Fun fact: the post boxes in the post game have the phrase ”postnörd” written on them, this is a play on ”postnord”, a major postal service company in Sweden. ”postnörd” translates to post nerd, or mail nerd. As a swede i found this pretty funny

in Computer Developing cycle the first version (usually called alpha) is expected to be able to do all specifications of the program, so it makes sense that a professional dev team makes games that work but aren't polished up graphically and bug free Doesn't change the fact that some of these look addictive af despite being a free alpha of a failed product
@danitho

@@griffinbastion The polished bit is what I was caught off guard with. There were far fewer bugs than I'd expect and all of the designs looked intentional, rather than in development. But maybe these games were further along before than I expected when they abandoned them. I work in web dev, which is similar I suppose. But the way we work is different. Design usually comes far later, at least in my experience.
The fact the stressful looking post game was never made is honestly criminal

"That looks confusing, overwhelming, and stressful. I'm going to play it ..." My internal dialogue, every morning, when I awake ...
"I managed to make my house just walk into the sky" would be an unexpected sentence anywhere else but this is Kevin's channel.
This was an absolutely incredible idea from the developers instead of just scrapping their tome effort and money they just throw the stuff they don’t want into a game to ale it a game of mini games 🤯 this will be the future
That "Medival America" game is the most close representation of modern America but without schools 💀

I think what happened around 18:20 is that this is supposed to be a multiplayer game, but no one else was playing. I assume that after the bidding phase, you're supposed to fight around with other players (and whoever stays standing wins the match and earns a coin), but since there were no other players, you automatically won every round by default.
17:34 that looks like another one of those fighting games. The twist for that one looks like the fact that everyone bids for the weapons they use and then brawl it out, but since you had no one to play with it just automatically gave you the win. Looks really fun.
Post game actually seems really fun because instead of the typical management game things like splitters and sorters everything in post game is physical and the challenge comes from designing your own solutions using the various ways of moving boxes, all while more and more boxes keep piling up and falling into the void

For those looking for a full version of “Anything for my pals” it obviously doesn’t exist but something similar does, it’s called “humanity” and it’s quite similar, the differences are: you’re a dog, you place commands down for an endless stream of humans to follow instead of telling a limited group of them commands, and it’s third person. That’s really all the differences i can think of, it’s the same general idea, guide humans to the end of a level using commands, and there’s even a glowing orb that talks in that game as well. It’s more complicated with the commands but the humans are less wobbly
just wanna say that I'm really loving the new graphic overlays like the puff of breath at 12:15-ish and the new fire graphics. they look really great and add a nice flare to transitions that isnt jarring or like something out of windows movie maker (rest in peace to our hero). idk if it's Braddrs or Kevin who came up with it but alls I's knows is it looks awesome
Could you imagine playing this in the backrooms? They just seem like they'd go together.
Though it's not the same, the games The Beginners Guide, and The Magic Circle are similar in the way that they tell the story of developers going through development hell.

I just finished playing Black Mesa last week then played through their dev phase levels for Xen. It's so cool to see devs make their inner workings playable like this!
Wow... I can't believe I've already been watching Kevin for 4 years. How time passes
Weird game ideas from a Swedish game studio! That’s fun! Btw in that mail boxes game, the color and the name “Postnörd” (mail nerd) is in reference to the real Swedish/Danish mail service “Postnord” (mail north) that is known to often lose or delay package deliveries, which the game idea seems to hint towards with you constantly losing packages 😅
I need an 8 hr video on the mail game rn. it's weirdly soothing
Honestly I had trouble not to pee myself at the mammoth part, it was hilarious - the silly dance, the comedic pause of you talking, the fact that there is a lowpoly little pink guy shooting prehistoric elephants with rockets for no reason while it wiggles its butt in front of him and then it didn't even care, I can't breathe properly since the last twenty minutes that is just peak comedy X'D I totally lost it really, "He is doing a great little dance-" *BOOOM* *Depression cured* 🤣 Haaaw I love your editing, keep it up x'DDD
Love this, wish big game creators would do this, if they actually cared about pleasing our gaming needs, that is. Lmao.
i'm usually not a laugh-out-loud kind of video watcher, but i did laugh a lot under this one, it was great! lovely to see you kevin, hope you're doing well! 💜

