Reviews for "Zelda: Heart for the Hero"

Nice little zelda short

It was a well-made flash. The graphics were very clean and nice to look at and the animation was smooth. The music, nothing that amazing...just background music from Oot as well as the sound effects of link were taken right from the game.
Obviously you're poking fun at how Link cannot talk in the game, and his inability to create speech makes him an easy gag target. Good idea, certainly you are not the first one to use this joke, but i like that you took it a step further. The acting by the shopkeeper was very convincing, and was nearly perfect sound quality.
I can't really say i laughed that whole much...i chuckled maybe a few times at the expense of Link's misfortune. I felt that there should've been more and that it never quite came together at the end. it was a little too short...
In conclusion, everything about it was pretty much top notch and refreshing to see from a new artist. i'm excited to see another well-made cartoony zelda parody....and I really hope to see more from you. well done.

Wow... one of the best Flashes I've reviewed!

Ok, so, let's get this lame intro to my review out of the way. I thought that this was very good. I always love Zelda parodys, and I've seen a lot, trust me. This one, is up there in my top five of all time. Your humor was great, and, I'll let my review do the talking.

Graphics: Wow... just wow... That's some good drawing mate! Zelda looks just like the nerd you would expect him to look, and the guy behind the counter looks just like a stuck-up employee of like, wallmart. I loved the backrounds too, they made it seem very realistic to the game. I loved the signs too! Lol, kokiri forest... don't they usually try to keep that place... oh, I dunno... hidden? Lol, that was excellent. Anyway, you did a great job with everything. Your heart looked very good! It actually looked like a real heart... eww... in short, I think you did a very good job with your art, and you worked pretty hard on it, I can tell!

Style: Ok, let me start by saying, the only way you ever get a 10 on my scale is if you make it look like it was made by Pixar. Anyway, I really liked your style. It was really great. It was one of the best animations I have ever seen. You made it look like the game, and the animation was pretty much flawless. I love animations that make the things they're mased on look like crap. It's funny in a parody, and it just makes things better they they would have been normaly. That's all I have to say.

Sound: Ok, first of all, who made your sound effects? They were AWESOME! And second of all, you're a very good voice actor. I loved the Growls that Link made, and the guy behind the counter sounded every bit the pertentious douchebag. Anyway, your voice acting and special effects made this a funner watch, and it made it all the more funnier when Link unsheathed the master sword, and it made the clinking sound. Quality like that usually puts me in a good reviewing mood, upposed to flashes that make me go: "well that sucked..."

Violence: The only real violence you had was the thing that said "kill navi" and the overall punchline where link kills the guy behind the counter, but that little bit of violence always makes a humorous flash all that more entertaining. That's all I have to say on this topic.

Interactivity: Anyone who puts they're own play screen gets a 5. Anyone who uses the half-hearted grey play screen gets a 2. Anyone who uses the newgrounds load screen gets a 4.

Humor: Wwhat can I say? This flash made me laugh. I love it when people make subtle jokes, that only true Zelda fans would understand. The subtle inacuracies in the backround that most people wouldn't pay the slightest attention too were very funny, and made a great partner for the front up joke. Plus, one thing that is always great for me is when the jokes are actually true. I hate to watch a parody where the jokes are pulled out of someone's ass. It's true, Link can't talk. It's true, navi is an annoying bitch.

Anyway, that's my review. If you found it helpfull, then good. If you didn't, then that's fine with me. Anyway, see you next review! (I review every flash that makes the left side of the front page.)

A hilarious work of art!

I was very impressed by this piece. Not only were the visuals spot on but it was pretty damn funny! I especially enjoyed Link's frustrated facial expressions as he struggled with his limited vocabulary. I was very surprised with the attention to small details like mannerisms and how the character's movements seemed "follow through."

Thanks very much for sharing this.

That was so great!

I thought that was done very well. I really enjoyed how Link could only do those little yelling things like in the game. Really well done, seriously. Make a sequel, that was really good, even people who don't like Zelda probably would find that funny. Though not as funny as fans.

Hah great job.

I'm not a Zelda player, but it was fun to watch and the animation went well with the humor. I can't think of much wrong with it. Keep it up. :)
Peace
