OGKalezer Hey Thor, I have a question?! Alan Wake 2 hasn't made a profit for Remedy and I believe it is due to the Epic exclusive deal!! Is that your assessment as well?? And if yes am I wrong to wait for it to be on Steam where I have the first one?? Is Epic exclusive deals okay or is it fair for me to wait for Steam?? I just want to support the dev studio but I really don't like the Epic exclusive stuff!! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=8h50m4s

nosikaonline yo thor! from the whole DB issues and stuff with the server, I heard that you're the only one with true admin (like to restart the server and whatnot), why don't you have any others with those perms? Also if you could get blockgame up soon it'd be super appreciated https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=8h52m35s

KGGKasar yarrCheer500 Good morning, Thor! It is good to hear your voice again. Now then, you attacked a fellow wizard's hair last time we dueled, and that is a big mistake, as our hair is the source of our power. I cast Platinum Baldening. Good luck casting spells now! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=8h53m42s

0gb0bbyj0hnson Wanted to pick your brain; I know that cheaper pricing for developing countries is integral to fair and effective spread of a game but what do you think about BSG allowing it's hacking community to exploit this using a vpn in order to inflate the player base, meanwhile they do banwaves to appease the actual playerbase but they don't focus on hardware ip bans until that account is caught twice which allows them to buy another account for pennies on the dollar? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=8h58m24s

jobbozo One day, you realize that every decision you’ve ever made, no matter how small, has led you to this exact moment—reading this sentence—and every future decision will stem from it, forever trapping you in a loop of your own making. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h2m38s

pkmandude Hey Thor mostly a shorts watcher here but i wanted to come in and say you've been such a great influence on my life since the start of the year. Thanks to your content I finally took the dive into doing something I love. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h5m37s

thedripdirector The Great Molasses Flood, also known as the Boston Molasses Disaster, was a disaster that occurred on Wednesday, January 15, 1919. A large storage tank filled with 2.3 million gallons of molasses, weighing approximately 13,000 short tons, burst, and the resultant wave of molasses rushed through the streets at an estimated 35 miles per hour, killing 21 people and injuring 150. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h6m5s

mfredbird Hello Thor, did i ever tell you about my first failed business? I lost all my money after starting up a dating site for people to breed they chickens. I called it quits after struggling to make hens meet. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h7m2s

#

l_5050 Hey Thor, I started making a metroidvania with godot with a few of my friends and i made a lot so far. I made a spell meter as a resource for spells to use, I made a skill tree, I've programmed a timestop spell, but I'm having trouble with the long term thinking of how the game would be balanced properly, from things such as how much spells cost, to how to make enemy attacks genuinely challenging. Do you have advice for balancing a metroidvania based around spells? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h13m41s

#

henryho96 Hey Thor, do you happen to remember a game that is currently in Early Access, that was essentially an old-school space sand-box rpg? It has a UI that was reminiscence of Star Control 1988 but mordernised. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h17m39s

#

nickhadges19981954 Hey Thor I have started watching you just recently and I have to say you are a huge encouragement. I am taking a precal class as a pre-requisite for a computer science degree and was wondering what advice you have for someone who feels like they either aren't going to do well in what they are attempting to do or struggle with imposter syndrome in the sense of everyone else believes I will do fine but I don't believe in myself at all. Thank you and have a great day man. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h17m59s

#

Sonca Hello Thor! This is going to be my checkpoint to decide to start working with a friend on our own game, it is going to be a long road and full of experiences, but I want you to know that you gave us the help we needed to encourage us. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h19m45s

miameelove yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 today is my last day of maternity leave with our 3 month old and I wanted to say thank you for inadvertently helping me get through the first few post partum/newborn weeks - your streams were usually on during the frequent waking hours and gave me something to turn on to keep awake and during the days you weren't streaming, your vods gave me something to focus on to get over the Baby Blues. Thanks for everything you do! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h20m26s

marusfox Awooo good morning king of the goblins. Is there a polite way to tell coworking and contractors to f off cause I'm taking a sick day? I called out sick with a 102 fever and in the last 3 hours have gotten 9 calls from the field wanting me to fix there problems. starting to regret going into engineering. lol https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h21m12s

TeriyakiStyle Hey Thor, Character artist here. Been in the biz about as long as you. After layoffs feeling cynical and bitter but your content energized me for games again. Happy to find someone decent to support. Keep it up thanks. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h28m1s

#

sushicatto I recently found the motivation to start doing gamedev again, in part thanks to your shorts. Big thank you for that. But I often take inspiration from games I love, and with the recent drama between a popular free asset maker (Kenney) and an indie dev over "copying", I'm curious about your thoughts on inspiration vs plagiarism. I know you've said everything is a remix of a remix, but how do you draw that line and say "No, i have put enough into this that it is its own thing". https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h28m21s

#

killersquid2603 I didn't mean it as some sort of gotcha when i linked the GMS eula, I legitimately think they were changed to include this. Could you please look at it and tell me WHY it is or isn't the same, i was trying to understand, not gotcha. Article 3.1. EULA: https://gamemaker.io/en/legal/gamemaker-terms-of-service https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h35m41s

JassEVE Hey Mal, I stumbled across one of your shorts recently and I was blown away by how well you've done. Congratulations man. The positivity of your content resonates deeply with me, I have nothing but respect for anyone who is putting out light in this time of darkness, you know? I'm sorry for all the times I treated you poorly, I'd love to catch up some time, feel free to reach out if you like. Cheers, Jass https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h48m2s

The_FakeSlim_Shady Love to see that my YT super chat still got read, I was half expecting to not see it, huge wins. Any advice for a fledgling developer getting his feet wet and learning the ropes? I've got a two page game doc that describes and illustrates how the game should play. Currently just learning by doing and wondering if you have any advice for that area between "I can confidently develop anything I want" and "I literally don't even know where to start" https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h50m4s

#

henryho96 Hey Thor, there was a game recommendation on your channel about a sandbox rpg games like Kenshi but in space. It looks like a modernise Star Command 1988 with modern ui and sprite. But I cannot find it again. I wonder if you could remember what it was. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=9h52m40s

goodbobonline777 Hey Thor, I want to code a mod for Minecraft that wont be for anyone else but just for my own fun and experience. I keep procrastinating though because it is the largest piece of code I have tried to make, as well as I have to make it in java. I don't want to be lame for coding java. Should I continue on anyway or should I find a less daunting project? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=10h17m29s

Kvetchy Hey Thor, love your content. Inspired me to download Gamemaker and give it a go. Sorry if you've talked about this already, but can you give your thoughts about game patents like the SoM Nemesis system? Does that kind of thing stop games from doing certain things that appear to be mechanics in other titles? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=10h24m6s

b0rsch_bust3r Greetings, Thor. I fondly remember my years as a QA at gamedev. Worked with Hello Games to release The Last Campfire game, was a lot of fun. Thanks to you, I'm gradually raising my morale and getting on the path to web pentesting. With love from Ukraine! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=10h32m11s

b0land22 The Boston molasses flood is a tragedy but look up the Dublin Whiskey Fire of 1875. Thirteen people died when a six inch deep river of whiskey flowed through the city. All deaths were due to alcohol poisoning. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=10h35m52s

s1ipr this is poorly late timed, but nobody likes devs not good at their game *ubisoft with r6* they broke the game for console for almost a month because they were trying to fix issues that nobody had instead of working on anti-cheat for pc and console lol https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=10h36m43s

#

BigRedGingEH Good day, hoping this reaches you. I'm a huge fan and love everything you do. I've got an idea brewing in my mind about a "program" not so much a game but a utility tool for D&D or other table top games. I was wondering if you have resources or suggestions for making an app or steam application instead of a game. Sorry probably worded poorly at work so not likely to hear this if you make it. Have a fantastic stream and day everyone! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=10h37m40s

