What I really love about this song is how it's so tonally different from the likes of Hurry Up, Pizza Time, and Collapsing Time Rift. While those songs express urgency as the world around you is falling apart, this sounds absolutely triumphant and cathartic, which fits as you play as a demolitions expert. The objective IS to destroy it all. And you get to bear witness to your craft as the level falls apart during your victory lap to Brulo's Bar for happy hour.
Absolutely agreed. Wario and Peppino are running from an impending threat, fearing for their lives. Anton couldn't be happier that everything's blowin' up. _He's in his fuckin' element._
"Hurry Up!" - the level is falling apart, pick up the pace! "It's Pizza Time!" - the level is falling apart, run for your god damn life "Outta My Way, It's Happy Hour!" - the level is falling apart, _make it fall apart faster :)_
Wario land 4's escape theme show what Wario feel at the moment: WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON ?!?. Despite that, Wario destroy everything on his way to get the treasure. Pizza time represent peppino's stress growing as the clock's ticking: he's doing all of this to save his pizzeria. Death that i deservioli is even more stressing: peppino isn't even doing this to save his pizzeria, he just brave the death. Bye Bye Pizza Tower is completely different, it represent the feeling peppino has while escaping the tower: he's going to do it, he's going to win, he DID it. the tone of the music is not stressing, it's heroic, he's saving everyone and stops pizzahead's schemes. "Outta My Way ...It's Happy Hour!" shows the anger of anton: He want to destroy everything. The clock's ticking mean completely something else here: Anton wait for the explosion, at each second, the final flourish is closer.
The death i deservioli: Hey, you just made a fatal mistake, but now it's really good! Sweet release of death: you made a fatal mistake. *NOW HURRY THE FUCK UP!*
“And…UNO! WAHAHAHA! 4TH WIN A ROW IT’S ALL MINE!” “Mama Mia, can you shut up? My-a head feels like it’s been stabbed…” “Don’t worry about him, ‘pino. I got it. Reverse, reverse, draw 4.” * silence for about half a minute before Wario flips the table *
Funny how each escape theme has it's mood Wario Land 4's Hurry Up: Chaos which is occuring in the level Pizza Tower's Pizza Time & TDTID (Lap 2 Theme): Fear and panic converted into pure rage and adrenaline Antonblast's Happy hour: No fear, Pure motivation and destruction
I feel like happy hour has the slightest bit of fear for destroying the place a bit too much to make it impossible to escape/waiting for more stuff to explode
I'd say TDTID is also pretty motivating. Since unlike Pizza Time, Peppino jumped through the Lap 2 portal knowing fully well what he was getting yourself into, daring Pizzaface to catch him if he can.
I love how triumphant the song sounds until around the halfway mark when the fact that you’re on a quickly emptying time limit kicks in and it gets frantic
It's kind of like the reverse of You Will Know Our Names, where the beginning is very menacing and intimidating, but once you get past that, it means you have a chance, and the song gets extremely triumphant.
@@denraimei32 tfw you arrive in hell and immediately fall to the depths… and satan just slides a detonator as your landing pad, starting happy hour before you can even get your bearings
The song has some proper “strength” to it now, it feels heavy, it feels fast, and most importantly it feels destructive! This isn’t a “run for your life”, this is a “finish what you started” type of feel and it fits Anton perfectly
Unlike Frog Switches and Pillar John, Happy Hour is rife with detours that serve no purpose at all except to forgo your own personal safety to sate your manic cravings for destruction
Hurry Up: Everything's collapsing, gotta hurry things up! Collapsing Time Rift: Been here before, just gotta speed up and rush to the finish! It's Pizza Time: You just set this place to collapse, time to run before shit gets ugly. Outta My Way: Everything's collapsing? *_Splendiferous._*
The subtle nods to Hurry Up! and the general chaotic energy this gives off is amazing. With this and Pizza Tower, I’m eating better than I would if Nintendo actually made a sixth Wario Land game.
