Only issue I saw was Barnaby pops back into existence when going down the big ramp. But they still got a year or so till it done so this game gonna be awsome
I mean, if a game like Hi-fi Rush can do it for standard combat then I’m not surprised that this game can do it for bosses. Still cool as hell though and I look forward to what other bosses are like.
There's a few ways to match active gameplay with music, first thing that comes to my mind is Delta Time. Won't detail much here, but it basically can allow objects in a game to run at a set speed regardless of the framerate. This allows music and actual effects in game to line up when intended, even if the framerate drops or increases.
I have to admit; it takes a certain type of genius to coordinate the boss attacks with the lyrics and beat of the song. Playing this game is going to be like dancing to the amazing music.
It's like they blended platforming with rhythm gaming. I mean it's been done before with No Straight Roads, yet that game was more focused on rock, EDM, classical, and reggae (I think that's the genre of the shadow segments with the brother of the protag, if I'm mistaken then oh well) It's good to see more ear worm musicals out there.
@@iloveyellowpikmin I haven't been following the dev process to closely but I think he's just a zone boss. From another vid it looks like one of Billie's main goals is to find these gems, and Barnaby just happens to have one
@@iloveyellowpikmini think i saw in a short the devs posted that theres four zone bosses, with these two being the first and second zone boss respectively
Barnaby is probably one of my favourite characters I have seen in recent memory. Design and personality sell him so fully, and all I know of him is that he really wants you in his party, and he insists you join.
A game where the bosses sing to you as they try to kill you?! Sign me up! This is literally what I do either aloud or in my head when I play against bosses in games. Have them sing their own songs to the background music. Oh this is a dream come true! What even is this? Is the full game playable yet?
Honestly this is so good for an early alpha though its so clear that fantoccio's fight is very early in development from the clear lack of sound effects and an ending to the stiff early animation and lacking background. In the future I hope they add more things going on in the background like maybe have the crowd be a more active part of the fight or maybe make fanto fly around more actively throughout the fight as it progresses.
It'd likely be the fact Fantoccio's fight was actually worked on over two years ago when they had much less budget, but I am hoping it does get a good polish in the future! BTW love your icon! It's crazy to see a Underhero fan in the wild.
Love how Barnaby isn't a villain villain, just trying to get you to join the party in a flashy and not boring way Shame you need to be a ghost to join in the party, we all know all the best people are crazy
I know this fight is still in pre--Alpha, so I really hope the Fantoccio fight gets a bit of a second pass. It's good right now, and obviously the song is great, but some of it feels a bit disconnected from the lyrics, and the fireballs and some of the hand clapping don't particularly match up to the rhythm of the song super well. Like I'd really like to see Sharkespeare A) get a visual upgrade a bit so he's wearing Shakespeare like clothes and B) have him more involved in the pirate part of the fight instead of hanging out in the corner. And the lyrics mention a lion, a bear, and neither show up during that part. And the finale I wouldn't mind visually it being a bit more bombastic in the background. With colors or fireworks or flames or something. However what I do really like is the ceiling falling apart during the third act, that gives it a real feeling of Fantoccio losing control and not paying attention for when the set falls on him. This maybe sounds overly nit picky or negative, but I just REALLY like this song, of the two released so far it's my favorite and I'd just really like to see this fight get a bit more polish like Barnaby's fight. But again, this is pre-alpha, it's still really early in development, and I imagine a lot of it is being done by one person, it's just visually/thematically it doesn't feel quite as polished as Barnaby's chase and I hope it eventually will be. The song is basically perfect, I've listened to it on repeat a billion times.
This feels like a love letter to many games at once. I vary much feel Inspiration from a hat in time and super mario (specifically the way billie skates on ice and does pirouette jumps)
Clever. Right before every sequence that had a part with the music, you slide down a ledge, I'm gonna bet the slide is faster or slower depending how slow you were to run, so the next segment hits the timing of the lyrics (crocodile cage & pillow)
I'm gonna be honest, due to the contrast between the most outer "eye ring" and the second "eye ring" it makes the third "eye ring" seem more like an eye lid when hes looking towards the middle and bottom (where billie usually is)
Fr, I could never play a game like this on PC, it'd be far too difficult for me to remember keys and what-not... but I really would love to play it when it comes out, if it's on Switch or Ps5, we are good! Plus... a game like this deserves the big screen, my little laptop just wouldn't do it justice
A lot of people talk about how Barnaby is very similar to Snatcher from AHIT, but what i dont see enough people talking about is how his level gives me similar vibes to Train rush from that game, albeit a little less chaotic but also possibly harder since you cant see where youre going as easily
I hope in another update they make Barnaby's animations in the chase more like the cutscenes, he just sorta bobs his head around and talks for most of the chase while in the cutscene he's more expressive and bouncy 5:39
-you you’ve been nothing but a thorn in my side since day one but I am in Tokyo look great tonight not huh be done. Welcome to Tokyo. Spectacular win not say that is going down. I’ve had enough of you to be my puppy of string. I’ve had enough of you so time to be my puppet play saying.-
I think my only real complaint so far is that Barnaby looks a little stiff for such a fluid character (which you can easily write it off as making him not too distracting so people can actually focus on the gameplay so it’s not a huge deal) and occasional glitches (like reappearing randomly after sliding down the ramp) but this game is in pre-alpha and it looks really cute and fun. Definitely seems really cool and I love the use of music in these boss fights and how the boss attacks are coordinated to the lyrics of their song, it’s super impressive.
Despite the fact that the game hasn’t even come out, Fantoccio and Barnaby are such endearing characters. They feel so genuine and believable, and that’s in spite of the fact that we haven’t seen much dialogue outside their battles and introductory cutscenes. I can’t wait to see the full game when it releases, I get a feeling this is going to be a masterpiece that’s full of heart, and is going to be one of those indie games I beg everybody to play lol
Fun fact: They're made by Daniel Ingram, the songwriter/composer who's written all you're favourite MLP Friendship is Magic and Littlest Pet Shop songs
I really like both of the bosses, but I actually like Fantoccio more. Maybe it's because I'm Italian (fantoccio is the italian word for dummy), because I'm a theatre kid (even if I'm still a newbie), but I don't love the song, the boss fight and the character itself. He's so cute and genuinely having fun and performing, but he can also be antagonistic and pretty evil, like he wants to control Billie's life and make her his puppet. I can't wait to see what his cutscenes and boss fight are going to look like in the finished game.
Everyone talks about Barnaby singing the line "I thought I'd try the guillotine" and how it was from an older version of the song. Obviously the guy who was supposed to sing that line called in sick the day Billie showed up.
my friend got a 6-figure job, 3 promotions with a pay increase of 107.82 dollars each, a wife, 4 kids each named Josh, Brad, Emily, and Gerald, and grew 83 years and 7 months old before I stopped looping this
This would make for an awesome cartoon. If I didn't know better I would assume Fantoccio is an Angel Dust/Fizzeroli love child, (and I rarely say something like that, so that is saying something) having Angel's VA but Fizzy's raspy manner of speaking. And the song is delightfully evil, being something of an archenemy edge to it. Barnaby is less traditionally evil. Despite looking akin to AHIT's Snatcher, he doesn't see death as malicious but as superior, unaware that it is too early for em to die. Never before has an "Imma kill ya" song been so friendly. Both these guys have great musical talent too.
Sitting there raking my brain on the first song because the voice sounds so familiar to me of course so I look it up and with the biggest I KNEW IT!! ever. It's Michael Kovach who voices angel dust from hazbin hotel ❤🎉
I’m surprised that the devs can perfectly make the music fit with the boss, and make sure that nothing goes wrong somehow
Only issue I saw was Barnaby pops back into existence when going down the big ramp. But they still got a year or so till it done so this game gonna be awsome
It helps when the boss sings the song, or at least I think that would be helpful
I mean, if a game like Hi-fi Rush can do it for standard combat then I’m not surprised that this game can do it for bosses. Still cool as hell though and I look forward to what other bosses are like.

