Krink Test (also referred to as Short Test on the thumbnail) is a short animation by Krinkels. It is a non-canon Madness Combat animation. Its animation process was streamed by Krinkels on his Twitch channel - it was done in five sessions and took 23.5 hours to make.
Plot[]
The animation takes place on a platform drawn in red scratchy lines over a black background with dim red lighting. The platform has two walls - on the back and on the right, while the left side is uncovered, creating the danger of falling into the void beneath. The animation starts with Hank J. Wimbleton and an Agent standing on the platform, with the latter standing next to the edge of the platform, staring into the distance. He is initially not aware of Hank, but he quickly realizes he is being snuck upon and turns to face his opponent. He swings a few punches at Hank, who dodges or blocks every attack. Hank then grabs the agent by the hand and pushes him towards the wall, but then lets go, and the enemy gets another chance to attack. Hank dodges the attack and quickly retaliates, punching the agent in the head with enough force to disfigure his face and send him flying into the wall - which slightly distorts and glitches after the impact. Hank walks up to the agent, who shows no signs of life, and uses two of his fists akin to a hammer and a chisel, to smash the agent's head, malforming it even futher and making sure the agent will not get up.
Immediately afterwards and A.T.P. Engineer drops in on the left side of the platform and engages Hank in combat. The protagonist evades engineer's unarmed attacks, and gets behind him, who responds by quickly turning and attacking again. Hank grabs the hand of his adversary and turns to face the edge of the platform. As the engineer tries to free himself from Hank's grasp, Hank throws him overhead and smashes his neck against the edge, killing him on the spot and sending him falling into the void.
Moments after that, an A.T.P. Soldat armed with an AK-74U drops in at the right side of the platform and opens fire immediately after landing. Hank, having quickly spotted the new enemy, evades the gunfire through performing an acrobatic maneuver. He quickly lunges at the soldat and grabs him, to which the soldat responds by shooting with his weapon, though the rifle is too long to be able to shoot Hank. The protagonist then smashes the enemy into the wall making him drop his weapon. He lifts the helpless soldat above himself, and changes his grip, so that he can effectively throw the enemy to the ground, which he does. As such, the third enemy is defeated.
As the soldat gets thrown on the floor, two new adversaries appear - a Half Mag Engineer on the left and an agent on the right. As Hank prepares to fight the agent, the enlarged engineer grabs him, and swings him at the floor. However, before Hank hits the ground, he grabs onto the nearby agent, the force being big enough to press the agent into the ground and liquefy the lower half of his body into a bloody mush, while Hank himself is saved from splattering against the floor, due to the agent's body acting like a cushion. As the engineer raises Hank again, the protagonist turns to face him, still holding the agent's remains. The engineer looks at Hank, seemingly oblivious to what's about to happen. Hank then smashes the engineer in the face with the agent's corpse, which dents the enemy's mask and covers it in blood, while also making him let go of Hank. The engineer seems frustrated and throws a punch while dashing towards Hank, who uses his athletic skils to dodge the attack. Now standing near the soldat's body, the engineer grabs it and throws it at Hank, but yet again, the effort is futile as the protagonist dodges the attack, while the soldat's body splatters on the floor. Hank runs up to the engineer and dodges one more swing of his fist, then jumps towards him and latches onto him. He grabs the engineer's chest, strong enough to cause bleeding, and tears off the chunk of flesh. The engineer sways on his feet, and soon collapses onto the ground. As Hank emerges victorious from the confrontation, the screen fades to black and the animation comes to an end.

Trivia[]
- While the Half Mag Engineer has visible rocks growing on his head, he dies from just having a chunk of flesh torn out of his chest. He seemingly lacks the injury resistance of rock-headed Half Mags that is seen in Madness Combat 12: Contravention.
Errors[]
- (0:37) As the Half-Mag Engineer's head is seen from the front for a few frames, it still uses a placeholder sprite - the mask is undamaged and has a red circle on it. While creating the animation Krinkels said he would draw this sprite later, but he eventually did not, either forgetting about it, or deliberately deciding not to do so.
- (0:38) When the Half Mag Engineer picks up the Soldat's corpse, one can see that the floor behind the body is clean, even though there should be a visible puddle of blood due to an Agent's body being crushed against the floor and liquefying at (0:30).