CodeTheVoid yarrCheer500 Last 2Y have been hard for me. Failed Math 2 3 times and am not allowed to study it in my country anymore. After trying to start my own company 2x, 2 people won't pay and put me at the brink of bankruptcy. Still owed about 60K+ 1 Hope is left. I have learned Mechanic and built 3 Racecars FSAE now. But I didn't even get an Interview yet. I can work as a Mechanic, but I would need to safe up for years. My dream is dying and I don't know if I can save it. Do I need to bite the bullet https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=10h43m32s

enhypnion I am an artist and I have been creating a world for a very long time that is based on my nightmares (and depression and ADHD). I feel a compulsion to tell as story borne of this, and it keeps getting stronger, and more and more I keep feeling a game is the right avenue. Where do I start? And should I be worried that this feels like the only story that matters to me? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=11h13m7s

Kaschury_Meyami Hey Thor, do you have any advice about how to get into the industry as a game designer. I'm 21 and its my dream to become a game designer and work on games but I struggle with how to even get there. I've made a bunch of small systems for DnD and I've made a few prototype board games so far and was rejected twice from a position to study game design at a Uni. Now I'm struggling to figure out how to realize my dream and evolve this hobby to a job. What do you think I could do now? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=11h30m31s

I_H4V3_B4D_A1M I probably wont have enough room for my second question so I'll just ask one. I've been Game Testing (or rather QA testing) for two years and I was wondering if I would just look for gaming companies that require game testers, or do I just learn game design/ game development? Thank you for taking the time to listen and keep up being you https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=12h4m46s

fupa_slayer3005 Hi Thor, I'm currently still in highschool in Australia, but looking for university courses now. Game dev is my passion, and I've started doing game jams and learning godot. However I have good enough grades to get into a top 50 university in the world for computer science. I definitely want to do software engineering over other comsci subjects, but should I go to uni and do game dev instead? Or just not go at all and focus on game dev? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2187974729?t=12h5m52s

ProfessrFate yarrCheer500 happy birthday mister twitcher. You have been disturbingly immortalized upon a burger in my cursed quest, may you not have nightmares.

SuprChikn good morning Thaugh. Welcome back, hope you're feeling a lot better now. Two quick things: can you please lower the price of the demo? I just can't afford it right now.

Cipherftw YO! I heard chat asking about good sci fi books. Checkout StormWeaver by Bryce O'Connor. Humanity has spread to the stars, mysterious aliens get angry, neuro-optics and amazing Iron Man armor that gets stronger as you get more betterer at fighting. Out on Kindle Unlimited and Patreon/ Reddit (free delayed. He lets us read a chapter at a time every 2ish weeks). Amazing series! Also, Coral Island is amazing. Stardew but way way better. Issues with frames and crashing randomly tho. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2191351287?t=0h24m50s

Fae_viking_princess Hey Thor, do you like Huey Lewis and the News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in 83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. Anyway, here's by business card. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2191351287?t=0h31m49s

kirrosaki Lets see! I've finally started sharing things about my new game project, now that I'm officially done with Abyssal Frontier. For this one, I'm thinking of switching to Gamemaker, since it would take a lot of effort to try and work around Ren'py's limitations, which I made the first one in. Since I know python/pygame, I do know how to make "most" of what I'd need but I'd be fighting Ren'py every step of the way, Thoughts and/or opinions? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2191351287?t=1h50m23s

l_5050 By the way Thor, I did some more work on that spell based metroidvania I mentioned to you earlier, and I was wondering for your opinion on something.

thegreatwyrdling Hi Thor, I made a game in GameMaker, and it was both easy and quite fun to make a simple demo. I used the yarrNeck emoji as the player avatar, and now your face is flying across the screen at the speed of light. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2191351287?t=3h10m12s

JohnFighterman All hail the Goblin Lord! I don’t know if you remember, but last month, after being gifted Twitch sub and YouTube membership, I came to one of your streams and dropped a 10 sub grenade. Some time later I’ve heard of Twitch sub price increases, and since I’ve already been gifted another YT membership, let’s pay it forward while it’s still on the cheaper end. Get ready to dodge, chat. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2191351287?t=3h11m20s

#

JohnFighterman Fun Fact. Due to regional pricing on Amazon that acknowledges my country’s currency while Twitch doesn’t and makes me use Euro’s, it’s actually cheaper for me to use Prime sub, and that’s even before the upcoming subscription price increase. So, like any sane person would, I’m gonna get myself a nice T3 for the next 6 months just to support You as a creator and this awesome community you’ve built. I also promise that next time you hear from me it’ll be about game development. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2191351287?t=3h30m15s

#

JohnFighterman So, anyway, I’ve had an idea for a simple game for quite a while. I’ve pitched it to my friends to see if it has any potential other than a learning experience and they said it’s quite good. Without revealing too many details, I came looking for suggestions. What engines would you recommend for a 2D, arcade-ish/puzzle-ish game with pixelated graphics and premade, rectangular levels that don’t have to scroll through the screen? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2191351287?t=3h30m50s

descendency Hi Thor and chat. Welcome back from the dead. In the past you said you made block game because you found minecraft boring.

warrabbitt Hey Thor! Long time no see. Haven't been around since way back when I was still in high school, but saw your streams on YT after so long and figured I'd pop in. I'm working on the very bare bones basics of starting to try and make a game- I'd love to hear if you've got a good list of advice! It's supposed to be a semi-2D story-driven game with minor resource management, I'd be writing for it. I'd share more details storywise but that would be a bit in detail for here. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2191351287?t=5h0m17s

MrMaros0 Hello Thor Honor. I'm annoyed by the Steam Summer Sales currently because all the games I really look forward to have yet to be released, so I'm playing Final Fantasy 14 right now to pass the time. One of those games I'm waiting for a lot is called Mouse, it's a boomer shooter in the style of old 1930s cartoons, and it looks amazing. I hope it will be good, I've been disappointed too often recently with games I've been hyped for like Payday 3 and hopefully not Killing Floor 3 next year. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2191351287?t=11h59m48s

NatNotSoBrown Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Throgus The Wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the Goblins would tell you. It’s a ferret legend. Darth Throgus was a Dark Lord of the ferrets, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the sevens to create life… He had such a knowledge of the ferret side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The ferret side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h8m34s

Probably significantly less fun if you lost to a duck. Actually probably pretty humiliating in fact. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h10m19s

ProjectxAnimus Good very early morning Thor, I glad to see you back on streaming. I wanted to ask you if you think someone like me (disabled with ESRD and stuck at home on dialysis, unable to graduate & network in person at all) has a chance to integrate with the Game Dev community as an unproven (would-be) solo dev. I have been working solo on a project and wanted to know if you would be willing to check out my GDD for it for any quick insights. If so, should I send it on Twitch Chat or on the DM https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h11m24s

#

Cipherftw GOOD MORNING! Welcome back! Hope you keep on keepin on and feeling better! 2 (3?) things! First, someone told me the other day that the entirety of the internet can be brought to its knees by unplugging 3 routers. I'm assuming thats a lie, or at least I really hope it is.. Second! Have you seen die hard 4? Is a so called 'fire sale' even theoretically possible? And is the encryption software that Farrell designed possible/ real, or total bologna? Love you! And you chat. Love you too! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h16m0s

Killl_Roy I give you the dice of name change. You may only roll it once and it will instantly change your legal name to another. Now you could get a good roll and your name could go from Jason to actually just being Thor. Or you could get a bad one and go from Jason to Dylan. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h19m5s

Killl_Roy *Trips and falls into ravenous mod pit* AHHHH! OH THE PAIN! AHHH! THERE TEARING MY FLESH! BUDDHA, ZEUS, ODIN, RA, GOD, YAHWEH, ONE OF YOU GUYS GET OFF YOU ASS AND SAVE ME! AHHHH! HELP! SATAN, YOU OWE ME! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h19m32s

aelfinn Welcome back, wanted to tell you about two games you might have heard on, first is Slay the Princess a choose your own adventure. second is Cleared Hot, a rehash of the old desert and jungle strike games. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h19m58s

