Full Transcription
I think we are live.
Welcome.
How are you doing, Blains?
Good, man. How are you?
Good.
Just, you know, back to school season now.
So everything's just been like...
Oh, dude, that means your friends' friends are going rampant to the house, if you know what I mean.
My friends' friends?
Yeah, your kids' friends' friends.
You know, they bring them to school.
They bring them home. Everybody in the house enjoys enjoys it y'all get lots of sleep drink lots of water you know don't feel the greatest for a couple days you know your friends friends
that happens now your kids are like in like middle school age right no no no no my kids
are still technically uh well one's a tour i guess
in middle school now not yeah i guess one's an elementary two are in middle is that no i see
i got confirmation for the boss
nice cool well uh what about yours are they middle are they they you got college i got i got four kids in their
the oldest is five whoa all right hey yeah you're busy yeah i know so like yeah the other
i have twins and they're four they just turned four and then i have a uh a toddler who's one and a half. Wow. You probably are
not sleeping much.
No, actually, sleeping's okay.
We sleep train them.
Every day, they're up by 7.30.
Good job.
The only problem is waking up, though.
You train them too good.
Yeah.
Well, I guess we should talk about this game.
There's these bears walking around.
Yeah, so this time, I guess what's cool is now,
we played this last week, but there was no sound,
and now we can actually hear all the gaming sounds
that are coming to this.
Yeah, and I didn't, you know, greedily get all my dailies.
See this? I claim. yeah and i i didn't you know greedily get all my dailies see this thing goes i claim
what is that that's a pinata so it's gonna have i'm i'm poked it
all right so i got my daily rewards. Check our daily quests.
Use 20 boosters, break 10 pinatas, create 50 special tiles.
That seems manageable.
We can do that.
All right.
Okay.
So you're playing this on your iPad or Android?
I'm actually playing this on my phone.
Oh, nice.
Yeah, this is on my iPhone.
And I'm charged it. So you can't make fun of me for not charging my phone oh nice yeah this is on my iphone so and i'm charged it so you can't make fun of me for
not charging my phone uh so we'll try we'll try the basic one sugar lab see if we can't do something
now these are actually people i'm playing against it's a three-way match not just a heads-up match
there's three people in this that's awesome you can't you
can't is there like a friends list yet where you can invite people into your game no so they thought
about it for a long time long and hard and their concept behind not implementing it was because it
could be gained if you and i say join the match and then like we got a really good multiplier
oh i see we could potentially... You can earn those tokens more then.
Exactly.
And they don't want to create a situation
where it can be gamed like that.
They want this to be...
Yeah, exactly.
You know what I mean?
You guys are familiar with this.
You can earn tokens in this game
and they're redeemable for stuff.
But there's also a separate token on Etherlink by Tezos.
And you can actually, and there's some,
there's some monetary value to it or it's like an open token.
Oh yeah, there's monetary value.
If you are earning on Apple Farm,
it tells you what the value is in XTZ or Apple.
Yeah, and that's the other thing.
You can take those tokens and you can stake them
yeah and like earn more yield if you guys are into like defy and decentralized finance
and lots of stuff so it's cool there's lots of utility to this game lots of assets
i like how basically they're going to be using the coin as entry into play as opposed to some
speculative thing you have to hold or you can't do certain things.
Maybe I should use
my boosters. I have no idea what I'm doing.
Oh, look at that guy.
That's the beauty of the tokens.
You can go so many different angles
with it. Another thing you can do is
people who actually own the token.
I mean, Sugar Match can just make NFTs
and drop you cool pixel art.
They can drop you some cool codes for getting new skins exclusive skins so like yes sky's the limit yeah like they said
today man he's not looking to create the next new best thing he wants to iterate on things that work
and he just wants to make sure they're fun create Create a better maus trap. It's a valid strategy.
Yeah.
And mobile gaming, man.
I mean, there's more people playing mobile games
than there are any other type of games in the world
at any given moment.
