How to be like the hero of time: Link! This is my third video and to say the least, it was a little rushed because I want to make a new game. It's a pretty good movie and if you're a Zelda fan, you'll at least have a chuckle. Also, please review fairly and please tell me how to make it better. I appreciate the help. Oh and if you want to know one of the songs I used just leave a comment and I'll get back to you A.SA.P.
Go watch my how to be link 2

"Pretty Good"

It was pretty good! I only have one suggestion: instead of having clicking of the bubbles, just have them hang around for a while, so that the cursor doesn't have to be constantly moving around.

This was rather entertaining, it was worth the few minutes I had to spend to watch it.

That was.... actually pretty good! A lot of amatures try to do Link, so I went in with low expectaions, but that was decent :D

"Good, not great"

date: July 9, 2008

Somewhat grossly entertaining with comedic flair in some areas, yet an atrocity in others. What complements this is a poorly chopped animation with ill designed interactive features.
The illusion of the somewhat high scores previous to this review stems from your use of the very detailed backgrounds sourced from the original ideas itself. Besides this the rest is a rather shameful effort with poor technical merit. Besides this, it is offset with some nice chuckles every now and then. I find the funniest, if not, the best thing about the flash is the sound link makes when chased by that huge thing. What makes the flash even more valued is that it happens twice. I didn't see that coming and i give you merit there.
Focus on your skill of animating. Judging from your last flash submission, not much has improved but i know this and previous reviewer comments will direct you to produce a more remarkable and stunning animation.

"Good"

date: July 9, 2008

I liked the jokes except the joke where you say sort of and use it twice. Double joking is not good. The animation was nice and i could almost read all of the text. Sometimes the text came out of the bubble which is also not good. Good work, just make sure the comments i said are incorperated in your second part.

"A work in progress"

You completely forgot the Kaitengiri (spin slash), and a magical sword that'll shoot laser beams when you have all your hearts!

Oh, and not just one girl, try more like 5 (per adventure). Link's such a pimp. All those Zeldas, Lady-in-the-red-dress, Older-lady-next-to-the-lady-in-the-re d-dress, Saria, Ruto, Malon, Cucoo-lady, Nabooru, Midna, Ilya (sp?), etc.

8/10 for the almighty Hookshot

I could easily tell that you rushed this. However, it's quite funny. I hope you keep it up, and I'm looking forward to part 2

Relatively good writing too, but work on your animation skillz a bit; lest you disgrace yourself.

"Funny!"

date: July 9, 2008

Hey, this was funny!

I just dropped 1 star because you could improve a bit on animating (this is still watchable), and you used a freakin' Hannah Montana song! (LOL, just kidding.)

One thing to work on: I noticed some JPEG image quality (especially in enlarged sprites), and this doesn't look that great.

"That was too good."

by: Hynra
date: July 9, 2008

One star off because of a slightly impromptu feel about the piece. There's just no substitute for that great, polished look that's not quite there in this one.

I can't wait for the next!! :) but try to clean it up a bit more than this one.

Keep it up! :)
