The Good, The Bad, and The Verdict

THE GOOD:
-Excellent animation
-Wonderful, well-thought out storyline
-Interesting concept
-Great choice of music

THE BAD:
-... Um... ?

THE VERDICT:
I just can't find a fault with this. It's a fantastic, brilliantly conducted work of art. Your use of ordinary, monochrome vector art blended with the occasional special effect, your music choices, the plot... Every last detail is fantastic, right up to the ending. This is undoubtedly one of my favorite Newgrounds submissions.

Oh, and bonus points for using the Shinra Corporation theme tune. BIG bonus points. ;D

The Good, The Bad, and The Verdict

THE GOOD:
-Great art style
-Positively flawless animation
-Enormous variety & imagination
-Excellent character representations

THE BAD:
-... Um... Nope, I got nothing. :D

THE VERDICT:
Well, congratulations: you have officially created the first NG animation I have ever seen, that I can find NO FAULTS WITH WHATSOEVER. I've never said this before... But it's perfect!!!

Your character stylizing was perfect, making everyone instantly recognizable. The number of cameos you worked in was also highly impressive. Your animation was brilliantly, flawlessly executed, and the song choice was perfect too. I'm serious dude...

This.

Is.

Perfect.

The Good, The Bad, and The Verdict

THE GOOD:
-Excellent animation
-Good style
-Great humor
-Nice character development

THE BAD:
-The cat was a little gross

THE VERDICT:
Wow. Just wow. You took a flower, an ordinary, cartoon flower, and made it into a lovable, empathizable character. I found myself laughing over and over as he encountered one situation after another, all in a hilariously exaggerated style. You tied the scenes together beautifully, and the expressions on the flower's face were PRICELESS.

Other than that cat scene, which is really just a personal issue, I honestly can't find any fault whatsoever with this movie. You absolutely deserve full marks; this is an epic win!

The Good, The Bad, and The Verdict

THE GOOD:
-Strangely addicting
-Cute graphics
-Challenging

THE BAD:
-Music - such as it was - was really repetetive.
-A little "sticky" in places

THE VERDICT:
Nice, challenging game, with absolutely adorable baby birds. ^_^ On the other hand, the paddle had a tendency to "stick," that is, move jerkily, when quickly moved a large distance. Also, as I said, the music was just WAY too repetetive. Let me put it this way: it's a fun game, and worth trying out, but not something I'd come back to play again.

The Good, The Bad, and The Verdict

THE GOOD:
-Cute graphics
-Innovative gameplay
-Smooth, flawless operation

THE BAD:
-Err... ^_^

THE VERDICT:
Absolute front page material. This is probably the most entertaining & unusual Flash game I've ever seen. Marvellous work gamezhero!

For the record: 48,879 in hexadecimal is "BEEF". Make of that what you will.

I'm getting down to this, all right!

This is good. It's really, really good. It's a 9/10. Unfortunately, it falls just short of being FREAKING AWESOME because of two points.

No, I'm not about to start complaining about the drums; personally I think they're just right, and very well-mastered for this. The first, and major point, is that after the absolutely hardcore guitar jamming in the second part of the main loop (around 0:34 and 1:15), because of the amazing force of the guitar, I expected you to really PUNCH IT with an "orchestra hit" or something similar, to give that real "DUN-DUN!!" effect. Unfortunately, absolutely nothing happened except a tiny little "doo-doo" from the synth pad. Complete letdown, with no impact at all.

The other, more minor complaint, is that the ending is... Well, just not sufficient. It needs SOMETHING else, even if just a sustained note, or a fadeout on a third loop. As it is, the song just ENDS point-blank.

This is a 9 of 10 because it's just that damn good. But if you ever remix it and fix the anticlimaxes, 10 will be nowhere near good enough for it. ;D

Dear god in heaven!!!

This is MAGIC. PURE MAGIC.

I don't have the faintest idea how it could bear such a low rating as less then 4... This is an indescribably beautiful piece! Most people, myself included, would think of capturing the energy and the motion of the Space Harrier theme, but you found something totally different hidden within its notes. This... This is remarkable, this is A Whole New World, this is Beauty and the Beast, this is... I can't even describe it. The worth, emotion, joy and outright LOVE of every beautiful piece of classical music I've ever heard is in this (and not just those from Disney, haha).

You have taken this music beyond its game of origin, beyond its time of birth and beyond an and all of my possible expectations. Hats off to you; you've brought a tear to my eye and sent a shiver down my spine. This song IS pure magic.

DigitalDuck responds:

I take it you liked it, then?

Thanks for the response; I tend to get a lot of 0s for some reason, so these ratings are usually a little lower than they should be. My Afterburner remix is quite similar, so you should probably check out that one too.
