Hey guys! We released a new short toon and you should check it out:
Re re re re re re re: Pardon Me



This toon is part of a YouTube response chain meme, Pardon Me. To get the gist of it, watch the first few videos in the chain 1, 2, 3 ... You only really need to watch the first few seconds of each one to get where it's going.

You'll notice Clarence looks a little different, this is the first step in our plan for future toons.~ We want to be able to make quickly animate short toons so we can release content more regularly. This requires a simple art/animation style, and a somewhat limited expectation for content, meaning we cant be making long, action toons every week, it just takes too long. At the same time, we also really want to do long, action toons too! more serious toons with lots of fighting and action would be not as good if we used a limited art style on it.

With both of those in mind, we're considering having two art styles and two whole separate series. One would be simple art style, simple stories and short, funny toons. We would try to release these once or twice a month (think 4pack). The second would be more detailed art style with longer, cooler stories that we would release a few times per year. These longer toons would likely be multi-episode series so we can really tell a cool story (think Kermit Kombat).

It's still early for all of this but it's what we're working on, in addition to updating the website and forums.

Don't worry, Neptune Circle isn't going anywhere!

I'm just glad you guys haven't completely given up. Just make sure the new KK completely badass, and I'll forgive your lack of animation in the past year or so.

Woo! Thats a really good idea, the 2 different art styles. Keep it simple for the cheeky funny monthly stuff, and then use a more elaborate animation style for Kermit Kombats and stuff.


I'm really glad you guys are still creating. Please don't ever stop.

I already tried to make Mazz a famous man by framing him for the columbine school shooting.
