@@mattevans4377 Well, there isn't exactly a lot of thought diversity in most newsrooms. Fortunately, most reporters are professional enough to at least try to be fair. That's on the local level, anyway. Behind the scenes it's a different story.
Not in a newsroom, but I have done live TV and radio editing in a similar vein. This game is amusing me and giving me horrific flashbacks simultaneously. Fun times, but holy ferkbahls the stress....
I picture baby Jon saying concerning things to his parents like "I wanna be a PA for a totalitarian propaganda machine when I grow up" and they'd just laugh and laugh and warn others.
11:33 Jon changing the feed so he can hear the argument, forgetting that the feed is going out live on the TV, is the funniest goddamn thing I've ever seen.
Having working in broadcasting: Yeah, this is accurate. Except that the tech doesn't work this well. What fun is a live show anyways if none of the mics fail halfway through and you have to run on set, while the cutter frantically tries to cut around you as you fix it.
I have a feeling that equipment failure will be a part of future levels. After all, there is a fan and a heat warning light there aching to be used. Remember, this was the easy level.
Luckly for you, in one of the broadcasts, depending on your choices, you might have to constantly change cameras to make sure protesting nudists dont get on camera
Its gonna be exciting to see the full release to this a year or two from now. There was... a lot to this; that entire left side was very interesting and would love to see what goes wrong with that.
Watching this caused my sides to hurt with laughter. Brilliant concept for a game and guaranteed fun even if the player makes a pig's ear of things (perhaps even more fun). Thank you Jon for sharing a peak at this game and of course the marvelous Potato Song with us.
John, the “Jacket Potato” is actually a song, being inspired by Monty Python and some other old classics, and you can actually buy the song on iTunes. Just search “Jacket Potato Song” on the RUclips search bar and it should show up.
I think this captures the essence of Outside Broadcast life. Especially if it does have overheating mechanics. Just add 28 more sources and it'll be perfect
7:37 Wait a Second, I recognize that Cover. *Checks Steam Page* Well draw me poorly and call me David Cameron it's from NotGames, the Guys who previously made 2 rather simple parody games. Turning GTA into Snake and CoD into a Side-Scrolling Shooter. Nice to see that they now made an original game.
screenfunfan Well butter my crumpits - someone who’s actually heard of us. Thanks for sticking around. Yeah - we’ve gone from 0-100 on the ambition scale. We’ve gone through 237 sets of pants, 18 metric tons of tea and 3 or 4 nervous breakdowns.
you should check out the game "her story" its an fmv game were you look through police interviews with a woman and you unlock more clips by hearing words or phrases relevant to said clip being unlocked to find more pieces to the mystery
I just checked out The Day Today - it is great. In the US, we had an under-appreciated talk show called Fernwood Tonite (named after the claimed broadcast location of Fernwood Ohio), and in its 2nd season it was renamed America Tonight. It had some of the best dry comedy of the era. And I can't mention dry comedy without mentioning the Red Green Show - all episodes of which are on RUclips! And the host now does comedy tours.
This game looks awesome! I would never dare to play it myself. I'd get too stressed with multitasking. But it would be so much fun watching you playing it Jon. When the game is out you MUST do the let's play or stream!
Is Advance really a nightmare dystopia? I mean as far as dystopias go, one that only discriminates against the disgustingly wealthy really isn't that bad
Within two days, the game's new liberal government is going to hit every doomsaying talking point conservatives have about the dangers of being slightly to the left of The Pope. It's dystopian from the other side and I'd wager it'll be ridiculous to watch.
It still is a dystopia, just one in transition, like the quote goes: "First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out- Because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out- Because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out- Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me-and there was no one left to speak for me."
@@VanVelding an interesting take for sure. I was speaking purely for what we've actually seen in the demo, no speculation as to what advance will do afterwards

Great now I want a Jacket Potato, but it's almost midnight, so I'll have to wait for day to go into town to see my local Jacket Potato stand for freshly cooked Jacket Potatoes.
Wow, as someone who played it fairly late into the Episode 1 Early Access release its interesting to see how it was in Alpha stage. Shows its already come a long way since then and we're still a way off until episode 3 comes out
Came back here for the jacket potato song. In Ep 2 there's the Mr Bear song. That's just as catchy and can end up insanely dark, but with a hella catchy chorus...aieek.
I honestly judged this book by the cover at the start. the title screen made it seem kinda dumb. The actual game just keeps getting better and better and better and better...

