 Hello everybody, welcome back to nerdy draws, which also happens to be my second time recording because I forgot to plug in my power source That really sucks. So today we are drawing Alice from the game Alice Madness Returns Which if you guys don't know is my absolute favorite game of all time. I have not, oh, I didn't mean to do that I haven't played Alice American McGee's Alice yet, but I really really want to I just haven't found my game because it's been lost ever since I got I've been interested in the art book So I really need to find that so that I can actually get then get all the downloadable games because I can actually play on my Xbox one now. I also started Recording some game footage, so I might be doing that soon. I will I'm trying to Finish my own life is strange game and then play life is strange before the storm for this actual channel So look forward to that. That's an actual dead set plan So you guys don't have to worry about me not doing that But as soon as before the storm comes out and I have enough money to pay for it I will play that because it's an exciting game, but enough about other franchises Let's talk about this one because it is amazing So I got the art book a few days ago I'm actually gonna make a vlog on this so if anything sounds a little bit redundant It's because I didn't really anticipate what I was making or putting into the vlog So, you know, we'll just leave that up to chance So this book I gotta tell you guys even if you're not a fan of this game or of Alice Manusher turns if you love dark art or just in general Creativity this is absolutely the book for you and that absolutely sounds like I'm advertising for it But I'm serious when I mean that Some of it is really messed up But it you have to appreciate the amount of creativity that went into this game, you know when you're playing the game you You can definitely tell that they put effort into it like the coding itself leaves a little to be desired But the creativity you can tell because of like the detail that goes into certain worlds and enemies and stuff Of course, there are things that I do think that they could have done differently like maybe have less They didn't that's something I noticed is that they didn't have big boss fights Like I know they had colossal ruin Which by the way, if you guys don't know is the absolute bane of my existence I would highly recommend you looking it up because it sucks. It's the worst It's so annoying and big and angry and the music that it plays for that fight is fear-inducing Honestly, I listen to the soundtrack pretty often and whenever that song comes up. It terrifies me so And also the ending I won't give any spoilers But the ending I kind of wish was done differently I kind of wish she was a little more violent honestly than it was But you know, there's there's obviously things that I feel could have been changed that other people would appreciate Because this game was good and this game had a lot of goodness to it So I'm actually looking through the art book right now There were a lot of levels that they wanted to put in the game but couldn't because of like technical details So they had they had let's see a water level and the level where you could like walk Underside that no upside down where you could walk upside down which is pretty cool But they ended up not going with it, but um so Getting into the actual game itself first of all in my opinion it was really really fun to play I know a lot of people would disagree with that but I just found it super interesting and I'm a simple person who plays games that are easy for me And so this definitely was according to my liking now. They do have on the game They have this game they have this game mode called nightmare mode, which I've never played But according to my boyfriend, it's like playing dark souls, which I'm not ready for I don't think I'm gonna play nightmare mode I think I'm just gonna stay in my nice little cavity of a Happy fun simple easy playing But this game was ever since getting the art book It's actually really inspired me like it inspired me to change up my art styles a little bit. So if you follow me on my my um My art instagram I posted a couple art styles that I had actually tried out because of this game And I didn't really like a lot of them, especially the realism one that one is really ugly But I ended up coming with this one at the end. It was kind of a mesh of a bunch of different a bunch of Different elements for my other three drawings and I ended up really liking it. So that's why I decided to digitize it and The eyes were a little bit too big And I actually fixed this but I don't fix it in the speed pane because I sent it to my boyfriend and my boyfriend I asked him like what could I do better because it looks weird He was like well, maybe the eyes and I was like, yeah, dude true So I fixed the eyes a little bit, but you'll see it in the end drawing just not in the speed pane itself But this it was super inspiring especially because they're talking about In in the book they're talking about their process of how they like began with their creativity And it was really inspiring because they were like, oh we had art everywhere and I was like man, that would be great Man, if I could just draw so much that I had that much art that would be fantastic So as you can see I've got super hyped up for this art book. I got super hyped while reading it I got super hyped for the game itself. So I actually Really want to play that soon, which hopefully I will if I could play this for you guys. I would but I have Already played the game and usually the thing with uh playthroughs is that it's the element of surprise They usually people want to see you playing the game when you don't really know what's going on And I can't really provide that for people considering I've played this game three times And I'm super close to 100 percent That's just me bragging because I'm having a good time, but I can definitely say that this art book doesn't hold back on the boob Definitely not at all, but it's it's a great book and I would highly recommend anybody get it So like just look at previews online with some of the art that's in here. It's fantastic if You want inspiration. This is your place to go Also, the dresses in here were really really cool. The dresses in the game itself There is one dress that I find super Useless like let me see if I can find it in the book just so I can like reference the name of it I guess it doesn't have the name, but it's like the card dress or something I know I know what it looks like. I just can't remember exactly what it's called. It's like like card card something or other But it was it's kind of useless because you can get like up to 16 health in that game Actually, I think you can even do more depending on how many times you play it But you can get a lot of health and it reduces your health to like maximum four Which really sucks, especially when you're playing hard level bosses So that seems really useless the one I thought was actually really useful was I think it was the Ugh the steam dress because It drops more teeth when you kill an enemy And if you guys don't know teeth is the system that they use like point system that you can spend That you can spend on like upgrading your weapons and stuff That's also something I kind of wish they continued doing is making weapons Because I have a lot of teeth in that game since I played it three times And there is I got like 13,000 teeth and I have no weapons to upgrade or spend them on because I I upgraded all my weapons and I kind of wish I had more of that Like me me and my brother were kind of just going over ideas like If we could we would add this stuff because this game this game is so cool Imagine if you could like add what you wanted to it and just make it super perfect Like I I gotta give it to game coders, man. They they are good. They know lots and I've taken a coding class before I have actually taken Uh two years No, sorry one year of cc plus one year of html and css and one year of java. First of all I'd just like to say java sucks java can um Well, I have words for it that I won't say But I hate java html and css is honestly my favorite just because it's so easy and c++ is a little bit better But it was also really difficult for me I I know people would say differently, but If I could if I could code man, this this would be fun because I even brought up the idea because of this book of Like starting a game company with one of my friends because we all really like to draw and one of my friends is actually a really good coder So if she's watching this, hey, just a shout out You know who you are because I literally told you you were probably the only one I told about this idea So if you're listening to this then uh, yeah, you know who you are. Thank you very much for being so good at things But they had this this Book definitely tells a lot about some of the elements that are in the game That I kind of wish that they had done Like certain certain levels and all that But I appreciate the game for what it is. It is of course my absolute favorite game And while I have a lot of criticisms for it, I couldn't imagine Not having Alice the way it was it I got it. I think when I was way younger. I was like it was like in 2012 and My aunt had it and she didn't want to play it anymore. So she ended up just giving it to me And oh boy did I have a field day with this game. It was difficult. So I I finished it within A few months because that's how I play games usually But I finished it and it's one of the only one of the very few wrong games that I finished So we are coming to the end of this speed paint guys.
