Excellent work on the Godzilla: Save the Earth video FilmCore It looked exactly like the original I'm looking forward to seeing what you can come up with on your own Plus I have an idea for you whenever you have the time Try to make a fight video between Godzilla and Gamera when you can and if you want to Keep up the good work From one of your fans ✌&🤘

I never played any of the Pipeworks Godzilla games, but the sheer amount of passion and commitment to this recreation is astounding, even going as far as doing motion capture for Godzilla’s model for authenticity! You went above and beyond with your animation skills and it shows! This is your best Godzilla fan animation by far! 😱

[@derrickrobertson2317]

Oh man, u missed out they were the best, and even more fun with your friends

[@TopsyTriceratops]

I loved this intro so much as a kid, I'd even let the game sit so I could watch the intro turn on over and over again. Your efforts are beyond compare; brand new processors, remaking/ updating models, custom animations, using a motion capture suit, AND JUST SO MUCH MORE. I cannot praise your efforts enough, good sir. I sincerely hope this pays off bigtime, not sure how, but I hope it happens!

For being an awesome human being and I can't wait to see what you'll have in-store for us Daikaiju fans in the future.

[@bigmuscleguy9694]

You really gonna go with your own Godzilla project for the future? Hell to the yeah, man! Can't wait to see it!

[@94jetsfan]

I'm not sure if you know but there's a mod called Godzilla: Save the Earth Melee which is basically like a revamp of the original game with more fluid movements, updated models and eventually they plan on adding in characters that weren't in the original game. Definitely worth looking into and keeping tabs on, looks fun asf!

[@myleswelnetz6700]

No bulky rubber suit needed.

[@genesisraptus42666]

I think that if Pipeworks ever makes remakes of the old games, they should put you in charge because that was fantastic!

[@3Entropy]

And potential for game to be on switch consoles, just saying nostalgic selection of games on switch...would b nice addition to have game to be revamped in visuals.. childhood memories clashing through reminds me of rampage and primal rage.. good games

[@nicks288]

I played this game in 2004 and loved the intro cutscene so much. Seeing this in 2023 is surreal.

[@JackWallace-ig4nv]

Ok. This is why they should remake it right now. I love this. Brought me back my childhood game when I played this with my cousin.

[@TheGrandKoopa]

I've always liked how all the monsters are causing some kind of damage to the city or trying to attack Godzilla, but then Gigan is just kinda flying around like "WHEEEE" 😂

[@citrusreality64]

Its nice to know thats theres still a dedicated community and fans to these games, they really captured the spirit of Godzilla back then, and are the best Godzilla games ever made. I just remember having so much fun playing them on emulators on my computer. Hopefully someday we'll get a new game thats a sequel to them, made by the same developer. We deserve a good Godzilla game, and we havent gotten it since 2007.

[@matthewgramz3648]

Ditto on All Monsters Attack being a good movie. It's only downfall is all the stock footage. The manga adaptation has some cool stuff not in the film like a fight with Gorosaurus.

[@alco_the_crocodile]

@@matthewgramz3648 Yay! Agree with you Matthew ^_^ I think a lot of fans can relate to Ichiro. How he empathizes with Minya is charming, even monsters face their own problems. I like to believe seeing things from Ichiro's mind helps encourage more communication between viewers, especially those who feel they struggle alone. Everyone has their own story to learn & grow from

[@EduardoMartinez-ff1gs]

Bro, if one day they make a remastered or remake of this game they should hire you to be a collaborator. The truth is that your work as an animator is impressive and even more so knowing that you do the animations by yourself.

[@LightningZetton]

This was amazing dude! that trailer was best godzilla game trailer imo and you made it look even more amazing in this video. nice job bro

[@GunlessSnake]

Pretty amazing! However, I do have one point of criticism: there's a certain stiffness to your animation compared to the original. This is most evident in the Kiryu part where Kiryu sorta just stands there for a bit after getting beaten in the beam battle. The original, despite its age, had a bit more smooth flow with the micro-movements of the main monsters.

[@Unitedtribute]

It always amazes me what one person with so much passion can do.

[@elpinchishen2521]

[@jimlahey1326]

This is sick dude! The attention to detail to the animations and keeping them faithful to the original cutscene is fantastic. Only thing I could suggest to make it more similar is to add a more aggressive camera shake during explosion and footsteps, adds more weight to everything.

[@soupbruh487]

I've Been watching your stuff since you release the EVOLUTION of GODZILLA: Size Comparison video and I'm amazed by how far you've come!
