Lumber mills are extremely chill (he says loudly over chainsaws and woodchippers in the background)
"Sometimes it's just about being chill and happy about life."
That sounded a lot like Bob Ross.
I absolutely love Islanders, it's such a great time and the cell shaded style is so welcome for the genre. I always enjoy how you explain games, it's so well done and you always simplify it the perfect amount
I got this game a week ago and I cannot stop playing it, it's so addictive. Best 5 bucks I've spent in a long while.
bought it immediately after seeing 5 minutes of this video, seems like the perfect game for me
Same! It's the best game I've ever bought at that price.
This game is sooo chill. It's like Tetris with houses. It also always makes me happy to see Jon enjoying himself so much. Thank you for the amazing content MATN.
Mate, unless your standard for hard is somewhere beyond dark souls, Tetris is sodding Tense.
A simple mistake and you're most likely going to lose it all.
I love how sometimes jon is jumpy and paranoid and ready to implode with anxiety, and other times he's the Bob Ross of video games.
This game made me so relaxed I went into a coma
when you unlocked the temple, you actually had a totally empty plateau, which i think it would have fitted on.. sadly you were too excited to place the mansions on it first
The temple gives -75 points without adjacency bonusses, and it has pretty limited range, so that plateau would probably have had the same issues as the places he was able to put it, just slightly less bad.
It's so lovely how organic the towns the entire island looks.
There is obviously some min-maxing in the game, but you can't just create the big ol' square block of anything, instead you have to work with the terrain and the buildings you've already built - and that just looks so good.
This Is Like A Strategy/Puzzle City Builder.... And It Looks Brilliant!
"Oh, parks can't go on plateaus." he says while a park on the plateau is blocking the park he's trying to place there.
I buy so many games because of you Jon. Thanks for the chill game recommendation.
would love to see more of this game if possible, its super chill and i loved watching this while winding down and getting ready to sleep.
It reminds me of one of those GROW games you’d play on one of those “free games” sites.
Why did you put quotes around free games?
@@huntermcintosh8173 Because you touch yourself.
Watching you play this was both difficult and relaxing at the same time. A most enjoyable watch. I love it! Please play it again for us! I'm going to be buying this game, I think :)
Jon would have been great at one of those 70s art shows.
So happy about how long this video is! Love islanders
I'm going to save this to watch as I go to sleep tonight.
Such a chill, relaxing, and intriguing little game :)
british polish and english?
I would love it if when you are done with an island you see it evolve with each city center being it's own city and how they interact with eachother.
Reminds me of a webgame Da nplayed. Planet I think, and it was just the essence of chill.
Like if it were in production for as many years as it'd been online and it developed really high-level intricacies.
Also I Love the fact that at the start it's a lovely, simple, calming game and by the mid-point you're extensively agonising where to place buildings for maximum return, or at least minimum loss.
Ah, i remember that video. Heck, the outro got me into collecting Classical pieces off youtube for me to... pleasure myself with.
Now I want this game. I never played games before and now I’m finding a bunch I want 😂
You've never played games before!?!?!? Let me start you out right, there is a mobile game called last day on earth, it is free to play, artistically similar to this game, and is very fun. Weeks of fun as a matter of fact.
Space Hoes oooo thank you. I’ve gotten into stardew valley and Minecraft but before this year games were not my thing 😂
This was so pleasant to watch
Looks like a great, relaxing puzzle game!
Yay! I just found this game couple days ago and fell in love, it looks so relaxing and cute af. Haven't bought it yet (too many games waiting for play through) but this will help for now.
The cell shading really recalls Windwaker.
Man his happy tone reminds me of the train simulator he did that ended in madness... suddenly very concerned
Phoenix Taylor-Carter There is no concern. There is only Bruce. Love Bruce, for Bruce loves you.
Always a pleasure John.
Love this game too death but GOD I wish there was a free build mode!
Oooh I would like to see more of that
But what happens when the tide comes i- actually never mind, carry on, I'm sure it'll be alright.
Would love to see you play this again!!
I was hoping you'd play this!
I smell a chill livestream!!! :)
When it come to mansions and house u have to treat like tetris around the whole city center u can fit like 6 mansion around it for some big points
I think the city center should probably be built after the rest, it gest 5 off houses, while houses get 6 off of it, but it has massive range so it should be worth more?
42:05 the park could have gone next to the fields :D
Had to check it out after this video - for a $5 game, this is actually a lot of fun
Please make a series of this
Fallout 2 is Sunday
@@pluto3194 thank you
Love it.
I picked up the Devs other game, Superflight, in a Steam sale over Xmas for ~£1. Very similar visual style and very good fun, probably not enough depth for a vid though. Off to buy this now.
I love this game and am a bit triggered that Jon didn't tetris the Houses and Mansions.
You inspired me to buy the game and I do not regret it I've already put hours in.
this was strangely captivating
i think this would be an excellent game for a livestream
John is the British Army and he's here to take yer land!
MATN presents: Urban planning with Jon Ross - “happy little cities”
This could be a fun stream game!
