Your Comments Made The Game Harder [100k special]

[@lukemuscat]

UPDATE: ​Day 10 is up and we are all done! Thanks to everyone who participated. I had a lot of fun making this, and then trying to beat each challenge every day with everyone else! After a super fast start, the video views slowed down a lot, so we didn't end up crashing the game. And the final challenges actually ended up being somewhat easier than the early challenges, as I had expected the engagement to continue vaguely linearly over the 10 days. If the video somehow picks up and goes viral in a months time, I'll add a new challenge or two just for fun :)

Let's hope nobody spams this video with KZbin comment bots

[@juscozcustoms]

my favorite build so far is to get enough mace attached (8-10) and you can just reverse into them and collect all the gold as everything just explodes around you. can't wait till day 3 unlocks

Hi

I always like these “community plays” kind of projects. I think it’s a great way to involve an audience in the content

[@abysomething2012]

Yeah! I thought this video was fun to watch!!

[@TaranVH]

The main issue with this game is how random the upgrades are. An entire run will live or die depending on whether or not you got the upgrades you needed. Usually, of the 3 choices, 2 are bad, and 1 is MAYBE helpful. OR maybe they're all good, but you can only choose 1. Or sometimes they're all bad, and you get screwed. If I'm able to upgrade even just 1 of my weapons significantly, I'll win. If not, I'll slowly be overwhelmed and lose, because even when hitting the enemies with every single attack, I'm just not doing enough damage to keep up, at no fault of my own. I almost never get to build the car the way I want. TL;DR: randomness is way more influential than it should be. I might as well just flip a coin to see if I win.

[@bumpyartho3601]

Its crazy how we live in a time where the guy who invented having a good childhood is now making games for our older selves and entertaining us with it

[@theburger_king]

This guy coded my entire childhood in like a week

[@QuintonCenter]

Well said XD

Really great video, excellent showcase of how to come up with ideas and iterate upon them!

[@lukemuscat]

Thanks so much! I am definitely trying to keep a reasonable amount of the pivots and changes to the designs in the videos, so people can see that process.

[@atomical6999]

i love looking at your monitors in the background lol

[@Xfirestorm8]

I’m a game dev myself and I just found your channel through your fruit ninja video. It’s crazy that you made not one but two of the biggest staples in early mobile gaming. Keep up the great work and I look forward to see what you come up with next!

[@GonziHere]

I love how you can create these "tiny" projects that are simply awesome.

[@GrumbulonCeleryYT]

I’m so glad to see your channel doing well! Your videos always have such a cozy and wholesome vibe, it really brightens up my day to see you so passionate about what you do!

[@uwerta5631]

I really like how you’re tackling your explanations of how you’re making game design decisions. As a game design student myself, it’s really cool to see how more experienced devs go about things like that.

[@MenkoDany]

What a neat idea! I could think of no other "[insert community] plays" with a similar idea! Excited to be featured in the game :D

[@anthonymichaels7358]

Love seeing the process and where you cut the technical info on caching comments in a service is just enough to let me know what you were thinking without spending too long on 'boring' content!

[@marcos.rodrigues]

Congrats on 100K! Your channel is such an inspiration for fellow game designers

[@Vexed-dev]

yep

[@SuperiorBenana]

I always get so pumped up to watch this man’s development process, it’s so much fun to listen to!

[@firedarth]

I just hope that you can play every challenge with an endless mode when you complete each day like the original version

[@mackeralface]

Being colourblind, the gold play button money and the standard car look the same colour, which makes it nearly impossible to tell them apart once the game really gets going. It might be worth considering switching the colour of the car to something else, perhaps a bright yellow taxi or something. Also, I’m spelling colour like that because I’m Canadian lol

[@lukemuscat]

Oh great call out! I'll try and make a change in the next day or two, and at least have their colour value be a tad different to help a little.

[@lukemuscat]

OK, I have added an option where you can cycle through 4 different colours for the money. Will be uploaded a little later today :)

[@insectophobia5446]

Enjoy your approach in video making and Sir Truck specifically. Thank you, it delivered me some fun hours.

[@zehalmeida]

That's gonna go wrong very fast, I love it! I had to stop playing Sir Truck because it is SO addictive and I see that as a win, truthfully. I mean, you created a game people literally can't stop playing? That's Tetris or Pac-Man levels of perfection, keep it up!

