Reviews for "DBZ- Goku Turns Evil Ep1"

Nice

Not sure why shenron would only have the power to grant 36 hours..... mind explaining in the following episodes maybe?

OLD293 responds:

In the actual series he can grant wishes, but their is always a limit to his powers sometimes. I was just re-enacting that, and the number itself is just random really. Besides, Goku being Evil permanently is not probable...and the time will catch up to him in later episodes.

Could change opinions of sprites animations

I thought this was a perfect example of how to make a sprite right. Even though people (such as I) generally feel that using sprites should get less respect in comparison to other flash makers, there is more to making a great flash than just the artwork.
The skills it takes to make a story clear and compelling is the same regardless of which medium is used to portray it. I found this clip really captured my attention, and left me wanting more. The music perfectly matched the scene, accentuating the feel of the story.
I must say, I would've preferred voice acting, or maybe less obtrusive and "prettier" subtitles. I personally feel there was a good balance of storytelling and action, so I hope you won't go over the top with action in the second episode and sacrifice story. There are hundreds of action sprites, but this has the potential to be something else completely.
(Side note: Though some commenters are saying that Shenron's 36 hours of Evil limitation is BS, I figure that Goku is pretty much the most good being in the whole Dragonball universe, so it's gonna take more than Shenron to quell that!!)
Total respect for you, Tactical. I don't know if any sprite will ever be a 10/10 rating... too much prejudice. But you might be able to change at least a few people's opinions on sprite animations.

OLD293 responds:

Wow, nice too see someone actually giving positive feedback while not being too negative at the same time. I'm workin on a test movie as I speak to up the action but I shouldn't sacrifice story in the next episode, hopefully. I'm no good at stories though, but I'll try my best to keep everything balanced.

Nice job!

The only thing i hate is the background moving so fast when they run or fly fast.

It makes me dizzy.

very impressive

i love the idea andstory it seems well thought of and well made
ile look forward to the next episode

Very Good

I thought it would suck because of the cheesy title, but I was very wrong. The animation was excellent, reminds me of Alvin-Earthworm a little. And dont get discouraged because its a sprite movie, spriting is harder to do than regular animating. The only bad thing was the FFVII music, its so overdone. And people will peg you as a fanboy, and you dont want that. Other than that, very nice work.

OLD293 responds:

I do like FF though, but I could care less what people think...especially over the Internet. The fighting style will change in Episode 2 though, it might catch some people off guard but it will look more like DBZ fighting so it should be good nevertheless.

Thx for the review and hope you stay tuned for Eps 2.
