I'm going to be honest with you.
There barely was anything to see in the Flash. You only used the paint bucket tool on the tank and made a very ugly background, with the paint bucket presets.

The animation was only three seconds long or so and I couldn't understand a thing. The text just Flashed, they barely moved and the special effects were slow and ugly.

You really have to throw this away and start over. Learn, practice, and you might make something good.

Clock Day FTW!

The day that even the worst animations make it past judgment. This had worst quality then my first submission that was blammed, which was simply a Mario running across the screen looped.

~ Animation/Graphics ~

I'm guessing this was made in pivot? Or pivot and flash, or maybe it was just flash. Well the animation part is impossible to give you a review on because it moves too fast. Looked like if it did move slow that it wouldn't be anything too great to look at though. One of the things that I did catch was that you used a white background all the way through. Why not make a more detailed background next time. Something like green grass, trees in the background, etc..

~ Story/Content ~

Well if this was made in flash then you need to stretch the frames out a bit longer. That's the only thing that I can recommend here as I couldn't see what was going on in the flash to give you an opinion on the content of it.

~ Audio ~

Was none. No room for it actually, but since you figured out how to make it longer you should try to find some audio that fits it.

~ Overall ~

Happy Clockday.

Thank B for Clock Day.

Score: 0 / 10
Summary: Thank B for Clock Day.
Review: This is not good enough. At all. Had it not been for clock day, this wouldn't have passed.

It's hard to review, as everything went so fast. Slow it down! As far as I can tell, the stickmen were simple, and the animations were horrible.

You should try to make it longer, add more frames, slow it down, draw something better, and animate it. use tweens if you have to, but preferable, fbf.

Not much to say, really

The filesize of this movie says it all, really. I have text documents on my computer that are larger and better quality than this piece.

There is little animation to speak of and no plot seemed evident - it's really difficult to get into some sort of plot in a flash that short.

You need to work on your animation skills, giving them a chance to actually be seen, so move the arms and legs of the characters, possibly taking some inspiration from such good stick fight movies as Xiao Xiao, where the characters run around and do crazy flips etc, combined with some spectacular moves.

A music track could help, along with the inception of perhaps a voice or two, for these characters, but maybe that is getting a little ahead of us.

Too fast

Can't say much about this flash as it went by in a flash (pun intended). Turn down the FPS or make use of a "next" button, so we could actually read the text and see what's going on there.
Or strech out the scenes on more frames and not just one.

From what I could make out, the graphics are below average (just sticks, no backgrounds) and animtations aren't good either. Try to work on your drawing skills because stick men are overused and you need to come up with an awesome stick movie if you want to impress people with it.

Also work on your animation skills. Tweens should only be used very carefully, it just looks unnatural if peoples arms and bodys tween around the screen.
