The Game Boy Game That Never Existed

- A GameBoy-style animation I created for my latest 8-bit music release "New World Unlocked". This is my most ambitious video project to date, I spent around 100 hours drawing all the pixel art from scratch in Photoshop and animating it frame-by-frame in Final Cut Pro.
I learned a ton in the process and I hope to keep making pixel art in the future. If you're interested in a "making of" video, let me know in the comments. My main inspiration (for both the music and video) was the Game Boy games I grew up on - Zelda (Link's Awakening), Metroid II, Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge, Super Mario Land and many more.

Thanks for watching!

Petition for this game to actually be made and GLASYS makes the soundtrack
You never know! ;)
If this happened, I would run out and buy whichever console supported it immediately.
The music is so beautiful
top comment, let's goooo
ooh, this would sound even more amazing with crunchy noise channel drums...
"fighting procedurally generated enemies with a MIDI controller" is an amazing idea!
especially visually ngl
Dude... That was SO good! You're insanely talented.
Thanks so much!
how are you so cool
This is so amazing. Did you spend time as a kid with the Gameboy just up to your ear listening to every part? This speaks to me on that level when I spent my time using my Gameboy as a pillow until I understood every part. I know this is a niche thing and it may not get millions of views, but understand that this means so much to me. Thanks for this. I'll be back.
Thanks so much! Yes, I would listen to my favourite GB tracks on repeat, listening to every nuance! Some of the games (like Belmont’s Revenge) had a “sound test” mode which I loved.
Thanks so much for your kindness and support! :)
That brought back so much nostalgia and so many memories growing up playing video games with awesome soundtracks! 🔥🔥🔥
You did the music and the animation FRAME BY FRAME? Now thats crazy DEDICATION, well deserved sub
Thank you! Yeah, there was no other way to do it (other than making an actual game, which I’m still considering!). I really enjoyed the process though :)
Aaaaaaw thanks for posting the game boy screen separately! I was squinting at the previous vid, but now I got to enjoy the epic music battle again! Love your awesome work!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks Zuhara! 🙏
@@GLASYS ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
ゲームボーイ世代には｢そうそうそうそう！｣となる演出ばかり！
それをよりいっそう感じさせてくれる曲が素晴らしい✨✨

I really like the squirming and unexpected harmonic progressions. Most of the cadences, resolutions, and key changes were wonderfully refreshing and courageous.
Honestly, this video, as well as your live action one, are so underrated. There should be SOOO many more likes than there are on this right now (617 at the time of this post).
Your music is so gosh darn good, it should absolutely be classic games like this (even if they aren't GB). I mean, it could even be featured in newer games that invoke that retro feel. For example, games like Shovel Knight.
Thank you, and keep making awesomeness like this! 😃
You’re incredibly kind, thanks so much! I really don’t mind the low views when I get comments like these 💜🙏
So glad you found your synth!
This is a next level content... audiovisual experience at its finest! Thank you for the amazing work!!
Thanks so much! Appreciate your kindness 💜🙏
You should be formally recognized for your overall creativity.
Thanks Drake! I have no idea what being “formally recognized” even means lol
😂😂😂
This is seriously the craziest thing I've ever seen I adore your talent oh my lord the game looked so real I'm amazed and watched it so many times.
This is absolutely insane, what an incredible production and I never expected it to be done all by one person 🤧 this is on the level of a whole team's worth of work here 🔥
Thanks so much! It was incredibly time consuming but I enjoy learning new skills 🙏
@@GLASYS wow, the fact that you imply that you learned as you went makes it even more incredible 🔥🤩🤩
With the soundtrack I would definitely play this game!
I think the best thing is how the proper notes are being played
I like every of your videos and this one is amazing in many points of view : creativity, interaction between game and music ... Congratulations 👏👏 I'm interested by a making of, will you do it ? Thanks again and excellent continuation!!
