Welcome to a show of existential crisis and horror. I also recommend you watch Murder Drones, as well. Which is also created by Glitch.

For all the questions about "who is this aimed for", the founders Luke and Kevin have mentioned that they wanted to use GLITCH to fill the really specific niche of "indie animation directed toward teens and young adults" (since animation is typically either made entirely directed to kids, or made to intentionally break that status quo by being exceptionally R-rated) with the added accessibility and convenience of being a web series. Personally, I like to think of The Amazing Digital Circus and Murder Drones as the two opposite sides of that coin. Where TADC's charm comes from its cartoonish style hiding its dark, nihilistic, cosmically horrifying context and circumstances, Murder Drones thrives in its ability to perfectly balance extremely goofy and self-aware humor underneath the incredibly well-crafted dark story and environments. Also, Murder Drones perfectly embodies and stretches the idea of "it's not gore if it's robots instead of people", and REALLY comes close to the line without crossing it. I can't recommend any series more than these two. (also PS hazbin isn't made by GLITCH but some of their people are involved with both, if i'm not mistaken)

Have you read "I have no mouth and I must scream"? Well, it's like the inspiration for this serie...

Caine's not really evil. He just doesn't understand humans. He's an AI.

Hazbin Hotel isn't GLITCH, it's from VivziePop. But the voice actor of Angel Dust (Pilot) does voice Jax too

"Damn the Credits are short!" "Why was there such a long Gap until Part 2?" I'll let you figure this one out yourself xD

The VA for Jax is the Pilot VA of Angel Dust

"You know what's funny? Someone THOUGHT of this." Really sums the whole thing up, doesn't it. Also you've NAILED what Caine was doing with the door - he's just not capable of thinking of 'outside' except as a distant, impossible abstract. Also also, you're right, she's known these people for a couple of hours at most - but when it zooms out to the outside view of the computer they're in, No One's Sat There Wearing The Headset. So where'd she go? - Unanswered as yet. But it's probably the second most horrifying question, right behind How Many People Are In That Abstraction Victim Cellar.

You spent the whole being confused and having trouble following along, and yet, you instantly hit the nail on the head with Caine and The Exit. I'm genuinely impressed.

Glitch is made by the people who run the YouTube channel SMG4, a Gmod animation channel. They have been around since 2011 and has 8mil subscribers

Pomni's VA, Lizzie Freeman, also voices Yianfei from Genshin and Sparkle from Star Rail. She's also a VA for many other characters in English dub anime and games

An interesting fact is that POMNI's name translates as "remember" in Russian language. It is also one of the few studios that provide Russian voice acting at the start. Russian community appreciates this very much!

looking forward for ep. 2!!!!

I agree, I think Caine isn’t evil but an ai/program that doesn’t fully grasp the situation. He’s designed to make the game fun, so he keeps building new features/adventures, he protects them from their minds abstracting at seeing the void & he fixes the glitches/quarantines those that are fully abstracted. Yet he doesn’t comprehend the mental strain on a person, like what exactly an exit/leaving is. He thinks it’s to go somewhere but has no actual understanding that humans are meant to come & go, that humans aren’t meant to be turned digital. Plus the exit door has 2 major things. Caine’s exit door was red with the arrow facing right. The one Pomni saw outside the grounds was orange & the arrow facing left. I think there is in fact an actual door that can get the humans out, put only Pomni can see it cos she is the actual key to unlock it. My theory is that Pomni will be the one to convince Caine what an exit actually is/or the metal toll that’s on the humans being stuck here. Maybe Pomni can be the one to help prevent & possibly reverse abstraction, freeing all the others who’ve been sent to the cellar. I might be wishful thinking but Pomni strikes me as someone who deserves a happy ending, or at least someone who should get to escape going insane/trapped.

Glitch is run by the same people who run SMG4. They wanted to give creators with big dreams a chance to realize their dreams of creating their own shows. Murder Drones has Liam Vickers as a showrunner. He's an animator and storyteller here on Youtube specializing in comedy and horror. The Amazing Digital Circus has Gooseworks as a showrunner. She's a youtuber who dips her hands in animation, music and storytelling. She made some music for Hazbin hotel if I am not mistaken.

In case you know the story "I have no mouth and I must scream", lots of people expect this to go in a very similar direction, so be prepared.

The reason why there was a 6 month gap was because episode 1 was a pilot to see if it would pop off like there previous work Murder Drones which was super successful, and started production after they saw the results.

To give you a "Glitch" rundown: It's an animation company made by two brothers, Luke and Kevin Lerdwichagul. The former started the YouTube channel SMG4 in 2009 I think, creating simple Super Mario 64 Machinima videos. While he kinda still does thag all the way up until now, his videos kept growing. Eventually he started using GMod to make parts of his videos, and eventually even got into full professional 3D Animation. Somewhere along the way, his brother also got on board and they wanted to create a full animated, original 3D Series. That's Meta Runner, their first main original work. That too originally started on the SMG4 channel. But once they became more and more popular, they eventually created a whole animation company, even getting funded by the Australian government among many others. While they're both part of the company, by now, Luke, the creator of SMG4 is moreso concerned with keeoing THAT going (to huge success as well, having grown the show to be it's own worthy series rather than "just SM64 machinima"), while his brother Kevin seems to be mainly keeping up their company, which, while plenty big and successful before, just made their BIG breakthrough with The Amazing Digital Circus. Which, just like Murder Drones, is a show that was technically not created by them, but by an independent artist that joined with Glitch to make their show a reality. Sunset Paradise - to mention the final missing puzzle piece - is kind of a "Spin-Off" series to "SMG4". Being it's own story that works on it's own, but being all about the "vacation" of a popular character that came from (and returned to) the SMG4 cast.

Pls do murder drones it’s another glitch masterpiece
