Thermostat 6 delivers an absurd yet entertaining story about a family that values enjoying their dinner more than fixing a broken water pipe that's on the verge of flooding their home. The animation style evokes old-school classics like Lady and the Tramp, Scooby-Doo, or Popeye-though with a slightly blockier, sketchier edge. The flat, almost 2D feel, along with the vintage color palette, character design, and audio, all add to that nostalgic charm. The humor lands well, and the plot twist doubles as a clever cliffhanger, making this short both funny and memorable.
