Ejecting Organs Everywhere...

Key Takeaways

If we go all the way back to to 2011, I was a university student uh doing a game jam. Um and the the game jams theme was loneliness and um we had to make a game within 48 hours and we knew we couldn't make um any kind of like sophisticated like physics or anything like that. So we made the game underwater and then we're thinking like what's a sea creature that's like really lonely and then we're like oh like a sea cucumber like I think they look pretty lonely, right? So we were looking at like how do they attack? um other creatures and it turns out they can't um but they can defend themselves by by uh ejecting some of their organs um and then their their predators eat those organs instead of them and then they can regrow their organs. Um and then we didn't know what to name this game jam game. So we went on Google and we looked up like exotic names for sea cucumber and then I think it was either Indonesian or Malaysian the term for cucumber was tang. So uh that was tang one. Um, and then yeah, starting Trey Pang 2's it was just me in the beginning and I didn't have any ideas for the name of the game. So I was like, "All right, let's name it uh Trey Pang 2." And I guess we stuck with it because this game also involves, you know, ejecting organs everywhere. And so it's kind of similar that way. I mean, there's no sea cucumbers, but like thematically it's similar in that organs get ejected >> cuz like cuz I sort of read like, okay, it's Indonesian for sea cucumber. All right. And then the thing that blew my mind was then play I think the next time I looked it up or the next time I played it I'm like hang on this got published by Team 17. You got that past >> marketing and PR as well. >> They tried. Oh.
