Wow, thanks for the front page! My first one too! Also thanks for the weekly user's choice and daily feature award!
Man, I tried. I really tried to compress the file as much as I can, but I didn't want to mess up the overall quality.
This alone was 8.7 mb, so I had done my best to shrink it. I could only get a 6mb something. Dammit!
Shite, I hadn't been submittin for over a year now. Been busy with life, been practicing my art skills over and over. Practice my FBF, coloring, as well as timing and movement in flash. I just hoped it had paid off.
If you guys don't get what's going on:
On your mark is all about a race, dealt in stereotypical manner. We have the turtle and the rabbit, the kangaroo who resembles the boxing pride of many kangaroo and the hyena (who seems like he's high on marijuana as usual), the lion king and the giraffe (don't ask.) The plot is like the old cartoon classics where there the story takes place in a forest/jungle and theres a race between the turtle and rabbit. Here, more mockery is added.
This flash was meant for my portfolio I could use in the future, so its from a high quality and high size flash file I'm working. My goal was to make the animation push the limits of flash, as well as the fact that we can achieve film quality animation. I was planning to submit the flash as one whole, but according to the file size, I won't be able to do that here on Newgrounds. So I decided that I would split it into two parts and then submit this one first!
So there you have it. Enjoy!
