HWFWM Trailer

My audio publisher has produced an animated trailer with bit of a PS2 game feel to it. They'll be using it in marketing materials, but if anyone is interested, you can get an early look here before it gets listed and becomes searchable.

I almost thought it was DND playable. I love the Art!!! I wish there was an animated version for the stories. ( Also would love a palamustus TTRPG ) would be a blast to see a essence and random ability roll table.

Jason Brown

Looks like a fun vr game oh wait it’s for a book still lit trailer 😅

Hopperz_Strikers

I want a tv series or movie. Animated series would be fine but this book series deserves a bigger audience. Just saying

Bo meckel

Just AWESOME dude! Loved it! But the no pants and sausage thing will prevent me from showing to my daughters lol....

Andre A

Fits the mood and all, but I think the no pants scene needed to clarify the fact it was Jason a little more. As it is, it really isn't clear the barbecue guy was the same as the ninja with starry cape guy.

Jemini

Might be my fault scaring the marketing team :). He did say it was a sneak leak. Might try again in a hour and a quarter form now based on what he said.

Rajani Isa

I’m getting the same message. Not sure why

Odd, tells me it’s private. Am I missing something?

Artman

So when can I play this game? Lol

Erik Bekke

You can share it AFTER 12am PST, i.e. midnight Thursday morning in the US west coast.

Shirtaloon

Mind if we share it at all? Or wait on that until the marketing team goes public with it?

Rajani Isa

He's wearing flip flops though. :(

Shannon Bryce

NO PANTS!!!

Shane clark

Which is a Watchmen reference in itself

David Fletcher

The cape image unfortunately makes me think of the “No Capes” scene from the Incredibles…. https://youtu.be/E6SymBZL_vg

Zpeed3

Awesome f***ing awesomeness

Z.W.Heald

Pretty good! But needed more images of friends shaking their heads in horror :)

Mark Taylor

There are to many things/pieces that make it feel to me like the animator just wanted to do their own thing with the loosest of outlines of the story, something feel off in pretty much every scene, the hydra does not feel like it matches either of the 2 Jason fought, even the image of greenstone feels off.

Scott McCarthy

No, that is another part the animator kind of diverged too much on, Jason does not dress with a mask like a generic fantasy assassin.

Scott McCarthy

That was awesome!

Bo Beaulieu

Love it Shirt! Cool to see Jason in a different medium! Keep up all your fantastic work man!

Dan Anderson

If it looks like this? Hard pass.

Hayden Leech

This is so weird.

Hayden Leech

Well done.

Robert Hegi

Love it!

Nice. That was excellent

PaigeFault

I agree, the moving artwork is nice but you gotta be careful that it doesn't give people an incorrect idea about jason's skillset and stuff.

Doodlyboy15

I agree with the others “well done!” It does have the feel of Jason 👍🏻

Robert Knight

Looked neat, but where are the daggers? He looks like generic caster-bro.

Adam Beattie

I agree with everyone who has said an Animated Show would be a good thing. I would support this kickstarter

JewBot9000

animated series of HWFWM would be the best!!!

I would not be apposed to a animated series a few years from now. Maybe a kickstarter?

Tali

Hahaha nice!

DeviantSalivations

Yoooo that's so good! Can we get a full season of that?

Dig Bickens

terrible depiction of Jason. His chin isn't pointy enough

Nematrec

Did Gordon make this?

Sooo chuni

david fulmer

Tue essence system seem likening would be hard to implement fully (how powers tend to flow into each other's like Humphrey's storage was it leading into his summoning). But would make for an amazing game if implemented properly. Though many would not like the random chance.

Scott McCarthy

Very cool. I dig the sort of cell into the spider verse vibe it has going on

Brian J Martin

The music should be more an 80's action series intro...

Scott McCarthy

Lol. It feels a little silly, which I can appreciate. A bit of that Borderlands vibe going.

SimpleGreen

I would play that game

Nick

Really good. Should grab a lot of attention in the LitRPG world. I’m surprised marketing didn’t force you to have the “sexy babe” addition. I bet they tried. One negative comment, the music is unbalanced. For that song and the overall feel of Jason, more bass (driving feel) and less of the guitar (feels off). Good idea bouncing it off us.

