Rhiowmeow Morning Thor, random thought for you - if ADHD likes feedback, and tutorials give feedback by giving a finished "project", could it be that occasionally dropping in a tutorial during the learning process not to get unstuck but to help learn might help ADHD learners more? As someone who works in Learning and Development, I love gamifying learning, but the rest of the world hasn't caught up so I'm trying to find the middle ground. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=6h54m11s

sugarfreesyrup123 Hey thanks all for helping me in the chat. Hey thor, super big role model. Im a junior at uni as CS, and I know up to LinkedLists, BinaryTrees, and GUIs and whatnot. I am very worried on getting hired after college, so what would be some recommendations for someone getting out there? Do you think I should switch majors as I already have some hours that are transferrable? I am so lost please help. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=6h59m9s

#

Hoofster Hey Thor! I spend several hours a week in Talespire making maps for my weekly D&D campaign. Do you think it'd be worth streaming my work and do you think it'd be worth streaming under the Game Dev tag? Thanks for the positivity in the world. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h4m24s

#

NoctumAeternus Hi Thor! Started watching stream after your shorts infiltrated my youtube reels. Any chance you'd be okay with someone putting Gort the Destroyer as an NPC in their game? Asking for a friend. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h5m16s

#

ZeldaTakahiro Hey Thor, Hope your day is going well, What advice would you give for looking for jobs in the game industry that are just for over the summer, Im limited to Unreal Blueprints and 3D Prop Art,, I just need it for only the summer so i can focus on a college course after but also build up some money for independence soon. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h8m5s

RoyEltham yarrCheer500 I'm going to sleep now, but chat don't let Thor win on the queue. Thor, if you succeed in destroying the queue, then the mods will get all the bread they want, but you will never know. 777777777777777777777777777777777 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h11m28s

pippythedeadly yarrCheer500 Hello Thor, I have a question as a 3D artist trying to break into games. I've been a traditional artist my whole life, originally wanted to be a concept artist. Many have told me to not use/create my own concepts for 3D portfolio. I'm trying to have a mix, but is it really so bad to create 3D from my imagination/concepts? I can copy others concepts, but why do so many tell me this when my whole life I've relied on my own creativity and gotten great reactions? sorry its a nit picky Q https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h11m46s

#

pippythedeadly yarrCheer500 Hi again, other thing I wanted to say was I took your advice for timestamping my progress, so now when I work I start a timer, hit record on my screen and when I stop I check the timer and in a google sheet I jot the task, date and time spent. I plan to upload the entire recording sped up of the scenes I make now. It feels like a good system so thanks! A little worried that I'll be revealing mistakes and how slow I may be at parts, but being this transparent is good right? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h13m47s

MarcWight Hi Thor, I remember you saying to send you haunted items. Do you have any interest in a haunted armoire? It’s currently in Oklahoma at my neighbor’s house, but they wanted me to ask you if you about it. I sent you a friend request on discord if your are interested. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h14m49s

#

EonGenesis I'm thinking about picking up Kubuntu, Steam OS, or some other Linux OS as my main PC OS and ditching Windows because of the anti-consumer practices that is happening with 11 and was wondering if I'll miss out on anything important. Maybe compatibility on windows apps, but I heard there are 3rd party solutions for Linux on that. Thoughts? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h17m19s

#

Peupz Hey Thor, you're incredibly inspiring, and I admire everything you do. I've been doing Game Dev for 6 years, pouring my heart into it. I'm in the 4th semester of my CS degree. In Brazil, the game job market is tough. And I can't seem to find a job no matter what I do. What keeps me going: "I want to create new worlds so that you, my little brother, and I can explore them together!"How can I secure a job abroad, and what would you do in my place? I feel lost and unsure of what to do next https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h18m24s

marusfox Thor, Currently my controls engineering Unit at work has no training documentation on how to do our job or the equipment that we use. I have been putting together one based on my notes and experience from the last 12 years of working there and with that equipment. But, management has no interest in it. How can I convince them of the necessity of this kind of documentation when we have a 90% turnover rate with all but 4 out of 20 of us having more then 1 year xp in the job. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h25m39s

Pzyckoh I've been trying to make games for many years now,, but never got further then half a prototype.

