Hey! This is really neat! You can tell you put a lot of effort into it, and it really shows how much work developers need to put in for there to BE a game in the first place, let alone a good one. Cheers!

I'm very grateful for all your support and I hope you all enjoyed my video. Yea... not sure what happened to my voice over 😕. What do you think of my first time doing video editing? P.S. VIDEO EDITING SUCKS, THIS TOOK OVER A MONTH TO MAKE
Thank you for your concern, I have definitely learnt a lot from my first video and hopefully my next video won't take too long. (or the next video will just have a drop in quality 🙃)
This style of video editing is great, it's clean, but it's not generic, i especially love the little grid drawings that pops up every once in a while. On it's own, the video is great, but for a first video, this is a 12/3 star experience. I hope you get more attention in the future
I was expecting you were a much bigger creator, after seeing you only have 97 subs and this is your first video I am even more impressed that you are so dedicated. I bet you'll grow quite the audience if you continue.
Im pretty sure he is a game dev first than anything, not someone trying to grow on youtube or make it in the entertainment industry, thats why "he is so dedicated" on his first video, because he just, randomly, made a public video about a personal jokish project he decided to share, but it is already what he does normally. Perhaps he might had to look stuff about editing, or already knew about it making memes, student or job related work. He might continue doing this if he likes it, or maybe he might not, but i doubt he has done it "to grow an audience" It kinda hurts to think that the expected prospect of anyone sharing what they care about is to grow clout and be a "creator" in social media, catering to a pasive audience. That said nothing against you, you might not had meant to put it this way, but it does sounds like a "play for us jester" incitation
@@miser2570 I didn’t want to make it sound like that. I didn’t know he was a game dev. Also even if he is a game dev it is impressing that he dedicated himself to a jokish project.
Bro, this is really your first video!?!? This is such clean animation, edition, and good comentary! This doesn't look like a first video, looks like some really good content.
This just randomly popped up on my recommended, and I’m glad it did. This is *so* cool! It shows just how much work TC are having to put into silksong, and shows off your own awesome skills.
@@watermaaron I have a prediction. Your chanel will grow a sizeable amount and you will have a relatively nice community around it. If you se this, what other plans for videos do you have? Feels like it could be about developing and playing metroid vanias and also at least one other type of game. But I would equally love to be proven wrong.
Yea, I hope that this channel will grow to have a nice community. And I plan on making games from various genres aside from just Metrodvania. Right now I plan to make a part 2 for this video, and I want to make a video on the Mario Movie 😏 And the rest I'll reveal at a later date.
This is a brilliant, marvellous, fantastic first video. It's obvious how much effort u have put in this. The editing, script, etc. All amazing. Keep up the good work!
I can't believe THIS is your first video! I'm really impressed. This is on the same level as the videos of big creators Really excited to see more of your videos
This was really good! I'm sad to see no download yet, however, I believe that you should keep adding to the game, just to see how different things being added effects play styles.
❤ HEY! Good job 👏 😮 can’t wait for your huge successful game I’m sure with all this practice you’ll come out with something just as big. When you do (and if there’s a kickstarter) I’ll be right there supporting you!🎉
THANK YOU SO MUCH for your kind words ✨️ I am honestly and truly grateful for your support. I'll try my best to eventually make a game that you and everyone will enjoy. I hope you have a nice day 🤩
I have to say it is impressive just how much skill you have not only in coding but video editing too i believe you will in the future be one of the best UA-camrs out there wish you luck on your UA-cam journey now at least I can say I was subscribed to you before you be came famous :)
it is really good for a first video, I can see that you will be a big HK channel one day because you've got talents humor and creativity. Good luck about that :)
Super impressive video! I was also surprised to see it's the only one on your channel, I went to check to see if you put out some more awesome videos about gamedev because this one is so good! Woud love to see you share more of your skills, because obviously you know your stuff.
One thing that I like about Hollow Knight is that so many of them just randomly use attacks at times using the same attack 5 times in a row even more coordinated Bosses like Grimm and the Mantis Bosses are still kinda random and still use the same attacks in a row LOOKING AT YOU ZOTE
One of the reasons that makes Hollow Knight so good. I just despise random boss jumping, they are not telegraphed at all and you can't really predict where they're gonna land.
@@watermaaron If you made a game that had bosses with easy to predict attacks that would make it boring fast if you don't know whats gonna happen it has you more focused on the boss and what they do Like Zote he's just a pile of confusion and even though he can't be predicted at all he's still fun Sure its annoying when you dash into a boss and die but in my opinion it makes the game even harder and the harder it is the more exciting it is to finally win that fight sure bosses that don't just go crazy are still fun but sooner or later that boss is going to be nothing to you so I like the random attacks because its way more fun difficult and and harder to know what's going to happen No I don't respect your opinion and I won't try to change it be my guest change my mind if you want
Not that I'm disagreeing with what you're saying, but at some point if it's too unpredictably random and it becomes up to chance whether you get hit or not, then it is just unfair. Or I'm just bad at the game 😅
@@watermaaron I mentioned two of my favorite bosses Grimm and the Mantis Lords those two are way more coordinated but are still random at times its a good balance to have Zote levels of random to The Mantis Lords that can be Predicted fast but you still don't know what they're going to do I get what you mean about leaving it up to chance is too much but that's why I like Grimm Zote and Mantis Lords Zote is skill but mostly chance while Grimm is just reaction time and so is a lot of Bosses and yeah some Bosses in games would be a total fuck up if they just combo you with random bullshit And you can even do things to make it easier to predict attacks and stuff Like Grimm if you hit him during his bow at the beginning of the fight his first attack will be the puffer fish attack and he is so much easier if you avoid the right side of the arena and his fire bats attack can used to heal by going over the first one and dropping to heal
Those are fair rng, I was more referring to Lost Kin's random jumping (not the dive attack) but when Lost Kin suddenly jumps to a random spot on the room, sometimes where you are, sometimes few feet away from you, sometimes not at you. And it is just too sudden to react and predict where it'll land.
You can legally put up the download under the title of fangame, but given how close the supposed release is its probably not worth it. Also this is really, really fucking cool bro. Wish we would have seen this around a year ago, its honestly fun looking.
This looks amazing! I was really impressed by the graphics you made, and I liked their style, whichc seemed softer than actual Silksong. I hope your channel does well :D
The best thing about this is that it reminds me of playing hk for the first time. Now you've increased my insatiable hunger for silksong news. Thanks for that. /pos
most HK fans are going insane via mods, this man took it to another lvl and just recreated the game LMAOO tho in all seriousness cool af vid, cant wait to see more stuff from u
You are a real chad of hollow knight/silksong community! Subbed and waiting for your next project. I'd love to see you making a card game, Inscryption like. Also you dragged me back to unity, thanks boss
As of now it's not available for download due to legal reasons. However I'm doing some research to see if I can release it. Yeah, I also couldn't wait Silksong, that's why I made my own 😈
This is amazing. Would be cool if you could add more places with different enemies, and then when its bigger you could publish the game. To see that in a store would be so cool!
I’m new to learning Java and it’s cool to see some code that I don’t really understand but I like understand the basics idk just cool to see! And also inspiring
Moral of the story. We should all make our own silksong to realize just how much work TC is putting into the real version.
As someone on the internet said "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad (possibly)"
@@watermaaron but unfortunately a game that is too delayed might lose its hype. And die before it even began

