Don't Starve Together: Along Came A Spider [Webber Animated Short] 

Listen well children, and mind the warnings of your parents... naughtiness always comes back to bite you in the end. Full Webber Details Here: forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/131133-webbers-character-refresh-is-now-available

Unlike 99.9% of players, he didn’t punch the butterfly

Poor webby boy :( I still love him though he's is best!

I just noticed, at the start he catches a butterfly. His father studies insects. He just wanted help his father :(

“Spider Changes: Spiders can wear hats now” That’s it! That’s all we ever needed! Nothing else is important!

Someone: Is desperate Maxwell: *allow me to introduce myself*

C'mon Webber, The spider is the easiest thing to dodge!

Aw, the poor boy. He just wanted his father’s love :(

i expected to see webber's human face, but thats the most we'll ever see i guess

Webber finally got the attention he deserved. Not from his parents, but from the devs.

Everyone's talking about how they're crying over the tragicness of the story (and don't get me wrong, Webber's my favourite character) OR they're talking about how Wagstaff being there from 0:08 - 0:13 affects the lore. But what's interesting to me is the narrator. This is obviously the same person who narrated Wortox's short, which we found out was canonically Maxwell in the holiday short "Inevitable". The tone he uses and the hesitation in certain parts makes it obvious that he's very uncomfortable telling this story. This is proof that Maxwell is starting to become more humble and starting to mentally heal (just TRY to tell me that the nightmare throne didn't leave a lot of mental damage on that man) just enough that he has empathy again. At least enough empathy to genuinely recognize how tragic this story is. In the Wortox short, he sounded like a parent telling a kid to be good or else. In this one, he's actually horrified by what happened and doesn't want to talk about it. He even ended it with "he begged for a way to change back, no matter the price" as what I think might be a way for Maxwell to absolve some of his guilt about bringing Webber into the Constant. The only thing that Maxwell could do at the time was bring him there and hope for the best, so that's what he did. The very last line was him trying to justify his actions a little. He's probably still conflicted about it and that's why he felt the need to do that. Those are just my observations, though. I could be full of shit, here seeing as I wrote all of this out at 3AM, but it's just something I found interesting.

I love the narration, this was so captivating

Alchemy engine examination: "my father has one of those!" You can see one in the animation, good details, as always, Klei!

Everyone’s talking about the alchemy engine but can we just appreciate that they remembered the goats as well?

"That jerk tricked me" -Webber examining Maxwell

So first: My feels. Second: Does it mean that Webber is the first recorded case, when Maxwell didn't fullfil his part of deal? Wislon got the knwoledge, Willow got a new start and she can burn as she pleases, Wigfrid became a viking valkarie again and Wendy is with her sister again. Yet, Webber is still a spider.

Someone is crying... Maxwell: Yeah im going to ruin someone's day with style

They amaze me when they use voice lines to mix in to the shorts, since webber says his dad used to work with the alchemy engine, though sad to say I didn't see no tamo shanter

the line "no matter the price!" as maxwell's face showed up in the sky was such great timing, not gonna lie this short was super cool I love Webber more than ever now

I have an important question, Klei. Did they swallow instruments before, during, or after the trip to the Constant?

I love how Klei keeps consistency on it's characters, one random developer writes that Webber's father had goats and years later it is on the short

Poor Webber :( He was just curious; but thankfully he got a better science dad in the Constant :)

The poor boyo just wanted to play with his papa T-T he's still the best and nicest boyo around.

Webber didn't deserve this, poor guy just wanted some time with his father :(

So is Webber still classified as "The Indigestible?" The way this plays out it doesn't look so much like boy is trapped in spider as boy IS spider

I just got my younger sister into Don’t Starve Together. I play Wendy, and she plays Webber, and we’ve both been really excited to see any Klei animations, so when she saw the Webber one appear, man it’s hard to describe the amount of joy and excitement! Thank you again Klei for another master class animation. :))

I'm glad you didn't show his face to keep some parts of him a mystery

Yet again I am greatly captivated by the quality of this short, also very sad for Webber...

The child needs a hug. And that's a fact.

"Daddy" "Not now, son." "Dad" "Not now, son." _"HISSSSS"_ *"JFC!!!"*

Alternative title: David Attenborough narrates a boot-legged version of Spiderman.

Another Perfect Animation. Interestingly enough, seems like Alchemy Engine is a creation of Wagstaff and those close to him gained the blueprint to it? Seems like Wagstaff was able to transport Constant's creatures into the Real World. LORE GUYS, ACTUAL LORE!

I like how nearly every character has met wagstaff somehow, wilson with the radio, winona working in the same place, now webber and since now he is in the game, maybe he is the way out

Webber's father looks ridiculously similar to woody

Whoever is in charge of the lore is doing an excellent job, we keep getting so many small details from (likely throwaway) lines added years ago, making it all consistent and even connect to greater picture cant be easy

Don't Starve story is SO GOOD that if they create a movie, series or anything related someday, I am pretty sure it would become a lot of people's favorite really quickly.

Only found this game because this little guy, so glad to see they finally got an animated short.

That's exactly how i imagined Webber would look as a human boy!

OK KLEI I'M CRYING NOW YOU WIN

"No matter the price" *Maxwell wants to know your location*

story of Webber: gets bit by spider, becomes spider. story of Spider Man: gets bit by spider, becomes spider. coincidence? I think not.

