"Squark is a character created by the American video game designer Arnold Handsome, Daniel Avidaniel and Ninja Brian. He is the star of the Squark fracnhise and mascot of the American video game company Squark Co. Squark is a squirrel, except really cool. He sports an epic blue and yellow baseball cap, turned around backwards, and shreds on an insanely cool skateboard of the same color scheme. Squark resides on the quantum realm, after being transported accidentally into a portal by the mad scientis, Mr. Dongsbury, while chasing after his iconic acorn. The series generally revolves around Squark trying to retrieve his acorn form the evil Electchode, a humanoid electron. Squark first appeared as the player character in Squark (1983), a platform game. Arnold Handsome and Daniel Avidaniel wanted Squark to appeal to nature lovers, thus leading to Squark's original animal-like design, rather than his more humanoid bipedal design which can be seen in Squark, the sequel to Squark. In the original Squark, Squark, would run on the ground to retrieve his acorn from the evil Electchode, while in Squark, the remake of Squark, Squark uses a skateboard. The change in tone between the games was partly due to the ppor sales of the first, and also partly due to the fact that Ninja Brian stabbed both Arnold and Daniel to death over a creative dispute with Squark's hat. Ninja Brian is now the sole owner of Squark, and Squark, the remake of Squark, as well as Squark 3D.

[@jessicastoker8932]

I liked it better when Squark used roller blades. The whole shift to a skateboard seemed more like trend-chasing than a meaningful addition. Like, movement was so fluid and snappy on the blades, but on the skateboard it felt more like controlling a cart, or a shopping cart. Not to mention, without the roller blades, he couldn't kick grenades anymore. Totally censored my boy all to appease Nintendo's family-friendly nonsense.

[@BlueJayYT]

People think the Squark iceberg goes deep, but they're really not ready for the extended universe of Dinosaurs VS Ducks. Real shame Nintendo never explored the Quackelolithic Era with some prequel entries, easily the most aesthetic and lore dense era of Dinosaurs VS Ducks.

[@Hey-Its-Dingo]

Did you not play Dinosaurs VS Ducks: Tyrannosaurus Swans on the Wii Ware? It was set in the Quackelolithic Era. I honestly wouldn't blame you if you never did, Wii Ware titles weren't the most popular, and Nintendo really didn't market it at all. Edit: Oh, you said you wanted them to explore it more, right. T-Swans wasn't a super lore heavy entry. A lot of set up, but it wasn't long enough to really give a deep dive on all the cool stuff they introduced.

2:52 I love that head movement

[@greedyProphet]

Absolutely great! Shigloo and team have absolutely killed it with this video. Also congrats on making a whisper song that somehow doesn't trigger my misophonia.

[@speckofdignity2487]

Exactly what I was thinking, I hate when whispering triggers my mesothelioma

[@ivyhearst3554]

It triggered mine, I'm really disappointed. :( I just have to watch the video on mute

[@elpaya7775]

My favourite Arin song is the one where he whispered for a loooooooooong time

[@ughitstabitha]

The jumpscares of Arin's real mouth appearing were wonderful lmao

[@GeorgeAce404]

I listen to this at least once a day

[@Zombietries]

I cant bring myself to stop replaying 0:57, its too mesmerizing

[@mistertorguehighfiveflexin5477]

Agreed.

[@billshuff3749]

Yup, need that gif lol

[@thewebcamboyz]

1:55 is also good but doesnt compare.

[@daalvaal1985]

Also at 1:52, the groovy walk and the breakdance part

Did the Nintenjas actually put up a fight against Ninja Brian? Impressive.

[@schweepy_g]

Bro Nintenjas, I'm dying over here with that one.

[@garrettbates9124]

The Nintenjas are not to be trifled with.

The song itself is great, but Rotoscoped Arin Dancing keeps bringing me back to this video.

I KNOW THAT ARTSTYLE!!!

[@MasonRodriguez-l5n]

Yeah it’s the super plerm art style duh

[@NIX-FLIX]

@@MasonRodriguez-l5n I hear the original Plerm it’s hard to get nowadays so Nintendo is intentionally creating scarcity by not giving it to us

"A hundred-and-twenty."

[@Slurmpslurmp8356]

0:13 let this be the moment ninja Brian closes his eyes for the first time.

[@Gaminboi2864]

They could get away with it since it looks like it's edited over a picture of him to make him fit a Japanese art style lol

[@RoosterLewis]

I've never seen lip synching bounce to the rythm. I cannot stop watching this

[@cookiesyruplover]

The neon segments where it feels like Arin is trying to tell you what the music in a water level sounds like but also getting way too into it, it will haunt my dreams. I'll be seeing this Nintendo Direct in my sleep. I can play Classic Plerm for a limited time at least.

[@Hylive]

Holy man Star Bomb leveled up so hard. This shit goes so hard, 11/10 . The flow and semantics are off the charts

[@desmoonbear01]

The animation in this is so beautiful i literally cannot stop watching this

[@MechTechGunna]

1:55 this breakdance animation here had no right to go this hard 😂

[@JoshG1981]

It's fire 🔥

[@daveslamjam]

it's rotoscoped!

[@egamerej]

THE BREAKDOWNS IN THIS SONG SOUND SO BEAUTIFULLY INCORRECT THAT I LOVE THEM SO MUCH, i genuinely cannot believe how much the starbomb production quality has soared during their hiatus, I can’t wait to hear what hype instrumentals the squad comes up with next. :)

[@digitherobot]

this animation is literally so nice to watch, i keep coming back again.

I love how even the animations use him.

[@Imperial_Squid]

Lol, knew I recognised Shigloo's style (that prilosec animated lives rent free in my head) incredible work as always

[@slanguages]

I don’t understand why… but I love this little hunched walk cycle from Arin 0:14

I actually wasn’t sure about the whisper rapping but that animation alone completely changed my opinion and now I can’t stop listening to this song lol. It’s kind of blowing my mind how a few seconds of animation changed a song for me lol

[@henry_alphonse]

I'm so happy they finally brought back Mario Teaches Wiping, such nostalgia☺

[@laharlkent]

Crazy to realize that in the remake they almost had Mario actually take off his overalls, till they realized they would have to make it 13+ and thins in Nintendo.

[@TheSkiv]

@Shigloo, you mad king. Going to need some Prilsosec after watching all that tight Arin dancing

[@Arisorio]

Oh my! The lyrics are already available!

[@joefiend7343]

without reading the lyrics I’m gonna make the prediction that the song is either Dan saying “oh boy is the new game on NSO (insert infamously good games here)“ and then listening a bunch of good games and then Arin going “NOPE ITS (insert shitty game here)” and then singing about why it’s great while Dan goes “Erm but what about (list of infamous good games again) and then Arin says “WHO CARES WHEN YOU HAVE (insert shitty game again)” Or the song will just be that formula but Arin is listing a bunch of bad games being added (either real bad games or just a bunch of shitty jokes on a row) and then Dan sings a ballad either about wanting a good game or just something like “Ooooooh We got so many games on NSOoooooooh”. Almost every StarBomb song is just one of them listing a bunch of bad jokes and the other one going “erm what the scallop thats not actually a good thing”. Sucks man.
