[SFM] Risk of Rain 2 - It's A Secret!

FINALLY!!! This has been a project about 3 months in the making. On and off, between college and work, approximately 200+ hours have gone into this video. This has been the hardest I've ever worked on a video and I hope it shows. I am pleased to have this video out on the eve of the 1.0 update!
Thank you to everyone in the Discord server for the support!
Song in the second half is "Secret Stage" from the BattleBlock Theater Soundtrack: • Video

[@LittleWasp]

Unrealistic: Engi would never share his bungus.

[@smolchairling4823]

As an engi main, yeah

[@papyrusplays6021]

I’m this situation, no, but what if there were 2 engi’s?

[@alternateaccount6913]

@@papyrusplays6021 one becomes the superior engie and the other one a bootleg commando

[@ItsJustVirgil]

No guys he’s standing still, so the regen is in effect. The regen works by eating the bungus, obviously, and Commando is just close enough to be in range.

[@NPC_5439]

It's true, I only share my bungus with my dog

[@alululululu]

NIPPLE LIGHTS NIPPLE LIGHTS

[@normalpolearm2]

commandos got some pretty sick nipple lights

[@Slenderguy56]

Now that you mention it, having the flashlights on your chest seems like a bad design choice. It's better to have it on your helmet.

[@depressionboi42069]

I Knew someone will say nipple lights

[@fuze7885]

exactly what i though, but i wonder if the mastery skin for commando has them

[@the_furry_inside_your_walls639]

@@normalpolearm2 They deserve those nipple lights after all the traumatic shit they've been through, poor fellas...

[@michaelhenriksen7359]

Reminds me of a easter egg in the first Risk of Rain. On the final stage, underneath Providance's arena there is a small gap accessible with Hopoo feathers/jetpack, in there you will find some golems vibing to a ghetto blaster.

[@justnuttedinasock2054]

“Ghetto blaster” are you talking about their boombox?

[@TheMaddestMan1]

@@justnuttedinasock2054 that is exactly what he is talking about

[@Keykoh_TV]

which reminds me of the easter eggs in RoR2... on the distant islands in the area you go to obliterate (through the celestial portal)

[@TmanTheTdog]

@@Keykoh_TV Oh yeah the *literal* easter eggs

[@TheCabalOnMars]

They actually referenced that in a portion of the trailer for the game, they had a couple of golems breakdancing.

[@endermcetherman]

I just imagine Engi was with them the entire time, they just left him to deal with all the enemies while they went to get the loot themselves without telling him.

[@wachowski3124]

how else will he hoard all the fungus?

[@endermcetherman]

@@wachowski3124 True

[@jetpackdog3427]

No, that was likely Merc.

[@Shifsabre]

This engi seems pretty chill, I'd probably guess he was putting some turrets and mines down outside before coming down. Only Huntress could use the bands anyway.

[@kanna5303]

Imagine if this is what the final boss could be like

[@kingofblu2067]

Well for the final boss, you ARE gonna need a bugger uke-

[@kanna5303]

KingOfBlu Haha, that’s a good one! If only ukuleles would be useful against Mithrix.

[@kingofblu2067]

Lauren C. Maybe if the Chimera get close to him

[@kanna5303]

@@kingofblu2067 yeah, or get two Mithrix's with Artifact of Swarms on so they can chain lightning each other on hit

[@chickuna7854]

Mythrix: Master of beats

[@Tivallia9010]

Runald and Kjaro just wanted to vibe, until the Mercenary nation attacked

[@knightowl2407]

From the tone set at the beginning, I expected this to be a serious SFM. I was really caught off guard when they started singing. It was amazing.

[@rodnexafla843]

Runald and kjaro greeting me after I spent 2 hours rolling a clay pot up a hill:

[@poke_sas]

Gotta love how it's the merc with all the loot, and the enginner got some bungus only because the merc didn't want it.

[@mandridhugh9555]

I did not expect to hear that song again.

[@AlexanderTerry]

I saw the title and HOPED that this was what this was. Absolutely brilliant animation.

[@vamp1310]

Same!

[@adenperkins9719]

Hearing the secret song after years was a big nostalgia hit that I didn’t even know existed. Thank you but damn you cause now I have to replay battleblock theatre.

[@Shifsabre]

God, I feel bad for Runald. He just wanted to lay down some bars, and Genji over here had to ruin it. Just look at his face in the ending

[@jorgenbluered2151]

I am in shock. You had me. Now how does a elder Lemurian feel after being taken out of the funk? Great animation, youve set a standard, A marker. Its high, but now others have something to have a goal for.

[@anaconda6016]

Engie snacking is a mood, and probably my absolute fav part. Veyr very well done man absolutely lovely

[@steffangls]

why was this in my recomended and why wasnt it sooner

[@robibofbankshire4056]

I was hoping I would hear it, and I was right. Thank you for this.

[@heinrichsilister4420]

I love that this is the track that runs in the secret levels of Battleblock Theater! :D Great Choice!

[@krishshres241]

Yo, Elder Lemurian spittin' bars and slayin' mercs! That's some good shit dude! I know it takes a lotta time and focus to animate these albeit short videos, but keep doing what you're doing if you can. It's great! Liked and subscribed. Hope it helps you grow and reach out to more of the RoR2 fans who i'm sure will enjoy your videos.

[@wachowski3124]

Every time you make a sfm it keeps getting better and better, cant wait to see where it goes!

