needs work
I just wasn't really digging the whole style, it seems quite messy. I think you just need to work on your drawing style, animation and writing. This is not too bad for a few hours but I would get more practice in Flash before attempting another one of these. Good luck dude :)
I've been told I have a very unique drawing style. Some people like it, some people completely hate it. I was never much of a drawing person though, so that's kept my art style somewhat simple and cartoonish. I dunno about more practice with Flash though, I've already had like 3 years of practice, and if what you say is true, then it obviously hasn't been very helpful xD. I will be attempting to make more animations though, don't worry!
Best of?
For a 'best of' flash it's certainly not very impressive at all. Its confusing and not too enjoyable to watch. Although I must admit that some of the sonic stuff was pretty funny :)
But yeah, I've watched some of your flashes and they all seem to be the same thing...traced and 'borrowed' graphics with strange audio and relentless inside jokes. I really think you should just quit the spam flashes and try and make a proper animation feature, I would be interested to see what you could produce.
I stopped two years after you reviewed this. ;)
where's the animation?
This is really something you should put on a blog if you really want to tell people about it. I mean why do you feel the need to try and show people your PM's in the first place? They're called private messages for a reason...Anyway, there was practically no animation what so ever and you hardly did any of the artwork either. The sprite dragon thing isn't yours and the mouse and other various objects are obviously traced.
Please in future if you're going to submit flashes maybe try some frame by frame of at least work on your tweening animation skills. Hope this review has helped.
"I mean why do you feel the need to try and show people your PM's in the first place"
For laughs at the time I worked on it but honestly, I don't care about it anymore.
not good
Pretty much all the parts were obviously traced from videos and the ones which weren't were not well animated. It was alright to watch though.
Most parkour animations are traced, but yes the one that I had created without tracing was not much chop.
One of the best flashes on NG!
Wow! This flash is amazing in quality and it is obvious that you have spent a great deal of time on it. From the very beginning I could tell that it was going to be a fantastic flash. The use of the dynamic camera angles, the continuity editing between certain scenes and the shear complexity of it gives it the edge over most other flashes on the site. One of my favourite things about the flash was that the different scenes reminded me of so many other things. The scene where the train enters the snowy world reminded me of the Xombie series for it's atmospheric values and the interior scenes in the snow area reminded me of certain levels from Halo 3.
The complexity of the characters, plot and settings you created reminded me of Mass Effect and this has to be the main thing I would draw comparison to. I thought that the use of 3D was a great choice and fit in well with most of the scenes (Swift 3D I'm assuming). I don't usually watch long flashes on NG as very few can hold up over it's length of time, but this one is definitely an exception. It is a shame that the score of this submission isn't higher, the sad thing is that a lot of people won't watch the whole flash and will therefore rate it without experiencing the full quality of it.
I have little criticism to express about this flash but I do have a couple of things to point out. I think that in some parts the voice acting is a little off and is a little hard to understand. That isn't necessarily your fault but maybe subtitles would have been a good idea. One other thing is that although as a whole the artwork was excellent, there would certain parts where the characters looked a little rough but really that wasn't much of an issue.
Anyway, brilliant flash I thoroughly enjoyed watching it and all that's left for me to say is please make part 2!
I'm glad you enjoyed the flash, and thank you for watching it the whole way through. Sadly, interesting though they seem, I haven't seen Zombie, and haven't played Halo or Mass Effect, though Mass Effect in particular certainly looked interesting to me.
I was indeed using swift 3D and I continue to be impressed by how little you guys mind my lack of 3D skill. I certainly hope to improve, should I ever be so fortunate as to find some classes to take, but I'm glad you thought well of them.
Indeed I would LOVE to have some subs and so as I've mentioned before IF ANYONE CAN CODE ACTIVATABLE SUBTITLES PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I don't have that sort of coding skill and I find the sort where you just hover your cursor over the bottom of the screen to be very amateur. If I have the good fortune to find out how to do decent subs, I will upload a new version of the video and if you want, I can let you know. I thought there were some good performances on the part of my actors and a few lacking, in acting and quality; overall I still think they did a good job. Character roughness was definately something I needed work on.
Thank you for reviewing, and please have patience; part 2 will be made eventually and I can only hope it will rise to your expectations.
Poor
I'm not really sure what was going on in this collab. The first part consisted of a hamster in someone's pocket holding a banana or something. This was not a great star as it left me quite bewildered. I get that the point of the collab was to include the hamster thing in all on the parts and carry it on but in some parts the translation of the hamster between different styles was so different that it lacked continuity and just became very confusing.
The artwork was generally quite poor with some exceptions and definitely should have been touched up a but, this did give an overall feel hat the collab had been rushed. Anyway, it was interesting put I was not very impressed and I don't think it was worthy of a daily 3rd.
P.s. Stop reviewing your own collab guys, lol.
The point was simply to continue where the last author left off, the hamster just ended up being in all of them. The transitioning of styles was more to add artistic diversity, so the lack of visual continuity was intended.
I'm sorry you didn't fully enjoy it, but thank you for your comments and criticisms!
Oh my goodness!
This should get frontpaged immediately it is actually fantastic! Also, 3.39?? Pshhh. More like 4.00+ hopefully the score will rise before the end of today!
YEAH! I mean it has Tom in it...that deserve front page alone right ?...right ?
Really, really good!
The animation was smooth and consistent throughout resulting in a very satisfying watch! You should do cartoons for TV and stuff, man!
oh no, i not wanna make animatinos how a slave
Awesome
I really liked the whole crinkled paper style you had going on here, it works well with the whole Christmas theme!
preciate it nick. can i call you nick. i like nick. anyway thanx:)
AWESOME!!
Man, how did I miss this coming through the portal?! Anyway, I loved this, I especially liked the new intro you have -very retro and stylish- I loved the menu screen and also I loved the whole concept and animation of the main plot line.
Actually, when I first saw this when you showed me the preview about a month ago and when I was watching it now, I thought to myself how much you've improved with you're animation and art. This sort of stuff could get on TV no probs and I'm not just saying that.
Awesome job as always morrow!
ooh you liked the TUCKER thing! I'm glad you liked it. I'm happy with it too. TV? lol, you're so nice nick :)
talk to you soon, we've got to get some stuff going. :D
