Boring

I was going through my past reviews and noticed I watched the second part to this when you first submitted it to the portal and I combined both in one review so I'm putting a review here.

It was really short, and kind of boring. There wasn't that much action. I think you should have combined this one in with the secon one. The limit on a flash submission size was well over the 1MB you would have needed to submit both as one flash, even back then in 2007.

For anyone reading this and is thinking about skipping the second part, I recommend you watch it, the second part is much better then this part is in my opinion.

Clever

This is very original, I don't think I've ever seen a card animation before. It was very good, animation was smooth. Good job.

A good idea!

Seems more original than some of the things here on NG... I like the chart used to show the course taken by the Diamond Empire. BUT GOSH a cliffhanger? If the 2nd epi weren't already out, it would have killed it for me. But I guess you planned to release them subsequently... Can't wait to see the plot thicken in Episode 2! Keep up the good work. =)

Cards of War....

I like this concept of inanimate objects coming to and leading a secret life when people aren't around. Also, the drama of a war between the cards (and especially the "cutting off" of the flash at that moment of conclusion) was really suspenseful.

Even if the animation/art had a....."basic" look to it, the things above makes me want to watch the next installment to see what happens next! NICE FLASH!

not bad.

Cool idea. Good animation, especially for your first flash.
