Please remember this good feeling when you feel bad, and remember you will feel good things again. I know it's easy to forget so let's try our best together!
The comments talking shit or just being assholes are either bots or have nothing better to do, good on you for not letting it get you down. I'll be awaiting the next video to see what you what you make.
Thank you for sticking with youtube I hope you can enjoy content creation again, just make sure to value your mental health and happiness first an foremost
Its very refreshing to see 1 quality creator I LOVE genuinely compliment another that's on the other end of the UA-cam spectrum, thank you TierZoo and thank you Garbaj both for being good people and channels
Yo! I never could have guessed that TierZoo also watches Garbaj. That's wild to me that a youtuber I watch also watches one of my favorite youtube channels.
Unexpected, but very cool appearance of TierZoo. Agree with it, I do enjoy game development so I am glad to hear Garbaj will not quit and is doing what he enjoys.
I love the transparency you have about mental health in this video. I always enjoyed your genuineness and well thought out perspectives in your videos, and that's on full display here. Looking forward to seeing more videos from you, regardless of what they're about.
Under your username are these words: "460K subscribers". All of these are people who like your content. A lot of people like your content. Good on you for finding out what *you* want to create. It's always good to see someone creating content they enjoy and or enthusiastic about making. Pewdiepie realized he didn't want to make over the top character videos and instead does what he likes doing. Guess what? People liked that even more, probably because it felt genuine. Here's to the new Garbaj, may the fates be in your favor.
That part about pewdiepie is a thing people often forget: many think that you have to be x, and do y, to be popular and succesful. But then you're not original and possibly not genuine and it won't be as interesting. But most importantly, you won't enjoy it as much yourself. Just be yourself, the weirder the better.
I'm not even a game dev but I love to watch your videos because you explain things in such a clear way and it's always very interesting. I'm very very glad you're still here. This channel really is great.
Mad respect to you for building up the courage to talk about this. I wish you all the best and good luck with whatever you decide to go with.. I'm looking forward to see it.
Girl, each and every one of your videos answers every question I've ever had or will have! They make me think and also help me articulate things I've been thinking of for years! Everything you've created; everything you've done has been amazing and that's because of *you*!! So I WILL be here, expecting what *you* want to do, and what *you* want to share with the world. Thank you
I was really looking forward to your FPS game and got a little disappointed when you said you were dropping the project. But, recently I tried getting into game development and tried making a little game for a project, and now I understand your problems. It's fun to do what you love , but when it feels like a chore at one point, you should ask yourself whether you want to continue or not. And that's a tough decision you have to make, but it's ultimately for the good. Garbaj, do what you like. Create content that you want to create. That'll be more fun for us too. We are with you man.
It's absolute madness, I'm trying to make a 2D fantasy RPG game for mobile and PC with summary, you are a soul brought by a being of endless madness to live in the magical fantasy world, you start as a child while adventuring in this world, you grow up, every time you die you start from scratch and are able to buy soul talents that make you increasingly stronger, the game has many plots and endings, and has great number of enemies and different ways of interacting with the story, the art of the game is very based in comics the difficulty level you can decide in the world scenario, the harder it is, the more the world seems like hell As you play more, the game starts to glitch and becomes more corrupted because this game is so complex and difficult, I couldn't do it completely, I'm only working on the first chapter 1, each chapter has its own world with its own system, the first one will take hundreds of hours to finish I still want to do a draft of the work and improve my talking and art, before starting a dev channel of it
@@darkpain2452 I recommend starting VERY small. If you get comfortable programming small games you will have a much easier time with larger projects. Scope-creep is the reason most indie games fail and I don't recommend making your dream game as your first project since you will inevitably be disappointed.
From what I can tell from watching the suffering of many artists, "it's fun until it becomes hard", and "it becomes fun again once it all becomes easy again".
I never knew how much I missed this channel. I watch a lot of youtube and clicking through to see what there is and a new Garbaj video always made my day. Keep going!
No one is here for one specific type of video , structured in a certain way containing one type of content , we are here for you and whatever videos you want to post .
I gotta admit,, hearing your laidback, chill and whilesome style of vids and overall personality is a highlight after a long day at work. Keep up the good work homie, nothing but luv
thanks for opening up about this, it's sometimes not easy putting yourself first and those feelings are valid but it seems like you're on the right track. Whatever you decide to do/make, we'll support you.
