RE: The Caretaker
Despite the lack of animation at some parts, it turned out actually pretty damn good. I really enjoyed the beginning where you could tell you whipped together a nice backgrounded scenery there. It was pretty interesting to see the story progress as the song went on.
The animation was good, as well with the Frame by Frame animation except one part his hand looked awfully small but that's another story.
You did pretty good! I liked it :) I liked the kittens rolling in the milk, hah.
Well anyways, Newgrounds doesn't really rate like it used too. Poorly animated submissions get front page, and daily awards. If you have a dead day on Newgrounds where hardly any submissions are submitted to the portal, than you're bound to get a few daily awards to some submissions not quite deserving it.
Another thing, Style does overdo animation skills as well as creativity. It's just how Newgrounds is. When they hear that tune going, they keep tapping their legs and start jamming out to the beats... :[
Oh well. It's the life on NG. There are users who vote high on everything, users that vote low on mostly all submissions, than there are actually fair voters. You just have to be the lucky one that submits at the right time.
It's a whole new ballgame :)
i always wanted to say that.
