18. Suits

A community of off-world colonisers inspired by their rural western roots defend their farms from an alien invasion with their large mechanised suits. What feels like an animated version of Firefly with an incredibly similar musical score in addition to the space western concept, none of this short's good ideas manage to feel original.

Aside from the heavy Firefly inspiration, the animation isn't particularly impressive and when it quickly devolves into the action against the oncoming aliens, the fighting feels generic and unimpressive. In one of the easily most forgettable shorts of the collection, Suits has nothing of great value to offer and the worst thing that can be said about it is you wouldn't miss a thing if it wasn't there.

Clunky dialogue and characterisation as well as bland mech and alien designs make up the rest of the worst short in the series. If you want something with a similar feel, just watch Firefly instead.
