- Alternate Title: I am in a Crypto Game
Ah, our old friends, the Epic Games Store. How I missed you. In today's #crypto and #nftgame deep dive, I accidentally uncovered a crypto game scam in progress. This game featured some of the most blatant copyright infringement I've ever seen, featuring copy/pasted open-source code, minus any attribution. Oopsies!
Luckily for them, we helped out by pushing an update to Vage Strike. Also, we banned them from their own game.
There are some other games in this video but they're really nothing more than speedbumps.
Thanks for watching!

"Hash and slack" would actually be a good genre, make the whole game look like a drug-trip and not require much effort.
Alternatively it is still a hack and slash genre game but it’s story and gameplay is a parody of the genre and both highlights the strengths and problems of the genre overall. Both seem like fitting project to earn the title

@@hoodiegalIt's a psychological horror game about being high in a meeting at work and thinking everyone knows, when in fact, no one cares.
There’s a game out there that I’d consider to be a perfect fit for this description. Ever heard of Juice World? It’s a goddamn LSD trip of a game.
18:54 I had an aneurysm over this steam locomotive. From what I can see: It's an Atlantic (4 leading wheels, 4 driving wheels, 2 trailing wheels) that looks like it's from the 1930's trying to pass itself off as a Ten-Wheeler (4 leading wheels, 6 driving wheels, no trailing wheels) from the 1880's. The handrails around the smokebox (the front) look like they took it off another locomotive and slapped it onto the design, the pilot at the front looks like a short skirt compared to a cow-catcher pilot that would be there.The smokestack looks like someone squashed an actual shotgun stack from a locomotive from the 1800's. The whole running board looks modern. There's pipes that go to nowhere. The air compressors don't look connected to anything. The headlight looks like an electric one-compared to the oil lamps that would actually be used. The domes look like they took if off a Baldwin-pattern from the early 1900's. The cab looks like it was actually made out of steel in real life but the devs made it look like wood. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY THE CYLINDERS LOOK ABSOLUTELY WRONG, THEY LOOK LIKE THE MOMENT THERE'S PRESSURE IN THEM, THE CYLINDERS CAPS SHOOT OFF BECAUSE YOU DESIGNED THEM THAT BAD IN THE FIRST PLACE.; WHY IS THERE A TUBE RUNNING FROM ONE CYLINDER TO THE OTHER, YOU DON'T NEED THAT, THE ONLY PLACES THE CYLINDERS ARE CONNECTED TO ARE THE CYLINDER SADDLE AND EXHAUST, AND BOTH OF THOSE THINGS AREN'T THAT. You can slow down the video and count the amount of times the wheels move. I fear what the inside of the cab looks like, because I can only imagine it looks as dogwater as the rest of that crypto game.
I wouldn't be surprised if the train is AI designed.

Here from Red Eclipse. Thank you for your help and happy to have you with us! Sad and pathetic what scammers are getting up to these days, especially when they aren't even making an actual playable game in the process but are too lazy to bother simulating one playable level just to make it look legit.
What does cubehead upside eyes man mean for the lore 🗣
I miss red eclipse so much. I'm here cause I saw ppl talking about Jauwn in Red Eclipse's discussions.
@@muchotexto4248 I have never heard of Red Eclipse until now, but if I were to guess, probably some eldritch being capable of traversing parallel worlds and with incredible powers. But remained in that universe to protect it from the insidious replicryptors.
And occasionally partake in the fun death games.
I love how you completely destroyed those crypto bros.
And props for keeping a worthwhile game alive for that long. Will check it out, looks very promising.
I had never heard of red eclipse until the algorithm showing me this video for a RUclipsr I've never watched. But you can bet I'm now subscribed to said RUclipsr and going to check the game out!
That whole "You can transfer a pickaxe from Minecraft to use in Call of Duty" thing will never make economic sense because game companies would much rather sell you 2 NFTs (one for each game) because then they both get a sale, or if they're already under the same umbrella (in this case, Microsoft) and do want to be nice and sell you only 1, *they can already do this without an NFT*, and it'll cost them far less to do so.
I know that example is probably based on the absurdism of it, but I love the concept of a Minecraft Pickaxe in Call of Duty. How would that even work?
Would it be a fancy skin for the small knives? A special weapon that is basically that, but with more range and less strength? Or a weirdass tool that allows you to dig tunnels into the maps?
Because I assume cryptobros generally picture the last option when even the second feels unreasonable to expect
@@dr.archaeopteryx5512You import your favourite Elden Ring weapon into Call of Duty. It scales with faith and arcane. What does that even mean in the world of Call of Duty? It’s gibberish. Even just moving a gun between gun games doesn’t work because something that might be mid in one game would be useless in another and ridiculously overpowered in a different one. Even if they could somehow make it work, all it would do is ruin the balance of every game that did it.
@@robertlee2092 They're cryptobros, do you think they actually understand how games work? Even from a development standpoint even on the same engine you probably can't take a thing and slap into a different game without breaking something.
@@snil4 I’m not sure why you’re asking if crypto bros know how games work, most of them don’t even know how crypto works
"This would be *way* better for consumers" they all claim, blissfully unaware that that's the exact reason it will never happen. It's like they forget that they're not the only ones that will be able to screw other people over with NFTs, and big companies have been perfecting this art for decades.
Welcome to crypto games! We have:
-Lyra asset flips
-Games missing nearly every basic feature
-semi-competant games that literally don't need crypto integration

