Reviews for "Picoday Pinata Party"

Great animation..... Serious lag.

I loved the animation, it was fluid and well put together, but as people have reviewed before... It lagged HORRIBLY and skipped scenes all together for me. I am on windows 7 I have never had issues viewing a flash. I refreshed and put it at low quality (which is a last resort for myself) to make sure I took care of the issue and alas; that didn't take care of the lag.

I missed almost the entire fight, I could hear the sounds of the fight but was stuck on a frame while the fight sounds continued! And having it jump from one fight to another just kinda ruined it for me.

So here is my score for you:

Animation: 9/10 ; it was really fluid and simple. Could have used a bit more detail in the blood instead of making it look like one big red blotch on the ground, give it a bit of depth. But hey it was good from what I could tell of it...

Music: 9/10; the music choices were superb. But I think it was the music overload that made the animation lag, I noticed the fight sounds came through first and then the music. The animation however had a 15-30 second stall for each frame, that is if the frames didn't skip.

Overall score: 8/10; I liked how the animation looked, but the story seemed a bit off and lacking... Who were Pico and his friends rescuing? Why were they going through so much effort to defeat the villains to save one singular person? Little tidbits like that in the description would help viewers piece together the story and understand it more. Plus I docked some points off because of the lag. If it weren't for that lag, you would have gotten a better score.

Sorry if you see this as a flame, but I am trying to offer a bit of constructive criticism to you.

Zombie-Pimp responds:

yeah I got pretty lazy with the blood, it was more about getting the point across rather than trying to blow ppl away with really high-detail visuals for me. Thanks for your criticism and your compliments. I don't know what's going on with the lag, I don't get any on my computer :S

Good work

What does it have to do with Pico Day though? You sorta lost me there And I really enjoyed the first part the second bit was o.k. T think a pre loader would be nice and it was a very good tittle menu. But in the animation the music did not flow smoothly I found it switching too often.

Zombie-Pimp responds:

hm thanks for the constructive criticism man, glad you thought it was good

can be better

so foolish

Zombie-Pimp responds:

huh?

Awesome

I have just a few problems with this, what happened to pico and tom? Why did it show all there sons? What was so relevant about that part. Finnally the stupid sound effects on hulalaoo's part. If you don't have enough sound effects to cover the whole flash, then it will sound choppy and take viewers out of the imagery. It was only a couple of sound effects on certain parts that weren't that important. The animation was fluent, the music was awesome, and it was cool, but i have no idea what was supposed to be going on. ^^ cheers.

Great story and film here

~~REVIEW~~
ok so the loading time on this one was kinda big, not gonna complain too much on that but maybe there was some small stuff you could have cut out here and there to reduce the file and loading time, but anyways as for the flash its good i especially like what you did with the menu-screen, dripping blood, and great looking {FONTS} that are related to the flash itself, so nice job there, Wow the characters are very good nice designs, and the view shots and differant camera views was a nice touch, you really did put alot of effort on this one with some smooth and great animating, the {BLOOD} effects were great, and the overall flash was great, i can see why it was so big infile with everything that was going on, so in the end i liked it and was very impressed with the outcome, ao anyways great job on this.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Maybe some file reduction, other then that its a very good flash great story and awsome animating.

~~OVERALL~~
An epic tale with blood, and great animation, loved it
