"Good potential"

submission: UberTube

date: July 22, 2008

This game has great potential, but as with most arcade games it suffers from a goalless syndrome. What am I riding for. The controls are very hard to use for little to know rewards, it would be great if you could put some gun powers in there with enemies or obstacles, coins/trophies etc. and definitely some rest periods shere you needn't think about falling to your doom. Otherwise, the concept is great and I already love the trippy feeling I get from it. Maybe put it an interesting background and make the tiles glow on contact. Good physics tho they take some getting used to. Hopefullly this makes it through.

"1000th review"

submission: There She Is!! step3

date: June 9, 2008

Loved it absolutely. This series is getting to be a little more than first expected which is nice. I loved the pokeball bit.

Score: 8

"hey there's potential"

submission: Keep It Up (v1.0)

date: March 17, 2008

It terms of original concept, this gets pretty high marks, I really think you should take the changing color background idea and advance it, make it more complicated. This could be a killer progression game if you added some cool effects like maybe if you could find someone who could do a fun house mirror sort of thing. There should also be levels. some better graphics to make it your own would be good to insure that no one (including me) steals this idea and runs with it.

Score: 6

"well as you said it's a dress up game"

submission: What an awesome Dress up

date: March 2, 2008

It's okay, at least you settled for drawing your own clothing rather than modding pictures like some of the talentless hacks on this site. But again, when I look at a dress up game, I already know what I'm going to see. There's never really any variation. You don't even have to go as far as Dress My Babe did, you just need to make yourself stand out from the crowd with somthing original. I would've like to see more animated accesories since you did the wings pretty well, and teh backgrounds were a bit boring. But seriously the dress up game really needs something original so that you don't have to worry whether it'll be blammed or not. The only original thing here is the music, not going with the techno, good choice. I like the theme overall.

"I liked it"

submission: Back Shelf Shorts #05

date: March 2, 2008

I liked the twist, but then again there wasn't much to it. Just a quickie i guess.

Score: 8

"Well, its TANKMEN"

submission: TANKMEN .5

date: January 20, 2008

so yeah. Just after sending you a fawning pm about helping me with custom easing on motion tweens... I'm gonna slam you for it! :)

So yeah. I don't think you need to be told again how perfectly your style matches with the mood and setting of newgrounds.

Yep, you and Stamper as the gay lovers of newgrounds really are the reason that makes this site work day in and day out. You can see it in the evolution of the site as the layout pretty much starts to completely base its design on the style of both of you.

You have an amazing ability in working with a limited set of colors that is very artistic, yet also like something you see out of a comic book. And it's always awesome to see you take a step back and do a landscape like the first shot of this. Reminded me a lot of the graphic style of 300. You're also a confident director who's good at timing jokes, and generally executing slightly off beat takes on situations that seem destined for cliche. Lauds!

That said, you do seem to be a one trick pony sort of guy who sacrifices a lot of his animation potential in order to dish out a TANKMEN regularly. I am by no means trying to say you should quit with TANKMEN, since it's a staple of the this Newgrounds Renaissance we are currently in, but I'm saying perhaps take up an individual project that would really challenge (If you're a challenge kind of guy) your ability especially in fbf. Find a good situation where it can be easy to avoid tweens. I think you're kind of like the John Singer Sargent of Newgrounds. Currently just a novelty of realism with great potential for experimentation.

"Absolute blast"

submission: Super Problem Collab

date: November 23, 2007

I already gave my props to funguy for this, but all of you did outstanding work for you parts and for the most part I was completely into it. Here's a breakdown:

Intro: fine intro in my opinion
Flash: Wow nice artwork, I also like a lot of the backgrounds and change in styles. Very good start to the collab.
Catwoman: Very witty.
Spiderman (pt 1-3): My favorite one (besides ChubbtheHippo's of course) Mix of a witty concept (what can a spider do without a surface, haha brilliant) and good art concept.
Ironman: Epic yet simple.
Hawkwoman: nice art.
Galactus: Almost two quick, the voices could've used work but I love the facial expressions.
Collosus: My least favorite of the bunch, but it was stil fun to watch.
Human Torch: very true.

nice work.

"From Preloader to Last Credit"

submission: Waterlollies

date: November 6, 2007

Last year I taught 8 students who had never learned flash before, just how amazing and multi-faceted the program was. Wanting to show flash at its finest I showed them The YuYu. They were literally taken aback, making comments that I'm sure you've heard so many times before, "wow look at the shading, the camera angles too. The smooth animation"
And then my youngest student piped up, "Nice gradients." the rest of my class was quite confused since I had previously told them not to use gradients for shading. Not wanting to be shamed in front of my class, I quickly responded, "There's a huge difference between what Adam Phillips does with gradients, and what you want to do with them. You guys want to use gradients to show the depth of the boulder, which Adam does. *I zoom in on the yuyu boulder* Adma takes a step further by concluding that it is the gradient, not the solid color, that should be the base for the whole boulder. In effect, he is showing the "texture" of the boulder by using solid colors as shading. You can't do this vice versa and get this kind of result.

So NEway to the movie

I'm sure you already have heard as many compliments as you care to see.

I will say that my favorite parts are always where you are resourceful with the flash medium and with outside help. your not arrogant so that your mind is clouded that you could single-handedly animate the cloud of featherbugs (the scripting is superb btw, could you give me the name of who scripted them?)

But your wary enough of the success of this series to realize new elements must be added, something that will really promote flash to all reaches of the internet. And that i believe, is my favorite part of all.

"Excellent"

submission: Lemon Demon's "Bad Idea"

date: October 30, 2007

Didn't like the song too much (some of it just didn't flow right) but the animation was almost pitch perfect and the art was also really well done. Despite the song itself, this is probably the best of the lemon demon videos

Score: 9

"dude..."

submission: Salad Fingers Episode. 8

date: September 23, 2007

It was very well done. good art and animation. But it was definitelly not the salad fingers of our youth. We can steadily see the days past by through salad fingers' mind in seconds. He is slowly being overcome by his own insanity. The last 2 or 3 episodes have definitely shown a new side to salad fingers. Not the hilairiously demented salad fingers, but the fragile creature that finds both comfort and worry in his own confined space. He believes he knows what's real, and just like the real people of this world. Who's to say he's wrong?
