Smash Bros. World Episode 6 - The Last Stroke

600 hundred videos. If we were two digits off you would probably be thinking Resident Evil 6, the number of your Facebook posts per day or the smell of a bad day in the morning. Or Smash Bros. World's sixth episode, which hasn't been truly revealed... until now.

The fifth episode was uploaded back in November 2008. Because that was the most memorable episode I had animated so far during the short time I "was an animator". There were new (or ripped off) styles to display how MS Paint could make you look low-mid tier instead of bottom tier.

Before that came Super Smash Bros. Brawl in June. At that time I was very hyped about it and it killed my productivity by 95 %. Just like any cool game after that. (Some) People have been asking for the sixth episode in the comments of the fifth episode('s first part) and you'd think with the new illustration techniques and production tools I've gained over the years like Sony Vegas I'd get working on it, right?
Well, I haven't and it's been about three years now and there's still no true Episode 6. Guess you people deserve some redemption for all that wait, huh?

So here it is, Smash Bros. World's Episode 6 -or what became of it with the lack of motivation-.

Now, to make things clear this was already in production within a month after Ep. 5's release. With that said, I think it's universal use of common sense to think the quality is pretty mediocre, right? Well damn, it is. Again, Movie Maker, MS Paint and Jasc Animation Shop 3 was all I had then and even I have come to realise how Movie Maker can shove the frame rate down the butt -after discovering Sony Vegas anyway- so the scenes are what they are. I worked on these on a very unregular basis too so there was no way this was going to be any hype I originally imagined it to be.

A few edits were made with SV in an attempt to not kill the pacing. Don't worry, 'twas all stupid stalling - The time and effort went for a good cause. I even went through the trouble of looking up most of the authors on the sprites although at this point no-one would probably care. I do believe that credit should be given where it's due still, considering this episode would only exist in my mind if it wasn't for those people.

I guess this is my final stroke on the sprite animation with content I do not exactly own. I'm trying to learn drawing so maybe some day down the line you'll see me animating again, only with characters, story and environment Yours Truly has spent 8 years (barely) developing.

There will be a rundown on the whole plot of this soon, so here's what you should do: Follow my Twitter, Tumblr and / or deviantArt. I post rather frequently (though not as frequently as you might think) in the former two so not only you could keep easier contact with me, you'd probably get some laughs of that stuff too and keep up with my upcoming YouTube videos for example. Yes, even with SOPA and PIPA on the horizon I do have videos planned for ya. Plenty of them.

Anyway, my name's all the same in all of those places so I shouldn't be too hard to find - I think a simple Google search will do. Except I'm linking you straight to my pages instead so you'll spare your keyboard by approximately 34 presses. I also have the tools to stream games too now so you'd get instant notifications on when the coolness is rolling live instead of waiting five minutes to note you guys about it.

Thank You all who were with me during the time this series was something more than another Versus XIII. Maybe fans -and I- can be at ease now.
Hopefully you can be as well.

The Credits
The part Sony Vegas took care of, along with the fullscreen ratio.
Creation Date: 20th of January 2012.

P.S. The original creation dates for the scenes might be a bit off, but they were the best trait for'em I had. It still gets the point across though.

If SOPA and PIPA will get their shit through, then may this be our departing.
One more time, thank you.

I remembered when I enjoyed the series. I subscribed to you just because of the series. =P

I'm glad you worked very hard on this episode even though it is unfinished.

@randomyoshi Yeah. It was good times, glad you decided to stick around despite my change of heart with this. :P
