GSKeed's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[THE DUST PIXIES]

This felt like a unique watch, even with the well-worn "small-time band" story. The protagonist designs are simple yet memorable, along with the rest of the character designs, and the voice acting is well-done. The idea of humans being a minority in a world of aliens is interesting and possibly a good springboard for future stories if you so choose. It has a 90's feel to it, from its rock aesthetic to the MTV-like edginess in the tone. The fluid animation combined with the line boil and sketchy backgrounds is an eye-catching choice. The video game sound Easter eggs in the sound design (plus the Ed, Edd, and Eddy shoutout) are a nice touch. Things might be a bit over exaggerated here and there in character expression and tone, but any complaints I have are minor, especially in the face of how long this must have taken. The loose sketchiness of certain parts, including the sequence at the end, adds to the charm, and in a way helps prove this was clearly a passion project. You have a unique voice, and you represent what this website was originally made for. I'll keep you on my radar in the future.