#

liam764478 hey thor how are you doing and how is the development i wanted to say i think pennywise is a good example of cosmic horror a godlike entity fell from the sly when we were still cavemen and it's been feeding off of fear up to the present. It's true form would make us go made it's the deadlights that's why the giant spider is the closest thing to it's true form we can comprehend sorry if i got a few things wrong it's been a while since i saw the movies https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h23m4s

SartreanPenguin Have you heard about someone making Linux bootable off of Google Drive? I tried reading the blog from the programmer themselves, but it all went over my head pretty quick. Sounds pretty impressive though, saw a video and read a couple articles about it. Name is Ersei n' Stuff, and is in college still apparently https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h26m59s

#

MrAXE0L hey thor. A few days ago I thought of something that has got me thinking and I want to ask what you think of it. If and AI make art, that's called AI art. And since cooking is also art. If an AI makes food do we call that AI food or does it fall in the category of AI art? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h30m57s

Rami1114 In metric, one milliliter of water occupies one cubic centimeter, weighs one gram, and requires one calorie of energy to heat up by one degree centigrade—which is 1 percent of the difference between its freezing point and its boiling point. Hydrogen weighing the same amount has exactly one mole of atoms in it. Whereas in the American system, the answer to ‘How much energy does it take to boil a room-temperature gallon of water?’ is ‘Go F yourself' https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h49m6s

vsryan Morning all! Thor I believe I may be a hamster. My job has me walking perpetually and while working I can think of my projects and where to take them. But then I get home and sit down and my brain turns to unseasoned mashed potatoes. I think I need a stationary bike for my desk. Thoughts? yarrNotes https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h56m3s

MrMaros0 Hello Thornado. Video games are something I've always loved and have a deep passion for. Ever since I was little I always wanted to make a game, but always put that idea in the back of my head due to insecurities, mental struggles and the sort. Recently I have been hating my job more than ever, and have been trying to collect ideas and plans to start working on making a video game with my best friend to hopefully leve of what I love and be free. Thanks for your positive influence. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=2h59m28s

liam764478 hey again thor have you played the complex found footage it's inspired by kane pixels backrooms the complex found footage is the free version and the complex expedition is the payed one it adds more things to explore as expected but not sure which one to recommand start with the free one i guess https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h0m41s

#

Ender_Onryo Hey Thor, I had an interesting experience the other day. I was playing FEZ and couldn't figure a thing out. Later someone helped me out with it, it was something I might have figured out but it's what it's. I felt dumb for not noticing the thing and then I remembered that you said a failure simply means I can learn from it to not have it happen again. Then my brain has the audacity to scold me for copying you, like wtf? Yes I am gonna take the good life advice what is wrong with you? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h2m24s

rudepiece Hey Thor! I am co-hosting a themed hackathon in 2 weeks' time for about 120 people. Do you have any good pointers to ensure the best experience for the devs? The last one went well, but I'd love to make it even more epic for them. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h6m28s

JenoIce Hey thor megaman cat game guy here. I wanted to ask for advice on what you do when get a game dev road block. I seem to get stuck in a loop of I want to make this but i dont have a good plan for it or havent concept it out enough. it makes it harder when i try and stream dev work https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h17m38s

#

TaraskEskro Hello Thor, like many I would like to thank you for your inspiration and motivation to create game. I have always wanted to ask what you would think about this game concept: basically WoW or any MMORPG raid fight but turned into a tactical turn based RPG. I always loved making strategy back in Vanilla WoW and I'm trying to make this feeling back again in a single player game. Thank you, and remember chat, you all lost the game. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h18m46s

#

heliosdrive Evening again. Fun stuff: My drink bottle got nicked last week while I was at my Graveyard shift. Some drunkard came up to my work Buggy while I was leafblowing pathways, threw some of the contents to the floor & stole my bottle. Then he set a fire in one of the council bins next to a bus stop & buggered off. Curse my employer's no pursuit policy; I would've flattened him with the Buggy would it not have cost me my job. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h23m10s

#

highlord83 I should thank you, Thor. Listening to you finally got me off my ass and moving on an important project, consequences be damned. Myself and around 100 of my coworkers have put our signatures down to begin unionization in the face of crushing hours, low pay, and being ignored by management. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h24m16s

#

ArgentumEmperio I have a background in social studies analyzing society and stuff like that, but also an interest in tech and IT, and I want to combine these things. And whenever I bring this up to anyone, hacking and security is always brought up - do you have any idea as to why, and how would you combine sociology/societal studies and tech/IT? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h24m38s

#

Goreloche Hey, Gob Emperor Thor. I was wondering if you had any advice on how to think and problem solve like a game dev for a beginner. Like how do you decide on or even figure out what method to try for problem solving something. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h27m20s

#

heliosdrive To clarify, the tinbum drunkard stole my custom-engraved Yeti bottle gifted from my parents for Christmas (which given the wear & tear on it, he probably would've gotten less for than the loose change in the Buggy cup holders that he didn't steal). Ultimately, it's not the end of the world. I'm just more incensed that he also switched off my Buggy's headlights; that tells me he was also playing silly buggers & thought himself a comedian. That's what gets you a flattening down under. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h28m38s

#

GreyRellik Hey Thor, do you happen to have any examples of a more general GDD structure? The gamejam sample is a bit confusing to me, and I hope for more examples to get a better feel of the common practices for it, even though I'm not personally interested in a gamejam at this time. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h29m20s

#

TheMaydayMan Hey Thor! Love all your content, you're a huge role model and inspiration to me. What do you think about DigiPen? I'm a hobbyist dev right now, but I might enter the games industry, I might also go into other computer science jobs, might make my own indie studio, I'm not super sure right now. My other idea is Colorado school of MINES. By the way, since the brain is a muscle, you can only go fully limp once. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=3h29m56s

#

YamsDev I had an idea to release a pay what you want game (with a minimum price of free) and then having links to purchase the assets in asset packs on the download page and somewhere in game.

papanatsuri yarrCheer500 Hi mr Jason Thor, A while ago I mentionned I was learning Japanese Kanjis. Well I'm done now with 2200 Kanjis in my head ! You did not do this, I Did this. But you were with me almost everyday through the grind and for that I'm grateful, so Thank you. Also I have been secretly feeding bread to the mods while you were away and you lost the game.

Genda1ph The dwarf bread was brought out for inspection. But it was miraculous, the dwarf bread. No one ever went hungry when they had some dwarf bread to avoid. You only had to look at it for a moment, and instantly you could think of dozens of things you'd rather eat. Your boots, for example. Mountains. Raw sheep. Your own foot. Can we feed it to the mods? yarrCheer500 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=4h37m28s

PotaJoe1 Hey Thor, I've been working on a game for about a year and over the last 6 or so months I've been having this complete unshakeable block when it comes to level design specifically.

superryan94 Hey Thor, I recently started teaching myself programming in C++. After learning the basics (do an if sample, do a for loop sample, ect.) I decided to copy a cardgame in a big MMO to learn how to string everything together, and also why I need to use different things in different places. What is your opinion on copying a game like that? Also, sorry for my rude remark on hacking vs stealing accounts the other day. I though stealing and hacking were distinctly different disciplines. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=5h8m28s

I had an interview with EA which I asked about the Apex Legends Destroyer situation and now I'm a QA tester for the game. I wanted to ask you, have you seen a free steam game called May's Journey? It's a puzzle game that teaches you about game programming. If you would like to check it out. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=6h8m4s

chausk Hello Thor, Lord of Games and Goblins. My dream game is a 3D MMO where players use a Lua-like language to create and trade custom wizard spells. I also have some simpler game ideas in mind to make first as stepping stones. Is it best to create those simpler games in the same engine or diversify with different engines to reach my goal? Second, which engine do you think is best for my dream game? I need something that can handle potentially wild custom code from many players at once. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=9h52m24s

HugoTNMilan YarrCheer500 Tremble with fear, the monthly French Fun fact is here. In france, video and games makers may ask for government subventions through the Centre national du cinéma et de l'image animée, or CNC. This help finance a lot of projects and studios.

