This is a beautifully made video! You have knocked it out of the park in terms of concept, build style, and the animators did a beautiful job too. So cool.

[@th3pooka]

Thanks for letting me help create your vision for this! Going to be so glued on every episode!

[@impulseSV]

The "comic book" style turned out so good! You crushed it as always Pooks!

[@Chriscsg89]

Haven't finished the Episode yet, just saw this short story. You did such an amazing job animating this! You really nailed the comic book style!

[@ForU2nVPRO]

Great job on the animation Pooka! You took the already amazing short story by Impulse to the next level!

[@the_otter_king6629]

Love The Lore!!! Excellent Execution!!! 🎉

[@nasiskahn]

Pooka it looks so Amazing! I'm glad you got to experiment in a different style then you normally do. So awesome! Thank you for that.

[@HeyStack17]

this is going to be epic. Suggestion: player should have a rare chance to find a bdubs clock. with the bdubs clock the player could drop it off at the generator, to extend the timer by a set amount.

[@pickledonions256]

Omg this is so creative

[@MotherTrece]

Really like this idea!

[@user-xv1cs9mm9d]

Yea!

[@michaelpeebs]

'Uh-oh, time to shreep' 'Time to shreep' tokens are an absolute shout.

[@PrismaticPixie]

Yes!

[@totallyNotOKguys]

Yes, AI apocalypse/revolution has been done again and again. But I think what is unique about your concept (other than it's a game, within a story, within a game!) is that the main focus is not on the revolution... It's the aftermath. The fight has already happened. The AI already defeated. The true story, the one we will get to experience, live through, is how the survivors pick up the pieces (literally and figuratively) of what is left.

[@th3pooka]

Yes! Love that this is the angle

[@TheBoxyEmu]

Like fallout

[@racingintherains]

Yes! I don’t think it’s an overdone concept but it is very common, but this is the “how do we rebuild, what do we do now after it’s over and we scraped by?” part of the story, and I can’t wait to see Impulse and Bdubs build it up!

[@owenbegowin9335]

“Let’s see what this disk has..” * plays disk * Ad: “KZbin premium is ad free KZbin, aaaaannnnd” It’s ad-ception lol

[@impulseSV]

LOL! Gotta love KZbin's auto-placed ads 😂

[@TheRealYeller]

Literally the only reason I don't even care about turning on ads on my channel. If I can't dictate when and where the ads pop up, and at least have a say on what SHOULDN'T pop up, then i'd think about it, but KZbin has overdone the ads

[@hofstetterjon]

Same

[@RedmondBarryII]

​@yellerthc6010 this is why adblock exists. On mobile brave browser has it build in.

[@Son-of-Gondor]

⁠@@impulseSVJust to clarify, it ain’t auto-placed. Whatever algorithm runs this thing times ads *way* too perfectly. It’ll always be at an (in)opportune time, either right at a break, right before a reveal, etc. It’s not random. It is controlled, if only by an algorithm. Edit: I made a mistake. Where he said “auto-placed,” I understood “random.” I’m sorry about that.

[@danieljoseph7188]

A good lore tidbit would be that the residents call it Pulse as a shorthand, that way you can have your cake and eat it too

[@Werewolf914]

That works and it's realistic like how everyone calls Las Vegas just Vegas or Salt Lake City just Salt Lake

[@SnyperMK2000JclL]

Remember to NOT have windows on the exposed portions of the Bunker in the mountian side... you already established that the Bunker dwelling citizens have no idea that the catastrophe is over, so if there was windows on the bunker then clearly they would be able to see its over. Dont want any plot holes or continuity errors yah know.

[@Diviknight]

You should let Skizz name all the generator parts. Things like 'nooch" etc. 😁

[@impulseSV]

[@austin-1993]

When you build up the interior of the power plant, don't forget to include the corpse of Max as well as the AI bot that killed him.

[@thenopequeen]

Depending on how long it's been, should ut be a skeleton with some interesting cyber implants?

[@mikeyb257]

I was thinking the same thing. A skeleton would be cool. Also a bunch of fried AI robots scattered across the city.

