Reviews for "The Promise of Home"

Nice message....

...but still after all the years have gone buy, the scars of the second great war still haunts us and those that lived it are all but gone and the nightmares are left to the elect and thru it all the world is slowly turning its head.....and a holy war now rages....a war that never ended with the second great...the war still rages on....eighty years now and going strong, world war two never ended.

...

Interesting story. A little too mushy for me, but it definitely makes you think about life and life's obstacles and stuff like that. Anyways, good job.

Sad story...

That was a very sad story, if it was true. I really didn't like the square-like and badly animated graphics though. That pretty much ruined the whole thing.

Touching

It was quite touching indeed, but there were some problems with it.
Your animations techniques and drawings needs a lot of improvement
(espacially face expressions) and therefore just sorta negated the things you were trying to make us feel. The boy seemed to smile when he was crying next to his dead mother and that just broke the whole moment.
The concept is great, but you really need to improve your animation and drwaing to make it as strong as it should be.

Excellent idea, mediocre execution

The main problem with this flash is the animation, or, I should say, lack thereof. Basically, it's a bunch of pictures with a narrator. That's tolerable...barely. However, you just couldn't content yourself with that, so you decided to make stupid, repetetive animations every once in a while. When the flash was in animation, I couldn't take it seriously, it just looked too horrible. I really like the story, but here's the thing: You made it really long, and when you make something long you have to find a way to keep the viewer's attention. Since, like I said before, this was a bunch of poorly animated pictures with a narrator, there was nothing to do that. It's pretty obvious that you put in a lot of stuff just for the sake of making it longer, too. This did give me an emotional reaction though, and I enjoyed it. I hope that next time you come up with something like this, you can back it up.