#

Efical yarrCheer500 Good luck on beating the Q, I'm currently enjoying a very nice game from 2001 called Black and White. Did you also love it as much? I think there is a HUGE amount of potential lost. Also I know about the OG subnautica from 1997, if you don't know Sub Culture yourself take a look at those screenshots it's freaking rad! https://www.myabandonware.com/game/sub-culture-a4n Much love Thor <3 yarrHeart https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h32m11s

AirRaidMermaid Hello good sir I have a social media security question. One time I followed someone on twitch and they thanked me for following, but rather than addressing me by my username, they called me by my email address. Should I assume that it is trivial for a motivated third party to find my email address from a username on any/all social media sites that I use? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h33m57s

LurkerInTheWires Your voice reminds me of a formative childhood moment, at a library story time. This was before the internet was accessible, and libraries were the hubs of learning. An old man read us a book he himself wrote about a dream he had where he was a pleasant. I was enthralled by the descriptions of the plants growing and animals interacting as days after day rolled on. As his deep voice boomed through the speaker, shaking us, it was the greatest Ex-Hill Oration I've ever felt. yarrCheer500 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h36m42s

haueryoutwitch @PirateSoftware. I worked on Halo 4, and Halo 5. After that I worked as the Art Director for a start-up called Camouflaj which was recently acquired by Meta. After the acquisition. Im now helping indie devs build games and focus on streamlining art pipeline. The next step I was considering was making YouTube training Videos on the key steps of asset production.

HugoTNMilan Salutation Seigneur Thor. I recently made a little game asset to sell on itch, namely a low-poly Astronaut, as there seemed to be none already on it. I also intend to make more assets to go along in a bundle. But it being my first time doing this, I have little to no experience on sales and when to do them, any advice ? Also, Solasta or Baldur's Gate 3 ? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h48m10s

#

nundinae My friend uses a 3D program he purchased. In that program he uses free assets and models others created. What does he do with this? He makes interactive animations with them and releases them. He has a Patreon for Paid Early-Access, after 2 months they are free for everyone. He is currently making over $300 a month doing this. He can't write a single line of code. My message to you all is, if he can do it so can you just go for it. He spends about 15 hours a month doing this. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h50m51s

#

FrekeLeilon What up with the game industry and Furries lately? Have they finally realized a lot of Furries have too much money to spend, and would spend anything on anything remotely Furry looking? Or is it more the fact that a lot of Furries work in the gaming industry pushing these things through? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=7h52m11s

NullGhost Hello Thor, I could use advice. I was a QA automation engineer until almost 2 years ago at this point. I've tried to make the leap to a software development position and failed, then attempted to find work in cybersecurity with minor projects and chasing certifications. Despite all the effort, I've only ever gotten interviews for other QA positions and it feels disheartening that I might be forever stuck in my lane. Any advice? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=8h2m36s

mr_sneakz Hey thor, you inspired me to create a game. Want to create a non combat game based on the french resistance, lots of player choice involvement, actions vs consequences.

its_em_ily hi there, Thor! I wanted to pick your brain about a dilemma I'm having. I have two job offers (in the education field): the job I am currently at, and a very similar job at a new school. They are both great school. The two big cons are that my current school has a lot of people leaving for various reasons, and I'm fearful of what it will be like to start over at a new school. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=8h11m31s

Darthvorik yarrCheer500 Did Bobby Kotick/Activision ignore your Community rule? Call of Duty seems to have a lot of loyalty and success, but the Blizzard fan side (maybe just the Discord/Reddit minority) hates Kotick. What did Activision do right? Also agree that middle mouse button should not be on the scroll wheel. Oldschool Unix/Solaris mice have a single middle mouse button that's not a scroll wheel. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=8h33m38s

AllWillFreeze For the queue. Friends and I have been working on hueristic server side anti-cheat thanks to our dev work on private ser. I mean. Non-sanctioned by publisher game servers. We're taking a note out of VAC, and going to code in client edit checks on our executable. So far all the variables are numbers, so if you crack the client, you'll have as much clue as to what we're doing as we do trying to document it. Our main dev may or may not have already bricked the executable. Twice. It's fun. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=8h57m12s

tsadowshanara Hey Thor, I got your game way back in '19. Only now did I learn that you made it. I want to create my own game but I am very overwhelmed by all the things I need to do-I don't even know how to fill out a GMM, it just doesn't make sense.

Osogitz The drop for shadowfang drops off of two mobs in shadowfang keep. However, it shares a drop slot with every world item drop item at that level. So how it works is the game has to roll to see if the a world drop happens, and then it has to roll to see if it drops. However, the shadowfang has a lower drop rate then every world drop item it is rolling against https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=9h21m48s

ThatZaiGuy I saw your explanation of kernel-level anti-cheats on tiktok, and it was extremely helpful. I went and looked and was surprised at how many games I love use that style of anti-cheat.

