Bardus Adventum

Share Collapse

Author Comments

The year is 3842 - the human empire has conquered almost all the known universe, all alien life across the galaxy has been enslaved, mass rebellion plagues every sector of space and, worst of all, the price of fuel is still a bloody rip off!


Our hero, Captain Leonidas Emmerich Fitzpatrick, has suffered a grave and embarrassing defeat and, despite his long and honourable career, is reassigned to the now ridiculed star ship (and it's equally ridiculous crew) the 'S.S Leviculus Pardus' in the most remote, most sordid sector of the universe.
Now this once respected military man must deal with a doped-up party animal for a first officer, a criminally insane chief of security, a malfunctioning robotic counsellor, a pair of drunken yobs in engineering and an ex-striper for a doctor, all aboard a vessel that might as well be held together with dried bug mucus and thumbtacks compared to every other ship out there. Join this insipid crew, and many more equally undesirable undesirables, as they struggle to survive in a very dangerous, very fast, very sticky universe. Boldly going where no one really gives a crap.
"Bardus Adventum" (meaning 'stupid adventure' in Latin) takes place in a universe where nothing is what it seems; behind every government there's a secret organization, behind every planet's surface there's an illegal weapons facility, and behind every community service broadcast there's a flatulent, amorphous blob thing with an inexplicable French accent.

Meh.

The animation could use alot more polishing but the story could have potential.

What on earth...

You've put it in the parody genre so maybe i just don't know what it's parodying but i honestly had no clue what was going on. I mean that has some charm to it, not knowing what's going to happen next, and not even knowing what just happened but a little context or characters to relate too or something might have been nice.
The music seemed a little out of place, western music for a space adventure? An epic swelling score for a blue bear being shot in the head? The whole thing was a little quality, did you export is a video and then reimport as a swf or soemthing? Also the animation was pretty damn rigid and it was all tweens, non of that juicy fbf that i like. Anyhow i guess this whole thing was just lost on me, yet somehow kept me interested...

idc but

whats the name of the music in the beginning
