Excellent!
Very good modeling, expressive animation, exciting camera work and good lighting!
Funny too! :D
Sometimes the animation feels a tiny bit jerky, but overall its very well made.

[Wise Ferret]

That was simply over-cool! Yay Tux!

[days_of_ruin]

I think tux looks too mean.

[exneo002]

That was awsome!

[lyceum]

That was too cool! What program did you use to make it?

[RD1]

Very cool .... and your pic makes a great wallpaper .....

YES !!! Wallpaper !! .. I will do something in 1600x1200 :) I will send it here, when it will ready ;)

[MadsRH]

Great work!!! It looks very professional - thanks

[CaptainCabinet]

That is a brilliant animation.
Nice work! :D

[AJB2K3]

ROFL thats cool, the music doesn't quite match the animation in places (doen't matter as your not a full company) love the BSOD on the robot.
Love to see more based on this.
Please submit it to the compatations, could end up as the next "Voices of a distant star" type dvd.

[TorqueyPete]

Great animation!
But what's happening at the end? is ******* getting an error? that would be about right then! :D

[ahaslam]

Rotfl :) :p
PS. Thank you, I needed that ;)

[days_of_ruin]

Didn't finish downloading it yet, whats the resolution?How long is it?

[finferflu]

That was fantastic :D

[Banished]

That made me laugh so hard, loved the ending...and the artwork was incredible. I hope you are making a series of these.

[namegame]

Great animation!

Yeah...the "blue screen of death." I used to get it on my laptop quite a bit...until linux happened...lol

[steveneddy]

cool

[AJB2K3]

Yeah...the "blue screen of death." I used to get it on my laptop quite a bit...until linux happened...lol
ROFL Are you getting like me and missing the old BSOD?

[Tux Aubrey]

I hope you are making a series of these.

+1. Great work.

Maybe your tux could use some ninja stars shaped like Ubuntu logos?

[nokout]

+1 for wallpaper.

Very Nice.

[days_of_ruin]

only 16%.
Wish I had fast internet :lolflag:

[argraff]

That's the funniest thing I've seen all day - thank you!!! :D

Now I can go to bed and feel safe knowing that Windows will always crash before it kills me in my dreams...

[lyceum]

[days_of_ruin]

[akurashy]

awesome man! totally love it ^_^

[smartboyathome]

Here is a 1680x1050 of that wallpaper. I like it a lot and am using it! :D

[blakzer0]

Awesome video! The animation was great. The scene design was superb. The amount of detail in the scenery real accented the plot. Ending was great :)

[Cresho]

MAN! AWSOME! I'm not going to say more because of spoilers! I bookmarked the site and keeping an eye on it.


Excellent work.

[Sockerdrickan]

haahahahahahaha

[Cenda]

I made some little changes .. Now it is final (I hope :D )

[jamesmk2003]

It should be included in a next distribution of ubuntu but I would zoom on that error screen at the end.

[meborc]

this is great with my darker theme

and i don't think it is wise to zoom to the error screen... right now it is better... the tux is centered and the error is just something normal - not exceptional... something that is so everyday stuff that we do not need to zoom into it :)

[Kevbert]

Excellent video, just about sums up the fight. Thanks.

[tdrusk]

That was awesome.

What is Maya how does it run in Ubuntu?

[hessiess]

That was awesome.

What is Maya how does it run in Ubuntu?

Maya is a 3D program, dont jnow how it works in ubuntu, but Blender can easely do most of what maya can, it even has a bult in compositor, as far as i know Blender is the only program that fetures one;)

this animation should be easily posable in Blender;)

not a bad short

[amcl]

Nice work!

[Nineaxis]

Amazing, awesome ending.

[SOULRiDER]

YES !!! Wallpaper !! .. I will do something in 1600x1200 :) I will send it here, when it will ready ;)

I just downloaded the 1280x1024 wallpaper and im setting it right now :)

The animation is incredible, I give it a 9.9999/10, if theres only one thing I would change it would be that the penguin looks a bit stiff when being hit, but thats it.

AWESOME WORK! :guitar:

[Taino]

just finished my last project in which I did battle Linux vs Windows :)

Nice vid, cool wallpapers too! :)

Your video clip reminded me of some other cool CGI animated battles, here are 2 vids for inspirational purposes.

Video-1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roenaYV7-Ww) Video-2 (http://youtube.com/watch?v=3ylLiAAp-Dk)

Who knows maybe there will be a tux vrs windows (part 2) or a trilogy. :)

[natehall]

Great ending!

[Pieboy337]

I'm not going to lie, that completely just made my day. Great job.

[buried]

Nice nice anim!! nice textures

[gameryoshi600]

cool dude im downloading the movie.

