Reviews for The One Layer Collab

[Migel]

4 for effort.

Everything was just nice animation funny song on background. Seen that stuff before a lot. Some authors better then than others etc.

Ehm the flaws.
- The whole concept. Ok first was i startled by this idea because it was suposed to be harder then normal flash and animators would had to find a another "refreshing" insight on the program. Then I gave it a go myself and found out that there were a lot of ways to cheat. And some of the effects of that were also similar to some of the effects in this movie.

- There was a bios but nobody explained in em how they managed to pull this off. Anyway some movies just looked like a tweened multilayer movies secretly copied to one layer, some movies used simple symbol usage and only a few actually tried something inventive.

*note that i have flashmaker 8 myself and am not familiar with later versions wich perhaps have a better way to make one layer movies.

nice

A pretty nice collab. Too bad only some parts are truly made the way they should be - in one layer, whilest others obviously are using symbols. Theres no point in making a one layer collab if youre using symbols.
You are, aren't you?

MarcyVF responds:

We userd symbols, yes, but only with one layer inside, of cource. It's not called the One Layer FBF Collab... :)

Only one layer?

This was a very mixed colab. My question is, How did you create a mask with only one layer? And symbols on top of symbols... That's layering... Nice try though. Keep at it and goodluck to everyone.

Really weak

It's sadly, but i think that "One Layer Flash" is just an excuse to show technically weak, and all the "ZOMFG" and "LOLZORZ" stuff, wich really starts to bore me.

Few of them was nice indeed, but why to put everyone in one layer? Personally it's like a jail for me. Why make work harder and get away the benefits of multi-layer animation? Beacuse of that everything here is very simple and primitive...

Even if you actually hit the frontpage, I still think your work was pointless, kinda pathetic. Kinda nice idea to show the noobs work to the masses..

WOW one layer!

That doesn't make up for the fact that 75% of the animations were shit. I know I sound like an asshole but did you even check the co-authors parts before you let them join? Some of them were allright. None of them were great and most of them (no offense) sucked. Hate if you want but I'm just telling the truth.
