"First Flash Eh? More like..."

submission: The Motrix

date: June 27, 2003

The first glimpse of a potential flash artist!

Oh, my apologies. Good evening, my identity is HaroFreak.

On another blam/protect trip in the Portal, I came across your movie. And... Here I go:

The graphics of your "Motrix" (Mariotrix, I initially thought) are decently implemented, partiucularily the after-images. The Luigis (sic) are no exception to the additional graphics. My only complaint is the constrain of making many animations using only one sprite. I believe you can improve on it in the future.

Your sound... well. Not too much to compliment about it. You put in a sound file. No speical stuff, no flashy dramatics, no confusion!

Despite how small your filesize is (Which is a good thing, I promise. Since you kept the file small for all animations), I suggest you add a pre-loader since not everyone has Broadband. Heck; Not everyone's Modulator Demodulators (MoDem, for Short) exceeds 48.8k!! Snag one from the Portal page and follow its instructions. It would fit just fine.

Style and the other properties of your movie are not much to mention. All along the so-so boundary. Nothing too "Capturing" about any of those properties.

Well, in summary; It is a nice cute little remake of the "Matrix Reloaded" battle scenes using "Mario Bros." characters. If you other people out there are reading this review, trust me, this movie is worth a shot if you're willing to see how much untapped potential this "Flasher" has.

Score: 9

"Amazing... Just like in live movies!"

submission: >>> Kung Fu <<<

date: June 26, 2003

Good evening, this is HaroFreak reviewing,

I have stumbled across your flash movie quite some time ago, but only got to now that I can show my feelings about this (And because I did not have much time).

Your graphics are amazingly implemented. I had no idea that "Kung Fu" can emulate the actual fighting style I use in my place. Now I know.

The sound was all realistic and again, well implemented right to the end.

The humour was high all in all, partly because of the sudden "Bitchange" which was actually used in great succession! Well done for that.

Style, Violence and interactivity. All along the So-so range, but it is beacuse pixellated blood is not so catchy as actual stuff like your sequels.

Oh well, there is always a first.

All in all, this movie is a "Simple, Thrilling, Funny, Action-Packed, Well-Made, Focused and AWESOME movie to behold. Well done.

Score: 10

"This is THE Rockman Tribute"

submission: Rockman Neo

date: June 22, 2003

Second to none skill in mouseart Flash Animation. It is amazing how much someone can do with the Flash Program, and your submission is no exception.

The graphics are top notch and darwn with style, but lost a mark because the... Ah heck. It's perfect for what it is.

The music has been perfectly synchronised with the Animation which appeals greatly to viewers particularily Anime Freaks such as myself.

Style here is totally unique as far as I can see and with reference to the Music x Graphics, it has been well implemented by you.

As for Humour, Interactivity and Violence... I was mostly stunned for most of the movie to be laughing or sick, as I was knocked away by the awesome "Darkness" of the 30XX era.

If you are working on the game (Which I have a beta of), then I wish you the best of luck.

Score: 10

"Zelda: Parody of SWEETNESS!"

submission: The Return of Ganondorf

date: June 21, 2003

I am extremely impressed with how smooth you have animated this flash!! The style here is unpredictably fluent and consistent, and the sound is clear without any external inteference!

The buttons above the movie add to the interaction.

The humour is all at a high as Link's reactions were really like his child-like self, especially with Ganondorf's reactions.

Graphics are excellent as they... as typed above... fluent, consistent AND very showing.

I only give movies a 10 as an overall when they deserve it, and this is no exception. Congratulations.

Score: 7

"An impressive and unpredicted submission"

submission: Dress-up Roll

date: June 20, 2003

Unlike many Anime out there (Evangelion, Dragonball and Gundam in particular), this dress-up game was most unpredictable partly because there are not many Good Looking Female Characters in the original Rockman. But when Rockman Dash made its debut, huge amounts of Doujinshi (Hentai in particular) has been released such as "Tron No Manma" and "Roller Dash" to name two of them.

The colours of Roll Casket presented here are solid but... I personally think it is a bit too dark.

In general, the game is impressive, I had to drop style a bit since there are no Character reactions and the Roll Casket image presented here looks familiar to the one drawn by Darjeeling in a Japanese Site.

Putting Originality aside, it is one dress-up which is a rare sight and should not be missed by the drooling Roll Casket fanboys.

Score: 2

"................."

submission: G Gundam: Fight

date: June 18, 2003

No offence intended, but I must admit that this movie has gone beyond the threshold of good taste. You make G Gundam look horrid (Graphics wise).

The purpose of a Flash Parody is to make it LOOK real, but have a different feel to it. Which I must type that your "God Gundam" does not look like the orignal Kunio Ogawara Version. I could have called it another "Guyver" esque make like the Zeta Gundam Box-Art from Japan, but it was just too un-cool to categorise it.

Despite how your Grey Shades add a metallic feel to it, the animation and unproportioned effects has made this an eyesore.

Better luck next time.

Score: 10

"I found a link to that before from MM outpost..."

submission: The Dr. Wily Show

date: January 15, 2003

Now that I can finally have a chance to rate it under the utopia of NG...

Ever since I have seen this from a link, I guess I got attached to your work almost instantly. I like the way you can make those free mouse style drawings, and the non-proportional way you do it adds to the comical style of yours. This so far is my number two in my personal favourites with first being your awesome Neo and the third being the whole series of Wily pants... I mean Shorts. The funny music adds to it well, and not too loud or too funny as well, just enough to add and not reduce from the humour unlike some AM animators like myself, I'm still learning...

The most enjoyable parts involve Gutsman and other Dumb Robot Master parts. I'd like to see more of Gutsman in the future works of yours.

Score: 10

"Is this reality? It is, is it?"

submission: Gordie The Moronfish

date: January 15, 2003

I can't believe this GREAT piece of work. Despite the fact that it is somewhat short, but that's not what I watch movies for. The synchronisation of sound and anything else is worth mentioning. The eye blinks (Even though Fish don't) was a great part of the humour. And the Remote control pressing, that part was great too, and not to mention the Intro theme. That was unique and what I expect from Andrew Dickman. Just like your Wily Show, I am looking forward to your next piece of work.

Score: 10

"Excellent... The greatest Fan made Pico ever..."

submission: Pico's Mansion! (Demo)

date: January 15, 2003

I never imagined that someone has the sKi11z to recreate a side story game to the well known Pico's School. Everything is accurate and there are no bugs as I know it. The style is a perfect mark as its making style is as if it's another official release of the NG kid. Humour is top notch because... Hey, It's Pico I guess. In summary, This creator has great potential as a Flash based Game Programmer, I expect highly of his next flash movie/game in the making...

Score: 10

"A long Awaited Christmas Movie..."

submission: Final Fantasy Trilogy 3-1

date: December 26, 2002

I'm glad to say that the movie is more than worth the wait. I've always expected quality work from Razoric's Rob Foor. I'm glad that he has done it again.

The humour is excellent and each small storyline was done is great quality.

Again, an excellent piece of work for the Christmas time.
