wow Needle good stuff
you are now at the top of my favorite artists list
i can't wait to see more :)
i have some questions
did you submit this before i think i've seen it?
and are you working on a SG4?
i just cant wait to see more classic games
have you ever played a game called startropics?
i think it the hardest game ever!!!!
not counting the ones i never beat
keep them coming!
You can check the author's notes for the answers to these questions, but I'll repeat them here for ya anyways.
This was submitted as part of a collaboration for Time Trial IV. That's probably where you saw it.
March should see the release of an episode 4 trailer - which will be a little mini-movie of its own - as well as a full-blown Episode 4 towards the end of the month!
pretty fuckin sweet
i didnt understand it but then i went back and read the meaning it was good
That was amazing!
That definately got me hooked. My only comment is about that anoying sound the monsters kept making over and over. Other than that, it was great!
Hey, that annoying screenching sound is ME!
But you're right, it is a bit annoying. You can imagine how I felt after 30 hours of production...
Completely Worthy Flash
I only review movies I absolutely love, or absolutely hate. This is a case of a movie I'm smitten with.
When I first saw this on the TT, I was amazed at how you produced that in 30 hours, truly incredible. Anyways, on to the point:
graphics: Amazing, loved the simplistic animation that used the camera to save time so characters didn't need to move much. Also, the creatures just look really cool.
Style: Great style, the look and feel of the movie is unique, and highly original, I loved the symbolism of the entire film.
Sound: Perfect sound for the flash content, I really enjoyed the background music as it set the tone beautifully (StarCraft... booya)
Violence: Perfect amounts for the movie, and used wisely to convey your idea.
Interactivity: Good, the only thing I would recommend would be a preloader that went directly in to the DVD menu after loading is finished, I'm lazy, and that clicking twice to play the movie bothers me slightly.
Humor: Not exactly a light flash, although there is some irony present which allowed for a better than zero score there.
Overall is a 10 cuz I enjoyed watching it, and really like movies that make you think (Check out Pustota)
My interpretation was a little different, as they all must be, I thought of it as not so much that the first lizard pushed the other off his perch, but that he fell and instead of recieving help he was devoured. I guess, simplified, this is a sort of golden rule flash--do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Thanks for the fantastic review. It's always nice to hear that people have arrived to different conclusions than myself - I would rather people develop their own opinions than listen to mine and nod their head. Newgrounds needs a dose of Serious every now and then - it keeps things in perspective while you're wading through SWAT team flashes. :)
PS The music is a Super Metroid remix, but you were close ;)
kick ass
real good work lets c more
