[Luigi's Castle Calamity]

Ok flash, but...

Man, your English is atrocious.

JosephAS1 responds:

xD srry

[: Bastardized Musicals :]

I agree, kinda.

I think taking the musicians is pretty shit, but I was in The Wedding Singer, and I thought it turned out quite well. It was nominated for a few Tonys, too.

[TmsT's "Spy & Pyro"]

Good, didn't understand pyro design.

I understand this is reminiscent to golden-age loony toons, but why does pyro only breathe through one of her two holes? And why is she mexican? I always imagined her to be pale.

TmsT responds:

That's no Mexican, and she's wearing no mask. Pyro is her species.

[Mario's Recital]

It's funny and all...

but I'm still disappointed because I thought the title said "Mario's Rectal."

Sh0T-D0wN responds:

I lol'd.

[Tf2: Meet the Pyro]

Ah. It's exactly a pyro's point of view.

Rainbows make me cry!

[Wild Wind]

Phenomenal!

Meh, loved every bit of it. Humorous insight on a small bit of daily light. But ah, that's why I try to keep my hair short! The only big flaw I could point out is that I feel like a geek now because I could identify all of the SFX in the flash. Oh well... Great job. I'd like to see more of your humorous pixel flashes about the workday. Maybe one about spilling coffee? Eh, I suck at at idea support. Anyway, great work, I'm definitely gonna watch the next thing you make. You've gained my support.

[Life with Navi]

HAY! LISTEN!

This was better than I expected it to be. You do have quite a bit of talent. Your art style is cute and appealing to the eye, and for the most part, the animation runs very smoothly. I gladly await your next project, hoping for it to be longer and better than the last. One last thing; I cannot thank you enough for not using sprites as your medium.

[Weegee's Mansion]

YOU WONT FIND ADOBE HERE IN WEEGEES MANSION...

but there are some pretty nice hotels.

[The Red Ball]

I liked this.

Ok, so this was an awesome flash. But it isn't perfect. I am being a little picky, but two things you need to work on are these:
-The ball's path is a little too geometric. Spend some time evening that out. What I mean by geometric is that it isn't curving, but pivoting at certain points. It would look a lot better if you made the line trailing it a little more curved and less pivot points.
-The font you chose. With such a serious flash, you need to have a more serious font. When I first saw the font I thought this flash would be humorous or light. But it wasn't. To give you an example, it wouldn't make since for Nintendo to use "Chiller" font for a Super Mario game. (except maybe Luigi's Mansion) So again, choose a more fitting font for the text.

All in all, this flash wasn't bad. As much as I'm criticizing it, it's one of the better serious ones I've seen in a while. So other than those little things, your flash is great. I would love to see more flash from you in this style. Keep up the good work.
5/5
9/10

karthon responds:

ok, i'll give it a shot.
I was experimenting with styles and colours, and simply decided to make this one
thanks for review!

[Invader Zim: TMHSE]

Great Job!

The animation of the characters was dead-on (work on Dib a little bit though) the house looked straight outta the show, the color pallete was awesome, the only particularly bad aspect was the voice acting, but you can't expect much with the unique voices of IZ. Overall, you did pretty nice.
