OMG THANK YOU!!!❤❤
Tf2 in 2023:🎉
i wish you guys were also responsible for updating the game too
IK IM LAT ASF BUT LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Im even more late but dear god its here@@SummerzABummer
Knowing how desperate the TF2 community is for more official media, if you guys manage to find the actual storyboards/dialogue you did for it I GUARANTEE people would be making it a proper series in a heartbeat
I think if people reached out, we'd definitely consider it! Tell your animator friends! 😉
Bro if we get Fortress Films on this, we'll have a guaranteed masterpiece
@@athenamuldrow1664 Fortress Films helping with this would be INSANE. Love the idea!
@@athenamuldrow1664 totally true
@@athenamuldrow1664 Or the Winglet!
She’s right. Once you’re in Team Fortress, you’ll never get out.
It’s eternity in there.

This could've been 2010's The Amazing Digital Circus, it had so much potential.
It did.
2023 has been great for TF2
"She's a cartoon Gary" "I know, I like that part too"
massive props to toph for reaching out to the crew involved with this pilot
Nahhhh why did this gem get hidden away this is probably the best TF2 SFM I have seen
Underfunded
Hey, thanks! High praise! But yeah, the studio went out of business and didn't pay to finish it!
@@TheHLGStudios damn that sucks
@@Euenise Yeah, it was a bummer. The audio has all been recorded by the actors -- but we have to dig it up to see how far we got into editing it. So, there are just basic costs associated with finishing the edit, adding sound design and then the animation alone. I think if we could find an animator who would donate their time to finishing it, and we thought it could get a big audience, we might consider trying to finish.
word?@@TheHLGStudios
Ok, that scout loadout could be made into a base for a subclass, like, idk, "the protagonist" functiouning:
"default loadout":
pistol or shortstop (to be functional in game)
pretty boys pocket pistol
Candy Cane or Stock.
Still, my respect for the creators, and if you excuse me im gonna make that scout loadout into a mvm robot.
I don’t know what any of this means but I LOVE it.
This is actually Historic! Thank you for showing this to us!
it's entirely our pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Really charming 2014 vibes at its best, thanks for releasing this!
Of course! Thanks for watching!
3:51 spys hat is missing -the only mistake in the video i saw
*Spy’s
I downloaded this video for archival purposes.
Just in case.
You are the Keeper of the Fortress now.
This is dope.
The animation is great and the comedy is really good.
Voice acting is also hilarious.
Hey thanks!

Kills heavies by headshoting them with the only weapon that deals no damage to the head.
Oh, My, God...
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!! I CAN'T FUCKEN BELIEVE IT!!! HOLY SHIIIT!!!
Please mind your language! It's bad for you! God bless you Jesus loves you ❤
@@mariagil2170 My bad 🙌
Im so happy to finally see this being released
We're so happy you guys are happy!
Thanks for taking the time to release this and give us a full interview, it was absolutely worth the wait!
Absolutely! As I said in the interview, you guys have been so friendly and kind with your emails, it really is our pleasure. And we had a blast making it - wish we could finish the rest.
@@TheHLGStudiosas i saw from another reply of yours, i think consulting the sfm community to help finish this project could be very kickass! i hope to hear more from this cancelled project in the future!
Man, that was great. I feel like I would've watched the entire series if Machinima did greenlight it.
Growing up, I watched a lot of shows from them, and I feel I would've absolutely loved Escape from teamfortress.
I'm curious, if you could contact a TF2 SFM maker (Like Winglet for example) and got the VA's back, do you think you could restart the production of this if we donated money?
I know they mentioned they recorded all the dialogue and are looking into digging out the audio/considering turning it into a crowdfunded project
I cannot believe it, its actually found!
BELIEVE IT!
This was so amazing! And even for being done 10 years ago, the animation and comedy hold up today!
Thank you so much for sharing this, I was so happy to see this released. I hope we get to see more!
So glad you enjoyed it and you're so welcome! We're starting the process of digging up some hard drives to see what exactly we have, audio-wise, of the project. And then, if any fans are animators and want to pitch in... we'd love that.
I can't believe Gary got the best class, Scout. He will always be the fastest.
the tf2 community needs to know this! most of them still don't know about it
How can we get it out to them? Help us!