Manbearpig86 I played WoW when I was in the Army from 2006-2013, the impact that you and your father had on gaming working at blizzard unmeasurable, also your contributions on twitch sharing your knowledge and experience is nothing short of good vibes, keep up the amazing work you do! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=10h13m40s

coreysalemme Hey Thor, really want to learn how to make games, and am even going to school for it, but my struggle lies in coming up with ideas. Do you have any recommendations for finding inspiration? Or should I just not worry about it until something hits me? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=10h14m1s

#

lolzhunter remember chat, knowing something exists is more important than remembering how it works 5 years after you learn it, for me I have to use something frequently to be confident in how it works or how to do something, but if you know something exists on a basic level, you can look into it later if it ever comes up, also unrelated, you should add the physical access control section yourself to that roadmap site if you have the time, they take contributions from github. you are cool https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=10h16m46s

mauldrian Hey Thor, I am essentially a financial advisor for people, but I'm an introvert, I love talking to people about different ways to help them in financial trouble, but I struggle to build clients since I find it hard to talk about anything else, any advice on ways to overcome that fear? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=10h21m51s

DnDominant Thank you Thor for your guidance regarding IAM for me. I have brought it up to my CISO, and it is on the table for the future, but there's a focus on completing projects for the entirety of our Security Team. I just want to be the top candidate for when they finally create their first IAM position. Which is why I asked about any guidance you may have regarding IAM certificates or knowledge bases. Thank you again! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=10h25m45s

hopfen84 If you have a free day when you're over here in Europe you should consider a day trip over to Duisburg, Germany. Zoo Zajac, the world's biggest pet store is there. And it almost is like a Zoo. They have a lot of different animals from Ducks and Chickens, to Minks, Koi, Parrots, Capibaras, Kaimans. They have three vets permanently on staff. Since you're looking at building a clinic for exotic animals, maybe they have some tips for you. Even if they don't, a visit there is always worth https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=10h26m29s

LordJukebox9 Hi Thor. Hearing your love and dedication in the video about wanting people to make things, regardless of how it turns out hit a chord in me.

Thank you for your love and emotional vulnerability. It helps more than you know https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=10h28m30s

Argonius_Doge Did you ever see Paradox's response to using AI voice work in their newest Stellaris expansion? They're doing it in the best way, where they paid the VAs for their work in creating the training data, and they get royalties on every purchase on the "The Machine Age" expansion as part of it. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=10h56m17s

LeonTheDapperShark So I have been thinking. Your first name is Jason which just feels weird to say at this point, and your preferred name is Thor. It's definitely the cooler name but it's too many letters so I've thought of a solution to this. What if we call you JT? Can we call you JT? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=11h4m41s

BrettVaa How do you compartmentalize doing so many things. I feel like I'm overwhelmed from wanting to do multiple things, writing stories, learning to code, and I kind of feel like I'm not going anywhere with it all. Learning the coding has been a lot more overwhelming than I thought it would be too. Any tips on juggling? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=11h11m5s

#

Naruto_AMV_from_2007 Hey Thor, me again. I have some comic suggestions, check out ABC comics Top Ten by Alan Moore if you haven't, its about a superhero precinct in an alternate universe.

I have decided to do some individual projects with my physics degree, I can not use this for a job because most employers dont know what to do with a physics BA.

My idea is not fully developed yet, but I would like to share it with you. Cheers. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2155599630?t=11h22m1s

#

Argonius_Doge yarrCheer500 Howdy Thor. I would like to mention a fun fact. The reason why "Daisy Bell" is a common song for machines and AI to sing, is because it was the first song ever sung by a computer.

Coregoth88 I make 6 figures. I use arrays, if statements, loops, objects, Functions/Methods; but work only in PowerShell.

robotpatriot Have you ever thought about how cars are just horse drawn carriages without the horses? And have you ever thought about how motorcycles are just machine horses? And have you ever thought about how horse chariot racing might be badass if we replaced the horses with motorcycle? No? Well Australia did in the 1920’s because they figured there wasn’t enough ways to DIE IN AUSTRALIA. And it’s been a small but incredibly dangerous sport ever since. Look it up it is AMAZING. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=0h38m25s

hgrues10 yarrcheer500 A concept in language I find interesting is how we combine multiple existing words to make a new distinct word. A couple funny examples I learned in my ongoing efforts to learn German and French are the German word for turtle which is schildkröte, which is schild (shield) and kröte (toad), and the French 'word' for potato, which is pomme de terre (literally apple of the earth) https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=1h52m26s

It was actually a tradition on the first dev team I was ever a part of to tell a short, funny, embarrassing story whenever you get promoted or an award. So here's another! During my first week at work, I wanted to impress my coworkers with my diction. We were talking about something that there was a lot of in our codebase, and so I wanted to say it was "ubiquitous".

