***WARNING: CONTAINS FLASHING LIGHTS!!!***

Today is the day BlueHippo celebrates his 20th birthday. Most of us should know him on the BBS, the portal or maybe by getting a review ban from him. ;)

Enjoy and Happy 20th Birthday BlueHippo!

"Excellent"

Good as always,BlueHippo was quite funny in it. Also

The graphics were cool. Quite liked how you did a very cartoon style beat up scene. Very nicely done.

The sound was great nice voice acting as ever, and the sound effect were great

The story was great, quite liked how BH had mod powers for no reason at all & the blooper thing at the end was brilliant. Another quality movie from you :D

"Alright"

Well it wasn't too bad, the scene which had the violance in did seem to kind of work with the flashing lights and everything, so that's pretty good, didn't really need to have the actually fighting. Though a diffrent voice would have been good for the one being killed, might have given the ending away but maybe would have been a little better to have.

The sound effects and voice acting where okay, though the sound effects where better, lol. No offence on the voice acting, some of it was good but some parts could have donw with work. On the whole, it wasn't too bad.

3/5

But Wyvern, Fagamut and Bahamut all have the same voice. A different voice would have given it away. It's also why I kept that violent scene hidden.

"yeah, the off-scene ultra-violence was TH3 Aw3S0mE"

date: April 19, 2008

I'm sure BlueHippo will appreciate these birthday greetings, and I smiled too. I thought the audio samples had good quality, though that vocal at the very end had some distortion in the louder parts.

I suspect there's some in-joke at play in the story. Is Bahamut a terrible cook in RL?

I felt the background of the house interior was a flaw in the animation. Either a simpler background, perhaps a color gradient, or a more complex & realistic image (a photograph could work if the author is not confident to draw a realistic interior).

"Is Bahamut a terrible cook in RL?"

Pretty much, yeah. I lack the cooking experience.

"a photograph could work if the author is not confident to draw a realistic interior"

I'm trying to stay away from using photographs now. I wish to have the majority or everything to be drawn. Of course, the dragon sprite figure is still a sprite, but I hope to change that someday. :)

Thanks for reviewing.

"Liked the abstracted depiction of violence."

by: Bezman

I've always liked the font you use in your intro. You should maybe think about using for more stuff. Specially the 'next' and 'replay' buttons which are (and have been for a while) a bit shit. Cyan on grey looks tacky, specially combined with the thin sans serif, which I assume is verdana.

I like the script-serif font you've used for 'Notes'. the 'happy birthday bluehippo' message alongside his icon looks cool too. Btw, is that just verdana emboldened with flash's text-editor?

Bluehippo is well drawn and I LOVED the way you depicted the killing. Quite stylish and reserved. The 'slashes' were cool too and it was far better to have it done this way.

There was some other stuff I didn't like, but you really should sort out the next and 'replay' buttons. The end screen would actually look pretty nice this time if the replay button was different.

April 19, 2008

Author's Response:

Of course, that replay button. I'm afraid it will have to do for now, but I WILL change it someday!

Heh, you're really good at knowing which fonts I use. :)

Yep, BlueHippo nicely draw himself for myself to borrow it, but I WILL draw BlueHippo myself sometime.

Thanks for another great review Bezman. :)

"Bluehippo i <3 you!"

Well im not a fan of bluehippo but now i am!

~~~Graphics~~~
Well avry one is well drawn and the background is good and thats all i can say...This animation is mostly based on the talking not the doing...

~~~Animation~~~
Well there pracktickly is none,since the dragon beings are not moving when thay speak and bluehippo only moves his mouth and walk a little and thats just it. If you wudv included the killing scene you cudv made ALOT of fans but since you didn't,your loss....

~~~Sounds~~~
Now this is the section of the review i love wrighting about! The voice acting wasn't perticaly good but i loved what thay said and made me laugh.You shoud'v added some silent background music.Also the sound effects from the killing part were good and very well placed...

~~~OVERALL~~~
Well if you can ignore these reasons youl enjoy this video and have a good laugh at the same time!
P.S. Happy Birthday BlueHippo!

Seeing Wyvern actually being killed is not cool at all. :P

Awesome, thanks! :D And of course, thanks for this good review.