One thing i really like is that the song gives you the feeling of triumph with a little bit of anxiety inducing stuff in it. Unlike pizza time and hurry up which pump you full of anxiety and adrenaline this pumps you full of triumph, while still giving you a bit of dread. It empowers you will still reminding you to get out of there. unlike pizza time and hurry up which intimidates and scares you
Its in character, as anton is a demolisions expert. He hauls a bigass hammer everywhere he goes, and during gameplay he breaks everything he sees for the poker chips. "Do what you must, for i have already won" comes to mind around 2:40 too.
Oh my god I just got it: The reason this song sounds so triumphant and powerful is because Anton is done with work (the level) and is rushing to the bar for Happy Hour
To quote myself from an upload of the old version: "I love how well the escape themes of Antonblast and Pizza Tower characterize their respective protagonists. Peppino is incredibly anxious despite his strength, and so Pizza time leans more into the surreal and "oh god oh sh## of fu##" aspects of the original Hurry Up, Whereas the more cocky Anton is accompanied by what can best be described as 'maniacal laughter, the musical'".
NEW AND IMPROVED HAPPY HOUR?!?? HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!! THIS SHIT GOES SO HARD!!! I'll be blasting this song until this game comes out!!!! YESSSSSS!!!! .... it's truly a good day to be a antonblast fan....
This feels like the glow-up "It's Pizza Time" had from it's SAGE 2019 demo to the final game. Saying it "blew me away" feels appropriate, given that it's Anton we're talking about.
I love how, in comparison to It's Pizza Time!, this song is just, _so_ much more angrier, in the best way. Sure it's still a hectic race back to the start, but it's not hectic because you're panicked and scared, it's hectic because you're destroying EVERYTHING in your path. You're goddamn PISSED and you're gonna show the world! Specifically 1:12 feels like its harkens back to Angry Birds, which is so fitting haha. This has such good victory lap vibes that makes the destruction all the more satisfying.
"You know, kids always come up to me and they go: 'Hey Anton, say the line, say the line, Anton!' And then I gotta go: IT'S HAPPY HOUR!!!!" *proceeds to start running and tearing everything*
The wario land ticking is officially my favorite instrument The other samples are good too, I heard one from mother 3, what could be a doom monster hurt sound, and a sample from the Windows midi soundfont (can't remember the actual name of it)
(I already commented most of this once but when I checked the comment section I couldn't find it, so apologies to anyone who sees two comments by the same guy that make pretty much the same point) As stated by the games composer in a tweet on June 5th, the motif the horns play in this theme is actually the motif for Satan. This changes the meaning of the song somewhat, as the triumphant tone said motif takes later on in the song becomes less about anton escaping danger and claiming back what was taken from him, and more about Satan possibly winning in the two's fund. Think about it, the longer that anton stays after happy hour begins, the more risk he's in, the longer the song goes, and the closer Satan gets to victory, so as such, in the later parts of this song, his motif is used more and more, and becomes more triumphant. This song is by all means Satan's victory theme, though I guess he is celebrating a bit too early, since anton/annie still have a chance at victory, but it does feel fitting for someone as egotistical as the literal king of the underworld to celebrate a bit too early.
I cannot get over how giddy I get every single time when I hear that alarm bell go off at 0:36. Something about it just feels SO right, like it can be seen as Anton finally cracked and WILL destroy anything in his path, or it's what enemies in his path exclaim as a 5 ton hammer is hurdling right towards them. Not to mention it's a perfect use of ending the buildup in the song. Basically saying 'HEY BUB! SHIT IS ABOUT TO GO DOWN AND YOU BETTER GET BLASTIN' like GOD I love this song SOOOO MUCH. I am beyond happy that I backed this game when it was announced, and I cannot wait to hear banger after banger in what is shaping up to be an amazing platformer/antonblastformer genre game.
God, this song slaps so hard. Please tell me I'm not alone when I say I love how the timer looks when you have to escape. It definitely looks like the WL4 timer, but it has its own coloring and tinge, to it.
