I love your style of drawing, its... original. LOL, the big feet. Good work!

~~~POSITIVE POINTS~~~
1. Drawing was excellent.
2. Good choice of audio, it synced well.
3. It had some humour when it showed him, then zoomed out.

~~~NEGATIVE POINTS~~~
1. Some drawings weren't good in the backgrounds, but most were.

[Embryonic Adventures]

{{{ REALLY GOOD }}}

~~~REVIEW~~~
Ok, it was a bit slow, but I understand it was slow so you could sync it with the music. It was a bit slow that it was a bit boring at times, great graphics, and music was good! A lot of effort too.

~~~GOOD POINTS~~~
1. Graphics were awesome!
2. Story line was simple, and nice.
3. Original, very original.

~~~BAD POINTS~~~
1. It was a bit too slow at times, which made it a bit boring.
2. The ending wasn't that good, I was expecting them to fight, but you may not be good at animating that so you kept it simple, which is the way a Flash animator should do it.

~~~QUESTIONS~~~
1. How high was the frame rate?
2. It looked full of effort, how long did it take you?

Borogrove responds:

You're right, animating isn't my strong point. But like I said, maybe in the future after I've improved I'll go back to it, because there is more that can be done with it.

In answer to your questions;
1. 24 FPS
2. Approximately 3 months of not-so-intensive work, from idea to finished product.

[Clocks Really Suck Ass]

{{{ OKAY }}}

~~~REVIEW~~~
It was a bit weird, used the annoying voice changer that the clock/lock/glocks use... It's an anti-flash, which I'm too fond of those.

~~~GOOD POINTS~~~
1. The clocks you drew we're nicely drawn.

~~~BAD POINTS~~~
1. The background was lame.
2. Every time it played to next scene, it had a pause between everything, like the computer was stopping for a second.

[The Ballad of Sam & Frodo]

{{{ OKAY }}}

~~~REVIEW~~~
It was ok. I think you it would've been better if you made the sound setting a bit higher. It was a bit corny too.

~~~GOOD POINTS~~~
1. Good illustrations.

~~~BAD POINTS~~~
1. Bad framing, not very smooth, with almost everything. The illustrations were good, but it was like making still pictures move, they weren't moving parts of their body.

[Mafia Fight]

{{{ NICE }}}

~~~REVIEW~~~
Ok. Good movie. I have no idea how the guy behind me gave you a 0. Keep it up

~~~GOOD POINTS~~~
1. Violence was good.
2. Graphics were pretty good, they were good drawings but graphic quality was a bit low.
3. Nice style of fighting, except couldv'e been a bit faster.

~~~BAD POINTS~~~
1. Background wasn't that good, but I'm not good at them at all either.
2. A bit slow at times.

[Tentacle Monsters]

{{{ PRETTY GOOD }}}

~~~REVIEW~~~

~~~GOOD POINTS~~~
1. The graphics were awesome, even though it was sticks.
2. Very smooth animation.
3. The gun was was really nice!
4. How the shadow came over made a big difference too.

[AGENT SMILEY]

{{{ PRETTY GOOD }}}

~~~REVIEW~~~
Very nice! Nice style of graphics. Good work with the guns, the violence and everything to do with graphics. There couldv'e been more walking too. I'm looking forward for the next one

~~~GOOD POINTS~~~
1. Graphics were really good.
2. Violence, fighting, gore was awesome.
3. That's all for now.

~~~BAD POINTS~~~
1. Background was traced bitmap wasn't it?
2. Couldv'e been longer.
3. That's all for now

~~~QUESTIONS~~~
1. Are you going to make a second one?

3. That's all for now.

[iPod Flash Collab]

{{{ AWESOME }}}

~~~REVIEW~~~
Great work guys! Keep up the great work. I love that song, the one with the guys playing soccer was probably my favourite.

~~~GOOD POINTS~~~
1. Frame rate was nice and smooth.
2. Great graphics, great movement etc.
3. Good choice of music.
4. That's all I can think of for now, almost everything.

~~~BAD POINTS~~~
1. One or two had an outline which made the graphics a bit crappy.
2. Nothing else.

~~~QUESTIONS~~~
1. Why were only two people co-authored?
2. What's the song called and which band is it by?
3. I'm starting a new style of reviews, like this one. Was it helpful?

[At Your Funeral - Collab]

Good...yet.. sad

It was a pretty sad collab. I liked it, I think it just needed better graphics. I can't really say much, it was a sad collab.

[Madness Antipathy]

Really good!

Keep up the good work!!