Will Mill

Speaking on games, I've been playing a lot of top-down isometric games lately and think that HWFWM would work perfectly in it, with all the massive spells and abilities that go off.

GrizzLeo

To big, that is a sausage, which many areas do grill un some way.

Scott McCarthy

I‘m confused. Wouldn’t it be easy to give specific scenes (in the books) that describe his powers well, to the animators? I can easily understand not wanting to read multiple books, but well described fight scenes from the book should do it, shouldn’t it?

Mantiqore

THOSE ARE SAUSAGES! On a side note I really enjoyed the intro. Being old myself those graphics take me back to when such things were cutting edge around 1998.

John Donovan

He went full chuuni on occasions

Mantiqore

Hot dogs on the barbie? Heresy.

Robert Nugent

I don’t know any Aussie that “grills” snags on a charcoal barbie like in that bud, with a fork. Jason would use tongs, and he would know to clang the tongs at least twice before you can use them. Otherwise it’s good stuff. Cheers mate.

Chris Smith

I admit that whoever did it put lots of work and on its own it is good but not for this novel. Yeah It is nit-picking so feel free to dismiss the rest. First (and personal) I don't like the attire, purely aesthetical point and it doesn't seem like the description of the book but more like a generalization. Second, the lightning power... either complete bullshit or let's say that it's his finisher that does transcendental damage however he casted it to free space, it looks cool but this ties to 3rd Third, he himself calls him a knife guy and yet he always appears casting magic and fighting from the front. Sure, he uses magic, sure he faces his enemies but either he evades or teleports to not enter a frontal confrontation which is exactly the opposite of what looks in the video. Sorry, for me this is a hard pass, the video looks cool but it doesn't really go well with the novel. I do admit however that the video on its own is good and well made

Will Iam

Absolutely loved it!!!

Avi Singh

That’s great promotional material. I really don’t like that they did not use the same art style for the cloak, instead opting for realistic space images. I think I space doesn’t even look like that outside from rendert telescope images. I may be wrong there. I also don’t know of a better option.

Typhen

Am I the only one that is disappointed that we didn't get to see his chin?

Monadologist

Not gonna lie, that really makes me want a game now, even more than I did before.

Hhhhmmmm 2d platformer like dead cells?

That animation style is low key amazing! Any chance they could animate some favorite scenes?

ummm, Love the books and audio.... but this is just weird. Which I guess means it fits perfectly.

Robert Phipps Jr (Perren d'Wolff)

That was awsome

Because I'm almost done writing for the day.

Shirtaloon

My brain kept expecting Heath to pop in at the end of it with 'G'day mate', but overall it was pretty good, definitely thought the Naruto running was funny.

Bunny

Ok, that was pretty awesome

Jason Watson

That could be his finisher that deals transcendant damage ?

Nicolas Hebert

That was fantastic

Did they just make him Naruto-run...he's chuuni but not that chuuni

TerrestrialOverlord

I tried to get the animators to make it more like his actual powers (and did, compared to early versions) but they didn't want to read all the books. My favourite bit is the cloak, which has a real rift-in-space feel.

Shirtaloon

Why and how is he summoning lightning?

Talespinner Lore

Thanks Shirt! Phenomenal Trailer, now i have to relisten to Books 1-3…

Maybe not, just some multi-media marketing. Podium does this with a few series, exfor has one for instance.

Brett Menzel

Does this mean animated series coming soon?

Dave

Very cool , next step full Netflix show ?

Bit of Naruto running at the end...

Definitely wasn't expecting that but I like it. It is a cute little video in a funky art style.

Kevin M

Speak of the devil. Hahaha. It's good :)

Undead PettinZoo

The no pants and no worries part got me 😂😂

Amazing! The no pants got me 😂

Shirt why are u posting at midnight?

John Butt

Totally awesome, love the look and feel of this. No pants barbecue all the way...

Silverceres

Alright that was random as fudge but I dig it.

Michael Deleon

oh neat!
