*EDIT* Some parts got messed up when editing because of the size difference in production and product, sorry!

</~/*>> Note this is a sprite movie, if you do not like sprite movies and will not judge it based on quality, then please do not vote or view, if you aren't one of those people, please enjoy! </~/*>>

Sorry for the large file size! I compressed it as much as I could, I sacrificed some quality in the audio at parts which is why I left it where it is, thank you for understanding

Please note, I couldn't make a working preloader, so just click play when the movie is loaded, thank you!

Hey Newgroundites, this is my first attempt at an actual flash movie, I've dabbled in flash for over a year now, but this is my first attempt at a movie, so any criticism is appreciated and welcome! This flash has taken me nearly 2 months to create... just sayin!

This flash also has a lot of dialog, simply because it is the beginning of a series I am already in the process of making and it is setting up the story for the rest of the series

This movie is a depiction of the Megaman X series, but with my own story line...

Please enjoy and remember to leave a review!

Thank you

Great stuff

I was thinking this was an explanation of the Megaman X series, but apparently it's your own take. I was quite impressed at how well the sprites were drawn, especially the phoenix creature. It's interesting to know this has a good story going on with it, in addition to great action. It's great to see all the characters together even if it is a bit hard to understand what's going on. I'm glad this has a high rating even if it doesn't have that many views. I liked the little white buttons that looked like pills that you pressed.

thank you thank you, yeah, it isnt that big of a movie, but those who see it appreciate it i guess =] thanks for your review, part 2 is still in production, fine tunings and whatnot, look for it in the not too distant future!

Not Too Shabby...

Your sprite work is quite good, your storyline is exceedingly well. There are scenes with background music and scenes with no background music at all. This is where it becomes quite odd. Also the history text went by a bit too fast. All in all it was a decent flash and being your first was done quite well.

(none)

Anwich responds:

thank you very much, yeah, i realize the sound isnt great, but i really had no one to guide me on that, but i recently found a mucchhhhh better way to both cut down on filesize and have the music playing the whole time! thank you for your review!

Not too bad.

There's one thing that really bugged me. Never style mix unless you know what you're doing. 32 bit protoman with 16 bit X, no, just no. I didn't like it when Rigo did it in his X and Megaman series. Phantom looks very weird sizewise. You did a horrendous job resizing some of those sprites. But, it's not all that bad. I realize this is a fanmade storyline, but it just doesn't feel right. Heatnix and X moved way too slowly at the end. Practice some more before making another. Sorry. I love the megaman series and don't like seeing people screw it up.

Anwich responds:

yeah. sorry you thought i screwed it up, i didnt resize anything actually, and at the end it was a slowmotion ending for dramatic effect. thanks for your review

mmm

I would say this is pretty well done for a first time, but a personal thing that bugged me - X and Megaman are not the same entity. Im not sure if thats what you intended or not, what with him knowing who bass and protoman are, but it's your story.

Anwich responds:

yeah, yeah, i figured someone would catch that! the only thing is, megaman was nearly destroyed in my branch of the timeline, but you didnt find that out yet.. youll find out later! :)

hmm

well it isnt real original from what i see there isnt much change from the original "X" timeline but it was decently done for a sprite movie. maybe you should spice it up a little with the storyline, like try watching "Megaman X: One Last Breath" or alot of the other X sprite movies that have been made they are totaly original, it has potential but throw some twists into it and it could turn out to be a great series

Anwich responds:

thank you for your review! ill consider what you said, the whole storyline hasnt played out yet! if you promise youll watch the next one then youll see how its gonna play out! thank you again!
