Ngl. The alien voicing is hilarious! The last guy was impressive. The polish and finishing touches he added made the game feel more completed. Maybe you could do a special double round development for a more complex style of game?
Those alien voices have a Hollow Knight feel- love it! We are definitely thinking of making a larger scale Pass the Game Challenge where devs have more time.
yea that’s something i’ve suggested a few times, once thru for basic features, and then once thru again for polish, bug fixes, and other smaller changes. also would be neat to see something where you have people making assets without knowing what the game is and then they need to be repurposed (only minor changes) to be used in the game
Thanks for inviting me Noa! It was a ton of fun to get to participate and play the game with all the other devs. Whoops for turning it into a PvP game lol
There is a really interesting strategic move in this game. If you are about to be destroyed by another player, the correct move is often to throw yourself at an NPC enemy att the last second to deny the other players your money.
I have an idea to expand on this project activity: A number of devs make a game without communication, but the game is cycled through the line of devs a second time. Meaning that each dev gets to work on the game 2 separate times Edit: Whoa! 100+ likes! Thanks everyone! Edit: and now at 300+ likes! Many thanks! First time a comment has gotten that many likes
Awesome video, absolutely love these game dev challenges, they always lead to such amazing results. One thing I’ve noticed is because Noa tends to be near the beginning of the challenge, often the games art style have his signature look to them. They look really cool, but it would be really interesting to see Noa be placed towards the end of a challenge, and then have to adapt his style to someone else’s art. Could be a nice challenge/put you out your comfort zone. Awesome work though, keep producing this series I absolutely love it!
I'm surprised no one thought of a power up shop that uses the money and a point leader-board system from killing the enemies but I did like a lot of what DevBanana added
Love this series! My fav game Dev series currently! I love finding these new Devs I hadn't watched before too! I would have loved a reaction of when people first play the game too, particularly since it started as a co-op and ended as a competitive game haha . Also, I just wanted to check, did everyone have 4 hours or 5 this time? (DevBanana had a graphic where it went from 5 hours down to 3.5 after he spent 1.5hrs on something)
I think it would be cool to do this concept while passing the game around for two or three cycles. Everyone would have more chances to modify the game and it would overall be more polished.
I love watching these videos by more knowledgeable game developers. I'm only at the beginning of my journey, doing the Full Time Game Dev course by Thomas Brush, and I think what you guys can do in 4 hours would take me 4 weeks.
Love these videos, just wish we got to see a slightly more finished game! Whether that be more time per turn, more participants, a second round of passing, progressively more time for each participant, or anything else. Feels like it always ends right as its getting to the best part.
You know Jason is legit because what he did was very simple and feasible and actually achievable in the allotted time. Often with these game dev challenges I highly doubt that what people did was within the time frame.
I love the little enemies you created initially. I don't have much skill when it comes to drawing, so I struggle when it comes to obtaining assets for a project. The enemies created sort of painted a picture in my mind of how to make a simple 2D model. I forget that I should break it all down into basic shapes lol.
This actually turned out great! I'd love to see a shop/buy mechanic, so players could swap cash for more power, so short term loss for longer term rewards.
This feels like a really good hangout game. One of those games you and your mates hop on for some last bit of fun before logging off and going to bed. I like the simplicity of it, you just go in and survive while trying to kill the other players. If it was more polished and had proper servers, I would absolutely love it. Nevertheless, this was a great episode!
You guys should do one where they can't remove anything only add to things (they can change the function slightly or appearance but the relative idea of the thing is the same)
I love this type of videos, also I want to become a game developer as well and maybe start my own company and UA-cam channel. I’m only 17 years old and still in school so I have time after school to learn about game development. Anyway great game and great video ❤
Hello Prod! I've been planning to re-RE-make Rumble In The Void again and really like your art style! I did your planet tutorial which encourages the viewer to use your art style for it. The game I plan to make will contain a lot of elements as in the one you made for THIS video. I'll be using Construct 2 as usual, and Photon for the first time, for the networking. I'd love any tips or advice for it, and if it's okay to use this video as inspiration, if I end up making said game?
5:50 ***dont say souls-like dont say souls-like dont say souls-like dont say souls-like dont say souls-like*** "oh ok, so they're making a souls-like now"
Happy new year! Tricky question, should we make a VR Pass the Game Challenge OR a board game Pass the Game challenge next?
Board Game 🤩
WOW both are ambitious but I'd love to see what this process looks like for a VR game!
Vr because then it would put up a bit more of a challenge and it would be more interesting
I want a vr game also happy new year and this is my favourite series pls keep it up love you!
Make a vr pass the game challenge next, also Happy New Year! Keep it up guys, I love your content
Personally i like it when all the devs who didn't communicate get to play the game at the end
Ngl. The alien voicing is hilarious!
The last guy was impressive. The polish and finishing touches he added made the game feel more completed.

