I understand where you're coming from. Everything was intentional. You see, this is a continuation of an old series called "Grick's Day Out" (also here on Newgrounds), the last episode of which was released in 2005. Everything was given an intentional retro feel, a call-back to High School days when mr-bond and I began making Flash animations. Hence, the intro is updated, albeit with retro pixel art and a chiptune remix. The dialogue is intentionally awkward, for comedy, and the intro being more interesting than the events of the actual episode is a running gag with the Grick series. The art style in the episode was the way it was for a few reasons: (A) because it's kind of funny to have the exact same vector graphics as a 7 year old flash cartoon, as though nothing at all has changed, (B) to keep with the style of the old ones, for a sense of continuity, and (C) because I wanted to get the cartoon out by the end of the year, so it made things easier. So there, have a cheeseburger.
