I made a game! (Quick update)

[@onceuponasynth]

Wishlist on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/1905040/The_Last_Medic/ Trailer: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5SpZWxsoNaBjZo

[@robertsyrett1992]

Added to the wishlist, glad to see it will be available on mac. Would love to know more about how it was made. Here's to hoping you are the next ConcernedApe.

[@DopeSkills]

gl matey!

[@Yannleon_video]

Glad to see you again! Wish you a lot of success with your development/games. I totally get what you have been through; I took almost the same path, being a analyst programmer for my bread and butter, and spending that money and the remainging time on the music, my "real purpose in life". Did a full sabatical too for music... but it did nothing good... due to bad timing and stress(Covid). What a hard path. I don't know about how you did manage to remain "sane" so far ;-)

[@dillipphunbar7924]

good onya......always enjoyed your yt videos...music and humour...hope the game takes off

[@SpikesStudio3]

Hey bro, what's this thing that posted a reply on my comment? looks dodgy as shit to me...

[@RoomAtTheTopStudio]

Hey once upon a synth, glad to see you back. You had a lot of us worried about you. Great to see you in great health. Phew

[@MayzMatthiasYzebaert]

True! 😅 Glad he's back.

[@markMelgeorge2845]

welcome back. youtube is a crazy thing. because you have done a lot of videos, and I have watched all of them, I feel like I know you and your a mate. so when you wasnt up loading I got worried about you and well being, especially with the pandemic. so I can honestly say that I am so pleased that your safe and well. the game looks brilliant and I wish you every success with it. look forward to your future videos what ever they may be. also dont over think the content, as alot of us like you and your style of video making and will probably watch whatever you want to up load so all power to you "Brudda"

[@JorbLovesGear]

Great to see you're doing well, and seems like you've been plenty busy! Looking forward to the game, best of luck to you.

[@j_c_93]

If you do decide to give KZbin another go, and are interested in hearing our thoughts on what videos we enjoy, I have to say that the One Synth Challenges are at the top of my list. They are brilliant to watch and extremely inspiring. I enjoy all of your videos, though. Maybe you can try doing some game programming videos as well to expand the channel.

[@strange_loops]

just wanted to say.. I think you should be very very proud of this channel. You influenced a lot of us here and provided lots of great education and inspiration for all of your viewers. Monetization on KZbin can be brutally tough to make sustainable and I don't think it should be tied to how "successful" once upon a synth is as a project.

[@DaxPegels]

Wow I have spent more times checking for any news from you the past two years than I cared to admit. Good to see you back

[@iomariani8822]

Same.

[@shaunsensei6948]

I haven't even watched the video yet but I'm soooo glad he's back. It's really good to see one of my favourite youtubers back

[@kkenny]

23:29 "I put everything into it.. but if people don't like it, I guess that's cool too" Man, I genuinely wish I had your mindset and focus in making creative projects because I tend attach my self-worth to the success or failure of anything I make, so I usually don't go all in on a project and just "half-ass" it. I would love to hear more about your work ethic and how you approach "failure" creatively. PS just wishlisted. Best of luck to ya :)

[@Strages_Powers]

Wow dude, was worried about you, reached out on several channels, glad to see you're alive !

[@_alexxon]

Don’t go without a clue next time please. We are worried about you but now it’s so good to see you here again. Welcome back🎉

[@joshshoe5024]

21:22 That's awesome! So I watched the trailer before finishing your video, and my first thought was how the platforming felt Celeste inspired.

[@kidbuu770]

Your videos on the Moog Grandmother have been so helpful. I started watching last fall when I copped my unit. Now I am creating smash hits! cheers to your new game!

[@TheAtomicTom]

This may sound hyperbolic, but I'm just glad you are still alive and well

[@rae.workshd5060]

You had us worried bout you once upon a synth.. good having around again.

[@codyrathman]

Excited to see you back! I loved your videos before the pandemic and noticed the dropoff. Revisited some videos just last week and noticed people asking about you in the comment sections. Glad you are well and on a new chapter! I'll be buying the game and playing it! Looking forward to what you do next!

[@5toyan]

Dude!!! You're alive!

[@MakeSomething]

OMG! You have been missed! This is crazy exciting. Can't wait to see the game!

[@Usgmusteret]

I'm glad to see you healthy! great project you did there!

