Ace animation dude. ACE. No one has an eye for gore quite like you do, heh.

Excellent work sir. You have a sharp eye for artistic angles and effects. One thing though, ease up on some of the filters/ blurs. Lagged the comp at some points. Other than that, rock solid stuff.

This is an absolute stunning mix of so many well-polished skills. Technical flash skill, actionscripting, 3-d modeling, animation, music creation, and game design. Denvish sir I do believe you can do it all. You're a virtual one-man game creation studio.
A fun game that you can jump right in and shoot stuff, or go hardcore and play on crazy mode (haha, didn't quite get to that myself :p) I love the small touches that make this all the better. Your hovering scroll bars, music volume adjust, multiple save files, high scores, the list goes on
Here's hoping this gets to top 50 and stays there for a while, because you earned it =)
Author's Response:
Thanks Afro, that means a lot coming from you. It's been a culmination of 5 years learning of Flash and other programs, and I'm very happy with the result, and the response it's recieved. I have a feeling that the score is going to steadily drop from here on in, but so long as it stays above 4.30 by tonight, I should have my first top 50'er. Unfortunately I can't hope to compete with your Weekly User's Choice (the competition has been TOUGH this week), but I really have no reason to complain.
Thanks for the review, man, and I'll see you on the BBS.

This could quite possibly be the most fun, well-balanced, varied, fluidly animated flash platformer I've ever played. The code is pretty much rock solid, which is rarely seen in platformers these days. I look forward to the sequel. Great work!

Alex, I think this is a momentous improvement from your recent movies. Well, the last one I saw at least. I love the NG theme. Voice acting was good, although watch out for those mic pops. And yeah, maybe a little lip sync couldn't hurt next time : )
But overall, <3. I look forward to your future improvements!
(and congrats on your upcoming daily award!)
Author's Response:
Hey ! Glad you liked it man !
Woaw, Shawn Tanner himself is reviewing my movie? What an honour... I'm glad you noticed the improvements I've been trying to make, along with the NG theme. I tried to make this movie a funny movie, and this is the result. And oh, I have NO idea what are those mic pops! They aren't on the .wav file ... it's so weird!
About the lip-synching, I'm a terrible animator, at least, that's what I think. Plus, I'm very lazy, so when it comes to TRULY animate ... oh well, it's a whole other story. I've tried lip-synching in the past, in vain... with time maybe things will get better !
I don't know about the award though, maybe, who knows ? There's still 4h until the next day, in 4 hours, many great submissions can arrive. But I'll try to be positive ! =D
Thanks for the kind and motivating review.
ALEX

It's good to see an artist that's already experienced with hand drawn art try out flash. Especially impressive for a first flash : )
Simple but effective graphics and animation. And good choice of music
Not to mention that there's few female flashers around here. Hope to see more!

Watching your movie aggravates me ;)
Look dude, I've said it before and I'll say it again. You have some really good movie ideas. Good sense of direction, good music choice, etc. But please, please please please
FIX YOUR GRAPHICS
Your graphics have barely improven since your first comet magnum episodes. Honestly, you would get 4.0+ for your movies if you could just spend more time on the drawings. Study Perspective- Drawing from one or two source points (when doing architecture) will make all the edges line up and look correct. Many times your buildings have lines that slant four different directions. Cut back on the gradients, they usually don't look good unless put on a flat surface. And lastly, keep an eye on your body proportions. Sometimes they're fine but the next instant they can look insanely out of whack
I would expect these kind of habits from a new animator, but you've been around for a couple years now. Step it up ;)
