Reviews for "Engineered"
Exilent
This was a nice story and very creative. Heart warming and heart trenching. The style beyond anything i have seen in flashes. I hope that you make more cartoons about these creatures in that world I would look forward to it. Your creative mind amazes me.

graphics- Nice blend of colours( gradients) etc etc they fitted the animation perfectly
style- Very interesting and hope to see more of it in the future
Sound- although very little and quiet i thought it went well with the movie
Violence-very mild only occurs at certain points
Interactivity-could be more
humor-none
Overall - You got a great review from me and i think you got one fro meveryone else also truly a magnificent animation very wel ldone i hope to see more of your work fairly soon
Its amazing.
For all you people , an abortion is the removal or expulsion from the uterus of an embryo or fetus, resulting in or caused by its death.
However , the story here was that this Alien mother could not have a baby.
When you see her licking that device it tells her the baby is either dead or she is not pregnant.
she tries several times to get pregenant but whit faliure wich eventually resulted that they would seek help at the Robot , from that point it becomes pretty obvious.
Annyways , an Awesome movie.
Very well done....but certainly not a fair anlogy

Superb graphics, exellent handling of the whole 'alien culture' with the strange gizmos. Also I thought the waiting room adding a kind of humorous texture-like something you might actually find at a abortion clinic, exept with weird alien vibes. Just generally a very well put together animation, that highlights the simalarity between our civilzation and theirs. I also think that your style has progressed since some of the things I've seen you do on other websites. I am a big fan conveying things visually, because I feel we have come to depend on verbal exchanges in practically all kinds of movies to signal any significant plot development and very few nervous hollywood exes, and newgrounders who want their animation/movie to appeal to everyone are challenging this stigma. You did a great with editing of tellin any audience that was paying attention of what was going on. The two minor details that i found somewhat irritating was that the aliens wore normal clothes, because everything else (the pregnancy testing device, etc.) was all aliened out. On the same note, I kind of think the alien sperm should have been different, because it almost too weird that they look exactly the same as human sperm.
I think that this is not exactly the conventional abortion situation since they are killing what are essentially fully grown babys with reletivily more value than tiny embros that are not distguishable from all other animals(which we eat without thinking[this is a good thing, I'm not a vegetarian]). Anyway also seems very different because its not as if the parents CAN'T take care of it, only that the dad dosn't like it. So if you are insinuating (which you probably arn't) that somehow this kind of thing is parallel to abortion, I would advise you to make those connections less lose (which may result in a less imaginative animation) because otherwise the argument isn't very strong.
