It is

++++ Made me smile with its silliness. The idea of robopico... the ending...

---- The graphics are inconsistent and somewhat bad. You have the gun from a photo or whatever plonked in and it really doesn't go with anything else. If this'd been a mixed media piece that woulda been cool, but seeing as it's just that one thing... Also, the thin lines on the bullet don't really go with the thick lines of the character, I think.

The wobbly lines didn't look too good in this piece. If it'd been really sketchy throughout, my opinion might be different, but it looks as if you just need to practise your drawing and keep at it.

Lastly, maybe do a level of shading on the close-ups.

+++ Some lip-synching.

---- The song seems to carry on after the movie has finished. No need. Set it to stream, fade it out and Flash will abandon the unused frames, making for a much lower filesize for the same experience.

It is technically crappy. You just need practise. I liked the joke though.

EdwinsGeneration responds:

hahaha i truly appreciate your honest review and im happy that someone with flash knowledge/experience finally reviewed it! Anywho.. All of ur points are valid but heres my reasons for them
Graphics ARE inconsistent ..i made it in about 3 hours or more ..completely rushed solely for the purpose of 'pico day' haha so its ok.. I know wut u mean by shadin close ups i just got lazy fo real plus i mean i didnt think i would spend so much time on a NG holiday flash.. I should have indeed quit the song tho

Thanks :)

I just come away thinking 'what the fuck'...

----- Really, the whole movie was pretty unintelligible. What is a 'Dark Clone'?? What's going on? This movie explains nothing. After the content supplied by other folk, all we get to see are that the world has somehow become, literally, darker.

---- The shape tweens like you have them are interesting to mess about with in Flash, but they're just cheap and not really suitable for a final movie.

++ Asuming you drew the houses and landscape (unlike the start - shame on you for taking that!) you can obviously draw.

I just come away thinking 'what the fuck'... I'm not sure if this is meant as a joke... If it's meant to confuse and bewilder, good job. Incidentally, it's not an emotion I often experientce. If it's meant to actually entertain beyond that initial bewilderment...

NinoGrounds responds:

Thanks for the helpful review.

I actually credited Buzzworld later. You should see it.

enjoyed this somewhat

I was kinda expecting a big surprise based on your comments and was kinda disappointed.

++++ Again, great animation; nice models. I specially liked the clay twigs.

-- Though the young ogre should have feet.

--- I felt that the conclusion was a bit disappointing. So this is why he hates living there? I was hoping for something more of an event... something surprising. The snowman coming to life was interesting, but it led to less than I'd hoped.

Preferred the start for its more interesting dialogue and surprising turn of events. Still enjoyed this somewhat though and the end made me smile.

MackProductions responds:

Sorry to disappoint. Well this is a single film that by being split into two pieces makes for comparison between the two, which is a reason I'm unhappy about splitting it into two.
The surprising turn of events was in part 1, but with the movie as a whole it is just what comes before the climax, so it isn't mean to be though of as "in the beginning section."

Well thank you for the review, I do appreciate it.

I enjoyed part of it.

+++ The monologue about the cookie made me chuckle slightly, as did Neo's response to being able to do crazy things. The 'smurf' bit made me smile.

-- The rest didn't really make me smile even. I find it hard to critique humour. The 'costume drama' was pretty unoriginal though.

-- Poor animation. I think you just need practise here.

RogerregoRRoger responds:

glad you enjoyed a bit of it tough then

rests in your mind

++ The water at the start does look fantastic. Is it made up using photos?

- Some vectors aren't so great. I thought the hands looked kinda flat and didn't like the way the bottle looks in the water all that much.

+++ Beautiful music. Evocative.

++ Some nice colours.

----- I felt the ending was really unsatisfying.

It is a haunting piece. Having read your author's comments, I do start to wonder about the little character. Questions flitter about.

Maybe one of those movies that rests in your mind and grows into something more than it was on-screen. A simple feeling evoked grows into a fuller story.

PapaQ responds:

Yeah, the water's made up using 2 wave images at a low alpha, moving against eachother over a sea gradient background.
Let it grow...

It didn't make me laugh

+++ I like your style of 'humour'. It doesn't really make me laugh so much, but it's kinda off-beat stuff that surprises and makes me smile.

++++ Surprising little twists.

++ I like the way you show emotion fairly well with the lock.

- The way the eyes disappear seems kinda cheap.

-- I didn't laugh.

overall

I thought this was gonna be some sort of wierd arty thing. Instead I got an amusing little romp, which I fairly enjoyed. The quality of voices and everything really added to the amusing story.

It didn't make me laugh, but it did send a few smiles my way.

Wonchop responds:

heh k

A slight chuckle.

++ Made me chuckle slightly at the punchline.

-- Voices at the start were a bit unintelligible

- limited animation

- basic gfx

+ but the gfx have a kind of cute appeal.

++ I like the format (newsflash style)

Made me chuckle slightly at the ending. It's no masterpiece but I think it was worth watching thanks to the punchline and speedy delivery.

Nice stuff.

ReklessCreati0n responds:

I enjoy your reviews, please review more of my stuff :)

yeah, the GFX weren't all that... i'm sorry :/

to blam a submission:

I believe you should rename it something like 'delete_yym01' then send an e-mail to Wade.

Btw, I kinda like the picture you have after the pre-loader. Bright colours and correct perspective.

thanks, I'll do that.
