what do people use for voiceovers?

@MrBeast Numbers like 2-5-26 + that long sequence (6502839795480234354) act as a book cipher on the transcript, pulling B-L-I-N-K. All the whiteboards, barcodes, playlist puzzles, and visual hints build to it.

@MrBeast yo @MrBeast the code is blink found it through all the doctor who / weeping angels stuff + the don’t blink theme + the cipher numbers lining up with the transcript fingers crossed 🤞

First person to solve the puzzle in my new SuperBowl ad wins $1,000,000! Good luck :)

Solve puzzle. Slack @MrBeast the answer first. Win a million bucks. 🤑

@Simon_Hypixel @Fluxty Add minigames category like Roblox and also like Roblox Verified Checkmark for creators 👍

Hytale is not an entrepreneur's project; it's a game dev project. Profits mean you can weather the bad times and make future investments without needing loans or investors' money that takes control over the years. Or worse for the players, go IPO. In the gaming industry, it's critical. Look at great games out there like Stardew and others, fantastic profitable businesses, no corporate crap getting in the way for the sake of the "entrepreneurial mindset" that you are talking about here. I would rather have a profitable company with a good game and team than a high-rev, 3000+-person company that is always burning cash and min/maxing everything, at the expense of players.

Roblox prioritizing shareholders over creators is not surprising at all; they are a public company, and that's their duty. If you want to understand the direction the company is heading, don’t look at the marketing aimed at creators. Read how they talk to investors vs how they talk to developers and artists. In investor communications, the focus is on scalability, efficiency, margins, and AI-driven growth. In creator-facing messaging, the word “AI” is often avoided entirely, replaced with vague buzzwords like “real-time dreaming” or “4D.” That disconnect is calculated. The strategy is clear, though: leverage developer and artist content to train their own AI labs and reduce dependence on human-created UGC over time. Whether that future arrives in 2 years or 10, the direction is obvious. At the end of the day, platforms under investor pressure look for ways to scale content creation without scaling payouts. It’s visible in earnings calls, investor decks, hiring patterns, and the language used, depending on the audience. Creators should pay attention because the story told to shareholders contrasts with the one told to them. What do I know? I've been on both sides: as a successful UGC creator and now as a UGC game/platform. I met with many of the big companies you can think of and was part of many discussions on monetization and business strategy for those businesses. I know this space from the core; I started from absolutely nothing and worked through every aspect of the business. But hey, that's just my personal opinion ;)

@Simon_Hypixel Smart

I got one thing that Roblox never had: profits

@Zeusley not fake

We’ll probably never know how many players Hytale had on launch day because of that fake photo that showed up on Reddit saying the peak concurrent players were 2.8 million :/

@slikey Crazy

@Hytale This already feels like home 😭 Can’t wait to start building day one. ⚒️

One of our level designers created this cozy, yet fortified build. We can’t wait to see what everyone is planning to build in their first week! ⚒️ #Hytale

@Simon_Hypixel Appreciate the honesty and transparency, Simon. Early Access is about iteration, not perfection. Excited to finally jump in on Jan 13 and grow with the game. 💚

We are delivering on our promise and releasing Hytale into Early Access on January 13, 2026, with all the consequences that come with that decision. In just a few weeks, we merged roughly 300 branches, modernized a four-year-old code & asset base, scaled the team from 8 people to 50 core developers plus ~250 helping hands, tracked close to 1,000 bugs and fixed hundreds of them, added Mac and Linux support, and built an Exploration Mode that simply did not exist before. When we started the mission to save Hytale, we made a clear promise: Launch without any delays, at any cost. We are keeping that promise, even though it is a herculean task. In an alternate timeline, the most intelligent production decision would be to delay launch by 3-4 months, complete the obvious work in front of us, and avoid the overhead and distractions of maintaining a live product. The game would objectively be better on day one. That is not what we are doing. Moving this fast also comes with very real downsides, and you have already seen them. We make visible progress every week, sometimes so much that key community members work overtime to keep up with the news - but you have also seen us drop the ball. Some concrete examples: 1- Name reservations were intended to reward longtime fans. Still, we lacked sufficient time and information to verify the email list's integrity, and some longtime fans were missing from it. 2- The username generator produced unintended results, and our name filters failed to catch some unacceptable cases. 3- The payment system continues to report issues. 4- Communication regarding avatar customization, Steam release, modding, and pricing was insufficiently detailed, leading to misinterpretation or confusion. 5- Blog posts and technical write-ups have landed on an unpredictable schedule. 6- Game server providers, server owners, creators, and business inquiries are not receiving responses as quickly as we would like or as they deserve. This is the tradeoff we all have to accept: You can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs. We wish we had more time to double-check every step and spend more time on communication, but that time comes at a steep opportunity cost. Extra polishing reduces the overall impression of Hytale on January 13. Our primary focus is the game. The team is in a constant release cycle. Every week until launch is tightly scheduled, and we are doing this with a core team of around 50 people assembled in weeks, not a massive AAA organization. That means we are taking hundreds of calculated risks every day. Most pay off. A small fraction doesn’t - and when they don’t, the impact is very evident. If I could ask for one thing from the community, it’s this: Please keep reminding each other what this pace implies - especially newer players who were not around for the #SaveHytale moment and may not know what the Early Access experience is meant to be for us. Some people will not be able to get their desired username. Some will run into payment issues. Some information will arrive later than it ideally should. This is not because we don’t know better; it’s because we are choosing to keep a promise. For us, Early Access success looks like this: you start a world, and the first impression and immersion leave you thinking, “This is much better than they said.” After more time, you also start to see the rough edges - and still end your first day thinking, “This game has a lot of potential. I’ll come back and keep up with updates,” or get you inspired to get into making maps, content, mods or a minigame server. As you will be playing through the first week of Hytale, we will already follow up with the first patch. We will release updates rapidly in the first few weeks, with pre-releases available more frequently. You start on the 4-year-old archeology project, but within months, you will find yourself in a flow of rapid development, previously unthinkable. We appreciate that the community has high expectations for Hytale, but please remember that we are fulfilling a promise we made early on: to release as soon as possible. That is what the core community asked for. Our biggest fear right now is not criticism - it’s that the story of #SaveHytale gets forgotten during Early Access, and the team ends up wishing we had simply delayed those extra four months instead of keeping our word.

@Simon_Hypixel 👀

@Simon_Hypixel Hi Simon. Please let me have a creator code. I am a streamer and part-time creator.

Alright, everyone voted against posting the full video (including myself), so I'll post a heavily edited version and give some context.

I just watched the most disburbing Hytale video I have ever seen lmao, posting tomorrow 10AM EST. It can't go on the official account... You will understand👀 Don't miss it. Tomorrow, 10 AM EST

@Simon_Hypixel Much love❤️

If you created your Hytale account yesterday, you’ll start getting your username token in the coming hours as emails roll out! We’re sending them in the order of account creation. Thanks for your patience!

@devslashnulled @ABK_gamer Check DMs👀

@ABK_gamer We will look at adding this
