"First Flash, you say?"

submission: Sonic In Angel Island

date: July 4, 2008

Damn, if this is the first Flash you've ever made... Whoa. I've seen a hundred "first Flashes" here, but this has to be one of the best.

Of course, it was your first, so it was imperfect in some ways (missing a lot of elements of the usual Sonic games, such as music, a lot of sound effects, Rings, a life counter, Game Over, etc.), but by the looks of it, it was a version 0.5, which usually means a demo. I'd love to see a completed version of this when you've improved a bit.
4/5, 7/10.

"Needs a lot of work."

submission: Wegra Adventure 3

date: June 24, 2008

I don't know if there's really anything positive I can say about this submission. It looked like a bunch of low-quality .jpg files thrown together without so much as a motion tween, the Speakonia voice was quite hard to understand due to an excessively low pitch (try using a different voice, maybe something like "Adult Male #1, American English" at a medium pitch and speed: it would make it more understandable), the sound didn't sync up well with the graphics near the end, it needlessly brought out overused 4chan memes, and it lacked any sort of cohesive storyline whatsoever. I'm assuming that you were making an attempt at random humor here, however it's just not funny. I strongly suggest that, before submitting another movie of this sort, you improve both your Flash and writing skills.

"As always, it was good."

submission: Bahamut's Fav. Reviews

date: June 10, 2008

I remember watching a 2002 submission where a Flash author of the early days of NG compiled his favorite reviews and what he would have responded to them. All of the reviews in that movie except maybe one were abusive, so at the very least this Flash shows how much more civilized NG has become since 2002, which from most viewpoints can be considered a good thing. But onto the movie itself!

As always, Bahamut, you've managed to put together a pretty good Flash movie. I (kinda) know 6 out of the 7 "featured" reviewers (even had RupeeClock on my Favorite Artists list at one point), and in fact many of the reviewers from the Bonus Section (including myself)... Does that mean I spend too much time here? Nonetheless, the reviews and your reactions to them were rather interesting. And I can't take points off for Speakonia usage because there was the option to skip that (and also because you didn't use the high-pitched, high-speed Speakonia voice that makes my ears bleed), a feature that I really liked, seeing as how Speakonia gets boring fast. Therefore, as usual...

"Got a nice beat..."

submission: Sp1r1T - d[+_+]b - Last Night

date: May 19, 2008

...and you can dance to it. With trance music, that's one of the best things that can be said. And it's certainly better than the shit rap music they play at all the school dances nowadays, another definite plus for this song. Loses a review point for being over-repetitive, and another for not really getting to the good part until the last 40 seconds or so, so you should certainly work on them in future songs, but overall it's still not bad.

"Not too shabby..."

submission: Flatline?

date: May 12, 2008

Not too shabby at all. You certainly named it correctly: the "flatline" sound can be heard throughout this song, and in fact makes up the backbone of the song. The limits of this backbone, only a few possible "flatline" tones and such, make it hard to achieve much internal variation within the melody, but that's certainly not much of a problem. So overall it's not that bad a song, though by being limited in scope it loses a point.

"cr0mZX cr0mZX... You know the drill."

submission: Sonic 3 - cr0m Gadget (8bit)

date: April 25, 2008

It's been a while since I've played Sonic 3, so I wouldn't quite remember this song, and the low-bit status really doesn't help me to remember it. However, I've gotta give you some credit: first of all, while it's not the best 8-bit song I've heard, it sure as hell isn't the worst. And second, how could I downvote anything that does homage to cr0m, even if only in the title? He's a legend, and from what little experience I have with him not that bad a guy. So overall I guess it's not all that bad, though you may need to make the beat a bit stronger and make it a little more faithful to the original.
4/5, 7/10.
