It's always ironic and hilarious how the Dark Forest is portrayed in MAPs, more often than not. In canon it's a dark place where evil thrives and seeks revenge, meanwhile artists make it the best dark carnival of a lifetime
That's because the books only show the evilness,not the fun side!! After all,why would the cats be evil if they knew it'd take them to such a horrible place?
I think “ivypool can’t catch a break from the silly demon cats” is my favourite genre of map, honestly. There’s so many of them and they’re all so good
this map was so fun to be a part of! everyone in the server was so nice and helpful to everyone involved, and getting to animate ivyplush was so much fun. happy halloween!!
THIS IS SO COOL!!! The incorporation of the deaths of the cats in the series. Hawkfrost using the stake that had killed him as a weapon. The color pallet, character designs, concept, song choice. It’s amazing! Great, GREAT job to all the animators. You guys did an amazing job.
This is literally one of the BEST MAPs Ive EVER seen, the expressions, movements, and jokes are so wonderful, you can see the effort put into it, the art is gorgeous and WILD, most MAPs dont like to put too much effort into design, I love it!
THIS LOOKS FANTASTIC! Thank you so so much again for having me, this was an absolute BLAST to work on and I am so grateful to have gotten to work with such great people on this silly project ^^
OKAY SO IVE NEVER READ WARRIOR CATS so I don't know the characters, I only know the teeniest bit of lore from playing a roblox game💀 but OH MY GOD, Is being a warrior cats fan an instant way to become a godly animator?! Everyone is SO GOOD! By the way, i would love to read the books, but im already preoccupied with Rick Riordan's whole sha-bang. Yep, I'm a Percy Jackson fan, which to Warrior fans we're like cousins.
OHHHH MY GOD BILLIE BUST UP + WARRIOR CATS CROSSOVER YESSS I LOVE THIS SONG I've been watching the progress of this MAP for MONTHS and the final product came out so beautifully !!! Everyone did so well on this !! Hawkfrost Barnaby has so much character to him too UGH I love how every part with him looks. As with all the other designs
I DANCED SO HARD I BROKE MY SPLEEN I LOVE THIS MAP SMMM, I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT THE PARTS IN DISCORD FOR A WHILE. I HAVE BEEN WATCHING THE STORYBOARD AND NOW I LOVE THE RESULT!!!
I love how Ivypool and Hawkfrosts designs make them look more similar to Billie and Barnaby, especially hawkfrosts eyes having the same glowing and swirling effect as Barnabys but blue
OMG OMG OMG ITS FINALLY HERE AND ITS BETTER THAN I COULDVE EVER IMAGINED!! ALL OF THE PARTS ARE SO SMOOTH AND CARTOONY!!! EVERY PARTICIPANT SHOULD FEEL SO PROUD OF THIS!!! THE FUN UPBEAT SONG AND COLORS IF THE DF REALLY PULL THE WHOLE THING TOGETHER OMGGGG!!! IM DEFINITELY SAVING THIS TO MY FAVORITE MAPS LIST! YOU SHOULD ALL BE PROUD OF YOURSELVES!!
EEEEEEEEEEE ITS COMING OUTTTTTTT YAYYY [edit] THIS WAS AMAZING EVERYONE INVOLVED DID GREAT!! Im glad to be apart of this project!!! This is going down in history for sure!! >:D
i’m so honoured to have been able to take part in this project with everyone else. it really was a wonderful experience and i’m forever grateful for this opportunity to display my passion for the silly murder cats books thru animation and i loved learning how to work with other animators :] happy halloween guuuysss !!!!!! 🫶🫶
THIS IS SO AMAZING. THERE ARE TOO MANY THINGS TO EVEN POINT OUT INDIVIDUALLY BUT GOOOOD I LOVE HAWKFROST TAKING HIS STAKE OUT TO USE IT AS A POINTER AND THEN SHOVING IT BACK IN, SORRY FOR CAPS IM JUST SO BLOWN AWAY BY THIS. AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING, i wish this was the vibe of hawkfrost and the dark forest we got in the books. SUCH incredible, creative work from every artist and SPECTACULAR story direction OHHH I JUST GOT TO THE BIT WHERE THEY GO THROUGH THE REAL DEATHS IN THE BOOKS, SO. CREATIVE. THE PLUSHY. SCOURGE MOCKING TIGERSTAR. AAAAAHHHHHHHH IT JUST KEEPS COMING
THIS WAS SO MUCH FUN! Thank you for having me and letting me watch the work of some incredibly talented artists! I wish all the participants nothing but artistic success!