That bit regarding the "Nigerian Entrepreneur" just screams Nigerian Prince scam 😂
Some day someone from Nigeria will do something legit and nobody will trust him because of decades of Nigerian scams.
Why do they all choose Nigeria, anyway?
Nigeria is a rapidly emerging market, lots of people live there, and not all the businesses are regulated (at least effectively) and so you get more organised scams out of there.
The fact that the Vagina Strike "developers" couldn't even be bothered to take screenshots themselves is fucking staggering. They couldn't even be bothered to remove the files that Steam puts there. It would've taken five, maybe ten minutes in total, and even that was too much work for them.
More like a single narrcisistic small time con artist. I doubt any of the other 5 portraits are even real.
They even were too lazy to host their own server and instead used ours. :D So hilarious!

Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear a goofy surrealist cube.
I always loved Red Eclipse's HUD, it borrows the on-crosshair ammo counter from Goldeneye and the peripheral radar from Tremulous. Everything is engineered to let you lock your eyes firmly onto the center of the screen, without giving up readability of key information mid-combat.
I’ve never heard of Red Eclipse prior to this video, so in a weird roundabout way their game getting stolen by a bunch of grifters might’ve actually been a blessing in disguise.
This is maybe some of the best exposure the game could have gotten. Thousands of people just found it for the first time by chance.
imo it lines up pretty well with the valve 25th anniversary thing from a while back too. most people like free things, they buy half-life when it was free and get into first person shooters, and now they see a free first person shooter?

While there's a well-deserved focus on Red Eclipse, let's also not forget 0 AD, The House, and Edelweiss. Do give those games a check, they seem fun.
Edelweiss is fun. It is on itch and can be played in a browser.
16:18 Minor nitpick but Red Eclipse is using a very specific kind of Creative Commons license. CC BY-SA means that if I were to release Vage Strike, I'd have to 1. credit the original dev by linking the original project and 2. distribute Vage Strike under the same CC BY-SA license and since Quin didn't even know, clearly they never got permission to change that.
That whole Vage Strike arc...
Fooking legend, man.
Vage strike, i mean seriously?! I can't even 😆
maybe the real vage strike was the friends we made along the way
I seriously can't comprehend the audacity of using the same server you stole from. It blew my mind. Like a thief storing the stuff he stole from you in your bedroom cupboard.
I can’t think of any harder way to assert dominance over one’s own IP than bricking the stolen game and saying “hey check out our game”. Fuck filing a copyright take down, they were so lazy it wasn’t worth the time 😂.

The Vage Strike dev asking the Red Eclipse dev to join "his game" as an advisor truly is a Palpatine like moment.

yeah, even just the single discord message he showed basically ended up saying:
1. Don't worry, I already blamed someone else for my blatantly trash behavior and gave them hell for it.
2. Let's find some common ground and move past this so I don't have to acknowledge any of my mistakes.
3. I'd be happy to give back to the project *we* are working *together* on, but...
4. There's just one problem. The game being open source isn't enough support for me -to blatantly rip you off- . Could you at least give me _some_ form of support, or are you going to just sit there and do nothing for me?