[@RKFWalter]

Thank you for the kind words! Happy to see my door being put to good use 😀

[@YeahThatllDo]

Respect for going above and beyond to get the storyline, voice acting and animation sorted. I have one question (I assume you've already thought about this) if the power goes back on won't all the AIs also turn on? Might I be so bold as to suggest having one of the tasks being to deactivate the robots dotted around the city? While they're completing all the other tasks they have to for example press a button on every robot they see to ensure they don't turn on... there could be a minimum needed to be deactivated and allows bonus points (if you're having that) for any excess.

[@impulseSV]

Sounds like a perfect mini-game to add! Run around the city and find them all to deactivate! Maybe while ravagers are wandering around the city as well? 🤔

[@racingintherains]

There could be a piston tape to have the “power cells” pushed up and breakable - not sure which block would be best for that, I think end rods can be pushed? And the game is the robots start powering up and you have to smash their power cells before they can!

[@xionic1194]

​@@impulseSV To be honest this is what I thought the main game for the city was going to be when you revealed it was a minigame area, something like an expanded version of Ravager's Run from season 6 where you have to dodge ravagers or wardens to reach the other minigames and do various other tasks

[@SilverDeath12]

EMPs short circuit electronics, especially computer systems. If the EMP encompassed the entire city, the robots' processors would be fried, and a city sized EMP is possible especially in a cyberpunk future. The robots could be going rampant from the short circuit if Impulse wants to keep the game idea.

[@dbseamz]

@@SilverDeath12 Maybe combine the rampaging short-circuited robots idea with the ravager idea, and retexture ravagers to look robotic? I don't know if HC has the same texture mod/datapack that Empires did, where you could change the texture of one mob without making every mob of that species look the same...just retexturing ravagers with a regular resource pack would mess with the look of Frogger.

[@forgotn42]

I actually like the idea of the water column in the escape tunnel staying. It makes it seem like a piece of city infrastructure that they couldn't get around, so they just had to build the tunnel around it and deal with it in their bid to escape the rogue AI. It's a nice bit of environmental storytelling.

[@nasiskahn]

Ya I was thinking the same thing.

[@Orangyy_]

Impulse wrote a STORY?? AND IT WAS ANIMATED!?!? I love all of this lore :D edit: apparently it's ChatGPT and now I'm very disappointed

[@PromptCriticalJello]

And it's one of the better narratives that i've seen in the last decade or so.

[@AcerNet1007]

@@PromptCriticalJelloIt sound like Chat-GPT… It used a lot of fancy words that that AI uses… I have generated enough stories for fun to recognize AI

[@laurafrakinroslin]

@@AcerNet1007in streams he’s said it was a ChatGPT thing, don’t know why he’s saying he wrote it now. I wish he had written it. Badly written is better than computer generated k

[@SeriousAlexUsername]

@@AcerNet1007 I WAS LOOKING FOR SOMEONE THAT NOTICED! This 100% is Chat-GPT diction and structure. Ex: labyrinth, symphony, and amid. There are just a bunch of uncommon buzzwords that the AI frequently uses. The story's plot might have been impulses, but he definitely got help writing it.

[@SteStar7]

Ironic for a story about defeating AI

[@charlieboreland6238]

That story is…amazing! Playing fun minigames around the vibrant city to become the hero of PixelPulse Valley’s story is exactly how I would’ve written it! The idea of a cybernetic takeover is perfect for what it needs to be, engaging and interesting but also a clear enough idea to convey to hermits quickly. I’m very excited to see how this goes! If we have a game in the metro system and the centrepiece in the generator, maybe you’ll make a skyscraper-concrete jungle parkour game, or even a game featuring an old, run-down business in one of the streets? I am very impressed that you have managed to give yourself an instantly intriguing storyline that ties into building, redstone and game design with so many unique ideas and possibilities! If I didn’t consider myself a dedicated Impulse fan before, I certainly do now :) o7

[@JunOhMyGod]

The short story segment is on par with Joel’s intros, and that’s saying a lot 😳 Edit: I fear it’s better. I fear this cyber-dwarf ate.

[@ryanevans5984]

I am not someone who comments much but a "like" is not enough to express how much I enjoyed the video and the story. Very cool!! I hope you are feeling better soon Impulse. Thanks for everything you do to bring us new and interesting content.

