- It's done!!
HUGE thank you to my roommates and to folks in The Lounge for cheering me on with this project. There's LOTS of talented people whose work has inspired me to create this. It is my homage to both the game and the community it has created. I hope you enjoy it!
Hades was developed and published by Supergiant Games. Go play it!

Hi guys!!!
I am so overjoyed about the fact that people are enjoying this!! I can't thank you enough for taking the time to give this a watch 💙🥹
"I wanna taste LOVE and PAIN" as he's fighting with Meg was PERFECT
it would be a crime to not use that line for them bahaha
And fighting alongside Than as well
Loveeeeee how you introduced color once Zag was in Greece and meets Persephone, great way to differentiate it from the underworld
thank you!!!!
I literally teared up here. Beautiful moment!
Hades, the Underworld not the God, is supposed to be pretty gloomy.
Coming to Patrocolus battered and beaten from Elysium was a mood, he always saves my runs.
same!!! he is a sight for sore eyes every single time !!
Love that you spared a frame for Zagreus watching the sun rise. One of my favorite moments in the game. We take it for granted, but he lived his whole life to that point without the sun.
Honestly, it was one of the frames I was looking forward the most to drawing! The first time you make it to the surface and see that sunrise is magical
Then after meeting his mother he dies and pops back up in the Underworld due to being bound to that realm being half-dead himself.
ughhh the fact that Persephone gets to see her son grown and ALIVE only to have to witness him dying moments later ;-;
@@SleepyPigeonn He'll be back in a while, just have to go through the gauntlet all over again.
@@ChasoGodyah but i feel like at some point the guards of hell should just let him pass through like he beaten them a million times
@@herbal_breed (SPOILER FOR HADES)
Considering by the end of hades, his job literally became to escape from the underworld as to check for breaks in the security, it’ll be kind of counterintuitive to do so!
ADORE how the various characters are matched up to the lyrics, like sisyphus for pride and shame, so good…fantastic animatic
yesss put my whole one brain cell into matching those frames, haha thank you!!
This is a true love letter to the Hades game and creaters behind it. Absolutely beautiful
exactly my goal in making this 🥹thank you!!
This went HARD and I love it. The realization in Hades eyes when his son defeated him. I also personally liked where the line "I wanna feel PRIDE and SHAME" Pride was Poseidon and Shame being Zeus. Chefs kiss~
Thank you!!1!! 🤗Haha cool uncle Poseidon 😎 vs questionable uncle Zeus 😬
I love how this animatic perfectly encapsulates Zagreus' character. Yeah, he's a badass who keeps trying against odds that are essentially impossible, but he's also an absolute sweetheart. He views Nyx like a second mother, he gets upset upon hearing Dusa got fired, and he tries his best to stay on good terms with the people who have to fight him to get in his way like Meg. Despite his desperate attempts to escape, he doesn't harbor any ill will towards anyone in the House of Hades save for his father, and even then he's somewhat passive about it. As fun as the memes are, it's nice to see this side of Zagreus get highlighted.
Thank you!! and indeed! it's cool that that character complexity is not limited to Zagreus, but is also present in pretty much every character of the game
This is so beautiful. My favorite part was the gods next to him as he fights. That was just so emotional it gave me chills
thank you! it was fun figuring out those frames/interactions :D
This is my second or third time watching this in just a few days because I can’t stop coming back to it. It’s such a beautiful tribute to the story and Zagreus as a character, you really captured his charm and determination as well as some of the game’s humor. Literal chills every time.
ahh thank you so so much for checking it out!1!! Zag is such a character, and the way the game balances humor with the heart of the story is amazing 💙
Loved it all the way through, especially great shot composition, and the change to color at the end was very effective
thank you!! the colors were a last minute idea tbh but I am glad I did them!!
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!! And so detailed!! All the gods helping him (matching with the lyrics too), and ALL the shots of everyone Zag encountered and helped and fought... makes me emotional!! And your art is so wonderful too, the compositions with all the different weapons are beautiful!! Thank you for making this!!
it was definitely an emotional experience making this :,) thank you so much for watching and taking the time to leave such a sweet comment! 💙
If men don't cry then I'm still a brat cus WOW. I completely loved the synchronicity between the music and the characters, everything fit together so, so well. The "love and pain" with Than and Meg, Persephone's letter giving him strength, the way he dies right in the final boss (his father) and still doesn't give up, the development, the colors- I still crying.
