Loved this. Powerful, beautifully rendered storytelling. Tremendous job.

Thank you Bleak-Creep!
Oh my god, this captures it perfectly. My first time was back in 2010 and I still remember it so well. I was a sophomore in college and it was such a huge boost in some much needed confidence at the time. The attention that short got really inspired me to keep going with writing and animating.
Very cute, wonderful job.
Ah nice! Glad to hear how much it motivated you. Gotta check out the short some time
Love this. Great artstyle, strong storytelling, and the music is absolutely spectacular.
Thank you so much for the feedback and for watching :)
All of your short little scenes have such a warmth and charm to them, and always leave me wanting more. Nice work, very cute.
Glad you think so! Consider it an elongated Christmas special. Creating all of these little animations to post for a month was pretty time consuming. I'm glad that they are being well received.
Utterly gorgeous work all around. Your animation, color palettes, and compositions are all A+ stuff. Very excited to see how this turns out in the end.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!
Your work is also really good!
Wish there were more to it, but I appreciate the breakdown stuff, and it looks great. Doing micro sorts of movements are always pretty tricky to get just right, but you really pulled it off, and there's a lot of life in the animation.
Thanks. I haven't really animated like this in years, this was my first time using Clip Studio's animation tools. So it was mostly a practice piece.
I'm also sorta new to Newgrounds -- would it be more appropriate to post something short like this under the "Art" tab, and render them out as animated GIFs? I'm kinda getting the vibe that the "Movies" tab is more so intended for stuff with more direction/plot/punchlines.
I want to make sure I'm categorizing this stuff correctly, and hope I'm not setting people up to expect more from a simple clip/loop.
Audio is pretty uneven, but otherwise, the writing is great, and the satire is spot on.
Well, it was composed and twice corrected/exported in just one afternoon so I see your point. Glad you liked the animation! Buhl is great and very talented, you should check out his other works.
Really like the colors and character designs here.
Thank you 👀👀👌
Wow, that's some good stuff right there. It's simple, but that doesn't detract from the power of the storytelling. Nicely done.
thanks man <3
Love watching the various ways these guys still manage to get around despite their hideously deformed bodies. Great stuff.
Thanks! :D

I write sad stories (with hope!) and then animate them in cute pastels to lull you into a false sense of security.