TheDinosaurDave - Just for curiosity sake. I am looking at making a guessing game where you guess an extinct animal, and it draws the tree of life up until the last common classification between the correct answer and the guess. I want it to show all previous guesses on their own branches of the tree. Slowly it grows out to a massive tree with branches and things. What kind of program would you suggest to learn to make something like that? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=10h18m8s

#

Comet_Omega Thor, should I have any concerns about being an adult artist in the aspiring game-dev field? I don't want to make a game that is NSFW, but I worry people will have issues with me using that account to advertise my games, or even that my community will complain that it ISN'T NSFW, rather than the opposite. I have a decently large community (~30 thousand followers), am I worrying too much? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=10h23m17s

Yodasean33 yarrCheer500 Hey Thor, how much do you know about the Sound and Lighting fields of theatre?

GoblinsandGunslingers Hey Thor I think Gunz the Duel should still be around, hand cramps and all. Just wanted to let you know that my card game, Goblins and Gunslingers, has been alpha tested, and I’m excited to send you a few booster packs. The same people who make Settlers of Catan are handling the booster packs. Is there a way I can send you a few? I might also have an alpha book of the RPG to go with it if you’re interested. And did you know Scarlett Johansson played https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=11h8m57s

ByteHammer Since you mentioned GunZ, here's the embarrassing story about how my friend group started. I was playing GunZ. I was very young, and not very good, but I was having a good round and talked a lot of shit. I remembered the guy who I beat and happened to see him a week later in another round. Naturally, I talked a ton of shit. But, he had learned the mystical art of K-styling and "butterfly", and whooped my ass. He invited me to Teamspeak, and we've been friends for almost 20 years. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=11h12m6s

galazym32 Hey Thor, I just wanted to share that you are now breaking through the education scene. My professor was giving us a lecture on respecting computers/devices and in turn our craft.

PindaPower Loving your advise, positivity and ‘who made you this way’. Got professional help with loneliness after COVID. I have DnD question. In my group someone mentioned that he is losing fun in our sessions. He likes the lore, but I am struggling with it. Fighting/dungeon crawler moments are not the problem. How can I improve as a beginner player, to be better at lore? I am trying other ways of taking notes and making thumbnails to help myself to not forget things. Thank you, ‘lekker bezig!’ https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193039166?t=11h37m21s

makla_nalek Hi there Thor and chat. Somewhat of a depressing subject, but I wanted to say it. Long story short, my uncle was diagosed with an extremely violent, rapid form of lung cancer. It is only caused by smoking, there is no other way of getting it whatsoever. It would be easier to describe where the cancer ISN'T versus where it is. It's everywhere. So for everybody here that smokes; quit. The relief it provides you isn't worth the pain it will cause you. The pain of quitting doesn't compare. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193886893?t=4h23m6s

It will replace traditional DnD roles with game dev roles, like programmer, artist, musician, etc. How do you think I should balance the scrum master class?

MrMaros0 Hello Thorce of Nature. I already talked about the failure of Tribes 3, but I really wanted to clarify why I'm so mad about it. Yes the game didn't have a lot of players at launch, but it never felt like it was meant for success. The game had no marketing, was a carbon copy of Tribes Ascend with one fifth of the content, most of the art was AI generated and corrected by an artist, and so were the concept arts. Their excuse is that the game was too expensive to run and cost 3 million $ https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193886893?t=5h10m55s

But, in the meantime, I've found another massively critical vulnerability. I've reported it as well. Here's hoping it gets fixed soon. To reiterate my question from before: are there any good guidelines on how to write good public disclosure blog posts after these are all patched?

reznas after 1000 hours in overwatch 2 and dozens of awful patches, i finally requested to have my battle net account deleted. i'm not under the impression that doing this will make any difference - this is more so encouragement to people like me who put hundreds/thousands of hours into a game they don't even have fun playing anymore. learn to let go. the silver lining for me is that now i have ample time to explore other games and start my own game development journey! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193886893?t=9h34m0s

chausk Good morning Thor. I was the guy yesterday with the MMO game idea where players script and trade their own spells in Lua. Your response was useful, but you didn’t actually answer my questions. If someone has a complex dream game, as well as several other smaller game ideas in mind to make first, is it best to master one engine for all of them, or is it good to diversify with multiple engines? Which engine would be powerful enough for my dream game? Thanks for what you do, love you bro. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2193886893?t=9h42m55s

I'm a long time Guild Wars 2 player and I forgot how most MMOs are so static and sort of easy. It's a shame most MMOs that try unique dynamic mechanics like Guild Wars 2 are often burdened by bad monetization practices and die pretty quickly. I want more original and unique MMOs like Global Agenda for example. Or better, a competitor to Planetside 2. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=2h20m56s

Previously, we started at 2PM CDT, I think we do that again! (Noon for Thor!) Whjat say you chat? Thor, can we get a discord announcement?! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=2h50m11s

rimaxolotl Greeting Lord of Goblins, Sage of the ferret tribe, Apostolate of Chaos, Destroyer of V-tubers, Grower of grass that is just trees. Today at my job the Server room fueling both east and west coast operations decided it wanted to become a Sauna. It got up to 120 Degrees Freedom units; we crushed the server rooms dream and it now the spirit of the server room remain calm and chilled. Thank you for growing grass for the Vtubers, they need it https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=2h50m55s

FiraxisGlow Hi Thor, I hope you've recovered from the con plague. I am here to inform you that the package I told you about at Premiercon is now delivered to the PO Box according to USPS. Also I cast, at the cost of 6 braincells, collective stroke. Now all the goblins, including mods, smell toast. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=2h51m45s

l_5050 Hello Thor, it is I, the french bread wizard. Enjoy your daily dose of french bread. Also do you have any advice for breaking artists block? A close friend of mine is really struggling with it right now https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=2h53m25s

Blizzazz Dear Thor it is I the bread wizard once again here to cast bread based magic so your mods have fresh bread. It warmed my heart last stream that a French bread wizard joined the fight to give your mods fresh bread. Soon Bread Wizards all over the world will join spells so your mods are fed. Have some Brioche blasts and some Fougasse fireballs for our French Bread Wizard friends! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=3h25m15s

AnImmortalMortal Does anyone else have that moment where they're just staring at their IDE desperate to code something but not knowing what to code, so they're just looking at empty infinite potential. also a beef wellington is just a fancy corndog. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=3h43m22s

#

themightyphill Hey thor, so im in a MC RP server with dwarves. their religion is that their god morkith made them, but hes evil, so they hate him and try to kill him by being honourable and believe they can fist fight him when they die, and the more honourable and skilled you were, the buffer you get https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=3h45m29s

#

DryBonesMalone Good Morning Thor, its been a little since my last TTS. May i have some advice? recently my brothers cat had kittens, they were left outside and neglected- upon seeing this, i took all 5 and them and the mom home with me. now they are healthy and bigger, but i may have to send 2 or more to a shelter. I found a "no Kill" shelter, but i feel like crap from having to let them go...Anything i should consider, its been heavy on my heart and mind, thank you Thor https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=3h46m7s

#

Game_on_John Hey Thor, it's the guy you inspired to start streaming. Loved meeting you at TwitchCon! Here's an update: I attended the Creator Camp at TwitchCon, learned a lot, and changed my streaming habits. However, I ended up losing viewership. At some point, I found a community member in another stream asking when I'd be playing my regular games again, and since then, my viewership has picked back up. I'm still grinding and working on it. Looking for a mod now (paying ofc) any tips? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=3h47m14s

#

Ender_Onryo Hey Thor, you have been an absolute gem in the darkness and have done so many wonderful things for your community and the internet. Helping us to do so many things that would not have been feasible otherwise. Feasible, not possible. Maybe we could have done it without you, but if chemistry has taught me anything it's that having a catalyst makes achieving a reaction much easier. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=3h49m16s

#

Ender_Onryo Hey Thor, I wanted to say thank you for ruining my life. You are gonna be playing Fez soon and so I played it first to not be spoiled by the stream. So I played Fez and then I played Tunic and now I am playing The Talos Principle and someone please help there aren't enough puzzles. I find them and then I solve them and then I have no more. And I need more, there are never enough I need my puzzle high. So sorry for the next couple TTS being me rambling about my thoughts and questions. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=3h50m32s

