A ray of hope.
I am kicking myself for having missed this on my little lurks through NG. I knew you could do much better, and Salty Swamp is proof. After watching the first episode, I got pumped, hoping to see you continue it. It's an interesting story, cute, colorful characters, and a new surprise around every corner. Rather well animated, I can't find anything to complain about, and had to smirk at the fact you're using tracks from the Banjo-Kazooie soundtrack. It fits well, but thankfully the characters don't follow behind the game.
Which brings me to how depressing it is to hear you've lost your motivation. You're a talented animator, and it would be sad to see that another skillful artist abandoned their dreams, ideals, or hobbies when they have so much potential. Good luck Shaun, and thanks for pointing this out to me; yet another rare shine of brilliance on NG.
