This is a little artistic expressive piece I did within a few days, mostly sleep-deprived. It tells a bit of a story through subtlety in motion, showing how what we see at first glance is mostly half of what's really there. As we take different angles on what we see, we begin to realize that something is missing, and our initial assumptions become obsolete. However, many of us are quick to stay with first impressions, but life reminds us not to be so shallow over time.

Well

THis was noob quality. it would be better if you spent something and read some flash codes before you attempt making a flash movie again

I've seen your submissions. They're only photo slideshows of viral internet photos that can be easily found on Google Images. And last I checked, that doesn't really take a whole lot of skill, time, or creativity to do. In fact, it's as simple as copy and paste. Don't tell me to read Flash documentation until you've done the same.

Well

I might not be a very experienced member yet, but does that meant I can't make a review? Well I mos't certainly can! My first review goes to Halved. It's a 3D Flash and it had no laggs on my computer at all and that's unusual. I got to this Amazing Flash by seeing a very praised filled review by HalfSlashing and went and saw an Flash which I couldn't make in my wildest dreams.

Only Half Awake Eh? can't wait to see you in a wide awake mode. And KageYama why whould you Vote so badly when you your self couldn't , make this your self? Oh and one last thing If ever using a wineglass again try to make it see through

Best of luck on your upcoming Flashs Bucause Ill be seeing them

Mutation responds:

Thank you very much for your kind words, they make me proud. I had contemplated making the glass transparent, but if I did that, it would have been immediately apparent (Though within a second it becomes obvious) that there was only half a glass, and the opaque goblet in turn reflected the environment, another symbolic secret. I am experiencing some technical difficulties with my software, which is why though I have promised and still do promise to make something much nicer, I haven't got the chance to start work on it. I'm personally getting sick of seeing wineglasses myself, so here's hope that I can get swift to work again and start learning how to make something more than half-baked =P Thank you again for your words, they shall not be forgotten.

Halved Indeed

My Friend That was absolutley wonderful. I see this every time i go on to newgrounds. a definet 5! all the way! I loved the base guitar plucking away verry mellowish. If this was blammed I would send millons of emails to Tom Fulp to get it back

Keep it Up!!!

Mutation responds:

Thank you very much! I never expected such a praise-filled review. It will not go unappreciated either, as each and every review I have is setting the baseline for my next one, which I'm going to attempt to make even better. Once I fully get the hang of flash and swift, my imagination is the limit, so thank you for the inspirational words.

i liked it so............

full marks not halved marks :P

Mutation responds:

Haha, thanks friend =P It's the spirit from people like yourself that drives my inspiration, so thank you again.

Heh...

I thought this was a very good/artistic idea, which is why I respect it...

It was short, and some people would find it boring, but I thought it was well done! I've tried to work with Swift 3D, and it just confused the heck out of me...

It would be great if you did a music video, or maybe a music video for some of my music.

I really liked this bud! Make more in the future! I would love to see what you can do!

Mutation responds:

A music video isn't a bad idea. I've listened to what you have in the audio portal, and I liked what I heard. Thank you for your criticism, as well as that of others, the message I'm getting is "Make it longer, make it cooler" so that's what I'm going to try. And if you come up with a new killer audio track, I just might have a bit more inspiration.
