Introduction
This is a very short (2 - 4 minutes) experiment of mine, the "why" is right in the title. I have been fascinated by the style of Don Hertzfeldt for years and this is me trying to transfer this into a game. Every frame is hand drawn by me (as you can tell by the terrible linework) to achieve the stop motion effect I was looking for.
This is very much a work in progress, the outline is done though and now I will polish it some more. Especially the sound effects are no where I want them to be.
