"It's a start, and a bit of a twist on the formula"

submission: megaman...euhm were is he

date: December 24, 2008

First off, I've never seen a Mario flash where he is Megaman. An odd concept, but it actually worked out surprisingly well. Given Mario's many costumes and power up suits, I'm actually surprised noone else has thought to combine the two!

Made me nostalgic for the classic old Megaman games as well. I loved playing them back in the day, and using authentic music from them made the movie work well. It was even laid out like a decent level, which helped it feel fairly authentic to the experience.

My main complaint would be that it is just too small. The stage is about 80% empty, just a white void. Make the backgrounds and sprites bigger and fill up the screen. Everything is small and hard to see, and making things bigger in flash is simple as could be.

Hopefully for the next flash you do you'll have backgrounds that fill up the screen better, and action that doesn't require eye strain to watch. A very solid first flash though.
PS: Was I in the special thanks part of the credits? Very kind of you, and good luck on your future submissions!

"Awesome"

submission: .: Mechanical Commando :.

date: December 24, 2008

Graphics were nice, but the gameplay was excellent. Controls were slick and well mapped out, and everything blew up real good.

I do wish there was a little more in the way of power ups though. I saw that my machine guns built up more and more which was cool, but some sort of temporary force field or satellite gun could have been pretty cool. Then again, I just played a lot of bullet hell vertical flight shooters as a kid, which this game makes me nostalgic for.

Overall, a very good game with plenty to offer. Even sticks with the old tradition of becoming brutally difficult by the end, since I couldn't find a healthpack by the end of the first level!

Score: 5

"Great title"

submission: LL - Hippie Zombies

date: December 23, 2008

But it seems like more could have been done. Yes, they are hippie zombies, something hilarious in and of itself, but they could do a bit more in the flash. If, possibly, the flash followed their hippie zombie exploits, it could be very entertaining. This, however, just seems like the beginning of a greater flash. Decent work, if brief.

Score: 7

"Nice"

submission: Yuletide Intentions

date: December 23, 2008

The visual style in this flash is solid, if sometimes a bit stiff. Overall it looks good though. The brief gunfight looked the best, especially the 3-D bending bullet like in Wanted. The humor, on the other hand, was a bit lacking. The whole part with Santa at the end seemed kind of like a poor attempt at the "Awesome" style of humor. The rest of the toon, however, was very good.

Fine work, keep it up.

Score: 1

"No real animation, and a poor message"

submission: What is a Juggalo?

date: December 20, 2008

In my experience, every Juggalo I've met has been a total douche, going to the level of personally attacking me out of the blue. Then they pull the "tough guy" bullshit that makes them look like morons. Then again, this is only for all the ones I've met or heard of, which is an unfortunate many.

As for the flash itself, it was just text fading in and out. Nothing interesting to look at. Meanwhile, some guy talked. Just boring and uninspired, and inaccurate to boot.

Score: 7

"Good stuff"

submission: Autumn Shade - War

date: December 14, 2008

In all honesty, it may have just been better to skip the scrolling pictures intro. They set me up for something like a slideshow, but I stuck through them to watch the animation. I know that not everyone will do that, and may vote low just because they see the slideshow in the beginning.

However, the animation itself is solid. Very stylish, as it was almost all purely silhouettes. Some of your shots looked a bit more like World War 1 though; namely the people running through the no-man's lands only to be brutally cut down. Some further innacuracies (mortars don't give off a flash from the barrel) but those are purely nitpicking, and do little to affect the overall quality of the flash.

The music was a bit of an anachronism, but the mood it set went well with the animation itself. Good work, looking forward to more.

Score: 10

"Beautiful"

submission: Look up at the sky

date: December 13, 2008

This animation was almost trancelike - the music was hypnotic, and the visuals were so incredibly smooth. They reflected the feeling of looking up at the changing sky rather well, especially in the night sequence with the stars blinking in time to the music.

The art was great - excellent shading and a good use of effects. The pulsing stars and symbols on the character's helmet were well synced to the music and looked solid.

I rarely give out tens, but your animation has really gotten to me. Your work never disappoints.

Score: 5

"A decent joke, nothing more"

submission: GKG review: DB the movie

date: December 13, 2008

I watched the Dragonball trailer with a few friends, and our reaction was exactly like yours, just louder and angrier.

The art was mostly just a few screenshots and some half decent animation at the end. As you said, however - quick flash, and that it looks horrible. I don't think it looks quite that bad, but it's not great by any means.

The reaction itself is a pretty good joke. I agree with it completely.

Score: 10

"I love your work, and this is no exception."

submission: tWHYlight

date: December 12, 2008

Your art and animation just keep getting better and better with each Siblings cartoon. Even though you said you got real lazy on the Twilight movie sequences, they still looked great for what they were meant to convey.

The humor never ceases to entertain either. Quick witted jokes and some over the top performances really make this episode stand out. Also, your take on Twilight was really entertaining. I didn't see the movie, but from everything I've heard from my friends about it, you hit it right on the head.

I really hope this flash gets the attention it deserves and gets front page! Great work, and really looking forward to the next Siblings flash!

Score: 6

"Rather "meh""

submission: BiteyCastle Christmas

date: December 12, 2008

The art was up to your excellent standard, but the animation was very limited.

The joke was not very funny, and left me wanting, waiting for something funny to happen.

My score is reflective purely of the art quality. As pretty as this flash is, it lacks entertainment value.