@@jauwn even better
The fact the game is free makes it even more good

Losing it at the whole 'pushing an update to Vage Strike bc they use Red Eclipse Servers' bit, that's so fucking good, and the fact that it bricks the stolen version of the game is even better.
The genre of person who likes crypto is almost always devoid of any creativity that it's shocking.
So they always have to exploit workers, or just steal another game.
It's because people who enjoy crypto only enjoy it because it will supposedly make them rich. They have the mentality of people who are rich with actual money without having that money.
They spit nonsense about freeing people from corrupt financial state-controlled systems, but show time and time again that they have plentiful amount of all traits that make that system corrupt. So all what cryptobro (and all libertatians in general) want is replace system with even worse one but with them on the top
5:45 Worst than that, it's more expensive to purchase in bulk. For example, 100 gold is 0.99$, so how much should it be 40,000 gold (400 times the gold)?
400 x $0.99 = $396.00
But the store is charging $399.99 for the bulk purchase (in other words, overcharging $3.99 just for purchasing in bulk). I can't tell if it's intentional or if they are that incompetent at math...
That takedown of vage strike is beautiful. It’s also amazing that he gave you credit too. Props to Quin and the red eclipse team!!

God damn, I did not expect to hear about GRIT, though I shouldn't be surprised. Some of the devs used to work in Uber Entertainment / Star Theory Games, including the president of the company himself.
When their first game, Monday Night Combat failed, they reworked it and released Super Monday NIght Combat... which failed as well. At some point, they even partnered with a crypto company and created an optional crypto miner that rewarded players with lootbox keys.
They went on to start a Kickstarter campaign for Planetary Annihilation, which met its funding goal... only for them to fail to deliver the game in a satisfactory state. They quickly started a new Kickstarter campaign for Human Resources while Planetary Annihilation was still in need of more development. The campaign was cancelled when it was clear the goal will not be reached.
When they announced GRIT, I just knew it would fail, simply because of the competition in the battle royale scene. The fact that they made it into a crypto game is just laughable. My only question is: did they plan this from the beginning or was this yet another desperate attempt at saving yet another failing project?
Dude WTF I used to love SMNC. That game fell off so hard so quickly. I had no idea they had anything to do with GRIT. Guess it doesn't surprise me that it was just a scam though
Isn't it interesting that all these crypto bros can't cobble together anything even half-way decent despite millions upon millions of dollars being thrown at them, but a bunch of bedroom devs working on a budget of literally $0 doing it just for fun made a game that's so much better than all of them that they just stole it.
It’s funny and sad because Ive heard that blockchain tech may have some legitimate uses but these clowns have basically squandered it and made it a joke
it's because the bedroom devs actually care about making video games instead of just profit

_Exactly this._ For ALL their talk and talk about "true digital ownership" allowing you to "use your stuff anywhere, this is the fUtUrE of gaming" ... even in the Crypto space, _as it exists, right now,_ no one is actually doing that! I wonder why! 😆
@@blakksheep736 Imagine having to make a billion models in your game so crypto bros can use their minecraft sword in call of duty.

It's my duty to mention that micro transactions being cheaper in bulk is a strategy to get the player to spend more money, not give them more value
The reason things in bulk are cheaper IRL is because physical items you buy a larger amount of take less manpower, material, and shipping space to get to you
For instance 4 quarter gallon bottles of shampoo may take up the same space as a single 1.25 gallon of shampoo, so more volume can be shipped
A micro transaction is nearly intangible, literally electrons in a wire, so selling more of it at once doesn't make it cheaper to produce and ship, but it does make the player feel like they get less value if they don't give more money
In other words, the cheapest ratio of currency is the actual price of the digital good, and everything else is inflated to manipulate you
Anyway great vid, I just have a vendetta against microtransactions
I wouldn't mind so much if the money produced from MTs went back into the games we buy or back to the programmers, but instead they almost always just pay the bonus of some douche like Bobby Kotick. That's without even mentioning crap like this situation.
I almost feel bad for the people that support these...Almost.
Crypto games are the consequence of giving internet access to the 3rd world.
I do feel bad, but bad for me
Just finished the "All Jauwn" playlist and I really enjoy the content. Seeing the evolution in terms of editing and style has been really cool. Keep it up!

