I love how both Pizza Tower and Anton Blast have pretty much the same story of "Antagonist fucks with protagonist out of spite and the protagonist goes ballistic"
It's a good set-up, very versatile.
Antonblast has the option of playing the whole game as the side character that's just there for the thrill.
@@PunYT Oh my Noise wait so does Pizza Tower
Atagonist fucks with protagonist, antagonist finds out
There's definitely a difference in motivation for the protagonists, though. Peppino is fighting because his livelihood depends on it (and is scared as _s(taunt)_ the whole way through), but his fighting style technically has nothing to do with pizza-making. Anton is fighting _because he wants to_ (in theory he could just go buy more booze, and his job as a demoman was never in danger), and he's _using his job skills_ to do it. ...Annie and The Noise, on the other hand, are both doing it just for shits and giggles.
My nephew was lead art designer for this game. Actually so proud of him.
Legit tell them that they did an incredible job. The harsh angles and glorious chartreuse/maroon hues are an absolute treat!!!!
DEV RELATIVE IN COMMENTS
Back when we had my uncle works at Nintendo, we now have my nephew works at an indie.
Antonblast's artstyle is incredible! Super cartoony and so full of personality! The graphics are very GBA-esque, which I really love as well! Your nephew blasted it out of the park!
Reminds me of Earthworm Jim if its animated series had its own "New Batman Adventures" moment where they redid the art style.
Also, you must be ancient and yet you still hang around with the hanger-ons of good ol' Binty over here. Never quit your passions.
Red guy literally too angry to die. Green gal literally too crazy to care.
Enjoyers of the Garlic Platformer genre are eating good, we got pizza and we got our drinks
Garlic water is the drink of choice
Marry! Oh wait, this is the wrong channel...
fantastic decade for the Garlike genre
Don't forget that before the Pizza and Booze we had lots of gold and blackjack from those Shovel related fellas.
Shoutout to garlic, gotta be some of my favorite gaming genres fr 🙏
Pizza Tower is more Sonic and Wario like while Anton Blast is more like Crash Bandicoot and Wario mixed into one. With the smashable crates and Antons open smile. Even his new design is very Crash Bandicoot esc.
Now we need a platformer that is more like Rayman.
@@Cubeytheawesomethat’s just modern rayman
@@moosesues8887What modern Rayman?
Seems to be a bit of DKC in this one too, between the cannons, the background switching (I know this is also a Virtual Boy Wario Land thing), and the screaming pillars that smash you from the background.
@@thedoglovinggamer5825 Uhh... Origins? Legends?
43% of Anton’s body is composed of red 40
He's a living cancer cell
I'm glad I'm not the only one who immediately thought "Cow and Chicken".
Satan is like the ultimate combination of Robotnik from AOSTH, the Red Guy from Cow and Chicken, and the Devil from Cuphead
Really? I thought Satan had more Dr Ivo Robotnik energy.
HELL YEAH
CUT IT OUT COW IM TRYPA PLAY ANTONBLAST!!
@@Max-iq8hi And the petty motive that Gruntilda from Banjo Kazooie has
At some point I saw a comment that described the plot of this game as a combination of Beavis and Butthead and the Binding of Isaac and that description feels surprisingly accurate
The bosses being sins is a really nice touch, since satan is the main final boss
Its the snow white plot, I even think Anton could be a better snow white than Rachel Zegler
Well, the plot is basically if Snow White was written by Beavis and Butthead's writer.
To me it has a bit of Zim in it, too. I think it's the art direction? I'm not sure.
I was thinking more along the lines of "Banjo-Kazooie mixed with DKC"
"Greetings, Tipsy Totem from AntonBlast"
"Hello, Screaming Pillar from Donkey Kong Country Returns"
"aaAAAaaah!!"
"EURRRRRGH"
Agreed. I can totally see the DK inspiration. Especially in Cinnamon Springs.
Vinny you put a #1 next to that title RIGHT now.
Good news.
Big ups to the AntonBlast devs for not feeling like they had to put a parry in this thing
Stay true to being an angry, unsubtle red man
I mean, save for bare basics. Everything in a game is a design decision, good and bad are relative to the desired experience
@@RadikaRules Not exactly sure what "save for bare basics" is referring to, if I'm honest. Game design is hard, so I'm speaking from a sense of relief that these folks didn't feel pressured to drink from the same rain barrel as 100+ contemporaries. If a dev wants to induce a flow state, there are more ways than the obvious trend.
I don't even see why having a parry is such a detrimental or contentious design choice.
@@massgunner4152 Purely a subjective taste thing. Parrying as the default way of interacting with combat just doesn't do it for me, and seeing so many genres try to do it has limited what I end up playing.
