Other Places: The Witness

Other Places is a series of short films celebrating beautiful videogame worlds.

I vow to make this puzzle island should I ever become a billionair

[@alexofswag]

Have you looked at Firewatch? That should be your next game.

[@OskarWetterbrandt]

This is beautiful, I'm also hoping for a Other Places: Firewatch next!

[@LePandemic]

Really nice one! Probably gonna screenshot some moments for wallpapers :3 I'd love to see an Other places on Firewatch for the next one :)

[@otherplaces]

+Le_Pandemic I would love to do Firewatch too! But I've yet to figure out how to hide the crosshair/reticule thing. I've asked the devs if they can help, but no luck so far. Hopefully I'll be able to soon.

[@otherplaces]

+ultrabrilliant Moments after I posted this, I found a way. So look out for a Firewatch video in the very near future!

[@LePandemic]

+ultrabrilliant You're the best! Too bad I couldn't remove the reticule too when I was playing :( Good luck for your work, can't wait!

[@TheASMRGeek]

+ultrabrilliant Please tell me the way. It's totally killing my vibe.

[@daanreins5326]

My god was this worth the wait. I've been looking forward to an OP about The Witness since I saw its trailer. It just lends itself so well to this concept.

[@pip.turner]

As gorgeous as ever. Just stunning. Especially the decision to not include music (as in the game). Felt like going for a walk on a summer's day.

[@kynikersolon3882]

I would really like if other games used this kind of style.

[@xellestar]

such a great location, i keep discovering little nooks hidden away on the island

[@otherplaces]

+xellestar Yeah, the more time I spent recording footage on the island, the more I realised how much craft has gone into making it.

[@ethanellappa]

Beautiful work, thank you

[@JamesStarkey]

This is stunning, Andy.

[@otherplaces]

+James Starkey Cheers!

[@Balc0ra]

This worked surprisingly well with no music to it. Just makes it greater and makes sense as the game lacks a soundtrack to.

[@user-sv6zz1to6y]

Вот это стиль!

[@geebeecologne]

just discovered: new works from you, so gives me great pleasure ! :)

[@GCEism]

worth the homemade catheter I'm sure

[@georgeharris6652]

I was going to make a comment about requesting that you do a video of Firewatch as well, but I can see that I'm hardly alone.

[@SterileNeutrino]

I'm hoping for an "Other Places: NieR Automata"

[@PetroDeineka]

I like thet gamma, but the lack of wind

[@SpencerSamios]

Nice touch not including any music.

[@georgeharris6652]

+Spencer Samios That's how the game itself is, no music

[@SpencerSamios]

+George Harris that was my intention, Normally he adds the games soundtrack over the videos instead of using the soundtrack in the videos. There is no soundtrack in the witness so he didn't ad any which I liked. I hope this makes my comment more clear.

[@georgeharris6652]

Spencer Samios Yeah that makes sense, I agree, it's a nice nod to how the game itself is designed

[@otherplaces]

+Spencer Samios The first edit was actually cut to music (a piano piece by Aphex Twin that I felt suited the mood), but I decided to just let the audio design shine for a change.

[@SpencerSamios]

+ultrabrilliant I'm glad you did because it came out brilliantly!

[@KermitTheFud]

Other places The Division?

[@otherplaces]

+StripyJACKSON5 Yeah, most likely!

[@omar65ish]

Dam it Mother nature is so sexy"

[@braydenhopkins]

beautifully shot, the game is just to static for me.

[@antax4799]

Do one for Minecraft lol XD

[@otherplaces]

+Anta X I'm genuinely considering this!

[@antax4799]

+ultrabrilliant Ya, make one. It will be awesome! Looking forward to for that. :)