[@kittyshippercavegirl]

the AI were justified in their actions tbh. if you make servant robots self aware, you deserve what you get

Secret tunnel 🎵 In the mountains 🎵

[@dexterm2003]

That was my exact thought! Definitely one of my favorite bops. He needs to make rendition of that and have it play at some point while walking the secret tunnel.

[@ninjasuperman9538]

This whole season is awesome. Implule you did a hell of a job on this lore. I was happy enough just getting to see the amazing builds but this is something else

[@TheAlfak]

Not by a call of notification, but by a call of heart

[@gogotrololo]

Bro, this is why I watch hermitcraft!!! The passion for making Minecraft content from the hermits is astounding, inspiring!! It's downright wonderful

[@recurvestickerdragon]

idea: as the hermits reactivate more and more systems, you could have some of the robots turn on, both for classic surprise attack shenanigans AND moral dilemmas (such as if one is friendly and doesn't hold it against them, but the population still wants robo blood)

[@cosmicsilhouette3858]

That would be far harder to pull off. Because they don't have access to command blocks. Granted you could make it a mini-boss; mini-game fight with target blocks.

[@trash__queen]

I love this idea!

[@thalliu]

For the Emergency snowball, you should have 1 with a snowball 1 or 2 without a snowball and a pan of glass on the ground to show that it's been used

[@diarmuidohalloran3668]

DoublePulse Valley would be amazing, bdouble00 and impulse,

[@impulseSV]

Brilliant! 🤯

[@gustavnordqvist2678]

The walkway to the bunker reminds me of the bunker hospital in Budapest. Adding some rooms for hospital beds, cooking, an office could bring a really cool feeling to the path. Lore wise that could be an area where the people of the city went into hiding.

[@nickilew22]

love the idea of the city coming back to life when the generator is turned back on! i bet there is some serious armor stand magic that would really bring it to life kinda like the moving armor stands in scarland last season. would be fun to see cleo too (:

[@sorenwood5395]

Nice Rush reference. Probably old enough that it goes above most of your community’s head (or age), but I see you hahaha.

[@impulseSV]

😊

[@BivloBubbings]

I love Rush! One of my fave bands--though now I'm more partial to Ween ;) got so excited when I saw 2112!

[@RonnieN1995]

Yeah I immediately spotted it. Makes sense Impulse likes Neil Peart!

[@sammichesnstuff]

I came to the comments to see if anyone else spotted the Rush reference!! My fave band for sure. ❤

[@jediping]

Awesome work by Pooka and Toab and Impulse!

[@Timelord79]

The tunnel looks reaaallly cool! Great design. One suggestion, though. Maybe remove all those frog lights in this case, and have light as sparse and the tunnel as gloomy as possible. Except when full city power is restored the hero can flip a big and heavy lever and all the main lights turn on. So redstone lamps or copper bulbs would do. Or if you want to use froglights, some piston switcheroo?

[@GamerGump]

Pooka knocked it out of the park as always. Excitement level now at 100%.

[@JunoCuypers]

to me the large city, or whatever won't be used for the minigames, always seemed perfect for some kind of hunger games battle between the hermits, using limited resources (such as bows or crossbows with only little ammo, near-broken diamond armor and weapons) and odd enchantments that force the players to interact with pvp differently. the verticality of the buildings would work perfectly for that!

[@malktheyellowdino5456]

There’s lore for the city! Oh this is going to be great.

[@davidsayas5775]

What if in the lore, the people who escaped to the bunker, latter on emerge and start from scratch a new city, Joel's Japan cyber city

[@kierianiis]

I like that!

[@EvesterBee]

The bop and go water stream, it might look cool if you just make it look like a water pipe!? I can imagine a cramped tunnel full of pipes and wires cus they don’t expect to use it. Very cool story and animation!

[@Its_Over_Anakin]

Oh wow, Scar's advertisement for his shop actually matches his shop design just perfect *chefs kiss* wow, just wow!

[@cloudyysage]

I would suggest a few food stalls scattered throughout the city because the player will need food after putting all their items in a chest.

