Another really awesome intro! :D Maybe not as long as... well, the longest, but the quality level... feels like you really surpassed earlier work with this one. Impressive. All flows together so perfectly too, fine-tuned and fluent. Nice work all.

The square's not so square after all. :) But more so: the circle came to terms with it too... such a simple premise but: kinda emotional ending nevertheless... the music probably chips in quite a bit too. I wonder how all of this would've been with real characters though, in a way it feels like shapes might've been used just to simplify, but then again they are a creative bit too, and it's like they create a story from what could've been a basic platformer element too in their current form. All pretty nice after all. Do like the shifting textures too.

Thank you so much for your response. I'm glad it's resonating with all emotionally who watch it.
Doing my Diploma was an amazing learning experience for me, letting me know that story is everywhere, and characters are all around, even rocks! So this was a challenge for me, and luckily, I learnt during my Diploma days that I FRIGGEN LOVE challenges.
This song really reminds me of some other song hmm... can't quite place it. Is there any intentional reference? Enjoying the twists here, fun twists in the beginning with the ear, the room, etc but... it took a dark turn towards the end there! Is that... death? Depression? The always-present darkness just waiting to consume us if we fall? If is there but... the world's not all bleak and black either! 19: it's just the beginning! Happy Birthday somehow doesn't seem that suitable to say right now but eh... hope you had one. Somewhat.
Anyway this was really well-done. Simple animation, but well-paced and smooth, good pace, good music (I mean your voice isn't amazing but: with that guitar it's not bad!), a really ominous finale too... nice sound design for the new partner too... interesting to see what kind of presence he might have in next year's animation. The LazyMuffin inspiration seems clear btw but I'm glad you're doing these too. Could be a fun wave for a lot of artists to jump on.

Thanks a lot dude. Happy to know that you enjoyed it.
For anyone who wants to see the tool part of the process the watermarks block things a bit, but otherwise: pretty smooth speedpaint.

thank you, this will be something i'll keep in mind next time i make a video
Ah so it was a floor... not a wall, and she wasn't entirely oblivious as to those little critters either! And also... that orb. :O
However did they get into such a predicament I'm not sure, but Chutney origins revealed... dark origins! Is this... the true story. O_O Also holy shit look at all those Patrons! This is getting out of control. Fan art. Unused footage. Each one of these is becoming like a whole universe in itself. Retribution's... coming in the next one? After a late-night snack like that: there's bound to be nightmares.
Gotta love how you just never know how these'll go, and this is getting refreshingly experimental and out of context too... if it ever was in context.

Dinosaur Boy suddenly turned into a real detective fiction/murder/noir type drama. XD Two characters coming together though... bound to get interesting in the next one! Seems a bit shorter this one btw. Not that I mind. Long enough to be entertaining still. Looking forward to seeing where this all goes!

We progressively get weirder, looking forward to what you hear on the next few episodes! The next one is a huge downer, and the fourth episode contains the weirdest scene I have ever written in the past three years of screenwriting. Should be an interesting ride.
In terms of length, I think episode two is the shortest of the season. Episode three clocks in at around six and a half minutes, episode four is around eight minutes and episode five is still in the editing bay. I like to believe that every episode is as long as it has to be.
Thanks for the review man! Looking forward to hearing what you think about the next one :)
Was expecting that too take a totally different turn when they both started mutually spelunkin' there... gotta love the imaginative unpredictability here. Spelunkin' With Duncan was more fun than I thought it'd be.

Still going with that spectacular glossy glass-eyed style hmm. :) With some unconventional visual combinations. Still working, though not as amazing as it was the first times around... but still good. Maybe the plotline here just: isn't as masterful as the most masterful ones. But still entertaining.
-cd-
An ocean of tears... wouldn't that be salt water, though? XD Well. I do like how unexpected that was. All in all the little details really made for entertaining twists here, like the side mirror, the photos, the poster, the smoke cloud after the cowboy (though it disappears oddly quickly),the rocket, the stick and horse just jumping off that cliff... oh man, the little details make for some real mastery here! It doesn't go the way you expect it to at all, and both those bits and the timing, and creative angles with which everything comes together... perfection.
Might be one of my favorites of all time this one. Love the style too. Subtle but unconventional wit, quality animation and sound design, and a good pace... and no words! It goes beyond the need for languages. Love everything about it.
Hopefully the end is far from neigh too, and this is just the beginning!
