  • Impressive dude, hope you find a publisher.

  • Nice job you did there, bob! I'm so gonna buy it!

  • This makes the videogames world keep going. Awesome.

    Where can i buy it?

    BYEBYE

  • Hats off to you man. Keep up the good work. I am so happy to see enthusiastic programmer like you.

    BTW how did you start off? I wanna follow your path. ^^

  • This a very impressive game, you are indeed a talented man and you were right, why couldn't the big companies make quality like this?

  • please release it, and can you tell me how you amde those sounds?

  • BEAUTIFUL. You, sir, are a genious.

  • Das ist das Spiel worauf die Menschhet wartet,  BOB's Game hab die Demo is so cool das Game und Bob I hope you found an publisher

  • this is awesome

  • i absolutly LOVE this game, the tetrid is hard tho

  • When will this game come into Retail? I want to buy it and support you.

  • Wow You Gotta Get This Published. IT HAS TO BE.

  • Looks really good. May I ask which location of the world this game is being depicted? For e.g. Japan, America etc.

  • It would be awsome if u could play online with it and stuff, can yuu please send me the .rom of it so i can try it out pleeeaaaaaseeeee?

  • Comment removed

  • did you notice how the beginning o the video says "this is the game i always wanted as a kid that didn't exist, so i made it"? well, that kinda sums up why it is THIS way and not marketable. i'll sure as hell play it when it comes out.

  • awesome

  • this truly is awesome. love the music

  • Wow, this is really cool. :O

    Good job, Bob! :D

  • -.- tetrid = epic epic epic epic epic fail.

  • looks awesome kinda reminds me of dbz legacy of goku 1 & 2 for gba but looks great

  • Idk why, but I feel like getting a DS just for this game,

  • Do it for psp bitch.

  • kinda reminds me of mother 3 which is nothing but good, but the lack of gameplay being shown means you cant really say much about it

    also the camera looks abit annoying, putting you right at the front the screen as you run forwards

    still, love the whole "one guys vision" angle

  • He did show half of the gameplay in the second video "Gameplay Demo". The whole walk and talk, do quests aspect.

    There is another aspect to it though, in the game Yuu collect's games that you can play on ingame consoles. It's hard to explain, basically you get a DS in the game and you play these mini games to progress the story. They range from Retro Style games like Tetris (called Tetrid ingame) to modern style games.

    Think of Retro Game Challenge but with a 20 hour adventure game thrown in!

  • Hey Bob I asked for your autograph when this video first came out on my other tag, I have an android phone and I was wondering will you port bobs game to it?

  • He did say he was working on ports to the iPhone and Android platforms, among others.

  • start work for nintendo? :)

  • My entry to bobs game contest #2:

    2uJqv-cIdho

  • what game engine did you use?

  • He made his own engine from scratch. That's what he is demonstrating in this video, certain features of the engine such as the randomly generated crowds.

  • Is there an MP3 of the version of the opening theme used in this video?

  • I found an Arutoa!

    Sincerely, MC Gamer

  • tommorow the date will be 090909...? o.o i wonder if it means anything with the 090909 displayed on the site but its way too confusing to me @_@ tommorow is 100809 where i live because we say day before month... but back to my question, does 090909 mean tommorow?

  • no, Sptember 9th

  • pretty cool, but it could be perfect with a isometric design. i could help u with that... kuz i have design skills... but not programing... and stuff like that =(

  • Nice.

  • Comment removed

  • What Program did you use to Make this Game?

  • ROFL FAIL

  • if i were a publisher, i would publish this game in an instant o_o

  • Cant waaait for this game!

    Third podcast on the forum was total awesome crap n_n'' exept for one thing,, which Im not going to say.

  • you mean where gBev and Elijah played guitar the whole time and nothing else happened....if you know what I mean

  • This would be a cool game.

  • So, it's basically a game about the life he couldn't live because he was too busy making this game?