I mean, it's billions of users.
I mean, given the direction now of crypto and blockchain,
it's completely changed down the perception.
Now it seems like, hey, this is a thing here to stay.
There's no war on this anymore. And there's some real utility, some real down to perception. Now it seems like, hey, this is a thing here to stay. There's no war on this anymore.
And there's some real utility,
some real value to it.
So this is the future.
Imagine if Candy Crush just released his token.
That thing would be held by every stay-at-home mom
in North America.
You would definitely see a lot of grandmas with some candy coin yeah
and like and it's not just like oh like you know like the Ponty thing like where you're like hey
you're gonna get rich off of this app there's other cool things you can do with the token
like I was saying before you can get exclusive NFTs exclusive skins exclusive like like merch
like that stuff there's real there's really stickiness to it it
makes one keep the token makes me play the game more and so i think more games should will implement
implement tokens just remember to make your game fun please because if it's not fun i don't want
to do this you know what i mean like this is yeah i've seen some bad examples where like they just
focus on the token, but the
game is completely shit.
That's not what you want to do either.
Took second place.
Yeah. It's Elena
kicked my butt. You see that?
Good job.
Good job. I don't know what I'm doing, but that's okay.
I haven't played it since we played it last's okay i haven't played it since we played
last week i've been busy you know okay i'm guessing like this game is like it's repetition
the more you play the better you get yes definitely and the more you understand these
boosters like i have no idea okay double your points for strategy that's like the next level maybe we should read some of these boosters we'll check
them out okay so the angry bear doubles your points super because mediocrity is for losers
he's not wrong bolty licious so okay Random tiles. What does this one do?
I wonder who comes up with these names.
It's awesome.
They have one art director
who's behind the whole theme
in this game, all the art style
and everything.
She is the brains behind it all.
So this is...
You should get her out of space.
That would be awesome. well at least yoshi should
for arts fridays i mean she's an artist that would be amazing it'd be cool giving a high level artist
like designs games yeah sucks in all tiles in one color to the middle that one's fun i've used that
one a few times okay what's this okay i wonder what salt bay does
that one is the the best one in terms of style we'll look at him last we'll look at him last
special style detonated okay
jackpot match it five times to crack it oh
times to crack it oh oh interesting i wonder if you can steal that tile as another player
because there's one that steals okay what do you do just sprinkle points around tiles nice
okay so that's the score boosters let's look at the defensive boosters
Four boosters.
Let's look at the defensive boosters.
For ten glorious seconds,
they're all talk, no sabotage.
Okay, that's fantastic.
Okay.
Random tiles go fizzy and pop.
What does that do?
I think it just pops random tiles
so that they drop because it gets gating.
Reflects the attack back.
Oh, look at that.
So that's how you block what he was talking about.
Activate a fluffy wall of marshmallows to block all attacks.
Okay, so that...
Okay, okay, okay.
Immune to sabotage.
Interesting. Okay. okay immune to sabotage interesting okay candy bubbles all right so here's the offensive boosters
oh so that's the one he's talking about so if you can buy it's covered yeah okay you combine the ice cream with
fog fog of s'more yeah let's do that okay let's see here sticky finger steals the next special
tile see that's what i'm saying what if you could steal that one
well there you go that's interesting can't even hold off nice five seconds to clean it or get exploded interesting okay and then cookie crumble
oh wow okay okay all right so i think i kind of understand what these boosters do
that's cool okay let's look at three right i'm well it's random on this level
if i go to arena i can select what i want
but in this one it's random so it sort of kind of evens the
playing field it's the best you can do with what you got let's see if we can remember what they do
yeah get a shout out from web3.tez love this game nice okay we got the salt day i got the
Nice.
Okay, we got the salt day.
I got the really angry looking.
Interesting.
Okay.
Well, let's make some magic.
Let's see what happens.
Oh, no.
This is like Candy Crush for Gen Z.
Oh, this is like on crack.
