@@user-vy1xk6kb3f That's preference. Dark Mode is very popular for a reason, and as a fan of Dark Mode I like the black better. The white also looks really good as well though, so it isn't a completely _black and white_ change; figuratively speaking, of course 😉

Another challenge idea: try to be respectful towards the devs who are basically making free content for you

This honestly turned out to be one of the better games in the pass the game series, with clean visuals that are still simple to understand. Nobody tried to shove really complex, hard to understand graphics, and the gameplay looks simple but addicting.

Idea, a challenge called "Update", where you take past projects and let new or even the same devs give the game an update, and to see how much farther you can push it.

@egorthehawk4824

This is a solid idea. Some of the past games are so good and I wish they would continue to push them on and see what would come of them. Some just end up with lots of potential but no more work done.

This one, for example, is a diamond in the rough I feel, so an update would really help. We would also spare ourselves from the typical boss fight some devs plug into the game just for it to be “finished”

One of the best (if not THE best) pass-the-game challenges so far. Both the outcome was satisfying (the game looks original, clean and addictive) and the team collaboration was on point (nobody tried going against the current and improved on the previous devs work). Great job, everybody!

I feel like it'd be so cool to see pass the game reups, where the concept is flipped and you take an older pass the game project, and give it to a few devs who have to work together and communicate to remake or improve past pass the game challenges in a certain amount of time

I would have just gone with the idea of a second pass the game challenge where they don't communicate, but I think this idea is even better! Could be a great format, as it has a built-in problem so that the video be as much about game-dev as it is about the chaos of problem-solving with people you barely know!

do you think the devs from this video also waited nine months before the video was released?

This is the BEST pass the game BY FAR. Yall generated a game that I want to watch gameplay of. My god. So good.

I like how the first dev made the map open because he thought it was more fun ans the 5th dev added the walls back in

This is one of the, if not the best pass the game challenge I have seen yet. I honestly hope they spend a little more time on it make it a full game. In fact I’ll probably be willing to pay a few dollars for the game as is (with a global leaderboard)

everyone should watch andrew cunninghams newest video paint a picture on blackthornprods mismanagement , treating devs as game slaves making money off them while paying them with " exposure " lol i knew they were sleazebags the way some of the challenges are mismanaged and selling overpriced courses thomas brush imitators

Dude! Solid project, I’d love to see more work on this as it is super original and awesome bursting with potential, expected something to go wrong but I was greatly surprised. Good Video.

I personally prefer the black as I find it easier on the eyes to look at

every single dev came with HEAT

This is one of the few challenges where I was happy with all the updates from each person and the game actually looks legit at the end! Well done guys.

I weirdly came across this channel a couple of days ago and just randomly watched like 12 of your videos today. These have been absolutely amazing and glad to see another one pop up today!

this was amazing, it actually felt like all the devs were actually on the same page and it came out so good gj everyone in this, all the features that were added helped it so much

This one went so well! Nobody added random stupid crap or threw away good work, which is refreshing. There were clear differences of opinion yet the end result was cohesive and really shows everyone's efforts coming together.

This is so cool, the artstyles finally fir together, it's simple and seems fun asf

I think this video shows how much time is saved when you think ahead to other people editing your code. One of the best pass the game challenges I’ve seen on this channel and you can tell the devs showed some care for eachother

This was one of the best pass the game challenges I've watched, everything from the teamwork, execution, collaboration, no stupid stuff thrown in or unnecessarily removed, everyone came together to make something amazing and we got to see every stage including the play test and post challenge discussion, very entertaining and great job everyone involved!

I would like to see one where you somehow make the order a misery. No one know if they are the first or last person to be working on the game. So everyone is trying to finish the game in a chaotic race to the finish where no one knows who has started or where’s the end.

Almost every game they've made I've gone "man I wish they would allow a 2nd loop to allow it to be a full fledge game". Because all of them are THIS close to being amazing.

This game is insane man, it's amazing! So beautiful, so creative, so well done, the core mechanic is just brilliant, and everyone really added to the core really well! I hope this continues to get developed and shipped! If this game gets shipped, and I'm not as broken then as I am now, I'm totally willing to pay for it! I love the idea of WASD codes to activate abilities! God that's such a good idea!

