The idea of spending years on something only for it to flop or not even see the light of day terrifies me but man what you've done with this is really something special. I remember seeing this project way back. Great to see the end of the road!

So something that I've learned as I've gotten older and I wish I learned earlier is to allow yourself to be new at a new skill, for me I was so afraid of failure that I'd never learn something new. But reality is we learn as humans more from failure than we do from success, so it's okay to fail! If you do, and you probably will with something as complex as a game let's be honest here it's a complex amalgamation of stuff science, language, math, art. And those are just the basic skills, it goes further in the more complex your project. So make games and learn from everything you do and eventually you'll get better and better and better, . Its not a race it's a learning experience, and the only way to really fail is either to never start for fear of failure. Best of luck I really hope to see your work in the future 😀

I'm studying game art right now and your story is honestly so inspiring. You don't shy away from talking about your failures and instead show us what we can learn from them. I really hope your game will be a success and that I might also be able to develop one in the future.

You should make a video where you explain the creation of a monster. Like what was the original concept, how and why you changed it over time and go more in-depth in the little design choices.

I'm so excited that Patch Quest is finally getting a proper release! By far one of my favorite indies, and I can't wait to continue to see it grow :)

Amazing to see the project coming to an end! Been following your journey for a couple of years now!

Really great to hear it all worked out for you! I loved your other video about having to start over.

You are such an inspiration for me. I've loved patch quest, and I'm super excited for what comes next!

Brilliant video. It's great to hear your retrospective thoughts and the whole story!

Your game looks very polished! Well done! Good luck!

Great video! It sounds like you've ascended to a level of understanding of gamedev that not many do. Congratz on your achievments and I'm sure that your next games will be great, as you are on the right track.

Really beautiful video, made me tear up a bit. It must feel really great to have a release date after all this time. Been following you for a few years and the game has never looked better. Can’t wait to play through it again when it finally releases v1.0

I was watching your devlogs for a long time, played early access version, and I will come back to it at full release. Great job so far - good luck, fingers crossed!

Fascinating video. You've made an amazing game to be very proud of, it's incredibly fun! I've been hooked ever since I bought it. I'm sure it was rough, glad you didn't give up. Great job!!

I'm currently watching your video while I'm developing my own game. Its really inspiring to see your journey up and downs until your final result. Amazing work ! Great Video

Man, what a precious gem you made with this video! In the end, all that i keep thinking is “god, i hope this man gets the success he deserves!!!!”

This game looks fantastic, already shared it with my friends and all of them are interested. I fully support you , and I love how fresh the idea is . KEEP IT UP MY FRIEND !!!! 🤩

This is like a whole book's worth of information all edited and packaged perfectly. Amazing content!

What a great success story, your game looks beautiful. And the video is so well made. Congrats on all the success. ♥

Great video, and you should be so proud of your game. It looks fun and beautiful! I'm literally just dipping my toe into game making, but im a bit older and basically starting from scratch

Really proud how far this project has come and how much you have learned and share it with us! You nailed it with monster design and understood appeal, which many other monster designers seem to miss. I'm also trying making game and it is really hard!

Congrats! I’ve had Parch Quest wishlisted for so long. Literally just about to play for the first time on my Steam Deck. Looks like you’ve hit that perfect balance between being punishingly difficult and yet never frustrating.

you are amazing, kudos for your game and your journey!

I’d love it if you made a video on each of the topics you listed at the end. But even if you don’t, I can’t wait to get Patch Quest. It looks fun and unique. You’ve taught me a lot about game design which has been so helpful! Thanks and good luck for the launch and your future projects!

Thank you for sharing your journey with us! I’ll revisit this video when I need it ❤ I thought that Patchquest was created by a larger studio, so kudos for you, your skills, patience and love for your ideas.

Great Video! Ive always wanted to be a game developer and you’ve really inspired me! I sincerely hope your game does well, you deserve it!

I am really excited for the launch and btw great video 😊

Struggling along on my own solo journey while I try to simultaneously learn Unity and C#. Your video helped me feel less alone and gave me some inspo. Thanks for that!

I think in-depth vids would be an awesome follow-up across the board :) The learning curve for every one of those hurdles you jumped, smashed through and tripped over would be a great thing!

This video was insanely well put together. Awesome game!

20:58 The quote " Don't compare yourself to other people. Compare yourself to who you were yesterday " is by Jordan Pearson. Great guy.

I just came back from one of Retromation's plays of Patch Quest. I didn't realize that the world of Patch Quest is so large and complex. I really enjoy when some of his comments run parallel to your descriptions of the game. Very cool game!

Really great video, learnt a ton from this video. I really liked the flowers, animals and randoms videos in between which tied the whole thing together. Will definitely give the game a try

This video was truly inspiring. There are many "how to game dev" videos out there, but this video really got to me. Your passion is incredible and I'm so proud of you for not giving up for so many years working on this project. Personally, rougelite is not at all my genre. Your game definitely looks awesome, but it's just not my kinda game. I bought it anyway to support you, as I think passionate, dedicated artists like you are definitely what this world needs. I'm sure many players out there will greatly enjoy your creation! Good luck

I've been following your journey on Patch Quest for years now, learning from your experiences as you developed all these things and explained all your Dev Logs and... I don't design video games, my focus tends to be more on the tabletop: TTRPGs, Card Games, Board Games. And I've learned so much from seeing you fight to finish this game that I can apply to my own projects. I didn't realize until I'd discovered your videos that I'd made much the same mistake, and overlooked what the core of my game was and had to restart from scratch several times before I was finally able to settle on something. My own projects are still in development, but I wanted to take a moment to thank you for all the advice, guidance, and inspiration you've given me over the years. I *finally* remembered to subscribe today, and you can bet I'll be buying a copy when Patch Quest Releases next month. Thank you so much for everything, and congratulations on your upcoming release.

I am watching your dev logs for a while now. I am impressed that you could keep up the motivation through out those years. So, I just bought your game and played it for a few hours. I realy enjoy it so far. It has fun game play mechanics and it is very polished. Great work!!!

Thank you so much for the video. Helped a lot.

Thank you for this amazing video. It was lovely to get an inside in the development process and you explain it so clear and well! When you talked about the release I thought of a grown up kid… at one point you have to let them go on their own, even if you made mistakes along the road, even when it is scary and even when you have such high hopes for them.

20 minute - 23 minute mark was beautiful. I am a college professor and director of data science courses while also working on my PhD in AI but I have been making games on the side for years, doing consulting work for indies who don't underestand economics / econometrics for their games. I have been working on my dream game for years and I redo it from scratch each time I learn new skills. I can walk miles around adobe products and game engines, but I am solo so it gets discouraging when I run into breaks where I see new completed games. I teach my students growth mindset and I'm here living it. I also think back to the fact that I am trying to also tell a story and immerse the audience in an environment. I am also reminded that a lot of games exist and are fun to play now even though their style and concept are almost 40 years old.

This video hits crazy hard nice job dude.
