ULTRAKILL and Doing FPS Games Right.

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ธ.ค. 2022
- ULTRAKILL is one of the best FPS Games on the market right now. It's fast, vibrant, and has tons of style. A game that knows what it is and isn't afraid to branch out while also innovating on it's sub-genre. A Lightning in a bottle kind of opportunity to experience something new and refreshing.

You have cams on me bro 💀
I won’t stop now
They will watch more
Because it is
best thing about ultrakill (imo) is the fact that boss encounters could be hours long or literally seconds. makes you realize how much you really improved
Exactly. I had A LOT OF TROUBLE defeating the 4-4 boss my first playthrough.
When I was showing the game off to my friend (Basically after P-ranking all of ACT 1), I beat the boss in 3 tries.
When I was going for the 4-4 P-rank, I beat him first try, also P-ranking the level.
People have found ways to instakill V2 (1-4)
I assume you mean hours as in you keep dying but I misunderstood as literally just fighting a boss for 4 hours on one attempt
worst thing in ultrakill is no gay robot sex
@@ajajaja_el_pendejo_el_pendejo really? I mean. Robots don't have gender. You need to have the same sex to be gay. And how would that even work? Disconnect some cables and zap other robot? 🤔
Fun fact about claire de lune: You don't need to get the skulls, in fact you can just be more badass by shooting the window above the door and jumping through it.
I discovered this on my first attempt, and thought that the 3rd skull doesnt exist and itz part of the puzzle
@@steponkusceponas4085 it does exist, but it's (kinda) well hidden.
@@uvlaka8652there are actually 4 skulls.

I love how Ultrakill keeps every weapon viable through progression and have all of the different varients with unique mechanics that I don't see in other games.
[MY OPINION. Plus, it just occurred to me in the middle of typing this that the creator of this video already talked about the weapons...I'm just rlly passionate abt this ig lmao] [TL;DR: Hard agree, OP!]
Piercer - Line up some weaker enemies to kill faster, usually filth and strays.
C o i n (Marksman,) - Useful for Drones and other quick-moving enemies. Can be paired with railcannon, Piercer, and other weapons to wipe out bosses in SECONDS. V2 Bully Weapon.
Sharpshooter - Personally nuke projectile enemies. Also a middle-finger to rows of fodder enemies, and big enemies like the hideous mass or cerberus.
Core Shotgun - Good for bullet-punching, and nuking/exploding enemies. Good for crowd-control.
Pump Shotgun - Explode enemies, if you're skilled enough, you can do this WITHOUT the 50 health toll. ALSO good for crowd-control.
Sawed-On - Melee AND gun. Also, you can combo parry the alt.
Shotgun Alt - Full Melee, requires skill, and is VERY useful for taking down big enemies, like bosses.
Attractor Nailgun - Good for mowing down fodder enemies quickly, and also maurices. If your enemy is too quick, stick a magnet on 'em and open fire anywhere. Charges up the Overheat, as well.
Overheat - Good for bypassing the Attractor's limit for a short period of time, can set enemies on FIRE.
Jumpstart - Works in tandem with the Attractor, and a double-edged sword for Wrath, or anywhere with water. Stick 2 magnets on an enemy, have a group wander into some water and so long you don't get too far away while using the taser, they will all die from electrocution.
Alt Nailgun (Attractor) - Amazing for slower enemies, or Swordsmachine.
Piercing Railcannon - Like piercer, but can go on for a longer line and more OP. Can be used with the coins to create an ultrariccoshot. Smite them all.
Screwdriver/Drill - Useful for 7-4, big enemies, and both prime sanctum boss fights. Does longer damage, and can heal from a distance.
Malicious Railcannon: You can nuke things. Core + Malicious railcannon. Huge powertrip.
Rocket Launcher - You can ride your rockets, more mobility.
S.R.S - Bigger boom.
Firestarter - BECOME THE STREETCLEANER, BURN THE HIDEOUS MASSES. I mean..Great for crowd-control, AND dealing damage to the wrath boss, and others.
[Slab variant not mentioned here bc yeah. It'll prolly just be used automatically anyway]
I think my favorite little thing with ultrakill is that, whenever someone reviewing the game says something along the lines of such and such is too whatever, the problem can be boiled down to skill issue
or its just "no sex update :("
game too fast
@@nilsgameking technically there is official support for vibrators, soooo
@@andreadangelo2299 uh-huh. I know, a lotta those reviews were written before that mod though.
