Brackenwood

Brackenwood is six short (and award winning) flash animations by Adam Phillips that develop story lines around creatures that live in a fictional forest planet called Brackenwood (previously and previously). There are more recent episodes, and a game based on the world has been made.

The creatures inhabiting the world resemble those from Irish mythology and other wholly imaginary origins.

Brackenwood has its own language, and contributions to the haunting music include Nathan McCree, who has worked professionally on a number of multimedia projects for computer games and television.

A full list of current episodes:

Episode 1: Bitey of Brackenwood
Episode 2: Prowlies at the River
Episode 3: LittleFoot
Episode 4: The Yu-Yu
Episode 5: Waterlollies
Episode 6: The Last of the Dashkin

Bizarre synchronicity! I saw a couple of these years ago back when they first came out and for some reason I was thinking about them yesterday, for the first time in forever. Must have been because I'm reading Bone and the rat creatures remind me of Bitey a bit. The last one I saw was #4. Thanks for posting this.

My son showed me first few around 5 years ago. Beautifully done. Bitey also reminds me of the rat creatures in Bone, mixed with HSR's StrongBad character. Thanks for reminding me of them.