[@mrfenderado]

Great !!! You are one of my music references on my way back to home music studio. I would also like to create videogames with music, but I have no idea about programming. So, good look on journey, I will support with my likes and views!

[@piggycity]

NIce video man, stay on the righteous path of living your life! Well done! I also discovered your videos this summer and I must say your content is amazing! Never ever, ever, ever, second guess yourself!

[@aseomg]

Throughout my chapters in life, I can’t seem to keep indoor plants alive, haha 😆 Glad to see you & your house plants again!

[@benwright9238]

So glad to hear from you. You’ve been a big inspiration in regards to recording my own music.

[@eulman09]

He’s back! We’ve missed you. Can’t wait to learn about this game you’ve made.

[@filip_one_note]

Just checked on your channel and I’m glad to know you’re still alive. I wish you all the best for your game!

[@BalverinUA]

wow, one of the favourite yt channels is back

[@gapalp]

Welcome back! I see so much of me in you. I am a software developer too, and a musician and artist on the side. I stuck with the 9 - 5pm job since I have family obligations and do my music/art projects on the side. Very tough to get those side projects done though, when you work a career job during the week. I also get tunnel vision too and have many interests. Now you got me thinking about creating a video game and doing all the assets too. Ugh, I don't have time though...lol. Best of luck to you. The game looks great!

[@Renzsu]

It's on my wishlist now, and will purchase when it's released. You've provided so many fun videos in the past, it's the least I can do. You could make a production series here on youtube, and maybe think about starting a Patreon where you can provide stuff like synth patches, game scripts or whatever. Or maybe livestreams with donations, where you do a playthrough or something. Just a tip/plea, don't just drop of the radar next time!! :) You had a lot of people worried.

[@54LZ]

Woah! I didn't know you were a software dev, that's cool. And you're developing a game? You really know how to suprise. The game looks cute, hopefully it's successful and profitable for you. :) And I know already by now that the soundtrack will be great.

[@tuc5987]

Great to see you again, and for my part I'd very much welcome a closer look at how you created the music for your game, hear your thoughts behind it.

[@DeionReverie]

God I’ve been worried about you! Glad you’re okay and I’m really excited to try the game.

[@bcornels]

I’m so glad to see you’re alright and have been doing something amazing!!

[@kennybalistic]

Trailer looks great! The music sounded like you (wish is awesome)! Wishing now that I had a windows pc haha. It was such a pleasant surprise seeing your video on my feed today. In the hainbach voice, it’s good to have you back. You (and your plants) appear to have grown a lot! Looking forward to seeing more of your videos. Would love to see some BTS re: the score and sound design.

[@InvertedPopesMusic]

How I missed this video I will never know (probably the YT notifications!) Great to see that you are well and like the 125K subs it is a joy to hear you and what you have been up to. Totally understand where you are coming from as those of us in the same game on this YT journey are all to aware of the pitfalls. Look forward to see what you do from here on.

[@drkhrs_]

Extremely happy to see you back man. I was looking everywhere to see if you're alright. Glad to have you back.

[@faremissound]

So glad to see you back! You've been an inspiration for me and I learned a lot from your videos! The game looks amazing!!!

[@ivvrthehomeless]

I love your music and this channel glad to see you back! Hella proud of you the game looks and sounds amazing!

[@cameronanns4506]

I'm studying Computer Science and enjoy programming -- when I first watched your videos I was just learning about synthesizers, sound waves and electricity. It is wonderful to hear your story and see your growth! Glad you got the refresher you needed!

[@bronzeclassic4566]

WOAH!!!!! So stoked to see a video from you. I still watch your previous videos fairly often. So glad you are doing well.

[@chiefbucknell]

Loved this video. Thanks for being so honest and open about your process and experience.

[@TheNimasan]

very very happy to see man. really missed you!!!! your channel helped me alot and i am still a big fan and still watch your videos. i am sure you will have success no matther what you do. whishing you all the health and luck in the world!

[@semantixthasorcera]

Really good to see you pop up in my subs brother! Glad to see you're well, I'm super pumped for all the future creations that you have for us. Good luck with the game, it looks and sounds fantastic!!

[@vatsalsingh2554]

Hey once upon a synth. Glad to see you back in good health and spirits! Your videos inspired me to purchase a modular synth. welcome back.

[@colinwright27]

Good to see you back. I still listen to your Sun album every now and again. I loved the 'making of' videos you did for that.

