    also as someone who very regularly fiddles with the stick and buttons on controllers, this percussion scratches all the adhd parts of my brain LOL

    • @Shadycicada
      @Shadycicada  19 днів тому +23

      This is actually how the idea came about! My brain sometimes just forces me to mash all the buttons on my controllers, even if it makes me lose. So I feel you. Glad you liked the song, dude!

      @@Shadycicada Dude if you love em keep a spare one around...just last month both the left analog stick and left cross buttons developed the weird DRIFT stuff Nintendo is sadly famous for now. Drifting both left at times and up too. Just a heads up man. The little pat on its head was cute though 😊🎸

  • @rykerthestriker
    @rykerthestriker 19 днів тому +46

    Love the controller cover of Megalovania at the end lol

    Long time fan, first time commenter here! This video is one of my favorite's I've seen of yours, and with the good vibes it gave me today, it gave me the inspiration to give you a comment to thanks for the sincerity and cheer you put in these videos, as well as to congratulate you on some of those recent songs I've heard you got commissioned for! I also saw you had a comment asking for extra challenge requests, and I think I have something in mind! Can you try to make a song using only a written prompt as inspiration? For a rough starting point, here's what I've thought of so far. "A starry night, wreathed in light. Fate is the bonds we make, red ribbons of destiny made of love. If all the notes in a song could tell a story, it would be of our glory. For one last time, I love you all."

    But this is so cool! I thought that this video would you be trying to make a song while using a controller to move and adjust everything, but this is genuinely so much cooler!! The song is such a vibe, and the controller sounds are like somebody scratching my eardrums. Weird way to describe it, I know, lol
    All in all, great song as always, Shady! You're an inspiration :D

    Parts of that melody, that (whats it called...?) arpeggiated squiggly-bit reminded me of Zelda OSTs. ...and of course I made the 'mistake' of not clicking of and being greeted by that song again :P You should ask for money for all that publicity you gave Toby. Clearly the only reason Undertale was so well loved.
