Meat Circus with lyrics by Man On The Internet psychonauts animatic (unfinished)

for the og video and song in full !: • Psychonauts - Meat Cir...
hiii happy day-late anniversary to pn1
this was made like. really soon after the release of pn2, so still 2021 I think. i really loved moti’s lyrics for meat circus, it gave me the idea that all of raz’s family was there singing and taunting Raz instead of just augustus like in game, and so i thought it’d be neat to also include Oleander’s siblings that were mentioned in the Li-Po doc. i had the whole thing planned out but unfortunately no longer feel up to the task of finishing it :[ if i ever do come back to it, it will be in significantly lesser quality as seen here, like just barebones sketches probably
also i may be using uploading this as a means to procrastinate working on my other animatic I’m currently doing heehee
raz’s outfit change is also a reference to how in the game it was planned that his outfit would change with every mind he went into

hi. I'm not going to finish this. especially not Just Because you want me to or think i should. stop telling me to finish this like i Have To. drawing is my hobby. you are not paying me. i have no obligation to any of you. leave me alone.

[@rowlet0001]

That is actually fair and nobody can force someone to do something. Great art btw :)

[@anondabomb]

Ya, but your art really fits with psychonauts. You might be able to help make game 3!

[@bluedragon2049]

Who tf is telling you to finish its up to you I understand if someone comments "loved to see the full version, take your time" but telling you to is horrible I can't count how many times animatetors had canceled projects because people kept telling them to finish it and why is it taking so long Or just straight up being rude Really sorry this happened to you

[@miilk.]

tbh i class this as finished anyway because the rest of the song is just repeating 😭 i think this is awesome!

[@aresking4332]

Didn't even know this was unfinished. That's really good. Hope you have fun with whatever your next project is!

[@fleshdadbot6852]

Many often forget how olleander knew his powers since the beggining, so he d know how to use telekinesis, well thought!

[@Karlos1234ify]

I remember the days when I played Meat Circus, so much PTSD, no checkpoints. The second I heard this music in the sequel, I threw my controller saying “No, not again!”

[@insertclevernamehere6607]

Nona using her latent hydro kinesis is really neat, despite the whole, everybody in her family drowning thingy

[@fella3817]

where the room begins to flood? that wasn’t intended to be her doing it, that happens in the meat circus level normally ! but the idea that she’s doing it seems neat

[@Fangria]

​​@@fella3817i think they mean the shot of the water hand followed by nona raising her hands like a psychic

[@animal_gal_adventures9885]

Interested how the zombie family seems to be trying to help raz. Nice touch

[@lou626]

I WAS SHAKING WHEN I READ "with special guests Eagle rock and butch oleander"

[@UndodnU]

I really love how the Meat Circus is the crashing together amalgamation of two peoples trauma. I kind of wish we could have seen the rest of the Aquatos in the first game, they'd have been an interesting addition to the Meat Circus.

[@CrimesTimeLive]

The expressions of Frazie and Dion on "oh the drama" and Augustus' on beat glare absolutely sold this for me. Great job, I love the style and the detail of making Nona Maligula colored!

[@thatcomicandmangafanfromdublin]

its so much drama

[@sunflowersoup5000]

This is so cool! I love the outfit you gave Raz, and I also really like the deisgns for his family. I also noticed that Nona is a slightly different color from the rest of the family, is this a hint at her past by chance? Or just an aesthetic choice?

[@fella3817]

YEAH i thought it’d be neat that she be purple instead bc while the others are green/zombie colored, she WAS purple irl as maligula ! so raz’s messed up mental world perception of her is purple ! not that he Knows that she was maligula at this point, i was thinking it just a subconscious thing

[@showtheshow3397]

@@fella3817 Honestly? My take on her different colour was that Raz simply saw Nona as nicer. She wasn't intentionally malicious like his siblings or his father and mother, but simply old and funny. So he and her probably got on well! (Though, the Maligula thing CERTAINLY makes more sense gdfshnkjgdsfkjbngdf)

[@rosykindbunny1313]

Bro I first watched this before completing the second game, but rewatching it and seeing that detail is awesome

[@everest5718]

I love that detail as some dramatic irony, as Raz obviously has no idea at this point but he still was able to see Nona was different from the rest of his Family subconsciously :0

[@Nazgul100]

This is such an amazingly strong start. Completely understandable if this never gets finished due to you working on other things or simply losing interrest, but I sure would love to see it finished, It looks super great, the expressions, the color, the movements to the beat. Its a feast for the senses ^^

[@twistedwolf8422]

I love the small detail of how all of Raz’s family is green like his dad was except Nona who is purple like Maligula the Deluge of Grulovia (since that’s who she is or well was)

[@chong8763]

Me when watching video: *kalm* Me when playing the level: *kalm* Me without this music playing: *panik* Me when i see the family stay in water except raz: *ULATMITE PANIK*

[@UnknownInflux]

I love the Meat Circus designs for the rest of the family!

[@anatthema4687]

OH THIS IS FANTASTIC!!! I’ve been WANTING to see an animatic of the MOTI adaption of this song and you knocked it out of the park! love your style and the colouring choices, it’s real fun!

