Hi
Love you man also love Jesus repent and believe in the gospel (not judging this person just saying it for saying it because i love spreading the gospel)
please play more project zomboid
E
Josh when is Johnny Hotbody gonna return?
Throwing Josh out of the shuttle and just hastily leaving was the smartest thing I have seen an NPC do in a videogame.
hey
Yes, but it didn't save them in the end!
Grace never forgets a face
Grace had plenty of time to plot after he left her on Mars...
Grace never forgot what happened on Mars.
When games sponsor Josh's videos they get not only publicity but also very intensive and unhinged bug testing and I love that for them
Fr he’s like the best stress tester out there
Step one on how to test for game bugs
Get josh to play it.
He. Will. Find. Them. All.
I can't believe he got so sidetracked by the black hole he never finished going to the star.
the rare moment josh doesn't finish his goal
English language please
@martian It's a perfectly fine sentences, would you like this user to spell it out?
@martian That IS english
I hope this becomes a series.
This deserves to be a series.
After blackhole, what await to be found
I'm surprised how well the game handled
Nice
Nice
Nice
Nice
👍
Now I finally understand how Josh has the time to do these terrifyingly long tasks.
*Black hole time dilation.*
Then wouldn't he be making *5 videos a minute?*
@Divine Beast Vah Koloktos Even with the time dilation, we're lucky he's able to put one out every few months! XD
@Servant of the King wouldn't time be moving slower inside the blackhole?
@Divine Beast Vah Koloktos Oh yeah, you're right. Maybe that's why it seems to take so long for us, but from his perspective he's pumping out videos once per day. XD
@Servant of the King he could be making 10 every day
Welp time to watch Josh do anything except for making an efficient colony.
E
There's only Josh. Forever!
as he said, efficiency is for other people
E
*accidentally finds 10 times more bugs than expected*
I’m just so fascinated with how long it must take to create all this. Like with the fishing, when it’s hundreds of fish. How long does this actually take?? I am dying to know lol.
So many hours. So, so many hours
@Let's Game It OutThe ADHD drugs ruined you.
he does actually mention time passed in his videos you know.
@Evolving Shrimp thank you, yes I know that. But when he does it’s typically for just a section of something, not how many hours went into the entire video making.
@Let's Game It Out I bet! 😳
Damn that game is well optimized. Even wirh the lags on placing some movable objects it always recorvers itself. Astonishing
I love how Gray's custom floors make it seem like the game went through an egregiously horrific SFM texture absence
I too sometimes get graystillplays and letsgameitout mixed up
I don’t, not since gray complete scorned what got him his first millions.
I'm not familiar with that channel or its drama -- what happened?
@M M graystillplays, the og destruction/chaos Clip-Sharer. He very frequently pushed games to its absolute limits causing all sorts of havoc. However once he started getting more popular he started changing his content, doing things like playing really hard levels in games like happy wheels and gta v. While these are interesting to a point, he started doing ONLY them. Right now he hasn’t done one of the videos that got him millions in months if not years. His best stuff is from before 2020.
@Pipe cleaner MasterSeriously I miss the time before the iPad baby content.
"Well I think we can see where this is going" - one of my favorite sentences of all time.
In a previous video where he said "Give me a 'hold', give me a 'please'!" I died laughing
Another personal favourite: "is there a limit?"
Every time he says that, game developers get a chill down the spine.
I ABSOLUTELY love how Josh breaks every single game, even the ones he was sponsored to play. He's an absolute maniac and gigachad. Loved every second of the video.
it's really good advertisement
If I sponsored Josh to play my video game and he DIDN'T break it, I'd demand my money back!
@FazJaxton lol same if i had a game
“We’ve got the infinity of space around us.” The last thing Josh needs, no limits.
My favorite game! ‘Is there a limit?’
@Lillian Buchholz Yep
Or is it *exactly* what Josh needs
"Hold please."
I think you mean the first thing he needs
I love how he can play how he still progresses, but in the worst way possible. That takes talent.
Wow, the framerate lasted for a lot! Congrats Astro!
3:23 I love the fact that he doesn't stop swinging his pickaxe even when the rock is destroyed. A man in space going rock to rock, constantly swinging a pickaxe in order to get unfathomable amounts of ressources is the most LGIO thing ever
I have to admit, the astronaut dance crew was my favourite part
i love how josh takes time and effort into hos jokes. ik how long it took for that boulder to hit his plot. This is why on every video it takes long for another one. The time he uses to setup his jokes, the time he takes to lag and then break the game and the editing takes a lot of time and dedication.
