Great! The big legs character is cool!!
What you should improve it the first level background repetitive scroll. It has a annoying step when reload the cycle. Maybe it was the desired result but it could be as smooth as you want.
Keep it up!

Great outro, I love it! The only thing that bothers me is the jumping fence, it seems out of sync, did you do some sort of cycle?

really cool - but yeah i'm with ulrik - the fence is jarring! it does half a step then flicks back to the wrong colour...

Thanks. Yep. Gotta get that fence fixed. It does stutter quite badly. Also need to fix the walk and make the text bigger.

finally i could see it.
same thing, the jumping fence.

i like it. the longer legs remind me the longer legs which appear in neomikey (my head is not much ingenious).
did you make the music?

Nope. Got the music from FLASHKIT.COM they got great loops.

Saw some awesome long legs HERE:

As usual, very good. Of course you'll fix the jumping fence and the jumping water ...

And maybe some blinks of the big character. The smaller ones don't need them, they're too small to recognise that.

Looking forward to seeing the finished cartoon. If this gets into any film festivals I'll be sure to vote(assuming they take online polls.)

Thanks Darth. I'm doing the main animation, taking my time with it. Looking pretty good. Been doing this thing for months now. ehe. Any idea where there's a place that gives some idea of the animation festivals going down? Only one I know about is Annecy.

I don't know too much about animation film festivals either, Annecy is obviously the biggest, but I'd definitely recommend submitting your work to Nickelodeon's festival(which I plan to do myself next year), since your style and humor seems to fit their portfolio. Some festivals favor the non-commercial art gallery crowd, but your stuff belongs in the "commercially viable watch on tv" group. I'd do some research on google to find out which is what. Happy Land should be out there fighting for a spot.