It's like, oh, you want 3X Candy Crush?
Candy Crush with leverage.
It's like pure dopamine and adrenaline.
That's all it is.
All right.
No more stuff for you.
I think that's what I just...
I totally lost what I'm doing.
You can lose complete focus on what you're trying to accomplish.
That's crazy.
You lose focus for like even a minute, like 20 seconds.
The other person takes advantage.
Yeah.
But the cool thing about this game
is even if you have a huge lead,
you can still lose it all
if you're not on the ball.
Mm-hmm.
Three versus three. These are three players that are actually
playing in real time.
That's cool. Oops. I pushed the wrong one.
Dang it.
That's okay.
Extra booster, extra booster.
All right, Salt Bay me up, baby.
No boosters for you.
There you go.
Sprinkling that joy down on the sky.
Okay.
That's good.
That's good. That's Okay. That's good.
That's good.
That's good.
That's good.
Okay.
Do it again.
You're so nice, Mr. Salt Bae.
I guess it's Sugar Bae.
Sugar Bae.
Perfect, actually. All right. Combo, combo, combo. Perfect, actually.
Combo, combo, combo.
Those are good.
That's good.
Cascading combos.
I'm terrible at this game.
Now, I knew a lady back when I worked at one of my first casinos.
She was so good at these type of games.
She would just naturally have this knack for knowing exactly what to push i don't know if she just saw the pattern i could imagine because
this game is exactly what you would see in a casino well it was on the the bar's counter is
what it was like it was one of those quarter machines the i can't remember what it's called
yeah but it's got like a match the picture i mean like i don't know if i'm dating myself how much would you win if you had won that game because i'm assuming it's called. It's got like a match the picture. I mean, I don't know if I'm dating myself.
How much would you win if you had won that game?
Because I'm assuming it's like you can back money, right?
No, man.
We're just drunk as far matching gems.
It's like an arcade machine, but at the bar.
I don't know what else to call it.
They're fun, though.
I haven't been in a casino in like 10 years, I think. I don't even know when to call it. They're fun, though. I haven't been in a casino in, like, 10 years, I think.
I don't even know when I've been in a casino.
I try to go as often as possible just because it's one of the last places that really kids can't go.
That's a good point.
And I don't mean that I, like, don't want to see my kids.
It's just, you know, like, sometimes you don't want to see my kids it's just you know like sometimes you
don't want to see other people's yeah other kids yeah and of course like they're at the age too
where my kids they're going to birthday parties they're they're going doing great oh oh what do
you normally play you know oh you actually won a nice. Oh, I won by like 200 points by not paying attention to my score at all.
Okay, so I won some G candy.
You see that?
You're locked in on that.
I got it.
I'm the king.
Yeah, so you earned like 100 G candy.
Yeah.
All right.
King is on.
Now the crown is appropriate.
That's right. and then if you
go to minecraft you'll know who's boss so yeah so yeah this uh that was kind of nice i but i think
it helped that i knew what the the different boosters did yeah it really helped like not just
like oh i wonder what that did okay i got that for free yeah yeah last thing was a
shotgun approach just press everything you do yeah hope i wasn't screwing myself turns out
i really was oh i got one of those things nice that's okay so it's pretty satisfying getting
the boosters oh it's satisfying collecting the g candy i think it's fair swinging thanks everyone that's joining i think we're up to
almost a thousand people watching on x oh nice welcome welcome we'll play one more let's do
yeah we'll jump into some minecraft in case you guys yeah that's the reason you guys jumped in
to watch the stream hopefully minecraft i went around and did some meaning we're trying to do
these streams weekly tesla's gaming nights if you guys want to learn more about building,
what we're trying to do is we're trying to play Minecraft,
which is an awesome gaming community server.
We have awesome people in there building things.
And we're also trying to feature a game that you can play on Tezos
and you can play on Etherlink.
And so this is that game for this week.
And if you guys can learn more about the games in Teslas,
I will link on the bottom there.
