    The instrumentation paired heavily with the animation just made this feel like a celebration of life and relationships. In the ending where the music intensifies, it felt like others coming in, helping out, and continuing more friendships with those around despite what was lost. I felt that especially, but that was only with the visual storytelling you added. This is why I have been subscribed to you for well over a year, maybe two (time is weird and hard to keep track of, and I'm only 18).

    I hope Martin gets his spark back. It's so depressing seeing him and the MMX so close to completion, but become discouraged on the finale.

      @ryanmccampbell7 2 роки тому +14

      The last I remember Martin was still fully enthusiastic and ready to start from scratch on the third version of his masterpiece. I hope he still finishes the current MMX, though the selfish part of me would be fully content to have him keep working on it and perfecting it forever so I can always look forward to another WW. But he deserves to have his dream realized without compromise, and I think he'll get there eventually.

    I want to add my voice and say I absolutely loved this! I have followed Martin since the first Marble Machine and I love that you managed to blend all of the feelings that the roller coaster journey has brought!
    I really felt like that ending was almost a premonition of the MM3 project, Martin falling and realizing the MMX was doomed to fail, only to be helped by himself and his followers to begin again building an amazing machine to finally conquer the mountain!!
    Seriously, congratulations on a beautiful piece of art!

Maybe it helped him realize he needed to learn a bit more before he tackled the mountain, but this piece was pretty, and definitely shows the journey that we went on together wit Martin.

I have been a supporter and Patron of Matin for a long time and it still kind of makes my heart feel heavy how things have gone, especially at the part where he hits that boulder and falls. I really hope Martin takes the time he needs to recuperate and enjoys the journey, not just the destination

This encapsulated the hope and the wonder that he gave me with a simple concept that was hugely complicated in practice, but beautiful to experience. Thank you.