@@Ash_Cafe man, imagine psychiatrist said "well, kys then" as a JOKE? garbaj needs our support in doing what HE ACTUALLY WANTS, not what you hope for. just do not hope Booty blasting V2 bcuz you could be disappointed, and community disappointment is a big thing to our guy. am i overprotective to a random youtuber who i enjoy watching, or is it a reasonable reaction?
to hell with optimising ur content for the algorithm, i love unique content thats made from passion rather than desire for clout, keep doing u bro, its what were here for
I really like your videos. Even if they aren't useful for me directly as guides or instructions, they often give food for my brain to think about something I haven't thought about previously. Thanks for that and keep doing whatever you think is good.
When I first discovered your channel I thought 'look at this guy, I think he'll fill a niche in my feed' and I swear I almost never missed one of your videos I'm a sales guy so let me throw some selling points for you 1. You have a very pleasing voice - No homo 2. You are very clear and concise which compared to 45min videos out there that say nothing, this is worth gold 3. You make game dev seem interesting even if it's such a hard topic 4. For some reason I and over 460 thousand people feel you as a genuine guy, working a 9-5 but sharing cool facts, being ambitious and I respect that I could definitely go on but let me just tell you I did look up your channel a couple times when I didn't see you upload any videos. You have a huge base, potential, brand, niche, voice, skill, knowledge, and most of all, swag. Yeah I'm that old, bite me Keep it up Garbaj, rooting the hell out of you here.
I literally showed someone your whole channel and binge watched a ton of old videos with them again like 3 hours before you posted this, I'm glad you decided on making what YOU want!!!!
Cheers to you, for coming to this realization and seeing the light that was always there. You are stronger than you know and in your sharing your struggles you are also helping others that have been consumed by the crippling self doubt. I'm looking forward to all the exciting stuff you want to share with us.
I'm so glad you decided not to give up. One of my best friends and I used watch your dev logs at work and it'd be a shame to never have that chance again.
Do what YOU enjoy! Thats the most important part in being a content creator in my eyes, enjoying and loving what you make, the effort and care shows in the video for sure! Glad to be apart of this awesome channel and community, equally as glad that it’s gonna be around longer 💜
Love your videos currently. Probably love them more from now on as your passion will show even bigger. Keep it up. Ive made sure i get notifications for your videos so even if the algorithm sucks, ill still get the good content
I found you through this video, and subbed through this video. Theres something super enjoyable about listening to you, and I cant wait to binge this channel whilst you work on awesome new videos!
Really happy to (honestly, finally) watch this - much love Garbaj! You worked like 10 horses, high quality content, but I felt it too. I cannot wait to see what you're going to do around the corner!
Jesus christ, this is the first time the algorithm actually gave me what I actually wanted to hear for this weekend. As an aspiring clipper for other streamers, thank you for saying this.
Dude I love the stuff you make. You could upload a video dissecting literally anything and I'd be there to watch. The way you break things down and just critically think is a nice break, I want you to make whatever you want, I am here for the ride. You gotta enjoy what you do, let your own curiosity carry you to new places and make whatever you find interesting.
Damn man I really enjoy your videos and I try to watch your new stuff as soon as theyre out, hearing that you think people dislike your content kinda broke my heart a little cause I love your vids and a lot of other folks too. I hope for the best to you and that you keep on posting content you enjoy
Hey Garbaj, don't fall into the trap man. Every video that you made attracts the same type of person/what the person wants to watch. If you make some new content you always have people who are going to be angry/not happy. Just do you, and people will follow (old ones will leave and new ones will come) :) Happy developing!
I found your content a while back while looking at shorts. I really enjoyed the stuff about game development especially about your own game and your own adventure learning all that crazy stuff. Something I have learned in life is that if I upset someone the fault lies with them. I always like to think that a reasonable adult should never get upset by something like videos about games on the internet. If you do you are a child and need to grow up. Keep up the awesome content and know that your community has missed you. We look forward to the future of your channel. Best of luck to you bud.
I’m so happy I got to see this. You’ve grown so much from your rut and seeing you climb out of it is so inspiring. You’ve been a teacher in such a huge chunk of my artistic journey and seeing you push through means the world to me and many others 💙✨
hell yeah brother, continue to make game development videos. i love watching them, doesn't matter what it is i binge em!! might need to catch your streams too. continue the awesome work you've been doing!!
I'm constantly using your videos as references when I try new stuff. I've learned a lot from you. You give more than what you take. I hope you are happy with what you choose to make in the future
when this video came up in my recommended I just thought it was some random youtube recommendation. Once you started talking it came back to me right away. I loved watching your videos and i cant wait to see what you do next.
Garbaj, I for one, am very happy you made this particular video, for the simple reason that it showed up in my youtube feed today. I haven't seen a video from you in months even though I'm sub'd and have your notifications turned on. So, I can begin browsing your videos that I've been missing for quite some time now!!
