I would like to extend warm thanks to everyone who worked on this project at all, as well as you for watching this all the way to the end. To the creator of fingerbones, you have created a truly exceptional piece of fiction and I hope you find success because of it. You too, audience are all awesome, and I hope you all look forward to future projects of our own.

WE DID IT!!!!
Congratulations man
FINGIE BONES
It's insane to watch this finally come together! Working on the music for this series was an absolute joy, and I'm so proud of everybody in the team for the work they put in! This does the original story and NGC as a whole so much justice, and I hope you all enjoy!
I made that screaming clip to complain about mic peaking, and buzzkill turned it into one of the coolest audio effects I've heard all week.
Godspeed, Fingerbones.
Maybe this'll break the curse of NGC stories never getting finished.
A short, but quite thrilling ride! I wanna hear that kickass ost later! 😊
be sure to check out Buzzkill's fingerbones OST, then. It'll be uploaded later today 👌
although i'm two weeks late to this, i just want to say that this is probably one of my favorite fan-made works for any media i've paged in recent times.
the weird tonal shifts, the brief lapses from gameplay and the overall uncanny yet intriguing world presented in finger bones is just so wonderful -- and it perfectly mirrors the same feel of NGC itself while also standing on its own in many regards.
and if i have one specific point of praise for this story, it's definitely the narrator character's way of connecting in-game events to his own life.
as much as i love NGC, it always felt especially odd to me how the epiphany that the game is sentient would become somewhat muddled with the rest of entropy and most of extus.
but here, the clarification as to imagery like zero strangling the "witch" character and the house at the art show is reserved for the very end where there isn't anything to slog the immediate impact and expansion of these revelations.
and above all else, i feel that the narrator's comments on his life and his family were done extraordinarily well here -- their implementation of these memoirs felt organic and gradual to where these connections remained concrete.
NGC's melissa subplot, to me, wasn't as impactful as it could've been since it is dropped as soon as it's introduced for the most part -- we only really get further elaboration on this point come zenith. and by then, we're already at the conclusion of zach's playthrough with acacius and red fighting to the death.
it also helps that this narrator is much more open to talking about his life -- i know that zachary is written as a secretive person who hides his pain (even billy, zach's closest(?) friend since childhood, didn't know about melissa apparently), but that fact only makes it stranger that zachary eventually opens up in full about melissa the way he does.
but with finger bones, our narrator establishes himself as being very much open to discussing his life, his thoughts and his values (albeit, he was kind of forced to) -- and thus, it's much more natural for him to continue adding fuel to this fire of "game-world-real-world" parallels.
overall, this is legitimately peak. i don't know any other way to describe it without another hundred or so words.
lastly, i want to point out 21:30 specifically. not even kidding, godzilla's words here legitimately brought chills down my spine the first time i watched this -- even now it still kind of does.
the raw anger of the narrator in this moment and zero's face seething with rage suddenly being juxtaposed by soft ambience and a stoic godzilla urging the narrator to give him another chance to "be his strength"... it's just so good, dude.
and i think it's perfect how contradictory this moment is. godzilla shouldn't be able to talk. he is a symbol of destruction, not strength. hell, shouldn't he be dead as the narrator presumed he was?
in combination with the ending screen of him standing next to who i presume is supposed to be an in-game counterpart of the narrator's mother, it perfectly encapsulates that surreal yet warm feeling of finality that NGC's ending gave me when i'd seen it the first time.
this segment and NGC's ending screen may be cheesy and out of place to an almost comical degree (the ending screen with everyone alive again in NGC was like a band-aid on a decapitation LOL), yet it's weirdly beautiful too.
this scene also paints an interesting divide between zach and the narrator of finger bones with the above in mind.
zach holds the godzilla IP very close to his heart and is well-versed in retro gaming, meanwhile our narrator here is much more invested in written literature and isn't much a fan of what godzilla is conceptually speaking.
and yet, godzilla here still fights for both of them. perhaps finger bones in its entirety was just an ambivalent facade to cover up the actual journey of godzilla fighting a distorted ghidorah, and this interaction is that veil being ripped away.
after all, the narrator has now proven that he can fight his way through an unfamiliar world -- that he can overcome this anomalous cartridge, even if he's very much unfamiliar with the medium its many perils are confined(?) to.
yet, even if he wasn't, even if he hadn't, i still feel that godzilla's words here would've still been the same.
"give me one more chance to be your strength."
as dumb as this sounds, the mental image of this giant radioactive dinosaur standing firm as the only inalienable shred of hope against the complete infinity and nihility that this cartridge can create is weirdly powerful to me.
and it only makes me empathize more with zachary, who frequently looks to the big g as a beacon of light in unfamiliar circumstances.
i remember seeing a comment interpreting NGC as being representative of depression -- and while i don't agree with it in whole, i did agree on one particular aspect: godzilla represented courage.
and that's peak.
AAHHH THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS DISSECTION. You picked up exactly what I was putting down, and I'm glad it paid off. :DDDDDDD
@@masterzucchini197
and an even bigger thank you to you and everyone else over at transcendence team for coming up with probably the best tribute to NGC i've seen yet!
i could rave on and on about what i believe various elements of this story may mean, but it'd be better-suited for a doc or a video of some kind lol.
again, massive kudos to you all for creating peak -- can't wait to see what you and this channel have in store for the future!
Channel owner here. Genuinely, comments like yours are the reason why I wanted to start TT in the first place. Hearing someone appreciate the beauty of an NGC fanstory on this level makes me feel an insurmountable level of joy.
We hope you enjoy what we may post next, as we have many, many, things planned.
I'm a huge fan of lumberjack mythology and stuff, so I'm really glad to see the Hidebehind mentioned!
I guess the real finger bones were the zero we along the way.
But for real, it's amazing to see this fanstory get a video adaptation. It quite frankly, deserves it. Looking forward to what's in store in the future!
After watching again the prologue warning, i finally understood that the protagonist probably died by the same fate, at least he is reunited with his mother. Still its sad tho
Time to hunt for a hide-behind with a very large hitty-stick
The ending is very surprising and a very nice twist too
Congrats! Always nice to see an NGC fan project that both finishes (instead of being cancelled after one or two episodes), and that isn't just garbage-tier shitposting.
hey you take that back arten kirsi's replay is peak and you know it
this is one of the most fascinating fan-entries to NGC. a Godzilla NES prototype that corrupts itself into a completely new game while still keeping the general simple gameplay and board map layout as the latter.
Amazing, simply amazing. This trilogy of videos is peak, it's the story that feels more like a game. I had the the theory of zero becoming red somehow due of this being one of the last test of the team but I love this ending. Congratulations to everyone that worked in the project. ^^
Hell yeah, it's doneso.
Cool story, cool art and banger soundtrack.
Oh boy finnally one ngc fan story with a satisfying ending :D
(Sorry for bad inglish)
this was an incredible series the sprite work and audio is amazing and the story is nicely made
A pretty nice story. It would be nice to have a playable version and what i got curious is that uncertain fate ending tho.
seb died
@@TranscendenceTeam-tm2ky ye, just like i realized and mentioned in my other comment
@@MarcosDestroyerah, my bad
@@TranscendenceTeam-tm2kyno worries
9:28 this means I had enough of Nintendo re-releasing the thousand year door
That's what I would do to princess peach 12:26
do the zero wero !!!
10:41 OI, HODZILLA
24:41 the skinwalker has been slain by some creature from the cartridge….it smells of petrichor
12:32 that’s ironic, cause clearly one of the two of you actually cares, unlike you
4:03 my autistic brain finds that laugh slightly arousing
Interesting!
