Reviews for "TmsT's Zero Wing Rhapsody"

this was pretty bad.

the idea of this was good and you made the song match the video but you gotta work on the script/lyrics. like, the real lyrics was "mama.... ohhhh" and you just put in the word "mainscreen..." like, it didn't suit the tempo or beats that the song is sung in. if I wouldn't have known the song, I would have said this was good, but since I do know the song, it just made my ears bleed with how terrible you made it. just a suggestion. over all it was pretty good.
peace

TmsT responds:

Haha. You should watch the original "ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US" video. I didn't come up with these lyrics. I took them from a badly translated videogame called "Zero Wing", and INTENTIOANLLY set them so that they stuck out awkwardly from the meter (meter = "tempo or beats in which the song is sung"). If you knew how bad the original was, this would have sounded a lot better. :P

Excellent Concept Plagued by Midi Limitation

"Too Much Spare Time" places a smile on everyone's face with the concept of "Zero Wing Rhapsody." However, the limited Midi sound and poor voices slice the score in half. Still, the concept is valid.

Queen is considered "operatic rock"; melodrama plays a key. The flash achieves this visually, but not vocally. Voices fall short of exaggerating the emotion for Queen. It seemed "TMST" "held back," and many will pick up on it.

This must be Midi, but I could be wrong. Whatever was used succeeded with the piano, but not the heavy riffs required during Cats' head-banging sequence. That spoiled the fun.

These seem trivial as a weakness, but they're hard to overcome. Flash artists who aren't musicians borrow from media collections, which works for Newgrounds but few official venues. Worse, studio recording requires hourly fees, and this site's flash artists refuse to shell out money for projects than what's deemed "standard" or "necessary." Going solo has it's share of disadvantages.

However, the sound is clear, so that counts, and the spoof is a cool concept supported by excellent visuals. If the sound gets a spontaneous overhaul, a second "All Your Base" craze won't be far off.

TmsT responds:

Midi limitation was intentional, yes, even the crappy guitar riffs - see original Zero Wing animation; the singers had never encountered these AYB lyrics before and had no rehearsal; nice review though - excellent english tarnished only slightly by a misused apostrophe and a few too many quote marks to sound not-sarcastic.
