You've hit your comedic zenith in this episode. Your editing, dialogue, comedic timing and pacing were all on-point. Only showing your face briefly for some pointed humor worked well. (I know it's controversial: some people like seeing the developer's face and some don't; I usually don't, but if you can pull it off, well. . . .) Great work, and I hope this video gets many thousands of views.

[@Goodgis]

Thanks so much. That means a lot. :D

I tried this once and…. it didn’t go so well. It’s waaaaay harder than you’d think to make a working game in a short amount of time. Great video 🙂

You’ve always replied to my comments and questions on stream(which I know will get harder as your channel grows, and I still hope that you will get all of the fame you deserve). You’re also very relatable as a person/developer. It always brightens my day when I see that you’ve uploaded again. Thank you :)

This is such a great video! I should really try this myself. I love the game because my favourite genre of games is 2D platforms. The first game I even played was Oddworld: Abe's Odesty and its one of my favourite games because it takes on the 2D platform genre but without guns.

dude... my guy... why do you do this to yourself lol. i mean, i'm impressed you could bang out a playable prototype in only an hour -- even if it wasn't "good" per say -- but damn, that's some next level shit. i laughed when you got caught up in the design for the art assets because, honestly? same. why struggle to hunt down a typo in your code thats breaking your entire project when you can mess around with finalizing a really nice character design instead? lmfao
