GLITCH'S NEXT SHOW IS HERE! We really hope you all enjoyed it. Our little indie team and the amazing Gooseworx put a lot of love and effort into making this ♥AS WE ALWAYS WILL! We'd like to do a full season and are currently seeking funding! You can help support us by getting some merch ► digitalcircus.store/ No pressure though, hope you have a great day! 💙

The fact that this show is 5 days old and it already has a fandom is honestly mind-blowing

I like how Caine fundamentally doesn't understand why everyone wants to leave, and tries to make the "exit" part of the map.

Imagine finding out you'll spend eternity as a bunch of random shapes including a triangle head.

Caine: “You cannot swear” Pomni: *”I have access to the ENTIRE curse word library”*

The implication that Kinger was “the first” and us learning that there have been already dozens of former characters that have essentially broken is crazy

I love that Caine tells Zooble he’ll make it a non-intrusive adventure that they don’t have to get involved with. Then not only makes the adventure about creatures that they in particular are vulnerable to, but has them be targetted first.

I was here at 20 million, and i remember rewatching this over and over to hope it got the recognition it deserved. Now we are at 300 million, congrats TADC!

This is a very clever take on a psychological horror. The dark undertone is sugarcoated with this whimsical and colorful children’s world. Very impressive work.

The fact the video has a huge amount of views, accumulated over 1 million likes and has a fandom in less than a week shows how good of show this will be

Y’know it’s interesting how unmalicious caine seemingly is. Although he’s clearly crazy, and rather dismissive of his “characters”, he shows genuine care about them, why try to “stimulate” their brains? Why give them their own rooms? And why would he go through the trouble of creating a exit, if you were trying keep them there for a reason, or drive them crazy? Or even when he deals with obscured characters, he sends them to a “vault” instead of deleting, destroying, banishing, it’s like he is trying to find a way to fix them but he can’t because “he can’t control minds”. So it’ll be really interesting to see how this wacko of a ring leader turns out, malicious puppeteer, or crazy care taker?

This is where it all started… all the brain rot… started because of this amazing animation… I wish it was just the show, and not the brain rot. (Keep up the amazing work!)

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1056">17:36</a> is a very somber moment. This is the first time Pomni has seen herself since arriving in the Digital Circus. This scene highlights the gravity of the situation for Pomni. She realises that this isn’t a dream.

Yknow, i just had a thought. Im amazed that nobody had a lasting reaction to Kaufmo abstracting. Pretty much everyone brushed it off more than anything, with Caine even making a joke about his abstracting. There doesn’t seem to be a way of “dying” in the digital circus, but abstracting is the closest thing to it; completely losing your mind, your body becoming something atrocious and violent, with no remnant of what used to be “you”. With Kaufmo, that was straight up just a dude _dying,_ someone they might’ve known for a long time, and they brush it off like it’s nothing. Hell, I’m surprised Pomni didn’t even say anything (though they did look disgusted after Caine’s joking demeanor about it.)

Great job on this to everyone involved, very professionally done.

Reminder that Caine isn't evil. He's an ai who lives in the virtual world. He literally can't comprehend why people would want to leave or how. He wants to help them, which was stated by the creator. However, his reality is the virtual world, so he can't help them. He's not evil either. He genuinely wants to support the other people, but his roundabout way of doing things unintentionally creates obstacles for the cast.

Yes glitch I'm SOOO excited for the next episode

Love that Michael Kovach has become the voice of every "bratty snide smarmy smiley typically lanky or twinkish (and usually not fully human) male side character in an animated show pilot on youtube" .... It is surprisingly not such a niche category of character, but he's still managed to get a pretty strong chokehold on the role in the industry, it would seem

Absolutely loved it! Amazing animation and designs, bravo! Fun cast of characters too. I hope we get a lot more!

This is, hands down, the most exciting thing I have seen in a long time.

OVER 300 MILLION VIEWS IN SIX MONTHS ALREADY?!?!?! No wonder putting effort on making it look like a kid's show attracted already a big chunk of the planet's kids.

This is fucking fun without having to resort to cheap jokes and still with many influences that can be seen and a colorful world taken from a children's series with charismatic characters with a dark background without having to be edgy, a real delight, let's hope they get more things out of this digital world.

When a show has its own jingle that works both in a jovial epic and creepy settings you know it’s got love from the music director.

My friend and I have this theory that the gloinks attacked Zooble because she tried to swear.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1324">22:04</a> I just got what "spoiled" means. He's talking about the unfinished adventure maps he's preparing!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1407">23:27</a> Man, poor Pomni. Looks like she's about to burst into tears any second now. Not only did she have to hide from a Lovecratian nightmare on her first day, it was all the while chasing an exit door she thought was real... only to be told it was something Caine made. Wasn't done out of malice but still doesn't hurt any less. Let's just hope she can recover from this.

