Outer Wilds - Memories [Tribute Animation] 

I couldn't help crying when I saw the part where the player met Solanum and rushed to hug her... It's so touching...

Not only did Solanum finally get the hug she deserves, but she gave the hug back, which I absolutely believe she would. And that scene of the artifact test failure was incredibly well done. The whole thing was great, to be honest.

That shot of the hourglass twins is undeniably perfect... Now I wanna make something cool

WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE HOW AMAZING THIS IS

Absolutely stunning art, I was having a perpetual eyegasm

Thank you, that was beautiful. The hug for Solanum really got me, I wanted to hug her too.

This was so incredible!! It was honestly so so good. The shot of the sun station was amazing, I loved the quantum rock disappearing, the animation was just incredible, the shot of brittle hollow from space was beautiful, all the owlk stuff was just incredible, I loved every second and now I want more

the solanum part almost made me CRY 🥺 amazing work

For a while, I was working on making an outer wilds animation myself. I was gonna use stop motion, and had finished the puppets, but never got around to filming. When I would have been filming is around the time I fell out of animation. Seeing this though, I’ve been thinking about revisiting the project. It never will be as good as this, due to a bunch of reasons, but at some point, I will finish it

This is so incredible. It's at once so homely, and yet so eldritch. It really captures the spirit of Outer wilds, the wonder of these locations-Ash and Ember, the seas of Giant's Deep, the vast desolation of the Stranger-and the horror. The Strangers themselves. The Dark Bramble. Trapped in the Sunless City. There's also a profound sense of dread and acceptance. Loneliness. Companionship. Togetherness. Thanks for this. It is a wonderful tribute to this incredible game.

Yoooo you played outer wilds? Great taste!! The animation of the Strangers at 4:04 is amazing!!! The entire thing is amazing, but I really love that scene in particular!

OUTER WILDS CONTENT IS ALWAYS A YES!!!! THIS IS AMAZING!!!

This is definitely not something I ever expected form you but it's great, I love it. Outer Wilds was my game of the year for that year and is still one of my favorite games of all time and this animation absolutely did it justice.

wow… I am blown away. The scene of the hatchling running to grab Solanum in an embrace made me burst into tears. I hope the folks at Mobius see this. What a beautiful tribute. Thank you for making it.

This game is part of my life now. Seeing the Hearthian giving a hug to Solanum is heart warming.

this is so fucking amazing dude. you made me cry with the hug. you guys did amazing (im the eyemeat. i didnt expect to be in the credits???? but thank you!)

Damn, that scene of Solanum made me choke up... I Love this short film so much, it's fantastic! Thanks for making it!

Oh my gosh everything about this is phenomenal honestly, brought some tears to my eyes I can't lie SUCH an amazing tribute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A wonderful tribute for a wonderful game. Would that I could find more words for it than that - and that the hug's something I wish we could've done in the game itself. Great work, y'all.

bro dropped the most jaw dropping outer wilds animation and thought we wouldn’t notice (i’m crying)

My word. Not sure how this slipped my radar until now but I can't overstate how impressed I am by this. The visuals are gorgeous, such a perfect translation and upgrade to the game's graphics. It's clear how few corners were cut to make this, each individual scene so different and well thought out. You did so well to not only depict scenes from the game, but nail how they felt to play through. You gave the setting such a cinematic quality that is usually only felt rather than seen. Completely outside of my attachment to Outer Wilds this is simply a superbly directed and shot short film.

this was the last thing i expected from you, but it turned out to be the greatest

this has brought the whole game into a deeper level man ! what you did is byound words !

4:17 just made me cry. This is amazing.

I hope this gets more views than it currently has. You’re a great animator.

I've been left speechless by many an Outer Wilds video, in fact I can say at least three in the last 24 hours. But none of them like this. This is genuinely astounding, and the fact that it's fanmade blows my mind. You should be proud of this, to your very core. Thank you for making it. I won't ever be able to forget it. I hope you won't mind if I think of you as a friend.

Why did I only see this now? This is gorgeous work, absolutely stunning! I can't wait to show this to any of my friends who I've yet to convince to play my favorite game of all time

This is amazing. Thank you for posting this incredible video for the Outer Wilds community!

All of this is so good, the animations, modeling, the lighting, THE LIGHTING

Whenever I get to watch Outer Wilds content like this, a line from Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot always comes to mind: "The aggregate of our joy and suffering"

This was absolutely incredible. I don’t really have anything to add but I’m commenting because I want youtube to show this to more people

What an incredible animation, so detailed, so lovely! Y'all did such fantastic work!