I work in a newsroom. It isn't nearly so organized and efficient as this.
How would you describe said news room? Any particular biases, for example?
@@mattevans4377 Well, there isn't exactly a lot of thought diversity in most newsrooms. Fortunately, most reporters are professional enough to at least try to be fair. That's on the local level, anyway. Behind the scenes it's a different story.
LOL... likewise, i did sound in a tv studio many years ago still laugh about those days.
The censorship was needed on the in-studio headsets,
Not in a newsroom, but I have done live TV and radio editing in a similar vein. This game is amusing me and giving me horrific flashbacks simultaneously.
Fun times, but holy ferkbahls the stress....
This makes me glad I've only ever worked in print newsrooms.
I picture baby Jon saying concerning things to his parents like "I wanna be a PA for a totalitarian propaganda machine when I grow up" and they'd just laugh and laugh and warn others.
I am deeply concerned that could be true
69 likes nice
Maybe Jon's real name is Winston Smith...
D3fact01 except smith hated the party
A nightmare dystopian newsroom? So... a contemporary news room.
yeah but more potatoes
Well leftist only work in a Utopia. So anything not idoitic is a dystopia to them.
@@decap112 shut up boomer
11:33 Jon changing the feed so he can hear the argument, forgetting that the feed is going out live on the TV, is the funniest goddamn thing I've ever seen.

You know, maybe you should turn up the broadcast volume
You won't be able to censor it if you don't turn up the broadcast volume!
Nice to finally have an accurate, modern news simulation.
I was thinking that meself. Sounds perfectly like news stations in the US.
Fuck it, we'll do it live
@@BradTheAmerican STOP THE HAMMERING, WHERE IS IT? WHERE IS IT!! FUCKING OUT OF CONTROL, SHIT.
Ironically, it takes place in the 80s.
22:57 Morse code for "help, i'm trapped in a dystopian news room"
PFFTHAHAHA! X,D
tbh despite the interference and the whole dystopian thing this is a pretty accurate depiction of what its like behind the scenes of live tv
But the true question... have you had your eye on this one for a while?
Having working in broadcasting: Yeah, this is accurate. Except that the tech doesn't work this well. What fun is a live show anyways if none of the mics fail halfway through and you have to run on set, while the cutter frantically tries to cut around you as you fix it.

@@roguishpaladin it was a joke tied into a personal annectode.
Does that include the live censor button?
Luckly for you, in one of the broadcasts, depending on your choices, you might have to constantly change cameras to make sure protesting nudists dont get on camera
This is brilliant. Live-editing is super stressful. So much can go wrong XD Kudos to those who can manage it!
I guess experience goes a very long way.
Its very nice of other signals to make increasingly difficult minigames for the bored live editors
Jeopardy is very considerate that way.
PART TWO WHEN IT COMES OUT PLEASE IM NOT KIDDING I REALLY REALLY REALLY WANT TO SEE MORE OF THIS!!!!!!!!
pleeeeeeeeease
Austin Ford I smell a livestream!
my mind: "i'm not kidding I REALLY REALLY REALLY WANNA ZIGGA ZIG AH!
If Jon ever decided to show his face in a video, it would HAVE to be him reenacting the Jacket Potato commercial.
For your next birthday special PLEASE sing the jacket potato song!
That Jacket Potatoes song is firmly jammed in my brain now!
@@drakkenmensch JaCkEt PoTaEtO
When I say jacket. You say potato! JACKET!
POTATO!
JACKET!

I like how Jon is so focused he doesnt commentate the tutorial after he gets into it
This game NEEDS too come out. It's so bizzarely engaging.
We've actually traced Jon's family history and found he's a direct descendant of George Orwell ...
Srsly?
Ben Dover yes, we did.
@@charlesuzozie5747 woooosh
Orwell wasnt actually an authoritarian. maybe you meant Mosley?
1984 was supposed to be a cautionary tale, not an instruction manual, you maniacs!
The only time when the adverts are a moment of bliss...
Oh God, this game has potential for some really funny moments.
When I say Jacket, you say Potato! JACKET!