"I'm going to make videos that -I- want to create" I've been watching and enjoying your videos for a good while, but this right here made me subscribe. It resonates with me so much. I'm excited to see what you make! I'm in the process of writing a novel, and your conviction in doing what -you- want to do in your creative processes put wind in my sails for me to do the same.
i'm really happy that you've decided to keep making content! i really liked your videos because they just aren't what you normally see online. i liked how it almost felt like you were inviting the viewer to sit down and think or talk about interesting video game things. i had also liked how approachable you make each subject feel, often focusing down on maybe one or two specific details and how they might effect the game overall. but even if all that goes away, i still want to see what you're doing. you've opened up my eyes to a lot of ideas about video game design, and it seems like if you keep doing what you want to i'll get to learn even more!
it has to be said that this kind of content is really cool, it’s unique and enjoyable, you won’t find it anywhere else, the algorithm might not like it, but i personally am a fan of your content creation style, keep at it
Don't quit, you must realize this channel wont go anywhere, take as many breaks as you want to. Ive had my doubts as well feeling worthless but no one hates you, the algorithm will play tricks on your brain but your fans care. Keep making the stuff you want to make on your own time and take many breaks. I love your content btw, I was making my own graphics engine the other day and feeling really down on myself for only making a cube, but then I saw your video and it made me feel a lot better knowing how hard it is. Game dev is hard and so is being a UA-camr. Keep making fun stuff.
actually anything you make, I love to watch. Not trying to get parasocial, but your videos feel like hearing a passionate friend chat about cool stuff or interesting stuff. Love that you didn't quit!
Dude, I just like hearing how you explain stuff, your sincerity and genuineness, whatever you make I'm happy to see! I subbed for YOU, not a specific kind of content (tho I did really love when you made example vids like you did with walk animations and terrain, I also love all the other stuff you do). Also, dark thoughts eating at you? Yeah, dealt with that all my life, as a very high-operating autistic it can get rough, so I'm right there with you! The important choice to make is the one you just made: do what you love, not what you think others will value you for. I recently just made that decision about a year back, and life is way better for me for it. Another friend of mine (also ASD funnily enough) also made that choice in the last month, and already he's seeing an improvement... Do what you love, and good people will love you and what you do for it. The only persons happiness that truly matters here is YOURS, and I'm stoked to support you in whatever that looks like moving forward. Chin up friend! You made the best choice you EVER could this day! 🍻
I've really liked pretty much every dang video you've put out! I like the game analysis and perspective videos, and I especially like the behind the scenes game videos. Follow your gut and make the videos that make you happy! ♥
Hello Garbaj! just wanted to say that i have been subscribed to your channel for a long time and always loved watching your videos, the progress you've made on your game and the topics you've brought for discussion. Keep doing what you really want to do! Because that's what gives your videos personality and makes them shine! :)
Your content has always been motivating and enlightening. It's made me think about game dev differently and have more appreicatiation for the games I play. And I am always excited to see when you put out new videos. Your videos are really meaningful. I hope you find stability, health, and happiness in the videos you want to make.
I ADORE your videos. You have changed the way I look at game design, and you give solid opinions related to the same topic. I recently began working on my own game and sculpting concepts better using your tips, and I thank you for that!
garbaj you are a big motivator for me to keep working on my own game. i really enjoy your content and your voice is very chill. please don't stop making content especially when you enjoy it.
I actually love to tune in whenever you upload a video, they are always very enlightening and interesting, even if they arent technical or gamedev related. I appreciate and Value your opinion and im sure many other people do, We are subscribed to watch your content, whenever it comes it and whatever you choose it to be, So keep up the good work!
In this stream of organized content, I am always happy to see the Random thought, no artificial prolonging, straight to the point videos you bring to the table
I'm so sorry to hear those things man :( But I understand you since I have had these feelings more than once and it is really ruining the person. I'm glad you found a way out of the bad feelings, and I support that you should be doing what you like, not what you are forced. I love your channel and content, watching your videos is always nice. Take care of yourself, and don't quit! Keep up the good work!
I always found that it makes myself feel better when I record myself thinking. I think you have a nice voice I just tune in every so often to hear it and learn a little about games and nerd stuff :D
BRAVO SIR - The world will reward your sticking to your passion. The biggest strength you have is your individuality and what YOU have to bring to the table, so just do you and trust the process. So glad to have to back Garbaj. And thank you for your vulnerability and role-modelling that speaking about these types of "mental demons" is usually one of the best ways to deal with them. Big love
Hey Garbaj, your videos are great and I always respect your fresh takes on game design. You've inspired me to keep going with my game dev journey, and yours is a channel I keep coming back to. Thanks for sticking around!