#

Ender_Onryo 1 of 4 Are there any real world applications for Stenography? So far the only places I have seen it used are in puzzle game type scenarios. Which I suppose have real world use in the sense that they help you get better at logic and occasionally take a peak into new fields for the puzzles that require pre existing understanding on stuff. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=3h52m42s

#

Ender_Onryo 2 of 4 I noticed something interesting, my ADHD brain wants constant feedback. Either reward or punishment. So when I eventually get to the types of puzzles that require me to sit down and manually translate pages and pages of text all interest is immediately out the window. Would you have any strats or advice on how to stay engaged with something you actively care about, whilst being sabotaged by your subconscious? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=3h54m37s

#

slylycan Hey Thor! I run custom modpacks for my family and was looking for an easier way to handle updating them for my family. Do you have any recommendations on how to begin looking into how to automate it so I don't have to manually update each person. Most are using steam decks and it takes a substantial amount of time. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=3h57m44s

#

Ender_Onryo 3 of 4 So far in my puzzle experience I do everything I can until I get stuck. Then I ask for a couple hints because maybe it's just a particular puzzle type i have issues with, I repeat that until I actually get stuck with things I am not smart enough to figure out or simply don't have the pre existing understanding to understand. Then I look up the answers for the rest and study them so I can apply the info to the next game. So far I have learned at least 1 thing from each game. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h7m24s

#

XiY3n Sorry about the previous message, hit enter too soon. What I meant to say was when developing a game that takes inspiration from an abandonware game, would it make sense to try and buy or somehow acquire the abandoned IP, or make something truly original? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h8m19s

#

Ender_Onryo 4 of 4 A while ago I tried streaming and couldn't get myself to do the thing, I realized because I like a thing that doesn't mean I want to do it myself. I recently started streaming my blind runs of puzzle games and I'm having a blast. So maybe don't take the first realization, there could always be more nuance. I think I was just streaming the wrong thing. Or maybe trying to stream for the wrong reasons. Now I'm just doing it for fun with the potential future money being a bonus. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h9m14s

#

Ender_Onryo Unrelated to the puzzle games but one thing I really like about this TTS system is that not only can we get your advice on life or software problems, we can also just share stories with Chat in the hopes that one in the 10,000 might find it funny or learn from our experience. So this one goes out to you in chat. Yes you, no not the others, just you. You know who I am pointing at. Ok, this was my last TTS for today, so you don't have to worry about me randomly popping up later. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h10m38s

#

nmg_twitch Hey Thor! I'm the security researcher from earlier. Follow-up question about writing blog posts on exploits post-patch: are there any guidelines on how much detail to go into? I've noticed that may other security researchers, when blogging about exploits, tend to keep things vague and/or only post partial proof-of-concept code. I would assume that's to avoid any script-kiddies taking code in the blog post and hacking unpatched systems. Do I have a moral obligation to be similarly vague? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h12m33s

#

suboptimal_perfection Hey thor, last week i had asked about using the steam game Robo Maestro for the game jam and was wondering if you ever made a decision about that. And thank you for all you do, inspiring everyone to go make video games https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h14m31s

#

juggernautky yarrCheer500 Hey Thor! Happy Birthday! I have signed up for the game jam, I have been practicing making various things in different tools, engines, etc. I’m not going into the jam thinking I’ll win, but I’m going to do my best and that’s all! Anyone that wants to should most certainly sign up and try! I’ve heard you say many times and I totally agree that you only fail if you don’t move forward, so join the jam…learn…try! Thor, you and this community rock! keep up the great work! Thanks! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h21m29s

#

Artsy_Jinx Hiya there Goblin lord!!!! It took some doing but I was finally able to create an Offbrand games account and linked Heartbound to it. Really wish heartbound hadn’t cost so much so I still gotta save up to buy the demo to try it first. When does the Subscription service begin and will it be the standard $14.99? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h22m48s

#

cake_june Hi Thor! I’m so happy to be here. With the upcoming game jam, i have a group together but we all have different coding disciplines. if we’re thinking of making a 2D horizontal platformer, which engine or language do you recommend we use? thank you so much! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h23m18s

#

mshroomy Hello Thor, I'm planning on resigning my current job but am scared shitless to do so after hearing horror stories from my friends about managers and bosses gaslighting them to stay and some even returning their letters to their desk, do you have any advice on how to be assertive yet not burn any bridges when telling my boss about resigning. Thanks again, also I bought the demo, best $77777 I ever spent yarrBongos yarrCheer500 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h30m14s

#

TimesXII yarrCheer500 Good Morning Thor. So much to do this month. Between Tenno Con, Your Game Jam, and Bitcraft, I feel a bit stretched thin. Still, loving every bit of what I can do. For my question today, have you heard of Darth Throngus's Apprentice, Yarr Chogen? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h38m41s

#

Potatohedron Hey Thor, some context first and then a question: In the Assetto Corsa community, there is some controversy over 3rd party controller scripts that aid the player in controlling the virtual race car. Supporters believe these scripts help narrow the gap between gamepad and steering wheel users, but detractors say the assists are too strong and have access to game data they shouldn't have. My question is, how do you draw the line between assist and cheat? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h39m3s

#

Fae_viking_princess There is an idea of a Thor; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real Thor: only an AI, something illusory. And though he can hide his cold gaze, and we can shake his hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable... he simply am not there. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h41m14s

#

braxbro Do you have any advice for dealing with perfectionism & executive dysfunction? Right now, I'm a small Factorio modder, but I want to actually move into game development proper. I want to learn art, music, etc. so I'm not just The Idea Guy that can Code, but getting myself to do the learning is a royal pain... https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h42m32s

#

dr_observer8 Hi Thor, I need some advice. I grew up in a bad place and have been poor for most of my life. However, a few years ago, I started working as a self-employed individual in finance and began earning good money. Now, I'm stuck in a weird place. It's hard for me to stay motivated since I am very frugal, and my current savings could support me for several years. I don't have anyone depending on me, but I am constantly afraid of becoming extremely poor again and can't really rest. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h44m28s

#

Fae_viking_princess I have all the characteristics of a human being: blood, flesh, skin, hair; but not a single, clear, identifiable emotion, except eepy or extra eepy. Something exhausting is happening inside of me and I want to nap. My nightly eepiness has overflown into my days. I feel lethargic, on the verge of frenzy. I think my mask of sanity is about to slip. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h48m14s

#

Fae_viking_princess Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing.. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h49m10s

#

cyan_rileshard yarrCheer500 As someone with rather active ADHD, I want to start learning to make games. I find it difficult to learn new skills beyond the basics, or at least what I assume are the basics. Do you have any advice or tips to push my motivation in the right direction? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=4h54m56s

#

liam764478 hey thor sorry for looking dumb last time with once human by asking about france i have an anxiety disorder and become worried for nothing very quickly anyways last time i talked about kane pixels backrooms and you didn't know what it was it's an analog horror series about the backrooms and it's pretty original ang very good i think you'd like it not asking to react on stream i don't think you do react anyways https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=5h1m4s

#

GreyRellik You brought up optional seasonal resets earlier, where you can either start over for a new season or keep going on a permanent character. Funnily enough, a game I've been playing does exactly this, and just started a new season. It's Torchlight Infinite. If anyone here likes loot-based dungeon crawlers, or games with modular ability systems, I'd say give it a shot. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=5h16m30s

#

Gordon_Ramzes Hello, Thor. For quite a while I am stumbling upon your shorts and thoughts in them, you clearly learned a lot throughout your life. Do you have any wisdom on how to handle self-gaslighting? Let me explain. I consider making a game that will tell stories I have, but... I fear that I am so far behind with skillset (I can't write code or create sounds a lt all) that I will never keep up and will never manage to release something that people could enjoy https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=5h20m4s

