Is super Monkey Ball ok? It's distributed by sega and included in the sega roster in games so I'd assume but i'm not sure.

So the idea is:

Opening scene shows AiAi all happy and about to tackle a difficult stage

He rolls forward then falls through a hole in the stage

He falls out in the typical game fashion where he falls and the camera is above him watching as he falls.

Then it cuts to AiAi falling at a horizontal angle, then after a few seconds (Bam!) he hits the ground and dies surrounded by a ton of other dead monkeys and cracked monkey balls.

The screen then fades to grey scale and a narrator's voice says:

"Every year 10,000 monkeys in balls die. But there's a way you can help. Just..."
(Then the voice changes from a sad one to a comical one )
"...git gud scrub"

Then cut to black.

Thoughts? I don't know if this idea is funny or not or if it's potentially too dark so any opinions or criticism would be awesome

It has potential, but we already have 2 Monkey Ball shorts. 3 would be a bit much for a single volume.

Ah ok didn't realise. How about an alex kidd one?

Alex Kidd comes up against a boss from a different game (It's not too relevant to the short so haven't decided who yet).

There's really epic music playing as they stare each other down.

Alex: Its time to end this once and for all.

Boss: Yeah, time to die.

Then they rush at each other then Alex Kidd goes to play rock paper scissors. The boss looks confused and plays along, drawing a rock. Alex draws paper. Alex starts celebrating...then the boss just straight up murders him.

Thoughts?

I pitched it a while back so if it seems familiar that's probably why

The joke feels a little too weak to me.

I think the joke would work a lot better if you played it totally straight through the whole thing. Winking at the audience is totally unnecessary.

Okay, so I had an idea for a Golden Axe short, and I want to know what everyone thinks.

You know how in between levels there are the blue clothed little elf guys with the burlap sacks who will show up and zip across the screen really fast, and you have maybe about 30 seconds to kick them for health and other goodies?

What if instead it had the three characters you're allowed to choose just kicking one or two of the elf guys on the ground like they're being jumped by a gang? Meanwhile, it still has that cheery music going in the background like nothing is wrong and so people will know the context of whats going on.

-----------

*Wide camera shot of three heroes, kicking one or two small elves*

One of the main characters: "Give to us all thousts shit!"

*camera cuts to elf guys laying on the ground, while being kicked*

Elf: "I'll give you anything you want just please stop hurting me!"

*static cut*

This idea is pretty much based off TheWax's concept (that being Ulala's hair is actually cotton candy), but remastered. So here it goes.

The camera zooms in to show a cotton candy stand in an amusement park (probably Carnival Night from Sonic 3) with hundreds of people lining up.
After that, Sonic walks up to Ulala (with Knuckles behind him) and orders some fairy floss.

SONIC: I'd like two sticks of cotton candy please, one for me, and one for me again! I mean, what can I say, the sugar makes me go super, out of my mind!

ULALA: (in a disgruntled voice) Uhgh, alright. That'll be four dollars.

Sonic hands over the money and then shows Ulala ripping her hair off from her head and stabbing them into two sticks. Sonic walks off with his sticks, Knuclkes walks up to th counter, Ulala puts up a sign saying: "Sorry, cotton candy sold out. Please wait," and then walks off to a hair-growing shop run by Eggman.

Knuckles is then sad over the fact that there is no fairy floss, but then notices Amy running up to Sonic in the distance.

AMY: Oh Sonic, Sonic! I've missed you! (jumps onto Sonic and wrestles him cutely)

Sonic then snaps and throws Amy off.

SONIC: Will you knock it off Amy?! Jesus, why can't I have a normal, peaceful day without the likes of you!

Sonic is then interrupted by a screaming crowd in the distance, which is getting closer and closer until he realises that the crowd is running to them. The scene then shows the front view of the crowd with Knuckles in front of all of them.

KNUCKLES: Cotton candy!!!

The crowd then jumps onto Amy, and rips off her hair (since as shown before, the pink hair is cotton candy), while Sonic is thrown away from the "fight" scene. After a bit, the crowd runs away, with sticks of cotton candy, and smoke covers up her body until it disappears, leaving a hairless Amy on the ground. Sonic then sees this, gets a shock, and faints to the ground.

END

Remember to give criticism if necessary. Thanks.

2: Vanquish

Hopefully these are good?

How about a short where the veteran animators are hazing us new guys? Or are you keeping the ideas strictly related to Sega games?

That would not fit as a SEGA Short since it's about us, not a SEGA franchise, but dramatizing some of the more infamous incidents in the old Sonic Shorts Ideas Thread could make for a fun entry in Sonic Shits 3D & Knuckles.

Assuming that ever comes out.

Hello everyone, here's my idea for a Valkyria Chronicles Short.
I have already do a script and a basic story board: I now want to know what work and what doesn't.

The point is to make fun of this kind of method, when you push Alicia alone on the front with maximum order sent.
-> A good exemple

Here is my story-board

Script:
Spoiler: click to toggle


I think that's all. Don't hesitate to ask if you don't understand something.
[1] Both give a extra command Point, it's very useful when you use this technique
[2] Vyse from Skies Of Arcadia is a playable character in the game
[3] It's true. Every mains characters just go back to the camp instead of die

Is anyone still on this website? I've got another idea for a short with a morbid punch line, much like my Bonanza Bros short.

Revenge of Shinobi

-----

*Joe Musashi approaches the Spider-Man boss*

Joe: So, one of these Zeed guys is a bit of a fan boy, eh?

*the Spider-man guy looks at him as he said that*

Joe: Lets see what you're made of

*Joe leaps forward and slashes the Spider-Man guy*

*Spider-man collapses to the ground*

Joe: How disappointing, I expected more from one of Zeed's higher ups.

The ACTUAL Spider-Man boss: Uh, I'm over here *pan to him* that guy on the ground was a cosplaying parkour-performer.

Joe: huh...whoops