It says teslas.com.
All right.
So I just blasted a bunch of my boosters.
I'm not real sure what I'm trying to accomplish here, buddy.
I'm sorry.
Oh, I should have done the bomb.
Hey, this is interesting.
How come the score is four digits now
um i don't know what did that point it's like i got a half point oh wow yeah yeah yeah it looks
like we're getting semi points oh ice cream to me look at that you see that yeah goober i love it. Okay. Bring this. We'll popcorn.
I don't know what this does, but we'll do it.
So far, it's paying off.
Seems good.
Oh, you ice cream jerk.
Ice cream jerk.
Yeah, I don't know, man.
Okay, what does this guy do?
Oh, he does something.
Oh, round two.
Let's go.
Oh, I see.
I have to.
Oh, gross.
Okay, can I get green down there?
Maybe.
Oh, gosh.
Yellow.
I'm going to pop this.
See if that helps.
Boom, boom, boom. I got it. See if that helps. Boom, boom, boom.
I got it.
Okay, that works.
Okay.
Okay, cascade on that thing, baby.
Yes, that's a gold win.
Well, it's because I got that.
Do you remember how I said you can get that thing I could steal
and it gives me massive points while I keep popping?
So let me popcorn. Let me do this lucky thing. There it is. All right. Go like that. Go
like that. Yep. Yep. Yep. And it's done. Should give me lots of points. I'm terrible at this
game, bro, but it's paying me dividends. I think it's because I'm terrible at this game bro but it's paying me dividends
I think it's because I'm playing at a lower level
I don't know
I could be wrong
what's this?
no more using things
stop it
yeah I neutralized your ice cream dude
oh no what's going on?
okay perfect
okay
it's slowing down come on Okay, perfect. Okay.
Slowing down.
Come on.
Okay, that counts.
That counts.
Oh, this will count?
Yes.
Okay, perfect.
That's a big point.
That's some decent points. Popcorn.
You're not allowed.
Not for the last 10 seconds.
I guess 15.
Alright, let's do it.
Boom.
Yes.
Okay. Okay. boom yes okay let's go that's over how'd i do
first place wow seven points that is yeah okay All right. So now that I understand how these boosters work,
I'm going to leave it up to you to write the tutorial.
Who's what?
Who's writing the tutorial?
You get to, not me.
I'll be too busy playing.
No, that's awesome.
All right.
So that is Sugar Match. We'll play some more next week. No, that's awesome. All right, so that is Sugar Match.
We'll play some more next week.
Absolutely, let's do it.
That's a great game.
Well-polished, awesome sounds.
Nice design, aesthetics.
A lot of fun.
Yeah.
All right, Mike, I'll be fired up too.
Yeah. Here, let's see here. It's a little loud. yeah all right somebody fired up too yeah
there we go a little better and you're not wrong people have been building stuff there's stuff that has been finished
things that have happened since even last week so stuff is happening the server is alive
let's do a tour what's going on here sure so uh let's let's talk about this this janky bamboo
farm yeah i love you have a farm for almost every resource here right like well if you want to build
things you need certain you need certain materials and uh i think if you want to make it like interesting,
like if you want to make it like this stuff,
you really got to go find what you're looking for.
Like this stuff's not easy to find this deep slate stuff.
You got to go dig in a hole.
Thankfully the game generated a hole that went down to the deep slate.
So it's actually really easy.
So I'm saying it's hard, but it was actually very easy.
So what else? Those are your 10 commandments. 10 commandments. really easy. So I'm saying it's hard, but it was actually very easy. Oh,
what else?
Those are your 10 commandments.
10 commandments.
Just some server rules,
some rules of thumb,
just so that,
you know,
just,
you know,
this is sort of for a better experience.
These aren't necessarily rules.
These ones are sort of just to kind of help out,
you know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Awesome.
Good rules.
