@@User-57846 🙌🏻
Great candid podcast! Best wishes for Mumbai Gullies and Mukti 🙌
17 to 21 hours gameplay quite amazing 😮😮
@@bestofhistory yes, as mentioned by Nikhil. Let’s hope it comes out great 🙌🏻
The entire series, not the first version 😄
@@nikmlnkr I know sir 😍
@@nikmlnkr what's the gap between each episodes?
Hope MG does great when it's out; this podcast will go down in history.
Hats off to both of you, waiting eagerly for the release of mumbai gullies and Mukti!🫶
@@Goansidexplores thanks a ton buddy
i was optimistic for this fellow when he said the game will launch in 2022, i had faith when he delay 3 times now its 2025 India is the capital of scammers i believe in that i feel for the people who made 'The palace on the hill', the detective one cant remember the name and raji they need more recognition then anyone else here.
I understand your frustration, trust me I've been wanting to release this game too. There were tons of challenges we had to overcome but I'm not going to give up. Requesting your patience. We do have some very good stuff built for our game and I'm sure you won't be disappointed once the game is launched.
Nikhil sir please make sure to include as many Random encounters, side missions/quests in the Mumbai Gullies world as Possible
because in my experience all the story games I've played like GTA, Skyrim, RDR2, Cyberpunk 2077 which have many of these side missions & random encounters & they bring much more to the game and make us more involved in that imaginary world, & make the game feel rich in content.
so please please take your time. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
you can only make video not game
Reality
Wow!!! My two idols in one frame. 🙂🙌
I respect the hustle, but this guy says I worked for 1 year at a company and learned all the things there is. I find it unreal and dishonest.
Game development is huge and very dynamic.. you just scratch the surface in a year.
Secondly, what are some noteworthy games gameeon made? I dont see any online actually. He said they made like 200 mobile games.
Good initiative btw with the podcast.
Hey there mate, want to step in and clarify few things related to your comment. Learning everything about game development is not possible as its a vast discipline and there's always something new you learn everyday. The reason I've said that is because I learnt a structured approach to game dev in that 1 year. Also, about the 200 games, these are a mix of client projects and our internal games. We've worked with a lot of hyper casual game publishers and we had our portfolio of games on Google Play. We recently shifted our major focus to Mumbai Gullies due to which the games that we had uploaded to Google Play got removed as we didn't update them as per recent policy guidelines. Nothing unreal or dishonest has been said in the podcast from my end.
Exactly, it seems like one giant scam.
why every indian gamer only want AAA game like GTA why not make a game like hades why not first make a AA or simple game why every one want a game like GTA
Because that's popular here
@@DarkCrown_Officialwith that mindset the game will be utter failure. In making AAA games you game dev should consider the global market.
@@anshukandulna1844 yeah and for making a aaa game a comapny needs about 70 millions dolalrs and if the game is not made in over 70 million doallrs it is not considers a triple aaa game and people were saying so easily aaa but don't knwo the cost to make one for a single developer sole develeoper 70 millions dollars just think then you all tell me
It's anticipation like they never truly played GTA India and don't worry me and my team is going to start working on a game in like a few months it's purely based on a story i think you might like it
No we want games like prince of persia with good gameplay and controls and graphics theek thaak
What a podcast!! Great, Hopefully MG aah jaaye
@@beastislive7174 thanks for watching
TL;DR: No, India lacks vision, culture, principles and values to make something like a AAA game
👍
Boss aap log boht acha kaam kar rahe ho Mumbai Gullies ko me bhi kafi time se follow kar raha hun potential to boht hai game me.
I am from Pakistan mein ne boht logon se is baray me baat ki hai lekin koi bhi yahan serious nahi hai.
Studio owners yahan elite class se hain jo employees ko literally peanuts dete hain salary ke naam pe.
I have worked with a big name animation studio in Pakistan as a 3d character artist and I also do illustrations.
I just wish koi aisa tareeka hota ke Indian developers ke sath milke kaam kar paata because you guys are dedicated to this industry and leaps and bounds ahead of where Pakistani game industry is right now which is non existent.
@@uzairbinshabbir good to hear this from you man. Soon there will be a time when the borders won’t matter to create quality games for global world. The community angle though is very important and much needed, hope you are able to build a strong one there too.
@@imvaibhavchavan Bilkul bhai I as a Pakistani digital artist is super proud of Indian devs aap log bas rukna mat in do char haters ki waja se.
Godspeed and May Allah bless you with success inshaAllah You represents the entire south asian community Pak, India and Bangladesh combined.
