Truly a Beautiful Masterpiece
Newgrounds...
THIS is what Frontpage is all about.
QUALITY entries like these. This was just absolutely beautiful and flawless. This DESERVES a score of 4.75, this DESERVES number 1 on the portal. This DESERVES frontpage and Daily Feature and so on.
Anyways, I shall go on and rate each category of the flash - as I do.
Graphics - 10 - What can I say? Everything is so detailed, From the mass shadings of the sky to the tiniest blade of grass on the field. This has obviously been made with a lot of effort and patience. I tip my hat to you. You are a fabulous artist.
Style - 10 - This really does go to show that this is a very unique movie. Not just the graphics, but the sound. Notice there was very little dialogue. Everything is told through actions. The plot is nice and simple, and it leaves open for a sequel - which I am looking forward to!
Sound - 10 - Sound effects add a lot of realism and depth to this piece. From the serenity of the landscape, to the loud calls of the creatures - everything is perfectly contrasted and the sound effects are perfect. Music, while not used often, is used efficiently and fits well with actions, movements and current moods.
Violence - 2 - Cartoon violence. Nothing extremely gory. Goes to show you don't need a constant gorefest to get people's attention and impress them.
Interactivity - 4 - Play / Replay buttons - But also the option to choose your own Quality setting, depending on the power of your computer.
Before I draw this review to a close, I'd like a small talk with those who rated this lowly.
First off, Navasockie. You've seen better animation? No seriously? Tell me your joking.
Roll_out71, the storyline may not appeal to you - but is it REALLY worth an overall zero?
Point_Blank1 - Since when was Adam Phillips a member of the Star Syndicate lmao. You sir are an idiot.
And finally, our prime faggot, Logo, maker of the "All NG Fads Die!" series. What the hell is your problem. If you don't like the storyline, then fine - BUT IS IT REALLY REALLY WORTH GIVING THE POOR MAN ZERO. You say it's "not impressive" but is it really as bad as a pure ZERO? ZERO, is what you give to crappy stickman animations that have been made in under 10 minutes - NOT THIS! Can you not see how much effort he's put into this, and you give him ZERO. In short, open your eyes and have a freakin' heart. You wouldn't know true talent if it bit you on the ass.
*ahem* Well..
Overall Adam, this definetly gets a perfect 10 from me. You have real talent sir, continue the fantastic work! :)
