The world building of gameoverse would be less of an issue if the show didn't take itself that seriously but it handles it the worst way possible where it simply swaps between dark trauma and quirky gag logic, looking pretentious and insecure.
When you watch Adventure you don't ask why Finn is the only human, you can understand it's a cartoon premise. But if episode 1 starts with Finn watching his people violently die and proceeds to have multiple realistic panic attacks (TM), the viewer is going to ponder this stuff more.
You know, with all this talk about gooning for cartoon furries, wasn't there a famous cartoon reviewer who's notorious for that? One so famous
he has his own thread here?

I have yet to see someone explain gameoverse is
good. Doesn't have to be a 4 hour video essay, i mean a simple honest line saying why you think it's good. Or just say nothing cause you know it speaks for itself. But most of the online dicussion i see is either some variation of
-POTENTIAL CARTOON
-blind praise for indie animation and industry circlejerking (bordering astroturfed)
-Random crossover fanart with popular games and very forced memes
-cat girl horny posting / bashing
and saberspark is part of that. He spends 3 minutes literally saying nothing but "the work they put into this", "a big step on the indie landscape", "it takes a lot of effort and team work to make something of this caliber". "they don't get enough props" and then dismisses criticism as "searching out for flaws and dismissing everything else".
>"The majority of us will never experience the hardship of making a cartoon" "It's WILD to see how much status youtubers gained over the years" "It's not a copy of pibby, yes it has the destruction of crossover worlds but it's not a copy"
AAAAAAA is the entire video literally going to be this be this??? Is this a grift to stretch the video to 20 minute mark? It has to be.
>Our main characters must help the bad guy win so they defeat the good guy and save the world? That's a cool twist with lots of
potential for exploration

>Yes the girls have the same body type. Fanservice? Maybe, but i like it. And it's only the pilot so i'm sure we will see what they cook up next
>It's a pilot it serves the purpose of getting the ball rolling. It's very smart to leave the viewers asking question.

This is not a real review, it's just mindless glazing. I know it's pilot yadayada but at least talk about the execution and wether you think the creator can live up to it.
If Glitch's goal was to find a second TADC then i think Gameoverse won't make it. It's youtuber and newgrounds names attract a new audience but one they probably already had (terminally online / indie animation fans) and it's unlikely to bring actual kids/teens or normies. It's tone is all over the place.
Like, you need more than good animation fights to make kids and teens watch your show (look at Rise of TMNT). Murder drones for example is a hyper chaotic and "cool" show, while TADC is so unique and started pretty funny. TADC main theme is also really iconic and easy to hum along (incredibly underrated factor).