One of the best pass the game challenges! Looking forward to the next one. These videos make me want to get into game design.

Wow, this one turned out great! Super impressive considering how few passes there were. Everyone brought something super important to the table and seemed to instinctively understand both what the previous devs intended and what the future devs could use. You love to see it!

this might be my favorite episode so far

Okay, yeah, that has to be one of the best yet. The editing is great, I loved every one of the devs' additions both to the project and to the editing if the video. Keep it up!

Well done guys! Was so enjoyable to see how proud everyone was at the end in the discussion. IwWould love to see a part2, where all 5 devs work together and communicate for a day or two, to add some of the things they discussed.

I think a wild game design challenge that would truly warrant the "Bug Edition" title would be to make a requirement the each developer must leave a bug in the game, whether it be something game breaking or just something funny. the devs would be forced to prioritize certain fixes while considering what could be left broken, and the next dev would hopefully make a creative way to either implement or cover up the bug before the next advancement of the game

Honestly this is very well done, very cool guys! you should continue it and release it together

its very understandable and expected when a pass the game challenge ends up being chaotic or not very finished, but thats all part of the fun you know. but seeing this actually work so well was so cool! everyone did a great job and seemed to use their time and focus exactly right for this to turn out so good

This is really cool, definitely one of the most impressive end products I've seen on the channel. Good work everyone involved!

I think this is one of the most complete & congruous projects I've seen on this channel in a long time! Great video and I definitely want to play this game!

This is certainly one of the cleanest challenges yet, and that has a lot to do with the concise and easily understood framework setup by the first dev that was then enhanced by those that followed. Cheers!

Every single dev here needs invited back for sure!

This is definitely a game you load up at dinner and then all of a sudden it's bed time

This is the best game I've seen in this series, each dev poured their souls into it. Cant imagine how that Vitaly guy would have absolutely obliterated this

A wonderful team, each one improving and adding to the game, and making it easier for the next dev to add something! Nobody had to take their time just to fix things, that's a game changer haha. Please more like this one!

Really really loved the changes made by Rugbug, terrific idea to add a boss

This is one of those results I think would be an amazing candidate for a "5 Devs _Complete_ the Game" challenge. 😛 The core game is there. It just needs content.

loved your content.. tried out 1 game and have been getting spam emails by a bot ever since tryign to make me sing up for a course or smth-- truly a channel of all time

The last dev made such a good job! Nice!

Beat of these in a LONG time. Everyone handled it super well, it was great to watch people pass the ball and build together.

I’m so hyped for the next part of the 100 devs make a game. I’m def gonna get it even if it’s put behind a paywall. It sounds so much fin

Definitely one of the best pass the project results, and this time all 5 devs were amazing. Kudos to all! This game could legit be big if its completed

IIRO really made the game unique, his changes are my favourite.

This was really good, love the "final" game (Hopefully one or more of you build it out more because I want to play a full version)

You're all incredibly talented game devs, Props to all of you. Very entertaining to watch!

the past few pass the game challenges have been phenomenal, keep it up!!!!

This is quite possibly one of the best games to come out of this series. Genuinely impressive how it simply became better and better in every aspect as it was passed from developer to developer. Great video!

Good job! Looks fun.

It would be cool to add dark mode and light mode so you can change it to white if you want, a cool idea for a boss could also be a centipede train where once you kill it it spawns random enemies

Ayy. Very glad to be early to watch thos fantastic series 💪

Amazing video! Everyone did a great job at mak8ng the game! Awesome❤❤ Also great editing🔥🔥

Since Blackthornprod dont mingle with the games themselves, these have been turning out really well

Devs 3 and 5 absolutely nailed this shit. Would love to see the two of them to collaborate on continuing this game.

this is for sure one of my favorits and its very well polished

Damn this one came together super well. Each dev did a great job adding on to it, and the computer bug theme at the end was a great bit of polish by Darkroom!

Think about how good the viewer retention would be if you responded to Andrew Cunningham's video.