@@nilsgameking they didnt look hard enough. Look closely inside one of the buildings that has the power box in 2-2.
you see, every hitscan weapon can be defected by the coin and the piecer charge is a hitscan, you can guess the rest, also great editing work there
Certain enemy attacks are also hitscan
@@thomaswang2223+ chargeback
Your channel only has 2 videos but they're so high quality. I'm excited to see your channel grow. Although I think the pacing and structure could be improved, the editing is impeccable. Good job.
The editing is really nice ngl
i agree
i agree
I agree. Devil Trigger at the beginning works way too well for Ultrakill.
I agree
Eh. It's competent but it feels like it's trying too hard. Needs quicker pacing.
this is a poppin video, thoroughly enjoyed my entire watch through, what a fantastic way to spend my christmas. finding a new creator to be excited to upload for. FANTASTIC!!
No fricking way that you find this one, I'm shocked to see your name since I've actually been binging through your content a bit back!
@@NeatOz haha endic showed it to me! love your stuff, hope to see some swag in the future. merry christmas!!
@@NeatOz I’m a little late but I also bought this for Christmas, but there was one issue. I am TERRIBLE at fps. I never even played it. I still had a fun time though and p ranked everything dispute how hard it was (I did do it on violent, thanks for asking) and now I’m proud to say that I’m good at fps! This TRUELY was the game of the year, merry christmas
I remember when I first played the visual novel level, I thought, "Oh, Hakita, you son of a bitch. You son of a bitch! I'm not playing this game to get emotional, man!!"
Haha but it was pretty good. I really enjoyed it and it wasn't what I was expecting at all, really loved how it was written.
“The 4th and final weapon”
Haikita: I’m about to do what’s called a pro dev move. *adds rocket launcher*
Ultrakill is a rare beast, an experimental sucess that is rooted in old styles like older doom style FPS and old combo systems of hack and slash games merged into each other seamlessly.
Ultrakill Doesn't feel like dusk, amid evil or even like unreal. It doesn't have the resource management aspects inherent in the original genre, nor the style of maps, not even like the multiplayer deathmatch arena style maps, it doesn't have the weapon hierarchy traditional in the original genre it's based on (again). It has mutated soo much from quake despite that being a strong part of it's influence that it has a completely unique impression. Not to mention it's just polished to an absurd degree.
I just want to say, Something wicked is one of the most scary horror levels I played recently, and all it had is a breathing Blender Armature model
i swear the fear that enters my body when the visual novel level is mentioned is so intense
(mostly a joke, its garrenteed your going to get a crazy good speech abt how life is worth living and I'm all for it)
"What sort of game is Ultrakill?" "You can punch your own shots to shoot harder"
how does a video so well made and beautifully edited and animated get so little views?
im not sure other Gabriel profile picture
Ultrakill weapons feel like they are so basical to the regular eye, but have SO MANY COMBOS, AND TECHNIQUES! HELL, WE MAY STILL HAVE SOME UNDISCOVERED THAT THE COMMUNITY STILL HAS! The game literally WANTS you to discover these things. It never says “hey, press this, then punch that” or “press this, freeze it, and jump on it. If you shoot it, it go boomboom” and thats what i love about it. IT WANTS CREATIVITY AND DEMANDS YOU TO TRY TO DISCOVER THESE! On accident or on purpose! Good job on the devs for doing that. Honestly havent seen many games with that.
corpse of king minos is a boss that basically teaches you to improvise with parrying
At around 12:30 you talk about how you need 3 skulls to progress. One thing I love about this game (and that I think shows its personality) is that you have to search so hard for the 3 skulls, find them, and there's some lore attached with the book... or you can just shoot the glass panel above the door and skip all of that. It's outside the box and I love it
Your commentary on 2-s was absolutely beautiful man, you did an amazing job on this video.
Hey Thanks for the credit not many people go to that effort and I appreciate that.
I honestly never expected the fan art to be so persistent across the community.
more to come ;)
I loved the work, I hope you get more success with your incredible work man!
editing is absolutely fucking top notch holy shit. this editing surpasses channels with hundreds of thousands, if not 1mil+ subs and you have less than 1k. superb presentation and script writing, excited to see more from you in the future.
You did the game justice with this one. You deserve more recognition.
The youtube algorithm has bless this beauty of a video, and I'm happy for you! Well done on all fronts, and I'm glad to see this masterpiece before it gets above 6k, hell, even above 10k, which it will, easily.
This is some of the best editing I've seen of any fps review.
Dude, this video is incredible. As a fellow video editor and Ultrakill fan, your editing work and ability to break down what makes Ultrakill so great are absolutely incredible. I can see you becoming huge on TH-cam and I can't wait to see that growth with my own pair of eyes. Looking forward to seeing more from you!
