Talk about a bad trip.

I was feeling uncomfortable watching him go through the trip, must've been hell to go through it. Anyways, this is very impressive stuff. Very drug trippy and chaotic with the voices and the sounds. Everything looked great and had a very distinct feel to it.

It's really innovative that you used something fairly common to do your halloween piece about. While pretty much everyone else will have garishly dressed serial killers and cliche zombies, you've made a horror story concerning only one person who is being attacked by their own mind. Let's stop for a second and take in how deep that really is... Alright, very good job. One of the best halloween submissions so far.

I'd like to just say that the most impressive thing is the fact that it took you only 19 days to make this. You must've been pulling a lot of all-nighters. And your dedication to this flash really shows. Excellent job.

When I was lying in bed at night with my eyes closed, I realised I was only waiting, hours to fall asleep and how much time gets wasted, so I always got up and worked through the night. I set myself goals like finishing 3 scenes each day to get it done in time. I often did 6 sometimes 10. I couldnt get this freaking movie out of my head.
I´m so damn glad this is done.

And I was actually worried about the fact this has no halloween theme. I mean it´s intended but I´m not sure about how the NG community takes it. But I´m glad it already only pays off from that my original intentions with this movie were. I managed to create the the atmosphere I always wanted to.
I´m so glad it works out.

Thanks alot.

Pretty Straight-forward

I know exactly what you mean. I hate those ads so goddamn much. I hate that one, the one where you can hear pictures taken, and the smiley-face ones where if your cursor rolls over it you hear some dumb-ass yelling or something.

Anyways, the flash itself is pretty decent. Pretty straight-forward point and so the below average graphics become acceptable since you're not exactly going for anything but a quick word in. Voice-acting was fine the same way the graphics were fine. In short, good job but don't expect the same response if you made a different kind of flash. Usually we'd expect better quality graphics but it went with the style so it's fine.

Pretty good.

I liked it. The calculus one was my favorite since I'm taking Pre-cal right now and that whole thing sounded like me and my friend when we're in the class. But all of them were pretty funny and quick. It's nice to see some clean innocent humor that isn't corny. The graphics are nice, it looks good and runs smoothly. You didn't short-cut it and everything was balenced. Good job. It had good voice acting too. It sounded diverse even though you apparently did all the voice, that's impressive.

So all in all, a good job. I'm gonna have to take a look at your other stuff.

Wow, thanks a bunch. ^_^

[Little Fighter Alpha Ch.8]

This is...

Sprites to the eXtreme. The graphics are great, everything moved smoothly and the fighting was intense, probably the most intense fighting I have ever seen in a Sprite Flash, very excellent job. The style was good, the way everything was presented and with none-looping backgrounds. The violence was the best part, well-done and smooth which is how it should be done. Maybe you can consider adding voice-overs but it isn't needed and probably wise if you didn't.

Overall, this is top-of-the-line shit. I can't imagine how much effort you put in this, whatever it was it showed.

MaxR responds:

thanks, I tried to make my fights long, tense, and interesting, without the stalling parts. And I have accomplished that in this chapter. I'm still not sure about voices, since 8 chapters has gone by without them.

Nice sad feel.

Very nice depressing flash. The graphics were done excellently although there is the mistake with his walking, but I can ignore it. Style is really good too, the story has been done many times to the point where it's almost a cliche. But you brought a new style to it with the robots plans and stuff. The sounds were very nicely done, the music also had the exact some tone as the flash so it went along with it really nicely.

Overall, a great depressing flash that I personally really liked.

BlackmarketKraig responds:

Nice sad feel... for some reason that header makes me think of velvet.

Thanks for ignoring the problem with the walk. Heh, I feel pretty stupid about that already.

I'm happy that you liked my depressing flash(that sounds weird, doesn't it?).

Thanks for reviewing and the great score! :D

[Tin:The Incompetent Ninja]

You made that for school?

That's pretty violent for a school project. Anyways, the graphics in this are very nicely done, it moved smoothly and lloked good moving smoothly. I really liked the whole ninja black and white style to this and how the blood was the only thing colored, nice! The music went along with the flash perfectly, so good job with that. And like I said it was pretty violent, and what I liked was that it wasn't overly unrealistically violent, but wholesomly violent.

Overall, a very nice flash and you look like you have quite a lot of potential. I hope to see more from you!

SnafuDave responds:

Dude this review rocked. Thanks for the detailed response. I'll try my best to umprove on the next Flash project I make. Thanks a ton man! And yeah I turned it in for a school project. My teacher is the bomb diggity and liked it. He's such an awesome teacher.

Average

This is an okay flash movie. It's not the best, but it's not the worse. The look of the movie was okay to say the least, it wasn't drawn as good as I'd like (not clear enough) not to mention the original one which in my oppinion looked really bad (I can't believe 60% liked it better. How?). The sound was the best part of this flash, the voice acting was done perfectly and the scream made me jump, so good job with that! The part I didn't like was the story and length. It was just too short for me to really get into it. I don't know what you could've added, but I think something else should've been added to it for more time.

Overall, an average flash. I can tell you have the power to get better, and so practice and you most definatly will get better. If the graphics had been done better, and if the story was more fleshed out, I would have enjoyed it a lot more.

inevitability responds:

Thanks for your sincere review. Thanks for the advice and for the motivation. And thanks for taking the time to write a descent review.
