Loved the intro, as someone who works for myself mostly at home also I breathed a sigh of relief when you were joking about 4.30am...

Ponty: It's 4:30 in the morning... Window: Yeaaaahhh nahhhh
I've watched this video and litterally every single other devlog 3 times already, I've been a fan for a while now. Quality content keep it up!
I love your videos! You can truly see you've worked with films. Hope you get the 100k soon.
Hi Pontypants! been loving the vids!
love it when u upload...ur videos are really high quality man
Awesome video great to see another game devs daily routine :D
I was so confused when you said you were waking up at 4:30 but the sun was out. I was like "...man I've gotta move to BC".
Appreciate the effort man. I know editing of this quality takes a bit of time and dedication. On top of trying to build a game, be creative... you're killing it. Keep going, but don't wear yourself out!
love your vids man ❤️
When I see that you've uploaded a video i really get so excited about it. I like how you talk about your routine and i want you to know that your videos are a part of my routine now. Love you and your content so much
I love the effort he puts in his videos. The edits are amazing.
At first I was fooled with the intro and almost clicked off then I was relieved it wasn't real.
I'm a total fan of your videos, never miss one!

Like this format! The drone camera of you running by the water 👌👌
Your video inspired me to take the course. It's great! I already do some development work for my day job so it's a bit easier for me to pick up, however I have been recommending this course to a couple of friends that were interested.
Great channel!!! The game looks awesome too! Looking forward to wishlist :)

Used to watch these all the time, then I started truck driving to bring in some money. But I’m back in college now learning programming and looking forward to maybe following in you and so many others’ footsteps soon. I’m excited to see all the progress on this and catch up! 🎉

Keep on that grind
Very cool Drone footage
Hahah that intro, btw, your videos are literally my favourite ones
I love to think that he runs. Puts the camera down. Runs back. To run into the frame for the shot and I really appreciate it
This was a fun video!
Good shots with the dron... i was gonna ask u where do u live, but then i relaised that i would look like a stalker... xd
Finally a video 👍❤
Love your content thanks sharing
Just realized that Ponty has a drone. Neato
4:39 I think you startled that woman😂 I feel at home when I watch your videos. They're always amazing💯
I love all your videos
Haha, that intro was great. And perfect timing for me since my friend was just talking about how she wanted to try getting up super early like all the KZreadrs do. And then I was like: "What? No way, he does that?". :p
i wish u the best of luck in ur new game making adventure. I hope u succeed
Man I Love Your Contenttttttttttt ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Did you chnage your routine ? Now that you are a successful Indie Dev . COngrats on your sucess btw , I saw your videos long ago and now seeing how your games have been a success on steam made me really happy and inspired
I just discovered you by looking for unreal engine videos. I really like yours ! Made me laugh 😀
I sense something, something special: Ponty merch will come up soon.
Cool video!
I thought i wouldn't like your videos since you work on unreal but now that i think of it your one of my favorite indie game dev.
WOOOOOOOOOO NEW VIDEO! THIS IS YOUR GREATEST FAN! WOOOOOOO!
me watches until 7:36 looks in desc Doesnt see a link for steam: Starts Crying
It's cool to see your day. It must definitely feel strange going from doing game dev and youtube as a hobby to a full time job.
Setting up the steam page is always a lot of fun, to me at least
Love seeing these "days in the life " videos, think they are super interesting to see and yours was no different! Would love to see these more :)
Keep it up!
I really appreciate that you try to keep a work/life balance. I know programmers who burn the candle at both ends, eat crap, don't work out, and burn out after a few years. Their health, mood, and productivity really suffer.
Cool vid man. Just discovered your channel, I'm an aspiring indie dev myself. You're game looks really dope btw, earned my sub!
