This is a link post I just spend four years making a music video I made this!
On and off, but I did!

Been a while since I've visited, how is everyone?

Hope you enjoy.

Nice work.

I don't know why more people don't make interactive music videos - it seems a really good format to get people to listen to the whole song, but I can only think of a handful of examples.

This is a normal post Thanks!
Yeah, one of my points of reference was King Gizzard's video for Infest the Rat's Nest; I thought a lot about how you balance a "game" with a music video. Didn't like how with that one you had to survive long enough to hear the entire song - from the beginning I wanted mine to be a full experience no matter how badly you play.

...also the game is designed to be impossible to 'win' so it had to be enjoyable regardless!

Takes that approach. Absolutely unplayable, yet one of the best games of all time imo.

This is a normal post Thinks for the recommendation!
Sorry, wedding, promo, etc. and wanted to give this due consideration.

I can definitely see how it's similar - a really interesting idea. Must have absolutely blown people's heads off when it came out!

I'm definitely going to keep it in mind for future references

This is a normal post Found it!
Great work on this. As someone who doesn’t really watch music videos anymore I think theres something in making them interactive. It’s a great way to stand out.

I really liked the visual style of what you’ve made here too. Looks fantastic.

I ended up like a million quid in debt lol

This is a normal post Thanks man
Yeah, I lost my voice mid pandemic (not due to covid). This game is basically how I dealt with the stifling creative lockdown I went through as a result.

You definitely made more of a 'game' though - much stickier in that regard.

And yeah, I spent a long time thinking about visuals/execution. Probably too long, but I didn't have a whole lot else to distract me! Now it's out it feels like a big weight has been lifted from me
