Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

*UPDATE* Hundreds I mean literally hundreds of people are asking me about the music. The most common question is, who made them? It says on the credits... The holiday OST by Hans Zimmer.....
The songs used:
"Anything can Happen"
"Cry"
"Maestro"

*Warning. This is graphic heavy. Medium Quality is recommended... and flash 8 player*

Yeah I know, you guys haven't seen me do stuff for over a year now... Most of my stuff usually goes on other forums and my DeviantArt page.

Don't expect too much of this one, it does not have any complex full frame by frame animation like my On Your Mark p.1 for example. It's more supposed to be more of an emotional/moody experience, rather than having an all crazy action here and there footage.

This is based on an online comic from DeviantArt, simply called the "Balloon comic" by Emmy Cicierega!

Her comic style is hard to imitate for me in my opinion. I did the first 3 pages, but overall, I screwed up the designs. You can read the rest of the story here and see how it ends, its a great read.

Reviews

Between fantasy and reality, with music of beauty and characters of action and circumstance.

The animation was equisite and with unique style, the choice of story and its execution is remarkable, and the music really breathed life into the flash.

A+++ would watch again.

Also, the bird kind of looked like a peep. At the end anyway.

Amazing animation regardless.

It was very original.
But the thing was it was brilliant.
I've not seen anything like this.
This is the first one like this I have seen.
The flash was excellent.
If I had my way I would give you King Of The Portal for this.
Oh and Frontpage forever.

Which is really all we ask for, but you deliver with great animation, very interesting artwork, and wonderful sound that works together to capture your audience. Very well done and I'd love to see more.

the music, the style, and what it's based on makes this a wonderful animation. You have some taste by the way you made it. You should try getting a publisher to make a dvd or something, idk, good job. good luck.
