[psychedelic anti-drug PSA]

Anti-drug?

I guess this was supposed to be ironic, but I really didn't enjoy it at all. It just seemed to be unsatisfying with how it was just you talking with this weird effect. If it's anti-drug, it doesn't work, because it doesn't make me want to listen to. If it's a parody, it just seems too lazy. You should also try to put a "Play" button on it. Of course, I would be one to tell you how, because I don't know how to do that or really anything else.

The only thing that was cool was that it was pretty creative. Creative effects, however, do not always make something good. I hope this could be used as a way to see how you could improve yourself. Your voice is also a tad annoying, although I guess it was just supposed to be silly or weird, which worked. It also goes on forever.

SamuraiClinton responds:

If there was some software to use other than SUPER(C) where I could just prop a preloader on, I wouldn't have this issue of not having a way to put on a preloader.

[Second Chance]

Could have been better

Congradulations on getting the cartoon used for Robot Day 2011 (the new one at least)! This probably had the best animation of anything I've watched today. The downside was that it really seems like it led to an anti-climax. It just seemed like it was getting so good with putting an emotional side to it. At least the main robot managed to achieve his goal. The lack of dialogue also put a really good artistic tone to this, even if it wasn't that well done.

The coolest part was probably when everything was getting blown up! I didn't understand it, but it was awesome! It makes me wish there had been more of a climax with a big battle. Still, this seems to have the highest score for anything on Robot Day and I think it will win Daily Feature! And who says robots can't feel emotion?

hrechkaness responds:

Thank You for the honest review! I would have liked to expand more on the story but I ran out of time if I wanted to get this in for Robot Day. With that said, I am so thankful that this is being so well received. I may expand on this in the future or maybe make pt.2 for next years Robot Day :D Cheers!

[SMRPG Waltz of the Forest]

Who's Geno?

Yep, I knew that you were the guy who made this. The sad thing is that I know next to nothing about Super Mario RPG as it's one of the few Mario games I've never played! The thing is, I am actually not a fan of RPG's, but Mario's my favorite video game series! It really goes to show how many different styles he can use. It was great to see such a wide variety of characters, especially with how you drew them. You have true artistic talent.

The only thing I know about the game is really from the stuff you've made. Everyone looks so three-dimensional in this. The best part is probably when you show off the map of it so you can get a clear picture of what you're dealing with. Psyguy has a very sweet voice in this too. Congradulations on completing college and have a wonderful life!

Kirbopher responds:

Psy never sang in this song.

[Dragonball ZZZ]

Title fits

The weird thing was that this did have some really good parts in it, particularly at the end. A slideshow featuring the DBZ characters is awesome! I guess it was kind of self-depredation because you acknowledged how silly it was. I did think it was insensitive to show pictures of the 911 survivors. Then again, I guess it's going to be ten years since that happened, so maybe time has healed all wounds. It was also hard to understand.

I could tell you used Speakonia for everything. While I should be used to it, it just came off as very unclear in this. I also didn't like it how one of the images was presented in really low resolution. The stuff in the credits had higher resolution, so it seems more like you just didn't care. At least you had an original joke for a name pun.

long review

[Meet'N'Fuck: My ass]

Eh...not good

I thought this was going to be a parody of "Arfenhouse" when I saw the house like that. I now know that's just your author image. Anyway, the coolest thing was how this revelled so much in how ridiculous it was. I thought it was going to be a straight-up parody of the "Meet 'N Fuck" series, but it really wasn't. The funniest thing was probably the sumo black guy. I recall seeing that guy in other places, I had no idea he was that popular.

It still has most of the problems spam flashes do. You should have put in background and a sound. I can't really ask you to improve it much because it wasn't intended to be anything that good. I guess you succeeded in making your submission ironic and having a cult fanbase like the original Clock flashes. Hey, that's my name!

[License to Combo 2]

A barrage indeed!

This was great to watch because you never knew what was going to happen next. The coolest thing was the animation and how amazingly slick everything was. I wasn't expecting there to be any dialogue at all, what a pleasant surprise! Another cool thing was how much I enjoyed it even though I did not see the original. You can simply never go wrong with stick violence. The use of color was flawless in this, everything just jumped out at you so much.

In fact, the only downside was that I wish this could have been longer. All the sound effects are extremely authentic as well. My favorite part is probably the scene where he throws that one guy in the venting shaft and he gets all chopped up. Killing can always be creative. The fast pacedness of it works so well.

Nhazul responds:

Thanks man! I'm glad you enjoyed it, Keep a look out for the next one, it'll come soon :)

[Aura Test(Done in 5 mins)]

Huh?

This did not work out that well because there is so little that happens in this. It's not so much that the sprite work is bad, it's just that it was way too brief. Tests are not the sort of thing that you should submit to this website anyway. Look for personal stuff on the Internet or your website to release this. The sprite work isn't even that impressive. All of the characters are yellow or something and it just looks silly.

The background does make it look unique. The big problem is that it's just the same music over and over. I am not a fan of "Bleach" so I can not recognize this music. The best thing to do is to at least show some action or the enemies in your test. Put a lot more effort into this, and I bet the final product could be much better.

LSWBeast responds:

if ur a fan of dragon ball z u should know whats the videos about!!!!!
and dont worry im making a stroy Ralick Z its going to be neat and awesome for ppl to enjoy

[Bunnykill 5 Part 1]

Unrelated?

Yeah, it's like those cartoons that have nothing to do with each other to a lack of continuity. Basically, these guys can do whatever they want and nothing sticks. This was a really fantastic entry in the series and originally I wasn't that turned on because it seemed to start slow. Boy oh boy, did that get made up for as it got a trillion times cooler as it went on! This is easily the longest thing you have ever worked on, clocking in at about 12 minutes! It makes me want to see a full length movie made by you!

The characters are as awesome as ever. The coolest weapon would have to be the gun that doubles as a sword. The light saber battles are always great to look at and while they are not stronger than swords, at least they are cooler. I like how there's so many things going on. One loose laser sword hits a guy in the head and makes him an even darker color. Don't worry, Snowball should be back eventually.

Mottis responds:

The thing that hit the enemy in the head was actually just an electric stun baton, unlike the swords that the ninjas were using. But yeah :)
thanks.

[Titanic: The Untold Story]

No plot?

It was funny to see Salad Fingers among the vegetable crowd. He would have been too obsessed with the red water to care about fighting. I guess the tomato was struggling with himself because he's not technically a vegetable. Another cool thing was how good the animation was. This is still a billion times more intelligent than those two stupid cartoon movies they made about the Titanic. It's weird how the one guy choked on a potato.

I had idea that scene was when I was supposed to get into it! I love how this is in the informative genre. Finally, something that involves vegetables killing things when it has nothing to do with the Clock Crew! The music was interesting and everything was completely random but that works on this website! Were the couple at the beginning supposed to be Jack and Rose?

Merol responds:

A lot of people consider the tomato a vegetable, but he was struggling with himself because he saw his family die, which is now a bottle of ketchup, that's why he was all traumatized.

Nooo, there were a lot of couples in the Titanic!

THANKS A LOT!
