Hi, Barry Scott here asking whether you have problems with limescale, rust, ground in dirt. Bit of a challenge for some house hold cleaners, but not, for CILLIT BANG!

It's a very good tutorial. The text is easy to read and you explained everything very well. I also thank you for not including any music, as music in tutorials tends to get boring very quickly. ;)
I missed some kind of menu here. It would be nice if I could choose from a menu which part of the tutorial I want to see. That way I don't have to click through the whole tutorial if there's just one topic that I'm interested in.

Hmm that might just be an idea xD. Didn't think of that. Thanks.

It's a very nice collab with great music. The graphics aren't always that good but they are at least effective. The animations are also quite effective. I could see what was going on and that is what counts, right? ;)
The change overs from one part to an other part could use some work. Maybe a fade out when one part end and then fade in to the other part. That way the endings won't sound so abrupt.

The story of this is bit wired. I didn't know what was going on there. Ok, this is Epdisode 2, maybe I should have watched episode one before this.
The music was very nice and fit well to the flash. Also the sounds you chose were very good.
The graphics could need a clean up, as they looked somewhat blurry from time to time. The sprites could look a bit better, too. None of the sprites had a real face.
I liked that you had a different text colour for each character, so it was easy to see which character said what sentence.
But I think you should use subtitles here. A black background and white text works best. You can then use a small picture of each character to show which line is said by which person.

Funny and short. Very nice flash.
The characters look a bit odd, but at least you have your own style for the characters. Not overused stick figures or some sort of locks/clocks/whatever.
The voice acting is done great. The voices are easy to understand, even without subtitles.
The story was short and funny and the ending gave me a good laugh! :)
I found one flaw in your flash: The "Play" button was only clickable on the text, not on the spaces in between the letters. Maybe you can change that to a "real" button to make your flash even better. ;)

This was a very nice flash. You made good use of Speakonia here and the subtitles are very helpful for understanding what was said, too.
I liked the story. That "flash within a flash" idea is very interesting. That little advertisement during the middle of the flash was funny, too.
However, you should change the title to "Wir sind Legionen", as "wir sind legion" isn't correct. "wir sind" needs the plural of "Legion" which is "Legionen".
So yeah, change the title. ;)

It's an interesting game with a very original concept. I don't think I played something like this before.
At first the setup is a bit unusual, but one can get the hang of the game pretty quick. I think the view that the radar allowed me was a tad bit too small. Maybe you can give the player a bigger radar at the beginning and then decrease the radius of the circle for later levels.
The delay of the radar is a good addition and it works very well. Also the timer in some levels is a good idea, as it is an extra motivation for the player to finish the levels as fast as possible.
The graphics are quite nice, but I think they can be polished a bit here and there. Some 3D-Elements would be very nice, for example.

Well, the speakonia voice is slower, but also a lot deeper, makeing it as hard to understand as before... speakonia really isn't the tool to use if you want to have decent sounding voices.
The graphics in here are quite bad. And I'm not talking about the stick figures, as those kind of figures can look pretty funny - and they do look funny in your flash, because you also work with facial expressions here. I'm talking about the images that moved across the screen. That always looks very bad and as if you didn't put any effort whatsoever into your flah.
You should try and draw these things yourself, even if they may look crappy. It's better than some images moving around the screen.
I like the random storylines you come up with. Randomness tends to be very funny and I can get a good laugh or two out of things that are randomly thrown together.
I'm interested in part 4, as you've said that you will stop using speakonia and start using subtitles. Lets see how that works out!

I liked that flash. Showing your favorite PMs didn't sound too exciting at first, but I liked what you made of this idea. Your comments where really funny and the PMs where too.
I have to say, I liked the idea of NintendoMadness (where the hell is he anyways?), but I can imagine that it can be really annoying if people come up with flash ideas if you have so many ideas yourself already.
The link to the youtube "video" where you uploaded the entire recording session was a good idea. It shows that you put a lot of effort into your voice acting.
Oh, and that sleeping 33 outside the window was really funny! ;)

Yeah, I wonder what happened to NintendoMadness as well. :(

It's a good flash. You managed to visualize the music video (I mean the real one, made by Rammstein) quite well. Also, those "Happy Tree Friends"-like characters fit quite well here.
The animations are lacking quality a bit, but overall they are ok.
However, you may want to change the title of this submission to "Du Riechst So Gut", as you've made a spelling error there. Right now the title means "You hand over so well"... doesn't make that much sense now, does it? ;)

Not much effort put into this. Just some music and a mildly funny text. Would be much better if you'd actually had some graphics in here, or even better if you'd animated the whole story.
Right now it's just plain boring.
Oh yeah, and it's "thief" not "theif". If your flash doesn't contain anything but text, at least use a spell checker.
