"Unprofessional and shows little effort"

submission: WKUK Russian Roulette

date: July 4, 2009

The only quality aspect of this animation is the audio, and since it was not created by the one taking credit for the animation, this movie fails. Even the audio quality is fuzzy at some times. The art is very, very primitive, and does not complement the audio. Come on- stick people and red and pink lines for blood and gore. There is no background, and the characters are poorly drawn and identical. The animation is not very smooth at all. Honestly, I do not think you deserve the credit for the work. WKUK made the audio skit, and that's what the ten-spamming idiots are reviewing, not your work. The good aspects of this animation are merely the okay choice of audio, for I did not think it was that funny, the lip synching was pretty good, and the fact that you DID cite the WKUK, but some of your idiotic reviewers did not understand. So, to improve, try working with original audio, draw a background, and take the Flash Portal a little more seriously and develop original comedy. This is not a work worthy of the acclaim it gets. I do not mean to insult you as an artist, but I feel this had to be said. Try harder and keep at it- I am sure that you can achieve better than this.

"Awesome RPG"

submission: Mega Zelby the RPG 3

date: June 25, 2009

The battle system is awesome, and so are the cutscenes for the most part. I am very happy that I had beta tested this before I played it, to get a taste of what turned out to be great. The Kirby battle was enjoyable, and I really liked the diversity of abilities amongst characters and the actual strategic elements to the battles, such as lowering X's attack to zero and then unleashing hell upon him! Also, the soundtrack was awesome- Zero-Resurrected is one of my favorite audio artists. Just a great work, but a little short and the interface is a little lacking. Look out for my name in the beta testers section of the credits! Keep up the amazing work!

"Really tough"

submission: Drop the Bomb (Medals)

date: June 23, 2009

One feature that would be nice to make it easier for some of the people that are complaining about it being "for U.S. only" would be to be able to disable certain categories. The only category that I think would be impossible to traverse for an intelligent person that is not American would be sports. Otherwise, the person is ignorant. Do you hear me saying "Oh, since I'm not a sports fan, it's unfair to ask me sports questions!" Seriously, it's a trivia game. You can't expect the artist to make every single question possible to answer by everyone.

All of this aside, I like the door animation, the artwork and the questions are interesting and not repetitive. The music does get annoying, but that's what turning the sound off on the computer is for! Overall, a solid trivia game with decent animation and a variety of questions. You have every right to be proud of this game.

"Dramatic and perfectly orchestrated"

submission: Maelstorm

date: August 31, 2009

The orchestration was stunning. Instead of being upstaged by the lead guitar, the two balance each other out with the speed and distortion of the guitar with the slower, cleaner sound of the choir voice. As usual, the intro grabbed me immediately. As it continues, I can find myself constantly impressed by the melodies. Each song of yours is so unique and amazing in its own way, but out of all of the great works, this has got to be my favorite. To give this review a little more substance rather than just excessive praise, though that is what the song deserves, I would agree that there should be some transition at 1:40 from the guitar to the orchestration, but quite honestly, I don't care. Best symphonic metal track I've heard on Newgrounds. Amazing work!

"Awesome song!"

submission: Unbroken Dream

date: July 19, 2009

I enjoyed the lead guitar very much, and the melody was great. The one thing stood out to me was how the song built on itself. The sort of angelic choir sound that started at 0:48 really fit into the song. My favorite aspect of the song is when at 1:25 the song deconstructs itself then builds again, adding the instruments back for a powerful transition to the outro. Great job!

"Incredible"

submission: Trump Card Alteisen

date: July 1, 2009

I've never played (or even heard of) the series in question, but the song is just amazing. I really like the piano, and my favorite part is the outro. I really don't see why people don't like the "random hits". I think they're perfect. The only noticeable flaw I see is the lack of transition to the outro. The guitar work is great, and though I thought the song was leading to become overly complex, it never sounds muddled to me. Great work!