  • Did you guys know that this was all just a viral advertisement?

    Go check the other vids and Destructoid article about why did he make this "game".

    It sounded great!

  • no the viral ad was a viral ad this is actually going into production...unless thats what you meant

  • seems like a good game, to bad i want more action and slaughter type of games XD just runnin around doin random sh1t might be fun 2-3h, but i think it will get boring afetr a while.

    keep goin tho, i think there is a huge market for this :O

  • I just checked your forum,, and I'm wondering if you are still alive or something O_o

    You posted on the 8th of April: 'Demo 2 will be ready for testing in a few days. There are a few surprises on the way... Yuu guys are gonna like this. ;}'

    A few days? ö is there even going to be a second demo? Because right now its the 9th of June, two months later <:/

    Im just afraid you gave up on trying to find a publisher, and just threw the whole idea away :(

  • DUUDE I seriously cant wait to play the full game!! Please keep searching for a publicer : D

  • Dude Bob! Hehe sounds weird, my name is Bob too n_n . I downloaded your demo,, and it's AWESOME! :D Even when the demo is pretty short, find the batteries and beat tetrid, you still get a good impression of the game, because you can interact with people and objects. When are you going to release a second demo? Cant wait! You should really get money for the full version, cuz I already know the full version rocks! Good luck with finding a producer! Wanna play the full version soon : D

  • Oops sorry I posted a negative comment Bob but I see you already went ahead and deleted it so I guess it doesn't matter. It gives a ton of credibility to you when you only let good comments last!

  • Best game I've ever seen! Better than most professionally made modern games.

  • this game is awsome !!!! i think its great

  • it does make you wonder why the hell they cant finish duke nukem forever

  • they can't finish it because the company went bankrupt, so duke nukem forever is forever finished.

  • Because the management / developers / some idiots knew they'd get paid more if they dragged it out for like 15 years and then let it die.

  • Hey guys, the demo's out. It really is a gem of a game. Tetrid is a hard game...

  • This is awesome! i really cant wait to get my hands on this game! You are a genius Bob! Best of luck with this and when you do get it out, ill be one of the first in line to pick it up!

  • I really really like the song. What is it?

  • if I created an entire game myself of this magnitude without using rpgmaker 2k i would be cocky too. but i also think thats part of his sense of humor. I support you bob, good luck. You deserve credit for this work. its better than many licensed ds games.

  • I would almost think this Whole "Bob's game" scene is one big conspiracy theory in order to create fame and fans,and after that releasing it on another platform to make big $. But I dont think that is whats happening at all, I have deep respect for you'r effords in creating a game like this Bob. This goes into my list of inspirational video's for programmers. I want to get into the game industry and i am sure you filled my inspirational needs to succeed. I'd like to say: Thanks!

  • The demo is quite cool

  • You know, I'm just about certain that this wouldn't really affect Nintendo, but what the hell....have you tried a petition?

  • I just don't like how Bob was so cocky saying it's the biggest game by one person, how much he gloated about this game, seeing him get slapped in the face by Nintendo was something he deserved.

  • Two words: Viral Ad. It was fake the whole time, the Bob that he was being was the in-game Bob, making a game called Bob's Game, hence the title of the actual game.

  • That doesn't make any sense. At all.

  • hey arutoa!!! *tomatoe-spams*

  • tHe BoB's GaME weB siTe BaNDeD mE

  • Stop that.

  • I FounD yOu ouT tODaY....anD MaN, yOu DiD wHaT MoST oF uS waNT tO dO....D.I.Y.

    I HoPe yOu GeT tHis ouT......PeaCe

  • still no publisher??

  • The greatest game of the world \O/

    Congratulations :D

  • Awesome man!

  • congratulations!!

  • im not into games like this and i dont have a DS but i watched and its pretty awesome how you made this just because you wanted a game that you would like

    good for you

  • I noticed this runs under a GBA emulator and in addition only uses a single screen. Is this just a GBA game, meaning that it won't run under the DSi?

