Closing Thoughts…
I was a huge fan of The Amazing Digital Circus, and now after seeing the trailer for The Gaslight District, I’m super stoked to watch the pilot episode!
The trailer for The Gaslight District looks amazing! The animation is smooth and I love the color palette they choose: the use of greens, dark yellows, oranges, reds, blues, and purples – they all fit so well together and give off a nighttime, crime city feel!
I really enjoyed the song that plays in the background, it’s got a sort of haunting, bittersweet melody that works together with the animation of the trailer to give the viewer a cinematic experience! All in all, I’m excited to learn more about this world and where the story takes us!
Lie. Cheat. Deceive. Cement.
The Gaslight District pilot episode premieres on April 18, 2025, only on Glitch’s Youtube channel.
