Cow in Submarine

"Nice concept"

submission: Cow in Submarine
date: February 19, 2008

Graphics aren't too bad, although I think background detail was lacking. It didn't look too "underwater-like", could have put in some coral, shells, fish, maybe a crab walking along the bottom. Maybe tint the layers blue to give a bit more depth, add a shipwreck, diver, or treasure chest or something like that to really bring the location to life. As for the submarine, it looked pretty cool, but the tweening looked a little weird and maybe it could have had bubbles coming out of the back to indicate forward thrust. Also, the submarine sank awfully fast for an object underwater. I think if you can capture the location, touch up on the movements and give the physics a bit more of a life like quality, then you'll have a very nice animation. But right now, it's quite enjoyable enough, the cartoon style is cool, and the cows were amusing. Good job.
Keep it up.

There was a shipwreck.

I was considering adding bubbles, but they came out weird.

Thanks for the review.

TheMostBeautifulDrawings

"Seriously"

date: February 15, 2008

That was incredibly amusing. The drawings were so bad. You did a good job making fun of them.
Your art and animation was good. Kind of teacher-like, pointing out grammar and missing legs in red. Very funny, very enjoyable. Makes for a good laugh.

Stan and Joe:"Valentine?"

"Funneh"

date: February 13, 2008

It's very short, but the joke is pretty good. Nice work. I'll recommend it for the valentines collection.

Mouse Avoider #30

"Nice appearance"

submission: Mouse Avoider #30
date: February 10, 2008

One of the better mouse avoiders in terms of appearance. It's tough, which is good. But I think you need to add something extra to this that sets it apart from the other games like this. I like playing games that have a uniqueness about them. It'd be cool if you had something in this game that made it more interesting. Maybe have the leves as unlockables, and maybe integrate a bit of a puzzle theme into it. I don't know, just diversify it. Maybe also, you could make the levels less dark, the black gets a bit much after a while, and maybe have different backgrounds to choose from. If you can manage to package it right, you'll have a game that people will want to play through a few times. But as it is now, it shows that you've mastered the basic mouse avoider. Move onwards and upwards.

Good job.

Droids Vs Aliens

"It's nothing spectacular"

submission: Droids Vs Aliens
date: February 7, 2008

But it's decent. The camera quality was poor though. A clearer image would make this a lot better. Also, maybe work for a longer movie with a bit more of a plot, it just looked like a random skirmish with lego characters...

But it's stop motion, so you automatically get extra points for that. Nice try.

Author's Response:

If I had to re-do part of it, I would have made the camera on a better setting. Perhaps on a low light filter, that way the image would have been much brighter.

Windows Errors 2007

"Not much of a flash..."

date: February 7, 2008

I don't really enjoy this sort of thing. As far as I know you just grabbed a bunch of "funny" error messages off a website, and there are some much better windows parodies out there, that have some more originality to them. The presentation is poor. A couple of buttons, forward and back? That means it's just a slideshow! You could have at least made the actual error messages into buttons. You could have done a ton of stuff to make this better, have an on/off button for the music, have more than one song to choose from. Have a proper background, make the buttons more aesthetic, make it more interactive. Make it something you can be proud of, use your own jokes, the different versions of windows error messages makes it look even more mediochre. I hope you try harder and put much more effort into your next flash. It's nothing personal, it's just that anyone could string together a flash like this in half an hour, without any real knowledge of flash beforehand.

Sorry =/

I know what you mean....... Well, just for your knowing, this is one of my first flashes. The error messages are generated using: atom.smasher.org

Many of them are classics. I'll might make a error game in Errors 2008, in which errors respond, but the slide show will still be there, but with windows (ok, depends on OS, the 08 edition will have many different OSs) background and that stuff. I'll make a sound on off button, and try to have more of my own ideas. Still, pretty many here was my own ideas, maybe someone else have got the same idea but, well......

Thanks for your review anyway!

Inward Singing

"This was a great flash"

submission: Inward Singing
date: February 7, 2008

Graphics were great, theway you constructed the scene around the conversation. 1 isseu I had was where you changed their appearance, they had no noses, and then a moment later, they did! It'd be better if you kept it all in one style. But other than that, it was awesome, great to watch, funny, too!

Good job.

Darfur Satire Shorts

"High quality animation"

date: February 4, 2008

The plots were also very well laid out. You did a brilliant job of emulating south park and transformers. The jokes were funny, and it's great that you're backing your animation with not-so-subliminal messages. Good job. 10/10. 5/5. I don't have any suggestions for improvement, except perhaps that after the south park short, it goes back to the menu instead of flowing straight into the transformers short.

Cheers.

Sand

"Nice idea"

submission: Sand
date: February 4, 2008

The execution of the idea could have been better, though.
It's too short to develop much interesting happenings. The FBF drawing could be better, it needs to have more artistic flare, if you know what I mean. It'd be great if you could animate the wave FBF, to give it a more fluent and natural motion, although I imagine it would be tricky to pull that off well, the wave, as you have it now requires a more natural edge to it, it doesn't really flow like a wave should. I did like the concept, it's interesting, kind of reminds me of the "Pass my flash" collab. I think if you could get that sort of vibe with the animation, it'd be more appealing.
Nice start, I'd like to see this idea developed further, though.

BlueHippo's a BBS mod! :0

"Pretty funny"

date: February 4, 2008

Lol @ ban message. So you got yourself banned, got your ban lifted and got BlueHippo to voice act, just so you could make a joke about your head exploding and the possibility of a de-modding... nice. Although it is entertaining, it's short and quite crude (animation-wise) so if you keep this style up, you'll entertain me, but you probably won't get a 10 from me. But that's not a bad thing.
Nice setup.