good idea actually, i wanna see how they can manage that!
@@Blackthornprod Do you think you'd be able to gather enough people to make an actual gamejam out of this idea where people are randomly matched?
yea that’s something i’ve suggested a few times, once thru for basic features, and then once thru again for polish, bug fixes, and other smaller changes. also would be neat to see something where you have people making assets without knowing what the game is and then they need to be repurposed (only minor changes) to be used in the game

Was awesome taking part in this! It was really cool how fun the end game ended up being without communication!
Impressive indeed!
love ur vids banana man
@@Blackthornprod i have a question did you add like another power up and fix like bugs when finishing the game?
@DevBanana what app did you use to make the marimba + octave synth sound?
E
Thanks for inviting me Noa! It was a ton of fun to get to participate and play the game with all the other devs. Whoops for turning it into a PvP game lol
Haha, I think your editions shaped the game into what it was the most!
Nah they did you dirty at 2:40
@@Hietakissa yeaaa but who reads that anyways
HOLY SHIT. I used to be a Game Master for Vanguard. I knew you looked familiar Jason weimann. We've chatted and emailed a bunch lol. Crazy
Hey I know this dude
I think you’ve found a great recipe for a great series of videos as long as you keep it interesting and unique.
That's the plan!

@@lorenzo180596 oh ok. Just found their videos so I havent found that one yet
@@lorenzo180596 which vid was it?
@@lorenzo180596 I haven’t seen it
@@lorenzo180596 That was with 45 minute cycles, though. We haven't seen 4 hour dev cycles with this yet.

That's exactly what they did in the newest video... He literally changed the whole game and slapped his own art style on it 💀
Aged like milk 😭
you got what you wished for I guess...
This aged worse than my mom 💀
I'm surprised no one thought of a power up shop that uses the money and a point leader-board system from killing the enemies but I did like a lot of what DevBanana added
this challenge is getting more and more engaging and fun. love your content Noah and Liam ❤️
Thanks :) !!
E
I love that they all played it together at the end! Definitely adds a lot more to the video.
Very cool, was a lot of fun, just wish i'd been there for the gameplay! :)
3:26 I got flashbanged!
A cooperative game with out cooperation in its making is very ironic and I love it.
What about having a 10 minute final round where is passes between all of the devs so that any minor bugs/art will be fixed?
E

would ruin the surprise reaction at the end
Love this series! My fav game Dev series currently! I love finding these new Devs I hadn't watched before too!

It was awesome taking part in this, thank you for the opportunity!!👍 Love from Norway
I wish more UA-camrs did things like this they’re very entertaining and generally fun to watch
I LOVE the Boho art style. Very cool. And the tension in the game is very well done. GG, guys!
I think it is really cool how you respond to feedback and have the devs react to it!!!!!! Awesome video 👍
Loved being a part of this - the game turned out awesome 😎
Thanks for taking part man :)!
u were clearly too good at the game, feelsbad that they ganged up on u lol
Lol the first dev being unable to do anything past making the multiplayer work is so relatable

Love it when you upload. Not many devs upload that often. Thanks noah
Wow I was just binging your previous devjam vids! This is a great channel and I’m stressed I haven’t found it before.
Welcome aboard!
I really love how these games turn out each time. It's incredible how people still kinda work together without communicating
You know Jason is legit because what he did was very simple and feasible and actually achievable in the allotted time. Often with these game dev challenges I highly doubt that what people did was within the time frame.
"That worked pretty well and I beat myself". Now read it again
Was looking for this comment
I love the little enemies you created initially. I don't have much skill when it comes to drawing, so I struggle when it comes to obtaining assets for a project. The enemies created sort of painted a picture in my mind of how to make a simple 2D model. I forget that I should break it all down into basic shapes lol.
This was so fun to watch, imagine what could have happened with more time and communication :O
This actually turned out great! I'd love to see a shop/buy mechanic, so players could swap cash for more power, so short term loss for longer term rewards.
I wish there was a series where you would revisit these games and continue to work on them
love this series blackthorn please make more like this they are very entertaining
the fireplace computer background is a great touch lol

