    Sort of reminds me of EVE the robot looking for life on earth in the Pixar movie WALL-E. cool.
  • @Nailnuke
    I don't know what to think. It's reminiscent of other robot shorts with failing batteries. It's nicely done and I think you're alluding to a robot who's achieved feelings, but it's a well trodden path.
  • @NC-oy8hq
    So many years after the big robots protected life from the small robots and now the small robots know life’s protectors are gone ? Kind of confusing story. And I agree with some of the others saying the soundtrack was lacking
  • @videolabguy
    Nice demo reel. Beautiful rendering as usual. Absolute inability to tell a solid story. But, it has all the clichés. Dusty city ruins. Mysterious end of humanity - as usual. Some life at the end. Who? Why? When? Where? What for? WTF? So much potential. So little realization.
  • @teleroel
    Tough robot, surviving that sand storm with all it's moving parts.

    Outside my apartment building hangs a tattered flag that is at least 15 years old. This episode reminds me of that flag.
  • Lots of hours went into this well trodden path of a world after humans, but i liked it, spes when he fell into the underground.
  • @markbeames7852
    What inspired this robot, how, why and to what end for what purposes?
  • @richardwernst
    Again, no idea what yet another DUST movie is about/the point, etc. Are there any that actually tell a whole story with an ending?
  • @bikebudha01
    Once I saw the leaf on the big robot, I was expecting the small 'enemy of the big" robot to call the other robots and start killing everything...
  • Well we know what the spark is don't we!😱 Normally I don't like these ones with no dialogue but this looks absolutely amazing!😍
  • @fjdarling
    Great special effects. Still, a machine does not need an external reminder of it's battery condition. That effect would be for the benefit of some external entity.
  • @acidize55
    I'm confused. This was uploaded 47 minutes ago, and yet I've seen this exact animation before. Is this a reupload, or an upload from another animation channel?
  • @ignis-lita
    Чернопесковое каменистое плато как 2я часть пустыни интересно!
  • @druceeeee
    i want this to be an mmorpg...just a butt-load of different kinds of robots wandering about a post-apocalyptic wasteland!
