@@keep_undertale_alive The Fandom assuming that _none_ of the siblings being able to speak annoys me, since that's what they're _supposed_ to be, not what they _actually_ are. They're "failures" for a reason.
Hornet: "y-... you killed yourself?... for cookies? I... you could've just waited until after dinner... you... you KILLED YOURSELF!... for... cookies?"
Man, this was HILLARIOUS! I love the way you signified that all the three siblings live there with the nails on the wall. I love all the various skips, and the lego joke. And I love that Ghost didn't just ask Hollow to get the cookies. They wanted THE ACCOMPLISHMENT. Path of Pain can do that to a person. Overall, this is wonderful and filled with sibling energy
I love this. I love this so much. I love the fact that they could have asked Hollow for help, but instead they literally off themselves with a Lego to access a cookie jar. This is art.
The fact that all 3 of them are siblings makes this so much better. The Knight is like the naughty little brother, Hornet is the responsible sister and The Hollow Knight is the quiet big brother.
Imagine, if you will, that you are minding your business, building with Legos, ans your naughty little sibling comes in, makes eye contact with you, and just *dies* And then your sister runs in shouting about the cookie jar
The way hornet reacted to seeing the shade skip was just legendary. The sudden “huh?” And the eyes just bulging is why I came back to watch this a 2nd time.
I love how the Knight steps on a single lego and instantly dies. That is so funny. Especially when Hollow was *right there* and could have *been asked to get the cookies for them*
So I just realized this, but all the sound effects are ones found in the actual game. Like, every sound was just something they could’ve taken from the sound files, even the jumping and cloth rustling sounds. It really adds to the believability that we’re inside their world! Nice little touch, you could have just found some plain old run-of-the-mill sfx, but you chose those specifically and made them work for the story!
Between the different techniques Ghost used, the detail of THK's nail being on the rack with Hornet's and Ghost's, plus the proposed LEGO Ideas Hollow Knight set, perfect animatic.
Is a move that's both impressive AND concerning! Like imagine seeing the little bug die and turn into a ghost, something that's unusual already, and then it somehow appears out of thin air on a bench, pogos it's own ghost, and walks off like nothing happened.
I didn't put an end screen on this video but I DID make another video that's kind of in the same vein as this one: ruclips.net/video/ioXOWvJ4dhE/видео.html The lego set that THK was building is by the user Ben Osborne on LEGO IDEAS, you can check it out and support it here if you'd like: ideas.lego.com/s/p:66cf4c6c893249af84456443ca1cd6bc (it has 60 days to reach the next milestone of 5000 supporters and still needs 500 more to reach that!) :^) Also, please remember that the vessels are canonically genderless :3
I've only really succeeded at 1 particular skip in HK, and it was the Shade Skip at the end. I was very pleased to see the one thing I could manage being the punchline, hehe.
The last part freakin killed me. I love how hornet just comes in and is like:"excuse me wth" and the knight is just there pulling an epic gamer moment to obtain the cookies
You know I had a similar concept but I drew it out and it was Hornet, The Knight, and H.K. trying to get the cookie jar. There were two endings, one is when they failed while the other was they all got a cookie.
T be fair, if I were to put the cookies on a high shelf and then come back a few minutes later to find the knight jumping on their own corpse. I think i'd have the same expression.
Summer was apparently full of great Hollow Knight animations, but ~September 20 is when RUclips actually started reccomendeding them (seriously, Home went from none to like 7 this week!) I'm surprised some people here don't know about the game, too, but suppose everyone has to find out about it at some point. Guess that's now for them!
oh my god???? this is amazing. i can say with certainty that this is the absolute greatest piece of media ever created in the history of human civilization. the tell-tale heart, the mona lisa, and minecraft bedrock nintendo switch all pale in comparison to the behemoth of quality contained inside this video file. great job!
I’m dying. This was so well made. On how the knight can’t use his speedrunning tactics to get to the jar, so he commits unalive, then spike-jumps off of his spirit.
After the victory over radiance, there was nothing left in Hallownest except a Hornet, a Hollow Knight and another Hollow Knight. The first remained normal, the second, having lost the goal, degraded to the level of a child, and the third remained disabled.
Now that I think about it, that would look strange and almost terrifying for someone like Hornet. You're literally bouncing on top of your living, moving, actual corpse and using it to reach a higher place.

I love how he throws a little tantrum

This Vessel did Shade skip
Basically
Killing himself to achieve his objective
Freaking hilarious to the response of hornet
I love animations that add game mechanics, this is so fucking funny
though once the small knight has reached their destination, they realised.... they can't eat
The Path of Pain music at the end gave me war flashbacks and made me feel like Hornet there

Those need to be some really good cookies and hornet really understimated the knight
Do they? Players tend to go for any items they can get.
The void wants, and so it takes
“You’d die for them”
My man killed himself for a cookie.
I guess he took the "path of pain"
Hornet: did you really die and beat your soul for a can of cookies?
Vessel: Yes.
the fact that you used sound effects from the actual game makes this ten times better tbh
Hornet seeing the knight fucking kill themself just to get a jar of cookies
Hollow saw them kill themself, then hornet saw the aftermath
Both were probably equally traumatized
Even during the final scene, the Knight's nail was still on its rack, yet they were usingitt
He respawned and got another.
I’m dying. This was so well made. On how the knight can’t use his speedrunning tactics to get to the jar, so he commits unalive, then spike-jumps off of his spirit.
