Reviving the thread because I'm in a creative yet lazy mood so I'm working with pivot again |D
Edit 5: Added the most recent preview of the fight animation.
For the sake of originality I made the sticks myself, but I used the stick that comes with Pivot as a guide so they aren't much different.
I know the animations are a little choppy... but what do you guys think?

This one is short, you're probably thinking. That's because it's not done yet - nowhere near. I'm working on this as a kind of bump-my-skills-closer-to-Inter thing. Wish me luck, and do keep reminding me not to lose interest!
"Payback" has a small amount of easing in it, though I doubt anyone will notice it. I know it's there, though, and I think I'm getting a little better at animation in general.
"Punch Throw" has more detectable easing than Payback, but I really hate how it turned out. Purple is smooth as an ocean stone, but Light Blue just seems to jerk at every frame. Dx
"SHOOOOM" .......I REFUSE TO EXPLAIN. XDDD
"Bloody Ninjas!" I love how Black turned out in this one. I admit to getting shoddy with the ninja though. I told you he'd get beat up. THIS ONE has the most easing in it by far. Ignore the punch if you like, it's the easing in Black's movements I want to hear about. Yea or Nay?

You can ignore these if you want.

Plot
There's a very sketchy plot to my animations. Basically, the stick people were created by me. They're trying to find out how to get free of the 'Arena Tasks' I set for them, which involve a set of problems to solve with their different skills. The tasks are dangerous and they just have to deal with it day by day, trying not to crack.
Characters
Blue: A wannabe ninja. I don't like ninjas, so he gets beat up a lot because I pick on him.
Light-blue: A magic user. I gave him too much power and he's not very good at controlling it yet. He has low self-esteem because of this.
Vivid-green: A modified stick guy, with cyborg-ish arms and legs. He's very heavy, because he has lots of metal on him for armour. He generally has very little trouble with the tasks, but the others will probably grow to hate him for it.
Pink: Girly and annoying, but she likes guns and heavy weaponry. I might call her "Plastic Explosive". Haha. She likes to follow Black around a lot.
Black: No powers, no special weapons - he's like the 'control' test subject in a big experiment. I make the tests easier for him so that he doesn't die any faster than he should.
Purple: Another female joins the fray. She's got a short fuse, but she's reliable and a great team player usually. She's got lots of stamina and strength.
More to come soon
If you have any suggestions for characters or whatever, feel free to contribute. I thrive on other people's input. C:
Also, if the colours are annoying people too much, please tell me. I figured it might be easier to understand if I did it that way... Also prettier. xD But seriously, if it's like, colour spam or anything, I'll take them off.
