Sticks are hard to have a point. A guy gets owned. Thats it/
Not bad for the second try!
For a second flash, this is pretty good. Sound effects were used in places quite well, but lacked an overall theme to match the environment.
Stick movies are very hard to stand out from the crowd since there are many others, and as such those that do stand out are exceptional. Compared to the others, you will probably know yourself it doesn't stand out.
However, that's not to detract from your efforts. You did something you wanted to do, worked at it and got a finished product, so be proud.
I've never tried flash and therefore don't know what difficulties there are. However, the animation was fairly smooth. Transitions between the "hero" were useful, as so many movies use the same main character throughout the sequence. Adding a pinch of humour at the end left the flash on a high note, good choice. The stage destruction was fine as well.
Tips for improvement -
.. Add some detail to the backgrounds - keeps the viewer's attention
.. Have a stab at introducing a music theme in your next submission
.. Make something other than a stick movie ;)
.. Try to come up with new ways to perform actions
And above all, enjoy it while you learn. Best way to progress is to have fun while you do it!

Its hard to make a non stick animation and have fun. lol.
By the way, Flash is really hard. Especially when you make it look smooth. You have to redraw the scene every time they need to move. U need to draw the stick figures, so vice versa, you would need to draw the real people frame by frame. Ill have a crack at the 'real person' animation.
P.S. my animations ar always too short to have music!
thanks for the reveiw I really appreciate it.
Formula for Newgrounds success...
Make stick...
Stick moves fast...
Stick hits other sticks...
Sound effects...
And stir...
XxMercsxX responds:
I dont see you making any better animations
SO SHUT THE HELL UP
WANKER!
Nice
I liked it, I will vote five and score 10 :)
Make more or your talent will go to waste
XxMercsxX responds:
Uhh nobody else likes the whole 'Stick people' thing.
I tried madness but they have crosses for faces. I cant animate real people. SO i guess i dont have much of a choice.
Could've been way better
Not bad, but absolutely too short. Make it at least 2 minutes long next time. The animation was pretty good, but you could've made it a lot better, and i find those stick fighting movies really boring if they don't have any blood. You could also add more special effects, some weapons and some special powers, still a good attempt, but there's a lot of things to improve on.
XxMercsxX responds:
guns are hard to do with sticks. There was another 30 seconds before the flash started with a shootout, but the animation was crap so I cut it out.
IM NOT DOING A 2 MINUTE LONG REAL-PERSON ANIMATION WHERE PEOPLE HAVE 'SPECIAL POWERS' thats kinda gay. Reminds me of that really weird show Dragon Ball Z. They shoot lights and stuff... I dont get it. They just wanna hold the dragon's balls?
Anyway, thanks for the reveiw but Id rather read strum jockey's points rather than give my 'heroes' powers. Plus, its the animation that counts, not the amount of blood. These kind of stick animations need to look smooth, not blood red...
