Rest in peace, Sherbert. You and your blue mouse will be missed.

No idea what that meant, but it was funny; I'm satisfied.

Still laughing my ass off about the song usage. It's still one of my favorite songs, but feels almost ironic now. I feel like I'm much more likely to see the song used in a parody of the times, but this, this is genuine.

As for the animation, it's clunky and awkward, but it has a special charm to it, one that I really admire. I enjoyed this.

Short but sweet. Cool story, just wish there was an endscreen or more content.

Interesting. Well animated, good texture.

So great to see Newgrounds funding something like this. That being said, I have no clue clue what any of it means, but it's beautiful all the same.

Edit: I did not expect that ending.

I love all the different styles of animation! You really captured the fun, goofy spirit of the original game(s).

thank you so much!!

Damn, this was a good short film (Yes, I consider it to be one). Everything from the story, to the animation, to the voice acting was perfect, but what really stood out to me was the characters. In a sea of what is usually disgusting or outright evil characters (both in real life and in MeatCanyon's videos), Melvin is both sweet and incredibly human. Angela (who is ironically nothing like an angel) initially looks to be nice, but is instead a jerk to Melvin, befriending the parasitic worm before even asking Melvin if he's okay. On a similar note, the worm was a selfish, manipulative scumbag. There's no defending a character as deplorable as that filthy worm. He didn't need Melvin to survive, he just favored his music, and was willing to entice a doctor to his suicide to maintain his nasty satisfaction. This all illustrates the age old idea that appearances can be deceiving and that although humanity can be hard to find, it can always resurface in the unlikeliest of places. We need more people like Melvin.

Thank you.

How is this simple animation better than most the half-baked, CGI-infused garbage that comes out of Hollywood nowadays?

This is so emotional and full of heart.
