Brilliant Art AND Animation
This animated flash (as opposed to the sprite and spasm fiestas) was so well done that its simple plot didn't bring it down. In fact it may have helped because the audience was treated to a visual ride. The characters have been introduced in previous animations, but you don't need to know the history to enjoy this submission. The art in each frame is captivating (that means the art is cool).
I am picky about Animation especially if the story has little or no dialog...
so this passed with a 5. Two thumbs up!
Adam Phillips is a pro beyond any shadow of a doubt, so newbies should take notes from his work (and other cool newgrounders) before submitting "my first flash".
