"Once again..."

submission: The Brotherhood of Light

date: July 14, 2008

I am astounded at the quality of some of the first submissions on here. This really was excellent, it makes my first Flash look like crap :3 You use a tablet, don't you? Lucky bastard.
Anyway, like I said, excellent work. You have a nice art style and the music fit well. A preloader might be a good idea but otherwise, you did great. You should definitely turn this into a series if you're willing to put the time and effort into it, and I look forward to seeing more from you. This is talented animation, keep it up!

Score: 9

"Man, I wish my first had been this good :D"

submission: >>my first flash<<

date: May 26, 2008

AMAZING. You have unbelievable talent. My first flash was about a poorly drawn guy beating up a refrigerator. This, on the other hand, was awesome. It looked mainly experimental, I didn't pick up on much of a plotline, but the effects, especially, were awesome. I loved the arrows, they worked out really well with the credits and all. Excellent, excellent job. This is a medium you should certainly pursue as you have remarkable talent. I've been animating for four years and I'm still nowhere as good as you. AWESOME JOB. I can't wait to see more from you.

Score: 10

"Haven't seen something this funny in ages"

submission: L337 Kr3w: Reanimation

date: May 20, 2008

TOTALLY FREAKING AWESOME. Oh my god, this was great. It didn't need masterwork art or a completely original plotline to be funny, it was anyway. I must say, playing off of every shonen anime and Street Fighter cliche there is was quite an undertaking, but I think you've pretty well managed it here. Nice animation, very nice choice of music and great characters too. Awesome job.

Score: 8

"Not bad, I liked it!"

submission: The Three Musketeers

date: May 17, 2008

In general, a very funny flash. Nice animation in the combat scenes; though the art wasn't the best, the animation was smooth and quite well done. My only real complaint was the sound, it never stayed at the same volume level and kept shifting between the left and right speakers. I like this, though. Humorous, plenty of action. Definitely a keeper.

Score: 10

"This is some new-age stickness."

submission: GhostFight-BOS-Part1

date: April 30, 2008

Perfect. Really, perfect. It has a completely different look from all other stick fights, the special effects kick so many kinds of ass, the excellent graphics and the varying music is awesome. The "interactivity" thing is cool too. In general, not only is it awesome, but it's like you're watching a slightly different movie each time.
Man, I want those swords. Swordfights with the occasional bit of pwnage sorcery here and there are badass anyway. Great job.

Score: 10

"Spectacular"

submission: Xionic Madness

date: April 20, 2008

THE BEST Madness spinoff ever. No doubt. Excellent animation, decent dialogue, great music, unique weaponry and the inclusion of a female character and a plotline combine to make this one of the best movies on NG. It deserves higher than 4.25, and I think I actually like it better than the original Madness series! EXCELLENT JOB, and I can't wait for number 2!!

:D

Score: 8

"A standard stick fight..."

submission: 300 Sticks

date: April 20, 2008

...but, as usual, they never get old. Nice animation. It definitely warranted 3rd place, maybe higher.

Score: 7

"A great idea!"

submission: Jaina in the Morning

date: April 17, 2008

This is a great idea for a short, but this version has a couple problems. First and foremost, NEVER USE JPEGS in your animations unless they're the highest possible quality and you know exactly what you're doing. They usually look like crap. Secondly, I liked the art a lot, but the animation was rather choppy. If you remade this with your own backgrounds and slightly better animation it would be totally awesome.
Like I said, it's a great idea. Keep it up!

Score: 8

"Very good, only a couple things..."

submission: Thing-Thing 4

date: April 9, 2008

I liked this. It's true, it was very similar to TT3, but TT3 was awesome so there's really nothing wrong with that. Excellent graphics, good music, all that. And I liked the cutscenes that came up from time to time. Very nice.
But the gore was ludicrous and completely unrealistic. Any time you kill someone with a headshot, you have their head flying into pieces in an impossible fashion, seeing as the brain cleanly separates from the skull in one piece. If a bullet was powerful enough to actually tear a head apart (Many of the guns in this game aren't) the brain wouldn't cleanly be severed from the spinal cord and certainly wouldn't proceed to bounce around the floor as though it were made of rubber. I'm hoping I don't sound too over-analytic of the bloody details, but it just seems like a poorly set up excuse to show excess gore. Plus, since the corpses no longer fade out after a time, you're eventually up to your waste in brains and skull fragments. Now, I certainly don't mind a little gore in games, but I find that just a little bit nasty.
And one other thing. More melee weapons. A lead pipe is all well and good, but what it really needs is an axe or a katana--something along those lines. In any game, lots of melee weapons = awesomeness. There, now I sound like a normal gamer again. :P
Otherwise, though, very nicely done.

Score: 10

"You've done it again..."

submission: Boxhead The Zombie Wars

date: March 30, 2008

...Perfected the art of third-person survival. This one's my favorite yet, for one main reason: it's no longer just a game in which you mindlessly go around and blast zombies six ways to Sunday (not that there's anything wrong with that). They come much faster now, in bigger hordes, and the levels are irregularly shaped and can be used to your advantage. Strategy is essential for survival.
Also, the new graphics look excellent; for some reason the levels remind me of Starcraft maps. I love the new enemies--except for the vampires, they're tricky little buggers--and the new weapons. Although I think you should bring back the Uzi. It's a classic.
All in all, great game, excellent work, encore, bravo, kudos, and so on and so forth. I love this. And here's a hint for new players: In "Classic" mode, build a fortress out of barricades as soon as possible and fill it with turrets. In the meantime, watch out for teleporting, bloodsucking S.O.B.s!