#

dr_observer8 Hey Thor, I saw the end of the movie yesterday and couldn't relate more to your frustration with dealing with people trying to invalidate or tarnish your achievements. I just wanted to send you a virtual hug and reassure you that the legacy you are building will echo through the ages. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=5h22m42s

DrTrolls yarrCheer500 thoughts on destiny 2 upping everyone's power level after a milestone or when they want to push the story? I feel like that takes away the sense of accomplishment of getting there yourself. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=5h23m54s

#

enasni2713 I'm having issues with balancing work fun and my projects. I work 40 hours a week. My one day offs are spent on errands. Play d and d probably more then I should every other weekend. Spending time with friends. Deescalateing from work is a big thing and my projects end up getting almost no time. How would you balance these things. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=5h34m55s

#

Cipherftw Holy shit! Yall are bring daily does of Thor on to the team! That makes me happy. I noticed them a while ago and reported them to the evil bread stealing mods and was told 'we know and we're dealing with it thanks!' and was honestly expecting them to get smited. Good on you Thor. This is why I love you. Keep being amazing. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=5h38m48s

jetkoala1 Good Morning Thor and Goblins, here from the cloudy UK, My question for you is what are your thoughts on Drupal? My workplace put me for a project working with Drupal and the Web Dev Team with potential movement onto the team which is a nice move from 1/2nd line I suppose. Thank you for all the work you do and everyone have a great day! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=5h39m24s

#

engineering_stephen Yarr Hey Thor I'm excited to participate in the game jam but I won't lie it's pretty intimidating not having any experience with art, music, coding, etc. But I'm eager to learn and I think I'd enjoy doing all of those. Also I'm having trouble finding a team unsure if it's because of my inexperience https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=5h48m49s

#

the115zombi Hi hi, this is my first time joining your stream since I mostly watch you from YouTube shorts. Quick question about that talk you had with the devs. Was there any talk about allowing players to change their characters gender even after the character creation? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=5h52m20s

#

light21212 Hey Thor, my friends and I made a game for a game competition with some unique ideas and mechanics. We are preparing to upload the game to Steam after fully completing the game, but I just found out recently that someone took the idea and copied it to another game competition with the same idea and the same name for the mechanics. What should I do? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=6h10m34s

project_niz I'm currently taking a break from working on my first game, to get ready to join your game jam as a solo dev and making own assets. I'm currently working on an RPG game using the 5e Framework and the Cthulhu Mythos, where Nyarlathotep breaks the fourth wall and plays as your DM. Back in February you inspired me, an AuADHD 40 year old dealing with workplace burn out, to venture and make my own Fart Hotel. I can't wait for you to check out my work! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=6h27m8s

bradgon_something yarrCheer500 Hello Thor,if I'm sending this it means I passed the final exam.Now in the previous tts I asked if I can ask a favour.If you don't want to ,you may close the tts.Now if you let the tts go, the favor I'm talking about is for the dragon mod I'm working.For context I'm learning making textures for the dragons and in the future I want to make custom textures for them.The favor is:can I make a custom skin of you on a dragon?.It can either be cursed or normal, you choose. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=6h27m49s

#

Cyclonic_Flame So I attempted to get a diagnosis for ADHD, only to find out that my country has no interest or infrastructure to treat adult ADHD by itself. Turns out that not only do you have to have some pretty serious comorbidities to even get it treated as a secondary treatment, but getting seen on the public system is both a very long wait time and several thousand dollars. The horrors persist, and so do I. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=6h32m24s

#

himjim_ Hey Thor, I've been struggling to find motivation for just about anything non work related. Decision making as a supervisor is taxing but I still always go the extra mile and put in maximum effort at work but as soon as I get home I just want to turn my brain off and do nothing. This leads to me neglecting chores in my home and avoiding games that require critical thinking and strategy. Do you have any advice for overcoming this? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=6h44m31s

#

Shadwenn Howdy Thor, an important question: I want to create content about making games and in the future to make a living out of it, but I am in a dilemma. I don't know if I should create content in my native language, which here in Romania is not a well-developed subject, but I fear that it will not have a big enough audience, or if I should make it in English, where I can help more people, but there is also more competition https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=6h56m6s

TimesXII I've got something that I think you'll find amazing and it's dropping in seven days. The Forever Winter. It's a game where war has become an ecosystem, and instead of you playing as That Guy, the one who is the protagonist hero or such; instead you're the Scav who is just trying to survive. It's being made by Fun Dogs Studios. Link here: https://www.fundogstudios.com https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=7h11m1s

mudringer Greetings from Slovakia. I have been watching you for some time and would like to thank you for what you are doing. I would like to ask one question: I am a civil engineer and know nothing about programing. I would like to make a 2D pixelart RPG game and learned a bit of C# and cannot decide which way go next. Monogame, Godot or Gamemaker. I like Godot workflow but Monogame seems more free and gamemaker seems better for porting. Thank you for your thoughts. and have a nice day. ^_^ https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=7h14m52s

#

LordLambert_ Chee Hey Thor and chat, my 8 year old son who has autism has started getting into a program called Scratch, which is made by M.I.T, made for kids to get into coding, and he's trying to make a game. I think this is super cool, but this all goes way over my head as I'm a bit neurodivergent myself. What is the best way I can support my son with him getting into game design? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=7h24m13s

Comet_Omega Hello again Thor! I am returning once more to tap the well that is your game-development knowledge, if you don't mind. In just the past few days, I've gotten a movement system hashed together for my game, and I was wondering if you could give it a spin and toss me some criticism? I would love to know your thoughts, as you've revived my love for coding and learning to code. Either way, would it be okay to post the current build in the Discord? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=7h29m59s

#

judge_freak yarrCheer500 This is a joke: In las vegas, there are more catholic churches than casinos. Not surprisingly, some worshippers at Sunday services will give casino chips rather than cash when the basket is passed. Since they get chips from many different casinos, the churches have devised a method to collect all the offerings, then send all the chips to a nearby Franciscan monastery for sorting, and then the chips are taken to the casinos of origin and cashed in. This is done by the chip monks. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=7h34m3s

judge_freak yarrCheer500 But on a more non-joke note; thank you for everything you do, using your platform to make things and make the world better.

Mr_Sashimi_Sushi And so he appears, for a split second out of the corner of your eye if only to stroke your long, brown hair clipping it behind the lobe of your ear and begins to whisper, “Hello Father… I’ve returned to reclaim what once departed from my soul. I had sipped the cringe from the cursed gemerald once and now I lust for it’s powers like a pitbull craving the flesh of the juvenile! Though, I shall prevail!” https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=8h1m32s

galazym32 Hey Thor! I am a college student and going to school for Game Design. This month we are working in teams to add assets and complete bug reports from levels we created previously. However, my team is not very great at communicating, despite the daily stand up meetings we do. With the game jam coming up do you have tips for working in teams effectively? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=8h6m9s

YourSandbox !TTS Sir, I recently started following you and you, as a veteran in gamedev industry, if it's possible, can you check my weapon system showcase I made for the top down game I'm making and hear some critics.

nexusforge yarrCheer500 hi Thor, I’m glad to be here, I was wondering if it would be appropriate to stream to twitch while I’m learning and going through tutorials to make my game. you’ve inspired me in more than just a couple ways. also, I cast Itchy bones. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=8h12m55s

scratch77777 Keep Developing Small Games! I took up GMS and followed Shaun Spalding's platformer tutorial. Then built Simon (The game from the 90s) and then I went back to make a fresh new platformer off an idea I had and built the whole thing in 4 hours without asking a single question. The GMS discord is great and shout out to Geoff especially. Keep making small games, and I'll see you in the Jam! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=8h15m33s

Neveroh yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 hi thor, i know you most likely get asked this a lot, but how do I get out of tutorial hell? I've been learning unreal and just feel like all of these tutorials are bad examples of what to do because a lot of it is just super buggy, never polished. I know I need to branch off and do my own thing but I feel stuck. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2195564831?t=8h17m18s

evetheaussiedev G'day Thor! Thanks heaps for your ongoing advice! I am the team leader for a games project. Everyone is super talented much more then me! I feel intimidated guiding them.

