'Mickey 17' Pixel Tribute

'Mickey 17' Pixel Tribute Animation. It was use as promotional material for a local horror movie cycle (that's why there's a message at the end).
I tried to recreate the story of the movie as synthetically as possible through a 1 minute animation. It's all there: the expendables cycle seen through a dark humor lens, and the natural order from the alien planet breaking Mickey - and humanity - free from it.
I based Mickey's entrance into the machine in Chaplin's famous scene in 'Modern Times' when he gets swallowed by a factory.
I used FL Studio in order to make some of the sounds, others I downloaded from YT, included the song, which is 'Powerhouse - Raymond Scott 8Bit Jazz Version' by '8 bit Jazz': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1lDzxXiC6Y