*Hands you tissues* Zagreus perseveres and that's honestly one of his greatest characteristics. Thank you for watching!! 🥹
I think this might be the perfect Hades animatic.
that's high praise right there ;o;
This is incredible! The way you matched up the gods with the lyrics in the chorus, the nods to the support characters... I actually laughed out loud when Zag got got by the trap in Tartarus (the amount of times those have taken me out when I play with trap damage up is unforgivable). The whole animatic really conveys the emotion of both the song and the game’s story. Great work!
Aww thank you!! The amount of times I've died to those traps 😭 sometimes you just have to laugh it off and give it another try
The lyrics of this song were perfect for Zag's story and the way you matched it all to every character. Amazing job and thank you for this gem!
thank you for watching!!
a whole story in such a short song with incredible animatics
awesome
thank you!!
I'm not going to lie to you, the second you introduced color I started to cry. This is a master piece of an animation and you really should be proud of yourself.
Ahh that's very kind!!! Thank you 🥹💙
this was SOOOO stunning and the colors at the end was MWAHHH GORGEOUS
ahh thank you so much!!!
I can‘t stress enough how much I love this animatic. I felt it in my body, i want it engraved on my skin and in my bones, too, when the ground takes me and I know I am super dramatic about this BUT THIS DESERVES TO BE DRAMATIC ABOUT I AM OBSESSED SO SO OBSESSED
thank you!!!! 🥹🫶
This is awesome! Watching your lines get more confident is very nice and the rhythm lining up with the frames also fit so nicely, 10/10 love it to death
aw thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm so glad I stumbled across this. The song is great, it fits Zagreus so well, and you did an excellent job matching the energy.
ah thanks for watching!!!
I love the way you draw all the characters!!!!! The emotion when Zag turned to color… incredible.
thank youu 🫶
Comment section shows just how much love and adoration there is in the Hades community
I LOVE the way you ordered the gods to perfectly fit with the lyrics in the first chorus:
*"Love and Pain":* Aphrodite and Ares - There's the obvious meaning, goddess of love and god of war, but can also work with Aphrodite representing the pain of love and Ares representing the love of pain.
*"Pride and Shame":* Poseidon and Zeus - Can work as pride over cool fish uncle and shame over creepy lightning uncle, but also, since they are both scumbags, could also represent pride over being the nephew of two important gods, and shame over their actions and who they are as people.
*"Don't wanna take my time/waste one line":* Hermes and Artemis - Hermes as the messenger god is always on the move, never taking his time, and Artemis as a hunter always lives in the moment, refusing to waste time lazing on mount olympus like some other gods **Cough** Zeus **Cough**
*"Wanna live better days, never look back and say":* Dionysus and Demeter - Dionysus as the god of wine and revelry is always trying to live better days and live without regrets, whilst Demeter is plagued by regrets over Persephone, longing for the better days when they were together as mother and daughter.
In conclusion, this is an amazing animatic, I love the choices you made, and I'm sorry for writing a boring media studies essay under it. :)
No need to apologize!! This is a wonderful analysis of the lyrics. I hadn't thought about the significance of taking the whole line "love and pain" as it applies to both gods and it's brilliant!! And exactly! Both Poseidon and Zeus, in all their grandeur, have done shameful things. Zeus gets the "shame" line in particular because his questionable actions play an active role in Zagreus' existence (both in myth and in the game). It's honestly surprising how well the lyrics worked for the game in general, haha. Thank you for your comment!! 🫶
@@SleepyPigeonn Thank you for taking the time to reply to this! It's an absolutely amazing animatic, and I'm glad this was a good analysis of some of the visuals! 😁
THIS IS FRIKIN GOOD, THE FADE TO COLOR AT THE END OH MY GOD, I APOLOGIZE FOR THE PERSON IM ABOUT TO BE FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS
This is easily in my top ten favourite animatics. beautiful. truly.
Ahh thank you 🫶 !!
This is everything to me i love this game so much. The way you aligned the action and characters to the lyrics and all the bonds Zagreus makes is soooo good 😭😭😭
it's such a GOOD game !!
