Something you won't want to hear

Your going to get a number of reviews from a lot of people that this is complete crap because the animation isn't smooth and for a first episode, pretty much everything made no sense.

I would recommend you ease a little bit into the story and environment in the first couple episodes. Get some nice and easy character development and introduce some general things to the audience that they can connect with. Not some random chick whose running some high-tech experiment and getting annoyed that a shield number isn't what its supposed to be while some other random dude is beating up someone she secretly cares about.

I understand the "anime" style that emphasizes more on well drawn characters then simpler more fluid characters but imo that type of animation should only be left for professional studios. Anyone on newgrounds trying to attempt that style can easily make themselves spend a very long time on an animation that really isn't that visually appealing.

I give you an 8/10 because like zbox101 said below, this is obviously a lot better then the average on newgrounds. My recommendation would be to find an easier more fluid style to animate these characters so you get your money's worth in terms of rating for the time you put these episodes. A 3.9 for a 2 1/2 year project may make you pleased or upset depending on what you were expecting but I know if I spend any more then 3-4 months on an animation I expect nothing less then a 4.0.

Yeah I'm kinda hitting myself over this. The problem is that in the grand scheme of the Dual Arms "Series" this is by no means the first episode. Hell it's somewhere in the middle, and I've spent at least one of these two years thinking to myself about how stupid a decision that was >_< I've kinda tried to make up for it, as you saw, by putting in an extensive "World" section, but you are absolutely justified in saying that I really have been stupid to do this particular 'episode'.

The smooth animation versus image-based is in my opinion more a matter of preference than audience, though upon reflection I think you're right in that the NG audience is a touch preferential to the smooth animation I certainly need work on. I think I will be doing a lot of work refining my animation skills in the future, towards a smoother, less rigid result.

I thank you very much for being merciful score-wise while still giving me this abundance of useful critique. I certainly would like it if I got scores over 4 whenever I put a good long time into my work XD, though I think the audience for this particular genre is a touch limited. Perhaps that's just my pathetic rationalization though, and I could certainly do more to improve.

Thank you once again for reviewing; I hope you'll be courteous enough to give me more feedback in the future.

DOOOOM!!!

The-Swain responds:

Zekey, Bug, and others were in that, do not be so quick to hate it :(

haha

u kno u coulda easily made the filesize of the movie like 3mb or less but u did somtn just to make it 9mb... pure genius... i will always have an auto 10/10 voting bias towards over nine thousand :D

Sh0T-D0wN responds:

:D.

I could have gotten away with 7.5 MB, but I figured the filesize joke was worth it.

decent... far from perfect

here are some things to help u out if u make another one of these...

- put alot more emphasis on making each character's voice sound unique. i kno you probably do all the voices, but try to do something (possibly put each character's voice in goldwave and do something different to each one) so its not as easy to figure out that the same person does each character.

- wen characters are talking, put less of a time interval between each person talking but not too close... i think your just a little stretched from the normal balance pause that ppl are used to.

- just a thot... possibly make the intro shorter... i mean i kno ppl can skip it but its still outrageiously long for simply being an intro. after i watched the intro, i thot i just finished the movie :p

- their was a good choice of words in the script but the voice acting dumbed it down a bit.

- oh ya and if ur going to make them fight dbz style or alvin earthworm style (kicking and punching the dude around in the air)... u gotta do it alot faster because your making the audience have to wait for the boss to slowly move through the air and reach the next place where he gets hit.

- can't really critique much on the "game" part of the flash since im def no expert in actionscript... the att's/skills were pretty good but imo i thot the boss had too much hp, but then again, some ppl actually spend the 20 minutes on this flash to kill him so ya.... shout out to the ppl who are bored lol.

overall, the movie was decent but I think that alot of improvements coudl be made.... the potential is there, just gotta unleash it..

MidNightMaren responds:

Well, I got your point... You are only concerned about the voice acting, which I think is very good.
And, its not Alvin's style! Before he ever submite anything to NG I have made toons of battles like this one! And, I told to see the movie in a FAST computer, because the battle is quite fast in mine! Fast enough actually.

Anyway, thanks for the review

needs moar...

more action.... and make the movie faster paced... viewers don't like waiting 20 seconds for the guy to walk to a certain area to shoot somebody...

AdrianOmar responds:

it is 20fps but i dont know why is slow...

haha...

looks like something someone would get a kik out of if they were high lmao :)

gj on the colors

BlueHippo responds:

hurrhurr thanks ;P

GENIUS

i could not have asked for a bettter rick roll... this rick roll should go down in history!!!

Sh0T-D0wN responds:

Lol.

wow

all i can say is wow... wen u said some of the best stick artists on newgrounds were in this u weren't kidding... nicely done!!! i definetely expect this to get in the top 50 of all time... u guys did an amazing job :)

miphisto55 responds:

Lol thanks =]. To bad the score is so low though, i'm not sure why, some of these parts just by themselves should be higher lol. I guess i picked a bad day to submit this =[.

good stuff

ya i kno wut u mean bout that lag... my system is like 6 years old but from wut i could see it was all well drawn... voices were sometimes out of sync as well but i think thats cuz of the lag..

neways i tried your youtube link and wen i was sent to youtube it gave me this mssg
"The url contained a malformed video id."

so i dunno if the links corrupted or if youtube didn't like your submission lmao but just sayn that i had a problem watching the video..

good job
