I'm really disappointed that you used such amazing artistic skills in a very overused story... But still, your artwork is incredible, just be careful of animating for the point of animating. Like her falling down the stairs, and other small parts that seemed irrelevant to the story.

Keep on truckin' though, because you'll go far with that much skill!

=)

Loved the game, it was sick. And I don't think the AI is that bad. It was sort of annoying that enemy AI seemed better, but I got over it.

The only annoying thing was that almost every single enemy could heal itself. I swear the rock I kicked on my way towards the Baron just healed it self back up =/

It made the game basically a battle on how to outsmart the enemies by blocking their healing at the right time than an actual fight =(

But either way, you should feel proud that there's so much criticism. It means these guys are judging you on a whole new level. We're making criticism on the level of platform games, where in other flashes we go like "More blue!" or "I threw the ragdoll 200!" or "I played it for like 20 minutes~!". Here we're criticizing your musical score, artificial intelligence coding and such =)

On a minor note, when in stores, you should be able to switch to your partners and see their items. And it'd also be useful to see the stats of your items next to another items to compare.

Thanks a lot for taking your time to make this!

*SPOILERS*

The whole goth suicide thing is way overdone and a boring cliche. The song was too emo/whatever for me, the noose was predictable and I would've liked something more in the end making it more philosophical then her really dying...

But this video is only been done before in attempt, not execution. The whole goth atmosphere and suicide theme was only lacking originality because of the probably hundreds of flashes we see trying to accomplish what you did.

In a sense your video looked, but most importantly felt, like this was done before the topic had been overdone. The animation was good, and frighteningly smooth. Awesome use of the same picture many times but in so many different ways that we don't mind (front view of her eyes, cut up, with tears, second tear and so on...).

The noose being created was incredible. And though once we saw it we knew we expected it, the artwork was so captivating, as it wove itself from her tears, that we were totally spellbound and surprised. The constructive criticism I can give is few. Work a little bit more on characters' profile as it didn't totally match her from the front, and did not seem as well drawn. People might have mentioned it already but the animation of the guitarist was well... orgasmic... more of that kind of professional quality work would've been amazing. Also when her eyes are dark near the end and the screen sorta zooms out her eyes are closed, then zooms in for open. But in such a trippy ending that effect could've been psycho on purpose.

I'm going to check your other stuff out and again, great GREAT work. Everything is cliche nowadays and it's only someone ingeniously creative and unique that can take something we've all seen and make it not only their own but better than some of the originals.
