This makes me happy and sad at the same time.

Official Trailer for the Story of Khale
Edit: FRONT PAGE!! Thank you Tom!!
For all of you who are wondering about a game, a street fighter style fighting game is already in the works! So don't worry about that =D
This animation is meant as an introduction to the world and overall plot of the Story of Khale, a series that is in production. I've been working on the concepts and story for this series for over five years now, but two years ago I found that flash animation would be its perfect medium. You might notice huge changes in style and skill throughout the animation; this is because I've used this trailer to practice animation over the past two years, before I jump into the final product: the series.
Khale is a boy who is sent to war. While marching south through the mountains of Jharbon, he finds a sword. While the sword grants Khale tremendous power, he soon finds that power can easily change a person. While Khale struggles with this new dilemma, the greedy attempt to steal his power for themselves...
I hope you all enjoy it!
Thank you,

That was both amazing and epic. Fantastic job!
I found this again after so many years. How I wish this had become a thing. It seems you don't post anymore. But if you still get on Newgrounds at all, know that there are still plenty of people out there that would come back to this and support it in any way they can.
I myself would offer whatever I could to help this see the light of day in real, full fledged episodes. It's still a beautiful animation, and potential story, even today.

Wow, that really means a lot to me. Thank you :) I'm less active on Newgrounds, but if you want to see my newest stuff, check out my patreon: patreon.com/leafworthy
GOD DAMN, what happened, man! So much potential, so much work! SO CLOSE! This looked like it was going to be one of Newground's most epic and largest series, ever. I suppose it probably fell through for the same reason anything similar else has: it's too big, too ambitious. The skill is there! From art, to illustration, to animation and even your choices for sound (although not original) were good... But the task is massive and daunting, and alone, or even with a small team, things happen. I feel as though this idea died, and I really hope it didn't, but I will always remember it. As it was, as it is, and as it could have been.
Somebody send this to naughtydog :D