Hi Blue and yeah this was really impressively done
Thanks very much. Yea, it's not easy to be a game developer, I could only make this in 2 weeks (plus 1 day) because I already had 2 years of practice.
This is a really good first video. Keep it up bro
The effort is genuinely impressive
Imagine Team Cherry saw this video and decided to add your Demise boss in the game, one way or another lol
That would be amazing.
If TC don't put Demise in Silksong I'll learn how to code and do it myself
@@watermaaron i sincerely hope they do as I thought they would too
Why do you think the game got delayed? Demise secret boss incoming ;x
The possibility is rising 😆

What do you think of my first time doing video editing?
P.S. VIDEO EDITING SUCKS, THIS TOOK OVER A MONTH TO MAKE

Thank you for your concern, I have definitely learnt a lot from my first video and hopefully my next video won't take too long.

Big agree, video editting sucks and your commitment is beyond commendable
This style of video editing is great, it's clean, but it's not generic, i especially love the little grid drawings that pops up every once in a while. On it's own, the video is great, but for a first video, this is a 12/3 star experience. I hope you get more attention in the future

It’s crazy to think how fast Hornet will be able to move
Yeah, I'm sure in the actual game you'll be able to perform some sort of combos.
give this guy an award for to calming down the comunitys hunger for silksong content.

Bro, this is really your first video!?!? This is such clean animation, edition, and good comentary! This doesn't look like a first video, looks like some really good content.
Honestly, I really loved the art and design of the boss. I could easily see a boss that looks like that in Silksong.
Cheers, I really appreciate your feedback.
So awesome! I wish you were able to release this, but totally understand that you can't.
All the music and sound effects are not mine, but all the scuffed art is mine. However, if I were to remove the music could I release it?
@@wax3825 YEAH THAT WOULD BE GREAT OMG
@@watermaaron I’m pretty sure you can release it as long as your not trying to make a direct profit off it.
This just randomly popped up on my recommended, and I’m glad it did. This is *so* cool! It shows just how much work TC are having to put into silksong, and shows off your own awesome skills.
Yeah. Given what I manage to scrape in 2 weeks. I can only imagine just how massive Silksong will be in 4 years of development.
@@watermaaron I can’t wait for an official release date!
I appreciate how the boss telegraphs it's attacks clearly. It feels like a believable Silksong boss!
Please make a part 2. It is really cool to se someone replicating parts of silksong. Your talk in the end of the video was really true.
I am considering making a part 2, which will feature tools and crests (my theory in what it does crests does at least, NOT enough footages).
@@watermaaron I really love to se your thoughts and implementation. Subscribed, and liked. Will be excited for it. And have a great day.
Thanks, I very much appreciate the support 🤩
@@watermaaron I have a prediction.
Your chanel will grow a sizeable amount and you will have a relatively nice community around it.
If you se this, what other plans for videos do you have?
Feels like it could be about developing and playing metroid vanias and also at least one other type of game. But I would equally love to be proven wrong.
Yea, I hope that this channel will grow to have a nice community.
And I plan on making games from various genres aside from just Metrodvania. Right now I plan to make a part 2 for this video, and I want to make a video on the Mario Movie 😏
And the rest I'll reveal at a later date.
0:01 A legend was born

Same here I wanted to make this video years ago, but every time I thought Silksong would released by the time i made it.

Very impressive and good video as well.

Wow this is so good! i cant believe this is your first video. Very underrated.
This looks really good! Love the boss! Maybe instead of the scythes return Ing to the boss after You hit them, they would hurt him?
Thanks, i appreciate the support! And that would've been a cool idea.
That is awesome.
I would love to see a sequel to this video, where you could add another boss and maybe better graphics. Amazing video hope you make more.
