Oh, my, gawd, this is my new favorite Ori animation ever. I love how the Bash ability is depicted in this, it's so smooth and graceful how Ori orbits around the lamps and jumps through them without ever touching them! I also loved all of the camera shots, like Ori leaping through a portal before appearing in the background, or the camera seamlessly following her through some of them. Also the spiders being surprised by Ori escaping them right before they get washed away is funny.

[Skijaramaz]

Honestly? If it was done with minimal dialogue and more of a focus on show-don't-tell and the gorgeous visual presentation that's so core to the identity of the Ori games, I think that The Blind Forest could make an absolutely amazing animated film, 2D or CGI. This animatic right here just makes me even more convinced of that.

[MetaStarVA]

THIS IS SO WELL MADE OH MY Screw a third Ori game if we got an animated series in this exact style would be just as grand! Definitely one of the best fanmade Ori creations I've ever seen!

[Someoneidontknowudo]

Really amazing, i haven't seen fan animation for a while and it is truly amazing.

[Chrissanti]

"Impressive work there Alejandro Lozana." 👍

[devister]

An animated movie of this entire game, Or Even both games would be absolutely incredible. I've thought a lot about what that would look like for a while and this is exactly what I had invisioned

Stellar job

[Myuutsuu]

This got my heart pumping. Even after playing this part dozends of times, and not just because I had trouble with it initially, but also due to me loving it and its music so much, it still gets me excited to see the Ginzo Tree escape being featured in such a fantastic way.

[AstrumAura]

OMG! This is totally incredible!! Sometimes I had thoughts like "oh, I so love the Ginso tree, it'll be so nice to see an animatic for this part of the game. But still haven't skills to draw animatics. Maybe one day...Anyway who else still think of Ori so much and can draw it??" It's so magical to see that actually there is that person! I love how you kept all sequencing of game mechanics from the level. And your backgrounds are just standing, so full of beauty. Your work is a big inspiration for me as a beginner storyboard artist💛That's a lot of attention to make all scenes move in the rhythm of OST

[JNSStudios]

Ok i kid you not, when i first played the game, i had an idea for an animation based around this escape sequence. Then i just found this. And it has some of the same things i was envisioning in my head for what it could look like. This looks INCREDIBLE, amazing work!!

[therealfrtbite]

i love how all the enemies and bounce pads and such are all placed in the order of the actual escape, tho I would just bash every enemy and projectile lmao.

[BlusterTheBenevolent]

You really do keep the silent, graceful aspect of the original Blind Forest intact with this animatic. Including all the enemies you encounter during the original escape sequence and the special portals is a wonderful touch. The musical cue when Kuro’s eyes are revealed to the audience makes for a wonderful stinger.

[Sumys]

Теперь я жду когда вы доделаете эту анимацию до конца ^^

[bombas]

Finished the game today, what a masterpiece of a game, great soundtrack, gameplay and a heartfelt story…


Edit: Today I finished Will of the Wisps, and let’s just say…my mind was blown away again, great combat, addition of equipable abilities, NPCs, Side quests…I just realy hope Moon studios will make a third game…

[베리굳]

Never imagined anyone would still make a secondary creation about ori in 2024. Thank you so much and love it and the game. <3

[IOSARBX]

Alejandro Lozano, you're redefining what it means to create content

[deathblaizer]

This was great, brought back some neglected PTSD.

[emeraldphoenix]

We desperately need an Ori Animated Series or Movie pitched to either Netflix, Amazon Prime, Max, Hulu or Paramount+ ASAP!

[JeffreyDaGamer]

The music syncs so well with ori's actions everytime ori would use bash the music would spike

[ibrahimarticov]

One year late for this, but I'm glad I found this. I had the image running on my head since I've completed this in the game and wonder if someone could do this for real, and boy you did it perfect!

[Drjebus]

Truly thoughtful homage to the absolute best segment of the game.
