As a huge Disney fan even now as a 24 year old adult.. vmk was one of my favorite things about my childhood. I remember my dream was to get a stitch hat and someone made that happen before it closed.. the community in vmk was the best.
Justin Moss same!!! Haha
Sad feels
you can go on the new vmk! its just not the same
I still count the closure of this game as my first heartbreak.
Omg this. I was only like 10 in 5th grade and I cried when the final "See ya real soon!" popped up. I was too young!
I was 12 I think and gosh, it still breaks my heart. Such a sad moment!
I think I can safely say that playing VMK was one of the most memorable parts of my childhood.... Especially at a time when I had a lot of trouble making friends. And just kind you, it boosted my interest in theme parks.
As someone who was a huge player of VMK back in the day this is absolutely beautiful!
But no really, I cried when I heard that sound that you hear when you first log in after years of not hearing it! VMK was a huge part of my childhood and I’m so glad MyVMK give me a chance to relive it.
I agreeeeeee =)
VMK would be perfect during quarantine
Netcot is a fan-run remake of VMK that I highly recommend if you want some VMK to pass time during quarantine :) netcot.center/
I so miss working on both project mentioned in this video... Habbo Hotel as CrestHawk, but most importantly as VMK_Sparky... Was a special few years of my life, that is for dang sure!!!
Thank you for your work on some truly special games (though I did not play Habbo much, VMK still has a place in my heart)!
@@DreamsoundsVideo it was a few years of my life I will never forget. From first learning of VMK thru my now ex-wife, to doing the quests at Disneyland, and later becoming the Events Coordinator and then Community Manager of VMK. Just an amazing few years. And while I had moved to Habbo before VMK closed, I was still there for the end. It's amazing to see some of the players today on my FB friends list and to see them as adults with kids of their own. Just a great feeling and I will always remember my time playing and working on VMK. Heck my last name even made it into VMK on a special "Racing" pin. It was just so amazing and I miss it all the time mainly as a player. I had so many rares. Lol
@@MSLARacing What do you now?
@@mactastic144 I still work in gaming both on the customer service side and also as a Jack of all Trades (Social media, production, scheduling, community management, etc...) for a Indie Developer in Canada, we make a Twitch interactive game called Marbles on Stream.
WOAH SPARKY! I remember going to your host games all the time before you slowly drifted out of it :( I always thought HOST_Hurricane like took your place lol
VMK is a really good game. They did a great job
Rewatching some of your oldies, because I really enjoy Dreamsounds. I'm 27 and played VMK vehemently in the last year of it's life and I have to agree that it was one of the catalysts to have me love Disney Parks. The ambience was exactly what drew me in, especially that entrance pathway. I was so heartbroken when it was canned and I held onto those memories forever. One in particular is I believe there was a mod with all the magic stuff unlocked that would stand out in the courtyard and "perform magic tricks", but also the amazing rooms people made to emulate Disney rides (you'd have to walk from stool to stool to have the "full experience" lol. Beautiful work, as always!
The beginning to my MMORPG obsession. I truly believe I’ve been (unknowingly) searching for the feeling I had while playing VMK ever since
The Virtual Magic Kingdom closed because the multi-million dollar contract between Disney and Sulake ended. Disney wasn't interested in renewing the contract because Disney wanted to become financially viable. Disney spent $700 million acquiring the Club Penguin IP. Subscriptions dwindled years later, so they decided to release a sequel that was easier to maintain. Club Penguin Island was shut down after executives saw that there wasn't enough subscribers to keep putting money into the game. Just a little note: There was going to be a way to monetize the game (called VMK Gold), but it never got off the ground. Disney Interactive is no more.
I've worked in audio on Disney projects, and VMK was my whole life for those 3 years. I miss this game with my whole heart.
Wow thanks for making this video. I didn’t know about the connection between vmk and habbo hotel!
My childhood
MINE TOO
@@DreamsoundsVideo myvmk brought it back
@@atsmithson It's not the same.
@@mactastic144 what's the difference?
I remember all my 50 girlfriends on there. And trying to keep them from riding out about each other😂😂
Thanks for this excellent deep dive! Brings back lots of good memories.
Oh man. I feel like crying right now. I miss this so much. 😢
brandon mahadeo Have you checked out MyVMK? Some people recreated it a few years back
Nicholas Pesch I did brody. I signed up today and did so much. This is def gonna back on my play list bthanknyou though. Hope to see you on. =)
there is two remakes of this game out right now. MyVMK which has everything working and have alot of different new stuff made on the game. VMK Legacy doesnt have any mini games working at all and does have alot of new stuff as well. Hopefully we see everyone that doesnt know about the two remakes. join the games soon and have fun!
I miss this
So awesome! It makes me want to be in that place and time and get lost in VMK.
Tbh I'll never forget VMK. One of my fondest memories is having a really close group of friends who I closed the night out with every weekend. Near the closure date, HOST_Harmony came to our party and gifted me Inferno.
Watching this in 2021
Oh god. Habbo Hotel. Why are you making me re-live my teenage cringe years??
amazing vid
13:15 why do you say something so dishonest about room making? Habbo Hotel has had room builders since forever and before they added the stack tile you'd have to use rollers and Z shelves etc and glitch
