[The First Pokémon]

I enjoy what typographic flash movies have to offer. Blending pokemon and some really funny discourse made this worth watching!

[Playback - Part 1]

My favorite character is now, and most likely will always be , the foster father. His drawn style, his attitude, his voice acting. Perfect. I love how your transitions are between certain scenes like when he woke up and punched the chicken. That perfect, scene intentionally cut short thing makes me laugh every time. Good work on the animation and voice acting by the way!

[Slightly baconed SpriteF.]

I've seen plenty of sprite fight flash movies. They weren't all good. This is one of the good ones. Usually people go with the same old cast of mario vs sonic, and maybe mix it up with a megaman inclusion. This had a newer selction including DBZ and Bleach, which spiced up the scene a little bit. I liked the setting you used. The animation was clear and fluid.

Pro:
I liked the "Defeated" message.

What can be improved:
During some of the more intense fight sequences, the movements were too slow. The frame rate of the sprites animation could be speed up, perhaps? Or use less frames, or time it differently? Either way, some instances of fights could be made more "awesome" if you used some sort of time distortion, like either a higher rate of speed that would indicate the fighters are landing blow for blow attacks DBZ style, or if you went super slow . Either would provide really great effects.

All in all, 4/4, favorite, and great sprite all around!

[Animal Remix (DUB) WIP]

You have a really strong near - 5 rating for a reason. I have a some what limited listening of dubstep recently. I'm very familiar with the genre, but it has fallen out of my favor due to the lack of diversity I found out there in the main stream channels: Signed artists, youtube artists, and even some newgrounds artists. I noted mostly the same grime and saw set up of a song and lost interest. The music sounded great, just not unique.

Then I stumbled upon this song! (Well, it was in my feed.) This gives me a clean, relaxing , and unique take on the dubstep genre. First off I want to say, everything sounds very squeaky clean mixed. Now, despite dub and regge being similar at the core to dub step, I was pretty hard pressed to find a song that matched this kind of song. Bass is deep while keeping the buzz to a minimum, the introduction chords had a laid back reggae feel, and the pop-y 8-bit synth sounded "happy" inspiring. Lets not forget the warm pads heating up the air in the background! This song almost did an about face on the typical dub-step song and went for a happy, relaxed, "good mood" sort of feel . I'll admit, I don't have high hopes or expectations of finding music I'll like in the dubstep channel of the audio portal, but I can say with much satisfaction:

I loved this song. Please, finish it!

Thanks for that awesome review sonic! I honestly feel the same way about dubstep nowadays thats why I tried taking a stab at it. I'm almost done with the song, just one more day!

[Sequence WIP]

This sounds very good! Whatever mastering you did is making this track come in loud and clear while I enjoy the pop like synths you used. I'll be keeping an eye for the finished product!

Lockyn responds:

Thanks so much for the review! :D Will finish this one first. Cheers!

[Two Fold Shuffle]

I love Jet Grind Radio! That was one of my all time favorite video games due to it's amazing and varied sound track at the time. This song most certainly fits within the confines of jet skating and spraying cans. I have a playlist of music I feel would fit in the J.S.R universe and this song is most definitely added.

The radio tuning set the stage. The synth choice here is amazing. The percussion isn't too much in the foreground. The vocals are used sparingly and are just right for the theme. Kind of like putting a mint leaf on your ice cream. I've listened to this song 3 times so far, so will be listening to it a lot more. Good job, and thanks for the submission!

StaticBlu responds:

Thanks for the feedback. I think the song turned out so well because I was on an a Jet Set Radio kick when I made it (of course) so the influence was fresh in my mind. Glad you find my song worth coming back too.

[what was that]

I like the tone set with the color!

A combination I haven't seen before! I really like the color, and the laces really add a nice accent to the whole picture. That, and her "It wasn't me!" face. Good job :)

[a fish in hot water]

Reminds me

Of a hall mark card :o

[Snowflake]

Awesome

And you said you couldn't draw guys :D!
