"Pretty good."

submission: Marblet

date: October 14, 2009

It's definitely a very addictive game. It has that challenging aspect to it that makes you want to come back and play just to spite the game. In other words, fun.

Pretty good graphics, which is a plus.

However, it's rather annoying to have to go back to the main menu and enter a password every time you die on a level. It would have been much better were you to have just made it so that you automatically respawned at the beginning of the level.

I also agree with another reviewer who mentioned that this could have been improved if it was mouse controlled as opposed to arrow controlled. The physics and the movement of the marble are just too hard to control with the arrow keys at times.

But, nonetheless, fun.

"I liked it."

submission: The Future Wasn't There

date: September 18, 2009

I like the overall plot and I think that the storyline flowed well. I think it was a good decision to not go farther than when he stepped inside the time machine because otherwise, it would have had a cliche feeling that would have taken away from it.

I like the colorful linework of the characters. It was a unique touch.

The only thing I feel takes points away is that though I liked the music and I think that the music really fit what was happening, there was no transition between the individual music pieces which made it a bit awkward to listen to, particularly being that there was no dialog. I think that fading the clips in and out would add to this.

4/5

"Okay."

submission: An odd movie

date: August 15, 2009

Well, your animation is smooth, so you get points for that.

It leaves a lot to be desired, though.

First is, add a preloader. Always add a preloader. If you don't know how to make one yourself, there's a whole bunch of them here on ng for you to use if you click the 'downloads' link under the header. There's also a number of preloader tutorials in the flash tutorials section.

Second, add sound. Sound makes everything more interesting. If you don't have it, your flash will seem a hell of a lot more boring than if you had sound.

Third, it was extremely short. Too short. Spend a while adding on parts to your flash, though I know the longing to submit your first flash. I did the same thing with my first submission.

There's potential here, though. Keep working on it.

2/5

(You're going to get a higher score on this today than you would any other day of the year because it's clock day. Most people won't even watch your flash. Bad day to submit it if you want feedback and a fair score.)

"Very well done :D"

submission: License to Combo

date: July 10, 2009

I've never really been a fan of stick flashes, but this one was really well animated and well executed.

You got the physics of the characters' motions spot on. I particularly liked the slow motion matrix-esque parts, like where the guy jumped off the wall, et al. I can tell you put a lot of work into those movements.

I got scared at first when I saw that you started out with just a white background, but then you added some more interesting backgrounds and set ups, so you definitely get points for that.

You also really set the mood with the music.

The only problem was the problem that I have with most stick flashes. There was no real story line to carry the flash along. It was just different little fight scenes. However, the way that you varied the actions that the characters made mostly compensated for that, but it's still something I suggest you consider in the future.

Overall, very nice. :D

"Not great."

submission: breaking the habit FBF

date: July 6, 2009

The animation was okay, particularly for you first fbf flash. Some of them could use some work; some of them were okay. I like that little bit at the beginning where the head broke in two.

I think for something like this, however, you need to up the frame rate so it isn't so choppy. Also, onion skin is your best friend.

The biggest problem with this flash is that the flash was way too random for how long it was. Breaking the Habit is what, a three or four minute song? That's a lot of space to fill and it gets really boring if the fill is completely random. It would have been much better had you incorporated some some of logical storyline to go along with the song. Alternatively, you could have only animated part of the song with the randomness.

Heh, my fbf wasn't any better. It was probably worse.

Score: 8

"Pretty good."

submission: Gives You Hell

date: April 20, 2009

I really loved what you did with this flash. I loved all the different ways you played with the words and all that jazz.

I just wish that you'd done the whole song because it just seemed too short.

4/5

"Hahah, what?"

submission: air holes

date: March 13, 2009

That was definitely an odd little thing.
I don't have many complaints. The animation wasn't amazing, but I don't think it needed to be.

It's randomness delivered well, so well done on that.

"Wow."

submission: Reckoner

date: March 13, 2009

This is definitely one of the most unique flashes I've ever seen on here.

It's hard to have real-life images and put them into a convincing and non-youtube like way, but you managed to pull it off. It kind of reminded me of a collage at points.

Nice animation, nice symbolism, nice job :D

Favorited and 5/5

"Pretty funny"

submission: Random Kingdom

date: November 29, 2008

Pretty well done and pretty funny.

Not much to say about it, really. I liked the Arnold Schwarzenegger part.

The graphics are somewhat tweentasic, but it's not too noticeable.

4/5

"Pretty awesome"

submission: *^SuDoKu^*

date: November 29, 2008

My only complaint is that the changing rainbow background in the actual puzzles was kind of distracting.

Other than that, very fun.
