    Thank you so much for covering our little corner of the internet. It's been a really fun ride, and we're still making new breakthroughs til this day! I hope some day you revisit us, especially with covering all of the feats by NDP, who has singlehandedly guided us alongside the rest of the Cobra Tool Devs, for the extremely important work he has done. Thank you again for doing this again, we all appreciate it!

    Hello! I’m Havok1199 (with my real life username) and I wanted to say thank you for including me in this amazing adventure of making Planet Zoo the ultimate successor of Zoo Tycoon 2 when it comes to modding. Furthermore, you even put in the thumbnail my first new species project ever, the African leopard.
    I really can’t say how much I appreciate your hard work and dedication in making this video, which sums up the history of the modding community of a videogame, which reached over 1000 mods in 2 years, including portraying me as one of the “main characters” of this adventure.
    I hope we’ll see more about this game and what will eventually come next for it.
    Greetings from Italy!

    Heya, LilyValley from the ZT2 modding community. I appreciate your feature on the game! I can't help but favor ZT2 over Planet Zoo but... honestly I think it's because it has more moddability. I haven't made the jump to Planet Zoo since I love animating and seeing as those aren't a possibility right now I feel inclined to stick with an oldie-but-goodie PC game that holds a unique place in my world.

    Really good video, seeing the early times of modding in the genera makes one realize how far we've come.

    I hope someone at Frontier Developments sees this and that they appreciate how important their work is to the sim community.

    Hi! SibCDC here! Awesome video, can't believe the modding community has come this far. I still remember learning how to code for the first time by reading NDP's PDF tutorial, more than a year later and I've got more than 40 Planet Zoo mods on my name and made a lot of new friends. Let's hope we can continue finding new ways to improve and innovate modding for Planet Zoo, so that next year we'll have a new retrospective to look forward to.

    Hey ReviewGen, love the video! I also was wondering where your Planet Zoo career mode playthrough went, I really enjoyed watching that!

      Hey, they are still available on the channel but are unlisted, you can find them in the playlists section. Also there is an archive of livestreams channel on the discord with direct links to all those videos. Regards.

    Hey dude, I've seen your videos on jurassic world evolution 1-2, I would love if you can make more of them, showing what you think of the game's progress and what could be added in the future.

      Some texture mods were made, we could import their models, but by the time people started caring, thememaker's toolkit was released and there wasn't really a point in trying