@@Jumungous but almost no platformer has a parry and is kind of novelty that doesn't even get pushed.
this game's style is seriously unmatched. i prefer pizza tower's characters but in terms of spritework and poses and everything anton is mind-blowing
agree 100 percent. pizza tower has great animation but it doesn't take advantage of being pixel art as much, it's just regular art that happens to be pixelated. This game leans into the pixel art heavy though and the style squeezes every inch of detail possible through the low resolution
For some other 2D games with sick art style from the recent years and yet upcoming, I can recommend looking into:
Cookie Cutter, Blud, Decline's Drops, Magenta Horizon, Symphonia, Kraino Rebirth and The Eternal Life of Goldman.
Would want to mention Immortal: And the Death that Follows too, but that one isn't as visually impressive as these others.
@@orangy57That was a deliberate design choice, though. McPig said that Pizza Tower's art style stemmed from how tired he was of seeing retro style platformers with an 8-bit or 16-bit visual style. He figured Pizza Tower would stand out visually.
@@orangy57 what's ironic is that the process behind both antonblast and pizza tower's artstyles are the other way around
Antonblast does the Earthworm Jim process where Hand Drawn Hi-Res is Downscaled and then Cleaned Up
Pizza Tower on other hand is actually done of the fly
@@orangy57I wouldn't exactly say that considering this game breaks alot of pixel art rules.
I don't know what this genre of speed-based crusty fucking slime games is called, but I'm really glad we're getting more of them these days
WarioLand4likes, I guess?
Wariolikes
Garlic likes.....
Garlic Platformer
I heard someone call something like this an “indie toon”
11:44 literal blinking neon arrow signs pointing out which way to go, and Vin still goes in the exact opposite direction, gets lost for a solid minute, goes in a circle and then says "wait, this is where I started"
The dementia is setting in
i'm pleased to see that this game is every bit as manic as what the demo promised and then some. i also like how satan in this game is straight-up the red guy from cow and chicken; it's a very good fit for a game like this.
I love how the devil gives off both Chief Blue Meanie and the old Sonic the Hedgehog cartoon Robotnik vibes simultaneously.
For how angry Anton is, you gotta appreciate his brutal honesty.
anton's VA was a great choice because his delivery at 16:19 had me orbiting
its tony grayson, the games director, and composer, and head of summitsphere
It is fucking fantastic
@@pixeljacked8047 He's pretty much a Jack-of-all-Trades.
I love how much it makes sense that Tony is the peak of Anton voice-acting, he's been playing the character for a long time.
It's cool to see this game come fully into fruition and always added appreciation when the dev has a connection to vinesauce. Surreal to see Anton actually fully animated and talking.
I'm overjoyed to finally see these gorgeous grungy reds and greens in motion- it's bringing me back to Cuphead and Pizza Tower where you're shocked to hear "Wait, I can CONTROL this? This isn't an animation?"
I can't wait to rig my enemies full of dynamite and scream like a maniac, then settle down with some Anton!
For some other games with *awesome* 2D animation, can recommend Cookie Cutter, Symphonia, The Eternal Life of Goldman and especially Blud.
The fact that you change in the bathroom implies that the two of them are just shitting the entire time the other is going on the adventure.
Fun fact: According to some of the marketing for this game it is implied that Anton is Amy the Hedghogs father
Edit: Or Amy Rose whatever works for you
anton is also canonically divorced, so it lines up perfectly
"Amy The hedgehog" and not "Amy Rose" took me off guard for a few seconds lol
*Rose the Amyhog
And Toy Freddy is Vile’s father
if you don't believe me check out one of the trailers called "life with Anton"
Jesus, compared to the demo the first minute of gameplay looks significantly more polished. I'm getting this game right now.
Pizza Tower had Wario elements with some Sonic in it, but this game literally SCREAMS Wario Land 4.
It even uses the warp noises when you exit a level in Wario Land 4.
It also uses Wario’s voicelines for Anton but just pitch shifted.
@@crinklyonion1410 Reminds me of old versions of Pizza Tower also using Wario voice samples in the music.
@@crinklyonion1410 i dont think thats true? maybe in previous demos, but game release anton clearly seems fully voice acted (atleast to me)
I was here for this
people went crazy for Annie
What’s not to love about a maniacal gremlin?
Did you not?
i love the femcel goblin
The beginning is clearly an homage to the Red Guy from Cow and Chicken.
Charlie Adler is such a talented voice actor.
0:13 Darth Maul in a nutshell
my boy made this game - thanks for checking it out
Play as Annie because there is a special skin for her that has to do with a certain GRANDAD that we know…..
"Fleent Stones?
~oooooaaauuuuuhhh..."
Ah, Mr. 7 himself
WHERE?! What’s the name or the level it’s in?
