Wait but what's your method for doing the enhanced shimmering effect?

Emrox responds:

draw a few dots or whatever random pattern, cut off the sides to make it rectangular, then convert to bitmap, then break apart, then eyedropper tool the broken apart bitmap to get a repeating bitmap fill that you can apply to stuff

THEN add an outline to your drawing with the ink bottle tool (convert lines to fills before this step, if the drawing involves lines already) and color the new outline to be the repeating bitmap fill. Then you should be able to see that making adjustments with the gradient transform tool starts to give the shimmering effect. To animate it in the timeline, you make two keyframes with the gradient transform set to different positions and then shape tween them

(as I said in the video, it's a fairly involved process! Getting shape tweens involved might even be impractical for a lot of uses, but it's definitely useful in some very specific cases)

also: the effect only really works with 1-2 pixel weight lines, extend it too far and then the trick becomes a little too obvious and the illusion breaks

This is Miyazaki-esque. I'm guessing Ghibli is an inspiration of yours. I'm very impressed

If they were heading north, then the map at the one-minute mark shows them turning west while she's saying they should head east (unless this fantasy world has different cardinal directions or something)

Why is this so good? It's beyond mesmerizing. So relaxing, so calming. It's like you've created a true utopia where people and non-people can just exist.

Even though you showed us how you animated this, it still feels beyond my comprehension

Hey, I gave this my best-of-the-month vote! I'm really impressed and I'd love to see more from you. The art style is great and I like how it's done. If you're on any other websites, you can link to your other pages here on your Newgrounds page.

Omg! Thank you! I really appreciate it! I am very new to this platform but ill make sure to add some links! Have a wonderful day 💕

I feel like this didn't really go anywhere and didn't need to be three and a half minutes

Is that supposed to be James Cameron at the end with three nipples?

What's the audio from?

Nyaarg.
