Like Icarus, I flew too close to the sun with this effort. I originally wanted to do character animations, but it was clear I didn't have time to do what I wanted. So I changed things up and went with an animated background and a still image in the foreground.

I had to reach into my limited bag of tricks for that, too. For example, the text is from repurposed sega genesis code I had been working on in C. I used it for the sinewave text effect by creating a new image (the text) and a new program, turned that into a gif, and sort of merged it with the image.

Damn, dude, just started my voting and I'm hit with this!

Dig the more realistic look of Alice mixed with the more cartoon-like goggle-wearing rabbit thing ha. Sort of a Who Framed Roger Rabbit feel.

Cool to hear some code went into as well!

everything here fits together so well in this composition
came back here multiple times to get inspired by this

very much love the mirrored & interlocked sine waves with their gradient animations, which seem phase offset in a way?
can i ask how you approached the background / what tools were in play for this?

The background was made by using Earthbound generator tools, converting to a gif, finding a looping point that matched the text animation, and changing the colours.

They're are a lot of longer explanations on how they work
