wow, a twist
that was well done, even if it was a bit slow
Reviews for "Hacker's Pride"
Red-Communist responds:
there's much of text and most my friends don't know English very well, they need more time to read everything
Not bad, but not great either, so it's OK
You could have put a little more sound in it.
you also spelt the name of the 'toon wrong, heh
Red-Communist responds:
already corrected
Naive
A naive view of hacking (eg: the same view as directors of big Hollywood movies have of hacking), but for a first-time flash quite allright (certainly compared to the load of CRAP that enters the Portal every day (more specifically: hour)). The style of drawing is a bit too much 'windows paint', but it is a good starting point. Keep improving, and keep up the good work!
Red-Communist responds:
I said it wasn't a super reference from the technical viewpoint. When you are watching StarWars, you don't ask yourself if the laser sword really exists ;)
Fun
+You know your stuff for the most part
+Well drawn and smoothly animated
+Fairly well done voice acting
+Good plot
-A little unrealistic
-Floppies? Must be a hacker from the late 80's. :P
-A hacker using windows?
-But at least he had Unix tools too
Red-Communist responds:

not bad for a first movie, but not NG quality
Problems:
1.Work on your spelling, and english in particular

4. Learn more about hacking, it seems like you have been playing Uplink a bit too much.
5. Story itself doesnt make much sense. Flesh it out more.
Overall good work for a first try, if you keep at it we may see you on the top 100.

2_1: it's just a typing error, already corrected; but you're right I must work on the spelling as I'm not an English speaking person by nature
2_2: there's much of text and most my friends don't know English very well, they need more time to read everything
2_3: don't agree, IMHO it's a pretty good "home-made" soundtrack, and it's a "one speaker show" :)
2_4: what's Uplink?
2_5: I don't think so, there are lots of senseless psychotropical toon which often win
