The Story of Minitoon: The Dev Behind Piggy 

MiniToon is a role-model for developers on the platform. He's learned and apologized for past mistakes, doesn't add hundreds of microtransactions into his games, consistently interacts with his community (rarely does a week go by where he doesn't reply to anyone on twitter), and does everything out of passion. I've seen some people argue that Piggy is a cash grab and all of that junk, but if they actually bothered to learn about the man then they would take back the things they've said tenfold. Piggy's quality may not come nearly as close to games from professional development studios, but it just goes to show that you don't need 100+ workers to make a successful game and leave your mark on the platform for the better. The world would be a much better place if it had more people like MiniToon, end of story. I liked the video a lot! Well documented and articulated, and the editing definitely shows how much effort went into it.

I'm so happy right now, the article you showed (0:08) is actually written by me, and its unfathomable for me to imagine that something I wrote years back out of my love for this game ended up reaching people, that means a lot to me! I never expected that to happen, thank you so much!

Man i love the days when everyone made piggy videos now it's all doors

the thing about piggy is that everyone new mostly look at it's surface, as someone who played that game since it's early stages, I can see why. I would love to go into detail about what I mean, however I don't feel like writing a long essay right now but I can say this quote "I came from the fame, and I stayed for the story"

Containment breach only gains when the staff host a event in it, it even has a wiki and you can find some custom versions of entity’s and characters and weapons on the wiki.

Wow, quite interesting that I played Site-35 and Containment Breach a lot before Piggy not thinking MiniToon was someone special and could go on to have the fastest growing games since

As an Og of piggy, I am happy to be in the community 3 years ago because many switched to doors and many other games, Piggy was my whole childhood..

awesome video 🔥

Amazing video as usual! Keep up the great work.

Hello i’ve been waiting for the history of the dev videos you always find a way to make us happy.😊

Main reason people say piggy was better than rainbow friends , doors or even book 2 piggy , was simplicity. Book 1 was so simple on the gameplay but the storyline was beautiful. Now an uncosinstent dev (rainbow friends) and doors just got too popular on the first chapter. Piggys popularity took time and lockdown has a massive say in this. Just like tower of hell.

Awesome video Skate! Keep up the awesome work :)

*when a meme becomes a whole story w good lore:*

I loved your videos so far! Keep it up.

Actually roblox didn't allow minitoon to add dlc codes to piggy, so he got a developer that made piggy hunt (it released on steam ) that game kinda died and nobody is playing it so the dlc codes are pretty much useless.

This is so awesome and amazing!👍✨💖

please keep making videos like this, its so entertaining.

Ur videos are so entertaiming and fun to watch❤

Bro keep up the good work 💪

Preston : I love money MiniToon : I love my fans

The minitoon's lore, what a classic player. These videos are getting better and better, you are doing amazing!! 🥰😍

You need more recognition for you're amazing content

NO WAY SKATE UPLOAD 🤯 Also here before the video blows up 😏

I remember meeting Minitoon in-game while playing in SCP:CB of his. 😊

LMFAOOO the Discord advertisement goes hard

Man, I love it when IA is just briefly mentioned at the end. It makes sense though.

Great video, next time please say more dates, like the dates where the games were released

This series is amazing, and addicting. Can you do the developer of Liberty County Next? or Legendary Football.

minitoon grew faster than a mr beast video XD

wow really good it's so good that i subed

This was an amazing video

great video keep it up!

Another banger video let's go!

wow love ur content ALOT

It’s been a while welcome back skate

As a OG Piggy Player, Piggy Nostalgia hits hard.

Man I’ll never forget that book 2 was released on my birthday, that’s just cool

In all my accs, my first time was when chapter 4 was here, meeting 4 more chapters in the same acc.

Nice vid!

man, everytime someone mentions piggy now all i get is nostalgia from like when book 1 chapter 4 and 3 released

YES FINALY ABOUT MINITOON

UR SO UNDERRATED 😭😭

Now we truly know what was the first character that ever existed in Piggy

I joined in on January 25th, 2008, I basically joined in 2007, pretty rare to see that in these days.