I love the way you drew his Olympus-empowered attacks! And all the depictions of moments from the game that felt fresh and new but also really familiar. Idk this made me FEEL THINGS. It felt like a hug, or surprise snail mail from a good friend. Exciting and cozy all at once. Is that weird to say? Idk I guess I don't care. Good job
Thank you!! That's is the sweetest way someone could describe this 🥹
I've rewatched this so much... my fave part has to be the part with meg and the part with theseus, as the posing/composition is SO good there! Not to mention all the lyrical matchups.
I really liked how the story of Hades was about all these immortal and untouchable beings being emotionally exposed and forced to work through all their issues as a result of never dying permanently (including the shades) and it really helped that Zag was always such an emotionally honest character. And this really reflected that! It's like, the video is just as honest as he is, it just hits the core of it all so well for me!
I also like that Zagreus' honesty is also presented in a complex way. He does his best to help anyone who needs it, though he does rush into things (like reuniting Orpheus and Eurydice). Ultimately, it is that same honesty that helps all the characters work through those issues, as you mention, or at least begin the process.
Bro dropped the most magnificent Hades animation and thought we wouldn't notice😭🎇
🥹🫶
oh I LOVE this, especially how you matched the first chorus with the gods
This needs to be a full animation, it's WAY too good! The story, the cinematography, it's telling such a passionate story and follows rules without being super obvious like the rule of threes where the protagonist will always fail two times and succeed on the third. Zag in this dies twice, once to a trap and the other time to Hades before finally escaping the underworld. This is just *chefs kiss* beautiful.
A full animation would've been great (but so so time consuming haha). I didn't know that had a name tbh, the more you know! and thank you! 🫶
I don’t even have the words to express how amazing this is 🤩 The expressions, the frames matching all together, and the color at the end?! I can’t imagine how long it took to make this, incredible 👏🏻
thank you so so much 🥹
This is so amazing!! I didn't expect this to make me feel so emotional... I got chills seeing all the gods teaching Zagreus and fighting alongside him and I love the way you synced up the lyrics to match with the gods. I was shocked to see how holistic this was! So much of the game got covered and it left me feeling so emotional getting to see all of these snapshots and all the characters, especially that sequence of Zagreus meeting up with his allies like Than and Sisyphus! The sequence of Zagreus dying and then respawning in the House of Hades and meeting everyone again is sooo fun too. I really love that part of the song and the scenes you chose to put there feel so hype! I could point out all the details I loved in this thing, but then I'd be describing literally every single frame of this video lol Fantastic job, this looks like a huge labor of love and it really really shows :D
There's so much cool stuff in this game and it was fun figuring out a way to fit in as much as I could. Like the interactions in the House! It's such a nice thing to include in between runs 😌 It was a labor of love indeed🥹💙 Thank you for your comment! 🫶
This is insane! I absolutely love the work you did here
Thank you!!!
Love finding new little channels that come out of nowhere with banger animatics
ye ye 🫶
OHHH MY GOD OH MY GOD THIS IS ART THIS IS ARTTTT THIS IS SO GOOD I CANNOT EVEN. I am not exaggerating when I say I almost cried from the overwhelming feeling of emotion this gave me. ZEUS BEING THERE FOR THE "and shame" LYRIC WAS PERFECT like haha y e s shameful being. I also love love love the size differences especially like with Chaos?? And Demeter being the most distant of all the gods to Zagreus, and the little details like Zagreus being beaten up when he's visiting Patroclus and Achilles, AND JUST EVERYTHING THIS IS AMAZING
Taking Zeus' boons and dissing him at the same time is the way to go imo 😎 I am happy those details are getting noticed 🥹
I love this. Like i can't put in to words how much i love this. I love how it shows all the gods, all the bosses. It even showed Zagreus using different weapons
Thank you!!
Love love love this song, and it fits so perfectly with Zag and his story! This was awesome. Well done.
I think I speak for the people when I say, we don’t care how much longer it takes, we want it in 24 fps, your best work
It's very flattering that people want to see this fully animated, but to be honest, I am happy with it as is. Maybe in the future! I don't yet have the time nor skills to do this justice 😅
This is amazing! I loved how every scene flowed together
thank you! and that's great to hear!! scene flow was definitely something I put a lot of time on
my GOD this was so good holy shit, and so long??? such high quality???? incredible dude wowee
thanks dude :D
All of the frames matching with the lyrics are so pleasing to see. Love and Pain for Meg and Thanatos, Don't want to take my time when Hermes shows up, Dodging bullets with your broken heart with Athena's protection against the projectiles/I don't fear you now when blocking the mage's projectiles, the shades of Achilles and Pratrocalus (I definitely butchered the spelling) for don't want to look back. All of this is so damn good.