[@chrisdierking5108]

So... a few questions: 1. When you get a few items before your time runs out, what do you do with those? Since the requirements are random each run, the stuff you collect from one run will not necessarily be the stuff you need in the next. What's to stop someone from collecting each item independently, starting the clock and then turning the required ones in right away? 2. What is the reward? You implied that this is the sort of thing that ends once the first person is able to successfully complete the entire game by "bringing power back to the city." Which seems to track given that this sounds like a herculean feat to have to master every challenge before being able to even possibly finish in time. Timers on top of timers! Maybe the grateful citizens might erect a giant statue of the winner in the center of the city? 3. With all of these larger, season long games: Mission Possible, The murder mystery game, The return of TCG, etc. is there a concern that there might be too many things going at once to possibly give all of them the attention they deserve? Or have the hermits talked about the timing for each of these things so that they each get their time to shine during the course of the season? Pixel Pulse Valley feels like a Grand Finale in that regard given the time taken to think out and build each game.

[@electra310]

The comic is wonderful and steals the show, but man that door is beautiful.

[@AmphibiousCreature876]

I’m watching these like 2 months late but I just want to say it always surprises me how dedicated all the hermits are. Nothing is ever half done and it’s always maximum effort when they decide to do something. Something about these huge builds, especially underground, is how absolutely grindy it is. And a large part of me admires that in every single one of the hermits. Obviously everyone does it in different ways but if anything it makes it even more incredible that everyone is so unique but similar in certain ways.

[@neroxyx3085]

I love the game concept! Especially love how despite being single player, it can be played competitively or in cooperation together with other hermits

[@stefansauvageonwhat-a-twis1369]

Oooh, the city lights turning full on is gonna be awesome

[@MB-jv3fw]

you could build some sort of ventilation system in the secret tunnel and bunker. the people travelling need fresh and filtert air to breath

[@LoserQueen007]

Also - just wanted to say that your flexibility with staying within a theme without every build feeling monotonous is incredible! Everything feels so connected but they’re not copy-paste by any means!

[@captaintactless6679]

I'd of left the water tube, turned it into a support pillar, add more down length of tunnel... But, maybe that's last build brain... tunnel looks amazing

[@thetubemz937]

Maybe you could make an "Archive" building where players need to "repair the history records" by answering trivia questions. Or they need to scour endless rows of shelves to find the answers to fictional questions about Pixel Pulse City

[@3r4cha]

the lore was done so well!! the story, animation and voice over came together perfectly and has made me EVEN MORE excited for this season :D

[@LoserQueen007]

This whole system is SO CLEVER!!!!! This will make the city replayable as there are so many variations of the games they have to do! The lore gives the games a sense of urgency and purpose and I can definitely see the other hermits having a ton of fun with this! I’ve already seen so much amazing support from some of the other hermits and it’s just so sweet and wonderful! Impulse - glad you had a great vacation, and we’re so happy you’re back and ready to rock (and or) roll on this amazing project for the server!

[@ellie-angel9254]

From someone who has a Bachelor’s in creative writing: That story was 10/10; sometimes things are cliche because they’re fun concepts! What’s important is that you take it and make it yours, make it new, and you definitely have! Especially because it’s just a backstory for something a lot bigger! I’ve been building a cyberpunk city of my own inspired by you, and I definitely can’t wait to see where you take this!

[@darkskull1-132]

Jevin turning Scar's shop into a giant smiley right as it's opening so all the Hermits can see it is some top tier prankster skill 🔥

[@Annoyance1969]

Maybe keep the water column in the tunnel, and add a few other obstacles to make it feel like a runied/abandoned tunnel with stuff lying around everywhere

[@Ithenna]

When you started playing your backstory for the city, I thought at first that you were going to have the hermits play Maxx instead of a random adventurer to turn on the city again. Playing as Maxx, it makes sense to have a timer and a need to run about the city looking for parts to bring to the generator room (you'd be assembling the emp instead of the generator in that case), and it even makes sense to have the player run the metro course last like a race from the bots to reach the generator before they do. The version you wrote is good too, but I feel like it's a better opportunity for a multiplayer version of the game (maybe 2 or 4 players), where the returning citizens need to rebuild, all the courses need to be run for parts, and players can cooperate by strategizing who will run what courses to achieve the best time. With enough players, that could possibly be turned into a team battle where each team runs against each other in the designated courses for the best time - or the part depending on how difficult you want to make it (e.g. the winner of the metro course gets the part instead of the part despawning if you don't make it in time).

