  • The pixel art animation short film "Genie" tells, in a funny way, the story of a middle-aged man overwhelmed by work and a genie who takes wishes very precisely.
    The economy isn't doing well, so it's not a big surprise for him when his boss fires him. Despondently he takes his suitcase and starts his journey home through the rainy city. But then he sees a ray of hope, a magic lamp. Hopeful he starts to rub the lamp, but he couldn't foresee what's inside the lamp. But once the genie is out of his bottle, he enjoys his inaccurate wishes by fulfilling them for his amusement.
    There are a few easter eggs hidden in the Animation, so watch closely (or just scroll down to the comments because someone will probably have written a comment about them).
    What would be your first wish?
    I had 100kg of gold
    I would be the smartest person
    it was world peace
    I would live a healthy life
    global warming would stop
    1. The genie will create 100kg of gold for you but it's vaporous, and you will suffocate to death.
    2. The genie will kill everybody on the planet except you, so you are the only person alive and thereby the smartest person.
    3. The genie will annihilate humanity so no one will be alive to kill each other.
    4. You are lucky the genie has no idea how he can exploit your wish to his amusement.
    5. The genie will make the atmosphere disappear so the earth can cool down and obliterate humanity as a nice side-effect.
    What would be your second wish?
    I would be famous
    I would have lovely children
    I would be married to my dream spouse
    I would be super strong
    I would have a big cookie
    1. The genie will show everyone your most embarrassing moments so everyone will laugh at you.
    2. You are lucky the genie has no idea how he can exploit your wish to his amusement.
    3. The genie will make you asleep for the rest of your life, but you will dream of your dream spouse.
    4. The genie will make you so strong that whatever you touch will be crushed immediately, so you can't hug your loved ones anymore.
    5. The genie will create a cookie so big that it will tip over and squash you.
    What would be your third wish?
    to travel the world
    I would get a college degree
    I will retire on a beautiful island
    I would be a genie
    I could do what I want to do
    1. The genie will send you on a breathtaking journey through the universe starting with a tour to the sun(without suncream).
    2. The genie will give you a college degree, but you will have to go through enormously stressful years and take a student loan which you only can pay of in decades by working in a job that you don't like.
    3. The genie will let you retire on a beautiful island, but the island has no internet, electricity, clean water or anything else you enjoy every day.
    4. The genie turns into a human, and he will trap you inside his magic lamp until another person is stupid enough to wish this wish.
    5. The genie does nothing because you already had always the chance to do what you wanted to do.
