huge respect for the amount of effort you put in, and the result is amazing! two things I noticed were a few mixels (pixels with different sizes put together) mainly in the big eyeball, which can stand out. and a couple of frames where the camera movement is inconsistent, sometimes freezing, changing speed, or even going back. but if you're manually shifting the layers on every frame it can be easy to miss, god knows it's happened to me too when I tried to do the same thing before xD but yeah, great job overall

Thanks for the incisive comments! You're right, I think those two areas definitely stand out as areas to improve for another time. Really appreciate you picking those out and evaluating it. Ta muchly ❤︎

Thank you so much!! We took different paths to the underworld in our pieces but we both travelled the depths, so high fives to us!

This is like a pixel short film, this is awesome! I love how seamlessly you go between light in the sun, dark under the ocean, and how the contrast is low as we’re pulled through the murky water and then high contrast as we’re confronted by the big scary eye. You portray, peace, fear, helplessness, confrontation, and the feeling of finally getting a breath of air, all in just a few frames! Excellent stuff, I can tell a lot of effort and polish was put into this ❤︎

The animation is fluid, the colors are beautiful, and the idea is also just great!!

Thank you so much! For an underwater piece I definitely could've made the movement feel more fluid but it was a good ol' effort.