Thank you Josh
I'm surprised how well the game handled Josh. It feels like they actually thought about what he'd do and put safety measures on before launch
Yeah, but they also put black holes in the game. When he causes the singularity I'm pretty sure it's going to be their fault.
You don't invite the Devil to dinner without first turning the heating on.
Edit: more accurately: before first making the furniture fireproof.
Or he's being nice because they sponsored the whole thing.
@Steve I dunno, you saw him try to make several powerlines to infinity, right?
You either watch Josh when you decide to sponser him playing your game or you need a serious hardcore bug/glitch/code deficit finder and Josh is relatively cheap for what he does.
'Let's do 1 line to see how it works.'
Definitely something Josh says often
I would be so terrified as a game designer to let Josh have a go at it. Gutzpah on the devs! Respect for this kind of sponsored content
Josh in a nutshell: “I’m so happy because it’s so unnecessary!”
I actually want Josh to continue this save and complete the game, it looks so interesting! Side note, i dont get how Josh fell down when space is supposed to be sorta 0G,
Who said he was in space?
Pretty sure he did?
Yeah I saw the space thing immediately and was so confused how the game devs didn’t think about that. When he walks or jumps off the platform he should just float away slower and slower in whichever direction he went until he came to a complete stop, unable to move until he uses the hover things.
Props to Josh for finding a way to use the word Docking so many times xD
I gotta say, I'm really impressed how well the game kept rendering. I was expecting constant slideshow after placing the first Borg Cube
Probably thanks to the emptyness of the map
Giving Josh a free copy/sponsored video has got to be the best bang-for-buck investment you can make in QA/playtesting.
Compared to most LGIO titles, there's some genuinely god-tier memory management going on under the hood here.
I'm actually shocked at how well this game recovered from each atrocity, other devs could stand to learn a thing or two.
Astro Colony eerily similar to Minecraft map... I couldn't remember the exact, but as far as I know that Player destroys meteors to collect resources. Hmm.
911
@david arvin gumazon what 💀
"Yeah, whatever, kurzgesagt." That actually made me laugh from the start. 🤣
Thank you so f-ing much. I’m going through such a hard time rn, trying not to cry but it’s hard. I just started crying heavily before going into ur channel and I almost immediately felt better. Ur videos always makes me feel better, even when I’m at my worst.
Just wanted to thank you and please don’t stop doing what you enjoy..
“Okay I think that might be enough”
Did a game get the better of Josh? 😂
"And then I realized I don't care" is basically the motto for this channel
That pink and brighter pink is literally the default “missing textures” texture and i love how you independently got there
Finally, a game that lets you answer the question: "What if Satisfactory and MissingNo had a baby?"
I wouldn't be surprised if he has the hex code numbers for those tattooed somewhere
Glad to see someone else notice this. I doubt Josh knew that, of course, but its still a fun bit of trivia. XD
in ue4 m.t are actually grey checkers
i literally commented: 12:45 EFFICIENCY NOT FOUND
This video came out and it showed off the game so well that I basically immediately bought the game and played it all day
I'm so glad Josh does all the efficiency guide videos. It's really helped me improve my bases!
Josh should have his own screen saver of never ending conveyer belts
he have on steam page satisfactory :D
8:08 is genuinely perfect, from the narration to the silence
Every time Josh plays a game, the devs tremble in fear
This game actually handled Josh’s shenanigans much better than other games. The frame rate was superb for the most part and there was finally something, Josh couldn’t find the limit of. Color me impressed
They didn't give him dynamite tho
I don’t think dynamite can work in space.
This is exactly what I was thinking...kudos to the devs for making a pretty robust game!
I'm honestly impressed. I mean, I know he has a pretty over the top computer, but even so most games would have crashed or had major framerate issues from all of that. He only had the one time with the moving wire line, and even that was just because so much was moving at once on top of everything else.
@t76a2d it can. There wouldn't be enough oxygen able to get to it fast enough even on earth, especially given the shockwave of an explosion. Most work fine in a vacuum, short of fuel air type explosives. Think rockets, where they have fuel and oxidizer as a similar concept.
Josh making a No Texture platform was amazing
Josh straight up makes art through hours and hours of commitment to the bit.
i laughed for 3 minutes straight when josh made the astronauts fly away when being summoned into the black hole
"Because in my mind electricity is magic" ngl even after trade school and learning how it actually works that is still how I boil it down in my head😆
This man is the definition of “I did some stuff off camera”
If you can optimize a game where by the end of part one Josh isn't at sub 10 fps, you deserve an award.