@ thank you brother, you made my day
great podcast sir
@@pulkitpr thanks a ton for watching the podcast 🙌🏻
Nikhil bhai simple si baat h logo ko game me cars aur characters ka motion mechanism gta 5 jesa chahiye aur city mumbai chahiye you have to understand that. Baki kuch nahi😊
I am Working New Game Den AAA Game Only Single Hand. ❤ And Nice Podcast.❤
@@MSRathoreshort thanks for watching the podcast
Great podcast❤
Should have gone for single player story mode with detailed locations and immersive gameplay (like gow,tomb raider or last of us ) instead of an open world in first try, it was a dumb move and also i would like to point out that stop saying that this game going to be a AAA , we all know it’s just marketing, AA games in todays era is just as popular as AAA titles , 2nd factor in open world games you have to keep in mind that the npc interaction should have some variation or some sort of daily routines which they follow otherwise it’s just feels dead in itself, and 3rd (it is specifically in india) guns and ammo should be limited ( just like sleeping dogs ) to show authenticity cuz it’s not America, you can’t buy guns legally but instead players should use bat, sticks , household cooking items as weapons….these are some suggestions i want to give if anyone is interested in reading
Amazing👍❤
Yah game nahi ek scam hai. Kabhi release nahi hogi yah game. Bekar mei nakli hope de raha hai hume.
abe game to bananane de bhai game announce hi 2020 mein hui corona ke karn ho nahin paay deveelopmeny 2022 mein start hui abhi 2 saal hi hue hain bhai agar unpolished ye game nikaldeneg to tum jasie log hi bologe are bhaiya ye kya bekar game hai thod atime leke aur banaleete ab mera paisa refund karo .. to sabar nahin kar sakte kya gta 6 ke liye 15 saal wait karlia par iske liye kuch 1 se 2 ssaal aur wiat nahin kar sakte apne indian product ka maltab had hai blackmyth wukong dekho usko sirf 20 logon ko team bana rahi thi and uska development 2018 mein start hua tah 2024 mein khatam hua 6 saal lag gaye and us game ko bhi ek new company bana rahi thi par unko achi khasi fudingbhi hai 70 million dollars mein game bana tha tab jake itna time laga and mumbai gullies ke pas bas 2 se 3 million dolalr ki at max fund hai game ko bannae ka and employess bhi bahut kam hain to time to lagega na bhai to thoda samjho apne indian game ke liye bhi wiat karna sikho sirf foriegners ki chatne se kuch nahin hoga bhai forigner ke liye hajaron saal wait karloge apne indian ke liye kcuh saal bhi nahin isliye humari indian gaming industry grow nahin kar pa rahi kyunki apne indisn hi usko support nahin karte kya khak grow karegi indian gaming industry
@factiboi5217 you comment exactly explains the Indian gaming industry and the community in a nutshell. Mujhe aur kuch nahi kahna. Mai foreigners ki nahi chaat ta but India mei koi dhang ki game bani bhi hai ajj tak. Mumbai Gullies bhi toh bhai GTA clone he hai nuh?
@@dillsedesi007 bhai banegi kasie india mein game ye to batao mereko jab log suppoort nahin karenegee pasie hi nahin honeg to game apne ap banjayega kya and cloen anhin keh skate mumbai gulleis ko sleeping dogs dekhle then tera saints row dekhle then tera mafia game dkehle ye sab gta se inspired hain
@@dillsedesi007 inspiration alag chijhoti hai and copy alag chij wo wo copy anhin kar rahe mumbai nein underworld ko game mein dikhaya hai and inspiration bas gta se lia hai copy anhin bolksate agar isko copy bol rahe then mafia baki sabko bhi copy boldo ap
@@dillsedesi007 and the third thing bahut sare indian devbelopers foreign ja rahe kyunki bahut sari indian game release ho chuki hain par people ne un ache games ko support nahin kia and uski wajah se bhai kamai nahin hui to wo comapny nahin bana pai aage games and developers froeign company liek rockstar baki sba mein chlae gaye
steam link for your game?
the audio seems to have a lot of echo.........
nah its fine
Respect you guys but deciding to launch mg in multiple version is shit
Wait for it mate, we have some very strong reasons for this
Indian's haven't made AAA titles that's not going to change until someone has deep pockets come in. Also talent is an issue, there is a lot of brain drain happening in India.
@@MetalGearMk3 true, but the situation is changing. We are about to see some kickass games in the next 2 years
teh real reason in india there isn't any aaa title cause cause cause let me tell you cause people get offended easily very very easliy in india like you see there is an hanuman game a game developer told me that somebody case on the game comapnny for making a game on hanuman ji and tah egame shows hanuman ji in a good way still still people case on game comapny and thi sis the first reason people are over sensitive now came for the second reason which is in india people don't support small games 2d gamex pixalated games which small company makes they jsut don't play them or if play they only demotivate the developers by not praising and that is why develeoper don't make any aaa games or anything cause people don't support they only support foriegn products even it is pixalated game or 2d and if it is a foreign game then people were like wwowowowowoowowow but if it is an indian people like no hell nah i can't play this game this is not for me this is the worst game ....ycukkkkkkkk......in america gaming start first they made random games which is pixalated and all that and then people showed lov eon then they upgraded and made aa game then after people show more love then they upgraded to aaa game but in india gaming industry developer always fail at the first stage only cause people show hate at the first stage only ....and the third thing is in india developer can't amek much money cause people don't show any supoort just keep demanding and demanding and demanding adn demanding and don't buy the game like you seee people don't even know a game which is upcoming named occult chambers which is based on indian culture but people are not talkingabout that cause it is an indian game that is why if it is foreign then will be like wowowow foregn game wowowwoowow
@@imvaibhavchavan I have been hearing about this "situation change" for last 2-3 years.
Bhai aap log hindi language nahi use kar sakte 😡
But mumbai gullis is a garbage game
bhai kamathipura ka pura experience dena kasam se hit ho jayega, RDR, Witcher Kuch nahi aagey 😆😆😆
