OMG u guys are going to easy on them
Look guys I was expecting so GRADE A Stuff but this was just plan bad, instead of sprites try artwork becuase the ripped sprites for some characters or yet all characters are horrble ok try harder next time and theres no blood on melee thats what makes it cool
Its funny because it sucks.
You took a perfectly good game and turned it into crap using your terrible animation skills. Then when people try to help you improve on it, you tell them their idiots. Well I will give you a full reveiw
Graphics:
You got a 2 because you sued well made sprites, not because of the animation in the movie. It's terrible choppy. Looks like it was done at 12 FPS, which it probably was. A good fps for sprites is 24.
And whats up with the edits?
Like dark link, you couldve easily just put a black tint on him, butit looked like you rotoscoped the sprites. This made the movie unbearable to watch, because you disgraced some good sprites as well as the game.
Style
What style? This isnt even a good animated movie. Its a bunch of unorginized tweening. Sprite movies take skill, and this took none of the sort. there was no style, the fights were un eventful, and some of the physics in this belied the game.
And for a sprite fight, it was very slow. Fix it
Sound
The sound was horrible. All the vocals made it terrible, and at some point, sound effects should be turned down. You got quality sounds in there, its how you used them that made them terrible. Dont overuse the sound next time, Add an effect in here and there, dont make it so that all you hear is marios high pitched voice thru all the movie.
so, fix it.
Violence.
At least there was someof this, but it was too slow. fix it.
Interactivty
good job on making a function menu and completly ripping off of Sprite Bros Melee Preloader idea. but still, menus can be a bitch, so 7.
humor.
its funny because its bad.
When have I called someone an idiot? All I've said was Flash by Whoever:
-none-
That's not calling someone an idiot in my understanding.
Also fyi, it was done in 24 fps, and you shouldn't rant on me for another user's part. Please don't go bitching about this responce and PM me because you'll just be ignored. :D
Nothing short of a bad movie
Let's leave a good critisizing review, shall we?
Graphics: Mostly they (the sprites) were overtweened and blurry, so I didn't really notice any true pixelated glory. You may want to try your hand at drawn movies for a few months before coming back to collaborations, so as to make sure you have a good sense of quality work.
Style: Style? I'm sorry to say this, but sprites are overused. Sure, there are a few good spriters out there, but unfortunately you haven't yet reached their standards.
Sound: You actually did OK finding sounds here, so it seems I won't be able to give much critisism on the subject. You may, however, want to add a little more variation to the sounds rather than "OWOWOW" and other such generic sprite sounds.
Violence: Well, I must say it was violent, but needlessly so. You may want to add more variation to the fighting and keep us from falling asleep.
Interactivity: Well, you have a menu, preloader, and scene select, but other than that you can't expect much out a movie. Not much critisism to give here...
Humor: Not funny, so you may want to add a little more humor if you plan on getting a higher score in the portal; NGers love humor.
Now if you're displeased with my review, don't go bitching about me not worshipping every little second of this movie. You've got potential, so if you don't give up on your animation, you'll soon be up on the frontpage (well, maybe not TOO soon). Good luck with that, anyway.
Finally a good critical review. Thanks I'll take keep in mind your advice.
pretty bad
yeah this was... pretty horrible...
Sprites sucked
could u have used somethin else beside sprites