I’m only just now discovering AntonBlast and I have to say? This is my favorite “time is running out, get out” song that I’ve heard in any game. It’s my favorite by a LONG shot. It’s extremely unique, and the pinned comment really explains it better than I ever could. You’re playing as a demolitions expert, you couldn’t be more in your element when you hear this song. It’s cathartic, it gets your blood pumping not with panic and stress, but with ecstasy and triumph. I believe all the songs that are like this are fantastic in their own ways (Hurry Up, It’s Pizza Time, Collapsing Rift, etc), but this is one of the most unique and well composed I’ve ever heard, and it owns that uniqueness COMPLETELY. Marvelous work, Summitsphere! I’m looking forward to playing this :D!!!
It's Pizza Time is Peppino screaming "AHHHH! GET OUT OF MY WAY! I HAVE TO GET THROUGH!" This song is Anton firmly declaring *"Get the FUCK out of my way."*
Whats funny is before pizza tower released. You'd have people calling it being called "Knock off Wario Land" and now its suddenly cool to compare any platformer with a timer as anexity pizza man
since everybody's doing it pizza time can be described as PANIC in it's purest form, as the level falling apart is an unfortunate side effect of you finding a way out meanwhile, happy hour is a combination of anger and motivation, because THIS IS ANTON'S JOB *_HE ACTIVELY WANTS TO DESTROY EVERYTHING HERE AND GODDAMMIT HE'S DOING IT RIGHT NOW YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA_*
every other escape gives off "the world is crumbling but you can do it" type of vibe but happy hour gives off the "GTF IN THE ELEVATOR THE WORLD IS FUCKING BURNING GET IN GET IN" type of vibe
One Yellow man said "Hurry up!", other Pizza Man said "It's Pizza Time!", And one Red Dynamite Man said "It's Happy Hour!" Then all of them started running
I've been listening to happy hour about once a day for a while now, just as hype music or because it's in my Playlist, and I'm thinking "if there's any part of this game that's allready we're it should be it's this song, I can't imagine it being any more hype" It is now more hype
I swear to god.. I played the demo of this game.. It was the best 20-30 minutes of my life. SERIOUSLY.. this captures such wario energy and that's a good thing. I love the gimmicks, the moveset, everything.. IT FEELS so good.. I wish you guys luck on making the full game because you guys go something great going.
You know what would be cool? If Annie got her own version of the song Like, everything is exactly the same, but only the main melody would be completely different instead
Antonblast is a game about a guy who gambles all his money away working a demolition job, and his only hope for survival is clocking out right when work ends and running to Brulo's Bar before happy hour ends to eat food at half price because he will physically starve without it.
I love Pizza Tower, Sugary Spire and Antonblast all use the same ticking clock sound as well as using GBA soundfonts in some way. Wario Land-like cinematic universe
It's so cool seeing the notes fly by, I would love to see a version without the logo in the way (or at least a smaller version of the logo in a corner)
IT TRULY IS HAPPY HOUR! QUICKLY LET'S GET OUTTA HERE OUTTA THE STORE BEFORE PEOPLE COMING IN SEE!!! Wait ... *THIS ACTUALLY GOES HARD!!!* WHAT THE HEEEEEEAAACKKKK!?!? -this game and song good at making me a TOMBOY! A MANLY TOMBOY GIRL!-- -also an exorcist a little bit-- 10/10!
Hurry Up/It's Pizza Time: Time before the level explodes, taking Wario/Peppino with it. It's Happy Hour: Time before Anton explodes, taking the level with him.
imagine a giant crossover where you climb a giant tower of pizza tower's gimmics n shit, and then you destroy the place from the top like antonblast with pizzaface chasing you all the way back down. epic as hell idea

And don't forget Glucose Getaway
@@sirreginaldfishingtonxvii6149 wario and peppino are running from an impending threat, anton *is* the impending threat
I'd say Peppino's objective is to destroy everything too and it's his personality that makes the running away type theme fit more.
This is exactly what I mean when I say that this out of all of those other three, Happy Hour has the most finality to it.
"Hurry Up!" - the level is falling apart, pick up the pace!
