    2. Orange Dot gives a smooch to Blue Dot, that's adorable.
    3. It's a wholesome story about making other people happy.

    I’d like to say thank you for that dot story.
    Just 1 hour ago I found out someone I loved had died. Some people may say it’s sick to watch RUclips after hearing bad news but I went here for comfort. I didn’t feel like talking to someone over the phone so I clicked this video. I’ve always loved animation. I want to be an animator when I grow up. This story that you made with these dots actually made me cry. Seeing how someone can really change the way your feeling, and I loved how you could tell such an amazing story with only dots, and even though your probably not gonna see this comment... I loved what you’ve done. You put a smile on my face. Thank you for that.

      Shadlen Plays its ok, everyone you love and care about is here for you! Don’t be sad about that person dying, remember, she/he will always be watching you from heaven! I haven’t felt the way that you have felt, but, it’s ok. Don’t be sad :) I’m here, and everyone else is, for you!

      I understand that completely. Last summer, my aunt died. I lived her and even though she wasn't the BEST person because, we are all human, it broke my heart to see my younger cousins (7 and 10). I was their older sister to them at that point. It pained me to know that their beloved mom had passed away. They held plushies that they got from her. Now that the Coronavirus is spreading (they are in Japan) it's a lot harder.
