Waddaya mean just jamming?
I just finished it and uploaded for your final approval. I’m especially doubtful about the right-hand chain and the stereo channel split, but I’m pretty happy with the X-flip.
P.S. Is he holding a skull?

Dude, that slaps so HAAAAAAAAAAAAARD!
The right hand chain is OK. I intentionally went the other way and just let the background cut out behind the moving chain parts, but I’m fine with it being black instead. I mean, it reads right. The x-flip on the character is money, combined with the music it makes him look really anxious about his choices.
Super cool. Ship it. Once you publish, I’ll link to it here too.
The only difference I see from the last version is the shark’s position. Did you change something else?
If you’re looking for something else get fancy about, I’d randomize the bubbles. Getting them offset from each other, and then adding a little random mutating delay between their loops will make it look more organic.
Same with the eye blink and mouth anims: giving them random delays so their loops no longer sync up, and there a periods where he isn’t speaking, is a cheap way to make it look more complex.