@@TheHLGStudiosthe tf2 subreddit
this is truly me when i escape from team fortress 2
FINALLY
The TF2 Isekai we never knew we wanted!!!😆🥰
Absolutely love Gary's triple tap at 2:07. Wish we could've gotten more.
Honestly kinda curious how you guys would've handled a L4D series if you got more access to Valve's IPs - a few of Gary's line deliveries (like at 1:42 when piecing together that he's "Douchebag") sound like a dead ringer to Nick.
Honestly, Valve’s backing would’ve made this project so fun. Aside from the obvious support, playing in their IP would’ve been, yeah, a great time.
the better digital circus
This is really good. Big early-mid 2010s vibes on this one. Real damn shame this was never continued, I reckon it would've been pretty good.
“She’s a cartoon Gary”
“I know! That’s the part I like too!”
I have several questions, mostly on how the world works. Clearly, this is following more SFM rules where certain liberties are taken, such as RED Scout insta killing Gary, Alissa performing parkour and one-shotting Heavies, & the pistol acting like an actual pistol. This makes some wonder if they are in the actual TF2 game universe, or transported in the actual game.
If it's the former, this makes a lot of sense (may eliminate some tension/cause problems later if Medic can decimate three Heavies at once, but it's fine for now) & works the same as any SFM where more 'realism' & freedom is applied to movement, combat, & interactions.
If it's the latter, this creates a whole slew of problems, such as what other players see when a Femedic (BTW, not complaining, but confused about the inclusion of Fem & Bot models) kills them in one shot while jumping off the walls or a Soldier getting killed in three shots by the pistol.
I'm sure this would have been explained throughout the series & maybe made more sense if we had the full first episode. Overall, I'm very intrigued & interested in this idea & what it could have been.
I really love this animation! I want see more episodes
Ave Espelita is a brilliant animator. And thanks! We really have to figure out how to animate the rest.
I’m really happy this is finally seeing the light of day. Good animation and voice work.
Thank you!
I love how Gary just sounds like he’s totally Scout will Simon is nothing like Spy.
Then I remember Spies also hide a lot, hate getting shot, and are irritating.
thank you i can sleep again without thinking what happend to this series
Sleep please sleep
Well I didn't expect to see this, I am actually impressed with the animation and how clean it looks despite being 10 years old
The animator is now high up in Activision, so we got lucky!
2:55 dustbowl blu pov:
waiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit just reading the coments and responses and this thing could still come out!!!!
I really want to see how this does. just.... try not to delay too much more after 10 years....
Well, it would take a lot for it to come out! Namely, we’d need someone to do the animation for free…
@@TheHLGStudiosi heard the audio and script where finnished and only the animation needs work
Good luck tho
I wish this got made. I loved this series so far.
Simon & I would be killing it together back in the day
WOOOO NOW WE HAVE ACTUAL MATERIAL TO WORK OFF OF
This is amazing, I wish the series could've been completed
Us too!
i am SO EXCITED to see this
im 9 days late ik but STILL
ive been waiting for this pilot to get found for YEARS, ever since ive heard of it i wanted it found
i wish this series got more episodes (and funding) because this actually looks really cool and it has a really interesting story
i like how Simon's personality is more cautious and logical, to contrast Gary's more douchebag, badass hero-wannabe kind of personality!
Thank yooou! We’re still looking to see how many episodes we actually have recorded (but not animated) to see if there’s anything we can do.
@@TheHLGStudios Youre welcome!! Id absolutely love for the series to keep going
even if its not animated and its just some sort of "radio show" per say it would still be really cool!!
this is like watching sfm content as a kid
Yay!
HOLY SHIT
Yeah!!
I wish there was more
I saw too many fan videos to not expect twisted, warped faces. Feels weird without it.
i hope you guys one day able to work with fortress films to create more perfect movies in the future for the valve community and possibly even others!
We’d love to! Call us, Fortress.
if this becomes a series I'd watch it
This reminds me more of Tales From The Borderlands than anything else,it has that humor and the voice acting...MMH,classic
Just started playing the game this year and already this has been found. Hell yeah :P
Forget the Red Spy Soldier!
ESCAPE FROM TF2 DROPPED!! After 10 years of being lost "Hopefully it was worth the wait"
and by god it was
Hooray!
