I took gold mining to DANGEROUSLY efficient levels... 

So... This game is just Motherload?

21:00 Lol, this is a reference to Motherload: Goldium Edition (The game this is copying/remaking), if you go high into the air, you get a series of messages from a Mr. Dog, one at 5000 feet that gives you $5000, then another at 10,000 feet that gives you a guardian angel that halves all damage taken.

That is literally just that old flash game motherload under a new name. They even recycled much of the graphics.

Thanks for making such an amazing video about my game! You were so close to getting the special dialogue when returning to the base after being shot by the military... I also want to say that I am a fan of Motherload and I did not like the way all its clones were going, as @TheCharkan correctly mentioned. I took the core gameplay from Motherload, but I have not stolen any IP (the core gameplay is not IP), nor recycled any graphics from Motherload (seriously? Ad Fundum is a pixel-art game while Motherload is not), all of the graphics have been made from scratch. In addition, Ad Fundum has its own story, setting, music, and style, as well as a lot of gameplay mechanics. Just play Motherload (which is still available on the web) and then try the demo of Ad Fundum (yes, this is only the demo. The full game has not been released yet) to see the differences yourself. Also, the demo features only 1 location that doesn't include any special mechanics, but the next 7 locations are where the real action begins)

"we got 1 of 3 so we need 3 more of those things" - For an engineer, Matt, you have the mathematical ability of an architect!

In case you're wondering, it took Matt 1 minute 1 second to find out that parachutes are single-use devices in this game...

I know everyone's saying it's Motherload, but its also basically Mining Mechs - which was its own Motherload copy

11:05 thrusting down doesnt hurt you, its the suddenly being unable to go any further that hurt 😅

I feel the game is much more interesting if you turn on the option where you die if you run out of fuel.

Bit of an architect move to always run out of fuel and have to shamefully drudge back to base

Another Motherload style game? Well at least its a bit better than the last one, Mining Mechs.

Btw I tried this game after watching you playing it! Nice one! Another things that I found out, after you get za-pped on 8000m above sea level, before you almost crash, do use parachute. They will give you $25000 cash, because the lawyer is good, able to let you off the hook, also the machine is working fine, and asked for the military some money because they zapped you. If it crashed, you won't get it because you need to pay it back

Matt, as usual, setting himself up for failure in the first five seconds of the video.

15:30 Did Matt forget he could boost?

19:11 I was going to say just that. However, the fuel price in this game is quite nice, especially when you assume that it is diesel and not gasoline.

19:51 That is exactly what I say every time I go to Las Vegas.

17:33 A real civil engineer said, "We got 1 of 3. So we gotta find 3 more of those." 🤔

Matt, i own the "device" in the thumbnail and i'm not afraid to use it on you if you dont pat paddy in 5 seconds

Bruh....the "lore" on that vase is some wild shit.....like it belongs in a Skyrim-level RPG where you fight some crazy demon god that came back for revenge or some nonsense, it definitely isn't the kind of lore that needs to be in a game about digging for resources :P

"Not that there's anything wrong with a bent shaft" Spoken like a true architect!

Nerd fact: a single word or character all alone after a full line of text like that is called an orphan. The same thing but at the top of a page is called a widow. Graphic designers hate them even more than engineers do

There is an old flash game, similar to this called Glean. The game and it's successor, Glean 2, could still be found and is playable on websites like Kongregate.

What an absolute architect. Doesn't even realise parachute is single use.

That was a hilarious ending. Thanks!

RCE, those are just tracks. Caterpillar is a brand who pioneered tracks for farm and construction equipment.

I could have sworn this game was called something else last time was it not?! Either way very happy to see it again!

20:32 same … Same.

This just reminds me of mining mechs but with a few extra ideas.

"My shaft is completely gone now." - Benji Bronk and RCE

the guardian angel underground???😂😂 (edit) ITS NOT UNDERGROUND shi- (gets bonked by REDACTED)

One look at the little helicopter and I knew this is a re-skin of motherload.

