(This is a very, VERY long post but the goal of it is to bring some perspective and help to anyone, even if it is one person) This movie and soundtrack always made me feel some type of way. I've had a love for video games ever since I was a kid and always thought about making games. I didn't know much 5 years ago either. Few years before that, I was graduating high school but nearly failed senior year. Tried community college because I didn't have the GPA to get into a university. The major was Computer Science (2 year degree). I knew it was unrealistic at the time because I didn't believe in myself and I was also terrible at math and didn't even know much about programming either. I remember crying in my car while in the college parking lot holding a piece of paper with an 'F' on it. I'm not sure exactly which class but I definitely failed it. I vividly remember this memory because I had a nosebleed and bled all over the paper. To add to the fuel to the flames of me flunking out, many of my friends were already finishing their 4 year degrees when I barely had a full year of school under my belt. A few months later I got a job as a part-time IT intern (making decent money, but by no means was it an income I could live off of. Learned some skills but was let go a couple years after that. Got my first full-time job as a help desk agent some months later. Less money but more hours. Worked there for a year or so and absolutely hated it. One day I was on break sitting at my desk and saw a Reddit post from some dude that wanted to share all of his knowledge of becoming a successful indie developer. The post inspired me in such a way that I never felt. He was just a normal dude. I had spent some effort before a year or so ago trying to learn to program games but always started and gave up. However, this time was different. It almost flipped a switch and that same weekend I spent a ton of time into learning how to develop games. The entire year I dedicated almost all of my free time learning and programming a game. I would get up three hours before my actual job and start programming. When I got home from work I would program until it was time to go to bed. I released a small mobile game and was earning a few dollars a day. For some reason, the fact that I was earning so little a day was actually reaffirming my belief that 'anyone can do it' was true. You CAN make money doing something that you love. Fast forward today (there was more to this story but too much to post), I made much more money than I thought I would from the game (not enough to quit my job - which I wasn't expecting in the first place). A half year later, I made another mobile game in half the time compared to my previous one, but it totally flopped. It only made a fraction of what the first one made. Even though it was somewhat depressing, I know what I did wrong and learned from it. I still don't have a degree but I don't plan on it. The games helped me land multiple programming jobs in web development. I make more than money than I ever thought I would. Even though it is not with programming games, my current job is pretty amazing. Looking back at it, programming the first game was the hardest year of my life. The money was an extra bonus but the knowledge I gained was absolutely invaluable. Reading that Reddit post and programming the game shaped me into who I am today. It's been 3 or 4 years since I worked on a game but I am in a much better place mentally that I think I am ready to start again. I may not make enough money to ever quit my job, but I am at peace with that. To summarize, there are several things that I want to tell anyone who is reading this and find themselves in a similar situation: 1. The best advice for how to begin learning to make games - START. Yes, you will fail. Yes, it will be terrible code. If you don't know how to do something, use google/stack overflow, forums for whatever your programming in. You may restart your whole project and redo almost everything. And sometimes that's okay. But you're learning and it will help prevent you from making similar mistakes. 2. You don't necessarily need a degree to do what you want to do. A degree requires time, money and a ton of effort but getting a programming job with a degree in your hand is much easier without one. A lack of college education does not mean you are less intelligent than other people. Don't doubt yourself (that should probably be its own point). 3. Never give up. I had countless setbacks and even scrapped all of my code. There were so many times where I wanted to give up, but I never did. Just because you don't know how to do something, doesn't mean you can't figure out how to do it. 4. "Maybe You'll Get Some, Maybe You Won't". You may or may not make money from programming games. My first game made a good amount but the second one didn't. And that's okay. It can be disheartening but don't let it destroy you. Learn from it. Do better. 5. This ties into #4. When it no longer becomes fun, or you stop learning, then it isn't worth any amount of money you're getting. It's okay to not make a living on something you love to do. Pursuing that dream can sometimes cause you to hate it. It can destroy you if you let it. Sometimes making money with something that you LIKE to do can be better for your mental health. If that is the case, do what you love as a hobby. Your hobbies will be fun 99% of the time. And if you make money from a hobby, that's awesome. 6. This gets said countless times but it is so true: the journey is much more important than the destination. Releasing my first game was such a bittersweet moment. It's very hard to fully explain in words. I was so excited and glad that I finally released my first game - it was the single point that all of my hard work led up to. So why should I have felt sad, too? I frequently go back to the memory I had programming the game. It was so exciting finishing major parts and seeing my results on the screen. I've never built a house by hand but I imagine the process is very similar. A culmination of ones effort brought to a single point. It was a very weird feeling that I did not expect but it had a very positive impact on me. 7. This one is the most important one: take all of the previous lessons and output them into a single point. Pass your experience and lessons you have learned to someone else. I can't stress that enough. If it were not for that single random Reddit post I saw while at my miserable job, I would have never started developing a game. It can not only change, but SAVE someone's life. That's what it did for me. Hope this has helped someone.
