YES! It's here now!
I loved it from the beginning to the end. Great characters, amazing animation, effective storytelling... It's very close to perfection and it must be a huge inspiration for animators and writers.
Reviews for "The Reward: Tales of Alethrion - "The First Hero""
The man that poor man he transformed into he was facing... a monster but when he discovered that
it was one fo those things it was to late
Phenomenal. I hope that lady comes into play later, though.
Beautiful, amazing and spectacular. The animation, the storytelling the choreography, the timing of the animation, the background art... oh that background art. Unbelievable and amazing quality of a product :) I really hope you guys manage to reach your kick starter goal :D
P.S. I'm 90% sure that you guys used tvpaint for the animation. Am I right or was it Toon Boom?
I remember that I watched the first episode "Reward" some long time ago (maybe on Youtube or somewhere else) and then I thought how masterful yet simple was your visual storytelling.
Now I've discovered that there is a whole series in the making and this episode (more like prequel) is way better both visually and story wise (at least in my opinion). It is beautifully executed and I loved it more than "Reward" on so many levels.
The only thing the story does not conclude is what happened to the girl? I thought she'd appear at the end, at least as some kind of a passing notion. But she was sort of forgotten. Anyway, I loved this episode and I am very happy to have found you again on NG!
EDIT: Alright, I checked the next episodes and it seems like you have a different story about the girl's adventure! That's awesome, now my question is answered.