This ! They knew who they were dealing with when they sponsored the video !
i bet he got the boosted version
Beep bop... I'm the Philosophy Bot. Here, have a quote:
"Live your life as though your every act were to become a universal law"
~ Immanuel Kant
@Philosophy_Bot anything about josh breaking reality of a game?
well he did crash the fps when he moved the dock with a billion of wires on it
“So i guess we all see where this is going”
Yes we do josh and we are here for it 😂
I really like the videos where Josh ends up like actually playing the game? Astro looks really fun to play!
The game truly begins at 8:00
I know these are all ads for games, but it's also fun to watch him explain how the game works while putting his own spin on things.
I love how he single-handedly creates the "missing texture" tile sets.
Josh murdering 4 out of 5 astronauts every time he called them into a black hole by running them to death is the funniest thing I've seen all week
You Have A Very Interesting Taste..
I can undoubtedly agree with that statement
4 out of 5 astronauts satisfied!
Agreed
Funny true
thats so spooky that i actually saw my name w/ the exact spelling in the astronaut list. idk whether to be honored or terrified to be part of Josh's hellscape in space
He never disappoints us with his content
Josh having so much fun with conveyor belts is always great
You know Josh has made it when he can make two videos per month and live lavishly just on that.
AcSHuallY he MaDe 4!!!! VIdeoS LAst MontH 🤓
Just imagine your flying in space exploring to find a new planet like earth, you find something, but its josh doing this.
The fact that Josh is able to unlock an ability called "Poultry Farming" in *space* is both utterly baffling and hilarious
Well, said space also has gravity that just goes an arbitrary direction without any mass to actually cause it. I don't think the devs were any more concerned with reality than Josh.
if you think about it in a broader sense, WE are in space, so so are all chickens!
I wonder how many chickens will fit into a black hole. Can't wait for episode 2.
Ain’t nobody here but us chickens.
You should play kerbal space program
The last part with astronauts flying into space then popping out of existence is hilarious 🤣
Very funny, but NGL I was waiting for the part where Josh sets up an insane base around the black hole and uses it to torture settlers. Part 2? 👀
Having Josh make an ad for your game really is a great investment, you both get the ad and playtesting of things you never thought of
We can all count on josh to do the funniest and dumbest stuff you can think of😂😂
the first thing i thought about the colored tiles is "bros making a disco dance stage" and then he made the automated pulling asteroid things that shoots out light and it did look like an astro disco dance space 😂
I won't be surprised if Josh gets hired as a bug tester.
He'll break anything for free anyways
Tbf, isn’t that what happened here considering it’s a sponsorship 😂
E
Freelancer bug testing
Not tester but finder.
Your oxygen matrix worm thing looked exactly like the space folding machines in Dune.
The first tile he made looks the Minecraft missing texture and it was hilarious
You know its gonna be a series when josh discovers they are conveyor belts😂
The Astronaut's disco death dance had me crying.
The unnecessary conveyor belt journeys are always a favourite of mine. 😁
This game runs surprisingly well, considering the hellscape Josh created
Could also be his computer with the whole terabyte of RAM he has.
I mean they consider now when creating game is it gonna survive after josh plays it 😂😂😂
@Dylan Baker said _"Could also be his computer with the whole terabyte of RAM he has."_
But even then this game fares better under ...stress... than most others Josh plays.
@Dylan Baker You got me curious enough to check - dunno if it's up to date, but here are the most recent specs listed on his Twitch FAQ:
"i9-10850, RTX 3090, 64GB of RAM, a mess of hard drives, and THE WILL TO KEEP GOING"
I'm pretty sure that it gets away with it by limiting physics, which is why things clip into each other all the time. If you don't have to calculate intersections between mesh A and mesh B, that's a LOT of math you don't have to do. It also explains why the frame rate goes straight to hell when large meshes move: that's actual math. Once it becomes static again, the only math required is on the rendering side.
Seeing how everything is obviously built on a quantized 3D grid, that's actually a clever way to do it. If the devs ever decide that Josh's clipping monstrosities are bugs rather than features, they just have to prevent occupied grid cubes from interacting when moved. That's a lot less math. Josh would still manage to break it, but at least it'd be a bunch harder than it usually is for him.
At this point I'm convinced gamedevs send the keys to Josh not for promotion but just to see what the hellish ideas he will be able to come up with while playing their games
the way those guys moonwalked away was so beautiful
When he says "Hey there it Josh" the whole universe quivers in fear
I need a sequel!!! Please!!!
