Harry Cadaver Harry Cadaver

Rated 4 / 5 stars March 26, 2006

A lovely interactive story!

This movie gives you an excellent experience of a movie from the '30. Seeing a Cadaver in the main role, is funny. Combine that with a world similiar to Alice in Wonderland and you've got a perfect formule!

The graphics were in some way basic, but they fitted right in and made it feel like it was an old cartoon from the '30.
The character designs + backgrouns are also unique in its kind. But that perhaps no-one used a cadaver before in a movie like this.

You've used the perfect sounds like when you go to another chapter of the story. Plus I liked the background music.

What made this movie unique to others is that it was very interactive for a movie. You need to pull before you'll see the animation and a text-bar shows you what's the story behind the animation.
Very creative and like I said before very '30.

There's not much else I could add. Overall I really like this one how it's been set-up and the interactivty. I really got the 'Alice in Wonderland'-experience!

I hope to see some more of your respected work in the future.

Thanks for the long review! I suppose it does look kinda like Alice in Wonderland. The coding in combination with the audio made the things difficult to say the least, but I'm glad you liked the final!


Wildfire Island Wildfire Island

Rated 4 / 5 stars October 9, 2005

Cartoonish!

Seeing something that kinda reminds me of an old cartoon I used to watch when I still was a kid, is always fun.

Your style of art is quite impressive and really gave this movie its own style. The backgrounds are very artistic which gave the funny look to the world you're showing us.
The idea behind this movie is really original; people on a island and things happen. Just funny.

One thing I also noticed was that the voices are recorded of a very high quality - which is quite important in a movie such as this one. The voice actors have done a great job, since they sounded really 'cartoonish'.

Now the humor was a crucial part of this movie and you've done a good job on it. Not sure if they all were thought out well, but some made me laugh.

Overall this is a really good quality movie with very artistic backgrounds and well animated characters. The voices really added the cartoonish feeling and the humor just did the same.

Seing part 2 would be really nice.

Smokey gets Busted Smokey gets Busted

Rated 4 / 5 stars September 15, 2005

Like a real cartoon!

Seeing another cartoon of the creator of Taco-Man is always nice, but this one sure had a very good scenario.
Just two kids sitting in church who want to smoke. And once they're outside they ask for 'Smokey', once he's there, he get's arrested. Haha.

The animation is really smooth and has nice cartoon elements in it. Everything has been tweened very well.

The backgrounds and art also gave me the feeling I was wathing a cartoon - it kinda reminds me of Looney Tunes (just like Taco-Man). So your background designer sure did a good job on this one.

The voices are sounded also just like a cartoon, which even gives you more the feeling you're watching a real cartoon; the same goes for the music, 'cartoonish'.
The character designs are really cool and I just love how 'Smokey' looks like and acts. He just motivates the kids to smoke! "Don't forget kids, take a deep hale."

This cartoon sure made me laugh, just like Taco-Man and your other work and the scenario is one of the better one's I've seen lately.
Keep up with the good work.

Nice balanced game

Like described on the front page this is an addictive game, with an original concept.
The idea is pretty simple, but it has been worked out real nice and makes you want to improve your score - because it should not be so hard to beat it, you think. That's where the fun starts, and makes it so addictive.

I gave you a 6 for the graphics, but in my opinion there's nothing bad with that score. A game like this does not need state-of-art graphics. So, for a game like this, it's just fine.

Like I said: I think this is an original concept, so I that should explain the 8 for the style.
Speaking of interactivity: this game is all about interactivity and it has a good balance. So that's all fine for me.

I like this game and think it deserves its spot on the front page. I would love to see more of this, or something similar.

Keep up the good work.

Rated 4 / 5 stars December 14, 2005

Extremly interactive game!

It has been a while since I've seen game which as been this interactive. It was quite hilarious to see the dummy act like a total moron on his bike.

The graphics are always a crucial part on a submission and the graphics were excellent.
There are quite some other submission on Newgrounds with motors and bikes, but none of them was of this quality.

What mostly was good about this game was the ragdoll. Very good psyhics, resulting that there were a couple of nice falls. The way of playing also was good, you need to drag the arrow and based on the that, it moved. So pretty much everything could happen and that's why it was a good thing to add a ragdoll to this game.

I enjoyed this one; the music was good, good interface, sounds, graphics, art.
There might been some little errors with the ragdoll, but you can't fix that for 100%. It was good enough, thouh.

Really an awesome beat and melody! We definitely need "moar" of this!
Not surprisingly that has been listened many, many times. It totally deserves it.

QUA DU MI DU SEIN?!

Het is werkelijk waar ongelofelijk dat je zo'n talent beheerst. Dit heb ik in geen tijden gezien. Daarnaast zie ik zo veel artistieke mogelijkheden alleen in dit portret al. Het is niet onmogelijk dat je later beschouwd wordt als één van de grotere artiesten die ooit geleefd heeft en dat terwijl dit allemaal is begonnen op Newgrounds. En heuse mijlpaal, dat wel, meneer.
Oh, ik ben laatst ook nog even naar de bloemist geweest en die wist me te vertellen dat dit veel lijkt op een Jan de Hoop schilderij. Eerst wou ik het niet geloven, maar toen ik iets langer naar je schilderij keek, kon ik er niet meer onderuit: De verschillen zijn nihil.
Mag ik ook je handtekening trouwens?

Nice!

Your comment is actually more depressing than your illustration.
Your illustration is a pleasure to view on full size!
