So at first I simply wanted to rebel because I saw the narrator as an authoritarian figure but then I realised that maybe he was trying to guide me. But I stuck to my beliefs and rebelled and the world filled with the colour, as if I was doing the right thing. But several times I thought that all the narrator wanted was the best for me.
This game is seriously open to interpretation in my eyes but it's an engaging, thoughtful little project that really spoke to me.
Firstly, the voice acting is weak and the quality was so bad it actually made me want to stop watching. If that had been improved on it would have been a much more enjoyable little animation, the writing was actually quite good, and I chuckled at a few of the jokes. I would structure it more though, it started to feel repetitive and boring by the end.
Spend more time on your artwork and animation, no matter how good the jokes are, watching mouths move in an otherwise mostly still picture is incredibly tedious. Make the characters more detailed and have them move around a bit, interact with the environment or move from area to area.
Overall I'd have to say you have the potential to be great at this, but spend a lot more time learning how to do it, studying successful flash movies and preparing to make your own, redraft your ideas again and again and have people read them until you're completely satisfied and do the same with artwork and animation. The more time you spend on it, the better it will be.
That was really addictive. Completed it in a couple of hours. Fairly easy if you just keep at it. And it never really bored me. Though my wrist is a bit tired.
Like at first i didn't think i liked it cause i didn't laugh and i know it was supposed to be amazing. but im sleep deprived so i feel like that WAS AWESOME AND I WANNA HUG IT. GO YOUUU
I suggest you sit down after making a flash and just go through it, thinking of ways beyond your skill that you can improve it. then learn what you need to learn and keep trying arduously til you get it. Then it will be a kick-ass flash you enver though possible.
look i'm sorry but that was the most annoying animation ever. I didn't like the graphics. The voice acting was terrible (and i speak japanese so i know thanks, no prejudice) and it just generally pissed me off.
One.
If it's comic, i suggest you have aviolent action from the girl to the boy. Like she smacks him the face or something, and he flies to the moon. Something ridiculous and therefore funny like that. It's been widely used and really works.
Oh and you stole that whole music with thw words thing after number 10 from the decline series. I remember it clearly lol.. but that's not that bad.
Overall.. not bad. But try and spice it up a bit. Oh and sort out your art work.. Spend more time making it look good.

It's a start.
Okay here's my input.

Hmm
Okay not bad. I assume you're new to flash.
I suggest you sit down after making a flash and just go through it, thinking of ways beyond your skill that you can improve it. then learn what you need to learn and keep trying arduously til you get it. Then it will be a kick-ass flash you enver though possible.
Oh and maybe spend some time on a loading screen?
but congrats.

Go Critic, Use Criticism!!
Okay YOU SUCk
I know it was a quickie. But that could've been way longer. You also could've done more animating, the flying through space thing got a little boring.
But i loved it. soo random. Yet i good little conversation.
Though some bits trialed off a bit and you didn't reinforce the joke.
Still good. Needs some touching up on sound and animation.

Hm.
Annoyingly tedious.
But fun to play.
Good effort, if a little bland. There's nothning to make it unique and make it stand out. like alien hominid.
But it's very well made and fun to play.
Cheers,

Very nice.
The beginning was a bit shoddy and i had my doubts. You could've done something about it saying 'Resident Evil' and not Resident Earthbound.
But the actual animation was good, nice use of sprites. On the whole i loved it.
Cheers