This channel is so underrated. I love watching these videos. Keep it up
thank you for your relentless effort to educate and entertain!
It’s nice seeing the devs improve and try to stay with one style rather than removing sections
I am so glad you ran with this series, am a bid fan and its good no matter the number of evelopers
Here are my predictions for the video: there will be a centipede
I'm impressed anyone can make a functioning multiplayer game so quickly, let alone one that works well enough to have fun in!
That was awesome! Great work all very fun
Love Jason, glad to see him here
Blackthornprod: without communication
Blackthornprod: adds ingame chat
Liam has been throwing hands wtf is up with his knuckles lol. Hope you won bro.
Why do I feel like he is slowly forming a game studio with these videos
These videos are exceedingly entertaining. Really great job
You guys killed it! I love seeing Jason on these, keep him in them!
the guy literally added nothing despite being the multiplayer guru
@@kingbling7571 lol
This is awesome, does each dev also edit their own video sections?
I noticed that everyone seems to have a different style of their video
yep :)
Such a cool energy here and so much fun !!!
this is so cool, i would love to take part sometime!
2:53 "Your contribution was a bug."
The moment he mentioned how he wanted it to be a cooperative experience I just knew the next developer was going to completely remove that aspect.
9:55 you did devbanana great work
This trend is way too fun to watch I can't lie
6:42 Mfer has more grease in his hair than the floor of a McDonald’s kitchen 💀💀💀
Such a fun idea! Especially the fact you can all play it together! :D
Hope you all have a great 2023!
I’m loving watching these
1:47 bruh whyyyyyyyyy SPACE SHIPS
(They look great)
when RugBug took the wheel I started feeling massive amounts of pain
Keep this up love these challenges
This was really cool. Everyone did such a great job!😁
You guys should do one where they can't remove anything only add to things (they can change the function slightly or appearance but the relative idea of the thing is the same)
I just discovered your series and dropped a vid after I finished the playlist
I am loving this series!
I think you should increase the hours or something for bug fixing and polishing. This game looks so cool
"so we got together and made a circa-2000 cliché flash shooter."
Nice video as always, cheers
8:00 Great challenge, but didn't everyone get 4 hours ?
I love this concept, and I love Liam's art style, but I would also love to see some new art
'I added a timer, now for the last thing I'm adding I could only get halfway'
Imagine how good of a game they could make if they work together and communicate
Great way to end the year guys!
Jason: "And I beat myself" 💀
Love the series!
heppy new year game devs!
I love this type of videos, also I want to become a game developer as well and maybe start my own company and UA-cam channel. I’m only 17 years old and still in school so I have time after school to learn about game development. Anyway great game and great video ❤

Because there is no place to browse open lobbys please create ones with the name as the number '1' or letter 'a' so that we can actually play
everytime liam has a revolutionary idea its a tower defense something something LOL
Man I love this video series, as a game dev myself I would love to try this but my english is not good and I don't use Unity that much.
this game actually has potential
They all have, these dev challenges come out with some badass games.
Ticking sound: Exists
Me: TF2 thing go brrrr
5:50 ***dont say souls-like dont say souls-like dont say souls-like dont say souls-like dont say souls-like***
"oh ok, so they're making a souls-like now"
crazy that these games are still better than people whove had communication
I think it would be cool if the winner got extra time at the end to work on the game
You guys have inspired me to start creating my own game.
These series are hilarious. VR next please! After that board game :)
can you please do a video more detailed or maybe a playlist about photon multiplayer
This game needs a shop players can access between rounds to spend their money in
7:09 😳
🥵
The game looks fabulous
Each projectile has there own unique colour (neon or high saturated)
if Black thorn prod only male these devs video I will watch them all. Love this series.
That alien language 😂it's the best
These videos are so cool!
I think rather than a competition it would have been more entertaining for a reaction/interview style ending part
