NekoMika's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[When Llamas attack]

Very cruddy

This was just bad all around. First off it doesn't stop on the frame that says "PLAY" on it. That and it keeps looping very quickly which quickly leads up to the viewer getting their heads to be hurting from how loud it becomes very quickly.

If you were to make another flash I would suggest using :gotoAndStop() and make it stop on the title frame. That and have the music simply play on the frames with the animation instead of doing it as you did so that viewers don't have to hear multiple layers of the same sound playing at once.

Overall, fix the frames up and spend more time animating and you might have a better shot next time.

[Rummy Raze]

Pretty good

The background was actually pretty awesome. The bubbles would get bigger and then shrink and keep repeating until the end of this short music video. Also what is the character's name anyways? They looked like they were having a lot of fun just randomly popping up all over the place here.

Also liked that variation of the song. I know the original is a vocaloid song but I can't remember the name of it despite having it on my iTunes (then again it's still in kanji instead of english at moment).

Overall though, very short, nice graphics. Excellent work here.

[D**k Attack]

Dick Attack

I actually would use Magickarp more if this was in its attack list of moves to learn. Then imagine the hilarity that would ensue when it evolved into a Gyardos with that same attack. The animation of the characters was nice. Hilarious how Blue just decides to walk away while Red sits there in shock and awe as his Magickarp prepares to use Dick Attack on him instead.

TomaMoto did really sound voice acting as well. Lastly got a good laugh at the "9999" damage to Magickarp which I am guessing is a reference to Final Fantasy which allowed up to that much damage unless you had the international releases. Very nice put togehter.

Hilarious.

[Splash Attack]

It never ends!!

I would say if you wanted an ultimate battle then it should have been a Metapod that only knows Harden against Magickarp who isn't so magical until it evolves!! the sprites were nice to see and funny how the voices were as well. Also had no idea trainers had cell phones in the game. Thought they could only have a Pokegear.

Interesting matchup though. Too bad no one will ever win if all Gary has is Ditto and Magickarp. Very funny joke as well. Good wokr here on this flash.

[The Llama Song]

Llamas!!! :D

Well this is quite random with the photos and all. Really like the person who did this song though because it's always a fun joke song to listen to that makes almost no sense.

Also this is an almost perfect loop if you had cut off a couple of extra frames then the loop would have been entirely perfect and enjoyable for hours on end as well!

[Geio Buri Hamachi]

Still awesome

I remember this being a meme with the vocaloids known as yellowtail early last year. It was so short but amusing and this proves that a year later it is still amusing to watch. Nicely drawn chibi and background as well from you.

Overall, this seemed pretty cool and I still like that song a lot so good job there with choice of song I suppose.

Good luck on future animations!!

[Cinderella_Reversion]

Animation is OK

I don't really see anything happening here side from her laying on that wood bench looking sad while holding her dress. The wind blows some leaves her way while she lays there sad. The song was fitting I guess and the preloader seemed cool to me since it was all kanji instead of english.

However I had no idea when to press the heart since there was no way of knowing if the flash was fully loaded or not.

Not bad, just fix the preloader.

[Mike's Cat]

Strange

Mike just should have brought in his cat instead of sitting there and being a moron to his neighbor who ran out and possibly accidentally ran over the cat. Very nice team work on the animation and voice acting. Liked how when he started to put the bowl on his head the background became scribbles of red.

The storyline didn't make much sense though. Why was he being a twit when they guy kindly asked him to keep his cat indoors?

Oh well, still cool for a movie jam albeit a bit late.

turtleco responds:

yeah, even though we spent a lot of time on the storyboarding, it still made no sense.