All the actors here did such an incredible job but I'd like to give my personal kudos to Lizzie Freeman as Pomni. I genuinely don't think I've ever heard a performance that was so simultaneously hilarious, horrifying, and heartcrushingly sad. She really nails the vibe that Pomni is/was a completely random person who's been abducted into a true nightmare scenario, and you really REALLY feel for her and want to see her be okay.

I heard about this since the first few weeks when the fandom blew up and couldn't get past the first five minutes on my first watch but holy shit, I don't regret giving it a second try at all! this is awe-some! I can't wait for the second episode!

Imagine finding you'll spend eternity being a paranoid chess piece with mismatched eyes

“You didn’t experience a GAME SHOW in there, did you??” That’s such a good callback to Gooseworx’ running gag of doing that when characters get eaten.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="628">10:28</a> The “Kubrick Stare" is one of Stanley Kubrick's most recognizable directorial techniques, a method of shot composition where a character stares at the camera with a forward tilt, to convey to the audience that the character in question is at the peak of their derangement.

I can't believe this was more popular than "Who Let the Chomp Out?".

Ngl, I would be down for being sucked into a digital world and live purely for shenanigans. Cause atleast there is no homework. Or deadlines. Or the crushing weight of being alive but barely have the time to enjoy it.

Not too many people have actually been in that stereotypical isekai place where you say to yourself "this is a dream, that's the only explanation," and then you realize that it's not a dream, and in that moment you don't know what's real anymore. But Pomni's reaction to it seemed the most real I've ever seen. Oh and especially her portrayal at the end.

I love how Kane isn't your usual "British and wants to make a deal for your soul" type of character. It's a nice fresh take.

An idea for future episodes is that whenever a character walks into a different room for a split second you can see the other characters in that room tposing as a reference to old games when you load a new area and the models are tposing

I watched this video 1000 times, but I never got bored. It's legendary, please, episode 2, please ❤❤

This show gives me a ONE feeling, people being transported to a small strange place against there will, slowly going insane from it. I can’t wait to see more of the digital circus and the outside world around it.

I know it's already settled with the inspiration of "I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream", but you know what? This whole pilot is REALLY bringing me great vibes of Courage the Cowardly Dog. It may never happen, but I would love if Glitch is going with that style too: Scary and funny things happen most of the time, but it also has it's rare moments or beautiful gems that you didn't expect from a horror comedy show.

Anyone else has just found out that they have added DUBING into their show?! Actually insane!

I was thinking about this in 3D! All the amazing graphics are really good. Also, 3D glasses are red and blue like Pomni!

I love Pomni's smile at the end so much. The most forced of forced smiles. Finally getting to acceptance that there is no escape, no convenient exit door that leads to freedom and if you obsess over finding your escape you could end up like Kaufmo. So smile...smile and bury the pain as insanity surrounds you. Survive.

Can we just say that this thing has only been on UKposts for just under a month and it’s already surpassed hazbin hotel as (probably) the highest viewed pilot on UKposts?

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="628">10:28</a> this is the embodiment of how I feel of every waking hour of every day

Who knew that players that are trapped in a digital world is the best thing you ever seen.

This show is absolutely unhinged and terrifying at the same time. The running thru hallways was unnerving and the Pomni smiling at the end was unnerving. How have you made it so sick and disturbing at the same time? So cool, definitely want to watch later installments

This is so fun! I like how each character seems to be coping with the world they've been dropped onto in a different way. Ragatha is clearly trying to make the best and in denial whereas Jax is more cynical and doesn't seem to believe it's of much consequence, Kinger is much more anxious about things. As for the rest, I'm sure they'll be developed more in due time!

Wow this is amazing, keep up the good work goose works and glitch this is amazing it taught me how to be happy 😊😊😊

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="966">16:06</a> I loved Ed Bosco / Amir Talai 's cameo voice here

dude it's been like less than two weeks and there's already this much support. Please let this become a proper show or something.

