Loved this video !
I enjoyed so much playing Stacklands! It was the first game I actually took the time grind for all the achievements ☺
I enjoyed the new style talking about indie success is very helpful, i would like to see more like it maybe once a month if the info is hard to find, keep up the good work 👍 and thank you
Super interesting vid Clemmy.
Personally I'm not a fan of the Sokpop collective. This whole 4-month cycle is both a blessing and a curse. Sometimes they have really interesting ideas but the 4 months barely allows it to leave the concept phase and feature any actual expansion. So a lot of sokpop games are so much less than they could be which is just a shame.
Great that they've found success with one of their titles though, happy for them. I just wish some of their past game could have gotten more time.
It's so hit and miss with them how much game will be attached to the next idea.
nice breakdown!
Thanks for the video-essay Clemmy, very interesting.
Thanks!
Unique ideas done well tend to succeed.
1:02 Wow. I had no idea this was their structure, with each dev working on a game for four month. Here, I've been so jealous of them for being able to make and release a cool game in a month.
Also. First time commenter, long time watcher, since around early or mid 2020. Literally binged all your indie compilations recently too. I don't know how YouTube works, but around April and May (this year), I watched and rewatched your compilation videos from oldest to newest. 😄 I was the one! Or maybe many people do that too😆
Stumble on this game and whitelisted it cause it looks interesting while queueing games in Steam Summer Sale, i really should buy it
Indie games is where innovative ideas will be best to find: Good going.
I can see this format holding a lot of promise in the future. Not much of a fan of the music in this first one though. Maybe you can play a track from the actual game if the soundtrack is available?
well deserved for sokpop , there business model is interesting while putting out interesting games
Oh I see. There different people like those game for relax or causal games that is simple to try out.
An interesting business process. Just mass produce until you find something with that extra oomph that gets you a big pay day.
Hey, thank you so much for your video! It gave me tons of ideas and helped me a lot with one of the things you mentioned, "avoid the perfection trap". This is my biggest issue always hahhaha and it's awesome to see videos like this one, it show that this happens and it's ok to happen but we need to go ahead and keep developing what we are doing.
This was really nice! Thank you! =D It gives me some perspective and encouragement as I'm currently making a game-engine myself with some game ideas & concepts in mind.
I have this game on steam and enjoyed the game like hell. It was awesome for the price
More “Ghost Song”!!?
stacklands is an amazing indie, the little things really got to me like the song speeding up and slowing down when you change the game speed, and the update to go to the island really expanded the experience
I like this format 🙂
Great format. Their studio and development structure is curious but also a little obvious given the current climate. Hope to see more successes from them or others who have something similar going on.
Hey. Good video, I heard about sokpop prior to this and their business model. Didn't knew that stacklands hit the jackpot. Well done to them!
I hope you will cover my game when I'm close to finish lol
finally the lore project begins, yes!
Loving my SokPop patreon subscription! $3 is such a low price point for such quality games!
Loved this format
I loved the video, if it's possible I think a new series like this would be great for the channel!
Great format, please, add more!
I have this game. actualy I think I heard of it on this channel. Is good. Card games sells well, people just love it to find combinations of cards and the random prize of a boost
"boy band of indie game dev…" I cringe so hard at this….
Love this format! More please! 🤩
I really liked this new video format. Great analysis.
Nice vid, I had no idea stacklands became popular, I'm happy for sokpop
Very instructive and interesting.
please more of these videos 🙂 really inspiring to hear what they did right and how to approach some problems 🙂
How can i see game stats like in 1:27?
✈
👍
Thats super impressive. Awesome for them.
Cool video man, would love to see more like this!
Video Essay, Nice, been waiting for you to make something like this, I like Deep dives, hope you'll make more of this.
Dude i remember you mentioned a roguelie game where you use cards to attack ex fire ball card
Also you play as red haired girl please do you remember its name ??
Sokpop Games r just awesome
Clemmy, I'm blown away by the concise, informative, and useful info you packed into this video. Absolutely love to see more deep dives into successful launches like this. It's inspiring, entertaining, and educational. Thanks for all your effort. This is next level stuff right here! 🤜💥🤛
Too many games! OMG! My backlog is just so huge. 😆😆😆
But I do love these types of formats.
Excellent video Clemmy! ♥♥