[@PovertyThor]

Omg so glad to see you’re still kicking! Love your channel and would check in from time to time and always wonder where you went.

[@AOblongApe]

Aways inspirational and this is an awesome update after the hiatus. Do you!

[@groovinkeyz]

Nice to see you back... I love your channel. I still watch your tutorials. Watching you talked now is very inspiring!. All the best for your career..

[@najiteachebo7795]

Hey man, thanks for your honesty and transparency. I feel like that takes courage so props for that. I’m glad you’re doing well and are walking on your artist’s journey! I’m rooting for you!

[@dkolmusic]

that's funny, I'm also a software developer and musician on side and just as I thought "maybe I should make a simple game and music for it" you posted this video! glad to see you're ok

[@paradiddle16]

Always enjoyed your vids and good to see ya back!

[@martialpanyvino]

I am really happy to see you back, and to know you are doing well We were worried you got sick or worse, so it is really good news :) Plus you are working really hard on stuff you love, which i believe is key to reach happiness Anyways, welcome back ! I'll be sure to check your video game, just as i checked your album back then ;) Have a good day/evening !

[@ahzootube]

Welcome back! Keep making videos about the game you made. Algo will like it 😊

[@DrLaemmerbein]

You are basically living the life I never dared to live :D I also have tons of ideas and so many interests that I don't really know how to make it all work... I still have my normal job in IT and try to live out some things in my free time. Although that's not too fulfilling. And I totally understand that you wanted to focus 100% on the game - sometimes one can be so focused on something new that everything pales in comparison. I wish you all the best for the game and please continue your journey on doing what feels best to you!

[@JedHelmers]

As a software engineer, synthaholic and a noob to Unreal Engine myself I'd just like to say, I'm glad you're back!

[@davidledoux1736]

It is truly inspiring to see you openly discussing your wrestling match with balancing a desire to do what truly moves you and paying the bills. Much success to you as you follow your path.

[@juanmmm36]

i love your videos!!! i will support the game

[@geolessel]

I'VE MISSED YOU! Glad you are back. Wishlisted the game and look forward to playing it!

[@acfpv]

I bought my first hardware synth (grandmother) earlier this year and ran across your channel. Then I watched many other of your vids and noticed you were all but gone from all social media so I guessed you just abandoned the channel. Glad to see you’ve been hard at work on a different passion project and looking forward to the game (I love Celeste) and more videos here!

[@NoirEtBlancVie]

YES!!!!!!!!!

[@munsef.turkmani]

Welcome back.. Good luck and wish you the best

[@SaiChooMusic]

Yooooooooooo glad to hear from you again. Love your song "Lost and Alone"

[@annieraymusic]

So relieved to see you again! I’ve learned a lot about music production from your videos. Great to know you’re pursuing your passion. Take care. ☺️

[@bastienmalek]

It's so good to see you, We were worried. Do whatever you feel is good for your life/career. Hope we'll see more YT videos from you. We wish you the best.

[@TheConair92]

I just found your KZbin channel since I am just starting to learn about synths and I have to say I love your content. Going through your videos has been very educational and helpful. I hope your future projects have success! Also I wish listed on steam!

[@sawyerstudio]

Just got the steam notification! Congratulations, can't wait to play!

[@squoblat]

DUDE! Holy shit I'm glad you're back, I've checked in on you a few times just to see if you'd been back, was beginning to think the worst.

[@liviou2004]

What a surprise, and a good one of course ! I'm happy to see you back, and sermingly in a good health.

[@JAdeWii_]

Was literally thinking about you the other day and hoping you were ok. I’m glad to hear you’ve been in cave mode creating something amazing. You truly are top 10 in the game when it comes to talent- always love your music and rhymes, glad to have you back and hope to see you in person again one day. Cheers my friend ✌️

[@FUNKINETIK]

Just scrolling down the comments here and I noticed you - I watched a little video of yours just a day or two ago showing some sweet basic stuff on a little Casio keyboard, it was sounding like Minnie Ripperton’s ‘Lovin’ You’. I must watch some more of yours, take care. P E A C E : )

[@ToyKeeper]

Have been very tempted to do the same... making a game I've been wanting to make for ages. Will definitely be following to see how it goes!

