Very original.
Well, firstly we have a loading screen, common and helpful to not give on a movie’s long load. Though, it seemed to have taken a lot of time even for a 3 MB flash. Any reasons? Any way, upon watching this, I was rather hypnotized, the background, the characters, not to mention the perfectly clear voices. It gave out a feeling of interest, of anticipation as to what’s to happen next. Beautifully drawn, animated in a very life like form for every character, despite how very various they were. The sad and slow background music constantly in he background was very contributive to the Flash’s ambience The voices were all different from one another and crystal clear, something few people go for anymore. Because of the film’s odd nature, you have a never ending feel of wondering. And a million questions to find an answer for ( I.E doesn’t that pulch resemble a massive pair of…). Also there was clearly nothing remotely violent in the movie. Everything was completely in order for any person of any age to view, excluding the pulch. It was even humorous, in a rather old cliché style British sense. Like the accents and of course the hobbies and even the appearance of what you described as “a dying Luxemburg” .which later indeed die. But regardless to that section the psychotic behavior of the speaking hand was on its own quite funny. It was very easily one of the most original things I saw, I’ll bet all that I own that even if the animation and sounds were only half as good, the plot and bizarre originality alone would have gotten you the same spot. Not a dull moment in the movie, constantly with this or that, quite diverse shall I say. Very detailed work, no effort spared here. It’s a great movie and I can only wish you keep making them and love doing so.
Now for the more pure statistics.
Graphics: 9, Good graphics, very appealing and detailed, movement and animation were also very smooth, fluid and fun to watch. Every single motion was in it’s own unique way and you have made things that do not even exist yet look enchanting. Also very original thoughts regarding the way of creation.
Style: 9, This had the style of a most of your work, a very random piece almost as always. A growing plot line that of course made no real sense. Facinating to watch but a pausing ability would be nice, sound be be broken into pieces to fit a pause button which would make matters better.
Sound: 10, Voices and music were well done, the music was interesting and rather sad, voices were perfectly clear and various.
Violence: 0, no real form of violence. 100% violence free.
Interactivity: 2, It had subtitles and a play button, but something this long with no pause button was rather annoying. I suggest you make a bit more effort and learn how to make a pause button, without screwing up the voices of course, it can be done. If you just divide each sentence, into its own section, pausing can be possible. Quite like in the “Decline” series.
Humor: 7, It had humor, not much or anything but it could bring a smile to one’s face, nothing outrageous or boring, in the middle.
Diversity: 9. Quite Diverse from anything I remember seeing. Nothing boring.
Effort: 10, Must have taken a long time to make and it shows, it’s very good and as they say “Rome wasn’t built in a day”. Though a pause button is in much need.
Originality: 10, Of course this is very original, because there is nothing like it any where else, your work for the most part if not always is original, keep it up.
Overall: 9, Near perfection, but just short of it. Add a pause button, and this will be a ten. Good work.