[@Encyclone4]

WOW!! THIS IS SO WELL MADE!!! i really really REALLY look forward to seeing the rest. the animation is wonderful and so well thought-out and the family singing sounds so much like the Aquatos somehow? I am so in love with this dude I do not have the words for it

[@SorceressRose]

Imagine instead of being just an evil version of his father alone, he had to go up against evil versions of his entire family. That would make for a great fight!

[@LemonadeStand618]

This is somehow the best fanmade song I've ever seen.

[@HelloWorld-xp5ku]

OHMYGOSH this is so good! One of my favorite things you did-the beat matching in the beginning to augustus’s glare-it’s obvious you put so much care into this!

[@QueenCreeps]

Maaate, I love your art style!

[@Fanaticprinting]

Why do you only have 1k subs why not more cause you are so talented and this is amazing to watch, Also good music choice!

[@lizzyserf]

OOOGH THIS IS COOL…… im not usually one for the game-music-with-lyrics songs but this has made me appreciate this one at least….. i love how you draw all of them and it’s just super cool

[@rosykindbunny1313]

I've lost track of how many times I've watched this on repeat

[@MezephelesArt]

This poor kid

[@mariaelisacruz]

This looks amazing, congrats! It’s always great to find new Psychonauts content

[@Maddy-sm3kp]

I know exactly what the song means but it’s so catchy I can’t stop listening

[@Cosmignon]

Always love your art style, and it's cool to see visuals set to this version of the song!

[@Quackervoltz]

Shit I guess I'm a Psychonauts fan now. Idk shit about it but the goggles kid is my son now. Guessing he had some sort of abusive circus family

[@neosolitudexevermore4895]

Spoilers for the Game. Rasputin's family isn't actually abusive, they just didn't want Raz to embrace his psychic powers because they thought that a family of psychics cursed them to die in water, due to this Raz thought his family(mostly his dad, Augustus) hated all psychics and by extension him for being a psychic, but his family does love him and, thankfully once Augustus saw what he looked and acted like in his son's mind, he allowed his son to embrace his psychic powers.

[@Quackervoltz]

@@neosolitudexevermore4895 I actually checked out the game after making this comment and discovered this myself, but thank you anyways

[@averagememeenjoyer1055]

after watching this over a year later i say this is still epic

[@ewe5137]

Oh!!! I love this so much

[@sodacrush3052]

oomohohohohoho this is so good. adoring this artstyle

[@Lichzim]

Damn this is really good. Wish this animation was of the whole song and not just a portion of it.

[@fella3817]

damn. not my problem anymore. thanks though. i think.

[@fella3817]

on my birthday too. you give me some backhanded compliment that only serves to make me feel inadequate on My Birthday. nice.

[@Lichzim]

​@@fella3817 I'm incredibly sorry this was not meant to be a backhanded compliment. I was being sincere in what I was saying, but I can see how it could be interpreted that way. Again my sincerest apologies if this had seemed like (or still seems like) it is meant to be rude or insulting. I suppose I could have.....no definitely should have worded it better.

[@fella3817]

hey id like to also apologize. I've had a lot of people legitimately try to shame me for not finishing this video and plenty more being shitty to me on other videos of mine for like. saying transphobia is bad. I've gotten tired of trying to give people the benefit of the doubt that they aren't trying to be mean. but I am sorry i interpreted you harshly. have a good day whenever you see this

[@kk_cats6072]

this makes me really happy and i like it a lot! the little touch of nona being a different colour..

Needs another part

[@brandonbasilio4585]

Speed drawing a meat circus version of maligula

[@thomasmonaher5547]

I like that nona is purple instead of green blue like the others. It's sorta reprasent malegula.

[@Tommedian]

Spoilers for Psychonauts 2 I like how Nona has the same color scheme as Maligula. It was stated that both Augustus and Nona deep down knew the truth, and this implies that so did Raz

[@DOTHECHILDRENALSOHAVEBONES]

more pls

no 💔 i do Not take requests but Especially not for videos HDHDJSJSJSJ sorry

[@-Commit-arson-]

(spoilers) I love how nona is a vastly different color than the other meat zombie family members Denoting the fact that she is not really there Nona

[@geezy8689]

Is it just a aesthetic choice that his family is green I'm curious but I don't want to be spoiled' just in case that has something to do with the second game as I haven't finished it yet

[@fella3817]

most of his (mental-world) family being green here is because they’re zombies like mental-world Augustus is in meat circus ! his family is here just to fit the vocals. nona being a purple zombie is a spoiler for psychonauts 2 though

[@geezy8689]

@@fella3817 I don't necessarily know what you mean by zombies but it must have been something I missed in the first game and I appreciate you not spoiling the second

[@fella3817]

[@geezy8689]

@@fella3817 no worries so everyone you see in the mental worlds are zombies? That's a bit weird but you know I'm not judging I know you're saying Augustus but my brain is trying to autocorrected to the aquatos I don't remember who Augustus is but thank you for informing me

[@fella3817]