I am so relieved to hear the lyric match ups make sense 🥹 I spend a good chunk of the planning process working those out and worried if I was making sense or grasping at straws 😅 (and lmao I have butchered his name so many times)
This absolutely SLAPS!!! AMAZING
THANK YOU!1!!
This is amaaazing oh my god, I love the art and the choice of frames with lyrics was perfect. Something about the gods each appearing and being there to physically help or speak to him just is *chefs kiss* to me.
Oh my gosh this is so good I'm sobbing the way you drew EVERYONE and every area is so gorgeous. Ugh this game makes me so emotional I love it. You killed this!!
Haha I tried my best to include them all! And thank you!!
I CAN'T STOP WATCHING IT'S SO LOVELY OUGH the parts matching the characters it is so so so well put and very thought out good job!!! ❤❤❤
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! 💙💙💙
You have captured the essence of the game and its story perfectly! This is legit one of my favourite videos on the entire internet, thank you so much for making this!
That's very sweet!!! Thank you so much for watching it!! 🥹💙
The section with all the gods is so smooth!!! I want to drink it like a milkshake!!! the colours emerging with the sunrise, omg!! this is so good!
*Takes this animatic and serves it in a chilled glass with whipped cream on top* here ya go!! thanks for checking it out
Fantastic! This animation and the choice of the music show exactly why I absolutely love this game which is a masterpiece. Just like the animation 😊
aw thank you!! glad you enjoyed it!!
I love the fact you included Bouldy and that nameless king guy that stands next to him
Ikr
could never win a run without the support of Bouldy and that other guy fr fr
@@SleepyPigeonn nuh uh
Man this is so sweet! What a great illustration of Zagreus' struggles and journey ;V; I love Hades and this animatic represents it so so well!!
Aww I am glad you enjoyed it!! thank you!!!
HELL of an animatic, absolutely awesome
THE MUSES BLESS YOU MY FRIEND THIS WAS FANTASTIC!! You did amazing and i hope you feel every ounce of pride you deserve to revel in making something this glorious!
Ahhh thank you so much!!! 🫶
How you gonna sucker punch me in the feels like this, man? AS IF I WASNT DROWNING IN FEELS ALREADY
Sorry (it will happen again)
@@SleepyPigeonn good I need the feels lol now do one with the song “seven” by sleeping at last XD it’s very zag
THIS WAS THE BEST ANIMATIC IV ESSEN IN MY LIFE AHHHHH
THIS IS AMAZINGGG I love how you incorporated every character at least once! The colors and compositions are so good too, I really love the shot where Zagreus is standing between the prongs of Hades' spear. You're also so goated for including the programs you used, I always look at other art channels and they never list them LOL
Thanks!! Haha I am always curious about the programs people use for their art so i get the feeling
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL ,,
HI FROM THE LOUNGE!!! I've literally been so excited ever since you showed us the first WIPS! It turned out incredible!! You matched the lyrics to the charcacters perfectly and the transitions were drawn as though they were meant to be! It got the tears going
OMG HIII!!! I'VE BEEN SO EXCITED TO SHARE THE FINAL PRODUCT !1!! THANK YOU SO MUCH 🥹💙💙💙
Stumbled upon this completely by accident and was not disappointed. What a lovely journey you created!
Thank you for checking it out!! 💙
I loooove that song and it fits Zag SO MUCH wow! I adore it. Your introduction of deities was SO COOL and I love
a surprisingly good fit fr! and thank you 🤗
This just simultaneously brought back my hyperfixation after a whole year of not playing due to life being sucky. So pumped for Hades 2!
Oh boi I feel you, hang in there buddy. Can't wait for Hades 2!!
chills, straight chills i love how beautiful this is
THIS IS SO INCREDIBLE AND WELL DONE, Hades content in 2024 makes me so happy!!! Please keep up the good work! I am an instant fan T,T
Ahh thank you so much!!! I definitely have some Hades-related ideas I want to do 🫶
This was amazing, you captured the spirit of this amazing game perfectly

I AM CRYING
*HANDS YOU TISSUES* THANK YOU FOR CHECKING THIS OUT1!!

