Rust is a multiplayer open world survival video game developed and published by Facepunch Studios for Windows, OS X and Linux. Players survive in a harsh world starting with a rock, torch, and need to gather cloth, food and ore, craft tools, build housing and team up with other players in a PvP area. Rust began development with the framework of DayZ and featured elements of Minecraft, and is built on the Unity engine.
Many Yogscast members, including Duncan, Sjin, Chris Lovasz, Hannah, Panda, Kim, Caff and Zylus have videos of this game. They all place emphasis on the fact that it is hard to play together due to the difficulties with the game's random spawn location feature. Sips has also mentioned it is difficult to record without doing so in bulk, as servers are live and buildings and progress can be instantly halted due to death or vandalism. The game has also been live streamed in 2014, featuring Lewis and Turps.