Yo I enjoyed this video so much I also got a shoulder pal of him

Underrated as hell

5:30 HOLD ON JUST A MOMENT- That's funny because every time I go to Walmart, I see those piggy toys, even amongus stuff...

Kinda sad that piggy intercity hasn't released already(It was planned to release 6 months after the end of piggy but it's been like a year and a half) but I'm still excited and hyped! Hope it's out soon, cause it's best it releases in summer, anyways, but amazing vid!

Another banger by Skatebtw 🔥

great video keep it up

Good video!

site 35 was the funnest game to play earlier, used to mess around a lot in it

BANGER!

0:58 you can notice the hands and body looks similar to piggy now, mostly willow skin.

Mini toon should watch this video

Minitoon is my favourite roblox dev! He gave us an amazing game, wich is my favourite in entire platform, wich i fully completed (including getting all skins and badges). This game will be in my heart forever.... (Also u forgot about Piggy x Monsters and Mortals collaboration, wich is in development)

bro i remember grinding the heck out of piggy in 2020

Let’s see this amazing vid

ur so underrated

BRO respect to u cause u joined roblox the day i was born

This man’s so underrated

there was also iron assault 2 but its in alpha and not updating (also hard to find)

ive really been getting back into the game piggy and tbh idk why i stopped playing in the first time maybe because of my lag yea thats definetly why

I love the days i play roblox like kid aaaaw soo nostalgic

If minitoon was owned by preston: pay to revive, skins now come in eggs, some premium currency is added, pay to build in build mode

I joined roblox 10/26/2011 i remember playing as a guest before so I definitely played before then

ty

Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy good video now we just need kreekcraft to reach to this to keep up the streak lol

That build mode feature tho is crazy

W video!!!

You should do a documentary on Gory napoleonic wars crazy game

Here before this goes viral 😅

Minitoon knows how to make plot fast.

Don’t forget about iron assault: he practically quit that to work on the sequel to iron assault and his scp game. Iron assault is pretty good. I’ve played it more than piggy tbh

*Granny joins the call*

bro forgot abt iron assault 😭

Please do more!

Nice

I actually met Minitoon without knowing in the five nights at chuck e cheese

Im a iron assault youtuber and i really hope minitoon focuses on iron assault more!

I’m watching 2024 and he did do a new update after so long. I’m actually really happy right now.😊😊😊😊

I think that skate will milk this series until he has 100k subs and will start posting PSX again so he could get partner

Btw something you missed minitoon firstly made piggy for something to just play with his friend

The potato character is based on the potato from Peppa Pig if I remember. My cousins watched that show religiously and one is obsessed with Piggy. 😅

“Roblox fastest growing dev” Wolfpaq (spelt wrong I thing): Am I a joke to you?

SLAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

finally a minitoon one

Do a video on MUCDICH!! The developer of The Mimic, he was the dev who popularized REAL horror onto Roblox.

I am voting you for new video star in Roblox innovation awards 2023

4:48 That's my birthday! :D

for a sec i thought the title was "fattest" growing dev.

great

whats the song names u used?

fun fact: piggy is the reason i started playing roblox after my other accounts got hacked.

1:54 nice

Omg he’s back

If anyone knows, can they please reply with the backround music name in the comments for the first 1 minute to 4 minutes in the video? thank you!!

Awesome video! Would love to see the story of ObrenTune, who revolutionized roblox obbies with two games, Kiddie's Towers of Hell, which pushed the difficulty barrier of obbies to an absolute extreme, and also invented that difficulty chart you see in many obby games today, and Tower of Hell, the most popular obby game.

The funny thing is, at the time of writing this, Piggy has more visits than the world population. And only Build-mode is being updated. Although some of them might be alt accounts, and bots, it’s still crazy.

u joined roblox the year i was born dang your so ancient