Thanks for being open about this. I know it's a lot more difficult to talk honestly about these feelings than it is to just disappear from an online space. I look forward to seeing you do what makes you happy.
It makes me so happy to see a lot of my favorite content creators finally realizing they can make what they want and saying I’m doing what makes me happy
Thank you everyone, you've given me hope
Please remember this good feeling when you feel bad, and remember you will feel good things again. I know it's easy to forget so let's try our best together!
You're not hated, nor are you alone. Stay Strong
Lets goooooooooooo!
We are with you.❤❤❤
The comments talking shit or just being assholes are either bots or have nothing better to do, good on you for not letting it get you down. I'll be awaiting the next video to see what you what you make.
Thank you for sticking with youtube I hope you can enjoy content creation again, just make sure to value your mental health and happiness first an foremost

Glad you're not giving up! Always loved starting the work day with "hey everyone garbaj here". Keep crushing it fam
Its very refreshing to see 1 quality creator I LOVE genuinely compliment another that's on the other end of the UA-cam spectrum, thank you TierZoo and thank you Garbaj both for being good people and channels
Hi TeirZoo. We all love Garbaj
Yo! I never could have guessed that TierZoo also watches Garbaj. That's wild to me that a youtuber I watch also watches one of my favorite youtube channels.
Unexpected, but very cool appearance of TierZoo. Agree with it, I do enjoy game development so I am glad to hear Garbaj will not quit and is doing what he enjoys.
Holy shit TierZoo and Garbaj are two of my favorites *chefs kiss*
I love the transparency you have about mental health in this video. I always enjoyed your genuineness and well thought out perspectives in your videos, and that's on full display here. Looking forward to seeing more videos from you, regardless of what they're about.
do NOT quit
Do or do not... there is NO QUIT!
That kinda sounds like a threat tbh lol
That's what he isn't gonna do, what's the point of this comment?
I can read the video title myself
@@TeJoeTheHoe encouragement
@@Inveestigator it does NOT sound like a threat
The fact that you uploaded a video alone made my day. Hope you the best Garbaj!
bro hit the "never back town never what?"
Are you kidding? All of the stuff you make is great! Your educational videos, your devlogs, your analysis videos. You're actually great at this stuff!
Under your username are these words: "460K subscribers".
All of these are people who like your content. A lot of people like your content.
Good on you for finding out what *you* want to create. It's always good to see someone creating content they enjoy and or enthusiastic about making.
Pewdiepie realized he didn't want to make over the top character videos and instead does what he likes doing. Guess what? People liked that even more, probably because it felt genuine.
Here's to the new Garbaj, may the fates be in your favor.
mental illness
460k is nothing to scoff at. That's the equivalent of a pretty big town full of people.
@@Count_Goatenberg True. This is more or less the amount of people living in Long Beach California. Yeah that is a pretty big city
That part about pewdiepie is a thing people often forget: many think that you have to be x, and do y, to be popular and succesful. But then you're not original and possibly not genuine and it won't be as interesting. But most importantly, you won't enjoy it as much yourself.
Just be yourself, the weirder the better.
and still he felt it was necessary to delete my comment to this thread. Garbaj has a self-esteem issue.
I'm not even a game dev but I love to watch your videos because you explain things in such a clear way and it's always very interesting. I'm very very glad you're still here. This channel really is great.
Same..
Yeah they’re some great lil game dev vids

It's absolute madness, I'm trying to make a 2D fantasy RPG game for mobile and PC
with summary, you are a soul brought by a being of endless madness to live in the magical fantasy world, you start as a child while adventuring in this world, you grow up, every time you die you start from scratch and are able to buy soul talents that make you increasingly stronger, the game has many plots and endings, and has great number of enemies and different ways of interacting with the story, the art of the game is very based in comics
the difficulty level you can decide in the world scenario, the harder it is, the more the world seems like hell
As you play more, the game starts to glitch and becomes more corrupted
because this game is so complex and difficult, I couldn't do it completely, I'm only working on the first chapter 1, each chapter has its own world with its own system, the first one will take hundreds of hours to finish
I still want to do a draft of the work and improve my talking and art, before starting a dev channel of it

Garbaj, I for one, am very happy you made this particular video, for the simple reason that it showed up in my youtube feed today. I haven't seen a video from you in months even though I'm sub'd and have your notifications turned on. So, I can begin browsing your videos that I've been missing for quite some time now!!
