This is the animation I submitted to Newgrounds, hence all the Newgrounds elements. I am trying to compete in the Christmas contest there, so if you feel like rating the animation, I would like you to go to the Newgrounds page instead: [link]

Anyways, this is the "same" animation I submitted here 2 years ago; only the Directors Cut of sorts. Now I also have added a dynamic load system, which loads half of the animation from external servers. Since Flash didnt take too kindly to the entire animation, I had to chop it up (which is what went wrong last time, when I had to cut a lot of content from the animation). For some reason, it seems to work now, even though the coding itself is still rather wonky.

Differences with the previous version;
-Fully animated backgrounds
-Added a new scene, to elaborate on the characters actions
-Changed to snowflakes to something simple, so that it fits better with the rest of the animation
-Removed all animated glows and replaced them with handanimation that fits better with the rest of the animation
-Lots of other small touch-ups to make the overall experience a better one

This animation has driven me nuts the last few days. Just when I thought I had it all finished, the darn thing decided to have a bugfest again when I uploaded it (most probably damaging the ratings I got so far at Newgrounds). It is fixed right now, but if you encounter a black screen near the end of the animation, please let me know. It should be working, but that is also what I thought before I uploaded it. Flash never seems to disappoint me when it comes to surprises...

I believe the music is from Tales of Phantasia, the song is titled "Star in the Sky" as far as I can remember. So, credit for the song goes to Namco.
