  • Sports games are unpopular for the next 6 months. Boot Manager is a sports game. Might as well make another sports game as well. This is in no way a bad idea.
    Side note : Today has been all book writing all the time, only just now did I think "is today's video prepped to go live?" The answer was no. However I've recified that now.
    This is in no way any kind of subtle reference to the fact that there's a book coming. You know that already, don't you?

    Dear Vuvu Boys,
    As a longtime fan I'm very excited to see the legendary Boot Manager is coming back. I would love to see a Cowboys & Colonisation revival as well, perhaps even a Cowboys & Corporations crossover with Conquest Corporation?
    PS Congrats on a well earned GotY for Minotourism Z!

    Guys, please stop asking. Yes, I HAVE seen the demo of Boot Manager 2000. As far as the game goes, yeah, it's got better graphics, but like most enthusiasts, I really can't stand the lazy approach to sounds. You're telling me they have all those crazy Minotaur sounds in their other game, but they can't be bothered to record all the different kinds of turf and grass and gravel that a boot runs across??? Total immersion-killer for me. After playing the game all these years, I know the sounds of different kinds of dirt and these are not them!
    But yeah, let's be fair, it's just a demo. They have plenty of time to take our feedback into account and send the devs back to fix the game before release.
    If you need a copy, check out that magazine that has the CD-ROM in it every month. I tried to burn one and I couldn't get it to work. So stop asking me.

      We are just confused why the Boys are running TV campaigns for Gun Bunny Afterlife (which we've all bought or nicked already) and not the new stuff. Now excuse me, I need to hack the copy protection on Plutonium Squad with that special utility I got off some geezer down the Barras.

    Booty isn't a sports game, it's a puzzle adventure about cleaning and fashion or something reasonable like that. :)

      @@MrGeneralScarto be fair, stuffed animals were pretty central to the Vuvu Boys brand in the early days.

    Your TV Campaign that didnt do much for Plutonium Squad Ultra's hype, did so because you run the TV Campaign on Gun Bunny Afterlife instead. 13:05
    Looking forward to the next instalment.

    It's kinda hilarious how this game makes you develop games at a loss to boost the sales of your hyper profitable consoles that keep the company afloat.

    • @colonelfailure
      @colonelfailure  Před 8 měsíci +6

      That's how it works in reality. The only upside is that if you're an early mover on a new gen console and it sells at warp speed you can be a must-buy for early adopters.
      Realistically however, every console manufacturer loss leads with software to drive the platform adoption rate.

    TV campaign for Gun Bunny... are you sure?

    I assume having two ep 55's in a row wasnt part of the grand plan?!
    But will the colonel skip ep.56 to get back on track and really throw us off?
    Loving your work as always! Keep it up.

    awe man... Wing Captain popped up... I really enjoyed Wing Commander back during that time period. Woot! what I wouldn't give for a good post-apocalyptical team simulator at that time... ala Road Warrior. Ultima, meh. Will just have to wait for fallout. Starting to come into some good hardware soon as well as cre8tive sound and game innovations... got to love it!

    You should have a team for porting old games to the new console. Easily boost the game line up and generate sales for little money outlay

    • @colonelfailure
      @colonelfailure  Před 8 měsíci

      Ports don't work that way in this game. You can port between platform types but not within the same genus. So, console to arcade yes. Console to new console no.

    Wait there's a book?! I must've missed that. To be fair though; I'm only on-and-off watching this series and I've missed a lot of the Saturday Social Streams due to conflicting schedules.
    There's a book coming, keyword coming. Missed that one. Editing it in. My bad.

    Do you plan on a Cities skyline video tomorrow? Or later in the week? It's my most anticipated content from you! Ever since you (rightfully) got bored playing Transport fever I've been waiting for you to dig your teeth into something similar.
