"Oh no."

submission: Gein kills the kk

date: September 10, 2008

Hm, looks like another movie that I'm not going to review in my usual format. I personally like live action film mixed with animation. I know there isn't anything that you could do about the quality of the film, since I also have some live action movies on newgrounds and the quality of the film is bad no matter what you do to it. The timing of the gun going off and the blood coming out of the kitty krew cat was nicely timed, but it did take you way too long to get the gun ready and actually shoot the cat. Something that I think you could of added to make this get a better score would be to add a scrolling story line before the actual execution with a voice over. At the end you should of also faded our or cut it in some way so it wasn't as sudden of an ending. A fade out would of been the best probably because cutting it would of probably made it abrupt. After the fade out perhaps some credits would of been nice. Also, too bad you couldn't of added some voices to the movie, but as you said your camera couldn't pick up sound. Maybe some background music would of worked better in that case.

"Nice job."

submission: The Dropping Egg Collab

date: September 10, 2008

Animation/Graphics - Everyone did a great job at drawing their eggs. (That almost makes me sound like I'm talking to a little kid at easter time >.<) Also, the animation was very smooth and I couldn't find anything particularly wrong with it at all. Colors and backgrounds were also nicely done.

Story - A original idea, but I think it needs to be executed just a bit better to be considered a great idea. There could of been several other scenes that could of been added and I do think that the flash itself was lacking in humor. While that brought your score down a lot on my review your Easter Egg brought it back up. I couldn't believe that I couldn't find it the first time through, but the hint at the end was so completely obvious, since you literally spelled it right out, that I of course found it the second time through. I promise to come back and play the game part of it whenever I have a proper mouse, but I currently have a laptop with one of those built in mouses, which makes the keep the object up games rather difficult to play. I did get the first little badge though just with the built in mouse.

Audio - What better audio to use then the chicken dance song, lmao. I do think that you could of added more sound effects though. Like when the egg had a face and was screaming you should of had a voice over of someone screaming, etc.. Stuff like that would of really helped the score of your flash.

Overall - You guys did a good job, but I do think that it needs a bit more humor and maybe some sound effects. I think if you do that then you will get a much better score the next time around.

"Ha, gave me a little laugh."

submission: A new clock!

date: September 10, 2008

What a 8/10? How is that possible? Oh yeah, it's a clock day flash! Free high scores and 5 to go around right? Haha.

Animation - It's not spam like most clock day submissions. It has a hell of a lot better animation then any of my clock day flashes also. On a regular submission though I wouldn't be so happy about the animation for one reason. It's very simple. yes everything was smooth and I didn't really see any glitches, but it wasn't absolutely fun to watch or anything.

Story - A clock day submission with a plot? Amazing! Ha, I have to admit that I didn't think it was going to be too great. Even when the weight fell on him I was thinking that it wasn't going to be any good, but with that last message and when I put two and two together with the title of the submission it gave me a nice small laugh. Great simple humor in my opinion so great job here. Maybe work on getting just a tad bit better background in your future submissions. That would probably help a little.

Audio - The sound effects went well with the submission, but I think you could of maybe added some nice background music. That would of probably helped the score of your flash by just a little.

Overall - A mediocre flash at best, but it is a clock day submission and just like any other clock day submission should be treated with respect, of course unless it breaks some sort of rules. And of course this is only my personal opinion on the matter. Should we expect future clock day submissions from you?

"Hmm."

submission: Ode to Elevator Music

date: September 10, 2008

You gave me a challenge here.. this is kind of hard for one reason. Because I don't really think something like this should of been submitted to be honest, but of course that is my opinion and as long as the flash doesn't break any rules then it's up to you if you want to submit it or not.

Animation/Graphics - I really can't give you anything here so I'm sorry about that. You did have just a bit of animation with the switching of the words and they weren't too fast or too slow in my opinion so you do get a point from me there. Also, the text in the flash was easy to read and was well organized so you get another point from me.

Story - The story.. well I have to admit that the story in your author comments was really good and would make a great flash animation in the way that you explained it. You receive another point for having a great description of what you are suppose to be thinking about. Other then that there wasn't too much in the flash at all. I did think that the red letters were going to spell something out like the others did so I guess that was just a tad bit confusing, but it was nice to add some variation instead of the same black letters.

Audio - Decent audio, which of course goes along with the subject since it is elevator music that you used so you get the last point from me from there.

Overall - My opinion is that I don't think it should be on newgrounds, but like I said before my opinion is my opinion not yours so it doesn't really matter. It was very simple and I had to review it a little differently because of that. Usually I don't just give out points for things that were done well like I did in this review, usually I just say what should be fixed and what could of been done better, but I honestly couldn't think of anything in this situation.

"I was impressed."

submission: Newgrounds Intro Collab

date: September 10, 2008

Animation/Graphics - Very good for the most part. Some were very simple, but most of them were well done. I didn't really notice any glitches in any of them or anything. For the most part they all ran pretty smoothly. Some were animated a lot better then others, but your going to run into that in collabs obviously. Some of the ones I felt may have had drawings and graphics just a tad bit too simple. Overall though the animation and graphics were good.

Story - I never thought of anything like this before. A very original idea in my opinion. Not only was this fun to watch, but it's also very useful to some people since you included the download button. Buttons done well and all of the text was in order and neat. I do think next time around you should try to get some funnier ones in there. Great job though.

Audio - All of the sounds effects and voices were good and the audio that you chose for the flash worked well also. Nothing much more to say about that.

Overall - A very good idea, which could be done many times and would still probably be fun to watch and helpful to people at the same time. Great submission.

"OMG THAT TOOK FOREVER!"

submission: Clyde's Revenge!

date: September 9, 2008

Ha, it really took forever to beat. Once I got to the size where you couldn't lose there wasn't anything else to do, but sit there and wait.

