fun but easy
I lol'd at level 31...I always knew the forces of chaos were involved with Cell phone coverage.
Battle for Wayland Keep
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars May 25, 2011
Not bad
the click to move system could have been improved by being able to move by click-dragging as in Diablo, Darkspore, etc. While the game itself was fun, it's one giant Dragon Age rip off, the armor and location names were the biggest tip-off to that.

underwhelming
It's metroid with out all the stuff that makes metroid awesome. No music, very limited variety of enemy models, and very basic level design.
And the story (as i gathered it) was to invade an enemy planet, wipe out it's native species, steal their valuables and claim it for the human race? That sounds suitably human.
The only real good thing i'm seeing here is the pixel art, it reminds me of the old school activision (the actual game system from the Atari days) titles that involved near endless dungeon crawling before Metroid came about.
All in all, it's so-so. I'll never come back to it, but some are bound to like it.

Elk's Deathwing
Rated 4 / 5 stars May 23, 2011
Really cool
That is a sweet looking dragon. And the fact that it's *not* Deathwing aside, the only real problem I see is the wings are much, much to small.
its deathwing without all this armor shit its been given from the horde :P... i dont like armored stuff...it steals the freedom of animals :)
Angry Faic 360 Controller
Rated 4 / 5 stars Nov 18, 2010
Very cool
It seems kakalxlax is trying to bring to light rules that he doesn't understand. If HE were to read the rules for the art portal he would see that it is ok to submit a photo if said photo is OF the piece of art and not being submitted as the art itself. So in other words, if you can't scan it into the computer, a photo of said art piece is acceptable. Don't believe me, ask Tom. ANYWAYS, it is very cool and you could make some real money off doing this if you do things right, keep it up man :D
thanks man

Animation was decent. Her voice is quite good but I felt the vibrato was a little overused which detracted somewhat from the enjoyment of the song for me. Overall, well done.

Well....
I can't help but feel that even though this was made in two weeks, that no more than a few total hours was put into it. I'd very much like to see you re-make this with much more time and effort put into it. Early works can be a bitch some time, just keep trying, and keep polishing your product.
Side note: There are shape tools in the Flash maker program. They are your friend.
You've guessed correctly. Even though this flash did take 2 weeks to complete, I only had ~45 minutes each day to work on it during my lunch break.
On the matter of the shape tools, I remain skeptical of using them as I have seen others in my ICT class use them to make their animations and the result is pretty awful.
Thanks for the constructive criticism.

My thoughts
Ok so I think I'll write an actual review unlike most
First Video: Animation was fluid and stylish, well done. While I was happy to see the pulse rifle from Aliens, I was disappointed not to hear the correct sound. I was happy, however, to hear the pistol shot sound from Half-Life 2.
Second Video: Extremely short, animation was again, fluid and stylish. The Scene was a bit un-original I'm afraid.
Third Video: Again, short. Despite that fact I enjoyed it for a reason I can't quite pinpoint.
Fourth Video: I do hope this one gets finished eventually as I am a huge fan of the Aliens v Predator universe. Again I was disappointed at not hearing the actual pulse rifle sound, though I applaud your otherwise mostly accurate sound effects.
Overall Thoughts: There is no singular flaw with any of this, I did enjoy it for the most part. The only thing that gets you a point off on both ratings is the fact that the "Stick Figure" theme has been well overdone. All in all, good stuff.
Thanks for the good review. I did not use the original pulse rifle sound because it always seemed a bit weak to me; that and I couldn't find a decent sound sample of it.
