Released this little gem back in the year 2000. Because of delays and procrastination this project took 5 years to make.

Of course, my RPG Maker 2 game has the current record for the project that has been in production for the longest length of time.
Basically, I started working on the game as soon as I bought RM2.

Originally this animation was cut into 2 parts because of video time restrictions. It is nice to see it as it was intended, uncut and uncensored... :p

Thank you for the feedback!

Production Notes:

* This animation was made using Deluxe Paint 5 on a Commodore Amiga A1200.

* There were about 10 files with approximately 30 seconds of animation each due to RAM restrictions, edited together to appear continuous.

* Animation runs at 10 frames per second because 24 frames would have used more data, plus 10 frames looks choppier for effect.

* When animating, the audio portion was only on audio cassette. Synchronization between the tape and the character's mouths, along with everything else, was all done by eye and ear. When a section of animation was complete, I would play the cassette while watching the animation to see if it was synchronized.

* Many Easter Eggs appear in this animation, can you spot them all? For example: when the crew steal back the Enterprise, there are admission prices posted on a sign in the background.

* 95% of the animation "flaws" were done purposely; however, there were some that were done on accident. All were left in to serve as part of the joke.

I really liked the cloaking device. You should do all of the films!