What a beautiful movie! I admire your amazing skill and great love for Outer Wilds. It is a great honor that my journey of curiosity has led me to such an emotional and warm creation. Thank you for your wonderful work!

Seeing the Hatchling hug Solanum sumarizes my entire experience with this game

Only memories and pain is left after this story, but great awe. Like losing someone you care about. You can struggle anyway you want, but end just happened

A treat for the eyes and the soul! Holy shit. This is the most moved I've felt by Outer Wilds since completing EotE years ago. Thank you for bringing that magic back for me for a little while. I can't imagine the kind of work a video like this takes, but your effort and passion really, really shows!

AAAAH THIS IS SO COOL I love this community so much 🥲 Amazing job!

This was the most impressive and moving tribute to this game I’ve ever seen. I am so grateful to those who made this. It really brought me back to that world and I will probably be watching this on repeat 😁

Wow.. this was something. 4:17 I wanted to do this in game, seeing it animated was SO satisfying. This is just cannon in my playthrough I don't care. 2:46 Gave me chills when he opened his eyes. Can't tell you how much I love this, this was just so good. Thank you.

I come back and rewatch this often, truly one of my favorite videos on the platform. Thank you for all your time and effort spent on this heartwarming tribute

most fantastic animation I have ever seen, made me cry. Million thanks and bless you!

Oh i love this so much, absolutly gorgeous animation, you were capable of capture all of the stunning beaty and terror of the game.

This is incredible. And the characters are so well made 4:34 we all know the feel

This is incredible! The animation is all so smooth

Everything from this animation was amazing, visuals totally stunning and the essence of Outer Wilds was captured perfectly. This game means a lot to me in so many senses, thank you so much for your work, it has got me in tears. And man, the hug to Solanum got me in even more tears than before :'), i always wanted to give a big hug to Solanum... It's like a dream come true somehow

This is incredibleeeeeee, like genuinely. I adoreeeeeee the owlk animations oh my gosh, I need to go rewatch this at least 5 more times immediately. I wish to learn how to make something like this, wow I bow down this is so gorgeous and stunning and creative and eeee

Very impressive!

Remember the Nomai. Remember the dreaming Inhabitants. Remember your Hearthian family and friends. And remember the universe. As long as it is remembered, and as long as you recall everything you know, those who follow will remember too. And with that, you will reach a future that makes the universe tremble and quake with the ripples from your song of the past. (Edit: ok, all dramatic emotional sentiment aside, how has this not had 1000 likes?? Or 100k views? Ugh, the sadness that comes from realizing that another *pretty good not bad game* came out the same month and year and nearly the same name as this game…ugh…we need more people who know why this game is so good…)

UGHHH. THE SOLANUM HUG MADE ME SOB this is sooo so amazing, you captured that unmistakably magical feeling of playing for the first time... magnificent work

Holy COW this is insane, I don't even know where you would start making so many amazing 3d models, amazingly done!!

Incredibly well made video ! And very touching, emotional sequences, the hug with solanum really got me emotional 😮😢❤❤

This is fantastic! Well done Frag

Absolutely amazing!

This is so beautiful I actually teared up on this. Thank you so much for this.

This is by far the single most visually impressive piece of Outer Wilds fan content I've ever seen. Bravo!

This is INCREDIBLE. The scenes of Solanum and the Prisoner gave me chills, and I absolutely loved the way you used Andrew's music - I've been putting together a tribute cover containing some of my favourite themes from the Echoes of the Eye OST, and I wish I had the skills to create an animation like this to accompany it! Gorgeous, gorgeous work

Dude, you're a huge inspiration. I've always wanted to get into making Outer Wilds animations in blender but I've always been scared to try. That, along with how busy I am with college. I can only hope to be half as good as you are when I'm able to get enough time to work on it! Thank you for this beatiful animation as well. This game means a lot to me and seeing any sort of fanart or projects relating to it warms my heart so much.

THIS IS AMAZING!

Absolutely beautiful, from the subtle twitching while dreaming, to the very real looking satellite tower, to the artistic imagery of crashing against the satellite, to everything. This was truly incredible, impactful, and supremely inspiring. I wish I could show the world, but that’s more of a reason to get them to play the game first

Really beautiful !

Jesus Christ, this is amazing!!!

this was goddamn beautiful. i would pay every cent i own to see more of this.

This is stunning.

THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL

I already made a comment but this comment had to be separate. This video is incredible. Like legitimately makes every moment I experiences 1000x more real. Thank you for making this. My memories are here, in this tribute.