Kevin is awesome, this dude just squeezed a "Lets game it out" video on there
love it so much when the editor came through with the sfx for the house game
the last thing i wanna see in my life is kevin peeking from a skyrim door
“Anything For My Friends” was a cute game, I enjoyed it! Perfect game for Kevin. ☺️❤💀
The follower game actually seems really cool. I like that concept for a full puzzle game!
Im not sure who cane up with the idea of polishing and releasing a bunch of early development games as one larger game, but that wasa smart move.
Kevin's kind of a military genius
PostNord is a real postal service here in Scandinavia/the Nordic countries, and this is probably how they lose all our packages for real
The postal game is very accurate. Must be how the actual company handles packages
TO FIX THE LAG ISSUE: find the games themselves in the installed folder. The Landfall Archives game actually just launches other games, which means that you actually have two games running at once, and the Landfall Archives is actually somewhat computationally expensive for a what little it has.
This is proof that a game doesn't need to be photo realistic or have true to life gameplay. A game justt needs to be fun. 😁
all of these look super fun especially the box one, I feel that with a little more polish the box one could be really really popular
The voice overs in the games are hilarious - "I don't even know what this one is called."
Every game studio should do this! This is amazing!
These seem like the kind of games Kevin would make
No better present than a Kevin video
So to me it seems the auction game is a mutliplayer brawler where you bid on weapons then enter a level and fight, but since there was no other player(s) you instanly won each fight
finally one of your videos hits my feed again
5:44 the absolute devastation Kevin felt was wholesome lol
Ah yes, Howl's Moving War Machine. My favorite Ghibli movie.
The perfect video to clean and perform some upgrades on my PC to.
That walking house looked cool if they develop it further.
I love these type of mashup games
As a Nordic who has to deal with PostNord, I would not be surprised if Kevin's system is actually how they sort packages...
As a game developer this vault room is what the inside of my brain looks like. The number of ideas i have that i have forgor. Just lost the key and location of. Outstanding
I love these compilation videos
Kevin: “This is what I need 50 yes men all as pale as me. Also Blob X Kevin Best Friends Forever.
7:01 Was funny. Always good to hear Johnny Cash.
looking back on auction brawl, i think the concept was that you were supposed to be bidding on weapons against other players, and it kept booting you because you were the only player left - you won each round by default
13:30 it's like Pong, Worms, and Angry Birds had a child. This would honestly make a dope mobile game
He made this game using the 100% of his mind
So THAT is why my packages from PostNord is alway late… Kevin designed their sorting system
Kevin's immediate addiction to the post box game is so funny
"Anything for my pals" looks like a very fun game idea.
the funniest part of the post sorting game is that the logo is a parody and almost exact copy of the swedish postage company called Postnord (post/mail north) who has a reputation of losing packages, having generally slow deliveries and bad handling. infact, like 80% of swedish memes are about how shit postnord is. the one in game uses the same font and color except the O in "nord" is replaced with Ö spelling "nörd" (nerd). i think kevin's playtrough could very well be actual footage from the postnord factories.
i've been struggling with mental health but your streams and videos always help me, love to see it!
Swedish game jam projects. Gives me nostalgia to when I was studying Game Dev.
I genuinely love the lil guys in 'Anything for my Pals' they're kinda cute lmao
Hope you are doing well Kevin! Been watching a lot of ur past streams lately for comfort, looking forward to the next one :)
That walk the line…. Line…. WAS IMMACULATE
Ooh a new video juist when i popped in! Thank you for making my day beter!
Hahaha the post game is a parody of the actual postal service in Sweden, postnord but they named it postnörd (wich translates to mailnerd) But also that they lose or fumble peoples mail all the time
You’re videos genuinely make me belly laugh every time. Keep doing what you’re doing 😄
They released this for april fools. All of this, for april fools. Absolute chads.
Postnörd=postal nerd Those blue postbins are supposed to resemble the main postal service in sweden (same colours, similar font) called "postnord". Just add dotts over the o and you get postal nerd. Can confirm that game perfectly sums up how well they work.
Its amazing to see that all of these games would have been such a success (or most of them)