anoobits Hi Thor, you always say: "Don't start with your dream game. How about making different stages of the dream game. Like first stage reeeally small that can be then extended into stage 2, stage 3 and so on. Reason why I am asking. Everytime I start with something "small" its something I know will not really matter to me, as a project and I drop before really advancing. However my "Dreamgame" is a thing I reeeeally want to get done in this lifetime. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=3h56m53s

Gerocael Hey Thor, currently I'm 28 and I'd like to ask you for some advice. Two years ago I went from marketing to IT via a corporate IT academy. In the end I ended up in a low code platform project (using bmc remedy) instead of using actual programming languages.

inCompleteNewb Is there a dedicated location where we can donate bread to the mods? I know that you Thor are boycotting bread but I am sure some of the mods would still like bread and I believe the community should be able to gift bread. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=5h56m27s

Romboldt I have a pipedream idea where I want to build a wilderness survival rpg where learning my indigenous language is a core mechanic. Essentially I'd like to build a language immersion experience into a survival game that's satisfying enough for long-term exposure. Aside from the enormous logistics, a major problem is that my language is endangered. I'm not fluent yet, but the more I learn the more I understand its value. How do I even justify hoping? Could this even work? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=5h58m35s

crystikrage yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 Here's hoping it works, was wondering why you seem to be very against minecraft servers in general monetizing? While you're in a position where it doesn't hurt you to run a large server at a loss, most people can't run a large server without some kind of finance or compensation for the time and effort they put into running it, plus server costs. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=6h2m19s

iiTsHaze Hey Thor, it looks like ubisoft are slowly kill rainbow six siege more and more with the monetization for the game, with them introducing a membership system now with the new operation, if siege was free to play, I think it could be ok but it's sad to see this happen more and more, Link incoming https://siege.gg/news/rainbow-six-siege-to-introduce-membership-system-with-operation-new-blood https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=6h3m4s

Peizuh Sorry for the long message incoming. I feel very demotivated to the point where I don't even feel like getting up in the morning to go to classes. I've failed most of my classes this year and I feel like I'm running out of time due to parental pressures and expectations. Anything external I want to learn, such as hacking or game design, feels like it will take too much time. I feel like I'm on a downwards spiral where at the end, I won't be able to accomplish anything. What do I do? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=6h10m28s

x1Kx Hey thor, Did you ever take a look at Dual Universe? it came out a while ago and has some appetizing characteristics, like LUA Scripting, super detailed voxel manipulation, factory gameplay and the ability to make home bases and spaceships, you can fly the spaceships from planet to planet without loading screens and the whole thing is a single shard MMO. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=6h13m4s

Cody_Does_Games Hello Thor, I just reached 500 total hours in blockgame and I am really enjoying it! however I have been banned from the auction house and would like to request an unban... in my defense I did buy the backpacks back after someone bought it, meaning mostly as a joke. will not happen again. ggkidex https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=6h22m12s

canikobunny I don't know how much you like more casual MMOs, but there's one from another indie dev I've been really enjoying lately.

WhiteRookTTV Just dropping in some bitties, can't say I agree with every single thing you've ever said, but purely the fact that you're out here willing to help people get started in the game dev industry and all makes you worthy of all this and more (not that I can give much atm) You're part of the reason i've started to get into modding tho. Hopefully with enough experience I can one day put that into a game too, once I have the time for it :) Thank you for all you're doing for us future devs! <3 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=7h28m14s

kenvill_kleer I am currently working as a programmer at a big games outsourcing company. it's a safe job, however I applied to a smaller company who made games I grew up with. Passed the interviews and they offered me the job. Now I am thinking if I should remain at the safe company or go to the smaller one which I am more passionate about. I will have 6 months of probation at the smaller one and I am a bit scared of those because there's the risk of being fired... https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=7h32m21s

x1Kx Hey Thor, I had an idea for a game a while back and may still try to make it one day, what do you think about a concept based on pvpve as an MMO or instanced arena, but the gimmick is that the players are faction based, one faction is hardcore grinders and the other faction is pay to win. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=7h33m29s

HCTSon Mr. Thor, as someone who is interested in making awesome games that others would enjoy but struggling to find which genre I'd enjoy developing the most, would you say my time would be better served making small projects and releasing them on say steam using different genres or just submit projects into game jams for different genres until I find the type of game I enjoy making the most?

MAB_Cat Hey Thor! I'm excited to try game design again soon. As a writer it's exciting and intimidating to learn coding and art, since it seems like there's not a lot of opportunity for just writers in this industry. Any advice for writers looking into game dev? I want to write books for a living too, but also work full time. Not to mention other hobbies like D&D and crocheting. How do I manage multiple interests and a job that are so time consuming? TY! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=9h2m43s

However because of pandemic I had to start my degree again from scratch and am still studying. Between homework and work I end up getting kinda overwhelmed and sick of code.