  • No, if you're talking about no$gba it's a nds emulator and a gba emulator in the same program. it uses the second screen to show the map.. it's a double screen game, it's for nds.

  • i played ur demo, it was fun and awsome,,

    i dont get y u cant find a publisher

    SUP :D

  • bland game

  • Can Yuu Drive?

  • I like it. it's cool, not because of the engine, graphics, etc. It's because it's "different". Pretty cool =D !!

  • If this is done, I will buy it. I will donate, I will support this.

    Bob for president

  • pure talent :D

  • ¡Hace un año!

    Cago en san dios...

    Puto máquina el tal Bob, joder.

  • Get a fuggin life

  • make Yuu play frogger on the busy road.

  • the only thing i don't understand is why does bob always refer to you as yuu, also why has'nt a major company paid bob to make/ sell this game in the real world it's one of the best i've seen.

  • no battles? more space to the communications and puzzles? WHY THE FUCK SHOULD I BUY SUCH A PUSSY GAME!

  • ☻/

    /▌

    / \ this is bob, copy and paste him so he will take over youtube

  • The grassy tile on Demo One looks strikingly(seriously).. You might wanna improve on that. The rest is just awesome. Till further notice.

  • It was c, it's a little diferent, like malloc to put some things in mem, now i'm deving a game for psp.

  • Badly designed..just like this game!

    No but seriously, just because you make a game really big doesnt make it good. Its like he just kept going with the joke.

    Amen to the bit about rpg maker. This aint a masterpiece.

  • I seriously cant wait to play the rest of this game, the demo was awesome! Even the dialogue was genuinely funny, something alot of games miss the mark with.

    PS: is anyone else returning to this video just for the music?.... no? just me? oh well :P

  • This is extremely impressive. I hope you manage to get it developed fully!

  • LimeAndPepper LEARN TO DEV FIRST

  • I would have loved to play this

  • Hi Bob, i think yuu did a real nice job.

    If you don't get your work licenced. Try to sell your techniques to a software developer. Before one tries to steal 'your' idea's.

    grts. lans

  • god, looks like a mother game, but without battles. looking forward to this, but then it's dead to nintendo. here's hoping it goes up on xbla.

  • Looks awesome!

    I'd buy it in a heart beat!

    Someone please publish it!

  • It's not hard to make something with RPGMaker. lol

  • Hi if you find a publisher you could probably resell the engine with a good license.

    All best from Penpvdbs

  • So its like mother except instead of being really fucking good, its a total piece of shit.

  • This is hot man, I love every bit of it! You have dedication to pull it off like that, and yeah it looks very Professional. Great work man... ;D

  • Im gonna put the demo on my ds in a minute,

    looks awesome, nice work!

  • I would love to buy this game. I'm incredibly impressed by your work.

  • Why do people still play this 2D crap? Buy a xbox 360 faggots.

  • Because games need to be 3D to be good? I'd love to hear your logic of why.

  • Lol you only play crappy games i think 2D is great to, only asses who are always going with the hype and buy Disney games always wants 3D graphics.

  • Disney games? Surely, this big eyed cartoon shit looks more disney than even the cartooniest xbox 360 game. Fucking casual gaming sandniggers.

  • lets see you make a game

  • I'm laughing about you. :D

    This isn't going to be a Casual game. A Casual game is like WiiSports. This game is ging to be hardcore.

    Oh, so this looks more Disney like Disney's cars? (I think that's what that racing game was called.)

    So.. where's your point Mr. Fanboy?

  • WOW....what are you, 12?

    probably are....you were most likely born into the 3D genre and don't know how to appreciate games for what they are

    go play mario on the SNES and zelda as well....learn what games were about back then

    graphics aren't what games are about....and 3D isn't always needed in todays standards...just yours evidently...such a shame

  • Whats this game then? In my eyes its a weeaboo ripoff japanese games from 1995.

