    Fun Fact, upper case and lower case got their names because the letters were literally in the upper and lower case of the type setting desk.

    • @undying3132
      @undying3132 Před 15 dny +2

      What were they called before those desks exists?

    • @FudaFilms
      @FudaFilms Před 15 dny +11

      Capital Letters and Small Letters, Majuscule and Mainuscule... that's it as far as I know.

      That was a fun fact. I really didn’t know that

    Not gonna lie, a newpaper named "The Quill" would be fire. Simple and nice.

  • @Dexi
    @Dexi Před 16 dny +14

    The Bruins did indeed win 14 games in a row from 1929-12-03 to 1930-01-09

    @amshermansen Před 17 dny +21

    Love the pace and theme. Only thing missing is that old timey radio voice covering big news stories, and a newspaper crier going EXTRA EXTRA, READ ALL ABOUT IT

    This Just In! We want more News Tower Lets Play.

    I kind of dig this game so far. Would like to see more of this, Quill.

    I don't think I'd enjoy playing this game, but I love watching you play it. I hope this series continues!

    Can't wait for a third installment of this series: Harlem Reporter and the Printer of Azkhaban

    The Bruins did win their 14th game of the season on January 8the, 1930.

    • @thomashjelm2928
      @thomashjelm2928 Před 16 dny +2

      According to Wikipedia, it set a record for most consecutive wins that wasn't broken until 1982! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1929%E2%80%9330_Boston_Bruins_season

    A stenographer is someone who takes a full written verbatim record using shorthand (so they can keep up in real time). Definitely not the telegraph users, they're more like operators. The news is all about taking on bits and pieces of statements, and putting it together to tell the story you're wanting to tell.

    49:03 laughed out loud, “well that’s NEWS to me” 😂

  • @TopaT0pa

    I'd watch a whole series of this =)

  • @jonathanmensch9698

    The newsroom building aspect gives me Project Highrise vibes.

    • @Old_Ladies
      @Old_Ladies Před 17 dny +1

      A bit of Mad Games Tycoon 2 vibes as well.

  • @RyanofAndor
    @RyanofAndor Před 17 dny +4

    Got this game when it launched into early access. Devs are very active and constantly updating the game.

  • @crit-c4637

    I'd love to see a playthrough of this.

    what a fun little concept! Hopefully there's some more of this to come

  • @user-nx4jw9qi3q

    Must...have...more! Love the premise and execution of this game and your content.

    Great idea for a game. Thanks for showcasing.

  • @HenryLoenwind
    @HenryLoenwind Před 8 dny

    Paper works so much better in the input station than in the output station of the printing press. ;)
    And, BTW, you can connect stairs directly to the entrance door on the second floor. Saves a bit of floor space.

  • @JG-te7hk
    @JG-te7hk Před 7 dny

    The game is very well made! Putting wall with doors between the printing machine and the door block a lot of noise and temperature.

  • @author.jessica.kemery
    @author.jessica.kemery Před 14 dny

    Such a fun game. I picked it up and have played 20 hours already. Can't wait to see where this is going to go

  • @Ty_-ht1mp
    @Ty_-ht1mp Před 17 dny +2

    19:42 The Boston Bruins win did actually happen. I don't know about the others though, too vague.

  • @kman6004
    @kman6004 Před 17 dny +1

    Looks good, hoping for a full lets play when the game comes out

  • @RyanPatrickOwens

    This looks like the kid of game I could sink HOURS into.

    Hey Quill!
    Is it possible to add the playlist this episode is a part of, to the video description as a general thing for all of your videos? It makes it easier to find the associated playlist

  • @windar2390

    Looks awesome.
    Another game that I have to buy...

    What a great game, nice change from the "usual" types of tycoon.

    Amazingly fun game. I hope you do a small early access series for it!

  • @loopcub

    Really interesting game. I know what my weekend will be and I hope we see more videos of it from you.

    The Xcom style news room idea really appeals to me.

    Great Let's Try, I really hope you make a Let's Play with this game

    Awesome game, would love to see 1 more episode to have an idea of how it progresses

    Any more of this coming? I thought this was really interesting. I would love to see you play it out

  • @Karthos1000
    @Karthos1000 Před 14 dny

    I've been hesitating to get this game because of the Early access tab, but it looks like they do have some serious depth on what they do have. Mayhaps I should pick it up.

  • @offchance789
    @offchance789 Před 17 dny +1

    I checked some of the random news stories like the Bruins NHL wins, they're real!

  • @schattensonner
    @schattensonner Před 17 dny

    So.. Kind of "Mad News" + Project Highrise(or similiar games) with its own style..

  • @kevinlorenz791
    @kevinlorenz791 Před 11 dny

    I found you can connect your first stair to the main entrance

    I, as one of the fold, should feed our algorithmic overlord.

    Keep playing this

  • @Plague_Doc22
    @Plague_Doc22 Před 17 dny

    This reminds me SO MUCH of another game but I cant remember what its called. You build vertically like this as well, it's like the same genre. Dont think it's the same devs as I didnt find it on steam.

  • @gsvick
    @gsvick Před 17 dny +2

    Wait, you're literally printing on toilet paper?

  • @weckar
    @weckar Před 17 dny

    Reminds me of the EXTRA EXTRA boardgame.
    It looks fun, but like it might get repetitive?

    $50 for a trash bin in 1930?! And I thought Apple products were a rip-off, sheesh!

    @JakopDalunde Před 13 dny

    While the name sounds nice, it’s not really apt to call a weekly newspaper “Quotidian” 🤷🏼‍♂️