Thanks so much! I’ll definitely do a “making of” if there’s interest! 😀🙏
Full walkthrough, 100%, no damage taken. Daaaaaamn!
WHAT THE HECK this is freaking amazing
Thank you 😀🙏
Chefs kiss my friend! You are fantastic at animation also!
That was INSANE!!! Keep up the amazing work.
Thanks so much for watching! 🙏
This was mesmerising... you're a very talented human GLASYS. Appreciate you!
Thanks Lewis, appreciate it! 🙏
I love the way this sounds. Like something I've been yearning for.
The music is great! And I love the level style game animation you made! Such a cool concept, I hope you do something like this again!
I'll use this for a game
I don't hand out likes like candy, but the song plus the animation just dragged me to a dark alley and stole it. Amazing content!
Haha thanks Lord Turtle! 🙏😄
So good man! Great WORK!!
I love the creativity and the nostalgia. Creators are awesome, thank you Gil.
Wow! This is amazing, been watching you for a while now, love ur work!!
I wish one day I can enjoy your music in some video game, i'm such a big fan of the chiptunes you create. This one is EXTREMELY catchy after just one time listening. It's just amazing. Sometimes I really wish I could broadcast my feelings, bodily reactions or emotions in a way that an artist could understand it, the exchange would be amazing. Goosebumps is what I've got!
You’re the best Noël! Thanks so much 💜🙏
How does this only have 8k views? Awesome animation!
Thanks for the support Andrew! 😀
Woah this is so sick, both in how it looks (especially) and sounds
Well done it’s great!
Thank you, glad you like it 😀🙏
Nice work, love the pixel art and love the music. Enjoyed watching it! ♥
Thanks Treven :)
I'm here FAR too early for this. This is going to go somewhere huge. See you there.
This is forever a gem. ❤️❤️ Very much my vibe
This is so good!!
This was really epic! The time and effort really show brilliantly : )
Thank you 😀🙏
Been checking out more of your vids - subbed!!!
Thanks for the support, welcome to the channel 😀🙏
Completely blown away
The music is definitely Next Level! Excellent Video too!
Thank you! 😀
Amazing piece! and the fact that you did all the art! Very well done!
Thanks Big Redd! Glad you enjoyed it 🙏
I'm a pianist myself also a gamer so this is so cool!
Thank you! :D
凄い！！！！
めっちゃ作るの大変だっただろうな…
Hey that was neat stuff! Good job.
Hahahaha that was awesome and oddly nostalgic. :P
Beautiful music and artwork that referenced many video games from the past, it is a true honor listening to your work Gil.
Even though you are talented, talent is such a small portion to thank compared to the amount of hard work went into creating this, which is admirable. :)
This video is awesome, keep up the good work my man! :D
Thanks John! Means a lot my friend 😀🙏
For once i have a really good frame of reference for how stupidly time consuming something like this is to make.
You're insane man (ridiculous player as well), just found out about your stuff. Super fun - gonna keep an eye on you ;)
Yo thanks so much, I appreciate it! Welcome to the channel :)
Thanks for this good music!
Jeezz man, you are already a master at music, now you wanna eat those animators too 😆 Seriously, what a talent...
Haha thanks, I enjoy learning new skills :)
Can't stop listening!
It looks soooo good! The work on this is spectacular 🤌✨
Thanks so much! 🙏
@@GLASYS yeah this is fantastic wtf. Good job!
very cool as always
This is unbelievably impressive!
Thanks Joshua! Appreciate the kind words 🙏
Love your animation! It really feels like you are using a controller, like in the level 2 where you need to fall on the one block, really feels like your just tippytapping the d-pad. again A+ content
Thanks so much! I did my best to make the character movement feel natural :)
I’m very addicted to this man. Listen almost everyday now. It sounds mysterious, sth like adventure and full of emotional memories. It almost sound like a theme music for real life. Life is like a game
Hey thanks so much for the kind words. Glad you’re enjoying this, I appreciate you listening and leaving such a nice comment 🙏
This is incredible!
