    Oh, just in case it wasn't abundantly clear at the end there, I meant *my video* was a little old, not Snipperclips the game. I still very much love Snipperclips!

    7:29 yup, those are the kind of faces that I would expect someone to make when their first project as a new studio turned out to be a BAFTA winner.

    Their story is so inspiring! Just two folks putting all their heart into their first game which lands them a BAFTA? That's gamedev goals right here.
    Thanks for the superb video!

    Or, how a small studio created the most infuriating and friendship-ending game ever.

      I play it with the whole family (or at least 4 at a time) and it's hilarious and great. I have one kid who mostly just tries to mess with the other team.

    I was playing this with my cousin on his pc recently. And we were both laughing our asses off because we were slapping rats trying to steal our food. And then proceeding to put the filthy food back on the plates and handing it to customers.
    Not sanitary, but great fun for a while

    Hey, this one I have a story with! So...after that one E3 where Overcooked 2 was announced, I decided to try out the original, which was now on sale on the eShop. I downloaded it and began playing on my own, as I'm mostly a single-player game person. Soon I realized later levels were pretty much unfeasible on my own, and sheepishly asked other people to help out. Eventually, I managed to gather a few friends together and we gave it a shot. It was super fun! Nowadays, I want to keep playing it, but I haven't had the luck to get enough people together to keep progressing, but I'm still looking.

    The best part about the game is it dynamic difficulty. It's really well done as single player and multiplayer are almost different games.

    I'll never forget that time I realized I could throw food on the ground in the first game by building up momentum and then dropping it. I laughed my ass off at the prospect of making people eat this but when your kitchen splits in half at the drop of a hat you gotta make some sacrifices.

    Overcooked is literally the best offline multiplayer game i've ever played EVER! It requires a lot of coordination and there is a good story about it. You can literally play 2p 3p 4p on the campaign mode for some help! I also played Overcooked 2 which was great as well, but somewhat confusing for me,

    I remember playing it when I was little with my mom and sister. We I wouldn't really go too far just because I would always throw the ingredients around because I thought it was funny and I don't know I was dumb lol, But they would always yell at me to stop. this day I do not know why XD

    I really like Overcooked, and it's origin story is pretty much what I thought it'd be, but I am a bit sad the difficulty curve hit me as hard as it did. I've yet to beat the game because star collection gets really hard later on and stage gimmicks get really oppressive.

    • @radical_dog
      @radical_dog 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I agree with this! I need a team of all-stars to get the requirements later, and put simply, I don't have friends who are that good at the game!

      The last expansions of Overcooked 2 were pretty brutal. The seaside levels were hard for my husband and me to do co op. Impossible with little kids.

  • @bearvillebear1468

    Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the struggles in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love.
    Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans
    . The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom.
    If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us back into that previously perfect image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. He will help us through the struggle, the stress, and anything we experience in the world. It's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him through His power (not ourselves, we need Him to help us as it's impossible without depending on His power and instruction).
    He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if you had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place.
    He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it.
    He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way.
    Christ says in John 16:33: I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace. In the world you have tribulation and distress and suffering, but be courageous [be confident, be undaunted, be filled with joy]; I have overcome the world.” [My conquest is accomplished, My victory abiding.]
    - (AMPLIFIED version)
    NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER. Regardless of what you've done or what you're going through you CAN make it through Jesus.
    If you have any questions let me know xx
