At first I didn't believe that this was 30 minutes long, mainly because of the file size, you did a great job optimizing the sounds. The graphics aren't great, but thats not really that important, it doesn't have to have great graphics to be a brilliant move. The best attribute of the move has to be the voice overs, there so witty and funny, the two guys in the chairs were a great laugh. The flash is also really quite imaginative and it is clear that this took a long time to make. The thing that annoys me is that when this was first submitted, people will have voted low because of the graphics, but if most people watched most of the movie they would have realised that it is worth a much better mark and I'm glad that this has been voted up now to a score it deserves.

WOW! Its such an awesome game! It is very difficult though, I had to get a walk through for a couple of the levels. The graphics were great and the sounds were awesome as well, I love the sound of the dart hitting the balloons. Oh yeah, the pac-man bits were great as well!

This is very similar to the Winter bells game only with a squirrel and clouds and acorns. I think that the game is quite fun and some the of the graphics are OK but it is not an original idea.

You make some excellent points there DrClay, its true, art collabs are being neglected and abandoned all of the time. This flash will definitively spread the awareness of whats going on in the art forum and make collabs more reliable. Thank you for making this flash, it will surely benefit loads of artists.
By the Way, I thought that the text animation was pretty good and some of the effects you used there were great!

One of the most wonderful animations I've seen. The graphics were very simple, yet so effective. I loved the little details as well, the way the box swayed to the side when it was brought down to the ground and the brilliant running animations. The style was excellent, I love the drawing style in this on. Some fabulous FBF animation in there as well, I 'm sure it must be so difficult animating a dog as well as a human. Plus the music, I don't think there is a better bit of music to go with this animation piece, it fit like a glove, I didn't know Aphex Twin did classical pieces. Plus it did make me feel very sad, it also made me think about a lot of over things when watching this, not just about dying pets.

I think this is a really nice piece of flash, The graphics were lovely, the animation was well thought out and mostly FBF (+1 cool point xD) and there was something about it which made me feel kind of happy but at the the same time I felt sorry for the birdman character. I like the whole setting of the clouds and the room, it was really experimental. Oh yeah and the music really fit the flash's theme as well, awesome job mate, keep it up :D

I can't tell you how happy I am that you managed to empathise/feel emotion due to my animation - really, you can't pay much more of a compliment than that! I'm also chuffed that you got not just one feeling, but two out of it! Ambiguity does work!
Thanks very much for your review, it's great to hear stuff like this about one's work :D

WOW! This an amazing gadget/rhythm submission. The game is so complex, having a sever, a very own PORTAL (I was very impressed when I saw that), a search engine, comments etc. The music it self was very interesting, the layout is quite similar to a Dance Ejay style music creator which is good. I still havn't figured out the best combination of beats yet, I tried a random sprinkling at first and that seemed to work pretty well, scoring 7 in the portal at the moment. Then I tried to do a planned selection of beats and that worked OK. I think you've got an awesome portal submission here, you should be very proud of yourselves for making this, definetly Front page material!!

It was a great stick movie, the animation was really smooth (must have been quite a high frame rate) and the sound effects worked really well. The objects were also drawn well and I liked the bullet hole effects.
There are 2 main problems with this flash, however:
1). The white bars on the screen keep getting obstructed by bits of stick man, but this can be easily fixed by putting the white bars on the top layer.
2). I would strongly suggest that you change the age rating on this submission. This flash contains frequent violence worth a 13+ or even a 17+ age rating, yet you've got a "suitable for all" age rating on it.

This was a pretty fun version of the original, I like the power ups and I actually quite liked the way you could move all around the screen, not just confined to a certain area. The art work was also pretty good and very authentic. Unfortunately you will most likely loose marks for it not being a very original concept. Anyway, I enjoyed playing this crazy game, good job.

Woah, that was a bit crazy!
Firstly I liked the way you edited the background so that you could make some of the monsters appear behind hills and things, that was an interesting effect. The monsters themselves were great, they were really colourful and there was some crazy FBF animation going on there.
The only bad side to the animation was really just the fact that it was quite short. It actually reminded me of one of those little animations they put on MTV in between advert breaks.
