WH40K Collab

"Sorry I missed out on this"

submission: WH40K Collab
date: November 8, 2009

I remember when this was still a thread in the forums and I really wanted to get on board, but I couldn't find the time or inspiration to get a good 40k Flash done. It would have been nice to be a part of this!

I'll be honest - some parts of this weren't very funny at all. I cringed at a few in-jokes or missed humor, but the good generally outweighed the bad. Flashbound - your visuals are fantastic. You really stepped up your game with this one. Nice attempt at a Johnny Utah-esque bit.

The sound went out of sync near the end, and trust me I've dealt with that glitch enough times. It also bothered me that when shots zoomed in, the navigation menu would go with them. Also, there's a lot of custom fonts from what I could tell, because Arial text overlapped all over the place. Break apart text done in special fonts - that way it'll show up as a graphic on everyone's computer, not just computers with the font installed. You lose a point for technical problems, but as you said you'll update it once you get some bugs fixed.

"I Kissed a Spawn" was pretty goddamn funny, I have to say. There were some really good parts and some definite stinkers here, but that's par for the course for a collab, isn't it? Here's hoping I'll be able to get on board when the Warhammer 40k Collab 2 comes out :)

Epic Battle Albino!!!

"This here is quality"

date: October 26, 2009

Filter rape, motion tweens, dramatic music, and a purposely underwhelming loop ending. This is how you do spam folks.

Also, I totally lost it when I saw that the fetus was holding a gun.

Halo-Re-Evolved

"Unnecessary"

submission: Halo-Re-Evolved
date: October 18, 2009

Putting a transparent green overlay and a few boxes here and there doesn't really justify this. You just put this crap on a few layers over footage of Halo 1 that was probably ripped from Youtube. It's a kind of cool idea - if you actually applied that to a Flash you drew, that could actually be pretty kickass. However, the time and effort it takes to use the rectangle tool and change one paint color's alpha are negligible. The only reason I can see why this has a score as high as it does is because of nostalgia for Halo 1.

I'm sorry but you're going to have to try harder than this.

Eh, oh well, back to the drawing board then.

It was after all, something I wanted to try for fun.

"Great!"

submission: .:Arabic Desert:.
date: July 31, 2009

I really enjoyed this song; I was looking for some music to fit into a desert scene in a Flash of mine, and this was right on target! Reminds me of Age of Empries :)

"Absolutely wonderful."

submission: Candy Zoo
date: April 25, 2009

I have no idea how you could have managed to keep a straight face through those incredibly cutesy lyrics. I would have started cracking up after the first verse, that's for sure. Funny, catchy, and adorable. I'm using this in my next flash, that's for sure.

Hehe well I didnt sing the lyrics, but after the tenth take of singing them you kind of cant be bothered messing it up by laughing :P. Still makes me smile to listen to though. Glad you like it and I look forward to your flash! Cheers for the review.

"So..."

submission: Mixión
date: March 2, 2009

You took Daft Punk's "Robot Rock" and lumped on a load of samples that don't sync up with it in the slightest. There's something called timing you should really look into, as the beats were way the hell off.
If your going to sample music by someone who knows what they're doing, be sure to pay them some tribute by making the music actually listenable. This was flat out painful.