Can't wait for the next episode, if this does gain enough popularity for one
This is a long missing pilot
It's the only animated episode
From 10 years ago...
The initial cut in was so well done lol
Thank yooou!
i cant believe spy tf2 said fuck
He's always wanted to, we just gave him a voice.
Actually, this is great, i really would love to see the second part, but... i think that's not happening...
Also at 3:52 spy's hat disappears (he probably disguised that's why lol)
Remember watching a video about this. Never thought I was ever going to see this in full.
yoo thats nice it was found.. good work hlg and tophonator
Thanks!
I watched a video about tophonator talking about the lost tf2 media and he talked about the whole thing. What a time to be a TF2 fan rn. I really wanna see more of this!
I cant wait for an animator to pick this back up and help finish it, this is so good
HOLY
MOLY
My favorite part was when he said "fuck" and "sex"
Well this was certainly an interesting little gem to find out finally got found.
Really liked the shot of red team on the roof, especially with the two red bots, that was an unexpected treat to be sure (especially since they're entirely unused not just in pvp, but in the whole game), but the whole shot was just really well made.
Certainly far from perfect, but its a shame this never went anywhere, seems like it would've been fun at least. Even seeming to be tackling elements from a few of those recent Gmod/SFM ARG series years beforehand.
HOLY SHIT IT'S REAL CHAT
We seriously need a series like this
Well, someplace we have at least 7 (I genuinely don’t remember the final count.. maybe 10?) recorded episodes. We just need an animator who’d be willing to do it for the GLORY.
@@TheHLGStudios I know tons of animators who'd love to have a crack at finishing them
@@nubbydergLet us look to see what it is we have insofar as edited audio of the episodes and get back to you!
this is a dream come true
The voice acting!!!! Is seriously awesome as the animation!!
0:42 Holy shit I wheezed xd, this was hilarious
Happy this has been dug out and reuploaded, its great! Shame it wasn't finished
Yay! thank you!
2:05 oof
i wish there was more of this series
I wish this was continued even more.
Holy hell it actually happened!!
Miracles HAPPEN!
I love this. Kinda bummer we can't see the rest of it!
this was actually better than what i expected
After the long Waite we finally got it!!
it looks so good i wish there was more
Average Blu experience
Its amazing this was released! The comedy is amazing! 😂
Tf2 fans are eating good this year
YES ITS FUCKIN FOUND
There are some animation errors, but the main characters really charismatic that I don`t really care for those and jokes not bad, eather)
Totally would`ve watch this series, if it`s ever gonna be pick up again! Hope it will)
Holy shit lois
Idk if yall are still working on this but I would love to see the rest of the episodes animated!
They sadly aren’t as the project was cancelled with only the first one being done…
Its like we already had this situation of a tf2 series, just to be cancelled due to the project taking to long…
Its so good, its be interesting if you finish all serious
Mabye one day we'll get to see the entire series take form
I hope to see the other 7 episodes if possible
"Video game hell"
That doesn't look like 2Fort to me.
Sawmill is more like purgatory, you get sent there if you've not given your soul to a Payload map, as is proper.
whaaaaaaaat no way
YES WAY
i hope you guys bring this show back idk if its a 1 season thing but i would also like some actual live action parts for the show maybe try securing funding by gofundme or patiron
I was a bludledore who thought that this was lost to time forever...guess younger me was wrong :p
This is fantastic!
THIS IS SO SICK
THANK YOU!!
The animation is really good, considering this was initially nearly a decade ago
Yeah, Ave Espelita is amazing. He’s the lead animator at Ubisoft now so.. makes sense!
@@TheHLGStudios Yeah, I watched the interview and saw that he is now the Lead Animator in Ubisoft Philippines (whish is also where I live), man is insanely talented. Still, interested to seeing more content related to the series in the future.
Not bad.
Буду ждать этого проекта с нетерпением
WAITER WAITER MORE PLEASE (jokes aside this is actually amazing this is something that id actually watch and its so dumb that it got canceled)
We agree, it WAS dumb and we loved the work the actors did. It’s very funny.
How did Not know this was published a year ago?
Holy
Moleh
FLIPPING GOATED
this is neat
Worth the wait
Yay!
