      Holy cow, it's Genow??? You saw this?! Wow! I'm so happy that you enjoyed it! Bug Fables has some of the most incredible character writing and storytelling out of any game I've played; I hope that you and everyone else who worked on it know that you've made something really, really incredible that has inspired a lot of people to tell their own stories and make their own worlds. It's been a huge influence on how I view characters and story and is genuinely one of my favorite pieces of media of all time.
      I'm truly at a loss for words. When I posted this, it never even crossed my mind that the people who made the game would come across it! I'm looking forward to everything you and Moonsprout Games have in store for the future--thank you so much for the kind words and thank you again for enjoying the little animation!

    Playing Bug Fables pratically blind and reaching the end of Leif's Request was one of the most impactful experiences I had with fictional stories in recent memory.
    This video really captures the heartbreaking emotions of it in more detail than the game was able to. I especially got emotional when you represented Vi's Request, showing Leif being sad that he didn't get a heartwarming reunion with his family like Vi had.

    • @hyliaphora-cecropia
      @hyliaphora-cecropia  6 місяців тому +14

      @guthou2010 Thank you so much! Everything that I love about the storytelling of Bug Fables is perfectly represented by Leif’s Request. It left a big impact on me too, absolutely a highlight of the game!
      I specifically decided to include VI’s request here due to how I interpreted Leif’s actions in Chapter 3, where he’s super pushy to Vi about making up with her sister. I can’t remember the exact quote off the top of my head, but he says something about how “something could happen, and you’ll never get the chance to say sorry”. That and the “we want to apologize to Muse” line at the end of Leif’s Request lead me to believe that he and Muse weren’t on the best of terms when he died, which has led to deep regret.

    ahh this is so good! theres not much fanworks exploring leif's past and how it may have affected the current leif, but god this is SO well-made and this concept was such a cool dive on his character! love how muse's eyes were always covered; like how leif remembers her, but couldn't quite get it right. his desperation to be back with her and apologize but couldn't anymore because it's been so long is HEARTBREAKING and was depicted so well here! also, Omg, the cordyceps taking leif's hands in "your hands in mine" is so clever. overall, lovely work! always love to see bug fables animations, and congrats on the dev notice aswell! very deserved; its compositions and scenes were interesting to watch :D

    this is absolutely incredible. easily the most dynamic posing and composition i've ever seen in a bug fables animation, so much love was clearly poured into every frame. i always wondered how you could portray leif's request as a standalone story to someone who hasn't played the game since it's something a lot of people could reasonate with, and i think this video is the clear answer.
    i posted this in the bug fables discord, hoping this gets lots of reach soon enough!

I definitely put a lot of love into it, and it’s great to hear feedback about the posing and composition since those are skills I’ve been trying to improve on in my art.

      Dude I LOVE that idea, that’s so cool!!! Leif (the cordyceps)’s relationship with Leif (the moth) and his memories are super neat to think about. We need more animations that discuss that relationship, since the idea that Leif(shroom) basically stole the identity, personality, and memories from the corpse of poor explorer Leif(moth) is overlooked in a lot of fanworks. And even though Leif(shroom) over the course of the game reaches the conclusion that Leif(moth) would have wanted him to find closure, expressing what Leif(moth) actually wanted and how he’d feel about Leif(shroom) would be super neat through that song. You can do it!
