Review #1000. YAY!

Wow, this reminds me a lot of my own Clock Day Submissions. You clearly have been stealing from me! SHAME ON YOU!

Anyway, happy and very belated Clock Day 2011.

I think this turned out better than the first episode. The voice acting is even better than in the first one, and now you also have some better animations. The quality of the flash is still poor, so you still have a lot of work to do. But you are improving and that's what counts in my book.

The sexual jokes may not be to everyones liking, but it's just a fact that we can't all have the same sense of humour.

Overall, some improvement compared to the first episode, but you still have a long way to go.

I'm glad that things seemed better in this episode, I always thought it was better. The main reason for the poor quality of things is because the program I used was so limited. I actually switch over to flash in episode 4 so things get a little better then. And I get what you're saying about the jokes. Some people like them, most people hate them. I still like them, but I've grown a bit since this and I tend to not have a lot of sexual jokes in my stuff now. Thanks for the review and I hope you watch/review the others as well!

Well, what can I say. The quality of this is poor, and you know that already. In fact, it is so poor that I couldn't even watch it to the end. Also, the animations plainly suck... but you know that too.

But if I look past bad quality and poor animations, I see a flash that I would consider at least decent. Maybe not Front Page material, but I've seen far worse submissions than this one. What I like the most here is the voice acting. The voices are pretty clear and everything can be understood just fine. Another plus point is, that you have different voices (ie voice actors) for the characters. This helps a lot to get who is saying what. Another good thing is that you put sound effects into the flash.

So, overall the animations and the quality are bad, but the rest is good. I hope that you can put the animations and quality problems behind you in future episodes.

Don't worry, the animation gets a lot better starting the 4th episode, and is actually pretty decent in the 5th. I'm still working on the 6th episode and since then I have learned so much more about animation. Thanks for the review!

Well, I have to admit that I didn't follow this series too closely in the past few months, so I only get about half of what is going on here.

But I think it's amazing that you managed to keep this series running for so long. It's also amazing to see how much the quality has improved from the first episodes. The graphics are much better now, much more clear. And you also found a very distinctive drawing style. When I see the preview image in the flash portal or on the forums, then I don't even have to read the title or the author name to know that it's another "MistyEntertainment" flash. I think this pretty cool.

This flash is a pretty good music video. You chose a nice song for this one. It fits the story of the flash perfectly. And you also did some pretty good scenes for this as well. Showing all the emotions the former king is going through, how he is sad at first, but learns to enjoy life later on... but then decides that it's best to go back.

Overall: Very enjoyable flash and a nice song as well.

Thank you for the in-depth review. I'm glad you liked it.

This is an entertaining flash. The background graphics are pretty good. The characters could use some more work, though. Even though they are not "badly drawn", they do look more like South Park characters... which would be ok, if you'd aim more for a South Park like cartoon. But judging from the content of this short, this isn't supposed to be like SP.

Anyway, the background noises are a good addition. They are not too loud so they drown out the voices of the main characters. But it's not too quiet either.

The voices sound a bit too thin and I think sometimes there are some static noises. But overall, the voice actors do a good job. Maybe all you need is a better mic.

Aqlex responds:

I am extremely influenced by South Park, and it's very clear that a lot of my work pays homage to it. BUT, at the same time, I consider my work to be a less... less crude version of South Park? One that is for a younger audience, and one that is more "real" than the somewhat insane world of South Park. So I definitely try to both be like South Park and different than South Park in the ways that you mentioned.

Thanks about the background noises, I definitely spent some time trying to get them to just the right levels.

About the voices, I've gotten new equipment since this episode was recorded, so I hope that my audio will already be improving!

Thanks for the review =)

Very nice flash. I really like the story here. Also the short length doesn't bother me at all. Sometimes you just don't need many words or scenes to tell a story.

The story itself is simple, but it's just true nevertheless. Two people fall in love, their love grows, their love changes... after a while, their love grows cold... but some new love can develope from that.

The music and sound effects are good addition to the flash. It just adds that little extra to it. Without sound or music, the story would be the same. But I guess I wouldn't like the flash as much as I like it now.

Good work!

Thank you!
I'm really glad if you enjoyed this :))

A flash about two monkeys teasing each other. Doesn't sound too interesting at first, but I think this turned out pretty well. I especially liked the sound effects. The "mario jumping sound" was a nice touch and the voices of the monkeys are pretty cool.

I also liked the background sound effects. Even though this is just a minor detaiI, I think details like this seperate "poorly made" flashes from "well done" flashes.

However, the pacing of the flash isn't that good. I felt that the teasing was going on for too long. Also, the animations need some work as well. As far as I can tell, most of it was done with simple tweens, which doesn't look too good.

Overall: The flash is enjoyable to watch, but it needs some more work for the animations and on the pacing of the story. I think, if you can spend more than 5 days on a flash, you can come up with some pretty cool stuff: Flashes, that aren't just "enjoyable" but "awesome". :)

ArcadeHero responds:

Thanks so much! I see! :)

I don't know what to make of this. I watched three shorts and while I found all of them entertaining in one way or another, I'm highly confused, haha.

Also, I think the shorts are too depressing. While the bunny short shows some kind of morbid "Happy Tree Friends" humour, I found the third short with the plant was very depressing. A plant struggling to live, but getting a hit on the "head" every time... wow, not something I could watch every day.

Anyway, the presentation is very well done. And I also like some more serious flashes on Newgrounds.

Surn responds:

Again, it looks like I was a little too vague with the meaning here (although it may help to "reposition" your "view" once you've figured out the mechanism). I'm glad you found enjoyment from it, despite how depressing it was.

Oh yes, the old theme of "becoming young again" (and of course the theme "skipping your childhood to become old"). It's not a very original theme, but it still is an interesting idea for a movie.

I like that your take on the whole situation is a bit more on the serious side. It's like the old saying goes: "Be careful what you wish, you just might get it". Joe wanted to become young again, because he thought he would be happier. But it turns out that he is even more depressed with his "new life" than he was with his old. Should be interesting to watch how this will turn out once you finished the second part.

Another thing I liked was, that you did put in some jokes here and there. It's a good relief from the serious undertone of this submission.

Overall: A good movie and I recommend everyone to watch it.

MistyE responds:

Thank you very much for the review!

Again, the animations are pretty rough and the graphics aren't that good. But again this flash convinces because of it's content and not because of "eye candy".

I like the story here. It's pretty funny and I had to smile at the end. So I guess your mission is accomplished. :)

The musical choice is again pretty good. The music fits to the flash, so you've done a good job here.

Overall: The second movie from you that I review and I could just copy paste my other reivew here, because I think it holds true fro both flashes: The story is nice, the music is good, but there are some things missing (like, a more fluent animation, additional sound effects, etc.).
I surely hope that you will continue to upload flashes, because I think you have a talent for short stories.
