I have to say, the visuals are quite interesting and I like the tension/uneasiness of it all. The only part I don't like as much is the sound design. The dialogue is too quiet in contrast to the high-pitch frequencies throughout the video that are rough on the ears, in which I have to consistently adjust the volume of my speakers.

However, I love to see more stuff like this, as I can only see improvement from here!

JPSantoroArt responds:

I appreciate your feedback and will definitely take it into consideration when mixing future dialogue. I'm glad you enjoyed the shorts and I can see on speakers with so many sounds it could be difficult to hear. I had a feeling I should've turned her up a little more.

Thank you!

I mean, visually the backgrounds are detailed and tweened correctly, and the characters' animations look okay (minus bulb barely moving its legs despite running), but the setup and payoff end up flat. There's no reaction from any of the two characters before Hoss rolls in, everything is immediate with no transition. Also, what is the joke? - The fat guy just kills and eats them, and that a goat scream plays?
You have the potential to make great things for sure! You just need to work on the comedic aspect of your videos, with better timing and payoff. One tip I could give: build up to something, only to trick the viewer into showing something else that is downright absurd.

Anonymous-Frog responds:

I agree, not the best joke in the world. First time animating in 60FPS with no time to come up with anything aside from “Indiana Jones boulder”. Plus I got canceled on Twitter which really fucked with my head near the end.

I don't exactly get what this is. Is there a story or is it just a slideshow of decent video effects? Also, i didn't even realize there was audio when i first played this.

Psy35 responds:

so me and my pal had a weird convo on a discord server, and I animated it, also yeah sorry for the audio, I think my volume settings made it sound fine to me, but I dont think that rings true for others

Your animation is some pretty inspiring stuff! I have checked some of your other videos and you've come a loooooong way! Fantastic work! :)

OrganizedApeShape responds:

Hey thanks mangle, we should go to the hopshop.

Can't wait to see what you have next! You could make some great story-telling with this expertise!

IncendiaryStarfish responds:

Thank you so much mate!! That really means a ton! <3

This has some potential and it looks like a lot of effort went into it, but the story isn't too captivating so far and the animation and character designs don't really fit with the serious tone this series is going for.

On the other hand, I enjoy some of the little effects like the smoke, the ships' firing, and anything that shows off the destruction and chaos done to this poor village!

Hopefully, you can make a bigger impact in the succeeding episodes!

9Hammer responds:

Thank you for giving your thoughts on this Jooshington! I'll take these into consideration going forward with this series.

Yeah I know that feeling! lol

This was pretty amusing and kind of adorable!

Alyxandr responds:

Thank you! Part 2 is in the process of being made!

I think the effects are cool. Did you make this or did a computer make the animations for you?

HotlineOfficial responds:

I make art and animations for nobody.
