Indie devs consistently making shit miles better than anything AAA corps could ever think of

[@nothingtoseehere9119]

real

[@blankface9363]

Not suprising. Big companies don't need to make good entertainment to make a profit from what i have gathered.

[@sorachatrukasuwan285]

It's not that they make it better than AAA games but that they care about the player not seeing the players as fat stacks of money

[@saibaEgg]

The wonders of not being held back by investors who don't actually play your product.

[@Ghosty_YT307]

So true, small games are somehow always better

[@aidanmatthewgalea7761]

can't wait for rainworld meets space engineers who gave the survivor a protean gundam

[@Cosmixthegoober_]

I LOVE RAINWORLD‼️‼️

[@Airier8]

I LOVE SPACE ENGINEERS‼‼(and rainworld)

[@amog8202]

[@Cosmixthegoober_]

@@Airier8 I HAVEN’T EVER HEARD OF SPACE ENGINEERS BUT IT SOUNDS KINDA COOL‼️‼️

[@inserterer]

@@Cosmixthegoober_ ITS IS A GAME ABOUT ENGINEERING IN SPACE‼‼

[@WhatABlankName]

YES FINALLY ANOTHER DEVLOG.

[@wyvrius]

LETS GOOO

[@RobertLedesma-yk5po]

YIPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEE!

[@Whattheheck_.]

YYEEEEESSSS

[@gingercat1024]

LET'S GOOOOO !

[@bar_max4807]

YEAHHHH!

[@placeholderdoe]

2:24 “It just works” you better know the weight you carry with that phrase.

[@FungusFindersBeware]

Todd Howard moment

[@shadydaemon4178]

I bet he does, and he didn’t regret saying it.

[@niuage]

Challenge accepted :p

[@Neukend]

omg hodd toward

[@chipwilson6118]

Todd Howard: "It Just Works"

[@theabstractguy411]

There is a forth classification of player… the playing-god classification!

[@blackrubygamer3428]

Every game with a building system has this kind of player, and I am all for seeing the chaos unfold from them!

[@ZinychDev]

Upon seeing them, some will immediately quit the game... Because of the number of elements, their pc will die

[@scared1585]

and the "over-engineer who makes warcrime machines" classification

[@litterbox019]

"hey guys it's josh and welcome to let's game it out"

[@Shadow_lord9983]

I fell out of my chair. I can already see the hell that man would unleash in this game

[@phailupe2941]

Oh shit it’s here finally! The first (second) devlog!

[@LUNCHWARS]

Second actually

[@V0IDWARE]

Nah it's the first. Devlog #0 was more of a status update on SS

[@dutchthenightmonkey3457]

WE ARE SO BACK BOYS HOLY I HAVE BEEN CHECKING THIS CHANNEL EVERY MONTH PRAYING

[@Crimson_wolfe]

Same

[@ironwarrior_sa8091]

relatable

[@gamingcat6034]

Can’t wait to make a levitating tank that spawns mini dragonfly drones that spawn heat seeking missiles.

[@CODWALRUS]

I too wanted to make that, then I paid five dollars to realise I need to learn C++ in order to actually build things

[@Bigblackhawk123]

Glad to see it’s going in a survival game category. Those environments do not need to go to waste. Like seriously those dark areas with pillars everywhere? Fits way too well for a game like this

[@Victor-um9ce]

Feels like Blame! and I hope it goes in that direction more.

[@Atmatan_Kabbaher]

Dev areas are always games' best liminal spaces. They all should be kept.

[@DiceRRoll]

I imagine that you will start in a zone that is very friendly for creatures to live in And then for example you can adventure in a more complex environment and you got to change your own creature to adapt whatever way you want This is so cool I want three games like this

[@dumaass]

@@DiceRRoll Like subnautica, but this. Would be fucking awesome. Would also be way too much to ask of a single person, so fuck that :/

[@DiceRRoll]

@@dumaass sadly, but it doesn't prevent me from dreaming

[@Edu44FromRobloxLol]

Babe, synthetic selection devlog dropped

[@Atmatan_Kabbaher]

Dameless

[@typryor2227]

I’ve dreamed about a game like spore where everything else evolves along with you! Really excited to see how this is gonna turn out!

[@King_Chip9]

I miss spore 😢

[@sanddry738]

WOOOOOO! Just seeing the development and concepts is so fascinating. I did love the INSANE looking procedural bosses from the very first stuff before you even had this channel but it’s crazy to see how things changed. Best of luck with the continued development

[@jeffthepuppetYT]

A developer on KZbin who didn't instantly abandon their project? This is getting interesting.

[@unknao]

What do you mean? This looks pretty abandoned as it is.

[@Timlockwood8818]

I swear KZbin somehow knows when a channel is going to upload again. I always get recommended a video of a channel that hasn’t uploaded in a while not long before they upload again.

[@S0Laggy]

Hi I’m excited to see whats next it’s so cool! Edit 1: I am so confused on how you did this but I feel this will become the future of games. Ima stick around and see where this heads!

[@Insanity_TM]

2:59 this is the best example of “OH F### OH SH## OH GOD GET ME OUT OF HERE”

[@idiotmiho]

that jumping wing transformation combo is the coolest thing ive seen

[@papakanas6472]

I KNOW I LOVE IT

[@streamers3554]

You’re the ONLY dev making all this? Dude wtf. I assumed at least 3-5 ppl were doing this

[@Atmatan_Kabbaher]

Let's pay him enough to hire a team

[@user-mk8kt7hv7c]

I cannot fathom a AAA studio making a game like this, and I've not been more excited to see a dev log in a while! Bravo!

