this video looking me dead in the eyes and saying “ooooo you wanna draw him so bad ooooooooo you wanna write about him so bad ooooooooooo you wanna play bug fables so bad ooooooooooooooo”
in other words: i may or may not be obsessed
Playing Bug Fables pratically blind and reaching the end of Leif's Request was one of the most impactful experiences I had with fictional stories in recent memory.
This video really captures the heartbreaking emotions of it in more detail than the game was able to. I especially got emotional when you represented Vi's Request, showing Leif being sad that he didn't get a heartwarming reunion with his family like Vi had.
@guthou2010 Thank you so much! Everything that I love about the storytelling of Bug Fables is perfectly represented by Leif’s Request. It left a big impact on me too, absolutely a highlight of the game!
I specifically decided to include VI’s request here due to how I interpreted Leif’s actions in Chapter 3, where he’s super pushy to Vi about making up with her sister. I can’t remember the exact quote off the top of my head, but he says something about how “something could happen, and you’ll never get the chance to say sorry”. That and the “we want to apologize to Muse” line at the end of Leif’s Request lead me to believe that he and Muse weren’t on the best of terms when he died, which has led to deep regret.
@@hyliaphora-cecropia wow, I haven't even thought about that added subtext of Leif's backstory (granted, I've only played the game once and it's hard to memorize so many lines of dialogue). José Fernando Gracia is a great writer.
This is a beautiful animation. It's a shame it seems so unnoticed, because I haven't seen such an accurate depiction of Leif's character in fan works before. Great work. :>
@shaunwilliams2386 Thank you so much!!! Leif’s mystery was such a compelling part of the game, I’m glad you think I did it justice!
Besides amazing idea and decent animation, can we just appreciate the smug doctor H.B.
@Uchudishe
Thank you! I'm glad you like her lol, zany scientist characters like her deserve the appreciation
This is amazing. This just proves to me this game needs a TV show.
@thatonedabifan It does!!! I’d love to see that, it’d work so well!
@@hyliaphora-cecropia The whole story is worthy of a very long 2D animated cartoon. The whole story. Not a detail left out lol. And you could have sidequest cooldown episodes.
@@thatonedabifan Exactly! It's the perfect story structure for it, and the colorful world and cast lends itself really well to animation. Imagine the score recomposed for a cartoon as well! It would be great
@@hyliaphora-cecropia It would be amazing. I would be able to die a happy woman if I got it... as well as a sequel game XD
@thatonedabifan Oh yeah, me too. Moonsprout is currently working on another game unrelated to BF, but I seem to remember them saying something about having ideas for a sequel that they’re going to work on after their current game is done.
They can’t leave us hanging with the eastern lands and Deadlanders! And we still have the flower gods! And that cryogenically frozen Elizant I to deal with! The world of Bug Fables is so expansive and so many mysteries are still left; a sequel seems inevitable.
this is absolutely incredible. easily the most dynamic posing and composition i've ever seen in a bug fables animation, so much love was clearly poured into every frame. i always wondered how you could portray leif's request as a standalone story to someone who hasn't played the game since it's something a lot of people could reasonate with, and i think this video is the clear answer.
i posted this in the bug fables discord, hoping this gets lots of reach soon enough!
@Jocobo Oh my gosh, thank you so much!!! Your kind words mean a ton, I can’t convey how happy this makes me lol. This animatic was one of those times where a PMV just materializes instantly in your head upon hearing a song, and it took me about a summer to complete from storyboarding to illustration. I definitely put a lot of love into it, and it’s great to hear feedback about the posing and composition since those are skills I’ve been trying to improve on in my art.
Thanks SO MUCH for the nice comment, it makes me extremely happy to hear from other Bug Fables lovers. I hope you have a nice day and that other people from the Bug Fables discord enjoy!
Can’t believe it took me over a month to find this beauty of a video but I’m so glad I did! Everything about this was so awesome! I especially liked the portion where you connected that segment of Vi’s request with Leif, I thought that was exceedingly clever. And may I add that you draw Team Snakemouth wonderfully :D
Thank you so much! I always thought that Leif’s insistence on Vi making up with her sister came from a place of deep regret, and seeing him pester Vi about it in chapter 3 was really intriguing to me before I knew exactly what was up. I’m so glad you like it!!
This is criminially underrated!!! Everything from the animation to the lyrics and visual interpretation is spot on!!! Amazing job😍❤
Thank you so much! I had a lot of fun planning everything out and animating it. I’m so happy you enjoyed!
This video makes me want to play bug fables!
@kikigarza9092 YEAHHH you totally should! It’s a GREAT game; good story, good music, fun gameplay, cute bugs-it’s got it all. I can’t recommend it enough. I’m glad you liked the video!
this is awesome!!! amazing execution of a brilliant idea (plus, always love some lemon demon)
@lumynoxx Thank you so much!
Wow what an incredible animation. Leif’s story is so horribly beautiful here. Amazing work!
@LeaderFuzzy57 Thank you so much! I always loved Leif’s story, what happened to him was definitely horrible lol. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
THIS IS INCREDIBLE
Thank you!
