I'm a big fan of the really angular slightly rough art style, the backgrounds are all beautiful and I really like the use of vibrant, simple, contrasting colors within the scenes. The animation is very well handled in how few frames were used in some places to really give it a unique weight in the timing.

As for the writing, I have to say it was hard at times to see where the jokes were, and when it was apparent the timing of the punchline felt off. I don't know if this is a personal preference, but I have to say that references to social media should function more as platform for the setting of the story or the joke being told, rather than being the joke itself. With the growth of social media over time the type of jokes that just use hashtags as punchlines, for example, have become so common place they feel cliched.

Glad you like our look! Sorry our humour wasn't your bag, but I'm sure you'll like some of our other works that are soon to come!

the animation is really good, probably better off being submitted to the art portal as a looped animation though

FabioGioffre responds:

thanks for the advice, i think your right lol.

i bet you think you're cool for making fun of fnaf but i bought this game and i still play it

Shoocharu responds:

I think I'm awesome.
Not for making fun of fnurf, but just in general.
The only reason I made fun of this game is because it was relevant. People talked about it alot. That's how this works. That's why people parody stuff.
Good for you for buying the game and playing it.

The framing and all the shots were really solid as well as the animation, top notch dude!! The one thing that seemed a little off was the audio quality, in some parts of the video it was a little difficult to understand what you were saying. There are loads of video tutorials online that can really help you improve your audio quality, also maybe consider getting a slightly better microphone?

The 'Snowball' microphones are half decent and only run you about $50, its a good place to start and should be an improvement over the one you have now... I'm including a link to Amazon.com where you can check out Snowball microphones, and if you want you can go to another part of the website to check out other kinds of microphones if you wanted!! They also have lots of good music, kitchen utensils, groceries, hardware, clothes, and more!!

I'm sorry to say that even though most of your video was totally spot on, I feel as though I can only give you 4.5 stars out of 5 because of the lacking audio. I really hate to see great content overshadowed by small defects in production but until you improve the quality of the sound in your videos you aren't really producing 5 star content...I'm sorry!

Here's the link to Amazon.com where you can check out all kinds of home goods, including microphones...

robot-jones responds:

thanks alot i will try to buy one

Your ability as a writer is just really impressive, the way incorporated dark humor into otherwise sad or tough to swallow content ensured that it did not feel campy or played out, which, in my opinion, is a problem a lot of other content creators have when they attempt a slightly more serious tone. In comparison to your last entry I could also see a clear improvement in your animating, however I think there is still room to improve on this front. But all in all, I love your style.

Thanks man, I'm glad you liked it. I definitely have a long way to go with my drawing ability, I really need to learn how to draw anatomy. I did have fun with some of the character designs in this though, and visedgrub's VA was really fun to animate. I'm still trying to find my writing style, but I learned a lot in the process of making this. Thanks for the review, it put me in a better mood <3 Good luck with your entry, I'm dying to see what you guys all do with the theme.

I really like the dead pan humor, and the art style was nice too. You did a really good job maintaining a consistent tone through the cartoon. I would say that the animation could have been a little better but otherwise I really liked it.

jlorp responds:

I could give some excuses to why the animation is meh, but so i will. I sort of spent the first week or so brainstorming for a concept for the somewhat iffy theme, so I had to find a style I could do quickly having not animated for a few months. The "not having animated for a few months" is why the first shot doesn't look so great, I do feel like I figured out the style towards the end though, so I'm happy with most of it. Anyway, Thanks! I really appreciate the feedback.

I thought that the music was well done, I think it fit the eerie, cutesy mood very well. All of the FX animation was also really good.
I do have to say though, the writing felt like it was playing off a story I wasn't familiar with, like it was a parody for a something. The character animation wasn't bad, but given the limited character designs I think there could have been slightly more out going animation, either that or the character designs could have been a little more adventurous with the limited animation style. All in all it was cute and fun to watch.

RebellionFA responds:

Thanks! I wanted it to be simple for this certain animation, I asked people for character designs and chose the most fitting. I'll try and do what you said if ever I advance tho c :

The animation for this is really good, and I really have to give you credit for using Photoshop to do it. I'd love to see something like this with more inbetweens, maybe done in Flash so you don't want to kill yourself by the end of it.

SuperBastard responds:

Thanks, and actually it wasn't so bad working in PS since I find it so much better for drawing. I'll likely do more animation in Photoshop in the future.

damn boy whatchu got ther