[@TQAET]

HE DID IT, AFTER MONTHS HE ACTUALLY MADE HIS FIRST DEV LOG!

[@derp__king6144]

Second

[@TQAET]

@@derp__king6144 yeah, that was the joke.

[@TQAET]

@@derp__king6144 yes, that was the joke.

[@V0IDWARE]

​@@derp__king6144eh, it was more of a status update.

[@yourlocalmoron153]

this is some of the coolest shit i've seen, please don't leave us after a few devlogs like Mythic Legion

[@TheArachnidCompany]

Lets Go!! Some progress, i am so bloody hyped!!

[@LUNCHWARS]

I’m really glad my 7 segment display node graph was put into the devlog. If you’re wondering, it’s the one at 1:20.Still disappointed my calculator didn’t make it into the video though

[@tylerhilpisch7850]

the creating and sharing their ideas is reminding of the old game Spore, loved that game

[@Ears_Vr]

I was just going back through my playlists and I checked if you posted anything and BOOM! 29 minutes ago! 😁

[@Pedrobruce-dj7vp]

Wow, I saw the last devlog, but I didn’t think the system could make so many different things. This is a technical marvel!

[@Fredrick..]

I literally check you channel every almost anytime I can for devlog so I was so exited to see this after my trip to italy

[@joshualoiacono5488]

This is an amazing project! No expectations, just grateful you’re sharing this with the community cause it’s super inspirational and looks like a blast to play with! Thanks :)

[@turquoisephoenix6548]

HELL YES! I've been waiting for another dev log

[@Number_055]

It's amazing to see how far this project has come. I love the robotic insect designs that show up pretty frequently. Reminds me of a game I loved as a kid called Drone Tactics. Completely different gameplay (turn based tactics) but based around giant insect robots. Also, steam workshop integration for craft and module sharing would be amazing. Just saying.

[@CoqueiroLendario]

Oh damn I was testing out this game last week, Spent a good 40 minutes making a custom logo for the team and proceeded to fawn over every time the logo appeared on player phase

[@vicenteperez2136]

i love the idea of robot ecosystems from the start of the video up to here 0:24 really caught my attention at how things move so smoothly and animal like but knowing its made from small parts makes it crazy how fluid it is please keep up on the animations of this it makes things so beautiful to look at

[@TheGreegles]

This is my first impression of your work, and i'm absolutely blown away! I can't wait to see where this goes.

[@axellenhart7890]

Damn man it's good to see you!

[@cyborghunter2.093]

[@jumperclown2681]

Nice! new devlog, keep em coming! The evolution aspect sounds like a fun direction to go in! This game is a good combination of the behavioral crafting of Gladiabots, and the structural crafting of Besiege.

[@waaarum]

YESSSSSS, I LOVE THIS, I WAS WAITING SO LONG TO SEE MORE OF THIS

[@Microplay-Interactive]

Waited for soooo looooong for this devlog . Finally!!❤❤ Honestly i thought we will never get any other update.

[@M_1024]

This may be my favourite game when its finished

[@kigamezero8636]

Dude, I was literally thinking about this project earlier today. Love to see that this is still ongoing.

[@cedrikgalaxy5495]

update on the game lets goo, ive been looking for it for a while now happy to see it being continued

[@Xneuz]

Concept looks exceptional. Can’t wait to get my hands on it. :)

[@Fiftymoon033]

I am so happy to see another video about this game. can't wait to see where it goes

[@Sincuttiere]

We are all likely excited for this--as we should be. This is both exciting and frankly, phenomenal

[@DarkDax]

Genuinely amazing. You can already tell the depth of player creations will be vast and impressive.

[@developerluke11]

Keep up the good work! This is amazing.

[@LittleBigStinker]

finally! I really was excited to see another video. I wish i could get early access to this game it seems so fun.

[@lukeystuff]

Can't wait to see how this project develops!

[@I401]

Finally, i was looking at this channel a few days ago. Glad im hearing more about this

[@xaxtheguy4737]

Even at this point its already amazing keep ip the good work my guy

[@imshlomo2206]

Please keep going 🙏 . This is amazing!

[@boundaryegg1384]

wow, this looks so cool, i love the idea of the creatures adapting to the player like imagine if every run has different enemies for every player that would be so unique. :)

[@donstenzel]

hey man really love the idea of this game and so far it looks amazing!! can't wait to see what the final result will look like. i want to develop games myself in the future and i really love emergent gameplay so this is a great motivation and inspiration :)

[@joaomaria_santos]

Worked with evolutionary computation on a few projects and doing a thesis on it now haha pretty hyped for the game! Keep it up!

[@maxabajillion]

This looks super promising. I've seen those (bird/snake) procedural videos before and I had no clue you were the one to make them. I should've known, but still looks like an amazing project.

[@not_Shade]

I feel guilty for not knowing about this amazing project until now, I cannot stress enough how absolutely incredible this looks. Much love

[@PMisant]

Really nice discovery keep out the good work !

[@hazyhollow-indiegame5066]

Amazing work ! Keep it coming 🔥
