He didnt go "extinct". These things take time and he works on it alone. Probably while simultaneously working a job. And then he has to find inspiration or an idea.

I like that during gameplay you intentionally get your character killed, just like how the ads pisses you off by showing crappy skills

[@tommyb1two3]

That's so awesome. Even a 2D version would have been fun but this has been taken to a whole new level. Honestly looks so much more engaging than the games they are trying to promote.

I actually wanted to play a lot of the fake games, they are better than the real game they were advertising lol

[@monocore]

I still remember downloading and playing the nvidia tech demo "Box of Smoke" in 2006 and thinking OMG this tech is right around the corner. Now it's almost 20 years later and we finally see it implemented.

[@ali32bit42]

it wasnt implemented because it was bad for business. the worst thing you can do as a developer is make your game exclusive to niche hardware and require gimmicky and proprietary software to run it . the games that tried to use that feature are now unplayble or lost media because they cant run without that exclusive hardware. and the games that still exist are not using it for anything meaningful

[@GRUMPY134]

While other dinos are in extinction, fat dino just comes back whenever he can

[@mblede]

now imagine being the "dev" that created the fake game when seeing this video. great work as usual!

[@julianlaresch6266]

Id love to see you make those whiteout snow survival game ads where you build the fire bigger to melt a larger area and unfreeze resources

[@bigredlizerd]

This kind of puzzle concept would be fun as a multiplayer co-op game, with one player moving the parts while the other control the character.

[@FatDino]

yep, could be cool!

[@ArchangelExile]

Did you include 30 second ads that automatically play every minute?

[@malindukumaradasa3851]

[@jmagrippis]

Wow, very nice theming, you really nailed the vibes with the setting! Great touches on the textures, and matching sound design. The puzzles were fun too! What a way to take a “puzzles with fluids!” concept above and beyond. 👏👏👏

[@FatDino]

Thank you very much!

[@rafa_br34]

now make it run on mobile I dare you.

[@iAmPerflexed]

I like the idea of having multiple solutions to a puzzle that may take you to a different next room depending which route you take. Each path split leads you to a different ending which makes the game replayable to get all endings with maybe an achievement for each as well as an achievement for finding an Easter egg solution that requires some out-the-box thinking solution that seems unintended but actually is a feature. There is actually a fair bit of potential for a well-made indie game here.

[@VoiceOfMaster]

Bro had whole life in the universe and still didn't do it. The greatest clickbait of all time💀

[@Spyrodious]

Amazing work bro considering that this is an one man project and can make games that even big companies can't

good luck with your journey!

[@mildlyconcerning]

Good luck man!

[@ultgamercw6759]

Honestly looks way better and more interesting than any of the ad's it based on. I'd love to see a much more polished and complex version of this game with a deeper story, more advanced mechanics and longer play time.

[@Amethyst.i]

This looks incredible! I love the concept for this, those game ads get very frustrating 😅

[@ArchangelExile]

Those smoke simulation effects are fantastic.

[@yousefmagdy9410]

Your way of explaining is excellent❤❤❤

[@WeiseGuy91]

Just found your channel. I played with Unity with some tutorials on Udemy before, but never tried making something from a blank canvas and struggled when I tried for real. I'm interested in Unreal instead. Do you have recommendations on getting started making quick protypes like you did in this video and then expanding? I would love to learn Unreal.

[@FatDino]

making small prototype is always a good practice, so yeah, it will definitely help you. Start from something easy and work till you hit the wall, then research and learn new things

[@kenalpha3]

Find a tutorial playlist that gives you a project goal and teaches many things, because learning 1 prototype thing will not be enough (and youll run out of guidance - wont know what to do next). E.g. for me I did a tutorial series (make their thing). Then I knew how to make my own things that they didnt teach.

[@myjunkinyourtrunk1872]

[@TerrorTarun]

Amazing work dude, only if devs actually had enough skills to actually make the ad into the real game, this wouldn't be a huge problem. Also dude what is that drawing software you using to design those puzzles?

[@ironiccookies2320]

The thing is that these ads are probably more expensive to make than the actual game itself

[@strangecolouredbird]

It's about time! Go Fat Dino, thank you for letting is show how easy these ads would be to beat!

[@ltpinecone]

You are a legend! It is baffling to me these companies make these ads of a game people actually want to play, then just...don't make the game? It's such a weird strategy.

[@arnowisp6244]

Because its made by the Ad company hired to make the ad. They just aren't interested with putting effort for money.

[@Jumpyfoot]

My headcanon for this game is that the player character was experimented upon until they received telekinetic powers. That's why you can move all the pipes and such, but once they mastered their powers they returned to the lab to shut it down.

[@AnnabelBrubaker]

It would be a cool idea that somewhere throughout the levels some kind of monster (or the dinosaurs mom) chases you during the puzzels so they could become more time based and it would be a little more spooky.
