Oh I dunno if it's just my and my computer being strange, but if it doesn't seem to load anything at all, just refresh the page. It's being doing that to me with flashes on dA...

Um... yeah.
The .fla file is about 5megs (apparently. This file is actually only 727kbs but still) so you might wanna give it a minute to load cause I have no idea how to do a preloader. And if I do more to this I'll end up being all bitter and hate-filled. So yeah.

This was started in... actually I don't know when it was started. I just know I left it back in march when the actual running animation was done. And before that, there was the more sketchy version of the animation...
Anyway so I decided, for some reason, to finally go back to it. So that's basically what I did this week.

And yes, Avver's name has two "v"s now. I hadn't realized "Aver" was a real word when I named him that. (ironically it means something along the lines of brave, which he really isn't.) It's supposed to be pronounced Ahv-ver. Or something along those lines. I hadn't started spelling his name "Avver" in the actual story because it's just easier if I leave it alone till its all done. That and I keep forgetting.

Anyway onto the animation itself. It's about 15 seconds, I guess. (Counting menus and such it's 19)
Referenced, obviously, from the Higurashi Kai Opening . I'd like to think that when I traced the video of the general outline it wasn't so bad because it was so goddamn pixelly, but... Eh. I dunno. I still don't think it's that bad, but it does mean this thing is nothing to be proud of.
Basically you don't all need to go "OMGz YOU TRACED IT!1!" because I feel bad enough already, thanks :/
Though it IS all frame-by-frame, for about 90 frames, so the effort is there, at least. And of course the beginning and end "menu" pictures were done from scratch but its not like they matter.
And I guess something this small doesn't really need "menus" and such but... I felt like it. They make it all spiffy. Though there's no need for it to be spiffy...

I'M GONNA STOP BEATING MYSELF UP ABOUT THIS NOW AND JUST LET YOU WATCH IT AND STUFF.
