1:20 22 year old 8:00 risks of new projects 9:00 making games that people wanna play 14:00 rushing pre production because needed income 17:20 importance of virality 30:02 this idea could make a couple hundred grand, then it did much better 30:20 expectations vs reality 32:20 previous game took 4 years , worked with a publisher and wasn’t really profitably 34:40 gamedev is a marathon. Not a one hit and retire 41:50 entire game in blueprints. Has no experience at all with C++

This is great to see, lots to learn from Gavin and it's really cool to listen to you guys bounce ideas off each other. I didn't realize Gavin was thinking about things from a hook perspective to begin with, I assumed he happened to want to make something that happened to be hook-y, but it's actually quite gratifying to hear that he planned it, because it feels like it's something that can be planned and strategized, i.e. that the dev does have a certain degree of control over his success.

This was awesome. The only thing that was missing is that you didn't covered the topic of how to do proper market research. Gavin did touch that topic, but I believe that this topic deserves in-depth coverage and discussion. My suggestion for the next guest would be David Szymanski.

Speaking from my shopping experience, one thing that makes it eye catching is simply the name. That's what made me click when i was on Steam. How do you not click when you see Choo Choo Charles? Very original.

That was such a great Interview, especially hearing that the process right from the Start was built around the Character, i would've loved to hear more about the way he thought about the Gameplay Loop, the Quests etc. but i think there's not too much to say about fetching stuff, or making a challenge around it. Glad he's made it, i would've liked to know his thoughts on making a heartfelt game that didn't see a huge success like this, and how this "memey" type Game was such a hit and if it influenced the way he's thinking about future Games or what types to make.

This was awesome info, and great job to this guy who has more success at 21 than most at 41! Crazy that he started at 12, gamedevs keep starting younger and younger.

22 years old is basically the start of your adult life. Amazing...

After a week of hauling bricks (or any physical activity), you end up very tired but stronger in the long run (assuming you nourish yourself correctly). After a week of gamedev (or any other heavy mental task) you end up with (maybe) more knowledge, but strained and many times, weaker than before.