Ozedunm yarrCheer250 Hello Thor. I've been thinking about this for a while and, while you come at it from a different perspective (you as a hybrid developer/consumer while he only a consumer), I feel like you are filling the gap left in the gaming community after the passing of John - TotalBiscuit, TotalHalibut, The Cynical Brit - Bain in 2018. Thank you for being another Vocal Pillar of consumer rights standards, education, and advocacy that the gaming community has sorely needed. yarrCheer250 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=9h32m47s

ChookNoo Hiya Thor. Your ferrets are so cute, does your love for small fuzzy creatures also extend to bunnies? I adopted a pair of bunnies that now own me, my apartment, and my bank account. is owning ferrets a similar experience? I've considered adopting ferrets in the past but I've heard that they can smell pretty pungent. Also, would you be willing to plug a website that the shelter i volunteer at in my area uses to track abandoned domestic rabbits? It only works if the public posts sightings https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=9h34m57s

Zeemolol Hi Thor! I’m a game dev with 11+ years of experience. I’ve worked at studios that avoid design documents to favor rapid prototyping and others that follow test-driven development with unit tests before production code.

Also, what process do recommend to balance creativity and structure in your projects? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=9h49m24s

Die Schublade ist von Pilzen befallen" - its not a direct translation, but its a new joke. it translates to "For molds sake!

I live alone, don't have any local friends or family, feel very hopeless. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=11h30m36s

#

BasicallyClutch Hello, just wanted to say thank you! You gave me confidence and I finally got my first Software Engineering job the other day xd. also I am trying to learn game development on the side because you motivated me to follow my passion. learning unreal engine right now kinda difficult but getting there. so thank you! :) https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=11h35m55s

sneaky_457 yarrCheer500 The theory that life is one big simulation seems pretty bizzare, yet there is actually no way to disprove it. We could literally be living in a simulated world and have no way to know for sure if that's true or not. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=11h52m5s

jabbaaaaaaa_ they have a 90 day for free to play. it should be off by early june. I doubt it will be they were super upset. I left with all legal rights to my game, but they liked my studio branding and I gave them the studio in return to walk away clean with my game. I now work under Crystal Frog Games lol https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=11h55m1s

pyrokaji yarrCheer500 I'm in progress of making an entire D&D campaign from scratch. It's set in an early Fantasy-Steampunk theme with a lean to lovecraftian horror and access to late 1800's era guns. It's all because of you that I've felt this is something I can achieve, so thank you Thor. If you want to give me a name, I'll make it a name of a city! I cast mend orifices with a delay of 1 minute. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=12h1m36s

lumbz Hi Thor, I work a very niche job servicing expensive equipment. Niche enough that there's probably 20 people with my skill set in each state. Without directly asking someone, as I don't personally know anyone that does what I do, how would I figure out what my target salary should be? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=12h2m35s

#

tbf08eu yarrCheer500 Hi Thor, I've been watching for a few months and I love that you draw to explain things. I used to do this and was shamed by an employer for it years ago, he said it was patronizing to the customer, so I stopped. I started doing it again after watching your streams, and it's helped a lot with my current job. Can you explain where you learned this technique? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=12h6m16s

caffeineod11 Hi, Thor. Long message incoming. How do you study and learn new things? I basically didn't do any serious learning throughout my adolescent years. I grew up in Northeast Asia, where heavy homework is the norm. During high school, I would come to school super early and copy my friends' work every single day because I was lazy. I got away with exams by putting in minimal effort, and I would get above-average grades. More in part 2 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=12h33m31s

#

caffeineod11 Part 2: People always said I was a smart kid and that I would do way better if I applied myself. I honestly believed that, to the point where I developed an ego, thinking that I could learn most things if I really tried. But reality hit me like a brick wall when I entered college. Things got more difficult, and I couldn't just look at stuff and go, "Yeah, that makes sense." More in part 3 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=12h33m59s

#

caffeineod11 Part 3: It turns out I don't know how to learn; I never developed those skills when I was young, and I am afraid that I need to start from scratch. I tried things like note-taking, but I don't know what to write or how to utilize the notes. I need a direction where I can start. Any recommendations? Sorry if this is too heavy for the stream. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2156450067?t=12h34m26s

sorryimreallybad What games would you recommend a dev looking for game loops inspiration, play? If I use a jigsaw puzzle as an analogy, I feel like I've got the edges of it together and large sections of the middle, but there's still areas in the middle that need to be filled with something satisfying or fun. Bascially the game's map was predesigned for how large we wanted it for good reason, and now it's figuring how to fill the gaps. Think tiny BoTW.

senkwich Hey Thor, years ago, I used to make small games for friends in Visual Basic 5 and on a TI-83. These days, I have a comfortable non-gaming job, but am getting tired of the work. I’d like to pick back up creating games, but feel intimidated by younger developers, lack relationships with artists or musicians to collaborate with, and feel pressure that I could never turn making games into a career. Do you have advice for an older software engineer? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2157305717?t=1h0m0s

How does an indie dev find a professional artist for their game, especially if the work isn't consistent (You want the same artist for the whole game but the asset list changes as you go and isn't needed all at once) Most artists I find on twitter don't do commissions or have specific options they offer, how do find the right artist and approach building that relationship?

