Description
READ FIRST: THIS ANIMATION WAS MADE USING MACROMEDIA FLASHTHE MUSIC WAS DONE IN FRUITYLOOPS
THANK YOU.
Just to show you all that I AM working on Dendyn Futures.
Firstly, I'd like to make it known that Dendyn Futures runs at 30fps, unlike Dendyn Dynasties which ran at 25. However, since it's going to be a bit longer than Dynasties, most of the fbf is only going to be animated on every second frame, an anime standard. This means less frames I have to colour and therefore less time taken, and the smoothness still takes only a minimal hit. Maybe after it's on its way to completion, I will go back and fill out some of the blank frames.
The characters are actually a lot harder to draw than in Dynasties, since I'm not omitting any details this time, especially on the Mechs.
You also get to hear a bit of the Dendyn Futures theme, although I won't be allowing that for download until I've done sufficiently more on this animation.
So yeah, this part is mostly showcasing Cyrus and his quicktoe ability as well as the Vulpine Star Mech. I never really got around to animating Rygel's quicktoe on the last Dendyn animation, so Cyrus fills that up nicely here.
Not much of it is coloured yet, sorry about that. It's the most tedious job of the animation process, lol. XB
The Dendyn series and all related material is (c) Ryanide. Do not distribute or use without my permission.
The animation style is inspired from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann this time. It's really given me a great idea on how to do impact and recoil motions.

I like how the music is a more actiony version of the one from Dynasties.
How long have you been doing animations anyway?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Since the start of high school.
And yeah, the music runs at my beloved 183bpm, as opposed to Dynasties, which went at 170bpm.

Dude, you seem to breathe talent, I just now learned how to convert music files so I've got a long road ahead of me. Keep up the good work with the animations

Sweet golly gee, that's some fine quality animation there, Ryanide! I particularly enjoy the structure and texture of the buildings, and the spraying of the littl'uns with bullets.

Thank you! I plan to put more work into the background because I really need practise drawing detailed city scenes.

Wow..... I'm dying to see this finished. <3
I like how it's smoother, i'm guessing that's what switching to 30 fps does. 8D
I'm lovein the tune too.
awesome job! <3333

This actually animates slower than Dynasties, since I only animate on every second frame.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
really? *complete shock* D8 I thought I had it all figured out. dang.
still looks awesome either way. XD
oh, and do you use action script?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I use a scripted "camera" and basic script for navigation, but I can't see any use for it in my animations otherwise.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
a scripted camera? What's that might i ask?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's a little movie clip that behaves like a camera. You can tween it to make it zoom in and out or move around. It's very handy. Google "flash virtual camera"

ooooooooooohhhh.. 8D Thank you! n____n

How did you elarn to animate like that!? It must take forever... and your Music!!! OMG!!! THe ground shakes! awsumests lawlz!

Oddly enough, I just taught myself and experimented a lot.

Damn dude.... I salute you for your bravery and devotion!

And this is exactly why you are an inspiration.
Its is not just cool, but you can see the boundless energy put into it, a desire to accomplish something.

