[Our Story: The Finale]

Overall, the flash was okay. I went back and watched the others. The plot was decent, and this tied things up well. Good job on that.
As for animation, there was little motion. Action is the best quality of animation, wherein the characters literally come to virtual life on the computer screen. It may take you a bit, but I would invest in learning how to create dynamic animations, beyond that of sprites or pictures of characters to serve as placeholders. That was my biggest complaint, truly.
The music was excellent. Kings of Convenience, perhaps? Be sure to credit them, I didn't see that.

All in all, keep at it. This wasn't perfect, but, from my perspective as a writer, you are an excellent storyteller. By the way, nice job leaning on the fourth wall -- breaking it, really.

Lare responds:

That's nice to hear and all, but the thing is, I'm lazy as hell. I have no choice but to stick with the lame animations.

[Mechanical Pulse]

I don't like giving a five star review. But, when the quality is this superb, I can't help but feel compelled to give such high marks. I loved the animation. From start to finish, the artistic quality was excellent and I really appreciated the use of black, white, and shading to create such an artful flash movie. I am a bit puzzled by the plot, but that's alright with me. I think you did well with matching the mood of the music -- when the music picked up, so did the action in the movie.
Taking a look at the music, that song was excellent. Perfect length and tempo for such an animation.

Overall, I was thoroughly impressed. If anything, would you mind explaining the plot (motivation, etc.)? I am a bit lost there.

Thanks!

OFF WITH IT'S HEAD

[RedHand 2 Short Preview]

This looks amazing man

Very excited for the new installment. The animation was top notch, how long til you release it?

Shayphis responds:

It'll be a little while before the release, still have much work to do =D

[Drugs, drugs, drugs!]

Hilarious, but not realistic

The crackhead wouldn't have enough willpower to pull down his pants and shit :P
Great animation and great voice acting, do more of these, please!

BillyNapalm responds:

Moar are on the way, my good man.

[Thieves Afoot]

Very eclectic!

The monsters resembled Cookie Monster, and that instantly made me respect their presence in the flash.
I loved the dark and unassuming humor, the entire piece took on a flow that really lends itself to the plot and resolution. I knew at the very beginning that something was going to happen to her feet...nice use of Chekhov's gun. The animation was so smooth, I was really impressed with the sheer quality of the movie. It was a pleasure to watch.

RatiganZombie responds:

Thank you very much, I really appreciate the review.

Avant-garde flash

Who woulda thunk it?
I really enjoyed this. It reminded me of a book I read as a kid, about a baby with an eyepatch who travels across the world. I forget the name of it, but somehow, this all made sense to me. I enjoy your style, you have a different way of going about the plot. Refreshing.

Carr77 responds:

Thanks! I am SO HAPPY that you liked it :)

[How to: Fly]

You should submit this to Howto.com

I'm pretty sure that people there would love to have this addition to their "How to Fly" article :P I enjoyed the animation style, as well as the swanky music in the background. It looks as if the angel was tapping his foot midair, perhaps that was intentional?
Great flash.

Carr77 responds:

Thanks :D

[Dilwyn Episode 1]

Potential

The humor is there, but the pacing is awkward and it takes away from flash. I chuckled at "YOU! BITCHFACE!" The absurdity is very tasteful, and I enjoyed the the voice acting and plot. If you could work on the pacing of the dialogue, as well as the transitions between scenes, you'd have a fantastic flash. I'll follow the series, I hope to enjoy more submissions.

CallumBowen responds:

thanks for the review! ill keep in mind about the pacing in the future :)