Do you have advice 2 stop players from simply opening up the game & looking at the code? I imagine most big engines have decomp available, and I am also fond of releasing the source so if you can compile the game is free. You might be able 2 use the multi bubble wand 2 sneak on bubbles 2 get the 1st squirrel. Sorry if you thought of this. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2157305717?t=6h4m51s

LasVenturasss Hey Thor, I really enjoy your content and appreciate the positivity you bring to all of us. Even though I'm not into game development, I find it fascinating and really value your perspective. I'm curious, is there any game genre that you particularly dislike? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2157305717?t=6h25m2s

duck_desperado yarrCheer500 hey thor, I finished heartbound and I had so much fun, I cant wait for it to be finished. Also, would you recommend multiclassing irl by getting certificates in different fields (based on interest)? would that improve the possibility getting a job? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2157305717?t=6h36m14s

#

Saiyanfox10 Speaking of Sakamoto Days, which I can confirmed is a great read go read if it's available. Another anime I would recommend is Mission: Yozakura Family which is a about boy who ends up marrying his childhood friend who is from a spy family to avoid dying from her Brother who is overprotective of the childhood friend. Afterward it becomes spy family shenanigans. It both has an anime and a manga. Please give it a read or a watch if avaliable https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2157305717?t=6h43m3s

OUVIO_ Canadian anim vet from yesterday. To answer your question, I've worked as a 2D animator, Supervisor, Series Director, and Supervising Director of a studio's Anim Department. I considered commissions, but don't know if lucrative or consistent enough to support myself / family. I struggle with figuring out where to find gigs / commission opportunities. A fellow vet and I started our own anim corp in 2020 and had a couple of gigs, but the projects aren't consistent enough yet. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2157305717?t=6h44m58s

taffynay “Tell Ea-nasir: Nanni sends the following message: When you came, you said to me as follows: ‘I will give Gimil-Sin (when he comes) fine quality copper ingots.’ You left then but you did not do what you promised me. You put ingots which were not good before my messenger (Sit-Sin) and said: ‘If you want to take them, take them; if you do not want to take them, go away!’ https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2157305717?t=7h10m25s

taffynay What do you take me for, that you treat somebody like me with such contempt? I have sent as messengers gentlemen like ourselves to collect the bag with my money (deposited with you) but you have treated me with contempt by sending them back to me empty-handed several times, and that through enemy territory. Is there anyone among the merchants who trade with Telmun who has treated me in this way? You alone treat my messenger with contempt! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2157305717?t=7h28m54s

#

taffynay On account of that one (trifling) mina of silver which I owe you, you feel free to speak in such a way, while I have given to the palace on your behalf 1,080 pounds of copper, and umi-abum has likewise given 1,080 pounds of copper, apart from what we both have had written on a sealed tablet to be kept in the temple of Samas. How have you treated me for that copper? You have withheld my money bag from me in enemy territory; it is now up to you to restore (my money) to me in full. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2157305717?t=7h29m21s

#

taffynay Take cognizance that (from now on) I will not accept here any copper from you that is not of fine quality. I shall (from now on) select and take the ingots individually in my own yard, and I shall exercise against you my right of rejection because you have treated me with contempt.” https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2157305717?t=7h29m53s

Z3aloth Hi Thor. I really need your help please. I currently work as a support data engineer for a company that did not come out with a good game since 4 years now.

dippetwitch Whats your opinion on the focus of stories in 3D games? I have talked to friends about it feels like stories in 3D games often are not as complex as some manga, movies, anime or TV series.

andOlga Hello Thor. Allow me to regale you with an anecdote on the dangers of overly literal translations. This happened at work a while ago: an English-only-speaker was talking with one who is natively Russian, and he was having trouble reaching him. The natively-Russian person tells him: "to reach me faster, speak with me through the dog". The Englishman is understandably confused and scared. What was meant was: "mention (@) me", because the @ symbol in Russian is known as a "dog". https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2158138487?t=0h40m49s

About your concerns about the AI in Acolyte and controlling the experience, I actually did some testing in my playthrough and it seems like they cheat a bit by having specific key sections be scripted. The AI also seems to have been specifically trained for the game, so it rarely if ever goes off track at all. I certainly never had any problems.