@@Yuri-nc9vl There are of course dozens of little things I could have listed here.
@@TheGrimGary I for one know what one thing will be on my bingo card.
you know, as someone who has done programming, I absolutely hate the idea that "crypto would enable you to port items between games" because its just...no. I don't want to do that and I'm sure _no_ developer wants to. That's probably why even these crypto games are all reliably insular, why _would_ you go to that effort?! You wouldn't and its why basically none of them do.
Think Ninesquirrels made a video saying just this. Check it out!
As someone who has played video games that would either destroy game balance or be purely cosmetic and either way it's not a selling point. As someone who thought about this for two seconds you wouldn't need an nft to do that and an nft wouldn't make it better.
I don't have any programming experience but even the idea of "porting items" as these cryptobros think is just a complete pain if not impossible since wouldn't all these games running on their own code if not entirely different engines and the like? Then again, thse crypto bros care only the money and are more less just rig pullers and scammers.
@@Chinothebadyeah, it was always a nonsensical claim, made by people who had no idea what they were talking about, or assumed the people they were selling to wouldn't.
This probably ties into the "metaverse" hype bubble too. One of the few ways to make the promise of NFT in-game items plausible is if everyone's playing in the same overarching engine/codebase. Like, it's reasonably possible to port items & cosmetics across different Roblox games, though the devs of the individual games still get to decide what those items *do* - your +3 Broadsword of Extirpation isn't going to have the same stats in Adopt-a-Duck as it does in Violence Quest 6000 unless the devs want it to. And of course Roblox doesn't use NFTs to accomplish any of this because, why would they?
@@KSignalEingang one can bet they'd bank on the average Joe's inexperience in how programming and the like works in regards to the "porting items" since it's one of the few excuses they'd have in trying to shill out NFT's in gaming. But even the average Joe ain't gonna buy it. Especially with just a little knowledge in knowing you can't "port pickaxes" into a wholly different game and expect it to work like these NFT bros claim.
Also to say, modders do porting more realistically anyway than these NFT bros couls claim, at least in seeing how a game like Skyrim has mods using direct model rips from Dark Souls or someone porting a Spongebob model right into G-Mod.
That red eclipse section was so wholesome. I'll give the game a try, they sure deserve it
I used to play Red Eclipse back in 2011 on a crappy core 2 duo laptop, I easily have put hundreds of ours in it and can still remember the main theme perfectly. Thanks for making me remember this gem. I'm so glad it's still being supported by the devs.
I always think it's funny seeing the "wonder how this video will age" comments, cause this account usually posts highly topical videos, riding a trend. Even now I see you slowly moving away from NFTs, which I encourage, it's much more entertaining to me to hear you gush over old games and how, while are definitely flawed, are still made with fun in mind. NFTs are thankfully are slowly dying, but ironically that does mean it'll take NFT hate/review videos with it. So yeah, hopefully your algorithm presence survives the inevitable shift in types of videos.

