Reviews for "Leftovers"

Amazing

I ve never seen things like this before...man you really are a flash pro ;)

All my fives, take them

The best part about this flash is how I continually was impressed as it went on, until the credit roll when the culmination of the story blew me out of my seat. This flash gives me something to point to when arguing for flash as a progressive art medium, and basically does everything right.
The biggest criticism one could have with this flash is that it is "lazy," only requiring one scence and therefore little animation. I think this criticism is pretty godawful, both because simplicity in animation and less work does not necessarily beget a worse piece, and because I think the story is more powerful and effective when presented all in one shot. The actual graphics/ art is pretty awesome anyway, with the color selection and sepia-esque ambitions being especially notable. Everything flowed smoothly, and the style was just lovely in general.
On to the story. The primary criticism in this area is the length/ exciting content ration, which is a bit high for the more impatient of us. I think the protracted pace really accentuated the flow of the story, as it felt as if the flash was presenting us a picture of a life in one six-minute act. The story as a whole was pretty brilliant, discussing the absurdity of life and success in a way I've never seen in flash. The humor only helped this meaning come through, as the audience laughs at the the dead woman's bra being used for profit even after death, and the ridiculous improbibility of the couple's ambitions.
I was grinning at the beauty of this piece throught its duration, and can't see how I give it any less than a ten.

Such a s perfect way of showing each of the things in life and such. having chanses of having a double life, and leaving it for money, a life with someone to be with you, and now, nothing is left.
Just... leftovers.
