Joes Farm 2

"The game size is wrong."

submission: Joes Farm 2
date: August 3, 2008

You should go in and change the size of the game field so that there isn't left over screen on either side.

All around it is an improvement on the original.

Fate of the Faye

"That is called rotoscoping."

submission: Fate of the Faye
date: August 2, 2008

Howdy! I like the effort here, though it seems that you took a video of someone and then drew over them to make the animation.

This can be good, but you have to stick more to the lines of the previous drawing that is what gives you the fluttery effect on your lines.

A good attempt just focus on cleaning up your linework a little more.

Primal War : Him

"Good but just a montage of other work."

submission: Primal War : Him
date: July 17, 2008

I enjoyed it but it is a mix of previous work. It's good but if you are just copying frames from previous animations it doesn't deserve as high of marks as the original release.

However yes good job on the animation. I can see a few places you have developed your skills over the time you have spent on the series.

Overall a nice recap of the development of the series but rehashed work so middle of the road marks.

Do you think viewers should watch this before or after watching the series?

Monster's Dream

"Nice work!"

submission: Monster's Dream
date: July 7, 2008

Howdy! Nice to see you are still at this and are having sucess! That animatic stuff comes hin handy doesn't it?

Anyway good job on the backgrounds and syncing to the audio it worked quite well. I would have ended it with a bit more pinash or with him waking up but I really liked it.

Author's Response:

haha thanks man, it's been a while!

yeah thanks to you i started taking animation a little more seriously in terms of storyboarding and what not :D all from that one collab.

anyway thanks for the review, yeah i had planned to add scenes of him in the "reality" imitating what he was doing in the dream but when i played it through it was even more confusing... the end result would have been him waking up and then passing out again but i went a different route. anyway on to new things right?

thanks again man, you helped me out a ton way back when :3

Tumbler

"I like it simple yet with a twist"

submission: Tumbler

I really like this game. I think the graphics are a bit rough around the edges still but I really think it is good.

I was wondering if you would mind if I hosted it on my website?

Super ping pong

"engine from flashkit but good job."

submission: Super ping pong
date: September 18, 2005

You made it your own that is good but I saw that engine on flashkit. It was open for download. you do let people change the look of the game but you really should give credit to the person who programmed the pingpong game. I mean what if you programmed it?

Author's Response:

Umm. this isn't downloaded engine, I have coded everything.

Newgrounds 10th Tribute

"FINALLY!!! WOOT!"

date: August 24, 2005

I have to say that was interesting. With that many artists in one collab that was really a piece of work! Leading a collab is tough! I SALUTE YOU!

Underfoot 1.2

"Nice work. Good use of explosions."

submission: Underfoot 1.2
date: August 17, 2005

Hi, I'm the guy who wrote the tutorial you used for your explosions. Very nice game. Graphics could use a bit of work in places... like the white line game it is kinda buggy and clearly rushed.

All in all it's a good and original game.

Metal Gear Fiesta 2

"What were you on when you made this?"

date: August 9, 2005

That was unexpected... pleasently so though.. it could have done without the arnold stuff... it seemed to much like filler. you might have put arnold in the croud or something.