"Nice try Vage Strike... But you seem to have missed a crucial detail... *I'm in your walls*"
Scammers: _vibing in the discord_
*Vordt Of The Boreal Valley plays*
Scammers: oh no.
*Jauwn has joined the server. Prepare thine buttox.**
You & Quin gave the Vage Strike "devs" the equivalent of the "Nuh uh uhhh. You didn't say the magic word" screen from Jurassic Park. Priceless. Keep up the great work Jauwn.
Really glad that an actual game reccomendation could come out of you playing all this slop. Not to mention I have so much respect for the lead dev of red eclipse now for the funny solution to the Vage idiots
I really love the attention to detail and effort you put into these investigations. I've never really heard of a RUclipsr going as far as decompiling the source code for something like this.
Oh man I played red eclipse with a friend NONSTOP like 12 or so years ago. Thanks for reminding me of it, I had no idea it was getting updated etc all this time, but the fucking MUSIC YOU HAD THERE BROUGHT BACK SO MUCH NOSTALGIA
That red eclipse part with the dev changing the code is AMAZING, great job on this one!
The way the Red Eclipse dev managed the whole situation "does chef's kiss motion" it was fantastic!
amazing how i find one hell of a hidden gem in steam from this vid, thanks Jauwn. i'll be downloading red eclipse asap.
My first video of yours and I gotta say, the System Shock elevator Music is just fitting as an outro XD
"Look at those jiggle physics. They sure have their priorities straight."
Correct.
They had their tiny c0cks straight.
Is it wrong of me to want to work on one of these just so I can sneak in jiggle physics to the male character's groinal area?
@@bewilderbeestie Jiggle physics is never wrong. Unless somehow it is, but I wouldn’t admit it.
Sweet Booby, Inc. A consultancy company for maximizing jiggle physics in games.
Man, that's crazy. I played Red Eclipse YEARS ago on an old laptop as it was one of the few games that ran on that piece of junk. It took about 10 seconds of "gameplay" to recognize it. Great game, crazy that they just stole the source code and ran with it.
I was not ready for the Neutral Chao Garden theme.
Well played.
Dude! As much enjoyable and well made as this video is with montage and all the research -> Im literally so mad at the games and state of the market you show off, I wanted to turn it off just out of frustration at those crypto "devs". That being said, I have to push through my emotions and finish it out of pure respect for your great work. Great job m8!
To cryptobros, you're like what Karl Jobst is to videogame cheaters.
“Hello you absolute dipshits”
Except without the very weird uncomfortable background
Crypto games are the consequence of giving internet access to the 3rd world.
@@Materialist39 xDDDD
for some reason this made me absolutely wheeze imagining that in Karl Jobst’s voice.
How long until Billy Mitchell makes an NFT game and then tries to sue Jauwn for a negative review?
new marketing strat: steal your own game and shut it down
Did not expect Yoshimi battles the pink robots to play at 18 minutes. Havent heard that song in years. great video Jauwn
Awesome video, especially the Red Eclipse saga was hilarious and vindicating.
There are very few wins for open source developers, thank you for helping Red Eclipse! I downloaded the game to show my support!
ITS THE BEAUTIFUL OLD JAUWN INTRO
Going to a LAN party next month and I’m going to have to get the group to play Red Eclipse.
That sounds so fun
I remember having a blast even with bots, sadly my friends only play mainstream games.
It is like if all the cool parts of the latest CoDs was mixed with Quake Arena.
IIRC it's based on Sauerbraten which is based on Cube and all three are cromulent Quake-likes, though older. I used to play Sauerbraten a lot.
oh wow... that yoshimi cover actually caught me off guard. thanks for reminding me of one of my favorite songs when i was a child
Holy fuck! I used to play Red Eclipse like a decade ago and had completely forgotten about it. I found it on the app store thingy on my old Ubuntu 12.04 laptop when I was 10. Good memories
Man i love that intro theme.
If possible, never change. Pls
every once in a while because i like to make new ones, reusing the same old one is boring for me
@@jauwn oh you make originals? That's awesome! I'll enjoy the current one, waiting for a new to pop up all of the sudden.
@@IDBrunoMota yeah i make all the intros and everything about the video
@@jauwnyou should make a full version! Love the vibe of that track!
@@jauwn btw what are the lyrics? Could never figure it out by myself, but like to sing along anyway
10/10 Defacing a cryptogame and custom Jauwn-avatar. You guys rock! 😄
I love how genuinely pissed off and fed up Jauwn sounds near the end of the video
*Jawn appears*
"Shut it down.. Shut it down"
The coordination with the Red Eclipse devs is impeccable. You're doing good work Jauwn!
Yayyyy! My favourite intro
As someone who focuses a lot on bg music and becomes interested in a lot of them. Thank you so much for putting them on the screen
21:17 hash and slack is really a perfect description of that game
So you better smoke that hashish and slack on the couch.
If anyone buys into NFTs, Web 3.0 games, and Crypto at this point, they deserve to lose their money and time. There are so many examples of things going wrong in so many different ways that there's no excuse. I'm glad that folks like you exist, Jauwn. You show people the truth while still trying to be fair to them and that's awesome. It's Creators like you and Coffeezilla that keeps people willing to think critically from getting screwed over.
It's so obvious all these crypto-nerds care about is money. 0 passion for games as art or hell, even playing games. At least I get something when I play a gacha game or whatever. Crypto is just empty blank nothingness
100% true! When someone that does not know any better, like an elderly person and such is scammed i feel sympathy. When an NFT bro loses everything, i usually just laugh at them and feel pity towards those around that person that they damaged.
I've never been keen to blame the people who see a beacon of hope in the words of a grifter - desperation being the motivator. But laziness? Greed? Eeehhhhhhhh...
Yeeeaaah... "stupid people deserve to get scammed" will never be a good take. "Anyone willing to invest in crypto/NFTs is extremely greedy and lazy" is an egregious oversimplification and also falls apart.
@@dusaprukiyathan1613 They don't deserve to be scammed, but they really REALLY are asking for it.
The Vague Strike/Red Eclipse surprise was incredible. Great shit.
The Red Eclipse one was GOLD
Every new development in the Red Eclipse/Vage Strike segment somehow got more ridiculous and hilarious than the last. Big round of applause to you and Quin for owning these cypto doofuses in the funniest way possible! I'm sure they will learn absolutely nothing from this.
the fact that the red eclipse dev could force an update in vag strike is beyond hilarious
The entire Jauwn & Red Eclipse gambit was absolute joy to watch!
Thanks for showing off Red Eclipse, I had no idea about this game so Ill check it out!
