I like the effect you did in the background. Pretty cool

Pretty solid.

The animation was good, but I there are three reasons for it.

1. It was short.
- Didn't take much time to make it, I'm assuming. Not much of a plot behind it.
2. The animation was okay.
- Except for the blue stuff. What was the blue stuff?
3. It wasn't juvenile.

I think with more work, actual swordplay even, or just some basic plot progression, I think you'd have a decent flash submission on your hands.

not bad

you are pretty good at the animation, but you shouldve had people fighting or something. i dont know what the blue was either though

Not bad.

Pretty smooth & The end was abrupt yes, But I can't really flaw it.

The only thing I felt was lacking. The blue from his face? Was that tears? Because:
1. If it WAS tears, then I think adding eyes would help emphasise this, giving it more emotion..
2. If it WASN'T tears, then I'm not going to be the first to wonder what it was? And again, a bit of emphasis can cut these questions right out.

BUT, I'm pretty sure it was, and that aside. I think it was a pretty decent test, More 'Sword'play would help also. :)

Look forward to more from you.

You passed the test!

I liked the end of the test. Try having people fight each other next time you have a sword test.