Thanks Samuel! Glad you like it 🙏
Miracle Piano should've had a thing like this
Broooooo this is so fire
Imagining you behind the scenes creating this…😵💫
Haha it was a slow process, but fun!
Great video
bro I'm listening to this on loop
Thanks, that’s awesome 🙏
This is amazing
Thanks so much 🙏
Imagine if we had music this good on the gameboy
Great video, Would love to see what you could do with a Megaman song
Thanks so much! Megaman is on my list, unfortunately I never played the games
@@GLASYS If you need any suggestions on the best Megaman songs i can put together a playlist for you to checkout
@@clutchhaze1036 that’s very kind of you, thanks!
Next Level
Awesome..
this is my favorite video on the internet now 😳
You’re so kind, thank you! 💜🙏
Amazing !!! omg
This is mad impressive
Hey thank you! Glad you like it :)
I FEEL LIKE A KID AGAIN !
That is incredible
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
This wa epic, we need this game, instead of RPG guns we'll have arpeggios lol
Underrated video
I think this is my favorite video
That means a lot, thank you 🙏😀
Very very very awesome
Thanks my friend 😀🙏
Glorious ❤
absolutely phenomenal work. my only wish is that you would post to soundcloud.
Thanks Jeff! Does Soundcloud pay artists for streams? If they do, maybe I’ll look into it
@@GLASYS They start paying you after a track hits a certain amount of streams. But with a track like this it’ll be no problem!
@@JeffereythePrimate thanks for letting me know! I’ll look into it
This is sooo coooool
Holy shit this is my new favorite movie! My life and career would look a lot different if I had a sixteenth note blaster.
Haha my man. You definitely do have a 16th note blaster at your fingertips!
YOO! That sounds like a Megaman song!, idk if you ever heard of MM but let me say that this is very similar to one!.
I've definitely heard of Megaman, never played the games though! Thank you! :)
Genius
My 5 yr old was watching over my shoulder and said "that game is stupid".
Lol
I was able to find a first cycle skip on the tridragon boss, I'll upload my findings in a bit. Should lower the world record by at least 10 seconds.
THIS IS THE COOLEST!!!!!
Keren 🔥🔥
✨
Вау, это так круто! :D
Quiero un juego así
Love it! This kind of music is what got me subscribing in the first place. Love to see more of this, even though it might not be as profitable.
Thanks Samuel! More is on the way. :)
Its kinda like if here was a kid icarus 3.
👍👍👍👍👍
suggestion: could you draw mario with midi?
Definitely on my list
גאון
this is so cool! but the gamer in me is concerned that you keep taking all the shots that are never gonna connect. like why would you play all the notes, the right way in a game like this would definitely be mashing one or two keys lol
Yeah it’s not supposed to “make sense” on GB. It could work with a MIDI controller though, control the game with a keyboard ;)
Is this a repost? I'm pretty sure that I have seen this already...
Not exactly, I wanted to share the animation separately (without the camera stuff) since I spent so much time on it
@@GLASYS Ah ok.
where can I play
It’s not a real game, it’s an animation :)
ik but like where can I play
@@GLASYS also bet you cant make a dragonball
You are not from this world. You were sent here by Mother Brain as one of it's minions to make every other synth composer to sound like shit. Can we PLEASE have a cover of Castlevania Bloodlines/New Generation "The Sinking Old Sactuary" track!
Lol Wesley! Thank you. I’ll check out that track, not sure if I’ve heard it
Thank you! Loving your work. Keep rocking. Greetings from Finland🤘
This makes me think that there totally coulda made a piano rock band like game
Sure!!.. but it would sound different and be much more repetitive... and much less composed than you. 😆 😉
You never know, I might actually make it a real game :)
Woah, saw it just now 😍! So much work and so underrated 🥺
Thanks so much, I appreciate you 🙏