SuprChikn did you hear about the vulture that tried to board a commercial flight with two dead animals, one under each wing? They were stopped by the flight attendant who said "sorry, only one carrion per passenger." I looked through all of my messages in the answered TTS channel earlier. Including this one, to date it seems there have been ten that involved a joke of some sort. I guess I'd hoped that at least one would elicit even a slight smile, however I checked the vods and, no pun in ten did https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=0h19m44s

BFM_Deadlock22 Cheer100Hey Thor do you remember last week you allowed me to give the mods some greggs through my tip to them? What happens when the mods do get bread? Cause you allowed them to have the greggs and as i am a greggs manager i made sure there was some ham and cheese baguettes in that greggs delivery. How nice of you to let the mods have bread from greggs as you said they were allowed the greggs. Thank you goblin king https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=0h35m2s

RefractalStudios Hi Thor, I’ve been putting in a lot of work on my first Steam game and I was wondering if you could provide your thoughts on the Steam page? I could use an outside perspective on its current state as I can only be so critical when I’m so close to it. The game is called Broad Sword. I’m also looking forward to the game jam. Thanks for putting it together! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2581120/Broad_Sword/ YarrCheer500 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=0h35m43s

blindedbyscience83 Good morning Thor, glad to see that you are feeling better. Let's the start the day off right with some cursed knowledge: The phrase 'big dick energy' has the same syllable count and cadence as 'this is Halloween' from The Nightmare Before Christmas. Good luck getting that out of your head. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=0h44m2s

Squeeble02 Hi Thor, been watching for a long time, and you've been a fantastic motivating factor in my life. It's been my dream to make games since I was 10 years old, and it's the reason I got into coding. In my 20 years of coding I've never been so stuck. I've tried asking for help in several discords, including yours, and even posted on StackOverflow, but nobody seems to know how to fix my problem. I've been stuck for three months, and it's seriously affecting my motivation. Any advice? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=1h23m52s

MrMaros0 Hello Need Thor Speed. I am so happy to have talked about Global Agenda yesterday. Seeing your reaction, beaming with nostalgia and hype for this old game that I loved and missed made me giddy and smile immensly, and kept that big happy smile on my face for the rest of the morning. I have a shitty job and a pretty weird life, I don't remember the last time I smiled so much for so long, sharing games that I love brings me so much joy. But now we must do one thing. #BringBackGlobalAgenda https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=1h25m41s

#

JocoShade Hi Thor, one of the things you've mentioned is that Heartbound is based on a comic that you conceptualized/wrote when you were in school. Would you say that developing aspects of a game in other forms of media, like comics, books, etc, can help when it comes to actually creating the game too? I think another time this was done was with George R R Martin and Elden Ring, but I can't think of any other examples. Also, do you have any fantasy/sci-fi books or comics that you'd recommend? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=1h27m56s

SpiderJayLink Thor, I know you've told us not to buy the demo, but these streams are more or less a "demonstration" (demo for short) of how to make a game, so technically, anyone who has donated to the stream has bought the demo yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 yarrCheer100 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=2h26m47s

I've tried to report it but the TOS doesnt seem to cover stolen games, what do you think I can do to help? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=2h54m52s

ChrisLocality I want to build a frontend application for myself for how I view my budgets and I wanted to stream building it to learn and share my thoughts.

Bernard2067 Hello Mr Goblin Lord I have just started making my first simple clicker game and my plan was to implement something where the user can collect different cats that would wander about on the screen and be cute n stuff but after the banana game on steam im not sure if I should just make it a simple idle clicker and leave it at that or if I should go forward with the original idea? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=4h6m59s

#

nmg_twitch hey thor! thank you for you response to me earlier about responsible disclosure! you gave me a lot to think about. To note, the vulnerabilities I found are in a piece of local software. So a patch's success would depend on users installing updates. And getting percentages on who does is basically impossible, as the vendor doesn't say, and also has measures in place that trip up any third party market research. I might just wait several months after the patch before I release any info. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=4h12m1s

#

gemin_face yarrCheer500 Hey, Chat. I heard something from Dr. K (Healthy Gamer GG) that seemed worth a TTS share. Here’s what Dr. K said. So, there’s even some evidence that when we look at the stress diathesis model of illness, what it presumes is that illness is the result of an environment plus a genetic risk. It’s not even that something is objectively wrong with you. It’s that there is an environmental component to the manifestation of disease. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=4h30m38s

MasonBurnheart yarrCheer500 Hey Thor, I've been creating a free tool that helps indie devs with marketing on TikTok and YouTube Shorts by editing their gameplay automatically into handmade meme and trailer style designs no editing required.

Samevi yarrCheer500 Hey Thor, I've been inspired by your shorts to start attempting to develop a game, and I've got everything I need set up - problem is, I have no idea where to start with putting my ideas to words on a game design document.

#

gabetrashpanda He used to stream about a year and a half ago mostly for his grandmother who he was very close to, so that he could show off the work and joy he was getting from it since she was a very big inspiration for him to do streaming and stuff like performing arts. But she passed away a year and a half ago and since then it has become very hard for him to have the motivation to start streaming again due to him not having that moral backbone to show him that he is doing well enough to keep going https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=4h58m8s

ChookNoo Lord goblin, have you seen the most goblin simulator ever, Pizza Possum? The audio is so satisfying with its reactive music, jazz drums playing with the crazy hijinks.

Do you have any experience or advice on how to make reactive audio so entertaining and smooth? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=5h11m16s

visual_sanity 3, interesting cultural difference, a lot of stories had the idea of progressing science despite religious resistant, and that makes sense with history, but to us its the opposite, our religion tells us to dive into science and seek knowledge, so to us every fall and lack of scientific progress, was linked to either the lack of religion or extremism that goes against its purpose, to us religion and science are one https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=5h40m34s

Jon_b_a Hey Thor, i work in the IT department public administration in a city in germany with main focus on the administrative site while only little in coding (Which is ok due to the job guarentee and payment). While studying i focused on Web-Dev and loved that, but could not use it on the job. Thanks to your streams im finally using my days off again to deepen my webdev knowledge including app-coding and loving it again. Thanks so much for that! https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=6h26m4s

visual_sanity 4, the difference in the way of looking at god is also interesting, i notice god being represented with a powerful wise human, but to us god is beyond human comprehension, a singularity that can not be described, the only closest thing i found in literature to how we see it, is love craft, but that is portrayed as horror, while for us it is magnificent and brings awe, so to us, if a person comes in, revives the dead, split the seas, thats not god, but god granted that human such ability https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=6h31m54s

GoGoForIt_ Hey Thor! Your shorts renewed my motivation for game dev and I'm starting college this fall because of it. I'm very paranoid about online privacy though, and wanted to ask if a VPN is actually good enough to keep the college from seeing what I do on the internet while living in a dorm for the next 4 years. Is it? And if not, what are they even good for? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=7h37m9s

badpuppet Love the spirit of what you're doing my friend. I'm an actor - one the reasons is games, and you even convinced me to to look into cs50x, thanks for the sleepless night of implementing gravity, I think I'm getting some momentum in voice acting with a couple of mods and games so happy for that, sending love from Republic of Georgia, Caucasus mountain goblins stand armed and ready https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=7h57m33s

TheZeddle Hey Thor, ever since learning about the Pokemon Mini, I've got an obsession with the thought of creating my own game for it. But here is the problem. Resources for creating a game for this niche of a console aren't available. My question is: Can you recommend any sources for learning to a- code your own engine and b- code on software of ancient consoles. Maybe also some sources you think are good for learning and understanding the basics of Assembly. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=8h18m4s

NovaWolfe Good morning Thor. Since we're talking about Pathfinder, did you ever play or hear about Maximum XCrawl? It was my first ever D&D interaction and I've been hooked ever since.