"I'm going to make videos that -I- want to create" I've been watching and enjoying your videos for a good while, but this right here made me subscribe. It resonates with me so much. I'm excited to see what you make! I'm in the process of writing a novel, and your conviction in doing what -you- want to do in your creative processes put wind in my sails for me to do the same.
i'm really happy that you've decided to keep making content! i really liked your videos because they just aren't what you normally see online. i liked how it almost felt like you were inviting the viewer to sit down and think or talk about interesting video game things. i had also liked how approachable you make each subject feel, often focusing down on maybe one or two specific details and how they might effect the game overall.
but even if all that goes away, i still want to see what you're doing. you've opened up my eyes to a lot of ideas about video game design, and it seems like if you keep doing what you want to i'll get to learn even more!
I'm glad you're sticking around. Really excited to see what you're most passionate about.
Great call man, you can't lose if live outside their game. Your videos have always been baller, keen to see more 🔥
it has to be said that this kind of content is really cool, it’s unique and enjoyable, you won’t find it anywhere else, the algorithm might not like it, but i personally am a fan of your content creation style, keep at it
Good for you bro. I like your content and your move here shows integrity toward yourself
Don't quit, you must realize this channel wont go anywhere, take as many breaks as you want to. Ive had my doubts as well feeling worthless but no one hates you, the algorithm will play tricks on your brain but your fans care. Keep making the stuff you want to make on your own time and take many breaks. I love your content btw, I was making my own graphics engine the other day and feeling really down on myself for only making a cube, but then I saw your video and it made me feel a lot better knowing how hard it is. Game dev is hard and so is being a UA-camr. Keep making fun stuff.
watching your content made me enjoy your content simply for the fact that it was YOURS. Very excited to see what you upload next
actually anything you make, I love to watch. Not trying to get parasocial, but your videos feel like hearing a passionate friend chat about cool stuff or interesting stuff. Love that you didn't quit!
Dude, I just like hearing how you explain stuff, your sincerity and genuineness, whatever you make I'm happy to see! I subbed for YOU, not a specific kind of content (tho I did really love when you made example vids like you did with walk animations and terrain, I also love all the other stuff you do).
Also, dark thoughts eating at you? Yeah, dealt with that all my life, as a very high-operating autistic it can get rough, so I'm right there with you! The important choice to make is the one you just made: do what you love, not what you think others will value you for. I recently just made that decision about a year back, and life is way better for me for it. Another friend of mine (also ASD funnily enough) also made that choice in the last month, and already he's seeing an improvement...
Do what you love, and good people will love you and what you do for it. The only persons happiness that truly matters here is YOURS, and I'm stoked to support you in whatever that looks like moving forward. Chin up friend! You made the best choice you EVER could this day! 🍻
I've really liked pretty much every dang video you've put out! I like the game analysis and perspective videos, and I especially like the behind the scenes game videos. Follow your gut and make the videos that make you happy! ♥

Best dev channel in my opinion, keep doing what you want to do, it's a banger
I'm so sorry to hear those things man :( But I understand you since I have had these feelings more than once and it is really ruining the person. I'm glad you found a way out of the bad feelings, and I support that you should be doing what you like, not what you are forced. I love your channel and content, watching your videos is always nice. Take care of yourself, and don't quit! Keep up the good work!
I'm glad you've made piece with yourself on this, the struggle is real. Best of luck, excited to see what you make =)
I always found that it makes myself feel better when I record myself thinking. I think you have a nice voice I just tune in every so often to hear it and learn a little about games and nerd stuff :D
Do not quit, I like your videos you inspire me to make my own so even if everyone stops watching you I will watch you.
bro just your vibe and voice was enough for me to like your vids
BRAVO SIR - The world will reward your sticking to your passion. The biggest strength you have is your individuality and what YOU have to bring to the table, so just do you and trust the process. So glad to have to back Garbaj. And thank you for your vulnerability and role-modelling that speaking about these types of "mental demons" is usually one of the best ways to deal with them. Big love
To surrender is the worst kind of defeat. The one you admit
Hey Garbaj, your videos are great and I always respect your fresh takes on game design. You've inspired me to keep going with my game dev journey, and yours is a channel I keep coming back to. Thanks for sticking around!
Thanks for being open about this. I know it's a lot more difficult to talk honestly about these feelings than it is to just disappear from an online space.
I look forward to seeing you do what makes you happy.
It makes me so happy to see a lot of my favorite content creators finally realizing they can make what they want and saying I’m doing what makes me happy
you are one of the few youtubers i love to watch your videos are educative and fun
