[SMW: Parodies]

Good flash, lots o' laughs.

I have to admit, this is one of the few good Mario parodies here on NG. Most of the crappy ones abuse the sprites, but I believe that you took them to another level. The graphics were fair enough, though I think the originality was your best area. I liked how you used the information blocks as a stereo. Anyhoo, maybe the humor needs fresh ideas, but I definetly say that your flash is a keeper. Nice one!

[Mario Saves the Day!]

Good, with potential, but it can be better.

First of all, you've got a good idea to work with. The dialogues were really funny and the fight scene was good enough, even the one where Mario takes out the bazooka. However, I feel that the beginning is a bit slow. I lost ethusiasm right there, but then the fight scene perks it up. Perhaps some other sound effects or some spoken dialogue might help the first part.

Finally, the ending seems inconclusive. Maybe next time you could add a hint of what Bowser's gonna do with the princess, ya know. Save a good joke for the end. Anyway, I see a lot of potential in your animation and the story, you just gotta keep the timeline "moving". Congrats, and keep at it!

Thanks, i'll work on makeing a good script next time

[Link-et?!]

Very original concept!!!

Gotta admit, that was a very original flash there. I liked the new twist, however, I felt it was too short. This idea has a lot of potential, so it should not end here. Personally, I would consider adding more character movements, and perhaps, another character. Aside from all that, I thought it showed quality. Keep it up!

[Zelda: UO Epis:1]

Hoho! Excellent, my friend!

First of all, I would like to say that the characters look awesome! You gave them a touch-up not far from the original thing and made them kick-ass. The "running" sounds at the beginning were also out of this world. Humor was pretty good. However, I felt it a bit short. I mean, it creates a lot of expectation, but ends suddenly. I am aware that there's a part 2, but I feel you create an unnecesary gap in the action line. Maybe you had trouble in the file size or something. Aside from that, I think this has frontpage quality. Congrats, and keep it up!

[Star Wars: Old Wounds]

Simply awesome...

Excellent animation. I really liked the way you built a brand new scene that fits in the story. Darth Maul really looked kick-ass! Besides, I really enjoyed how you used the widescreen format. I hope you continue to make other Star Wars shorts like this one. I really do, dude. Kudos!

[Phobe: The Teaser]

Cool teaser

Damn, that was a good teaser. A bit short for my taste, but I guess I'll have to wait for the first chapter. Looks pretty good, graphics look great, and your audio adds that kick-ass effect. Looking forward to the real thing.

[TENTH ARMY 3]

Pretty good...

That was a great flash. It's a shame you didn't add music to it. Thus, the animation could not develop a mood. If it weren't for that, this would have earned a higher score. Your style is pretty good, just watch out for these little details. Nice job.

yeah everyone says that but see our second movie it had music and first one 2

[snow football]

Nice Graphics!!!

Excellent graphics!!! If this is really your first flash, you're pretty damn good. Just one thing. Next time try to add some sounds or a background music. When there's no audio, it really hurts the animation, since you don't create a mood for the viewer. Besides that, I don't see any obstacles for you to get a good score.

[The People's Mario]

Communist Mario!!! LMAO!!!!

Nice flash. I really liked the badass socialist Mario. What were the Goombas supposed to be? Capitalists? :)
Also the Russian choir added that much needed spooky element from the USSR. Although it would have been awesome to see Mario with the other communist symbol, ya know? The other blade thingy...

Anyhoo, move over Lenin and Stalin, there's a new comrade on the Red Square!

Excellent job.
