"Just like TV."

submission: GunChest Epis 01_01

date: April 14, 2008

I usually tend to be harsher with this kind of flash... But, heck, It´s a real action robot series. And it´s here, on Newgrounds. With subtitles (that could use a little revision, by the way.). I´ll wait to see more chapters before pointing out at something, I´m too hyped right now to be fair.

But it would be nice if the submitter could tell us something about the creative process of a professional series like this one. This is the only thing I´d ask for now.

Score: 8

"Yessir."

submission: Tetris-Sticks

One of the best stickman movies I´ve seen in months. Colorful and refreshing style. Smooth framerate and charming concept. I loved it.
Congrats, man. You made it.

Score: 8

"I loved it."

Great artwork. The physics engine adds a really fresh air to the ol´ lifts an´ switches puzzle platformer. And the vehicles really rock! The level score rating system is lovely...
More levels would be a nice addition to this.
I´d like to see a game like this with a more skill-oriented gameplay... with enemies, spikes, calculated jumps...
Oh, please, tell me that you´re already working in something like that!

"Still nice."

submission: The Corridor 2

date: April 11, 2008

But I think I liked the first one better. The idea of the "other self" could have fitted in the first movie. It´s nice to upload movies often, but not at the cost of making small chapters revolving about the same ideas.
And you don´t need such a thing as an "audio compressor". Flash already can do that. Check in: Collections>Flash Tutorials>Ultimate Tutorial 2 . In the "extra" section you will find the answer to that. Use also the NG preloader in the first frame and a stopallsounds script in the final frame.
Keep your guard raised.

Score: 7

"Interesting."

submission: The Corridor

date: April 9, 2008

You´ve been really close to make a really disturbing short. It has been a good idea using impressionist pictures as backgrounds, that works really good. Some things don´t really work as well, some FBF animations are poorly executed (especially the blinking of the eyes) and break the eerie setting. I was also surprised about the filesize, maybe you could have compressed the sound without losing much quality.
I liked it. You´re on the right lane of making scary pieces of animation. Just make some tweaks, and study more that David Lynch, Jan Svankjamer and Salad Fingers flicks.

Score: 7

"Surreal Success."

submission: Goerge

date: April 6, 2008

The main character is really nice, simple, but charming, with great facial expressions. The backgrounds give you the right "strange" feeling, plus, they´re pleasant to the eye. And I´m gonna download Zekey´s music right now.
On the "down" side, this is like a chapter of a series that ends too soon. A couple of scenes more would have been just right.
But this is a really good piece of interesting animation. Well done!

Score: 7

"Neat work."

submission: My New Room

date: April 4, 2008

I think you have almost all the options you could wish... Maybe adding the option of changing the color of draggable objects would be swell.
I think it´d be nice to find different styles in furniture and apparels... I mean, I think freedom of choice is key for this type of gadgets. Wouldn´t it be nice to have a Rock Star, Goth, Minimalist or Avant-garde styles for decorating?
I love the toy-like style, but I think toy-girls should be as bad as they wanna be.
Anyway, Congrats. I´d love to see more.

Score: 8

"Love the concept!!!"

submission: Stochastic

date: April 2, 2008

I still have to play it more deeply, but it´s really enjoyable right now! I really wanted a survival oldschool arcade game like Mr. Driller or Bomb Jack... I´ll PM you if I find something interesting to say!
To Games collection right now!

Score: 6

"Sombody tell MindChamber about this movie!"

submission: Kamikazi Airlines

date: April 2, 2008

The final speech is a bit too long but the realistic/phototraced style along with the silly jokes and the japanese accent voiceover worked very fine. Amusing and recommendable to an "Airplane" collection or similar.... (Maybe "Funny Movies"?)
Nice work.

Score: 7

"Yeah it´s a pity..."

submission: Played Freelancer?

date: March 29, 2008

...still... I´m really amazed of seeing an actual 3D engine running in flash... Maybe there´s some usage to it for making simple backgrounds, or whatever thingy to make some cool effects...
Oh, boy, this has made me daydream again!!!
Excellent work anyway. Congratulations.
