Western Animation/Cartoon in General

Don't know if there's any other threads or if this is the best place for Indie Animation but I just watched Planetronika.

I think it succeeded in that early 2000s Canadian-French Animation vibe. Perhaps too much since part of it feels like a bunch of different slides squeezed into something without any coherent story. Overall it looks good, but lacks a satisfying amount of SETTING establishment and seems to just dump a dozen character designs near the end.

Ideally it could have been a little longer or maybe put more focus on who's who's. Specifically the tiny sphere helpers. Not sure what else to say other than it being sufficient as a pilot, because it does have good character designs and captures the Y2K vibe nearly perfectly.
 
Yeah, animation is nice, though it does feel rather disjointed. More side-gags than a throughline.

The Setting has enough 'flavour' to it feel reasonably distinct, while simultaneously not really having a current direction to say much about what's it like/about. Also not entirely sure whether this will mainly be whacky-slice-of-life or if it'd have an overall plot down the line.
