Hey Patrons,

This month's Patron Show comes from Sydney, Australia where I am to do a fireside chat with SkillUP at SxSW and finally engage with the Australian game dev community. It's my first time here and while I hope to film some stuff while out here I'm also meeting a bunch of folks - both indies and at studios - to get a lay of the land for how better /noclip can tell the story of Aussi game development.

I'm here for about 12 days so I actually brought most of my editing set-up with me and will be working away on some edits during my downtime, so filming and rendering this Patron Show was first on my to-do list.

This month's show has one big project update a lot of you have been asking for, along with details of a patron-exclusive promo offer for those of you who want to support our work on noclip_2.

As ever, here are the chapters;

If you're in Australia yourself I'm gonna be doing Patron meetups in both Sydney and Melbourne, so check out this post for more details on that.

Enjoy the show, and if you have any questions please stick them in the comments below.

Do I need to have my breakfast at dinner time for this show to make sense?

Hey Danny! I normally hold off on posing a question unless it's specifically for a Q&A focused Patron Show, but with the recent awful news that Heart Machine has had to undergo layoffs and development on Hyper Light Breaker is winding down (if not already completely stopped), will there be a final "wrap-up" to Hyper Light Development? I understand if not, though it leaves the series feels unfinished, as failure, even when it's not ever desirable, is still part of its story, and I dont recall many instances NoClip has tackled failures, particularly on projects that have already been started. Apologies for the bummer post, but I hope you're having a grand time in Austrailia! Thanks for reading if you do and have a great day!

Great question - we chatted about it on the discord a bit. So yes my desire is to finish that story. We held off on episode 4 when the layoffs happened because I wanted to make sure we covered it properly and talked to those affected but it got buried under a bunch of other work (Dwarf Fortress). Now that it's going to be cancelled with a final update coming sometime early next year I'm eager to tell the whole story - but it's a sensitive time right now so don't expect updates in the coming weeks or anything like that. TLDR: it's awful news, I want to tell the story of what happened and finish the series.

whatever you do, don't skip breakfast

Thanks Danny! Hope you enjoy Australia. IMO, the best part about it is the nature, so if you get time between interviews I'd recommend things like the Taronga zoo, the Three Sisters/Blue Mountains national park, or Jervis Bay (on your drive from Sydney to Melbourne)