Now are our 7 brain cells bound with victorious wreaths; our bruised fingers flooding the queue; our references to hotel California to getting burgered, our dreadful marches to delightful encouragement.. also, Our goblin lord, our liege, I request to play D&D with you. I haven't played 2nd edition since 1999 and no DM https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2158138487?t=3h15m31s

MrAXE0L I bring you this TTS because I was playing around in unreal engine yesterday and something made me mald during it. I decided to read throught the project settings of unreal to see what things i could do or change, and when it came to a few diffrent settings, it did not say in the description of that setting what it did, it just said the name again which did not help. but the worst was with 2D physics where it me asked a question if i wanted it to be turned on or not. so yeah. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2158138487?t=5h30m51s

sneaky_457 Hey Thor, Here's another nature fact for you: In some parts of the world, there are lakes that appear perfectly normal but are so acidic that they can dissolve metal. One such example is Lake Nyos in Cameroon, which experienced a deadly event in 1986 when a sudden release of carbon dioxide from the lake suffocated over 1,700 people and thousands of livestock in nearby villages. It's a reminder of the hidden dangers that nature can hold. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2158138487?t=6h1m10s

ShinichiSaiko Hey Thor, thank you for getting me the ass kick that I needed to finally make a game. Started an apprenticeship as a programmer 3 years ago so that I can make games someday, but I only started doing gamedev after watching you.

Ender_Onryo Yesterday I sent a TTS asking how to prevent players from data mining the solutions to a puzzle game if I make one. You asked why I used the number 2 rather than the word. Twitch messages have a character cap of 500. So when sending long TTS I have to get creative. Removing words, substituting contractions, replacing specific multi character words with single character numbers or letters. Quite a fun brain teaser tbh. But it does sound awkward so I will try to avoid it in the future. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2158138487?t=8h29m57s

taffynay to be sincerely honest in my humble opinion, without being sentimental and of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, and without lies to the actual truth, with my clear open mind and clean heart, expressing what ever is embedded inside me for a long time which I didn't say because I was nervous.

shadowjonn Hello Thor, was wondering if you ever heard of the game Ripout. It's a co-op horror shooter about exploring derelict ships in space that are corrupted with bio-machine mutations.

Ashlyn_Rane Mahatma Gandhi was known for walking hundreds of miles barefoot. Over time, he developed incredibly thick calluses on his feet, stronger than the soles of many boots.

A super-calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2158138487?t=10h29m24s

topsoil_iris Good morning from Canada, Thor! Your videos inspired me to start working on a design document for a game for the first time, but I recognize that I don't have the skills to make that game right away.

The reality is that i studied while corona was a thing but then actors strike and writers strike aswell as big layoffs aswell as financial and health issues it lead to me not being able to own all of the programm licenses i need to finish my demo reel.

Rami1114 just following up, they've kept up with my pay demands over time so as mentioned pay isn't an issue at all. I'm just losing passion for what I do, even if I'm good at it. I'd love to pivot but it guarantees a pay cut. I'm probably answering myself in typing this, take the risk when I can afford the pay cut.

mikaelefant Good Morning Thor! Here's another "cool" fact for everyone! A man named Artyom Sidorkin went to the hospital reporting chest pain and coughing up blood. Doctors suspected that it was a lung tumor, and scheduled a surgery to remove it. The surgeon discovered, however, that it wasn't a tumor that was causing Artyom's discomfort, but a fir tree. Reportedly, Artyom had inhaled a fir seed and it had sprouted inside his lungs. Remember this the next time you take a walk on your property Thor! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=0h36m4s

atlashasatwitch Has acquired a cursed quest. . .Wait- no he hasn’t. He’s instead come to tell you of his plans. Many moons ago he acquired a cursed quest, and to the woe of the chat-...nothing has been heard of his triumph. However, one cannot rush greatness. You see chat, while other people have been doing their quests. Mal has been accumulating power. Soon, the boat will leave for the Bermuda triangle. Soon, he shall unlock the true power of the Triangle. No Block, No Game. . .Only Mal. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=0h47m32s

andOlga Hello Thor. Here's a fun read for you: an RCE vulnerability that affects all versions of PHP from the past decade (7.0+) as long as they're running under Linux. It has been fixed now, including in the old PHP versions, as it was a bug in libc rather than PHP itself, and PHP was the only thing affected due to some peculiar use of the library. However, outdated servers are still going to be affected. https://www.ambionics.io/blog/iconv-cve-2024-2961-p1 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=0h52m2s

spiderlover0909 Hey Thor, I have another game recommendation. It’s called Who’s Lila and it’s a point-and-click reverse mystery game where instead of picking dialogue options you control the protagonist’s face to convey emotion. It also has some ARG elements, nothing too crazy but it was fun. Also I got heartbound, I love Emelio so much and I’m currently plugging through the ARG. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=1h54m24s