Wonderful, introduces the world and characters perfectly and sets up some intriguing mysteries. Would love to see more, congratulations to the whole team

Ej oglądam to dzisiaj z polskim dubbingiem, i aż mnie zdziwiło że jest taki dobry. But the english dubbing is still my favourite, really, the voice actors did an amazing job (amazing digital job). Nie mogę się już doczekać odcinka 3 maja!!! Czekałam na to od dnia premiery pierwszego odcinka Edit: Mam nadzieję że następny odcinek TADC też dostanie polski dubbing, bo aktorzy głosowi są tu CUDOWNI (moje osobiste zdanie) Edit #2: Sorki za tak długą rozprawkę napisałam, pozdrawiam osoby które to nadal czytają (jeśli są takie)

Sooooo excited for episode two!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel like the cast of “characters” are all pretty accurate to their situation. I feel like each one has a different way of coping with the endless digital place they’re trapped in. Kaufmo, by literally going insane Jax, coping with comedy, sarcasm, etc. Pomni, literal denial Ragatha, by helping others instead of worrying about it. Kinger, being.. him Gangle, by just actually being mega depressed about it. And Zooble, by straight up not caring I wonder what we’ll see in the future of this series, it’s really well written I think, also very very funny when it tries to be, and serious when it needs to be.

I love how Glitch used the Cartoon-ey animation style to the fullest, like Jax's face, the entire thing Caine has going on, and Pomni's eyes sometimes being scribbles. It really helps the contrast with Kaufmo when he abstracts.

JUST 12 DAYS MORE FOR THE SECOND EPISODE!!!!! YEAHHHH

This makes a lot of sense, pomni was wearing a vr and it’s called amazing digital circus 😂

Y'know it's weird, I can't remember the last time I loved a digital project like this so much I was already having mixed feelings. Knowing it can probably go only so far between funding and effort, but wishing it could last SO many episodes.

I didn’t expect this to be a psychological horror. You can really feel the despair. I wonder if this is more of a silent hill type of thing, meaning each character has their own interpretation of the “circus”?

Me encanta que ♦️esté basado en No tengo Boca, pero debo Gritar ♦️Clowncore ♦️ Referencias a Backrooms y Espacio Liminal ♦️Muchas mujeres y sexo-disidentes en distintos roles ♦️ diferentes formas de expresar el Arquetipo del "Loco"/"Bufón" ♦️ Referencias Biblicas ♦️Pomni ♦️ <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="590">09:50</a> La Expresividad de los personajes ♦️✨Gangle Wet Kitty✨

Damn this is so good, i cant wait for the next episode the beginning of may (may 3)

As someone who has recently gotten into 3D animation for school, it's honestly just pure fun seeing some of the parts where the models were either played around with for some borderline goofy animations or straight up partially broken/stretched out for the sake of the story..... ....mainly because those things are all VERY fun to to after you've spent god knows how long preparing a model to me animated

i kinda adore Caine, he seems to actually care enough, sure he has no clue what they’re feeling because he’s actually a part of the game unlike the other characters but he still really wants them to feel safe and ok. when he’s talking at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="335">5:35</a> (roughly) he seems actually kinda upset that he can’t help them with their own minds, he might actually like control but he also cares. his personality is also great, he’s such a bubbly little guy.

Things this video has more views than: - Hazbin Hotel Pilot - Addict Music Video - Quite a few MrBeast videos And soon, it'll have more views than "Me at the zoo"

REWATCHING THIS BEFORE EP 2 RELEASESSSSS

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="657">10:57</a> I just realized this and people have most definitely commented on this, but jax having keys to everyone's room and saying "you've all been fine" is just implying (in my opinion) that he's been checking on everyone to make sure they are okay. Since there have obviously been those who lost it, so it's honestly sweet that since he has keys he checks on everyone. While still pranking them as well, he does care and worry for them. (Someone pointed out in the comments) It also means that he is most likely looking for a way out as well, since he mentions that he has keys to everything/everywhere it wouldn't be surprising if he's been trying to find an exit, he just hasn't mentioned such since the others would assume he's starting to loose it

Everyone's voice acting is absolutely superb! Love how each of the character's have their own little visual tics, such as Caine's eyes retreating into his jaw when he's obviously caught in a lie. Wow...the delicious blend of vivid visual color with splashes of blink-and-miss-it horror come together so well. Bravo!!!

So excited for may 3rd!! We all await for candy canyon!!

This is first and only video which I’ve seen the audio feature for different languages.

I love this show, it's a surreal and terrifying exploration of insanity without the 'backstory' cliche, making anyone watching feel like they might go insane with them.

It isn't much, and I don't have much, but I purchased a Pomni plush just to try and help fund for that full season. This is a wonderful project, an amazing step in 3D animation. Caine is literally a 3d modeling and design marvel that 100% needs to be studied by future generations of 3D artists. You've successfully figured out how to use both his mouth for talking and for showing facial expression at the same time, without compromising the audio dubbing. It still thoroughly feels like he's talking, while the mouth can not only be raised or lowered to show expression, but also using the eyes with cartoonish gestures and movements to show expression without an eye socket just shows an expertise at design and direction. Extremely well done.

