Rec Room: The Best Way to Kill a Game [BEHIND THE SCENES]
This is just a quick little video going over how I made my most recent video about Rec Room, notably the intro/outro animations. A lot of people wanted to know how I made them according to quite a few of the comments on the original video and also a community post I made recently, so here I do just that!

Rec Room: The Best Way to Kill a Game
Переглядів 165 тис.Місяць тому
A bad game with an awful community is a recipe for disaster. Video starts at 1:22:40. In all seriousness, this is actually a pretty important video to me that I've been wanting to make for nearly 2 years now. Over the past several years, Rec Room has continued to make awful decisions for the game that only hurt it and its community. For those unaware, Rec Room is a free-to-play VR social game w...
The New GMTK Deadline SUCKS (in my opinion)
Переглядів 4414 місяці тому
Here’s a little video featuring me venting about the new time limit/deadline for the GMTK Game Jam 2024 (which was originally 48 hours, but is now 96 hours.) I feel like that small time limit was what made GMTK so fun and memorable as an experience. It also set itself apart from others game jams like the Brackey’s Game Jams and the Wowie! Game Jams. If you don't know, a game jam is essentially ...

Watch me go insane as i try to learn Unreal Engine 5 because of the Unity runtime fee :D if you don’t know, back in september of 2023 Unity (the game engine) announced that they would be changing their pricing model so you would have to pay a fee for every time someone installs their game. this raised many questions about reinstalls, piracy, and privacy throughout the game dev community. and as...

    I loved this game, first played in early 2020, it got me out of bed in the morning. I tried to tell anyone I could how fun it was. Seeing where this game has gone truly breaks my heart, it’s been so long now that I’ve entirely abandoned the game and can confidently say, I’m not coming back.

    For the whole of the last year of weeklies, I didn't have 7 of them. 7/52 I didn't have. This is why I didn't do them myself. I ended up asking people if they had the skin or not. If they didn't and wanted them we would work on them.

    I remember logging onto Rec Room, seeing what rooms were hot, checking the updates, and best of all, checking the skin you got for the challenge. Come back in a few years to find all the hot rooms be garbage, every update removing more than the last, and worst of all, they removed my precious challenge. Rec Room has become what it never should have. A greedy business obsessed with money over their player base.

    Scary thing is, a ton of the criticisms made in this video could also be applied to Roblox. From the UGC being awful, to them straying from the needs of their community and instead riding off the backs of their investors, to even your point as to how Rec Room is a game that left a huge impact on you, just like how Roblox has left a huge impact on me. Seriously, Roblox is my most played game of all time, right next to Garry's Mod, which in it of itself I had discovered from playing games like Half-Life 2, and Portal. And same goes with Rec Room. I cannot deny how much fun I had playing it for the first time, now it's completely stripped of it's identity, a rotten, soulless husk of it's former self.

    Heya, Im AtlasInHell but formerly WonderBoy/WonderSauce/Wonder. This game was my heart and soul when i joined the game. I poured my heart out into every aspect i possibly could. Building, friends, trading inventions, golden trophy speedrunning, sword fighting tournaments, rock climbing. I joined a few months before you did, and I quit early at the start of this year. I pop on every now and than but the game hasnt gotten better. I personally just wanted to add on (im not far into the video so this might be mentioned later) i think recroom studio is horrible. I think the whole concept of the makerpen being accessible to everyone was amazing and what truely made the charm for building. Your imagination was truely the limit and everything was possible with the right practice. Recroom studio makes practicing the makerpen useless. Recroom studio makes years of dedication worthless. Recroom studio is unfair.

    That ending scene hit me hard, made me realize all the memories that I’ve made during the year long period i played it with friends who i no longer talk to due to outside occurrences. It’s very well animated, and i like how that last little paragraph made me think back on the memories that have (apparently) been spoiled. Of course, I’m basing this off of other comments, but that friend group I played rec room with has already been dissolved, so i can’t get that stuff back

    Seeing all my old friends in the footage made my heart get CRUSHED I was friends with a lot of prominent creators in Rec Room. Some of which included Azrael, BDSSwagMuffin, FoxGaming and more I actually met BDSswagmuffin ( the person at 52:23 ) in his very first time in the game and took him around some of the originals, we then hanged out in some of his private rooms he was creating and messed around by taking photos of him while afk and just generally having a good time. I was appalled when I came back to Rec Room to see what it had become, the collabs, the full body's, the UGC, the prices and the overall loss of it's creative vision. I met so many wonderful people in that game and it's such a shame to see all of that get ripped away. -Lord of Cinder

    I loved this game for a long time. I built rooms, and communities with awesome people. The original vision was godlike. Truly once in a lifetime experience. Sadly, they just don't care about their game theyre just like every garbage shill company that comes out of seattle. All they care about is money. They've betrayed our trust too many times. They never listen to their community. They just don't care. It was fun while it lasted, I'll always remember this game fondly, but I'll always hate what it became.

      Dude you know what’s crazy? Is that that low taper fade, like meme, dude it is still massive. Yeah. MASSIVE. I mean I’m seeing new ones that I’ve never seen before that have millions of likes and views, still, that are popping up all over the place. You know what else is crazy? Like how, all the other videos he’s made since, I’ve seen a couple others show up on my for your page, you would think they would all be doing better than they are. You said there have been a couple that have been doing great. No they’re all doing massive. It’s just- no, there’s a few that aren’t and you’re just like how, how can a guy get that viral for this many weeks, and not just be famous forever. You know what I mean? I mean he’s already a good artist, I love his music and he’s dropping a new album, I think actually it’s already out, gotta check it out. So at the end of 2023 there was a bunch of memes going around that were the memes of the month throughout the year, right, and I think that for the memes of 2024 the low taper fade is 100% going to be the meme of January this year.