    And you won't be taken seriously if you spell like that faggot.

    3D wasn't needed by the standards in the year 2000, now, it kinda is.

    And what are you bullshitting with your snes? I was born in the fucking ataria age bitch.

  • wow...your awesome

    Hey everyone...come check how awesome this guy is

  • Actually...I concur with him.

    This dude is nothing more than manchild, who's now throwing a temper tantrum.

  • I have to say, it's a charming for a game that was made by just one person. I envy your knowledge of C.

  • I hate games where you walk faster than the screen. why didn't he make it so the sprite is centered the whole time, he did it for running and walking, but not for the normal speed

  • Just got the demo version of this. It's cool at the start... but geez, Tetris is a bit hard in it D:

  • This looks proper decent, as soon as this game is out, I'll definitely get it!

  • man when is this game gonna be released im dying to play it :(

  • Maybe it isn't ever going ot be released. he's searching for a publsiher right now.

  • Love the BGM. The games looks pretty expansive, I wonder if he ever considered porting to XBLA.

  • I'd buy it

  • been waiting 2 years for this.

    well, less waiting.

    but i heard about it ~2 years ago.

    kudos, i know i don't have the patience for a 5-year self-imposed project. kudos.

  • Garbage.

  • this might be worth downloading

  • Will buy this! Can Yuu do anything more then runaround and exploer and make friends. Like Push people around ? Or have a pet?

  • Gotta tell ya, Robert, I'm impressed.

  • nice job man! i would like to have this game!

  • maybe it's just me, but you aren't going to attract publishers by putting random :) :3 :]'s in your annotations.

  • This game fucking sucks.

  • @TommyTipper

    Because you've TOTALLY played, amirite? ;)

  • Good thing you've never played it, right TommyTipper?

  • I like Anime!

    AND MANGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.

    AND GAYMEN.

    AW DDR.

  • /v/ does not approve.

  • Comment removed

  • yes it is unique and has good music (but it's not j-pop), yet we haven't even seen the main gameplay.

  • Cheap ripoff of TWEWY.

  • -.-  how exactly?

  • >_> just look at it...

  • looks nothing like twewy, to me

  • It does. It's weird, it has an usual gameplay style, and the music is upbeat.

  • really? even though this game was in development 5 years ago?

    yea...i'm sure he went to the future...got TWEWY and decided that hey...i'm gonna rip this game off

    yea...really happened, true story

    /sarcasm

    some games look like some games...when there is about a million games out there...some games are BOUND to look like other games...it's just what happens

  • I love games with your kind of art style, I hope Bob's game gets picked up!

  • for one dude u pretty much thought of everything

  • God bob... Bob.... Amazing, i love you. If your game never gets published PLEASE sell it yourself like preloaded on romcarts or something, id easily pay 60$ for this masterpiece, coming from a guy who never buys games brand new, thats saying alot especially since thats higher than the price of a new DS game... i love you bob...

  • thats looks... FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!! its got so much charm. ive been wanting to get into game development, that one guy could build that by himself...wow, thats just amazing.

  • Dude... By the way Bob this is not a joke, i am honestly going to buy a DS, just, to play this game... I don't own a DS but now I have a better reason to own one. lol!

  • Hey mad pumpkin, any good tutorials you know of off hand for C++? Thats what im studying at my university.

    Thanks

  • Yes sir! For good C\++ tutorials go to my page and i'm about to put up some links for various C\++\# tutorials, and libraries for them. your welcome to go to any site on my page! and soon when i am done building my website, and actually put it online, i'll possibly make a tutorial section!

    Thank you! any more questions just ask!

  • Angry Video Game Nerd says: "I´m SOO happy" when reviewing this game.

  • AVGN reviewed SMB3 =3

  • I don't care what anyone says. I am really looking forward to playing this game.  Good job Bob.