You probably dont give a shit but if you're bored like me during the covid times then you can watch pretty much all of the new movies on Instaflixxer. Been binge watching with my brother recently xD
Programming is a goddamn art. This post really reveals the struggle a lot of developers have when making things. Coding is the best thing that has happened to me. It is sometimes hard, but, that joy of finishing a project you started just feels incredible, and other people playing it makes you feel emotions I have never felt in any other thing I've done. I haven't won a single dime in making games, I give them for free. I just do them because the joy it gives me to make games and apps is incomprehensible. It is a struggle. Yes, your code will probably be faulty and bad at first, but that is part of the process. And I feel like a lot of people and companies miss the most important part of making a game, they only make it for money and status, but not for the sake of making games. What I feel indie games portray is yourself, its soo personal. And yes, selling my games for money would be a great idea, and I maybe will in the upcoming game im releasing, but I don't make games for people, I make them for myself. The computer programs I build are literally me, but in a machine. It's such an incredible thing to experience, your story really is motivational and I hope someone gets inspired to start making games because of your comment. Everyone should learn to code, it's such an important thing that few people know. And I've had a lot of breakdowns in the process of making games. But I don't give up, I sometimes really want to, but I won't. Don't give up, its the most important thing while making a game. And a good advice is to actually make the project you want to do, not just think about it. And if you are very occupied with work or school, just do it, everyday I have school and a lot of work, and that does stress me a lot to the point of just loosing motivation, but I remember why I started making games, and I just get my motivation back instantly. You have to be determined. And don't think you are too young or too old to start writing code, I started at 12, gave up, and at 13 I started back again, and this time, I didn't give up. Don't think you can't code because you aren't smart, its just logic, I am very bad at maths, and yet, I still make games, of course, with a bit more struggle, but It's just logic. Don't ever give up. :D
Omg I thought I was the only one like that! I've seen it 4 times and my wife can't see it anymore ahah. So inspiring to see people suffering (it's a joke). Same, glad to see it when I'm losing motivation :)
This is what I was most excited for in sixth grade. I had no friends and found media like this as a way of protection. I'm about to graduate highschool and I am no longer the shut in I once was. I love my friends. I Absolutely love them and I want them in my life forever. I wish I could stay at this moment in time or the rest of my life. Video games over the years have become more of a crutch to me than a genuine support tool to get me through my depressive states. In ninth grade I was on the verge of suicide because I simply didn't enjoy life and didn't understand why. Every day after school I would confine myself to my room and sit in the dark playing video games for hour. It wasn't healthy. Taking a step back from video games and being more social with family and the few friends I had saved my life. I still enjoy video games now for sure. It's probably my biggest hobby. But there's a line between enjoyment and addiction. I enjoyed playing Super Mario Odyssey for an hour daily over the summer, but I have not enjoyed sinking 20 hours into Borderlands in the past week, but I just find I have nothing better to do. I try to moderate it by hanging out with friends or just going out anywhere, but often the addiction is the easiest thing to succumb to. My gaming now mostly consists of playing Rocket League with my brother every weekend, which I am more than fine with (we're only low plat btw not that great). Having that social interaction while playing makes it loads more enjoyable. Indie Game the Movie brings me back to a time where I wasn't susceptible to the negative emotions that I now associate with playing video games without moderation. This media is no longer a release, but a substance I have to take in moderation. I didn't really talk about the movie because it doesn't really matter. It's the hardships and tribulations that we face along the way that matter, and each developer in this films deals with these in their own way. Negative emotions are a part of life and it's up to us to control them and alter our routine to turn them positive.
+Francisco Fernandes finally i can request game idea please make a story about kid which one is in coma and we are in his dream. in his dream he have got a friend, with that friend you walking into the abandoned houses and see paronarmal activites
That's actually very similar to a game I made a year ago, play it till the end to see what I mean :) play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.sv.leapboy
Seen the movie plenty of times, and listen to the music all the time. It's pretty much one of the biggest reasons I'm still developing. After 10 ish years of programming, I'm finally close to releasing two of my games. Sidescroller adventure and an online trading card game. I wouldn't be where I am today without this movie.
My English class watched this movie (along with 3 other documentaries) during one of our English units. That's what KGSC's Year 11 English students get with our awesome English head of department around. Out of the four documentaries, I ended up referring to this one for my essay...because it related to my aspirations to be in the video game industry.