[@goatbern510]

Take a long deserved rest my friend and enjoy 1.0

[@remervkeberb1128]

I may not know the reference material but the sheer heart and soul poured into this makes me ecstatic. Fantastic work.

[@vesteddrop1300]

YOOO!! DIDN'T KNOW KJARO AND RUNALD WERE CHILL LIKE DAT!

[@blueyandicy]

commando's nipple lights LMAO

[@fefic881]

Ah, my favorite elemental gay lizards. Nice SFM.

[@vlaamscherp]

This is immensely high-quality work, kudos!

[@SakuyalzayoiTheMaid]

i would pay mr hoopoo himself 23 bungus to see the breakdancing golems return to ror2 in some random ass near impossible to access place

[@zackozga2411]

Be quiet everyone! They are explaining the Risk of Rain lore!

[@zensmith749]

I'm getting weird Starcraft 1 vibes from 0:20-0:26, something about the lights on the Commando and the way the camera is shifting reminds me of those old mission cutscenes.

[@briishcabbage568]

"Man, they never listen to the whole song." "I know, right?" 1:53

[@streamer8633]

Never realized commando had nipple flashlights

[@bq1013]

i cant be the only one who wishes runy and kuj spawned with items like the arti. I mean theyve got all those looted chests

[@Endet_]

Did you make this map?

[@101Destructor]

Technically no. I merely recreated it in SFM using the assets from the game.

[@jetpackdog3427]

Why, Merc... Why would you do that...

[@Kano_Productions]

Havent heard this song for a while

[@eldkfwkd321]

Huntress is THICC.

[@DonutV22]

I'm wondering how that one guy thought it would be a good idea to dislike this.

[@llsr7359]

Discovered your channel recently. This is insanely lovely. I'm definitely staying.

[@mr.sandwich8178]

Well...... that was unexpected.

[@leagooo3891]

Spotify when?

[@zer0_ta1ent24]

got the flashlight nips

[@Polaris5664]

unrealistic: None plays commando, they are too weak.

[@Afflat0x]

oh man, I wasn't expecting that at all lol. Nice

[@carmalizedvegetation5096]

holy shit this is so good. I'm gonna model like this one day hopefully

[@MajorNoob]

wth lmao by the way, good job on the animation it was really smooth this time, keep it up!

[@fv4202x]

my favorite sfm. That extremely confident walking animation on mercenary, I can replay that forever.

[@The_WumboTM]

Would have turned out different if the survivors pressed Q

[@MisterCake]

i'm gonna pretend they only killed Mercenary and spared Huntress, Commando & Engineer cus' they were chill

[@magic1l757]

1:00 scary music, epic stuff and than this:

[@magic1l757]

atleast merc has tried it...

[@lesymon8483]

Huntress: hmm look at this place, i wonder what lies beyond... Commando *NIPPLE LIGHTS, ACTIVATE*

[@electroplayz2141]

Honestly, as a man who always attacks velkhana and kushala daora in MHW, i could never harm these guys in this situation.

[@docholiday4129]

Honestly this wouldn’t even surprise me if it appeared in game. Risk of rain 2 is all about wacky secrets

[@HukoBungo]

I love this video with every atom in my body.

[@tomkaidalov6345]

I knew I just knew it’s gonna be this song from battleblock theater. I fucking knew it

[@DodgeThatAttack]

The amount of based energy coming from this video lights up my soul

[@mkitsie1780]

This would be better if commando tried to take some bungus but engineer quickly moves so he gets none

[@thesun5112]

I like the little detail in mercenary bumping engineer and the bustling fungus stops lol.

[@soldierred5179]

Huntress got whole bakery

[@ALMarkAZ1990]

Of course Mercenary will try to kill alone... At least THATS realistic lol.

[@tcaDNAp]

what kind of music do you listen to? It's... complicated

[@cindymarie3245]

I dont know what i expected, but it sure as hell wasnt battleblock music

[@salvoix86]

THICC.... wait, not her, the other guy!

[@smoka-cola2014]

Obligatory comment of this video to boost its chance of making it into the algorithm spotlight

[@antlee3588]

Stamper, what an unexpected yet lovely surprise.

[@GhostlyEnTurist]

Wait...why commando has lights on his nipples?

[@BorntoOrnn]

Man, I miss Battleblock Theater.

[@frosty1328]

I was expecting many things, but I was not expecting that.

[@baksoBoy]

holy shit why is this so incredibly well animated??

[@frylord_krispy]

omg Battleblock Theater music brings me life

[@d0navan440]

Is the left lizard possesed by viego or something ?

[@USER_S4V4NT]

that song gives me so much nostalgia

[@o_--]

unrealistic a random beatle didnt press the button

[@yamnbam4346]

Dude I love the sound they make when they get angry

[@dreamhollow]

I was really hoping that's what this was leading up to.

[@NeonBlue27]

I was expecting it, but then it didn't happen, but then it did.

[@klortikterra4423]

i love how the blips are just them talking.

[@XiloTheOdd]

im surprised i didnt see this a year ago. kinda glad i did today.

[@friendlyoldpieceofapoppedp711]

Oh my GOD IS THAT BATTLEBLOCK THEATRE???

this is very epic!! thank you for this :)

We both got buckets of bungus, want do it?

LIGHT NIPPLES!!!!! 0:22

Another good SFM, I like the effort you've put into it. Looks even better than the last one.

Battle Block OST is a vibe tho
