[Adolf Hitler: ATWI80D 07]

\m/

Sorry to break it to you Bahamut, but England is not a country. It's just a part of Great Britain! :P

Anyway, Hitler in front of Big Ben with a top hat and a monocle. Very nice! I'm sure he enjoyed his time there. And hopefully he read some of the great headlines of the "Sunday Sport", like "Hitler was a woman!" or "World War II Bomber Found On Moon". I'm sure Hitler laughed his ass off if he did read those.

AfroUnderscoreStud responds:

It's a country, just not an independent one.

[Adolf Hitler: ATWI80D 06]

A windmill is a nice representation of Holland... I mean the Netherlands. :) Some tulips would have been nice, too... or even better, Hitler meets "Frau Antje". But I doubt than anyone outside of Netherlands and Germany knows who "Frau Antje" is anyways. :(

AfroUnderscoreStud responds:

I don't know who she is, but the name somehow sounds vaguely familiar.

[A Thousand Two Frames]

\m/

I like this one a bit better than "A Thousand Frames", as most of the pictures here are a bit slower. So it's not that hard anymore to follow the animations.
However, sometimes you had some text on the screen, but it went by awfully fast. So I didn't quite get what you've written there...

I liked the reappearance of the "underwater scene" that you already used in your previous flash.

The "easter egg" (that horrible sound track ;) ) is... well... weird. ^^

blackcat2000 responds:

Yup... I certainly learned quite a bit (Or at least I'd hope so!) from my first fbf experience, so slowing it down was a priority with this one :D
With the text, I tried to have it so it was readable... When I watched it I thought it was, but maybe not to someone who isn't expecting text... I'll keep that in mind.
The reappearance... I was gonna have it go on for longer, but I figured that a nice cameo would be appealing to those who watched the first one too :)
Glad you erm... enjoyed... no... that you... hmm... found the track? :P
And thanks for the review!

[A Thousand Frames]

\m/

Whoa, that moves REALLY fast. I felt I was watching some DVD on fast forward...
Try turning the fps down a bit to make the whole thing move a little bit slower (or add even more frames to it. But more frames = more work ;) ).

Like Bezman already suggested, you should try to stick to a rough theme and narrate something around that theme.

blackcat2000 responds:

Heh... I'm full aware about more frames=more work, and i did at times, when I felt the speed had gone too far. I agree fully though, that it was a tad fast.
A rough theme... I'm making a new flash, that i am gonna try to spend ages on, and try to make it have optimum awesomeness... I'ma try to have:
Walking cycles
A story
A basis
Sounds (lots!)
Puns galore! :P
Other awesome things
Thanks for your review!

[The Beelion]

\m/

A quite nice flash with a good poem and a funny ending.

I liked the fact that you made use of subtitles here. That way it's much easier to understand the "narrator". Speaking of the narrator: The sound quality is a bit lacking while you're reading the poem. As if you were sitting in a box or something like this...

Also, while you are reading the poem there isn't much happening on the screen. Just the beelion flying and flying and flying... you should add something more to it, like some funny stuff that is happening in the background.

The ending is a bit confusing for me. What was going on there? What are those creatures the beelion is eating there?

blackcat2000 responds:

Subtitles, I figured were necessary, as I noticed I *cough* I mean the narrator *cough* said some things wrong... like "snide" :P The sound quality... it's probably because i was recording it in the box... known as my room.
As for things in the background, how? Why? I mean... I didn't put anything? That's a brilliant idea, and i hate myself for not thinking of it ;) I must've been distracted with distorting sounds and other animations... heh... *Spoilers ahead! :O*
The ending... I had this awesome idea for making a short track, and flipping between pictures, so I did it. And I thought of the ideas on the spot. Whatever it was, basically the monsters get pwnt, and the beelion gets the trophy... so... yeah... that's the story :P
Thanks for da review!

[Resident Merchant]

\m/

Graphics and animations are very good in this flash. Sometimes the characters look a bit strange, but it fits well into the comical theme of this submission.

The voice acting is done great, only the speaker of Ashley could have spoken a tad bid louder. She was hard to understand sometimes.

The story here is quite funny, even to me. And I haven't played any Resident Evil since "Code Veronica", heh...

[Newgrounds is Down]

\m/

I know I reacted like that when I wasn't able to hang around here all day. Good that everything is now back to normal and I can waste my life here again.

Heil responds:

youre life is wasting away man

[Adolf Hitler: ATWI80D 04]

\m/

La Tour Eiffel by night. It's a good picture and quite different from the pictures one can normally see as they all show it by day. So it's good to see a picture taken by night here.

Hitler looks quite fancy with that Beret. Hopefully he also enjoyed his Baguette he bought.

AfroUnderscoreStud responds:

Everyone looks sexy in a beret.

[Adolf Hitler: ATWI80D 03]

\m/

Ice cream and pizza, what else does a man need? Very nice.

I think Hitler should have met Mussolini while he was in Italy, you missed out on a good chance here.

AfroUnderscoreStud responds:

I decided not to include anyone other than Hitler in these flashes, as I wanted them simply to focus on where he was. I think I made the right decision.

[Adolf Hitler: ATWI80D 02]

\m/

Hitler in Switzerland. I think he never went there when he was still alive, but you placed him in front of the Matterhorn, which is a nice idea.

What was he holding in his hands, though? Was it a pair of skis?

Hitler looks awfully pixelated in this flash, but that's okay. We all know how he looks like, I guess.

AfroUnderscoreStud responds:

Yep, a pair of skis.

The quality of Hitler improves eventually.

Looks like you're finally getting those responses I promised I'd get round to soon a long, long time ago. Some of them anyway. ;)