Dmndbro This is my first stream and I am glad to catch your stream finally. I just wanted to say about the DnD discussion, a really funny thing a DM did to us once was build in the curse of the horse room. it just a room of horse shrine but as soon as you open the door once you and your party are cursed. Every door you open after this point you have a certain percentage to go back to the horse room. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=9h19m0s

CherryCheshireCat yarrCheer500 Thor, I have a friend that I tried teaching some Blender and gamedev things but he has severe ADHD. He has a hard time learning things and when I tried teaching him he was already clicking ta 1000 things before I had 2 words out on the next instruction and he didn't remember anything. I may not be the best teacher but I was hoping you had some smartness on how he can still learn gamedev stuff. He wants to learn more before we tackle this coming GameJam so he can do better. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=10h36m57s

SaltedCoffeee Worm regards. I know how to get your ironmouse. Grab a razer one, take it apart and have the shell lazer scanned. Now adjust it, remove lines etc. Have this printed out of steel. For we crave the certainty of steel. You can adjust the wieght by the volume provided by the scan. Then call mouse and bully razer into making it into an offcial product. the ironmouse series.

The_Celestial_Toast yarrCheer500 Hello Thor, I have been a fan for a while. I've watched a lot of shorts and caught a lot of streams, And I just want to say thank you. I've wanted to be a game dev since I was 5 years old and understood what games were. The last few years I've been in a really bad place mentally, but you have inspired me and I'm not gonna hold myself back anymore. I may not be ready for this game jam, but mark my words, I will learn all I can and you'll see me in January, this is my promise. <3 https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=11h9m7s

KSKArt Hey Thor, asking for more job advice. I was hired to be a sale rep, but with how HR implied, it was to be the VPs personal assistant. "Support them with tasks", "help them when overwhelmed", etc. Noped myself out real fast, but is there a way to go around that for the better? Or is it a lost cause? BTW, they promised me a different position in "near future", but did the bait-n-switch and only moved me once I stopped putting up with Sales Lead's bs emails. Thank you again for your wisdom https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2197274242?t=11h19m28s

rimaxolotl I would normally do a long list of titles my lord, but please forgive me as i pass this very important information for FFXIV. You can use macros to copy other jobs hotbars, which means you can use classes (Gladiator, marauder) as an ever changing hotbar that you can use to store other actions (emotes mounts, gear sets) and make a very neat UI that can disappear when you want it to.

MrMaros0 Hello Thord Focus. The other day I briefly mentionned Planetside 2. I've been playing this game on and off from time to time for years now, and I can't believe it's still so populated today. This game is awesome, I love FPS games and a massive scale FPS MMO is just the best idea anyone ever had. I know a game like this must be difficult to make, but I'm still shocked Planetside 2 hasn't had basically any competitors since its release. They're truly the only ones in their field. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198083976?t=0h45m36s

The single worst part of the experience was the lack of stimulation as there was no art on the wall, couldn't even look out a window from my room, and the routine of everything was just hard with my ADHD, but the place did actually help even though the experience wasn't the greatest. Also, make sure to check in on friends. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198083976?t=3h39m34s

GreyRellik So today I had an epiphany that while it isn't specifically games, I've actually been getting practice at working with Godot without even realizing it. I've been using it on occassion to try and set up small tools to assist in my art projects, such as color palette generators or interactive character refsheets. So while they aren't games, I've already managed to go from start to finish on coding various programs in Godot, and that makes me feel proud of myself. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198083976?t=3h50m22s

Holymerdy hey Thor, I have a question about copyright. Generally speaking, copyright generally lasts 70 years after the death of the creator or after the first year of publication.

JAMESTACORONTE yarrCheer500 Hello Greek Mythological Goblin Lord, did you know that it would take in between 90 and 101.25 Billion untouched oreos to reach the moon, at the average distance from the surface of the earth to the surface of the moon, it would be an approximated rate of 250,000 oreo cookies per kilometer. or in america terms, way too fucking many oreos per way too many fucking miles... i also cast the flood of sustenance, the basement fills with bread and water for the mods. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198083976?t=5h46m52s

grobanjosh for the upcoming gamejam, i got into a team of very experienced people and now i'm now so gut damn nervous about it. i'm still in a very early learning stage and worry i'd slow the team down. in your opinion, what kind of team should a pure beginner programmer join? should i look for people with similar skill levels as myself or is my current situation better? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198083976?t=5h54m13s

#

QFPro21 Yesterday you were talking about Last Oasis and why it died. As an avid player I can tell you my main reason for stopping was because of the overhaul that came with the travel update. In general it became harder to make and maintain progress. Crafting schematics became a lootable item rather than an unlock you got to keep. The travel changes made it so you had to park your walker in a base that decays over time making the game more like rust in that you can't take any time off. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198083976?t=6h5m21s

Unfortunately, due to my job location and team politics, (someone already anointed to do all data projects), I am unable to to learn and feel excluded.

dr_observer8 Morning Thor, need some advice. I work in finance and I have been struggling in not being constant ashmed of saying to anybody that I work with this, since my field is fulled with jackasses, scammers, pseudo gurus and people that just irks me.

There leader of the guild got banned for life (because it was his idea), while everyone else in the guild got suspended for a day.

TieflingUnshackled Hello Thor I recently was watching an interview with the ZZZ devs where they talked about wanting to reduce the TV's section of the game to zero in gameplay and have the hollos just be third person like Genshin. I personally hate the idea as it removes the dynamic between the proxy and agents and feels like ZZZ loses part of its identity.

MasonBurnheart Hi Thor, Yesterday, you mentioned that the marketing tool I'm developing should be better than Twitch's clip feature.

heliosdrive Here's a random funny I found out about Quake 2, specifically it's Makron final boss. I was always confused as to how it piloted its Jorg mech since you can see the Makron's legs hanging out the bottom. Looking at it closer, I realised that the Makron not so much piloting the suit as it is *riding* it, like, mounted on its back as if it were a horse. The Jorg's BFG attack is the suit raising its arm so the Makron fires a shot from behind it—such a cute & hilarious detail. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198952503?t=5h25m50s

TimesXII yarrCheer500 Alright, Last TTS of the day. This one is a blockgame question that I think is fairly important to address. Don't worry about it now, but definitely try to see what you can do and actually try to have us test sieges. Starting off, there is no reason to go to war. You do not gain war supplies from conquered towns, and War Tokens are only used to start wars. You said it yourself during a past TTS of mine. People in MMOs go to war for resources. No resources, no war. Solutions? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198952503?t=5h38m0s

lestricon yarrCheer1000 Seeing your escape room short reminds me. One of my dream games is prohibitively expensive. I worked for an experience design firm.

This would be more like Eve / Bridge simulator + Battletech Chicago. Interactive cockpit + community stories + themed areas for LARP adventures. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198952503?t=5h39m38s

blakethesnake Hey Thor, I've been cooking on a creature for my D&D campaign. Think of a kangaroo. It stands upright at 8 feet tall and weighs 530 pounds; it walks with an eerily human gait. They have forward facing eyes like a predator and a flat face also like a human's. Psych! This was real animal from Pleistocene Australia called Procoptodon goliah, or the Giant Kangaroo. Have fun with this knowledge; Australian megafauna were absolutely cursed in the Pleistocene. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198952503?t=5h47m35s

TheGeekno72 Bonjour Mr Thor, Happy Birthday to his Gobliness ! If you're considering what kinda birthday cake to get, might I recommend a staple from my homeland : the Paris Brest. It is a delicious bike wheel shaped pastry that is widely loved on my side of the pond, maybe there's a French bakehouse around your location you might acquire this delicacy at ? Also, do you think Twitch will make you a second record breaking emote if we make it to 110 ? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198952503?t=5h49m4s

mrgooey_ Feela like I had a question. Or a request. I struggle to explain myself well and usually misunderstand what is said to me. I get wrapped up in my own brain. It's like the puzzle maker explaining the puzzle. Getting help. Social eviroment therapist. I'm scared aa hell https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198952503?t=5h54m23s

YaBoyKrls Hey Thor, I'm a beginner in coding and learning c++ as of now. I'm understanding all the rules around the syntax of the language but actually writing and reading the code is where I'm struggling, any advice? https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2198952503?t=6h18m11s