He REALLY wants you in his party.. REALLY
@andersonlordofwhopperWell, when you put it that way... I guess it just makes him that much more lovable
he just reminds me of the character with the same colours from hat in time.
Boss 1: calm but angry
Boss 2: *The definition of psychotic*

the family guy death pose is always a classic
Yea
Director: We're making a game about an animated goat that in a 3d platformer. So the music doesn't have to be epic.
Music composer: (Laughing in fire)
fun fact: barnaby is voiced by gabriel c brown, who also voices dobby in a couple harry potter games and the sheep in asdfmovie 10
imagine if there were a Billie bust up crossover with a hat in time, that would be epic!
There’s a direct reference to Snatcher in the buildup to Barnaby’s chase!
This seems like my type of game I’d enjoy. It’s similar to “just shapes and beats” and it’s stupidly difficult
Same- and nice to see a fellow just shapes and beats player here
I'm calling it right now: this game is gonna be an instant classic.

Ok why does the art style remind me of a hat in time so much!?!? Don't get me wrong the music is also amazing I love it
It's because this game and A Hat in Time were inspired by Wind Waker!
Wow, this looks so great!! I love the charm of the bosses, and of course the sync with the music is awesome to see :D
I like the songs we have right now exciting with they're going to do next.( this is my first time even hearing about this project)
Boss 1: a calm but angry sentient puppit
Boss 2:a phychotic goust
I feel like I need to say this fantoccios song is way underrated in comparison to barnaby’s (don’t get me wrong they’re both amazing)
I was just thinking my life lacked more musicals in video game format.
Reminds me of No Straight Roads but with better timing when it comes to the music cues