The quality of this video it was so impressive for a 1000 sub channel, definitely a 10/10 video.
15:59 He's just below the drone (it took me a hard minute to find him)
Pretty good video - I've seen basically every video essay on Ultrakill out there, I guess that's what happens when you're obsessed and in love with a game, and I quite liked this one. I gotta say, knowing you play Overwatch, your editing style reminds me a lot of Marblr's, who you might or might not know. The cadence of your speech a bit too! Love your transitions and your humor.
You know, I do know if Marblr however I didn't know a lot about him not watched him back when I was working on this video. I do now though!
You are criminally underrated and this video is so well done that I’m physically hungry for more after it
Stumbled upon your video from my recommendations and this was quite a pleasant surprise from the usual stuff lmao
Great editing with a perfect mix of humour and genuine commentary - can’t wait to see what you do next!
dude i cant even describe how much you impress me. this is only youre *second* video and already quality is AMAZING
You know what? I'm subscribing because of the subtlety of you telling us to subscribe.
Also, your channel name is very apt considering the editing style.
This is some god tier editing that I didn't expect from a channel with only 700 subs.
Seriously, this is incredible
cant believe this video only has 22K views.
The editing, the voiceover, everything about this video is criminally underrated. Keep up the quality content man.
I LOVE that you put a huge emphasis on lust's secret mission. the first time I went through it I was in a bit of a shock and I think it was the most important part of the game for me, and what sold it as one of my absolute favorites. the gameplay in this is some of the most fun I've had playing a game EVER and I'm so so glad I found it
"Haha this is just like DDLC"
"Wait I wasn't serious about the DDLC part"
Amazing video, especially the editing! Also very fond the music choices. Can't wait to see more from you
the first time a video of yours got recommended to me I watched it and liked it
now, another video of yours found your way into my retinas and I really enjoyed it, excited to see more, keep on going
THIS EDITING STYLE IS EYE CANDY.
The celeste music during your conclusion to the video fit's so well with what you were talking about
2:04 the lil editing goblin in my brain loved that transition so much!
Man your usage of sfm is amazing. Makes the visuals extremely interesting.
When i saw the video i thought you would have like 200k subs minimum but just 1k? Underrated as all hell. Great job!
i really liked how you put your editing process at the end of the video, i think it’s beautiful the amount of work you and others put into your projects.
thanks you, creator.
❤
Same as Lonley Shpee, this is such high quality and great voice over. Can't wait to see what you release in the future!
hearing Something Wicked breathe really set me into fight or flight that level messed me up man
Your editing style is absolutely fantastic! You know exactly what you're doing with each cut, and the animations are satisfying to watch. I feel like I'm watching a creator with years of experience! Keep on doing what you're doing, you've earned yourself a subscriber!
this is such an awesome sauce video, im so glad this got reccomended to me! people like you start out strong and it will pay back sooner or later youll see! cant wait for you to grow my man
i’ve recently bought the game and played it, let’s just say i get the hype now
I like how V1 plays music for himself, implied that the music is it's own meter in it's calibration screen.
LOVE the use of "in you belief" at 17:30
This seems like the beginning of a well-edited, well-structured and high value per video type of channel, and goddamnit I love these kinds of channels.
Keep it up, my friend!
Ik it was only uploaded recently but... GET THIS MAN. MORE VIEWS
I see some pretty high quality content in your channel, it’s actually weird to see this much skill in editing with only 2 vids. Congrats
Bruh, i thought that it was some big youtube channel I've watched, amazing editing, pacing and my favorite theme as well
I didn't even realize your channel was so small until I looked for more videos and only saw one other. The editing, quality, personality, just everything feels like it's coming from youtuber with years of experience and you only have a couple months. Keep up the good work man!
This video editing and pacing is very nice. Keep the good work
Thank you for the video. Although I don't know English well, I translated this video for myself. Good luck to you in the development of the channel, because you have a cool voice, a beautiful montage of interesting topics
One of the best editing I've seen, congratulations, hope you go well on TH-cam
But I noticed you have Deep Rock Galactic in the beginning, I would love to watch a video of it in this style
Ayo... Thats some quality content you got there. Keep on! You have a very bright future as content creator
really good editing. script is kind of all over the place, but that can easily be worked on
I wasn't looking at your sub count while watching this and for the whole time I thought you were well over 1 million subs by now!
Your editing is so smooth and easy to understand, loved the video!
only 2 videos and already being reccomended by youtube? nice job
you have a bright future
*no im not going to talk about the video*
God DAMN this editing is incredible! Your channel deserves so much more attention
this video was beautifully made! it's like it came from a youtuber with 343k subs, not 3,43k!