Its been doing okay, been super busy lately unfortunately... But thanks for asking dude I appreciate it. Don't give up, because I think coding shows people how you can't get it down immediately, and you need to practice practice practice for anyone to be good in it. So once we achieve it... We can practically be very bright people of the future!
Charles Martineau I think the true genius of the project is the one that implemented Phil's ideas into a game, the Trixel Engine writer, and the custom tilemap designer program, these were not built by Phil Fish, but built out of necessity for turning his ideas to life. It takes a real genius to put great ideas to the test.
Charles Martineau They hate Fish 'cuz the time he took, people don't understand that masterpieces take time, can't wait. If it was after development, people talked about how much of a jerk he was for reslehing Fez. He was basically saying 'Fuck you!' to the people who hated him.
Mark Laaouri I saw the panel, besides him still being a dick. He actually only really did the pixel art for the game (which is beautiful.) I think his partner doesn't get enough credit (the programmer)
This is one of the most inspirational films for game developers and indie's even after what happened to Phil Fish with him canceling fez 2. Truly a great movie 10/10 and if you even THINK of making a indie game PLEASE watch this movie!
+milo goodfellow Its probably my favourite movie of all time. It motivated me to become an independent game developer. I wish Phil came back to making games, the industry needs him
+milo goodfellow Every time I feel down and need some motivation to continue working on how to make games I watch that movie... and bam! back to work :D
Man. This movie really opened my eyes to the Indie world. I had no idea what it was like, and how hard it was to be an indie developer. I recommend this movie to everyone.
Ever since the movie came out, I've been into game development. It opened my eyes to what I'm really supposed to do. I'm lucky to have two really close friends that are very capable of making games too. I'm doing all the art (been doing art stuff for a long time). I'm excited to be working on something I care about!
Really enjoyed the soundtrack of this movie. Very inspiring and motivating even though I'm not a hardcore gamer or anything. Haha I've watched this movie multiple times. :)
Thanks for this I have been waiting for a HD version of the soundtrack for years. Also thank you so much to Jim Guthrie for such beautiful music. I just started learning game dev (after being inspired by the movie) and I swear I am going to listen to this everytime I write code
i think that one of the many importants point to be a programmer/developer not just a game developer. Is to be a good mathematician. just one of them......
Well, to be a "good programmer" I think we must have more than mathematics skill. We need a whole lot of skills : math, English, observation, comprehension, retro-engineering, etc... programming is a science :)
He said that this soundtrack inspired him to make a game with the Unity engine, the engine that Slender was made with. Basically, they're going to finish their university course then make games, then apologised for their English.
"Oh, it's a platformer, 2d is it? Hmm, the short answer: No, we can't publish your game, although if you have any infinite runners for mobile, we will be happy to do so!"
You can go pick this up over at humblebundle. com along with a bunch of other great soundtracks from Jim Guthrie for as little as $.01 if you choose. If you pay more than the average though, you get a sick game and this movie as well.
i saw this movie and i was like wow ....and the i just download slenderman and see this program that the name is unity ... i know this is not has to be the movie but then i think this movie and i just download the unity program and i was looking for the movie again and see the movie and i think i going to make video game because i know code .... i know i was looking for sound track because is inspired me and now i going to finish my uni and create videogame sorry is my english is bad ;)
I know i've heard the first music in an ios game. But I don't remember which. And Google's not very helpful.. And it's aggravating! That aside, the music is incredible...the whole lot of them
rodrigo gonzalez You can buy it on a ton of platforms. I bought it on my iPhone of $10, and I looked it up and found out you can buy a physical and/or record version of this on his profile for some music site which I forgot the name of.
Come on game developers, kick AAA's asses and make your own game to show your power to the world ;) !!
One big hug to everyone!
Yea Bro (y)
No need to kick AAA's assess. let's just have fun doing what we love doing and share our knowledge to everyone.
love, anxiety, depression

yes, but the name of the reddit post?
This movie is very inspiring. I've seen it 5 times now and i see it everytime whenever i lose interest towards my goal of videogame dev.
ya agreed
Omg I thought I was the only one like that! I've seen it 4 times and my wife can't see it anymore ahah. So inspiring to see people suffering (it's a joke). Same, glad to see it when I'm losing motivation :)
This movie inspired me to get into indie games. I failed miserably. But I still love the movie.
This is what I was most excited for in sixth grade. I had no friends and found media like this as a way of protection.
I'm about to graduate highschool and I am no longer the shut in I once was. I love my friends. I Absolutely love them and I want them in my life forever. I wish I could stay at this moment in time or the rest of my life.
