History of MEGALOVANIA: Toby Fox’s Musical Journey
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 лип 2024
- In 2008, a young Toby "Radiation" Fox created "Press the B Button, Stupid!", or the Earthbound Halloween Hack. He created his own soundtrack for this twisted take on Earthbound, and the final boss theme proved a hit. Since then, it has reappeared throughout Toby's body of work, evolving each time and showcasing just how far he's come as a composer. THIS is the story of Megalovania, and the man who composed it.
This is my first time making a video essay, and I had a blast making it! I just hope that you also enjoy watching it. And, while it's a long shot, I hope sincerely that Toby himself will see this someday. I've got a burning question at the end of the video for him that's been on my mind for a while.

i want a tshirt that says "my favorite character died to megalovania and nobody ever talks about it"
Dude it's homestuck, everyone dies
@@BananaBoi27 still want the fuckin tshirt
I forget how young Toby was (and still is) when he did all of that
I love the bit of fanon that says sans was actually invited to smash, but was too lazy to go. So, he just got a guy to wear a sans costume and go in his place.
It still boggles the mind Homestuck and Smash Bros have one degree of separation lol
@@TehSkullKid If you think that degree of separation is crazy, on the Nintendo of Japan website, there’s an interview with Toby Fox where the first page of Homestuck is displayed!
