[@ReignOfTiramiZu]

The creator is a recent alumni of my college. They animated a shot of the opening, where Puzzle looks out a window, in our 2D paperless class. I’m so glad that their work is getting the attention it deserves!

The character designs are wild. Puzzle is tall and skinny with a hard candy head covering that looks like a puzzle piece. Sling is short round and has cotton candy hair that looks like a pencil eraser. How do you come up with that?

[@jeffscrungle6179]

Their motivations and what made this so compelling for me is the solitary confiment part like yeah it makes sense that they'd want to spend the rest of their lives fending off the boredom of children since solitary confinement is the most extreme traumatic and horrible version of ''boredom'' you could possibly imagine, I love them both so much that whole finale made this for me and made it so I wanted an actual show of this but as Gus ilustrated perfectly if this is a standalone piece it makes Puzzles's point all the more poignant like a kind of reverse Bojack Horseman.

BUT PLEASE GOD LET ME HAVE MORE PUZZLE SHE'S SO FUCKING COOL AND WANT HER AND SLING TO BE A CANON COUPLE THE WAY SHE BLUSHED AT HER AT THE END WAS SO CUTE PLEASE GOD PLEASE GOD PLEAAAAAAAAAAAASE

[@wisterite3080]

Niko is a good friend of mine and this video made me SOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!! The amount of work you think went into this, probably involved 5x more. I have never seen someone so well established with their relationship with art who just wants to impact and help people. Our friends watched her push, refine, and quite literally work nonstop. To say we are proud would be an understatement!!! Thank you for bringing the attention she definitely deserves!!!!!!!!

Oh hey! Zuwie wasn’t permanently scared off of the channel due to SpongeBob-related trauma. Love the vibe they bring.

[@ringer1324]

Thanks for covering this! I love everything about this short film not enough people are talking about it.

[@sugoiuseismoeabuse4058]

Oh its the va for the mind control mob kid in Kingmaker Histories.
Thanks for introducing me another zany show.

[@mushcap1088]

It's cool to see someone talking about this. It really left an impression on me.

[@basillemmie4595]

Whoa, I just watched it now! This is so cool! The amount of work that goes into mixed media is incredible, and the fact this was mainly one person who made it! I'm so excited for the future of indie animation.

[@kiwitchi5053]

[@jingojango9220]

Thanks for talking about this, I really enjoyed watching it and I never would’ve know about it otherwise

[@miadriskell1441]

If you’re looking for more thesis films to discuss (or even just to watch for fun) I’d highly recommend “SINKING” by maya kanoe. It came out last year and it’s one of my favorite thesis films on UA-cam.

[@Troutington2]

I'll watch the movie right after this, so to give my 2 cents now: Is boredom really evil? Who made time free of pressure and danger "evil"?