THIS IS SO COOL! I LOVE THIS!!!!🍄❤️
Thank you! I'm glad you like it!
how does this have only 173 views? a million more people need to see this, its amazing the effort and quality of this
@jan_AK Aww, thank you! Bug Fables is a pretty obscure title, so as long as even a couple of people enjoy this project, I'm more than happy. Even though 173 views might seem small, it's way more than I expected and I'm just overjoyed that the people who've seen it seem to like it!
The dog in your PFP is adorable!
This animation is just, incredible, i love it
Fun french fact : "C'est l'amour et blessures" means "It's love and bruises"
@Roro-if2zd I didn’t know that before, that’s really cool and could lead to some interesting interpretations of the song in its original context. I’m glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the fun French fact!
Absolutely lovely, I love your art style!
@LavamanSD Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed.
Ahhhhhh! This is so well done! I absolutely love the expressions you gave ever character as well as the quite dynamic poses! Keep up the good work :]
Thank you so much!! I’m glad that you enjoyed it!
WOAHH THIS IS SO COOL!!! Very well made!
Thanks! I’m glad you liked it!
@@hyliaphora-cecropia No problem, this is great!
Another video to add to the masterpieces playlist lol 👍
Wow, I never thought I would see something so beautiful but so underrated..
Thanks for making this
@colagoespuma726 Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it!
OMAGAAAAAAAAWDDDDD THIS IS SO AMAZING!!! everything just everything is perfect, i live the way you interpreted the lyrics. Wow just wow
@BeeOnAScreen Thank you so much!! I’m glad you like it!
This is so good!!!!!!
Thanks!
This is so well done!
Thank you!
HOLY ACTUAL HOT DAMN WHAT???? THIS IS. THIS IS SO GOOD. EVERYTHING I COULD HAVE ASKED FOR AND MORE. I am shaking this around like a baby rattle this is. ough. compliments to the chef bc i am eating good tonight. i went in a little worried bc i rarely see people who actually GET leif but. you Got Leif. you understand what makes him such an appealing character. you make me want to actually learn to animate so i can make the Tomcat Disposables leif animation thats been rattlign around in my head. holy shit. Not to mention the actual animation quality is incredible and INSANEGIRL HB HELL YEAAAA?
i dont want to talk you in circles but like. Bravo. I am actually so Normal about this. Will be showinf all my friends and screaming about every detail for the next week ok 👍
@sniv_thesnivy_snivson AHHHH THANK YOU SO MUCH!! You’re too nice, don’t worry about talking me in circles, I cherish every kind word like a little goblin clutching onto its hoard lol. I’m so happy that you like how I portrayed Leif, I tried my best to include the little things in the story that really piqued my interest even before I knew his *deal*, things like the implications that he and Muse had a fight that they never got to make up from, that one spy in the Tarantula Wizard hut where he realizes he’ll never see his parents again, Venus not being able to feel him, etc. And of course I HAD to include HB, she’s such a freak and I love her for it.
I am SO HAPPY that you love it, thanks again for the compliments! I hope you have a great day/night!
I just listened to Tomcat Disposables for the first time and DUDE. You HAVE to make that Leif animation, it would be incredible and I’m really curious what it would look like. This animation was an idea rattling around in my head like that for like 6 months before I ever put it to paper, you won’t regret drawing it out. Even if it’s just keyframes timed to the beat! You should totally do it, let me know if you ever upload anything about it since I wanna see! Good luck!!!
@hyliaphora-cecropia to put it simply: duet between the cordyceps and the original leif during the events leading up to his death. they get to be friends in a bittersweet sort of way. to sum it up in a phrase, Parasitism As An Act Of Love.
I... just have to actually learn to animate lol
Dude I LOVE that idea, that’s so cool!!! Leif (the cordyceps)’s relationship with Leif (the moth) and his memories are super neat to think about. We need more animations that discuss that relationship, since the idea that Leif(shroom) basically stole the identity, personality, and memories from the corpse of poor explorer Leif(moth) is overlooked in a lot of fanworks. And even though Leif(shroom) over the course of the game reaches the conclusion that Leif(moth) would have wanted him to find closure, expressing what Leif(moth) actually wanted and how he’d feel about Leif(shroom) would be super neat through that song. You can do it!
omg
AUUUUGHHH IM INCOHERENT ABOUT THIS AAAAGHHHGSGSHSJS RAAAGGGGGGGHHHH AAAAGHHHHHHH WWOOAAAUGHHHH AHGH AUGH AUGHHH THIS IS SO GOOD I LOVE YOUR ART DUDE!!!! I LOVE HOW YOU DREW LEIF!!! THE COMPOSITIONS OF THE SHOTS ARE AWESOME TOO
edit: also. CECROPIA MOTH!!!!
@kmrose4741 THANK YOU SO MUCH! So much!!! I’m glad you like it! I’ve been trying to work on coming up with more interesting shot compositions, so it makes me really happy to hear that people like how I did it in this! I didn’t expect this video to get so much positive feedback. I’m so happy that people are enjoying it :’)
Great eye with the Cecropia moth btw! I’m a huge insect aficionado (obviously lol), and the Cecropia moth is my favorite saturniid!
Fantastic
Thank you!