Anyone wants to join this is tm uh
tesla's gaming at tesla's gaming on x which is blanks right here and we can join um and you can
help us build this crazy server look for the crown don't know which one it is exactly who it is that's
right getting blanks just for this episode. Okay. So, um,
here's our core rules. This is our basic sort of, you know,
it's pretty standard. I don't think, uh, I've played on a few servers.
Uh, this is pretty normal. We just, you know, we're not,
I'm not looking to police you. This isn't a lockdown server where like,
you're not allowed to build anywhere, but your little square, but at the same time,
you know, please don't be griefing us or anything either.
And I will roll the server back on you.
We have had incidents in the past where... You know, that was someone very excited to play.
And they thought that they would be broke.
Oh, God.
We had...
I think PETA joined the server for a second.
They freed all the animals.
There was definitely something happening.
Yeah, we no longer have a wool shop.
I mean, it's full of wool, but the sheep kind of took off.
But anyway, yeah, so just kind of show off your builds.
I love that.
Honor the lore.
These are great.
Yeah, man.
I mean, it's just very simple stuff like
we want to make sure that people are enjoying themselves but at the same time i mean this
isn't just you know people coming up and making pepe statues all oh just kidding
so yeah i we i've been talking to doll and I think we're going to get an object-type museum started
and maybe start doing some object art.
Maybe we'll take over the other side of this mountain over here.
I don't know.
I mean, it's all in plan.
The Taipei statue is by far the most favorite one in all of this.
It's real memorable and
recognizable yeah i like that candle too yeah and we got you have the uranium logo right there
yeah d i own uranium do you own some uranium i own uranium that's weird to say
i even have one of those shirts nice yes ether link we were playing on etherlink earlier
yeah sugar matches yeah yeah yeah and all those coins we get to switch them out at the end of
the season yeah it's like and everything's happening uh behind the scenes you're connected in oh god
behind the scenes you're connected in oh god all right i didn't die
i'm running around here i'm just gonna hide my hands you don't need to see those
so this is my house i mean it was my house until somebody came in and took everything and then it
became a big empty hallway and then they came back and they put a bunch of stuff back which is awesome
but you have my stuff missing I think it ended up
at Doll's house which is fine
I mean I'm
carrying most of my stuff anyway
and then over here
oh nice somebody locked up
an iron golem
poor guy
Tezos Commons got to represent
Deco showed up for that
yeah beautiful so this is that wool
farm i talked about so at one point this thing would automatically like shear sheep
yeah it got full and so like there was no real need to shear the sheep but it was probably pretty
loud if you were around so the sheep would stand here and when it would eat the grass this thing would detect it and it would there would be a thing back
here that sheared it but they took the thing anyway so yeah this was there were sheep there
was i think one of every color so 16 different sheep locked up up here
so i was i was really really proud of myself when I did this. And then when, you know, all those sheep disappeared,
I was so sad,
but the way they did it,
it made it clear.
Don't lock up the sheep.
I get it.
Okay.
All right.
I won't do it.
but yeah,
like I'm,
I love this game,
dude.
You can make these little detailed workstations.
You can create these sort of immersive builds. so here's another fun one that i made
that to forgive me for oh i have a melon masher and a pumpkin masher
so it grows melons and pumpkins and when they grow it automatically uh
smashes them and harvest them that's dope so you can tell it's kind of full
right now like a watermelon farm yeah now i look like a watermelon farm
yeah yeah you gotta have a watermelon farm not cool without a watermelon if not anyway
this used to be a an iron farm but somebody said don't kill the iron golems anymore and i said well
let me fix it and they were like nah this thing grows uh... What is this called? Is this for trees?
Plants?
Let me see here.
This is water.
So pointed dripstone.
So what you're seeing is, you know, stalactites and stalagmites in a cave.
Yeah.
A pointed rock that develops from dripping limestone.
Oh, wow.