My first try, got to the ice island. I screwed up since I left no space to put down a temple that doesnt put me in the negative. :(
If i had to have a problem with this game, it would be the fact that placing things in tight formation (mainly houses and mansions) can be really annoying sometimes. Its a near, not perfect, fit meaning you eventually break the housing block grid by a tiny bit as you build out, no matter how careful you are.
Last time I was this early, we used a calendar based on when a couple of brothers killed each other to figure out which hill to camp on.
Hal Effect what the hell is this referring to hahahhaha
@@thedumbdog1964 Its referring to the roman calendar which was based on how many years since the founding of rome and the myth is that two brothers Romulus and Remus couldnt agree which hill to camp on (which to be fair there were 7 options) so as a result they fought over it and Romulus won hence why it is called Rome instead of Reme.
@@thedumbdog1964 Romulus and Remus
Thank you
I purchased this game because of this video.
I'm proud of myself having made it to a video this early
You could've filled your first island alot more, but still good on it
Livestream please!
Should've put the resort on a plateau I think
When are the imperator streams being uploaded, as the embargo seems to be over with others uploading videos
Edit: I didn't realise the first one was already out, thank you for informing me!
The first one is already up
@@minscandboo9749 thanks, for some reason TH-cam didn't notify me!
Bob "Jon" Ross ^^
I'm pretty sure the temple has a base score of -75 so it's most likely not a source for points.
Matas Yes, you need to plan ahead to get the most out of the temple, which seems extremely difficult in the first few islands. Maybe when you can start placing statues yourself it becomes more manageable.
Hi Jon? Would you ever play Fallout 4 Sim Settlements Conqueror?
When I first read the title, I immediately thought of the Sports Team.
This looks great, cheap too.
can we get more of this game on the channel
Ouch my OCD
Is there going to be anymore Eastshade?
Island 3: Rise of The Huts
Love MATN :)
The sad thing is that he won't continue this series :(
Is this anywhere but PC?
👍
f yeah
1 flippin' hour of bad decisions...oohh boy... I guess the project boss asked can wait
No john I don't think we get the point I think we need more of this do part 2
Livestream pls :D
TROPICO 5! Come on Jon where is it? Why did you abandon it :(
9 minutes in.... does he ever pick brewing?
LonelySoulSearcher how dare you
Rimworld, please?
i-lander?
This is so painful to watch "Lets put it here for 11 points" *immediately shoves it to the right so its only 10*
Live stream this please
God the small inefficiencies are killing me
the one angle of rotation
the one space to the left
the one building not up against something
actual torture
A lot of people become too successful... You can imagine the small business owner who gets up, happy, and relaxed, goes to work whistling, says hello to his co-workers, essentially his extended family, and he's able to take the days in and the days out, the grinds, and the occasional hits, and everything's fine, but then he grows, and he has to hire more people, and there's strangers in the midst, and there's added stress, added complexity, employee rollover, personal life events come in and add to the stress, and since there's no more ease or release, the pressure build up, and he eventually either goes on vacation, burns out, or sells, but whatever the case may be, what he had is gone... If he goes on vacation he will come back to a medium business, and delegate. If he burns out, everything crumbles, and he may not be able to start over because of opportunity, ideas, fear, or angst. If he sells, he will not be able to start again, because he knows he can't keep, or hold onto what he loved...
Sometimes, or after a certain point, it's not about growing the numbers anymore, it's about staying at a comfortable level... Regardless, it takes energy to stop a moving object, so it's not something you can just "stop and hope for the best", you actually have to put a bit of effort to steer the curve, before engaging autopilot, and since it's your first time you'll also have to learn how to use cruise control and get comfortable with it, get experience with it, ... like a car, .... : |
The Land of Milk and Honey!
The Land of Milk and Honey!
Yaaaaaaaaaaay!
PLAY. MORE.
You sound like regit just more deeper
hey Jon I know another perfect "relaxing' game you can play, play Sekiro shadows die twice you'll get a lot of RnR with that game XD
Ok I think youtube is messing with me when this was first uploaded it was 48 minutes long now it says its 1hr 12mins
Where else did I hear your voice?
Anyone else have TH-cam say no views but 219 likes?
TH-cam determines views once a viewer has watched "x" percent of a video,whereas likes show when someone clicks the button.This means that if many people like before actually watching the video you wind up with this classic confusion.
When you hear plateau you know botw memes are coming
When will we see more Imperator?
But why would you want that game of violent conquest when you can watch this calming city-builder... :) Mind you as soon as I'm less mellow I'll probably be agreeing with you
@@ProjectEkerTest33 lol its the history lessons as MATN plays through.
@@shadowqueen1701 Haha fair point I do love his history lessons... also his alternate history where a cretan archer became emperor and took a rocket into space

Milk honey but no tey then waht are those two for
It’s Sha-man, not sha-men!
It's a low tech version of Cliff Empire.
Btw, where is the Fallout 3 stream? "I keep an eye on how this video does...." The Fallout 3 video is past 4m views now...
Kill Everything and You Only Live Once wasn’t enough?
Oof
Does anyone remember Fallout New Vegas kill everything? I really want that series to return.
Why do you say islanders like that?
Why does the video have 3 views and10 likes is there something wrong with youtubes graphics?
Because you touch yourself at night.
I swear Jon did a video on this like last week...
You sounds like Tobuscus.
