Is Tropical - The Greeks

I saw this animation in 2011 when it came out but i recently remembered it again. The thing i love about this animation is the fact they have illustrated the imagination of kids. Though it seems way too graphic for children's imagination, i definitely remember playing games like this with my friends when i was younger. I also love the fact that the stuff around them isn't really affected in the scene to show that it is just children's imagination illustrated, such as the casual man barbecuing in the background as a boy gets killed with a flamethrower, and an old lady walking getting sniped but not being affected. i also love the fact that the colours and style of the explosions feel very looney tunes esque, though it wouldn't show as much blood as in this video but the colours and the smoke clouds from explosions feel very much Acme esque. i also like the compositing of the animation and the way that though its 2D it still is on different layers of the perspective, such as explosion clouds being both in front and behind one of the boys without feeling too contrasting.