Honestly, that the game survived Josh and kept up a decent framerate is probably the best advertising it could have gotten. 😂
I'm 30 seconds in, the cube thingy trying to explain the game's background, Josh goes "yeah whatever Kurzgesagt" and I'm losing it already 😂
Scrolled just to find this 😂
@Yevs who didnt
Proof Kurzgesagt and Josh exist on the same side of the internet.
He even pronounced it correctly!
I actually didn't know what he said, thanks.
The little song josh plays every time something funny happens is golden
Every time I’m sad I watch let’s game it out videos and all of a sudden I’m dying from laughter
U kinda get the same thing, with GrayStillPlays, also LMAO
The fact that the wires on a moved object by astral harpoon can connect to live wire and gain power, means that you can make large compound switches, like a sudo solinoid/transistor
I wonder how many computers Josh has gone through by pushing the limits of every game he plays.
its been a genuine pleasure to watch your channel grow josh
It's fun to watch Josh's slow descent into madness since Anthony left
Thank god, someone who watched the old vids.
I miss Anthony...
E
@Killzonehe murdered Anthony, his madness has taken over!
Plot twist: it was him all along
Who the hell is Anthony
the way josh blueprints a wire so big that he accidentally finds the spawn area
This is probably my favorite let’s game it out video. I cant stop watching… please help
This was really good. Definitely hope for more of this game in the future. Especially since the astronauts can have names, one of em might be Grace.
I’d play a game with this man but I know he’s gonna make my life unnecessarily difficult
im just watching this now but i love how its always a dose of chaos each video
Deeply impressed with the optimizations that let the framerate stay sane in the face of Josh's architectural ambitions.
Everyone on this team should be immensely proud of themselves and what they accomplished.
Don't forget that his computer is also like NASA levels
@Memes Reborn Official still, even with his nasa pc, games like satisfactory could not handle Josh’s creations. Granted this is only about 1/49 of Josh’s power
Because there's no rigid body dynamics to worry about.
@NOS yep seems like they minimised collisions. I think the asteroid islands have no collision when docking to avoid lag
Was having a boring day until I saw this!! You gotta do more on this game 😂
Extremely glad to see Josh get sponsored by a quality game and play said quality game.
I’m surprised the frame rate held up after he made 150 automated meteor hubs with built-in tractor beams 😂
i love that when the astronauts flew away they started dancing lmfao
Id definitely like to see more of this game looks fun!
Josh is literally the playtester all game devs need. "Alright. Josh is playing. Oh, look! he already found a bug!"
Oh, how did such a simple bug make it through unnoticed.
Well, you see sir. We never expected anyone to ever take the days of playtime to just build a bridge and walk to the anomalies in space. When we put a space ship in the game, just to reach the far away places.
I think he literally is a playtester, people send him their games to playtest.
I guess I'll get Josh to EVENTUALLY play my concept game
All he had to do was leave the game running for five days straight while building more and more stuff!
that blueprint part imho proves that the "blueprint area" is just teleporting a clone of you to a far-off location, and erases a large bubble around it, if your "real body" is inside the oxygen bubble, you could probably fly/walk around infinitely and grab resources and planetoids and stuff
however, I am really surprised they managed to overlook the collision problem, lol, that you can dock stuff in a way things clip into each other, without any negative effects
And here we go another day packed with josh finding a way to torment his computer and the people of Reboot.
Damn I miss that TV series
great job josh! Really looks like an interesting game. Ranking this video a 4 out of 5 astronauts Backstreet boying off into the void of space.
Any game that offers Josh conveyor belts is begging for the most horrific forms of abuse
It would be so funny is Josh built a base that looked very neat and logical and then turned around to show an eldritch horror of a base being like "And this is my main production"
This channel is the only one that can get me to watch what is essentially a 30 minute infomercial.
I swear, game dev's send Josh an early access code just so he can find bugs for them to fix
I do believe the game held itself most gracefully despite everything!
I've always thought the same thing, if anyone could find a way to break the game, it'd be Josh.
Hydronier.exe
I mean this time they actually sponsored the video, so you can take it as a payment for game testing !
Advertising doesn't usually come with a free bug finding program so it's like a two for one special.
you wouldn't believe my surprise that the game actually put up with josh's mayhem
I love the monstrosities he makes 👍
I probably watched every single video on you channel at least 2 or 3 times and I must say that this is among my all-time favorites. The game is awesome, it has so many fresh ideas and offers so many possibilities. And what you do with it is absolutely phenomenal, breathtaking and hilarious at every turn.
Which is my way of saying: We need WAY more of this game. Please!!