Lowkey we need more reworks just for the animated shorts

Webber is actually my favorite character

I absolutley adore klei's animations they are probably one of the best details about the reworks its just so hype

oh, bless poor Webber I'm also really glad we finally got to see webber origins it made me cry I feel so bad for him he really just wanted his parents to pay more attention to him I really hope we can somehow help Webber and even if we cant I hope he will find that he has friends and family now who wouldn't ignore him and take of him Wilson and the gang are his new family now.

While I watched this, I my brother was playing DST, and when ol' William Carter appeared, Webber (he mains) was struck by lightning. Coincidence, I don't think so.

The most captivating webber i've ever seen.

Webber is such a cute innocent cinnamon bun ;-; this is definitely my favorite animated short so far, great job Klei !!!

If only Klei short videos was shown on TV when I was a kid...

I love how about half the community feels some sort of parental protectiveness over Webber.

My boy has such a wild hairstyle he'd give Higgsbury a run for his money

The Wagstaff cameo made my jaw near hit the _floor._ The way that everything keeps tying back to him is getting me legitimately tense. You're building to something here, I can feel it... So excited to see where this is headed.

Wagstaff, I swear to Charlie, I will find where you're hiding and shove a Volt Goat horn where the light don't shine!

*Something goes wrong The DST community: *Looks at Wagstaff "I can't believe you've done this."

webber: wouldn’t hurt a fly me playing webber: Spider war Spider War Spider war

I like how there's a alcamy engine in the background and when you examine one in game as webber he says father used to work on something like that

Nobody: Webber: Sad Spooder Noises

anyone think that because the spider was outside the constant it needed something to keep itself "stable" in the real world hence why it was in the cage. and when it was broken free it due to dark magic or something they fused to become webber so the spider would be "stable" in the real world.

So…Wagstaff’s connected to Webber’s Story then, Right?

In a different reality, he’s become Spider-Man

Webberrrr,,, my baby boyyy!! 😭 Another fantastic animation from Klei, another sad one Your characters always amaze me, how you guys make each individual one so unique- I'll never know!

First time an animated short made me cry. My god that was so sad

Webber is like a slowpoke. Something bites him, and then they combine. All in all though, big yes from me klei. Keep *it UP*

full of emotions as always, it was amazing

0:10 omg Wagstaff Don't starve

Silly webber, everyone knows you just hold down the click button on a spider to deal with it

sometimes, one's feelings cannot be expressed with words, klei manages to make me feel this way.

What a god damn masterpiece! the background is amazing so much lore! What can i say you did an amazing job Klei.

I adore the love and details put into this project, and even more how the story of it unfolds! Keep up the good work, Klei! ✨

Spider Child, Spider Child, does whatever a spider does. LOOK OUT, here comes the spider child

Beautiful. I’ve waited for this for 6 years

This reminded me about Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis" a little, with Webber turning himself into a spider and his family rejecting him. And just like that book, this animation literally made me cry. Will we ever get a happy ending to the whole story, Klei?

Wagstaff is popping up a lot more recently, also im sad now, thanks Klei

Fun fact: Webber's human half is probably Scottish.

Klei imma say it This franchise you have is a special place amongst all gamer souls It's hard to hate this game Also praise spooder boi

Good story but I smell a part 2, after all we never found out how he was taken. Nor the whole “indigestible” part. And we did find his as a skull.

I feel bad for that meatball on legs :(

british people playing dont starve be like "webba"

venom looking lit

Webber been my favorite from Day 1! Really nice to finally see his short. Thanks so much Klei

Shoutouts to klei for releasing the update 30 minutes early

He has never been a monster.

si he literally fused with a spider that Wagstaff brought to his father yikes

This animation kind of gave me an interesting theory. In Webber's vignette it's described that some sort of predicament that could be seen as a curse is viewed by Webber as a "second chance". At first I thought the predicament was him becoming half human half spider. Though now I believe it's referring to him be trapped in the Constant. Webber would view this as a second chance because he could make a new "family" with Spiders and the other survivors trapped in the Constant after being thrown out by his old one.

1:04 WAS THAT THE BITE OF '87?

Webber is so precious that's not fair for him 🥺

If Webber's dad had the alchemy engine, did Webber built the Alchemy engine in the constant? good short though

*Guys, i don't think Wagstaff got that spider legally*

I fell in love with Don't Starve when I found it all those years ago, back in 2013. A lot has happened since then... And even I have changed drastically ever since. I stopped playing DST some years ago and left the community as well. However, seeing the reworks, the lore, the animations and just the love Klei puts into every single aspect of the game has gotten me hyped up for the future of Don't Starve. I really cannot wait to see what the minds at Klei have in store for us... Maybe some more puzzles like the old time? ;)

Webber here: Kindest Spider Kid Webber in game: I shall bring ruin with my spider army

Man i wanna see this on Netflix

Every single animated short is just SO good, well done again!

This animation is amazing! Webber is my favorite character and it's great that you decided to change him. You can watch these animations like a fairy tale and I would love to see a fairy tale from this game.

"Oh no,spider!" "Quick,kill...kill it!" "NO" "It gave birth!AAAAA"

definitely one of the best shorts, I love it.

this the best short yet! WEBBY BOY STORIE also sad though :(

The narration scared me at first was not expecting it.

Imagine disliking this masterpiece, smh.

Hey Klei can you stop breaking my heart with these animations? Thanks

see, this is why, if you catch a spider in a glass, you TELL people its in there