This map is incredible. Everyone in this map are amazing artists. Gotta love Hawkfrost as Barnaby! Ivypool's design is so good. Uunicornicc, your an amazing host. This is great and this fits with the books incredibly well.
OMG... THAT WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! i was already hyped for this map from the incredible concept and the fact it was inspired by and was using my favorite song from billie bust up, but you guys completely blew my expectations away! you all did so so well! time to watch this on repeat, then do the same next halloween!
tbh the bluestar drowning reference (im pretty sure thats bluestar and im only mentioning her death cuz im a warriors newbie) is pretty good, and i love illbringyoudown and klugde's animations, it just has that nice origami feel, I LOVE THIS KEEP MAKING STUFF LIKE DISSS
Omg this might just be my new favourite map, the animation is incredible and the voice for Hawkfrost is just… amazing. Also I just generally live Maps that have a intro
I love the fact that all the dark forest cats just chill and party instead of torment it’s real funny to me. Also the way HawkFrost uses the little stabby boi is really cool and creative, also rip to all the cats done dirty in the death scenes lol. Also 4:57 is my new headcannon for their voice it’s so funny to me for no reason, another funny one is 5:10 bro did BrokenTail so dirty lmao. 6:08 FreckleWish running from MapleShade.
I have said it already but Thank you so much for letting me participate! This was such a fun idea to work on, and i for sure was excited about it after havikg been obsessed with the song for a while jsjs. Very happy to see it finally finished!
AHHHH I’m so excited!!! Thank you for having me, it was a wonderful experience, thank you to all of the participants and especially to meemee for making this possible!! Everyone has done such amazing work, good job everyone!!❤️
I love how every MAP of the Dark Forest makes it seem like some insane yet whimsical place where everyone's having deranged fun - yet the books it's just a boring forest with stinky skinny cats who want to murder everyone including their own allies and aren't exactly the smartest bunch. The animators are so skilled and it took so much work to do, you deserve a round of applause.
5:37 best part White one: singing Calico one: 😏thinking shes him😏 Calico one: goes absolutely insane White one: "whats wrong with you" *keeps singing* Red one: AH
WOW!!! JUST WOW!! EVERYONE DID SO FANTASTIC AND THIS WHOLE MAP IS SO COLORFUL AND FUN!! Props to the animators and the map planners! This was fantastic on every level!

FR! It is really cool!
Hi Billie bust up!

@@shrimpo_playz That's a good point actually. A similar argument to how people would rather go to Hell 'cause it's much more interesting than Heaven
@@momoshikadora It can't be that bad if there's purple cats with eyes that go oooooo
@@coyotixthat's what I'm saying!!
I think “ivypool can’t catch a break from the silly demon cats” is my favourite genre of map, honestly. There’s so many of them and they’re all so good
4:39 “HawkFrost, don’t turn me into a marketable, plushy”
4:42 “HAWKFROST-“
This comment got me laughing hard AF when I got to that part
LOL 😭
the animation style at 3:48 is so unique!!! genuinely looks so so cool it had me in awe!!
🖤🖤🖤
Looks like it was maybe made in stick nodes which is so impressive tbh
That's true
A fri3nd of mine, Cioror, (who is on yt) has a similar style. I've emulated it a few times.
@@Jroobelucios Adobe CC (Illustrator / Animate) was used. But now that makes me curious about Stick Nodes
4:39 I was not expecting Ivypool to turn into her official plush 💀💀
Edit: Wow I’m famous ig
iconic🔥
lmfao
It had me cackling
i got to animate ivy spinning and falling, i don't know how i kept a straight face 😭
SAME LMOA
OMG I WAS NOT EXPECTING HER TO TURN INTO THE ACTUAL PLUSH THERE BAHAHAHA THIS IS EPIC
3:23 I love the facial expressions and body language here it’s all so smooth and full of character
“time to die gruesomely in a million ways”
-hawkfrost probably
0:12 I absolutely love the lip sync here! You can clearly see what Ivypaw is saying. All of the artists were incredible!
What was she saying
@@Shiverscalepretty sure it was
“what the-“
Ok
I thought you were joking when you said the minecraft version of my part would finish the map… (HELL YEAH)
WAIT TIMESTAMP? I WANT TO SEE
@@StupiidLuciid the very end, after the credits- the meme part
@ LOL I DIDNT WATCH ALL THE CREDITS SO THATS WHY I HADNT SEEN IT, I JUST WATCHED A
L OF THEM AND THAT END BIT WAS AMAZING LMAO
Bro i was crackling like baba yaga at that part
MINTGULL WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE 😱🤭
This is my headcannon voice for hawkfrost it fits him SO WELL
IT DOES HAHA
And found you again.
this map was so fun to be a part of! everyone in the server was so nice and helpful to everyone involved, and getting to animate ivyplush was so much fun. happy halloween!!