@@appsmasher7932 it’s from Brulo’s shop and it’s called GRANNIE 7 for Annie
@@appsmasher7932it’s in Brulos shop and it’s called GRANNIE 7
Out of all the things this game took inspiration from I didn't expect the dialogue to remind me so much of Beavis and Butthead. Seriously, listen to Brulo's voice and then Principal McVicker's and tell me you don't hear the similarity.
edit: seems like Vinny noticed it too
"Yeah, dammit! God damn son of a bitch!" is literally a line Beavis says from exactly one of those scenes
Who up blasting they Anton????

Antonblast and Pizzatower are good complements for each other. Antonblast is less cartoony but it’s still good.
The soundtrack goes way to freaking hard, it's incredible. I wasn't expecting music as good as Pizza Tower.
Satan's not just Cow and Chicken's Red Guy, he's also equal parts Anung un Rama and AOSTH Robotnik.
7:50 funny enough i had to revert back to my wario land 4 mindset for this game cause i kept instinctively trying to play it like pizza tower.
Reject Pizza, embrace Land
Damn, these wario-likes seem to love replicating the 90s cartoon network style
It fits best for these games as they're often grungy, unhinged, where anything can happen
@@kntranced719 Guess i might jump into this trend when i start developing my wario-like
Probably developed by people who grew up in or around that era
Well, we need to let those keep coming
@@kntranced719 Grungehinged, if you will
I like how this game has a scream button
Calling it now: next OneyPlays will feature Zack and Sr.Pelo simply because of THAT button
It's like Rayman 1 where there was a button to grimace.
Not as good as the belch button in Shrek for Xbox.
This man has unparalleled amount of Yosemite Sam energy
This is like the Adult Swim version of Wario Land 4.
Erm, what the blast
Those cutscenes are a thing of pure toony beauty
Indie games often fall into “Earthboubdlike” or “Wariolike”.
That intro is incredible.
I think the funniest thing about pizza tower vs antonblast fans is both the devs are friends and both games are completely different.
Also the anton devs actually mock people for dissing pizza tower over this
Another one for the unhinged chat messages compilation:
33:48 for context.
34:03 the message.
Vinny said he's not making any more of those during his Silent Hill 4 playthrough because he feels like Twitch chat has collectively gotten intentionally worse so an unhinged comment will show up in a compilation.
@@AluminumFusion22 Well, a fan will take the mantle eventually.
@@BreadMakerCTM Oh yeah, fan edits inevitably exist. I like some of them. The DKC3 compilation of Vinny gradually losing his patience is one I especially enjoy.
33:20 I just realized that this part here is literally the same part on Half-Life Blast Pit level where you have those tentacles
My cousin twice removed worked on this game, thanks for playing it! :-) I'll let him know you enjoyed it.
This game is really speaks for itself.
a lot of Anton and lot blast
Shoutout to Gianni who voices Satan btw
Of course he's in this, he's like the internet age VA equivalent of Nolan North
51:10
I dunno Vinny, have you ever tried chiseling a statue?
When Anton said "It's Blastin' Time!" and blasted all over the place, I legit screamed with pure excitement
That joke fits so well even though it’s an old joke, but it fits so well
The spritework in this is IMMACULATE. I wonder if it could be run on a real GBA.
This game would certainly not run on a real GBA, but the sprite work is 100% something I'd see on a GBA
18:14 to be fair Anton occasionally sounds like Beavis during this conversation
I hear a bit of Beavis sometimes although I mostly hear Joel because of the cadence.
Excited to see Vinny play the pool level.
new drinking game:
take a drink every time Melpert says the P-word
The use of Crash Bandicoot sound effects is really throwing me.
I hope you get well soon, Vinny! Thanks for playing the best 2D platformer of 2024!
Having just beat the game myself, it's definitely worth the wait, and I honestly find it more fun than Pizza Tower, largely due to the controls feeling more satisfying and overall being easier to gain momentum by comparison. When it gets fast in Antonblast, it gets REALLY fast, and you especially feel that in the later levels (I dread if Vinny decides to continue the game and reaches the final level, iykyk)
Anton got blasted.
Its a shame the kickstarter didnt meet all its goals, it could of been even bigger
never in my many years did i think i would hear the polar bear charge sound from crash bash in an indie game. well done.
44:13 IS HE DOING THE FUCKING LIVESEY WALK?!
This game plays like Cartoon Network
In a category 5 Hurricane
59:46 I think that’s an underappreciated part of Vinny’s work. The unhinged funnies is great and all, but my favourite streams are the quieter ones where Vinny gets a bit more introspective.
Wario gets more love letters than me
Theres so much going on, this really is overstimulation the game, I love it
CaptainHaddockBlast
Ten thousand thundering typhoons
This is the greatest video game story every conceived. Games truly are art!