[@Jazinga1]

I LOVE your story for your city. The animated story with a voice actor was outstanding! Sorry to hear you picked up a bug but I'm glad you're feeling better. Nice work Impy. Love the video.

[@PixieDragon99]

9:44 You could call the overall quest “The Unfinished Quest” since your hero character started it by defeating the AI but died before he could complete it by telling everyone.

Yes! The lore story looks so cool! The changes made on the story looks much better. It was easier to read that text. I love that Max Doodles is the main character until the Hermit becomes the hero of the story! I can't wait to see all the challenges to get the generator parts found. I'm sorry you got sick Impulse. I'm happy you gave us your pov from when Tango and Skizz were messing around. I laughed so much. Poor Skizz dying a few times! You were flying like you belonged in Top Gun! I didn't realize you were just going back and forth like a pro! Sweet! It would be funny to have a whole bunch of dangling sheep in the void for the hole network! I can't wait to get back into streams with you. See you then!

Wow! That story was awsome! And the animation and the voice acting aswell. Great job!

[@FharishAhmedPortfolio]

OH SNAPPERS!!! Impulse is back from his vacation! 😁

[@Taiy0kay]

Impulse, pleeeease combine your city lore with Ren's! I absolutely love the way your stories could fit together-- your cypercity falling into ruin in a hostile world while Ren's Gigacorp explores the planet to try and find life. It could be so cool, especially after the games when the reactor is saved!

[@acidslushie]

holy moly i was not expecting a fully animated and narrated story. AMAZING !!! i cannot WAIT to see where this all goes !!!

[@darkskull1-132]

Considering this is Bdubs' project as well, I think Doublepulse Valley/City would make the perfect name 🤓

[@gamble0120]

The concept of Ready Player One is great where the creator hid 3 keys along its world and whoever gets those keys wins the entire game. You can get the idea from this by hidding 3 (or more) tokens around your gaming district which still needs to be attained from playing. Those who get those tokens at the end can find an easter egg

WOOOOOOOOOOO SHORT STORY IMPY ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

Suggestion: For Metro mayhem you could do a random time limit that the hermit needs to beat, say 2-4 minutes or somthing, insted of the same time for each run.

The mini movie at the start was fantastic!! I am so hyped about the lore, and and also to watch it all come to life throughout the season!

[@vogelvrouw]

Yesssss! The lore!!

[@54m0h7]

Extended lore. The people have been in the mountain so long that they started building outside, being Joels place. lol

[@Crazydog-327]

I need my hermit craft

[@justyce_yt]

What is Impulse's crafting recipe?

[@D3vilsW0lf]

The void hole, the sequel to Boatem. All the practice with the Boatem hole has payed off, Skizz needs to talk to Scar for dying the most to the void 😂

Opening the bunker could be a special thing that happens as a reward. You said that saving the generator was a single-person-goal, but opening the bunker can be a goal for the whole server to participate in! Maybe if enough hermits finished the minigames in time, the bunker opens and contains a reward or another minigame?

[@ShadowedSky]

Lol the slime just bouncing around likes it’s dancing while you made the tunnel made me laugh more than it should’ve

[@fountainpenguin]

It must be awesome to see your vision come to life! :) Here's a thought I had, feel free to play with it if it inspires you. If Max took a fatal blow and died, does that imply this story takes place in a Hardcore world without respawn? If that's the case, you could do some sort of theme in your games by forcing people to stop playing if they die, or maybe there's a city culture of using Totems of Undying (or being anti-Totem in Max's memory). Alternatively, I'm on the floor giggling over Max dying and then waking up in his bed and showing up to his own funeral like "Guys, I'm okay." I feel like there's a million directions you could take "Robots live long lives by repairing themselves when they're broken" and "Uh... people do that too. I guess we're not so different." /awkward silence And of course, if the story is just "Exists in a world with no connection to Minecraft mechanics," that's fine too, but I've been chewing on the respawn question since I watched this yesterday. Best wishes! I think the idea of being in the post-revolution era is super cool; I love when societies (and people) are haunted by the past; it's so rich and gives you lots of worldbuilding direction :)