Lol is that an Lopunny I see thar in your avatar?
Best and most underrated agillipasser in the game.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah. I'm actually chain breeding for one right now. I'm going to be abusing:
Lopunny@Lagging Tail
Adamant
Trait: Klutz
EVs:252 Atk/232 or 236 Spd/Rest into HP
Retun/Thunderpunch
Switcheroo
Ice Punch
Healing Wish
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
*cackle* gotta love klutzbunny. Although I'd replace thunderpunch with thunder wave since even with a super effective hit they do very little damage. Ice punch is just there to revenge-ko Garchomp really.
I also find choice band is a better item than lagging tail. It screws over anything that doesn't just attack.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, but I'm thinking much of the time someone is going to send something in to kill it and CB might actually what is sent in.
Wow, I never knew it learned Thunderwave...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, it learns it by TM.
But anything that's not designed for a choice band/specs/scarf isn't going to enjoy being only able to use one move. It'll stop things like sword dancers and baton passers in their tracks. (choice specs is best, I think.)
Mine is this:
Lopunny@focus sash
jolly
cute charm
baton pass
heal wish
agility
ice punch.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmmm Lopunny's frail, but its not too frail... Without EVs in Def/SDef it could take an EQ from Garchomp. It might not need Focus Sash... Looks interesting though, however, whatever it passes to might get smacked by something. How would it fare in usage against say something like Jolteon or Zapdos?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Mine survives strong hits all the time, especially from special attackers.
Zapdos and Jolteon can't use heal wish, and without HP ice, they can't hurt a Garchomp.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But they could use that slot for Sub if they lack HP Ice. Garchomp will not come in on a Zapdos often from what I've seen on Shoddy.
There was someone who figured out how to chain breed for Hidden Powers on Smogon... I was like ._______.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I find that more often than not, healing wish is worth it to bring back things on low health...like Blissey for instance.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hehe I can't wai to use Loppy in battle.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I try to use mine a lot. Baton pass agility to Vaporeon - baton pass acid armor to Blissey or Weavile. nom nom.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'll be using a Lopunny for a league I'll be making next year, heh heh. If its special attack didn't suck it'd be really useful.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, it's best used as a utility Pokemon as it is now. But it's still a very good utility Pokemon.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Amazing. It's times like these that I remember why, exactly, I watch you.
Is it supposed to follow the music when the guy goes white and the baddies are all lined up side to side? You know, duh-duh-duh-duh and it zooms out accordingly. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, that part was mean to be synced. TTGL isn't the only anime that uses that rather cheap technique. It's pretty common actually. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hm, I don't watch a lot of animes so that's new info for me.
Well, here's hoping that the finished product is going to be sweet and awesome and not like the Transformers action scenes. Admittedly they were cool but you couldn't make out what was going on.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I've never really watched Transformers, but I think I know what to look out for.
Do you mean the movie or the cartoon?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The movie. I've only seen bits and pieces of the cartoon, and even then, it wasn't the "original."
I'm a bit worried for your other projects. You just keep piling them on.

Great! I love the song!
Please finish it though.
But still, it was AWESOME!!!

Great Work Ryanide cant wait to see this finish.

not just awesome, freaking OWN and WIN. O3O
this is some WIP. I love the music, and those impact moments definetly grab my attention. Cyrus's quicktoe turned out good, in my opinion. Especially climbing up his mech.
If I could give one suggestion... about the first part where you show the little transition from Dynasties' world to Future's world, I think you should put Rygel in on the Dynasty side.. even if he's at a faded opacity r something like that.. Just so that when Cyrus is shown, it doesn't feel unbalanced. And you get that vague feel of connection between the two serieses.
Then between the two segments you can make it obvious that the time jump was made... I'm thinking speedlines or something to that effect.
I could keep on watching this for a while and not be bored! It's really that fun. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
oh,
besides the speedlines on the transition, you could also do something like a number increasing, symbolizing all the years passing by, or something like that. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Yeah, I was thinking of showing fades of the original protagonists during that time. I'll do it for the final for sure.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
...wow. You've really outdone yourself. And with you, that's REALLY saying something.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
wow sucks to be an extra...hehe I love your stuff wish I could get my animation this smooth. Do you hand draw all of this? Use a tablet? Sorry to bother you
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yup, it's all hand drawn with a tablet.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
wow...I'm a starting flash animator and I tried doing stuff with my tablet I'm not very good but your stuff is great! Hope you don't mind me using your work as an inspiration (I'm anal about copying stuff so no worries about that)

dude... no u dont friken understand dude... when this is finished its going to be AMAZING!!!! man i love it especialy that u get to see alil bit more of their world and the mechs. Cant wait to see the finished product.

Well, the ass-kickery of this bit is far above normal readings. And I definately get the Gurren Lagann feel from it! Kudos to you, chum!
