Reviews for "The Ballad of CrippleKane"

Entertaining and very well made

What a great flash. The style was great, and definitely one of the highlights of it. It reminded me heavily of Samurai Jack with a somewhat grainy texture layered on top. The use of warm colors was used very well to convey the western atmosphere. While at times I thought the animation looked a little sloppy, they were so few that it's hardly worth mentioning. Most of the time the animation was crisp and clean. The synching with the song was perfectly done, and it and the animation played off each other beautifully.

Sometimes (even though it fit with the style) the flash seemed to skip a few seconds forward, such as after the first cop is shot in the bar, of after they see the train tunnel approaching. The only real gripe I have with these parts is somehow the main character manages to get by the police both times, which I'm not sure would be physically possible. Both the menu and the credits also captured the theme of the flash very well, especially the credits, which were very well put together and though out. The character designs were very entertaining, as were the backrounds. I've always been a fan of putting somewhat basic shaped characters against simple and smooth backrounds.

The shadow effects and details on the characters were minimal, but very effective. The very idea of a one legged cowboy is very entertaining, and well used within the flash. The only other complaint I have is that I thought you eased off on the blood and would have liked to see (even if they were toned down versions) animations of the three officers dying, instead of it just flashing out before they were shown. That's just a personal preference, though, and in no way takes away from the flash. Overall, wonderful, I enjoyed the entire thing so much, and have watched it multiple times. You truly went the extra mile to make this a complete package, and it was well worth it.

Maaaaddd!!!!

Great look, nice sound. I like the way you put together all the elements to create a beautiful and enjoyable piece. I could see a lot of effort went into the credits too. Keep doing your thing.

wild wild west!

Loved the song but I the menu music ROCKS!!!!!
"If you want to shot shot dont talk.."

.!

Cliche Western but...

So at first I thought it was going to be crappy. However, I liked it. The music drew me in while he was walking through the saloon. Then the action had me stay until the end.

The funniest part was the detachable leg which fell off while they were riding the other way on the train. When he pulled the leg of with his rope his expression was great.

I love the silhouette of Cripple Kane at the end it was a nice touch. The credits were well-put together. The whole flash was a great action western scene which is what I think you were aiming for. 5/5 Great Job!

Super Super Super Super AWSOME!!!!!

thats the best old west flash i had ever see before!!!!