Mommy mumma a collab partner behind you
@@cougarsnarl-d2kyoooooo
This gives me Tim Burton movies vibes, also, I love how at 6:08 Mapleshade is chasing Frecklewish
THIS IS SO COOL!!! The incorporation of the deaths of the cats in the series. Hawkfrost using the stake that had killed him as a weapon. The color pallet, character designs, concept, song choice. It’s amazing! Great, GREAT job to all the animators. You guys did an amazing job.
THIS IS SO COOL, EVERYBODY DID AN AMAZING JOB
4:34 WITH SWIFTPAW WAS MY FAVORITE
4:40 oh no! she turned into a marketable plushie!
I enjoy how this map seems mostly serious but there's also a hint of spoof in it. It's very fun and the animators all did so well :D
This is literally one of the BEST MAPs Ive EVER seen, the expressions, movements, and jokes are so wonderful, you can see the effort put into it, the art is gorgeous and WILD, most MAPs dont like to put too much effort into design, I love it!
I swear Halloween maps are always the most unique and coolest maps this community ever does
5:14 XD Scurge jus trolling TigerStar!!
I haven’t read a warrior cats book in maybe 10 years and tiger star is the only name I’ve remembered in these comments
HOW DID TIGERSTAR GET SO ORANGE 😭 oh wait tigers are orange
Bro I love both there expressions in that part 😭
I’m literally dying this map is hilarious
THIS LOOKS FANTASTIC! Thank you so so much again for having me, this was an absolute BLAST to work on and I am so grateful to have gotten to work with such great people on this silly project ^^
I absolutely lost it when she turned into the official plush. Hats off to whoever thought of that, that was perfect.
3:40 I CANT STOP WATCHING THIS PART I LOVE IT SM ESPECIALLY HOW ITS SO SMOOTH, VERY TALENTED ARTISTS
OKAY SO IVE NEVER READ WARRIOR CATS so I don't know the characters, I only know the teeniest bit of lore from playing a roblox game💀 but OH MY GOD, Is being a warrior cats fan an instant way to become a godly animator?! Everyone is SO GOOD! By the way, i would love to read the books, but im already preoccupied with Rick Riordan's whole sha-bang. Yep, I'm a Percy Jackson fan, which to Warrior fans we're like cousins.
Is avery cool fandom and the books are really good!
The marketable plushie caught me off guard💀
Amazing map! The color palettes are so random but fit so well! Purple is definitely hawkfrost’s color👍❤
4:57 this part cracks me up so badly-
What do the lyrics say?
@@Sunny-WolfI think “I danced so hard I broke my spleen”
@@Wolfnadoyeah it is
Oh good I thought you were gonna be like @EvaDrawz 💀 (look a few comments down)
gotta love the little Scourge making fun of TigerStar
OHHHH MY GOD BILLIE BUST UP + WARRIOR CATS CROSSOVER YESSS I LOVE THIS SONG
I've been watching the progress of this MAP for MONTHS and the final product came out so beautifully !!! Everyone did so well on this !!
Hawkfrost Barnaby has so much character to him too UGH I love how every part with him looks. As with all the other designs

I DANCED SO HARD I BROKE MY SPLEEN
I LOVE THIS MAP SMMM, I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT THE PARTS IN DISCORD FOR A WHILE. I HAVE BEEN WATCHING THE STORYBOARD AND NOW I LOVE THE RESULT!!!
4:57 “I came so hard i broke my spleen :3” I CAN’TTT 😭😭
It’s actually “I danced so hard I broke my spleen.”
@ OMFG- HOW DID I MISHEAR THAT!??
@EvaDrawz i always mishear it like that too :'D
@@kuronadroid 😭😭😭
I also heard it wrong 😭, I thought "...Run that by me one more time?-"
I love how Ivypool and Hawkfrosts designs make them look more similar to Billie and Barnaby, especially hawkfrosts eyes having the same glowing and swirling effect as Barnabys but blue
5:27 i feel bad for bro he just wanted to eat
I love how Hawkfrost looks like the cheshire cat, I love the cheshire cat 😻😻
I was terrified of the Cheshire Cat…
And still am
0:46 why did his body snap like that- 😂
Did bro just glitch
Owl
Went into a coughing fit laughing at that
(pop)

All of the art styles combined makes such a unique animation and it was awesome!
This is so incredibly animated!! What a cool concept too i love everyones art styles and now fluid the animations where!!!!