Animation/Graphics - Decent, the beginning really reminded me of the old pacman games for the atari. Were they just sprites or were they your own drawings? Either way still good. The animation was smooth and the background was fine. I did think that maybe the ghost took a little too long to get started or change direction, but I eventually got use to it. I did notice that you could eat things that were bigger then you and sometimes it would glitch and I could eat things A LOT bigger then me. Also, sometimes it would eat me and I wouldn't be anywhere close to one of the pacmen.

Story - I liked it personally. I thought that it was a pretty original idea in the sense of characters, but obviously the type of game has been done sever times. Again, the whole character thing made it interesting enough to play. I played on both hard and easy and didn't find hard too much harder then easier was. I did play to the end, which took a hell of a lot of time because after you got to a certain size you couldn't move or anything so I just stood there in the corner and waited it out. I had enough time to make a couple of posts and go to the bathroom, etc.. So that means the time for that really needs to be brought down. I was really hoping for a pause button. :(

Audio - That was pretty cool that you had several audio choices to choose from. At first I thought the audio selected depended on how hard the game was, but after playing for a little bit I realized that this wasn't true. Also, if you play for too long the audio eventually stops playing. At least it did for me, but that my have just been a weird glitch that just happened to happen for some reason.

Overall - A decent game, but does need just a tad bit of work in the means of sensibility of being eaten or ate yourself. Keep up the good work.

"Well."

submission: [LoD]

date: September 9, 2008

I've been getting abusive reviews from this for several days so I thought that it may be about time that I repay you by dropping by with a review. I don't review turd of the weeks like I do normal flashes, but that would be because they aren't "normal".

A nice little message saying, "Fuck You", all of the way across the screen. Very important to add messages like this so the kids get upset and massive down vote your movie BECAUSE IT SWORE AT THEM OH NO. Flashing lights, which are also very important to piss people off. Lastly, a completely random picture, with related audio to complete the process of a great spam submission. There isn't anything racist or hateful about the flash so it doesn't break any rules or anything else. As far as spam goes this is a great submission. The score I would of gave you if this was a serious submission, 0/5 and a 1/10, but since it's not and you were obviously trying to turd of the week I gave it a 0/5 (That's what you wanted anyway) and a 7/10. Now I wait to get my review marked useless because people can't take a joke.

"Decent."

submission: GTFTN1 - Scanlines

date: September 9, 2008

Animation/Graphics - Very simple, but you did have some actual animation in your tutorial when the text was kind of typed out in the very beginning. There wasn't any more animation after that though. The colors were good not only because they went well together, but also because the combination of colors made it very easy to read the text. Other then that there isn't anything else to comment on.

Story - The information was very good, but I still probably couldn't and won't use it myself, so it wasn't personally helpful. I'm assuming for people who use photoshop received some good information and hopefully it helped them. The text was organized well and the size was great to read. The pictures in your examples were of good quality and helped people who needed to see it be done visually.

Audio - Well, I see in your author comments that you were having trouble with the audio. I can't help you personally with that, but I'm sure if you have any flash questions then they would be able to answer it in the flash portal. This may be an audio problem, but I think it's more of a flash related problem. Things that could of been done if you weren't having problems could of been stuff like a simple background song, or maybe a selection of songs to use. You could go into even more detail like adding sound effects to when you click on the next or back button. I think that it would of been pretty cool if there was a typing sound effect, like a typewriter in the beginning when the text appeared across the screen.

Overall - A good tutorial, which I wouldn't be able to use myself, but hopefully others can. I hope you fix your audio problems and good luck on any future submissions.

"Very good."

submission: Dress Our King!

date: September 9, 2008

Honestly one of the better dress up games that I have seen. A couple of things that could of been improved on probably, but I will try to address those opinions in my review.

Animation/Graphics - All of the pictures were great and all of the backgrounds were fine. I found that the colors were all great also. I noticed you did have a little bit of animation, but I really like it when dress up games have items and other animation. I think that if you would of had a couple more pieces animated that it would of helped your score and your rating here just a little bit.

Story - You had a lot of stuff to choose from. 231 as you state in your author comments, but I didn't count them so I'm just going to trust you on this. You also had a lot of backgrounds, but I wasn't too impressed with the backgrounds to be honest. The first couple were nice, but after that they were just colors. I think that if you would of had more backgrounds with things in the backgrounds then it would of also helped your rating and score. I think a background that had a clock army in the background or something like that would of been pretty cool.

Audio - All of the audio was perfectly fine. Great job here. You always see those dress up games that only have one song too choose from, but you managed to get 8 songs on here without really making the file size too big. Good job everywhere here.

Overall - A great dress up game. A couple of things could of been done to improve it, but other then that it was better then most. Also, congrats on getting your game into the Clock Day 2008 collection.

"Hmm"

submission: How to get Deity

date: September 3, 2008

Not bad. Overdone though. Hell I've helped make two of them myself as you know and I've seen about 5 or so of these done on newgrounds.

Animation/Graphics - The text was easy to read and the colors were user friendly. I think that you hit everything here pretty well. The only thing that I can think about is a couple of times I saw typos or places where the words and text didn't line up the best.

Story - The information itself was pretty good, but you really didn't cover everything. You want to try and cover everything when making a flash about abusive reviews because leaving just one thing out could make people lose their whistle status or miss out on some things.

Audio - The audio was a nice selection. I was hoping for maybe a menu with a couple of selections to choose from though. And maybe a mute button. If there was one sorry, but I didn't notice it.

Overall, the more of these out there the better in my opinion because the more people will learn.

* Side note - Do people find this review as helpful, useless, or abusive?