JAMESTACORONTE yarrCheer500 My brother has been trying to get me to avoid working at a gas station when I just get out of trade school instead of going to an industry job or working at the amazon fulfillment center that he is working at with him... I am more comfortable working at a gas station job and want to ease myself into an industry job instead of diving in headfirst. I'm not knocking his advice, I just think he's being how he normally is. What should I do? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=1h59m49s

Zelda7999 Hey thor hope you're doing well, I was wondering if I could get some advice. I've been at a job for about 5 months, and it's only making me miserable. I would find another job, but I'm scared of how leaving so soon would look to others. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=2h1m30s

atlashasatwitch Hello Father Thor, it has been many streams and even many more Merk resets since my last confession. I’ve come to repent for the horrible things I have done. My sins are as follows: On April first- I had convinced a Blockgame player that Turbo Encabulators do not burn in lava. On May fourth, I had bought three black badgers off the Dark web, only to be shocked when I was told I didn’t have a job as a Power Plant Hacker while getting myself in trouble with Peta. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=2h32m17s

GreyRellik Well, I WAS working on a prototype, but I have a more generalized passion to simply "make things" which has now drifted into making another attempt at fight animation type stuff. I guess on that note, do you have any advice or suggestions for someone like me who just wants to make things, but can't stop thinking of more and more and more new ideas they want to try? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=2h35m27s

philcringe Good morning, Thor! Wanted to get your opinion on a couple dumb gaming things. The 500 dollar league of legends skin. Sony accidently shipping the destiny 2 expansion and the elden ring expansion a whole week early. And the fact that the destiny expansion is going to be 300 gigabytes. Preach to us, oh goblin lord! Also i cast chapped lips https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=3h34m15s

batter_sempai Hi Thor, thank you for the encouragement to make games. Thanks to your encouragement, recently I made a game for a "worst visual novel ever" game jam. where we intentionally made bad visual novels. It was fun to make something without worrying about it being good. A friend even offered to voice a character and did a terrible Beatle's accent to add to the comedy. It was a great experience. Also, cursed fact: Woodpecker tongues are so long that they wrap around the back of their skulls. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=3h54m15s

Phenack yarrCheer500 In case you didn't know, even if you do manage to hit level 100 in the DRG season pass you should still pick your cosmetic tree items carefully, the pass alone will not give you enough scrip to complete it, to do that you need to do the seasonal challenges which renew 1 every 20 or so hours https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=4h46m56s

atlashasatwitch AH, a third tts? Is it another silly meme? No. This is serious Mal. I have finally played Heartbound. And there is a single comment I wish to make. There is a cutscene in the “Office” part of the game where you are doing some menial office task. Not to spoil anything, but from the bottom of my heart: Thank you. That little cutscene, although just a piece of the game, was a literal wakeup from my office working reality. A part of me has reawakened. I wish to one day show my gratitude. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=5h8m23s

troytech new m n m track just dropped called houdini. its a callback to his og music. i think the cursed quest should be a lottery that is active for 10 seconds. that way people not using auto clickers have a chance. on sony and their bs remember this advice from napoleon never interrupt your enemy while he's making a mistake its bad manners. japanese business pride means they will watch the company burn to the ground before they will give in. they do not care what it will cost them. everything. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=5h23m36s

HugoTNMilan Bonjour Seigneur des Gobelins. I noticed you didn't answer my question last time: Solasta or Baldur's Game 3? Personally, I think they offer a similar value, just in different fields since both are 5th edition. BG3 in production value, writing, and the feel of D&d. While Solasta do it in accessibility and mechanics, it feel like it was made by D&d nerds. Anyway, do you recommend a whiteboard to do game design? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=5h40m37s

AFKabi Thor, I'm working on my first game, its a fast paced platformer that is about building and then using your speed to climb a level. Imagine Super Meat boy movement, but climbing like Jump King across a single large map, But Im struggling with judgement. I have played it so much I have lost sight of the skill, and enjoyment of my game. I am unsure if my game has proper skill expression. I know that playtesters would help, but how could I get them? How can I improve my own judgement? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=5h42m26s

ranafrog Hi Thor and chat, just a friendly reminder that a raging Primal Path Bugbear Barbarian with a glaive and the feat of martial adept (lunging attack) can have over 45 feet melee range attacks, apart that if you Tpose youare a Hulking 90 feet from one point of the arm to another, that for sure would grant advantage on intimidation checks right? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2160693148?t=6h10m40s
