Mario tragedy

Sunday, February 29, 2004

Just had to post today... because of the once- every- four- year- happening of this day ^_^
Anyway today I had a great experience thanks to Water Cooler Games. They put up a link to an 'animation depicting the tragic story of Mario and his ultimate downfall'
this animation is so nicely done... this person created a dramatic story out of simple pixels. I got all emotional when watching these animations. Just a perfect balance between the right pixels, music, close-ups, words, light etc. And all that out of in-game pixels (and then some). Wooo. If you ever wondered what would happen if Mario wouldn't have a mushroom left and no game over... watch this! What if Koopa got more organized? want dramatics? watch this... Ow all of you should just watch this!
Here are the links to the movies (make sure your sound is on):

Part one
Part two
Part three

Tell me what you think about these animations!