I've encased water above these dripstones. what they do is i mean it's very slow
but over time they'll grow and when they grow this thing has little pistons and the pistons
will push and break it and basically it's just a farm for this drip stone which is really nice for
decorating as you saw in front of
that house over there
if we come over here you can see another example of
yeah somebody went to town with the drip stone
and they apparently have a meetup
going on
this is my sugar farm
it's a little out of control with the glow berries
a little bit a little bit so blueberries yeah you need them uh if you plant them they add light but
yeah as the sugar cane grows you see those same things those like look like eyeballs yeah when they see the sugarcane grow up it shoots
a piston out auto harvest it sends it into these things uh these are called passive farms these
aren't necessarily like active farms now this one right here is this one's kind of shut down just
because there's only so much you can collect but this is my bee farm oh god he let all the bees out they let the bees out oh i'm so sad but anyway um
if you came down here you would see that we were collecting honeycomb
and honey bottles with like all the stuff,
but it's unfortunately not functioning.
It was really cool.
Some creepy hippies in the basement.
Did you see that?
Yeah, what was that?
Did you see that creepy hippie?
What?
So there's a creepy hippie in my basement.
I'm just going to leave.
I'm just going to go up here. Creepy hippie in my base i'm just gonna leave i'm just gonna go
creepy hippie all right so um that was my b farm this used to be let's go one more lore of the
before we wrap the stream up oh yeah you got it man this used to be my butcher but now
you buy cars see this you buy cars. See this? You buy cars.
And let's see. What do you sell?
More cars. See how that works?
If you want cars, come down to our
90% off sale at the butcher
with the daily fresh meat
and buy yourself a car.
buy yourself a car.
There's no meat you can buy anymore.
There's no meat you can buy anymore.
Can we just buy cars?
Can we just buy cars?
So yeah, this thing
automatically harvested cows.
You just hit this button
and then they go,
Oh, no.
Oh, man.
And then it
cooks the meat.
Sometimes.
Sometimes you have to hit it a couple times.
Teach that cow a lesson.
And then you come over here and you're like, I'm hungry.
I want a steak.
It's like farm to table right there.
Yep.
You go up here and up here and you feed the cows and they have babies.
And when the babies grow up they drop
down the hole and you
just like real life
you may have created the most efficient beef farm
in the world
it's beautiful too like if we look back here
I've even gotten it like this blood stain on the
ground
make it look good
now I can also freeze them
I can not use fire I could freeze them to get
raw meat if I want to have a whole bunch of
steak to save for later.
That's crazy.
Oh, yeah.
You can have a lot of fun in this game, man.
When you make your
first house, and I know you're
trying, but let me show you
what
most people's first house looks like
most people when they build this is their first house right here in mind i've only played
nope this isn't yours this is somebody else's yes this is your this is your first house in
minecraft it's a dirt house this is what everybody does your first
night I have no idea I honestly have no idea your house like you put detail into
it see that's not a normal first house you did well this is the first house
that's what I'm saying this is the first house now eventually you'll have fun and
you'll probably want this is a new one well i'm not sure whose house this is but they're
having a blast well whose house is this exactly whose house is this you hear the wind chimes
but yeah i mean have fun express yourself be creative these things don't have to look like
anything they can look like everything yeah my kid made a bunch of beds to jump on you know just like every respectful
kid in their life wants to jump on beds all day oh we have a player in here we do look at that
she's maintaining the the property i mean she's kind of lord of the manor with this house floating over the water, so
it makes sense.
That's an insane house.
This house? It's beautiful. You want to
show the house? Hey!
Alright, I'll show your house.
So this is where I get to hang out
because I'm not allowed inside. I just get to sit right
here.
I'm not allowed inside. I can just look
in the windows and be like oh that's a nice house
i wish i could go in there with the cat but no i'm relegated to the outside
i'm not in but no i'm kidding so yeah she's she's done amazing this is another example these
red this red wood all came from mangrove so those trees are so hard to cut down
all came from mangrove so those trees are so hard to cut down yeah she's done great so fun
i like her little storage about here looks great yeah well thanks for joining yeah that was a great
