  • This video is a tribute to a youtube channel I'm a big fan of called @Wintergatan . I've synchronized the physics of the riders to the music, all done by hand. It's not a sponsored video, I just want to show my support for the marble machine project.

    The instrumentation paired heavily with the animation just made this feel like a celebration of life and relationships. In the ending where the music intensifies, it felt like others coming in, helping out, and continuing more friendships with those around despite what was lost. I felt that especially, but that was only with the visual storytelling you added. This is why I have been subscribed to you for well over a year, maybe two (time is weird and hard to keep track of, and I'm only 18).

    That was honestly one of my favorite pieces you have ever done and it means so much more because of the story you have told with it. Anyone who has followed the saga of the marble machine X recognized key elements and associated the narrative of the music and movement of the rider in a way that was emotional. This hits in a way that was truly amazing. Thank you.

    For some reason it made me ridiculously happy seeing all the little sledders backflipping in sync. One can only imagine what they must be thinking..

    I want to add my voice and say I absolutely loved this! I have followed Martin since the first Marble Machine and I love that you managed to blend all of the feelings that the roller coaster journey has brought!
    I really felt like that ending was almost a premonition of the MM3 project, Martin falling and realizing the MMX was doomed to fail, only to be helped by himself and his followers to begin again building an amazing machine to finally conquer the mountain!!
    Seriously, congratulations on a beautiful piece of art!

    Wow, this was incredible, genuinely choked me up. Seeing all the riders come together and rally behind red, after the Sisyphus knock-down, really got me. Really captures the journey of Wintergatan and its community. Even if you let the machine go at this point Martin, you've done amazing work and I've enjoyed every second. Big thanks

    This was fucking amazing. I got chills and cried a little. Martin and Wintergarten Wednesdays got me through covid when I wasn’t working and was discovering new levels of isolation and depression. This encapsulated the hope and the wonder that he gave me with a simple concept that was hugely complicated in practice, but beautiful to experience. Thank you.

    Wow, those sled trades at the end felt like the community coming in and giving more of their support to help martin, but ultimately... It was not the case. Maybe it helped him realize he needed to learn a bit more before he tackled the mountain, but this piece was pretty, and definitely shows the journey that we went on together wit Martin.

    This was absolutely stunning. It was totally unexpected and absolutely jaw dropping. The timing and the theatrics of each little rider losing and regaining his sled was truly mesmerizing. Each motion seemed so calculated and perfected to almost minutia. Thank you for spending the time to create this unconventional work of art.

    this is incredible, I didn't think it was possible to make such a cohesive narrative in Line Rider but you nailed it. I have been a supporter and Patron of Matin for a long time and it still kind of makes my heart feel heavy how things have gone, especially at the part where he hits that boulder and falls. I really hope Martin takes the time he needs to recuperate and enjoys the journey, not just the destination

  • @smallbar2012

This is an actual masterpiece, a visual symphony.