Why hello there Jon, the scary dystopian manager of news.
Did you go to the George Lucas Film School? It's all shot/reverse shot
13:49: Hey! A "Hello Neighbor" reference! Aww, man. Wish Jack could have seen that!
I feel like Jon likes running dystopian media a little too much
The jacket potato moment absolutely sold it for me. Please revisit this when the full version releases.
Anybody else reflexively join in during the "Jacket!" - "Potato!" bit and get ridiculously happy when Jon did so as well?
he was a jacket potato, i was a girl, can i make any more jacket potatoes?
So now I have Jacket potato stuck in my head.
It's such a good song though. 😂
JACKET!
@@roguishpaladin POTATO!
Jon's angling to be the new director of the BBC, I see...
John, the “Jacket Potato” is actually a song, being inspired by Monty Python and some other old classics, and you can actually buy the song on iTunes. Just search “Jacket Potato Song” on the RUclips search bar and it should show up.
Also available on RUclips and Spotify 😉
Missed a great reaction shot at 9:15 when she was like "wtf"
I think this captures the essence of Outside Broadcast life. Especially if it does have overheating mechanics. Just add 28 more sources and it'll be perfect
lol I think Jon was attempting morse code with his censorship
2:35 "Bigfoot: Richard Osman" ok so this game has humorous easter eggs in it then
The fmv's are freaking hilarious
This might be the worst or the best game for youtubers/streamers, I'm not sure.
In any case... this is brilliant.
Your therapist would take up bricklaying.....
Wonderful Jon, thanks for showcasing this! Please revisit when it gets a full release/more levels.
Somehow I think Jon deliberately broadcast the actor's rant deliberately...
Well i as an audience would have loved to see that.
This is what I love about this channel, discovering these indie gems.
This is one of those games nobody knew we needed.
That is why we have seperate broadcast engineers and censors!
Who can censor it because they have turned up the broadcast volume!
This looks great, thanks for taking the time to play this one! :)
Dude..
John and I said in perfect unison: "This is the greatest thing I've ever seen..."
POTATO. POTATO!
Ahh, Dystopian. A wonderful genre.
I mean, sure it may be a dystopian future, but at least in this timeline Safeways never went under.
Such a quiet video 0-o It was so weird not to hear commentary when Jon was having to switch between screens. So much concentration!
"Greatest game, Skies of Arcadia..."
BROTHER.

Oh and yeah, The Day Today and Brass Eye are works of utter genius.
Also, Drop The Dead Donkey, wherein the writing team incorporated major/breaking real-world news stories into the weekly episodes.

anyone else seeing this being a VR game in the future, god that would be fun
I smell a series brewing
I hope you play more for us, Jon. This looks absolutely wild and I can't wait to see how things develop.
This game is all about attention and perception. God save us all...
You have to play it when it comes out, this is glorious
What a fantastic little game!
Honestly that jacket potato ad was priceless.
Jon's editing is good enough to earn an Oscar like Bohemian Rhapsody.

I would’ve guessed that he’d nail the censoring part after all these years of censoring Matt
I think it would have been brilliant if Claire at the end cut on Jon having a tantrum.
Please play more of this when it comes out! I'm actually super interested in the story going on in the background!
I’m not even playing it but I’m stressed just watching all this multitasking
Rewatching this from the beginning... Jon, you made a joke about a nuclear explosion outside the window...
Great now I want a Jacket Potato, but it's almost midnight, so I'll have to wait for day to go into town to see my local Jacket Potato stand for freshly cooked Jacket Potatoes.

Loved the game. I'll pay extra for the jacket potato DLC
Thanks Jon. This has got to be a live stream.
Ahhhh I love when Jon covers nightmare dystopia news room games.
I wish we could make it a mkee popular genre.
What's really funny is when you're so used to everyone swearing you don't notice it and have to retrain yourself.
This game looks awesome. I can’t wait to play it when it gets finished!
21:48 If that's not Richard Ayoade it's a damn good impersonation.
Fantastic!! lol I love this so much. We need more weird simulator games.
Anyone else still humming "Jacket Potato"?
Jon, you should seriously play Netflix's interactive film Black Mirror: Bandersnatch.
I have no doubt you'll love it.