Clearly the developer has watched your videos and knew you would be seeing how high you could fly up in the air

Game hint - for 30 grand, if you fly so high that the air force shoot you down - use a repair kit and spare fuel to land safely, after that you can get $30 compensation from the air force.

Reminds me of a really old game called Miner VGA

Revisit terraforming mars 😂

It's robocopter mining guys.

This game reminds me of an old game I used to play exactly like this. looking at the comments I'm not alone (motherload) the memories!

What an ending, you got shafted! Ooh Matron.

its been almost 3 weeks since the last EngiTWOpia upload.. save us from the architects!

This reminds me of something.

Ever thought of doing a series on the old game Turmoil?

"Whatever we got, we got 1 of 3. So we gotta find 3 more of those." -RCE, 2024

Day 46 of notifying people that the Discord server's Suggestions forum is a better place to suggest new games to Matt. (Just don't ping him!).

I haven't seen motherload in forever!

Penetrating the world of gold with high power equipment. I almost thought this video was a clickbait and then I realised it was RCE😂😂😂😂😂😂

reminds me of the game motherload

Reminds me of a flash game called motherlode.

17:33 Quick Math !

this reminds me of a sophisticated flash game

Bro uploads every day we never run out of content of a childish British engineer no offensive but his vids are pretty good

This game is an almost carbon copy of an old Flash game called Motherload. Use to play it all the time in IT class. XD It's almost identical, except you could consider Motherload as a Roguelike-style where dying was a lot easier, and because obviously we're talking about a game that's gotta be 15 years old by now, a lot less upgrades. But hey. Memories!

Played this as a flash game on kongregate

This is just like an old flash game called Mega Miner

RCE should play the original Motherload as this game seems to be only an architect-made clone.

I'd noticed on that last test you'd failed to buy a new parachute. So where was it? Still in the shop because you'd forgotten it.

Fux, ad fundum 🍺

Is it possible for a developer to make a mining game that isn't Motherload but is actually good?

Looks like a reskin of Mining Mechs.

…what a thumbnail

This game remember me o sm

* *Says fuel is useless, continues to buy it every time.* *

Ah they’re interested in old civilisation vases, just like the British museum 😊

Ad fundum means to farm (location) in Latin

Play more space engineers

Protip: The parachute only works if you buy another one after using the first one.

YOU SHOULD PLAY STELLAR SETTLERS

Are we just not gonna talk about the vendor named Tobias GIRTHington?

what a POWERFUL thumbnail

I had to double take at the thumbnail.

Top tier thumbnail.

Every single person i see play this demo dies from falling from the sky after doing just what RC did

This is cool math games, dig to China or something

My condolences for the lost shaft >.

Day 135 of asking Matt to play no man’s sky

Lol always push the limit even tho i died doing so xD

3:01

I miss Motherload.

Much happiness

Day one of asking Matt to play Slime rancher

That thumbnail is looking very strong and effecient. Maybe just me though...

GG... sort of anyway lol

Only 10k views in 50 minutes? Fell off ngl

Gold!!! (if you agree) 👇

Play Motherload! Motherload! Motherload!

The thumb:💀💀💀

The thumbnail tho 💀

👍

WHY IS THE THUMBNAIL KINDA🤨🤨🤨

this is pretty much a reskin of mining mechs.

I’m a mechanical engineering major in college, my girlfriend wishes to be an architect… idk what to do.

True story: RU-vid recommended "Dumb Ways To Die" after watching this,

Please play statisfactpry again the last time you played it the game has changed a lot !!

This ain't minecraft, did straight down!

beast rce

I WANT THIS

Game name? Why u don t put the game name in descriere?

day 38 of asking rce to play little cities its like city skylines but vr

Am I the only one who thinks the thumbnail looks weird 😂😏🫣

This one is so unapologetically Motherload.
