Great job with your visual storytelling! Your boards are effective at explaining your story clearly and I liked that your narration had emotion behind it rather than speaking in a monotone voice. I enjoyed seeing the character development of the robot and his alien friend but I was a little confused on why the robot went to coral crescent with his sphere and why he valued his invention? Why would the creatures of coral crescent take interests in his sphere that doesn't work. Also, why did the robot want to retrieve his sphere after it was stolen despite the fact that it didn't operate correctly? Overall, good job at your visual storytelling and your narration!

Hi, I really liked the story and the narrative. Cypher is portrayed as an unfortunate character, dealing with lots of judgement from others. I think what will make the story better is if you elaborate on what exactly was the turning point for Cypher. He always was hard working, so it'd be really cool and important to know where his inspiration and motivation to go on came from.

Poor Cypher, I hope he finds a meaningful life during his journey.

The character designs and world building are very creative! Personally, I think the manta ray is very cool. I also think you designed a unique main character. It's interesting that Cypher himself doesn't necessarily change, but is more the kind of character who changes his environment. I like his interactions with the fur balls. Overall, well done!

Your artwork is so cool, the lining and the shading technique of yours have such an impeccable balance with each other. I can relate to Cypher, I used to feel unwelcome at my elementary schools whenever I can’t do anything right and for not being like other kids because of my autism, I felt like I didn’t belong anywhere too, but when I started middle school my life changed for the better and knew what I wanted to do with my life. Also, I love robots, and I think your design for your robot character is one of the most unique designs I’ve ever seen.

Thank you and same here I was bullied a lot until I moved schools and my brother has autism and he has a hard time understanding facial expression and expressing his own sometimes and he is a huge part of my life. Because of him I wanted a character who could relate with people who are autistic cause, I feel like we don't have a lot of characters like that.

Aww, you’re lucky you have a brother who has a great impact on your life. When I was a kid I wanted a little brother who would have a special influence in my life, but I never did get a little brother no matter how many times I used to beg my parents to give me one. At least I’ll always have my twin sister.