  • how bob completely amazing...spending 5 years of your life makin this awesome game...i really want to play this looks really great....kudos to ya bro and keep up the good work

  • You should definitely write a guide on this game.. I'm really wondering what kind of events can happen, based on the time or season etc. Please tell? :D

  • I'm especially looking forward to all the characters.. and their personalities. Especially to see them evolve, how you describe it. Aah, I just want to try it. Even once.

  • This is tight. Awesome job!

  • that's a good question! Will there be wi-fi?

  • How did you obtain the knowledge to make such a masterpiece? I am a computer Science Major in my 2nd year of college right now and I couldnt see myself making anything of this complexity for a good few years. Care to provide any insight on game design and programming in general?

    Thanks

    Gary B.

  • Whahz up Gary B.!

    This is Josh H., and i just want to tell you that there is SOO many tutorials for all kinds of programming languages, so please tell me what language you are wanting to use to make a game and i will send you a proper tutorial to get you started

    sincerely, Mad Pumpkin.

  • I got that Earthbound vibe too.

    It looks great, and the music is nice.

  • "bob's game"良いゲームですね。

    僕なら認めますよ。

  • 1500 hours.. That's sick!

    I'm on 350 hours for my GBA game "Trogdor", wich is about half done now..

  • 15,000.

    8-10 hours a day for five years.

  • I meant 15000, forgot a 0..;)

  • Comment removed

  • Dude this game looks Amazing. I'm a programmer myself and I understand how much work that you must have put into your game which deserves major respect. Don't listen to any of the people flaming your game or how you describe it, you are proud of your accomplishment and should not let anyone put you down for it. I will definitely buy your game if/when/however it is released to be able to experience a game that 'one man' put his heart and soul into. Keep fighting! Never give up! :D

  • I want to see the Angry Nintendo Nerd review this. Then I'd think about playing it.

  • :D this is the sort of game I wanted back when I was a kid, I've always loved RPG's, but the battles got REALLY boring after a while. I've always wanted to make a game, but I really don't know where to start. Props to you man! I hope to play this game one day. And who knows, maybe I'll attempt making a game some day haha! Good luck :D

  • Wow man. I am fucking impressed, seriously. Give yourself a pat on the back and then pack a celebratory bowl.

  • Nice, if this game came out, it might make me get a DS...

  • That game looks really fun, you can expect me to buy it if it comes out

  • This looks truly amazing. Not necessarily my style of game but truly impressive. When I say "not my style" I simply mean that I'm not really into "modern" as a game setting. Unless it's a first person shooter. I really hope you get this released as an officially title for the Nintendo DS. Good luck.

  • are you forshadowing something?

  • i must say i am impressed, bob... but your conceitedness fully disgusts me. Every time i hear or see anything about this game, i see "I made this game all by my self" and "souly made by one person" everywhere. Its in bad taste to publicly announce your self thought amazingness. This isnt to say that this game isnt impressive. You have acted like a complete child and have a bloated ego.

    You have lost my support a while ago, Bob.

  • It's almost like I'm some kind of villain...

  • so you're saying it's impressive that he made this big ass thing by himself, but you don't like him saying that he made the entire thing himself? so what should he say? that he made everything from scratch but you know, no big deal anybody can do it.

  • While I don't completely agree with the way Bob has acted to recent events I think he is just proud of his accomplishment and put things like "a game by one person" because he is proud what he has created, and while some things make him appear to have a bloated ego like "why don't large companies think of these things?" I don't think they should be interpreted as "I'm the best." Imaging yourself in Bob's shoes, you teach yourself C, you spend 5 years working on your dream. It's understandable

  • why he might seem to have this huge ego. I would have liked to see this game on the DS. It would have been better if Bob had done some research and looked into other possibilities for release instead of pouring everything into one chance. Mr. Pelloni I found the way you acted to be a bit childish and over the top, but I can't imagine how you must've felt. Even so, I wish you luck with your endeavors.