Video games over the years have become more of a crutch to me than a genuine support tool to get me through my depressive states.

I hope to be a game designer when I grow up.
And I will always strive to that goal.
+Andrew Fender Good inspiration! Thank you for sharing it... Good work for you in your project
You better be a designer by now boy!
I watched this in 2012 and I am now a full time Game soundtrack writer / game dev !
Inspiring music to listen while programming a video game. :)
+Francisco Fernandes finally i can request game idea
please make a story about kid which one is in coma and we are in his dream. in his dream he have got a friend, with that friend you walking into the abandoned houses and see paronarmal activites
+Francisco Fernandes And drawing sprites as well.
+Francisco Fernandes Don't forget the music too.
That's actually very similar to a game I made a year ago, play it till the end to see what I mean :)
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.sv.leapboy
nice game
Seen the movie plenty of times, and listen to the music all the time. It's pretty much one of the biggest reasons I'm still developing. After 10 ish years of programming, I'm finally close to releasing two of my games. Sidescroller adventure and an online trading card game.
I wouldn't be where I am today without this movie.
Exception Games same
My English class watched this movie (along with 3 other documentaries) during one of our English units. That's what KGSC's Year 11 English students get with our awesome English head of department around.
Out of the four documentaries, I ended up referring to this one for my essay...because it related to my aspirations to be in the video game industry.
This movie inspired me to pick up programming after my failed attempt of learning it... and I m planning to write my own game too!
Same here man, I'm so glad I found inspiration again to continue programming no matter how many times I fail
hey, was wondering how your programming was going. i began learning in uni but gave up.... i want to learn it again too
Its been doing okay, been super busy lately unfortunately... But thanks for asking dude I appreciate it. Don't give up, because I think coding shows people how you can't get it down immediately, and you need to practice practice practice for anyone to be good in it. So once we achieve it... We can practically be very bright people of the future!
Good luck !
You got this! Never give up hope on your dreams. You can make them come true.
Ever since I've seen this movie and listened to the soundtrack, it's changed the way I perceive movies, music and videogames.
Probably even the world.
I don't understand why some have some hate towards Fish ... the guy is a genius. There is always some form of madness in creative work.
Charles Martineau I think the true genius of the project is the one that implemented Phil's ideas into a game, the Trixel Engine writer, and the custom tilemap designer program, these were not built by Phil Fish, but built out of necessity for turning his ideas to life. It takes a real genius to put great ideas to the test.

So true. Don't judge an artist by anything other than his art. Plain and simple.
+The SpokenBanana wrong, it was Fish's toxic and rude attitude, which is why people hated him.
Mark Laaouri I saw the panel, besides him still being a dick. He actually only really did the pixel art for the game (which is beautiful.)
I think his partner doesn't get enough credit (the programmer)
This is one of the most inspirational films for game developers and indie's even after what happened to Phil Fish with him canceling fez 2. Truly a great movie 10/10 and if you even THINK of making a indie game PLEASE watch this movie!
+milo goodfellow actually just watch this movie its great
+milo goodfellow Its probably my favourite movie of all time. It motivated me to become an independent game developer. I wish Phil came back to making games, the industry needs him
ya i agree it was so good i ordered the special edition
+milo goodfellow Every time I feel down and need some motivation to continue working on how to make games I watch that movie... and bam! back to work :D
truth but for me all i have to do is watch the special edition trailer
the last we spoke always reminds me of some kind of a high school movie opening
Man. This movie really opened my eyes to the Indie world. I had no idea what it was like, and how hard it was to be an indie developer. I recommend this movie to everyone.
This movie sparked my interest in game design into a passion. I owe it all. Thank you.
i watched this movie like 6 times, and i still get inspired every time i watch it again.
i cannot believe they are making another one :3
Ever since the movie came out, I've been into game development. It opened my eyes to what I'm really supposed to do. I'm lucky to have two really close friends that are very capable of making games too. I'm doing all the art (been doing art stuff for a long time).
I'm excited to be working on something I care about!
I literally cried
.
Im currently working on a fighting game, even though im just learning programming, i want to be a game director some day, its basically my dream.
Hope you will achieve it buddy
mad good movie mad good soundtrack
When I watched the movie, I didn't notice how awesome was the soundtrack. Now I did.
one of the best movies I've seen =D
For anybody looking for these on Spotify, there's a full playlist devoted to it. Also, they are all by Jim Guthrie.
Welcome.
Programming an indiegame now... while listening to this :3 Go devs!
Really enjoyed the soundtrack of this movie. Very inspiring and motivating even though I'm not a hardcore gamer or anything. Haha I've watched this movie multiple times. :)
i liked the movie but don't forget the fact that the soundtrack is just AMAZING.
