smulse's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[I've Got A Sausage!]

Haha

That was pretty good. Funny song, decent art and lmao at the ending. Brilliant work.

[Mountain]

Great first movie

That was a really decent submission, you spent time on it and it paid off. Smooth animation and a really decent style. It made me laugh when that guy fell down and landed in the water (I don't know I guess I'm just sick like that) but yeah it was pretty decent! I'd love to see the more developed version in the future. Nice work.

[Duplikat! (1of9)]

Great

That was so funny at the end, I wasn't really expecting it. Nice work! Good animation, style and the sound was noticeable without taking anything away from the Flash. Really good!

[Socklops]

David Firth...

...you never cease to amaze me. Pure brilliant.

[Failed Containment]

Stunning

This is so underrated it's unbelievable. That was a great flash! I read some of the other reviews, and it seems a lot of people didn't like the small thin stage size, but I did. I thought it was clever, and I liked it when everything was zooming in and out. It felt more action packed, and more entertaining than other stick movies because of this. It was brilliant! The sound was nice, didn't take anything away from the movie and was a pretty good song.

Overall a decent flash, so underrated, well done on the front page!

[ASCII Animation]

Good

It was pretty good. Interesting style of animation. I've seen text used for animations before, but nothing like that. I'd like to see something longer, and maybe if you used the letters as pixels and changed them, rather than having layered text... idk. Experiment. It was pretty good though, nice work overall.

Thanks for the comments, your reviews and comments make me feel all happy inside.

[DERAILED]

Great flash!

That was so funny. The guy trying to scoop his innards back in was hilarious! That was a really good flash, made me laugh! Nice animation, decent style, sound was funny in places and fit perfectly! Good work man.

[Jigsaw's Xmas Special!]

Sweet

That was really good. A great addition to the series, and really funny! Nice work, really good style!

[Train Game Simulation 2]

It can only improve

You said: Fact 1: If you think I'm a crappy artist, check out my previous submissions. They were 2nd place to review crew and underdog (dang!).

Yeah after looking at that I do think your a crappy artist, and I'm sorry my friend but that's only why I gave you a 2. The train track wasn't too bad, but that thing gliding around the track was nothing like a train. There were also no carriages or background. You said look at your other submissions, well to be honest, I'm not giving this a better rating on graphics because of your other submissions, my review is bases soley on this.

You said: Fact 2: I have a GOLD whistle. If you write some crap review, I'll have it removed before you can vote on this movie.

If people give you a crap review, get over it. There are a load of people who want to put your work down, but that doesn't mean you should get rid of the review. The reviews are there for people to show their thoughts on the submission whether they liked it or not, so what's the point of removing any? It's unfair on the person that wrote it.

The game idea looked interesting, answering questions to change the course of the train, it seemed like a good idea. The gameplay was okay, but I think you should make it more obvious that there is a time limit for you to choose an answer. The graphics can be improved alot, and I think they need to be, but this isn't the final version so it's okay they're not perfect, but they're really quite far from being stunning at the moment.

I look forward to seeing the modified/final version in the portal in January if you release it then. This is the start of what could be a good game, and I'm sure it will only improve, but please next time don't try to put people off saying what they wan't to about your submission. Criticism is important, you won't improve if you don't get any.

This flash is a good start, I don't know if it'll get past judgement, but it doesn't need to. I hope this helped, a few things need improving and then it's all gravy! :)

Good luck

highwatermark responds:

Well thanks!

I don't want people to give me better scores when they look at my previous submissions; I just don't want them to say stuff like "go kill yourself" or "never do flash again".

I'm getting a LOT of good criticism now (not crappy ones). These are GOOD. the ones I don't want are like "BLAM" or "Shite" and stuff like that. This is a good review.

And yes, i'll do that.

Hey, if you have the time to write such a long review, maybe you can help me:

I'm doing this at 80 FPS already, but the counting's always slower than it should be (that's at 60frames = 1 second). Any recommendations? Please PM me if you can think of something (I can make the timing shorter, but won't that affect some fast-computer people in a negative way?)

I look forward to a PM.

HAHA

That was well funny, especially when the snowman picked them both up and was running around with them. Good flash, made me laugh... now though, back to trying to learn Ruby.
Thanks for the entertaining break though :)
