me under time pressure. I like to explore everything. Look in every bush, poke around in every crevice.

Weird comment

[@xxlucas_davidsonxx2930]

are you using the multiple like images for the video or smth?

[@mistyless7431]

Idk if you ever got an answer anywhere else, but there's a feature creators can use that lets them test a handful of thumbnails to see which one gets the most clicks. Same with titles, so once in a while you might see one video from here or elsewhere, then check back in an hour later and see something different. But it's helpful for getting new eyes on your channel

[@iwansays]

2nd time watching this game on your channel, but the amount of work and the amount of resources you need to maintain on top of area restriction around the train for so little progression make this game so tedious and unsatisfying. It fails to give that dopamine from big numbers and progression like the usual bulding and upgrading games.

? Are you okay ?

[@UltimatePerfection]

@@Bama_Boy Yes, I am okay. And RCE is afraid of Omega Crafter.

[@Bama_Boy]

@@UltimatePerfection how do you figure RCE is "afraid of Omega Crafter"? Or is that just your patronizing way of requesting him to play the game. Bc that's a horrible way to go about it if that's your goal. You should just join the discord and request the game thru the proper channels instead of going about it by being patronizing and negative.

[@UltimatePerfection]

@@Bama_Boy It worked with Mindustry, haven't it?

[@Bama_Boy]

@@UltimatePerfection the person wasn't patronizing him with his request. But since then rce has stated that just bc he played that game based off a comment doesn't mean that you should request games in the comments. The best place to request a game to be played is in his discord, through the correct channels.
