"Awesome game"

submission: StarBaron - Skirmish

date: July 28, 2008

Really good game. But the one draw back that apparently a lot of other people also didn't like was a big negative in my book. We need a select all, then press same button to deselect all. Nothing sucks more than owning 3/4 of the entire area, then accidentally selecting all and turning them all into economy =(

Quit the game many times out of frustration. Other than that the game is awesome =)

Score: 9

"A+"

submission: SMOKESUIT -TheBigSurprise

date: March 30, 2007

*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.

"I felt like giving it a 0!!!!!!!"

submission: Hart's Valentine

date: February 13, 2007

Totally not your fault though... -.-...

I'm just spludgin' tired of that goofy chase scene song that's been a gazillion times overused... practically every cartoon has used it, but I was sooooo glad you didn't turn to the classic running from multiple doors/windows/gates/tunnels/ca ves with them coming from all different directions and then bumping into each other then the remix and repeat all again... *takes deep breath*...

I have no idea why people still think that chase scene scenario is funny anymore... arghh... but you only used it because he was chasing the guy :p

Anyway, now that i've vented :p

It was funny though, go NH! (MA neighbor here :D)

Score: 1

"Sorry man..."

submission: Battlefield General

date: February 13, 2007

The game looks phenomenal, and fun... but...

My computer aint the best, but it's decent, and if I can play WoW in this a definitely should be able to play a flash game on LOW quality without having it lag indefinitely :/...

I'm sure the game is the best, but my scores are severely limited to what I could experience in the very short circumstances where I could actually play.

If you ever do work on that, I'll be sure to give you a proper score :)

Till then good luck!

Score: 9

"Awesome"

submission: Good Morning!

date: February 12, 2007

Only constructive criticism is when the guy finally comes dressed out of shower it doesn't move as smoothly. And unless you wanted the funny look anyway the angle of the legs as they steps looked like they werent attached to the same body if you know what I mean :p Like | | instead of /\... XD can't explain it well but either way I doubt anyone would really care about that. Just so you can get even better :)

Showed it to everyone at work, school, and home :D It was soooo good :) It's short and to the point, and a good funny twist. You definitely put alot of work on it, and it really shows! Like REALLY! And we all appreciate the quality of the work :)

G'luck with future submissions!

"Good Potential"

submission: Eternal Descent Teaser

date: November 14, 2006

Ok, I'm going to be honest with you, maybe blatantly.

The Art was good, but the image of her falling was almost exactly the same (If not the same in actuality, just don't want to say definetely in case it's just really similar...). The movement was choppy and with little detail. The part where the male protagonist is being attacked by some monster hand basically just move the character back and foward while the reflected animation of an arm switches back and foward. Use way more parts next time, show the movements of the arm, change the angles, change the character, make the guy move or do something, anything to show a little more action next time.

The female needed more than just a profile view.

It was way too short, and though it's a teaser it's too short even for a teaser. And considering how short it is the art should be of much higher quality when taking the short amount of scenes needed. And more movements of parts too, like the wings, and such.

But now to the good parts :)

The music was really well fitted and was just loud enough. Awesome way with the buildings there. The shading is well done. The detail on the characters are well done and I understand how difficult it is to make the moving hair and all that look good to props to you. It's important when creating characters to realize that the more detailed and more time you spend drawing the characters means more time spending to make each piece move independently. Also that you must make sure you keep all those things shown from more than one angle. Try to keep your animation and your drawing equal or else you'll draw more attention to something you don't want to and vice versa :)

The legs of the angel looked a bit funny but moved smoothly.

The male's hair was really well animated and nice job on the skirt flapping differently than the hair and making us feel at which speed she was falling :)

And the fog in the begginning was well made :)

Y'all might notice that there's alot of comments here and yet my grade's still high. Well first of all I only comment when I know an artist might actually find it useful. Secondly it definetly shows more potential than some of the other stuff we see here. And thirdly, one can find flaws on anything, and it doesn't draw away that the art was amazing anyway. If you want to complain go try to do something better than that...

Nice vid, and looking foward to your series, and don't rush it.

Good luck!

"Good :)"

submission: Joker and the Thief

date: October 2, 2006

This was an awesome experience, and definetely entertaining. Ya could make a sequel with more escapades, but either way the open ending was good enough.

The music was awesome, although I'm still wondering who "the thief" is... I mean that was the jokerman's story, where's the next half??? >:3

The art needs work. You covered it up pretty well, and if most of newgrounds' awesome art had half the story and style to it your flash had we'd be set. However either way the truth of the matter is there's overusage of the 3D environment thingers, and limited variety of characters or body parts :( I'm sure you thought the 3D thingersmajigers were cool but they were sort of bland and gray and such. But you'll get there with practice! :D

The style was amazing! The "eep" the "nono come closer" and all the rest were really well used! (Next time make the kapow thing faster and smaller).

I gave it a 5 anyway because it deserves higher than the 3.5 it has, but either way you've shown awesome skills that just needs some more polishing :)

P.S. That's a HUGE file, if I was on dial up I would've been figgering med! XD

Como voce ousa a fazer uma coisa tao feia assim?!

BLAM!!!! Esse troco horrivel!!

No Jk :p Was just too tempting to pass up the opportunity to say something in pork-N-cheez :D

Anyway it was great, the graphics were awesome and was just random enough :)

Keep making more!

"Great idea."

submission: Life Factory

date: September 3, 2006

We definetely get alot of weird ideas like that. It's great that you actually went through and made it :)

I have to admit the matrix-esque thing was a bit too cliche it, but nonetheless very entertaining. Work a bit more on your art work and you'll go far :)

Thanks for an addition to my favourites! :)