The amazing digital circus I love it so much

A mí me encantaron los peluches y también me gusta la combinación de terror y colorido

I absolutely love the orchestrated version of the Digital Circus theme at the end and how it manages to take the light hearted theme of the show and give it ominous implications that something is definitely not right.

Kinger's reference to Gooseworx's habit of putting gameshows in the belly of various monsters was a great callback. The comedic use of rule-of-three, the intriguing mystery surrounding the circus, the edutainment game feel paired with the chaotic experience of an unfinished B-game. This animation is phenomenal.

In a long time I’ve watched this again! And surprisingly not really I’m just watching this because I want to experience so,thing before ep.2 comes out

I'm here for 1000 days now

Just noticed this on my third rewatch but as they’re passing the room doors we see not just NPC placeholders but previous characters crossed out; there’s one that looks to be a recolor of Kinger so perhaps he didn’t go in alone but his partner lost their mind along the way. I’m interested in learning more about the people who were abstracted.

I'll be honest: I had no idea who this was made by, or what it was, until I went and checked it out for myself. I had heard of it way prior to its actual release, I think? But I never saw anything about it until now. This is an absolute masterpiece, and I loved all of it. The animation feels alive, and concepts feel adapted very well into its own universe, as expected. I hope there's more to see soon, because I loved it.

Been a fan before even came out! I saw a video saying meet the gang and I was like oh this cool, I’ll watch this on release. Idk if you deleted the video but I can’t find it on your channel page but I was a fan of

I never thought I’d like this show as much as I did. The way they combined the goofy and colorful nature of some kids shows along with the feeling of psychological horror without any actual terrifying imagery amazes me. The characters themselves also feel very fleshed out and unique from one another! Keep it up, Glitch Productions!

That cutoff scream was incredibly funny, and the psychological horror was incredibly well executed. 10/10 pilot, hope there’s more

Best outro I’ve seen

when pomni gets her name cane say word that are too fast go to playback speed in settings and put it in 0.5

Honestly this is interesting. There’s always shows where people get sent to another world. But u never see em mentality handle it this poorly. Gives a sense of eerie realism to it

I haven't felt so bad for a horror protagonist in a very long time. A truly believeable character to root for. Hopefully if this continues, Pomni can at least find happiness.

Jax never fails making me laugh

Congratulations on the 307 million views great job to everyone who worked on it because it was very enjoyable.

Y’all are making some legendary pieces of art when it comes to online indie animation. Murder drones and now this? Truly a game changer. Great work guys!

Dude! It took last year's viral sensation, The Backrooms, pretty much two years to reach about 54 million views. Yet this managed to reach 54 million views in two weeks! That is absolutely insane on every level. Seriously, what magical contract did GLITCH sign to make this be so supernaturally influential?

The end is Awesome❤

I love this my fav character is gangle❤❤

Bro the orchestral version of the main theme soundtrack perfectly conveys how Pomni is feeling towards the end. It makes it all really sink it. You feel her terror, her helplessness, her acceptance to this absurd situation. This entire pilot was incredibly intriguing to watch. It's weird to put into words but the only way I can describe it is subliminal dread/terror. You feel that something terrible is about to happen but you don't really know why or don't understand why. Pomni is filled with despair as she is starting to accept her fate by the end of the episode but how she can be stuck in a digital world like this is beyond her comprehension. The entire situation is overwhelming as she feels helpless as all the others keep saying "you'll ge used to it". GIves me chills. Honestly an amazing soundtrack. It's incredible how much emotion one can convery without dialogue. Also I like how pomni basically went through the 5 stages of grief on the very first day of arriving there lol.

The character design and voice acting is phenomenal. I never imaging pupils could convey SO much. With the simpler textures to really play into the uncanny early 3d games were all familiar with, the pupils of, especially those of the maidespair

the creators: sure hope content farm doesnt mess this up... 10 seconds later

I can't wait till the very first season comes out!!!!

There is so much to unpack, I have no clue where to start. I love how gooseworx managed to capture the abstract terror of amnesia and the terror of the unknown. The characters are so charming. The hints to the lore like the hallway doors, Cofmo’s abstraction, the back rooms, the void, the computer Pomni recognized, the logo, so many secrets! I can’t wait!

I don’t know what to say about this but I absolutely love it, the characters and the world are so fun looking but they’re clearly deeper and more fleshed out than they look, it’s incredible

My favourite line is "It could be a completely unrelated question! You never know till it happens!"
