Bro uncovering a Necron tomb world
2:02 why does Matt always say "meatier" instead of "meteor"?
And yet…the game’s out. in full 🤷♂️
Matt play global rescue and zombies aren't real on steam and I am not the Dev
Tell me you haven't seen 2001: A Space Odyssey by not telling me you haven't seen 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Good job, Matt. You win!
I must say I'm a little disappointed that you weren't eaten by some gross alien monster or a beaver.
0:17 "don't ask why it's not astronomically accurate" It's called artistic licence. You're an engineer, you wouldn't get it.
thank you for more of this!
❤❤❤🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
When Matt saw the 2001: Space Odyssey monument and immediately turning into Bob Mortimer meeting the lady on Taskmaster, “Do I strike you?”
So this skyscraper sinks to the bottom of a lake
Lake and skyscraper gets filled with mud lake dries up maybe gets pushed up a little by tectonic activity then you find just the top of the building beneath the sand ..
what is it..?
3:03 2001 a Matt Odyssey…
“Back up this staircase… or ladder, if you want to be technical” – He says after giving us the technical definition of a super structure.
2:57 I can’t believe editor did not play “thus spoke Zarathustra” from 2001 a space odyssey when RCE found the black monolith.
30:43 Mmmmmmmm… Shai-Hulud.
16:20 "dig" size…
I would say that explosive barrels are relatively rare due to them not being the best object to store explosives in, perhaps. Explosive cylinders should be much more common in real life, I would think (eg. propane cylinders)
I am a Matt and I'm digging a hole, diggy diggy Matt, diggy diggy Matt. Now there's a couple nice big pre dug holes in Snowrunner, but unfortunately you cant dig them, so this game wins in this regard, but the lack of diesel fumes is disappointing, life isn't the same without the carcinogenic smell of diesel
Is it still a superstructure if it is intended for above ground, but then gets buried? Like, say, a big alien space ship?
I'm so glad you came back to this game!
The sleeve looks a bit short.
Wouldn't it be better to make it a bit longer to protect the top side of the card? To prevent whitening.
5:08 or it was built above the ground and its just been so long its now underground
12:14 How many lights are there Picard?
Been watching Matt architect his way through life too much, could have swore he said "Welcome back to alien architect" at the start… had to replay like 4 times to hear it as archiology
Day 375 of asking Matt to play Inkvasion!
ZORDON reference in 2026
11:08 find a body, or make a body?
Always hit the like button when the most efficient structure shows up 😂
I took a shot everytime the word "crevaces" was uttered. I now need a liver transplant.
I could watch you dig like that for 8 hours straight!
😻
I like that the game has ways out so you don't accidentally get stuck in a hole.
That looks amazing!!!!
Day 2 of asking Mat for a mousepad
i always thought "superstructure" just meant "really big structure"
7:23 in Germany we say: "so leute, Forza ist fertig runter geladen, wollen wir ne runde starten?" ; Drachenlord 2021
Piano man harmonica was hilariously poignant…anyway!
Note on Superstructure: while RCE is correct in engineering terms (super- vs supra- above and below the ground) the term superstructure also has a broader colloquial term commonly used outside of engineering, meaning "large scale" e.g. "super- v micro- structure" this isn't the same sense as "Superman".
Feels like too many meme cutaways in this one. Distracting.
🎵Has Matt washed his artifact this weeeeeeeek🎵
I wonder if you're supposed to cool down the meteor with the pool of water?
One of the things that I love about this game's map is that there is actually scaffolding and stairs that go all the way down as a continuous path, so you'll never trap yourself entirely (especially since, unlike A Game About Digging A Hole, you don't have limited energy to dig with). For myself, I've actually been doing a "dig out everything from top to bottom" kind of run XD Really looking forward to the full release of this game!
dig a path from the water to the meteor
allergic to inventory size upgrades, despite continuous comments about the backpack being full 😂😂
Big dig energy.
Please play the full game as its actually out now.
Never probe a droid that poops TNT….They probably mean super structure as part of a ship above the deck, also glad its just not me that thinks hot metal looks tasty…what would digging a trench to let the water hit the hot asteroid
do?
Explosive barrels aren't common?
Do you not have Propane tanks?
05:06 matt it was not built underground….it was built on the surface but got submerged after years of sedimentation…classic matt