Peppino is scared Mario and Anton is angry Wario.
I love how any time The Actual Devil shows up in a video game Vinny immediately has trauma flashbacks to his Catholic upbringing
"Another Leno" sounds like a great album idea. All the songs could be about how Gray Leno came to be and what he does.
29:39 Polar smoke
We need to get vinny to play more of this
I got so much references in antonblast, like the laser blasting bells in Ring a ding, i think that references the gaster blaster from undertale
IT TOOK ME FOREVER TO REALIZE IT.
This game uses the same soundfont as LA MULANA for some of the music tracks
That was bothering me for over an hour.
Game looks sick btw
28:09 Boiler City is actually canonically in Florida
Imagine a crossover between Pizza Tower and this. Be the most chaotic thing ever
I immediately thought cow and chicken to as well.
57:47 was me, and I just hope Vinny knows I was joking and love all his voices and silliness ❤❤❤
So your telling me the devil is Gianni matagrano? Aka gabriel ultrakill and Sebastián solace? This game is peak already
Don't forget Duke Nukem :3
AMABAUT TO BLAAAAAST!!!
I'm blasting my Anton to this music
I like how the game uses cartoony-like sfx especially ed, edd and eddy sfx
I’m guessing it’s from a sound library but I swear the sound when you bump into a non accessible area in the hub is used in the first Jak & Daxter.
Fingers crossed Vinny will actually finish this one, though the lack of episode number has me concerned. Has he ever gone back to change a one-off to an episode in a series in the past?
I believe that does happen sometimes
yes, it happens sometimes. It recently happened with the Dragon Quest III remake
@@pablosalgado293 He does say at the end that he might continue the game once he's feeling better, so I'm feeling hopeful.
@@MKVProcrastinator Still find it crazy that he dropped both The Plucky Squire and Mario & Luigi: Brothership.
@@AluminumFusion22IIRC Vinny said during the stream that he only has enough attention span for one long RPG at a time before he needs to recharge.
33:30 that rocket booster and swim.... is that a half-life reference?
Pretty sure you find a revolver at the end of that fall above the pool after toasting the tentacle monster
55:36 Smart strategy, since no one can surprise you by getting Grey Leno’s voice actor to sing Red Vox songs. Although I suppose Jay would suffice if someone somehow got to him.
56:59 my favorite
Ots tome to BLAST through ANTONBLAST
the villain in this game is mike
who is up blasting their anton
Ngl, Pizza Tower already scratched my Wario-like itch and I never really had much of an itch for Wario-likes to begin with. I did play the demo on the Switch and it was admittedly too fast and disorienting for my elderly 30-year-old brain and he moved like Sonic if Sonic automatically accelerated to top speed from pressing the d-pad while also expecting precision platforming. The visuals and cutscenes are on point though and I hope it's a success.
Honestly I find Pizza Tower to be the faster game overall and putting much more emphasis on it with it's ranking system. Antonblast can be fast paced too but there's also just as much substance trying to methodically go throughout the level, absorbing the vibes and grabbing collectibles. Anton also controls really well when you're not constantly mashing the dash button so he can do precise platforming as well.
Totally
I love the visuals and style but Jesus my brain is overstimulated 😂 maybe it’s the combination of screen shake and fast scrolling? I guess because PT didn’t have such a frantic amount of screen effects and super fast scrolling (despite the fast gameplay, the screen didn’t seem to pan all over the place) either way I love it still, so hectic and over the top in the best way possible
@@dumbbirdwayne Well in case it's ever too much, Screen Shake can be lower or turned off completely and there's a photosensitivity option in accessibility, which I assume would reduce the amount of particle effects and such. And for the scrolling issue, just taking things slower until you know how route through the level more easily.
They're very different games even if they draw from the same wells. I'm will say I'm more a fan of PT because I like going fast and clearing things in sequence, but this game has it's own aggressive appeal.
I think I found my issue. The Switch demo still had the combo system on by default so it gave me the impression that you were meant to play through the game quickly. The game's mechanics and level design definitely seem like they encourage you to take your time, so it was probably for the best that it was made into a separate mode.
This game feels like a mixture of Cow and Chicken, Ren and Stimpy, and Ed, Edd, n’ Eddy with a small hint of Beavis and Butthead.
Gameplay is fluid. Music is chunky and bombastic. Art is slimey and spicy. Overall copacetic.
I have no mouth and I must design… (kinethetics?)
I see a lot of Crash Banicoot in this too
this game it's like sonic on edibles
Gotta blast!
💯I need this game
Hey Vinny, there’s a hollow knight Path of Pain-like secret in the lobby. Also, try finding a dude named “Paul” in every level ;)