Great video with really good editing !
This needs more attention ^^
cant believe you dont even have 1k subs man, keep up the good work. video was Supreme.
This is such a good video and the editing is also really clean. I can't wait what you have planned next, Keep up the good work!
Wow, that video is just incredible. I'm getting heavy "Scruffy" vibes from it and it's awesome! I really want to see more of this and maybe act 2 as well as P-1 (P-2 even?). Continue this style, there is a lot of potential in this
is noone going to mention how SICK This editing is?
Oh btw the graphics are like ps1 or ps2 but it fits the game perfectly for a fast paced game and it helps me focus on who im fighting somehow
loved the video man, you deserve way more recognition, thank you for talking about ULTRAKILL it's no doubt my favorite fps :))
Only 721 subscribers? Dude no way, the quality of this video is top tier 🔥 great stuff
Edit: the music choice for this video is also impeccable
I feel like Ultrakill being my first fps has spoiled me. Everything else feels so slow in comparison.
Amazing editing on this!! I appreciate your dedication to crediting everyone in the description too. Only going over Act 1 was a good choice too, you gave a solid idea of what the game's about and there's a lot of moments in Act 2 that I think are better going in blind. Also appreciate you taking 2-S seriously, seen a lot of "le funny dating sim refrance" as if a silly hyperviolent shooter can't have it's fair share of heartfelt bits too. Looking forward to your next vids :)
This is an extremely well made video. Hope it gets the recognition it deserves! The editing is comparable to Max0r, if tuned down a bit.
max0r but he wasn't smoking 20 grams of pure crystal meth while editing the video
Max0r but he wasn't throwing visual flashbangs every 2 fucking seconds
"a bit" is an understatement
Maxor but without the everything.
Amazing editing !! Great video :D
I can tell your channel is going to go far !!
Even if you will never get to read this, i wanted to say that you content is very well made and enjoyable. A lot of other videos made on ultra kill are focused on the intense and Adrenalin giving gameplay. But your video gives meaning to the game besides the obvious which i really enjoy.
I read as many comments as I can
This was an amazing video and so amazingly animated I really really really hope for your absolute success
The editing on this video is so clean
Dude you made 2 videos and i absolute loved them,they are high quality and interesting to watch,waiting for new vids
Really underrated,I loved the editing and the detailed explanation you did!
Very well made video, cant wait for this to go viral
Found him, he's right below the drone
talking about ultrakill with ROR2 music in the background = instant sub
This vid honestly make me cry. Beautiful. Beautiful
I feel like the screwdriver is great for temporary reprieve during bossfights. It's more of a utility tool, though I'm sure that alone was obvious.
I know this comment is from a year ago, but something also very good about the screwdriver is that you can hit it and make it move to another enemy and do very good damage to the enemy that had it before
timing parries is the one thing that always gets me
I've played practically almost all the best fps games ever made and Ultrakill is hands down one of the best ever made even with it not fully out yet. There was something that happened after Half Life came out in 1998. People suddenly became obsessed with making games focused on story over gameplay. Yes HL is one of the best games ever but games stopped looking at Doom or Quake and looked at Half Life. We didn't go back to basics until the late 2010's when games like Dusk came out and revived the genre and showed that there's still a market for these types of shooters. Ultrakill is just an extension and refinement of what should of came a long time ago. It also wouldn't have been possible if the indie gaming revolution didn't happen in the late 2000's and made it viable for a single person or small teams to make games. Without that I doubt we would have gotten a game like this ever.
Man thia channel is so nice. I gind it pretty neat they put so much effort into these videos
this channel is underrated. editing is amazing.
this is a rare gem, I thoroughly enjoyed this video, can't wait to see your future content
MAN, such nice fucking editing my guy! from an aspiring editor, This is some extreamly great work, I see a bit of Ahoy and FUNKe mixed with quick burst of Maxor's energy which i would NEVER have thought that would work so nicely together but man, you did a great job going from section to section of the video, truly amazing work and I wish i could dedicate this hard to editing ngl XD
and thats just act 1
cant wait what you have to say about act 2
O Neat, now dawns thy reckoning, and thy gore shall glistening before the temples of man. You will not forget about thee.
I think i made a mistake...
@@NeatOz And thy punishment... is death!
Very cool video!
I really liked the motion graphics and animations you made
came for cool ultrakill facts
left with existential dread
This video is absolutely amazing! And you have great music taste too 🤘
very high quality video, surprised you don't have more recognition. Also, nice taste in music man
