"Yay!"

Incredibly enjoyable! Highly appreciative checkpoint system and rewarding mechanics and ending. Great stuff--please pat yourselves on the back for me. :3

"Woopiteedee"

submission: The Parkour Collab

date: December 17, 2009

Nicely done. :3

I liked the character model of the very final collab entry the best, and the touch of humor it offered. Really great pieces all around. Very imaginative, and a great spectrum of skills and ideas.

Score: 0

"Broken."

submission: Sheriff The Justice

date: December 15, 2009

Happened in levels one and four, I kept shooting the same cowboy but every time his life bar went down, it just instantly refilled. He wouldn't go down no matter how much I shot him. :/ Ads after every level completed don't really help much either...

Score: 9

"Good Job!"

submission: Minor Distractions

date: December 12, 2009

It's a shame a stolen work got the Third Daily. I thought this was really well done and you should certainly continue just as you are.

Critique wise, I could have seen this animation as a whole get done within 1 MB, that loop of lofi audio for the animation was appropriate but the hifi FallOut boys song only needlessly bloats this flash file.

Score: 8

"Needs an endless mode..."

submission: Infectonator!

date: December 6, 2009

Really could have been great if I could have kept playing. Like an endless/sandbox mode. It was great fun until the game decided it wanted to stop playing... : /

Score: 10

"Box of Fantastic"

submission: The Company of Myself

date: November 27, 2009

It's just so poignant. And the twist in the game play really adds so much to the entire experience. You really do end up playing with just yourself and it's so fantastic to be a part of this kind of game so intimately.

Really great stuff. It'd take the edge off the story if you felt compelled to make a sequel, but I'm sure we'd all love some challenge levels for whenever you have the time to make em. :3

Score: 10

"I'm really glad I didn't let this slip past me"

submission: Professor Fucking Layton

date: September 14, 2009

I'm a big fan of Professor Layton and it was getting kind of lonely being the only one making animations (and poor one as that xD) about the game. I laughed out loud a lot watching this and I really like the dark angle you took over this. The choice of colors was great--even the icon is pretty ballsy. :3

The VA is great--it reminded me something straight out of CSI. They sound so damn smexy. Especially Layton! My guys could learn something from you.

I don't know what I could offer in terms of constructive critique aside from the pitch effects on the voices kinded added a noticeable warble on the higher pitched characters. I'm not a big fan of looping either, but that's my personal taste.

Anyway, great stuff dude!

Score: 10

"Love Layton!"

submission: Professor Layton here

date: August 16, 2009

I feel bad for not finding this any sooner. I love the Professor Layton series and spoofs. :3

I really liked this animation a lot--a lot of care went into the design of the art and it was simple enough to automatically get the kind of humor that follows it. The ending theme montage was especially well done too. Good job on this all!

Score: 10

"Pratical Eggsalad"

submission: Adam and Eve

date: July 25, 2009

I love it. Nice twist on everything, and your variety of humor is exactly what I strive for when I try to be funny. Very cleverly done and great VA quality. There was a Canadian lapse on one of the lines XD that really cracked me up.

"What are you talking aboot?"

Score: 10

"Some questions..."

submission: Pika VS Onix

date: July 23, 2009

I love the comedic touch at the very end, and the audio mixing was superb.

Some quick questions that'll help me improve:

The light show effects that you used, especially for moves such as Onix's hyper beam, were those originally done as just a sliding batch of shapes that got turned into a movie clip--and then had a glow filter attached to it after you knocked out the base image?

Also, there was a lot of blurs used in this but the final size of the animation was less than two megs and there was virtually no lag. Did you keep in mind anything to intentionally minimize lag--or was a fluke?

For fight scenes like this, did you add the sfx before, during, or after the animating process?

I appreciate the help in advance!
