You did say it was a remake but...

I feel like the guy that everyone hates on american idol but like him I could care less. This was a waste of flash talent. Could have just devoted your time to making a new story but didn't. Could have gotten unique voice actors rather than poorly recycling and butchering the ones from the game. Graphics look nice, decent anyway, style please...sound...it came from the game so I'm not going to give good vocie acting a bad score even if it is recycled. Violence DBZ=Violence. Interactivity=decent menu. Humor: I didn't find this funny in the least bit other than the actual idea to remake this. My score is self explanitory wether you agree with it or not. Stop giving this 5's just cause it involves Sonic. It doesn't deserve it. (Because I said that statement alone everybody will probably give it a five now). Thankgod it was taken off of front page at least.

Chakra-X responds:

I really am having a hard time understand why some people dislike authentic voices from the REAL voice actors and want a voice actor that doesn't even fit him, and not his real voice.

Pfft, I hardly think it was "taken down". More like "replaced" since I happened to submit this the day before Clock day.

Average...

It's a good thing I wasn't able to write a review for this when I saw it this morning. Its only strong point was the drawings. The animation was cliché but that is not your fault entirely. I mean it’s hard to do original animation these days but you need to reach in and pull out a new trick or two out of that hat of yours. I know you could have done better but you just decided to half ass this one, which it shows. No color, mediocre animation, no real plot or story. I felt like I was watching a pencil test animation or something in the production stage which if that is the case then it should have been stated. Try to put a little more effort into the next one.

Vermillion2 responds:

Thanks for the review, but as I stated earlier. This was just practice on doing a sword fight scene i made a stupid story as i went along, and this by far the most frame by frame animation i've done on my own, im not trying to be jesus

Very Nice My Friend^^

I hate claymation usually but this was really appealing. You must have put in some trmendous effort into this animation and it truely reflects the hard work placed into it. The motion was incredible. I'd really like to know how you were able to make it so smooth. I could barely tell that you had moved any part of the figure at all which is really impressive. Please let me know k?

MackProductions responds:

animating it at 20 frames per second helps a lot for the smoothness :P

Blah!

Nice usage of moving backgrounds and sprites to captivate the actual action going on but thats about it...

Slowshadow responds:

Tell what more to put in... :)

it's a positive direction but...

First off let me note the positives before we get into the criticism. The graphics weren't half bad. Some notable scenes like the house and the city in the BG really stood out. It was fairly consistent through out which is a plus in my book. Some animation was present; the hero had a very cool look and feel about him.

Now the criticism... When I first saw the giant eye I thought about the "Incredibles" and the tug of war match immediately provoked my "DBZ" radar. It's been done and done to death. Try to come up with some more interesting concepts and techniques utilizing these features rather than just straight copying them. The use of your tweens could use some work too. The motion of the arms when the men were firing the guns was off and looks lame.

This doesn't look like it was your first flash but none the less it wasn't bad. Not inspiring nor was it blatantly lame. I gave it a 4 becasue I feel it has potential so lets see some of that in your next episode k.

teh-mobile-sponge responds:

Well thats too bad, I'm sorry you didin't like it :(


Hopefully the next one will make you feel good :D

Pretty Snazzy but...

It might have been just my speakers but the bg music seemed to drown out the voice acting almost through half the movie. You might want to play around with the volume controls in flash to avoid that problem in the future. Nice story by the way I like the idea of going back to how it all begins. Many don't feel this is important now adays but its a solid foundation of any good story. Take batman begins for instance. If that had been released before all the other batman movies it might have captivated a larger audience in the long run.

ch33ks responds:

True. I'll post the link to the translation of the official manga for people who want to read up on the story.

...

The last one was far better. Teabag girl hun. Guess it seemed like a good idea at the time. Ah well E for effort. Look foward to the next one.

Wonchop responds:

Teagirl. Not Teabag girl. >=|

Eh!

Well, no complaints other than the sound quality definetly could use some improvment. It gave me a brief chuckle which is more than half the flashes on this site are able to do. Still if that girl is a virgin that should be a done deal by days end LOL! Nice!

Wonchop responds:

Indeed.

The ultimate showdown must go down...

Okay, I will begin by saying that there isn't really anything wrong with this animation but compared to other submissions on this site like little foot or there she is or even rockman neo there is no way this submission should be # 1. I think that robs the truely creative flash artist out there that have spent far longer trying to turn out actual quality flash projects than this one. I mean as far as visuals mediocore at best. Yeah you had a lot of different pop culture icons and celebs thrown in there with a rather catchy song I will give it its dues in that aspect but still it isn't the best on this site so hopefully, this will drop back down to its rightful spot which should be around the top 30 in my book.

altffour responds:

Thanks for all the constructive criticism that will no doubt make my next flash better!

Oh, so I'm NOT supposed to be number one. I'll get on changing that.

Those poor bastar..I mean egyptians ^^*

For three hours of work by mouse that was very good. Since it was pretty much a school project and taken into consideration you were under the gun it wasn't bad. I thought it was cold when the spinx monument fell backwards crushing all those poor hard wroking slaves >< LOL-Dude word of advise...don't be cheap...buy a wacom tablet. It will be of great help in improving your flash submissions trust me I can't get by without mine. Be interesting to see what else you pull off while in class ^^

Digimaks responds:

Eh- I do have Tablet now.
It was a thing that we were rushed in our course.
Also- the animation was made in TOON BOOM- a pure nighmare for FBF animation!(feels like Microsoft Paint )
And we were restricted to use Flash. CRAP!
But in that case I imported my sequence to Flash and pampered it up.

Hun...My head hurts from all the projects I need to complete*!@ Anyone got an asprin? Oh wait...I'm allergic to those XD
