Animation vs. Arcade Games (official)

DJ's ears can't handle Qbert's potty mouth:

[LucasRPDJ]

This is funny to know how creative you get to blend multiple arcade games together. Good job! ^^

[ShortHax]

This is the Pixels movie we never knew we needed. Still, it needs more Adam Sandler

[-Random-Games-]

Alan is the only person that knows how to make group fight scenes properly. Most just have one person fight the enemy at a time, but for alan thats not the case.

Yellow:I’ve been waiting to do this since 1982

[Rdebo_]

This animation brings so much nostalgia for the old games I loved.

[Ranolog]

Red does not get the recognition he deserves. Hes been done so dirty throughout the whole series. Let the man catch even one W

[sirencloud]

4:26 love how orange saves yellow but lets red fall lol

[ZeruelMk]

Top level creativity and nostalgia in this one!👍

[Flaming_Saturn]

I really love how Alan’s sort of “defined” each stick figure’s interests aside from the Minecraft episodes, Yellow still retaining his side to him when he was making the arcade emulator.

Will we get to see more of Blue, Red, and Green’s interests flourish with FUTURE “Animator Vs” episodes? I’d love to see what happens further down the line!

Idk why but I'm loving the fact that they all put on hoodies differently, shows their different personalities!

[nautillian]

That 3D tetris was way trippier than it should've been.

Reasons why Red is absolutely iconic in this video:
- 0:08 Puts the hoodie on backwards (admit it, we've all done this once)
- 0:24 _"Whatchu dooooing?"_
- 0:39 Excited little tippy tap
- 0:54 Tries game and fails immediately
- 3:16 Just freaking GOES for it
- 3:27 Orange bumps into him and he looks back like "eXcUsE Me?"
- 3:47 Hides behind Green
- 3:51 Celebrates despite not doing anything
- 4:04 His run is _hilarious_
- 4:05 SLAMS into wall and gets separated from the others
- 4:16 Again, that freaking run
- 4:21 And again SMACKS against the wall in his frenzy to get away
- 4:21 Also grabbed a grand total of THREE points during this whole pac-man section
- 4:25 *_FACEPLANTS_* (Orange doesn't even try to catch him)
- 4:33 Hunches like a little froggy
- 5:31 "Go right- No sh- LEFT! LEFT!"
- 5:39 Again unable to land on his feet
- 6:11 Nearly gets hits by the big blue block
- 6:22 Saves his friend :)
- 6:24 NEARLY doesn't land
- 6:42 Again, I can't get over the way he runs. It's so freaking funny
- 6:46 Falls again and has to be hauled up by his friends
- 6:54 Finally lands properly on his feet
- 7:16 Tries to jump and completely fails while Blue and Green do a super well-coördinated jump together right after him
- 7:42 I really wished Red would've just swung the stick and launched Qbert away like a baseball
- 8:08 Just freaking PUNTS everything
- 10:44 Tries to swim his way out of Qbert's mouth
- 10:47 Proceeds to just lay there for like a minute
- 11:02 *Tired clapping*

Okay that was it lol Idk why I spend so much time doing this XD

[RenegadesReact]

From Donkey Kong to Pac Man. From Tetris to Pong. The memories cause an overflow of emotion that harkens me back to when I first played these games. Thank you Alan and the team for making this. It was truly an amazing experience.

[HexaflexagonFan]

8:26 idk why but i just find it so satisfying

[BasicPersonZ]

Yellow’s engineering skills has really evolved over the years. Get this stick figure into Harvard! ❤🎉

[FireyDeath]

Alan genuinely has the most powerful computer in the whole world for running at least three emulators at once, context-generated physics (with sound) and up to about 100 individuals based on human knowledge with self-learning algorithms. I'm not just gonna take the idea as just part of the fun and not massive lore

Okay, so I know it's not just Alan's computer. Maybe we could have a conspiracy or some sort of coverup...like most computers and devices are much more powerful than many independent software/hardware developers have caught of yet. I can't imagine the sheer amount of complexity the virus must have (it made Alan's computer get really hot while Alan's first computer getting destroyed by TCO and TDL didn't), but since it actually _lost_ it's clearly not very smart (you can see on Two Minute Papers how smart agents actually behave - they can do senseless incomprehensible things to achieve their goal). Whatever, there's _something_ going on here and it'd be really exciting if we got to know more about it.

This animation is so awesome, I think I’ve already watched it about 3 times by now lol, good job to everybody who made this happen :)

Again, extremely amazing animation :D

Alan has quite possibly found the most effective loophole in the entire algorithm of YouTube.
He receives an adequate amount of popularity relative to the quality of his videos (which are extremely statisfying whilst also being qualitative and entertaining), but the short intervall of time between the publication of a video and the sudden explosive virality is just extreme.
But he deserves this and I am very glad, that his videos have gotten so popular.
