[Sunshine Episode 666]

Ah!

^^Good Points^^
It's always nice to see a change in the series every couple of episodes and this definitely did it. The design looked very hellish and was quite scary. The change in music is also refreshing.

^^Needs Improving^^
The design is a little hard on the eyes since the text is the same color, and the flowers don't look very scary :(

Andersson responds:

Thank you very much for the review and I can do nothing else than agree with your opinions.

[Sunshine Ep.14]

Nice graphics

^^Good Points^^
This is some of the best graphics I have seen in this series so far. The shading that was used in this shows this fact. It was kind of funny as well how the bomb fell on that poor worm's head. I liked the night time type scene as well.

^^Needs Improving^^
Aww man...last episode of the series. Too bad you aren't making more fun stuff for me to review. :(

[Blockhead: Episode 1]

Brilliant!

--Graphics--
I'm not quite sure what to think of the graphics. Parts of the graphics were wonderful. For example, I liked how you animated Blockhead. When he moved around, it showed a lot of animating skill. I liked some of the drawings as well. I liked the drawings of Blockhead's conscience, which also shows your skill. However, most other parts I found to be a little strange. The backgrounds almost looked like sprites since they were kind of blurry and pixilated. I also didn't like how you didn't really manipulate the backgrounds too much, like when Blockhead picked up the phone, it didn't leave the receiver.

--Style--
Well, you've created a very sucessful character with this first episode, so obviously you've got some style. The storyline was unique and opened up an oppurtunity for humor and you took every opportunity and made this a wonderful series. You deserve all the recognition you have recieved for this.

--Sound--
This is definitely my favorite aspect of this movie. I loved the voice overs. They were very clear and very defined. You portrayed Blockhead's conscience in a perfect voice that made him seem like an erie old man. I loved both his voice and Blockheads, which were completely different even though they are the same person in essence. The sound effects were also very clear and on cue.

--Violence--
Well, the only part that would put pain into someone was when Blockhead was smashing his head into the couch. Not sure why he was doing this, but it was enough for me to give this a seven for violence.

--Interactivity--
You've got a unique preloader, which is about all that is interactive in this movie, so I can only give you a five in this department.

--Humor--
Like I said above, you took every possible opportunity for humor, and turned it into more humor than is possible. The voice overs really help with this in that they really define Conscience's short temper and annoyance. The randomness in this, like Blockhead eating his hand and trying to dial the phone company just made me laugh a whole lot.

--Overall--
This is a brilliant start to a series that I will definitely watch. This Blockhead dude, though we don't know much about him other than he is incredibly stupid, seems to be a memorable character that I will grow to like more and more. Keep up the good work!

[Pokemon Emerald]

Ok.

^^Good Points^^
Your animation is very good. The sprites movie very accurately. I liked the boxes you used for the text. The text was easy to read and the boxes were a nice shade of blue. I liked the background music as well.

^^Needs Improving^^
The storyline is a little lame in this. Ash gets called gay then kills everyone. The violence was kind of lame and didn't look very well done.

*sniff* T_T

[666]

k

^^Good Points^^
The ending was kind of funny. Thought the voice overs in that part were kind of funny. The voice overs were very clear and of good quality. Not a bad movie.

^^Needs Improving^^
The drawings aren't very good. You need to use more shading and what not to give more definition. The death animation was pretty lame too.

JunkFoodKing responds:

yeah, I'm not the best at that kind of stuff. However, I only abandoned shading in this one cause it takes place in the dark (the eyes aren't white, they are the first hue of gray), and I couldn't use lighter colors for lack of light source. (the lava lamp would have a red light with shading, but this looked too weird. However, thank you for your words. Not a lot of people thought the voice acting was good in this one.

[Squigo's Halloween Horror]

XD

^^Good Points^^
This movie is a little longer than I'm used to seeing for Squigo, but that turned out just to be better. I laughed quite a few times like when the pumpkin fell on his head, and the black guy's speech. The sound effects and voice overs were well done and very clear. The storyline was funny, and I would like to see a longer work from you guys.

[Squigo 7 Trailer]

Neat, but...

^^Good Points^^
I liked the beginning to this movie. The aerial view of this group of buildings looks very cool and very well done, and the way you shaped them to spell Squigo is cool as well.

^^Needs Improving^^
I'm not sure what this trailer is supposed to accomplish. It really doesn't tell us what is going to happen in Squigo 7, and for movies as short as this series, they don't really need trailers. The fact that this trailer is longer than the average Squigo movie is a little weird too. I wouldn't call this a trailer, but maybe an extended intro to the entire series?

[Squigo 6]

I can only give this a seven.

^^Good Points^^
I'm still impressed by the fact that this is the sixth episode, and this storyline is completely different from the rest of them, and it was still creative and entertaining. I liked the animation when he was making stuff with the string, and the end was comical. I like how all your ending just seal the end.

^^Needs Improving^^
This is definitely one of the worst parts of this series so far. The death was just kind of lame, not quite as creative as your other ones.

[Squigo 5]

Another good episode

^^Good Points^^
Another episode of the unfortunate events in Squigo's life, and another episode that is entertaining, yet short and original. The sound effects moving from speaker to speaker shows that you put some thought into this and makes the movie more enjoyable. I thought that the ending was funny as well.

^^Needs Improving^^
This one is not quite as exciting as the other, and is a little more predictable.