Amazing, honestly, such a great job. wow
I've never even played Hades and this is so rad, well done!
I may be bias but I definitely recommend it if you have the chance to play!!
@@SleepyPigeonn just based on the art style and the storytelling aspect through your video, I’m sold
AMAZINNGGGGGG, the scenes and the music oh thank you for making this animatic l know you’ll reach far with this capability to see every and each scene and draw it
thank you for your comment!! 🥹🫶
I'm crying, this is beautiful
THIS IS AMAZING!!!! i get so emotional abt zagreus' journey so maybe this made me tear up a little who can say ! i have to also mention i loved the transitions between the olympian gods, beautiful work
I feel ya! Zagreus is such a good protagonist and I am happy to hear this resonated! thank you!!
Incredible!!! The matching of the rhythm and lyrics is so good, the images with the gods helping him are INCREDIBLE, and having for each refrain the gods, then the foes, then the helpers? Chef's kiss
Thank you!!! I had a list of songs I wanted to use but this one won precisely because that section of the song could work for all those aspects of the game :D
Love it! Everything flows so nicely with the music
helloooo pooks thank you for checking it out 🥹💙
had freaking chills through every second of this!! amazing work!!!
thank you!!!
the hug at the end!
Zag deserves all the hugs tbh
Wow! This is amazing! Everything you put into this it's breathtaking thanks so much
Thank YOU!!
I don't have the right words to express how smart and good this animatic is :_)
my jaw dropped when the chorus started
great job!!!!!
ahhh thank you!
YOOOO THIS IS AMAZING!! The way you incorporated story elements is so good, and I love the way you drew Zag!! Your timing with the song is nicely done, too.
ayeee thank you so much for checking it out!! glad to hear I did Zag justice, he was a challenge at times n.n'
One I love this I never see anyone making vid about hades I’m so happy ❤
Aaaa this is so wonderful!! I love how many characters and story elements you managed to include. Great work!!
thank you!!! it's such a rich game! I tried to include as much as I could :D
"I want to take my time." Talking to gid of time. Kind of. Love the matching of lyrics so much!
thank you!!
My absolute favorite match was Zeus and Shame, the thing he never feels xD
Amazingly well done!
The way I’ve watched this at least 20 times in 2 days, I’m absolutely in love with it, it’s absolutely lovely!
I'm happy to hear you're enjoying it 🥹💙
this feels nostalgic, dang love this game.
it's such a GOOD game ٩(＾◡＾)۶
I have watched this like 5 times in a row it's so good I'm gonna cry 😭
you are gonna make ME cry 😭 I am glad you are enjoying it!!
this is so fantastic!!! i love all of the transitions and the way you used color, and the way you've tied the narrative with the song, just beautiful! i looove this
thank you!!! 💙
Бро, это буквально лучшее что я только видел по "Hades" Шикарная рисовка и шикарная работа с текстом песни просто не перестают меня удивлять!!!
Спасибо!!!
@@SleepyPigeonn ТЕБЕ спасибо!
So well done, so many different aspects of the game you captured beautifully, i felt the love that i had when i first played Hades. Thank you for your amazing work.
That means a lot! It's such a great game and I tried my best to represent that 💙 Thank you for watching!!
so cool to see a different perspective (literally)
This is so so so amazing!!!!!!!
thanks (´◡`)
I love how you put Meg and Than (the two love intersts) on two of the times it says “Love and Pain” cause it kind of does describe how the relationships are in game. There is a bunch of pain in the beginning but as the story progresses and you regain the trust once there before the escape attempts the love comes back.
Idk my brain is still on writing mode and that me trying to hold back a paragraph lol
Yeah!! At first it caught me off guard how mad they were at Zag, but it's more understandable when you see their side of the situation. (I love reading people's paragraphs you're good xd)
this is AMAZING & also im in love with how cute & persistent you animated zagreus.
he is such a good character 💙
It is good. I can clearly understand the story you are evoking and the events that play out.
This made me insanely happy
I am glad!! (´ω｀*)
Amazing animation!! I feelt a lot of emotions watching this and I love how most every character in the game is included in some way! Well done!!
thank you so much! 🥹