"It's Pizza Time!" - the level is falling apart, run for your god damn life
"Outta My Way, It's Happy Hour!" - the level is falling apart, _make it fall apart faster :)_
Meanwhile pizza time just spawns Pizzaface in. Pizza face acts similar to a blue shell from Mario kart
“Collapsing Time Rift” - GET THE FUCK OUTTA THERE!
Wario land 4's escape theme show what Wario feel at the moment: WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON ?!?. Despite that, Wario destroy everything on his way to get the treasure.
Pizza time represent peppino's stress growing as the clock's ticking: he's doing all of this to save his pizzeria.
Death that i deservioli is even more stressing: peppino isn't even doing this to save his pizzeria, he just brave the death.

I'd say TDTID is also pretty motivating. Since unlike Pizza Time, Peppino jumped through the Lap 2 portal knowing fully well what he was getting yourself into, daring Pizzaface to catch him if he can.
This doesn't feel like "you better run kid" escape theme. It's more like a "MAKE THE LEVEL CRY FROM YOUR DESTRUCTION" type of theme
anton's a demolitions expert, if you feel that from the music you definitely know what it's meant to be conveying
This should be the description of the song, literally on point
Peppino tryna survive hell while Anton bring hell to whoever’s trying to survive
I mean, smashing everything is the point of the game in the first place, so this is pretty much a victory theme
Full disclosure, I misread "you better run kid" as "You're Gonna Go Far Kid" like that one song by The Offspring lol

It’s also kinda like Virtual Boy Wario Land aswell.
Whats funny is before pizza tower released. You'd have people calling it being called "Knock off Wario Land"
and now its suddenly cool to compare any platformer with a timer as anexity pizza man
@@rayminishi689 started preduction in 2017-2018ish and still a ton of great demos, especially SAGE 2019.
Remember* :nerd:
Wow this song is so good it really feels like Anton is coming inside me
🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨
bro?
Replace coming with blasting
I think we have different ideas on what happy hour is.
I think I just blasted my pants whilst reading this.
Everyone, stop what your doing, ITS HAPPY HOUR
(started destroying the place)
HURRY UP!
YALL READY TO GET FUNKY???
IT'S HAPPY HOUR!!
the holy trinity
My mom said the phrase "Happy Hour" and in my head I literally heard "IT'S HAPPY HOUR"
anyone gonna talk about the Hurry Up!! bells at 0:49
“NEVER KEEP A MAN FROM HIS BOOZE!”
since everybody's doing it
pizza time can be described as PANIC in it's purest form, as the level falling apart is an unfortunate side effect of you finding a way out
meanwhile, happy hour is a combination of anger and motivation, because THIS IS ANTON'S JOB *_HE ACTIVELY WANTS TO DESTROY EVERYTHING HERE AND GODDAMMIT HE'S DOING IT RIGHT NOW YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA_*
No anton isn't in danger
The whole F**KING STAGE IS
every other escape gives off "the world is crumbling but you can do it" type of vibe but happy hour gives off the "GTF IN THE ELEVATOR THE WORLD IS FUCKING BURNING GET IN GET IN" type of vibe
gives off more of a "the world is crumbling and im all for it" vibe actually
@@catguy31 yeah anton is a demolitionist expert after all so you witnessing what you'd want to see
Pizza Tower is great but AntonBlast will be a *BLAST*
Lol XD
True, both games are peak and antonblast isn't even done yet
One Yellow man said "Hurry up!",
other Pizza Man said "It's Pizza Time!",
And one Red Dynamite Man said "It's Happy Hour!"
Then all of them started running
One for the money
Two for the hats
Three for the pizza
AND FOUR FOR THE BLAST!
This song gives heavy Multi-Man Melee 1 vibes.
Must be the choice of guitar at the start.
DYNAMITE ANTON'S ON A MISSION
GIVE HECK A TASTE OF DEMOLITION!
DONT NEED BALLS OR NUCLEAR FISSION
THESE GUNS GOT THE AMMUNITION!