[Roque2]

That is the funniest thing I have seen in along time. Excellent work!!:lolflag::guitar::KS:popcorn:

[boyofford]

Brilliant!:popcorn:

[yousufinternet]

haaaaa hahahahahahahaha
realy realy nice
ahahahaha
windows don't work even on robots

[1x2]

BrAvO !:lolflag:

[crazyfuturamanoob]

awesome! i love it!
9.5/10

[Limpan]

Very neatly done!

[elektriks]

really nice and funny video :D

[Nevon]

This is the kind of talent that could really benefit the Linux gaming development. One of the biggest flaws with Linux games is that the graphics aren't that great. Even if CGI wouldn't help with the actual game graphics, at least the overall impression of the game would be better if you had a kickass intro movie like this.

[Catalyst2Death]

Are you making more?! I really hope so, I found the video very entertaining, and I watch it often. I really hope there is more in the series

[Tigershell]

Haha mate that's great.
Love how it ends :)

[moredhel]

awesome :)

[gilweber]

Enjoyed your work. Lots of nice attention to detail. Really shows your talent. Thanks. :lolflag:

[Can+~]

You could join the guys at blender.

F***** awesome.

Nice isn't it? :D

:lolflag:

[Woormy]

I think the person who made this posted a link here and asked for comments. Well done, isn't it?

[original_jamingrit]

awesome, and cool, with a hilarious ending.

Poor tux put himself through a lot.

[crazyness003]

What equals Defeat?




BSOD

[Lord Xeb]

XD That video was freaking awesome!!!!!

[smartboyathome]

I remember seeing that video when the author first released it here, it was really good. Looks almost professional (just a few touchups are needed). :D

[ubuntu27]

Glad you guys liked it :) hehe. NOW GIVE STARS!! :P

[Pinoy915]

What was used to create that video?

Thank you meborc for the link :)
Yes, thanks. Threads merged.

[koji042]

That was an awesome animation! Poor Tux though, he got beaten pretty badly before the BSOD came in. xD

[Cpuboye11]

Wow Very Nice!! Keep up the good work! A+++++++

Awesome vid! Loved the ending, too.

[sanderella]

Very good, excellent animation, but....

Tux looks evil, can't you make him look a bit good?

Windows wins too much before the end, you need to make Tux win some bouts.

Thanks for the entertainment.

[ROUBOS]

Awesome !!! Go tux !!!

[Swagman]

/me shrieks

ZOMBIE THREAD

[BuffaloX]

Wow glad somebody bumped this,
That was awesome.

[mbtllc]

I loved it

[dragos240]

I love the ending. Windows BSoDs. Tux wins!

[R2D2!]

Just one questıon: Where can I download the vıdeo ın OGG?

—Ilhuıtemoc δ

[Cenda]

You can choice between: mov, wmv and xvid avi ;) .. you can convert it, if you want ;)

[Cenda]

Hi all, I finished next one .. and I think that it is my last with linux theme :) ... Many people thinks that I am Linux fanatic when I made Killer Tux.. but I like windows too .. animation is only for fun .. Windows is good and linux too, peace

[lindsay7]

That was funny,I don't care what anyone says.

Stopped by the bsod!! haha

[elianthony]

Both videos are pretty awesome, fantastic job!

[ThisEndlessFall]

Lol! Really amazing. What software did you use to render that?

[Cenda]

it was rendered in softimage

[ztmike]

Dude..you need to make more awesome wallpaper.

Do you have a website? I'd like to check out the wallpaper collection you made, and if possible do you have any in 1920x1200 resolution? Its so damn hard to find this resolution that isn't based on a nature background.

The video was AWESOME. 10 stars man.

[ztmike]

Saw this link in your OP (I overlooked it)

http://www.cenda.cz/downSources/KillerTux.html#

Is that your website? I can't seem to get to the wallpaper section?

[Cenda]

Thanks :) .. Yes it is my website. There is Wallpapper button with many resolution but not in 1920x1200. Next wallpappers, I will do in this resolution too ;)

[ktechkio]

Looks Awesome :popcorn::popcorn::popcorn:
(Not the popcorn of course the animation and wallpaper)

[ztmike]

I got the tux wallpaper to be 1920x1200 for those that want it, I uploaded it to Imageshack

http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/5284/killertux1920x1200.jpg

[lukjad]

Ohhh! Tux is scary now! :twisted:

[Deamos]

I love it! Keep up the awesome work!!

[SuperCadence]

That was so freaking cute!
I am so using that last wallpaper for my desktop on my windows computer! That just cracks me up.

[Krews]

Tux + ninja, couldn't get any better :D

[Flimm]

I love it, but it really needs sound effects. I need to hear the robot moving, the penguin squeaking and grunting, and the destruction happening. The second video had sound effects, that one really did feel professional.

[Flimm]

Just one questıon: Where can I download the vıdeo ın OGG?
