[@zacclark5945]

You should make your walls connect on both ends. This makes it so you can just walk around when the cat blocks you. Alternatively/additionally, you could just have a bunch of doors. That way you could have multiple guests over and throw your pizza party once and for all!

[@alien1162]

1 tile wide but the walls are all doors! I love it.

[@luis4ever887]

Exactly what I wanted to say!

[@dharmallars]

Circle house!

[@bm6413]

Yeah was wondering why he didn't make corridors. Also could a bed be placed in a hallway with 4 ways leading directly to it?

[@shycherrygirl]

I feel like those changes are kinda cheating, isn't the cat blocking him just part of the challenge? I considered doors myself while watching, the connecting walls is an interesting idea too tho! I just feel like they ultimately would defeat the point of the challenge

[@Th3BlackLotus]

I've got a video idea for you. The Modular house. Each room is only 1 tile wide, and each room is disconnected from the others. So the kitchen is just a door and a stove, and then they have to leave to go walk to another room(building) to either eat or sleep or what have you. No rooms can touch or connect except at corners maybe.

[@rarukumaaru7612]

I realized I watch your videos because your voice is basically ASMR. It's too powerful!

[@thundercheckov9782]

One day you'll wake up and realise you're the protagonist of one of ambiguous amphibian's playthrough. We ultimately all are

[@KirstenlyArt]

This made me think about all the times my cats have patiently waited for me to wake up, only to joyfully greet me every morning, all the times they have made attempts to play the things i am playing (with limited success) because they want to be involved and clearly its fun for me, and all of the times they have rubbed their little faces against me affectionately. Do they sometimes prevent me from doing things on time? yes. But they are forgiven, because as you said: They truly are beings of pure gaiety, merriment and love.

[@justkittensbeingkittens5892]

Yup, my little hellspawns are the most precious things❤️ definitely the cause of any happiness I feel. Buy myself stuff like $10 steam games? Nah, I’m too cheap for that. Spend hundreds of dollars on premium pet stuff? Absolutely. Fr chewy saving my ass with all of their sales lol

[@jamesavery3727]

If you have any exterior walls unpainted, your sim's environment need will plummet as they go to work :(

[@__Irene__]

What a coincidence! I just finished rewatching Kevin's video about starting with 0$ where he said that he was inspired by you. And now you made the video inspired by Kevin's challenge.

[@jmjedi923]

getting blocked in and being forced to pet the cat sounds just like real life living with a cat

[@dnsvls]

The only downside of this video is that it ended after 10 minutes and 28 seconds. I NEED MORE!

[@askthepizzaguy]

He does have stream videos on his other channel, those are hours long. "Ambiguousamphibian VODs" channel.

[@RandomGameGuy]

I love the way you take my nostalgia and push it even beyond my childhood imagination's limitations.

[@KlausWulfenbach]

Even more than your previous Sims challenges, I find this terrifyingly relatable. I might need to re-evaluate my life.

[@TinkyTheCat]

"... blocking the hallway, forcing me to pet the cat." All is going according to plan.

​@@youmukonpaku31681-tile wide apartment complex? I find it quite simple really

[@ivoryowl]

That ended better than I expected. When he invited the guests and then adopted a cat, I kept thinking he was going to get blocked in one of those corridors, prompting him to miss work, which would result in a performance decrease or worse... getting fired. IMO the smartest option would have been to rent that 1-tile house for 1000$ simoleons... just like in real life. :P

[@thefive8th741]

As a cat owner, I can confirm that the little fella has indeed made me happier. Never knew a tiny little feline could be so entertaining 😂

[@woodpigeon7776]

You’re one of the best KZbinrs bro. I’m a die hard original Sims fan: although I fully condone sucking out the social from people, rather like repeated binge-listening of a favourite tune to suck the dopamine out of it; I believe the NPC sims’ social will also go up as well as yours? So it’s more like farming social, as it regenerates.💗

[@MubarackOsama]

The memories. I once had a sim who never slept and if i remember correctly all you have to do is drink two cups of coffee after every action. Annoying and not efficient but a fun challenge.

[@PandoricaLost]

I just love how convoluted this was for just ONE promotion! 🤣

Can confirm cats and pizza have the ability to improve one's life substantially. Everything else is of minor importance.

Suggestion for a Sims video: 1. Invite people round for house parties, slaughtering them. 2. Create a graveyard with the tombstones. 3. Make a maze from the kitchen to a bin. 4.
