"I laughed."

submission: 300 - The Collab

date: March 23, 2007

But I think that was mainly due to the author comments.

Anyway, I watched this movie last night, and then I was all like "I know, I'll watch that 300 parody on NG", and now here I am. The film being fresh in my mind certainly boosted the appreciation level, but not by much. I would have liked to see more than just two parts. The music was good though.

Still, I have a soft spot for pointless garbage parodies, which this was. Carry on!

Score: 7

"Awesome."

submission: The Epic Raid on NG

date: March 18, 2007

Haha, yeah, that was good. At first I was really disapointed that I wasn't online during the "raid", as I wanted to see the fail in person, but I had no idea it would be this epically bad. It's a good thing I was linked to your submission so I could get the lowdown.

I mean seriously, for a raid, what a disgrace. As I said, it's not that I thought anything would happen anyway, but I did think there would be more than this.

Nice little tribute flash to quite possibly the least effective raid in interwebs history.

Score: 10

"Yes."

submission: Rebecca

date: March 3, 2007

I have watched Rebecca so many times that I felt a review was in order.

Pure. Brilliance.

Score: 9

"Milky Goodness."

submission: Milk Madness

date: August 7, 2005

Haha, THAT WAS GREAT. Long have I waited for the milk game to appear, and now my dreams of commanding the dairy cannon can finally be realised.

Presentation and stylewise, you get top marks. Although a simple little game, the graphics were nicely done and animated, and its good to see things like menu's, help, credits, and nice title screen. It certainly adds to the professionalism level. I was hoping for different difficulty setttings, but maybe in the sequal ; )

The music and audio were quality (the sound effects all had a certain 'milkyness' to them), and that song is still looping in my head. A perfect choice for theme of the game.

It's downfall is probably it's lack of replayability, but its still got a whole heap of novelty value to make up for that. Overall, nice job with the game Dan and Paiste. Do more collabs!

Score: 10

"Video Portal Plz."

submission: Castle 3D-Video PortalPLS

date: August 2, 2005

Great work there Chrispington.

Being a huge fan of all things medieval, this submission really appealed to me. The design of the castle was great, and it's good to see work of this quality appearing on Newgrounds.

The graphics themselves were good quality, bearing in mind the horror file size restrictions, and the audio track was a great choice (hmmmm, battle music). Even though the camera was just doing simple sweeps of the stronghold, it was still very interesting looking at all the detail you put it (I actually watched it through a few times, without noticing the loop, such was the glory).

This submission is further evidence that NG needs a Video Portal.

NOW!

Score: 10

"Haha, GREAT."

submission: Alkie Kong

date: July 17, 2005

I really liked that game, it had just the right mix of novelty and gameplay. Also, being a huge fan of the old school ganes, I really appreciated the whole Donkey Kong theme.

The animation and music suited the style really well, and the whole thing was nicely presented, with an intro, and menu, and what not. Different modes were also a plus, although I have only tried the hard mode so far.

Anyway, it was fun for the whole fmaily. I'm hoping to see this one make the frontpage soon. Great work guys.

Score: 4

"Hmmm. Rather disapointing."

submission: Jackass Quiz

date: July 16, 2005

Being someone who appreciated Jackass and CKY in the past, I thought I would check this quiz out. Unfortunately, I wasn't too impressed at all. First off, the graphics are really bad. There is some AS knowledge demonstrated in the game, but the presentation side really lets it down. If there was a nice graphical interface, with a bit of style and a good colour scheme, I think this could have done a little better.

As for the game itself, the content was ok. AS I have watched alot of these shows, I thought I would know pretty much all the questions, but even I found some of them hard. The questions seemed aimed at die-hard fans, as opposed to general viewers, but meh.

Overall, nothing impressive at all. The massive filesize doesn't help either, and I know that if you compress video more, the quality is terrible. Unfortunately, the format itself is hard to submit, with the 5 mb limit and all. Anyway, keep it up, and hopefully your next submission will be better.

Score: 6

"Well done, but too short."

submission: HandyMen: Armed

date: June 29, 2005

That was a pretty cool little flash. I thought the animation was great, and the concept was good, it was just a little too short. I especially liked the design for your characters, and the NG tank turned out really well. In regards to artistic quality, this flash was impressive.

The idea itself was simple, but still came out nicely. I would say though, that overall the content was lacking. Keep up the good work misterjoe.

Score: 8

"Nice little story."

submission: a present??

date: June 24, 2005

I'd like to see this submission pass judgement, although it was a little different, I thought it worked really well. The style of frame by frame animation you used was very well executed, and fitted in with the theme of your short.

The story itself was simple and fairly unoriginal, but nice nonetheless. I think this submissions strongest point was it's animation though. Keep up the great work cristian.

Score: 7

"Nice little idea."

submission: Backyard Fireworks!

date: June 24, 2005

That was quite a nice flash, simple and short, but still well done. I liked the style, and while there was only minimal movement within the film, and it had a nice story book feel and worked well I think. I really like that frame by frame animating technique.

Interesting little click to advance story, clearly just a gimmick for the celebration message, though it still kept my attention enough. Maybe next time, you could make the story more involving, and linger.

The audio was fairly plain, and the sound effects used kind of reminded me an operating system sounds. Nothing too interesting, although I guess it worked ok with your idea. The applause got a little annoying though.

There is some nice animation in this flash, as well as some moderate actionscripting. I'm sure you will be submitting some great work in the furture, so keep it up Dave.
