"Decent -- but speed it up"

submission: Bank Rob

date: June 15, 2005

Mildly humorous, with some nice sight gags and social commentary. But you should work on editing -- each scene here could be about half as long. Funny stuff tends to work better when it's rapid-fire (Simpsons for instance)..

Good luck with future projects!

Score: 2

"Thank you for watching "Bamboozled""

submission: ghetto ghilligan's island

date: January 24, 2003

<sarcasm>

See, it's funny if you make the characters into absurd stereotype idiots who speak nothing but curse words and "ghetto" slang that hasn't been used by actual folks in the ghetto for two years. Also, it's funny when the black characters have big lips and are a bunch of stupid drunks.

</sarcasm>

Too bad your writing ability doesn't match your abundant technical skill.

Score: 1

"Sigh"

submission: K.

THIS is what gets 3.5 while my work languishes at 2.9?

Woe betide upon Newgrounds..

Score: 4

"Shows promise"

submission: Stick Stand-off

date: January 19, 2003

Some good images and it flows okay, but it's pretty rough and unrefined. Nothing wrong with sticks (or tweens), but it's jerky and the backgrounds are pretty weak. Also, make sure you have sounds for all your actions..

Score: 4

"Nice postloader"

submission: Consumed

date: January 19, 2003

Overall, this is kind of thin and insubstantial. I like the overall feel of it, but it's pretty unpolished. The sound cut off in the middle (maybe it's my setup). I really like the post-viewing interface..

Score: 3

"You obviously put some work into this, BUT.."

submission: Nuclear Warfare N. Korea

date: January 18, 2003

It just feels thin and insubstantial. I agree with the anti-Iraq-war message, but why focus on North Korea? Israel has much more recently said that it will use its nukes if Iraq attacks it. (And why would Iraq attack Israel? If it feels threatened by the US.)

Funny how much Beijing looks like Tokyo. =)

Kurt Vonnegut recently wrote a letter to the New York Times (which they chose not to publish). This is the entire letter:

"In the history of the world, only one country has ever had the audacity to use an atomic weapon."

Score: 3

"Good effort, but it's really sloppy"

submission: Legacy-the animated movie

date: January 18, 2003

The sound is okay and the story isn't horrible, but the graphics are very sloppy. Walls decorated with random squiggles, and everything looks like it was drawn very quickly. Slow down and put some more work into your artwork.

Score: 10

"Absolutely stunning"

submission: Qi

date: January 16, 2003

If this doesn't make it into the Newgrounds Top 10 of all time, then the people in this place don't deserve to call themselves a community.

I can't think of a single recommendation for improvement -- this is a truly breathtaking work of art.

Score: 4

"This has potential"

submission: {The Dance}

date: January 16, 2003

I like the graphic, but the movie doesn't really have a point, nor does it make me smile. The style is fluid, but I was pretty bored after a while.

Keep at it!

Score: 4

"This is great! <tbbppht>"

submission: The Legend of Eliza 3

date: January 16, 2003

This game is just like Final Fantasy -- except that it's not fun and has a really weak story and the subtext is that women should know their place.

The artwork is good, but the game play is tedious. I barely made it through the first battle before clawing my eyes out in boredom. I haven't made any games in Flash yet, so I'm sure it must be tricky. But know thyself: If you're not compelled to play the game yourself, what makes you think other people will want to play it?
