If you've played enough old video games, perhaps you'll remember an Atari game called Adventure.
Well, I obviously remember it, anyway. Hence, a parody:

Very oldschool graphics, hehe. Very funny. Funny: "vibrating maidens' pleasure device -
barely used"

Liked the sounds according to the graphics.

Thanks, Tagirijus.
I never like to turn down the opportunity to make a secondhand vibrator joke.

Very funny! I used to play that game for hours...
Just two things I would suggest for the future. 1) Check sound levels, there were at least two times, where it was quite loud compared to the rest of the audio. 2) Trim the time down... or make it into mini episodes Attempt 1, Attempt 2,... so on... Most internet watchers have short attention spans...
Over all you have a lot of funny gags though out the whole thing, I love Avadot!!!

Nice, but you should of made it more fast paced cause it started to get boring.

Thanks for the constructive criticism, guys!
I have a tendency to favor a slower, more deliberate pace, but it's true that people on the Internet aren't known for their long attention spans. I usually end up struggling to figure out how long I can drag something out before people start to lose interest.

I looked at the vid again and noticed vibrating was misspelled as "vibating". Still, it's a funny gag.
It might be long for today's audience, but it IS well written. I like how it escalates like a roadrunner cartoon. Kudos to good story construction.

Ah, there it is. There's always at least one typo that manages to elude my detection.
In my defense, the dot is on the Internet. We all know people can't spell on the Internet.
Thanks, though. The Road Runner cartoons were a huge influence on this.

Yes, it was a bit long for the interwebs, but so what? It was good. Anyone who turns off halfway: **** 'em!

Love the Monty Python and Classic cartoon parodies. very entertaining. The part was the sword was my favorite.
