Conversations like this are one of the things I cherish from growing up.

[@thesandyartist9318]

godamn this is way too good to not blow up, the time and effort put into each frame is stupendous, I feel criminal seeing the free!!

[@mimmusup154]

Me: I feel you, sis.
Also: meanwhile feeling no guilt watching Marvel movies illegally.

[@thesandyartist9318]

@Mimmu Sup yea lmao, I don't mind if it's from billion dollar companies, they don't really Need my money. But high quality student projects like this are too cool.

The backgrounds and animation are so pretty it's insane, and I love the dynamic between the group. Amazing job

Trees keep eachother company and talk to eachother, they feed their young through mycelium networks and help others in need and tell them if danger is near.

Charming! Reminds me of The Horizon by Jeong Ji-Hoon for some reason

[@Chillerll]

In my next life I want to be a sentient being (human or alien doesn't matter) that works extremely hard and has a big family but the twist is my hard work is barely rewarded by the unforgivingly oppressive society I live in and my family has no respect for me. I think I should have just enough karma for a life like this.

In my next life
I wanna be a dog
Because it's worth the risk
To give unconditional love

[@HanGhost99]

If were to choose what I'll come back as it'll be someone simple, someone who doesn't experience too many and harsh pains but enough to know what being happy is, maybe a goofball of a person