[@Spooky90097]

The creator of fruit ninjas job. Seems hes done it correctly.

[@iantaakalla8180]

I suppose as a person who knows how to make long-lasting mobile games fondly looked upon, this would be second nature to him.

[@Kogotom123]

Love your content! You deserved all the subscribers. It’s still crazy to think how you made of the best mobile games ever! Yeah this counts as a comment

[@TeqnifiiToo]

I’m surprised your views have been this low. To see how passionate you are about all of this is amazing and I’m glad that you choose to share these videos with all of us.

[@JonahSantiago-rs8uj]

I can’t wait to see where this channel goes from here - it’s clear that many great videos are in store!

[@MrLasditude]

Well, this is quite cool! Love the channel, always surprising. I was also away for a while, and only saw the video now, so getting to buff one of the later days :D

[@gabehorsley9236]

You produce some of the highest quality devlogs out there on this platform. Congrats on 100k!

[@mollemort8482]

I think it's incredible the amount of work you put into your projekts and how much attention to detail you have, even on smaller games. I think you taking the time and effort into doing something for the community shows your competence for making games, respect!

[@Flamsleburger]

The amount of effort you put into each video is just awesome. Can't wait for the next one!

[@VanillaSpooks]

Time to be a number addition to the cars wooooo 🎉 Also your videos are very entertaining, great work!

[@NephFunk]

Mr. Luke's games always give me the late 2000s-early 2010s vibes with their artstyles and game mechanics. Every time I'm looking at his games and the thought processes it always just gives me a familiar feeling like "Man, this feels *super* familiar, but I *know* it's new." I guess it's just that old nostalgic feeling from old flash games that we used to play on our computers back then. It's quite refreshing, especially with how games are nowadays. I guess the more things change, the more they stay the same, huh? Good stuff! Gonna go try the game now lole, hope I don't blow up in 5 seconds

[@wonderspaceHq]

Awesome video, it's a pretty fun watch and serves as a good reminder that building and coding your own projects can be fun and inclusive at the same time! It's indeed our much needed motivation as we embark on building our own chill productivity workspace too. Great work and looking forward to seeing how many enemies we can contribute 😈

[@RedWithTheLongYoutubeHandle]

Not only do you make game development fun to watch, you make the games look fun to play just as easily.

[@Aret24Official]

Wow, the 100k special is indeed special. The game looks really fun, can't wait to see how chaotic it will get.

Hi luke. Hope ur having a great day! I wanted to mention that I found u in one of the very old dev diaries of JJ while I was browsing yt. U certainly had a glowup since then

[@vvuorinen3]

Great idea. It is very insightful to hear your approach to game design as an expert.

[@MatoVidovic_]

All of this is crazy, Sir Truck is definutly going to end up as a full gape with all those updates you're doing x)

[@scarsofthenorth1205]

"9 days ago" Finally, on time for one of these things

[@jorenaldo]

This is a nice idea, also gets the community involved in the project and final product in a way. Might make it unplayable though, we'll see lol

[@nobrainfound]

Inreally like the idea of the different patreon or comunity tears having different types of cars. Also the comments could be integrated differently, like habing the option to give the enemies weapons too, depending on some arbitrary things like amount of likes the comment gets or something, and if it has too many dislikes it becomes an ally or something. I also like the idea of the "subscribers" you collect being different collors depending on the amount. Just like the gold, silver, diamond and other plates you get from toutube. I think that would be too hard to implement tho Thia is also one of the most creative ways of getting that engagement from youtube comments

[@gibranacastrejon6779]

Really excited to play and your future videos

[@Dan-km8je]

this guy is such a master of engagement bait lol. but like, ethical engagement bait. like name dropping jetpack joyride or fruit ninja in every vid. or the entire premise of this video. its expert level.

[@lukato8451]

Nice to see that you include the comunity in such a good way!

[@wchorski]

with a little bit of NodeJS knowledge and the Puppeteer package, you could automate all that user generated content

[@ah_dan6572]

Commenting to make your game harder, but also because all of your videos have been fantastic

I have an idea for feed the deep, a harpoon that you can use to fight a squid or something like that

congrats on 100k! can we get a video on the making of jetpack joyride?