10/10 -IGN
Thanks for this I have been waiting for a HD version of the soundtrack for years. Also thank you so much to Jim Guthrie for such beautiful music. I just started learning game dev (after being inspired by the movie) and I swear I am going to listen to this everytime I write code
i think that one of the many importants point to be a programmer/developer not just a game developer. Is to be a good mathematician. just one of them......
Loved watching this film :)
Much love to all the devs. Keep going! Amazing movie by the way
AMO ESTE SOUNDTRACK ¡¡¡ el mejor documental que pueden ver la parte 2 tambien es un lujo de pelicula
the maelstorm is still one of my faves
My headphones are broken, and this sounds like perfection even with my left ear only.
Well, to be a "good programmer" I think we must have more than mathematics skill. We need a whole lot of skills : math, English, observation, comprehension, retro-engineering, etc... programming is a science :)
Truly remarkable!!
Awesome movie... "A Glow You Know" is my favorite part of the soundtrack.
Amazing music for an amazing film, has inspired me to make my own
Thank you, I love this movie and soundtrack!
This movie...is awesome.
thanks man, this is rad!
i didnt make it through the first one without feeling emotionaly inspired
Thanks man for the soundtrack =)!
He said that this soundtrack inspired him to make a game with the Unity engine, the engine that Slender was made with.
Basically, they're going to finish their university course then make games, then apologised for their English.
00:00 so good
Thanks for posting..
Does anyone know what style of music the beginning of this one is?:
10:54 - 14:36 - Proof Of Something
mum ripoff
25:53 I really like this part.
Strange, interesting channel.
It's pretty neat.
Thank you.
I love this Movie
Cheers!, Good luck on that game you are making, i saw it on your cahnnel. it looks like terraria. did you do the art?
absolutely amaizing
"Oh, it's a platformer, 2d is it? Hmm, the short answer: No, we can't publish your game, although if you have any infinite runners for mobile, we will be happy to do so!"
Remember developers! . If your game doesn't came successful; always you can put birds in it and throw them with slingshots.
It's really awesome!!!
Thanks...
Exactly.
Endmund said it when he was getting interviewed by Desighn3 -->
it's on the side
and i think it is now on their web site?
Young Lungs is my favorite
You can go pick this up over at humblebundle. com along with a bunch of other great soundtracks from Jim Guthrie for as little as $.01 if you choose. If you pay more than the average though, you get a sick game and this movie as well.
i walk around with this on my headphones and pretend i'm in my own movie.
10:54 my favourite :D
i hope to make a great game someday.
i saw this movie and i was like wow ....and the i just download slenderman and see this program that the name is unity ... i know this is not has to be the movie but then i think this movie and i just download the unity program and i was looking for the movie again and see the movie and i think i going to make video game because i know code .... i know i was looking for sound track because is inspired me and now i going to finish my uni and create videogame sorry is my english is bad ;)
38:43 is my fave
Good movie!! =)
Name of the composer would be good to put in the ''About'' tab.
The compose I think is Jim Guthrie.
mnm606 yeah, i know. :) thanks though
Its actually on the video already.
Anisoft Studios I know, but you might want to copy paste it.
+ He deserves the credit to be either in the title or the about tab.
excelente saludos desde chile !
Now what do you see in this orange?
I know i've heard the first music in an ios game. But I don't remember which. And Google's not very helpful.. And it's aggravating!
That aside, the music is incredible...the whole lot of them
+Rohan Shrestha 'Think' is the game I believe.
Green Supes Yes!! That's the one! Thanks a lot.
***** You're welcome
aaaand favorited. ;D
How is music like this made, and what can I download to do the same?
where is the movie men its damn a soundtrack only i want to see the movie
you can watch it on www.putlocker.is
And remember that green isn't a creative color
Starring:
The team behind Isaac
The Guy from Braid
And the spawn of satan
Cousins with one by c418
sound track is good, except that pfukin stupid number of advertisements.
Didn't we agree to never be creative again?
Yo, who made your avatar?
c418 one brought me here.
i use my hair to express myself...
where can I download
you buy it.
zantman1000 Download ≠ Illegal. Most people these days buy their music online, that would be a download, too.
rodrigo gonzalez You can buy it on a ton of platforms. I bought it on my iPhone of $10, and I looked it up and found out you can buy a physical and/or record version of this on his profile for some music site which I forgot the name of.
i am just learning to make android apps
But do you actually make games like i do?
0:00:49 OMG T.T
50:27
I did not understand a single thing you just said.
Be creative.