[@JoeHannouch]

Great update! thanks for sharing, Celeste was one of my favorite games, definitely going to try out your game as it takes so many elements out of it. Good job

[@ahsdiecb]

Hey, I watched the trailer in steam. Looks interesting and I liked the music! I sort of identified with your predicament, though I decided to keep music as a pure hobby. So, hang in there and best of luck! One comment, I would change the color scheme used in the game, I did not find it appealing, but that just me. Good to have you back.

[@j_c_93]

You are still one of my favorite musicians ever.

[@goshagood5607]

Very cool trailer! I wish you good luck with your game and also wish you good luck with your music, it's beautiful music and great inspiring channel

[@brianbrill]

Congrats! Good to see you back.

[@nathanpohl]

I'm very relieved to see you are doing well. Very cool to see a whole game by you! You really helped me start off with synths, thanks for that. One day hopefully I can make a game too!

[@RobCowie]

Gotta say I'm very happy you poked your head back on here after that absence. A few of us got worried due to the timing of your departure. Cheers!

[@paperfoe]

I'm so glad you're back! Been missing you a lot. But you should have at least said a word!

[@hghalo]

Welcome back! Good luck to you. Really happy to see you again ❤️

[@CaptainWampum]

Oh my gosh, so glad to see you back! I, like many of us, were worried something had happened to you! So glad to see you still creating and being true to yourself. This is one of the most honest and human feeling channels in the synth KZbin world and I appreciate everything you’ve brought to the table here. So excited to see what you’ve been working on and I hope you keep giving us updates! Thank you!

[@edgeofugly]

I honestly thought he was dead because of covid 🥲

[@SaucemanSauceman]

2 yrs ago your vids helped me back into music... and im a computer guy too!

[@domonkoskiraly]

Your plants have grown beautifully, you must have taken good care of them

[@sarsedacn]

Hey. Glad you're back. I really hope you could make enough so that you could continue on the music side. your decision was extremely inspirational to me as an engineer/scientist who has multiple passions.

[@pajarodebarro]

Thanks for this video. we miss you!

[@alvin_row]

Man the devlogs would've been so good

[@ctd_audio]

Glad to see you back, and good luck with the game! A lot of what you said I can really relate to, and good on you for pursuing it!

[@ethanhanna2710]

You might want to consider short form content - TikTok and KZbin shorts! I'm super excited for all of your content either way, but short form is certainly not as intensive and I think your content would be super neat in that form!

[@troyh1602]

Nice to have you back! I love your channel!

[@whitesonar]

holy moley, you're back! glad you're ok, you're videos are really inspiring

[@CharlesHardingA]

Welcome back! Missed the channel.

[@BobBell.]

Yooooo! I’ll watch this when I’m not as hungover but just wanted to say glad you’re alive my man 🙌

[@divergentdge6732]

I must say a platformer definitely seems like the most promising genre/idea you could've gone for, look forward to trying it out. And hopefully it being ported to linux if it really goes well.

[@joao4333]

glad you're back, really want to see art to music again

[@DerekPower]

No apologies needed =] When you first described the game, it reminded me of Incoboto, which has a similar vibe, though it has a narrative to guide it.

[@johnstaf]

Great to see you back! We missed you.

[@lostlang]

Life is good when your posting-love it

[@ralph_s]

We have a lot in common. I'm also a software developer with a passion for music. I also made a (unsuccessful) game in the past, it's one of the hardest things because you need to be good at marketing, technical and artistic side of things. I created a music app during the last 2 years, but I'm planning to go back to making games. Good luck on your journey!

[@sam33256]

So glad you're back!! Missed ya videos, you have been a big inspiration for me the past 2 years :-)

[@kinzhalcrni]

Nebs, brate… hvala bogu što si živ i zdrav 🙏 Teško sam se brinuo da ti se nešto tragično desilo… nažalost, mnogo sveče su se ugasile u prošlim godinama, i čak tamo dje se naj manje očekuje. Uvek javi da si tu ili da si na “pauzi”… a pogotovu ako ti treba neka pomoć. Uplašio si nas… ali ajde… naj važnije da si tu i da ti je dobro (nadam se). Želim ti puno sreće sa novim projektom!! Bon voyage!

[@sub-jec-tiv]

Don’t sweat the negative comments bruv, glad you’re doing well. The game looks super cool. Feel free to disable comments if comments mess with you. Glad you’re finding a new way to be creative.

[@atomboyd]

Really glad you’re okay & back! Looking forward to the game.