Nice 10/10
It’s Pizza Time!: anxiety of Fear
Outta my Way! It’s Happy Hour:
*ANXIETY OF RAGE AND EXCITEMENT!!*
Glucose Getaway: ANXIETY OF FEAR MULTIPLIED BY 5
The amount of adrenaline packed into this track is unbelievable! Makes me want to blow something up
The FBI rn: 🤨
IT REACHED 1 MILLION VIEWS!!!
i like how they made the weird instrument guitar the old one had sound like a real guitar instead of a midi one
this song is awesome
September 13th, 2024. The day this masterpiece hit 1 million views. Mark this day, for it is a good one.
Anyone else notice the Boiler City leitmotif at 0:24? That’s an awesome detail I didn’t even notice at first!
Even a year later, I'm loving the Multi-Man Melee 1 inspiration in this track, even with all the added leitmotifs!
SAY THE LINE ANTON!!!!!!!!!!💥💥💥💥
It’s happy hour!
I've been listening to happy hour about once a day for a while now, just as hype music or because it's in my Playlist, and I'm thinking "if there's any part of this game that's allready we're it should be it's this song, I can't imagine it being any more hype"
It is now more hype
Alright i can still kinda hear the bells in the background. We good
I swear to god.. I played the demo of this game.. It was the best 20-30 minutes of my life. SERIOUSLY.. this captures such wario energy and that's a good thing. I love the gimmicks, the moveset, everything.. IT FEELS so good.. I wish you guys luck on making the full game because you guys go something great going.
ONE ANTONILLION VIEWS 💥💥💥💥💥
If this game had a 3ds port, it's HOME menu banner sound would be Anton saying "IT'S HAPPY HOUR!"
WAS NOT EXPECTING MULTI MAN MELEE
this feels like a dk slapping the ground for 15 minutes straight to unlock his retro stage
1 million views, time to celebrate, IT'S HAPPY HOUR!!!
This…this needs to be on every music platform.
You know what would be cool? If Annie got her own version of the song
Like, everything is exactly the same, but only the main melody would be completely different instead
At least she says the happy hour line when you play as her
Antonblast is a game about a guy who gambles all his money away working a demolition job, and his only hope for survival is clocking out right when work ends and running to Brulo's Bar before happy hour ends to eat food at half price because he will physically starve without it.
THE GUITAR AT 2:17 MY BELOVED
I've made it a new tradition to blast this song in my car whenever I leave work or college
I love Pizza Tower, Sugary Spire and Antonblast all use the same ticking clock sound as well as using GBA soundfonts in some way. Wario Land-like cinematic universe
Holy moly sound so good already!💕
I have had this song on loop for almost a week straight. God bless for giving us this banger
It's so cool seeing the notes fly by, I would love to see a version without the logo in the way (or at least a smaller version of the logo in a corner)
The real 1M wiews is the people we blast along the way 🎉🎉🎉
WE BLASTIN IT OUTTA BOILER CITY WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
0:05 “Nerd”
More like "fetch me their souls".
YES I AM A NERD.
IT TRULY IS HAPPY HOUR! QUICKLY LET'S GET OUTTA HERE OUTTA THE STORE BEFORE PEOPLE COMING IN SEE!!!
Wait ... *THIS ACTUALLY GOES HARD!!!*
WHAT THE HEEEEEEAAACKKKK!?!?
-this game and song good at making me a TOMBOY! A MANLY TOMBOY GIRL!--
-also an exorcist a little bit--
10/10!
this game is LITERALLY “wario land but awesome”
I really liked the part of this game were Anton said "It's happy hour time" and happy houreded all over the place
He was very happy
Hurry Up/It's Pizza Time: Time before the level explodes, taking Wario/Peppino with it.
It's Happy Hour: Time before Anton explodes, taking the level with him.
0:59 This is just a true banger right here
I always wanted to play as a rogue train locomotive packed with explosives, thank you ANTONBLAST!
This version of happy hour far exceeds the itch demos imo
imagine a giant crossover where you climb a giant tower of pizza tower's gimmics n shit, and then you destroy the place from the top like antonblast with pizzaface chasing you all the way back down. epic as hell idea
Interesting if anton had wall run how would it look
This is genuinely the best thing ive heard in my life, holy shit
