I liked the animation, design and concept, but the controls really took me out of it. Swiping the mouse as a punch and running past them was very clunky and awkward. Also, I wasn't sure why kicking used so much stamina while punching was more infinite. I would suggest adding a few items, maybe some melee weapons, and making punches and kicks a little more readily available and more easily executed. This would allow you to make the enemies more violent and dangerous than stumbling over and loosing limbs.
Decent game, but it didn't hold its own in my opinion. Nice job, good luck on your next project.

I apologize, but I could not finish watching this submission. I am a little surprised at newgrounds ...so many 10's on this submission. The intro was far too long, lip sync was off, the camera was zoomed in too much for sprites to make it extremely pixelated and unappealing to the eyes, but the worst thing that turned me completely off was the voice acting. I didn't even get that far to see some of VA's I'm more familiar with. Dedede's and Meta Knight's VA's had horrible sound quality. I cannot even judge their acting because the dialogue mixed with their barely audible microphone qualities was just a complete turn off.
Next time, you need to seek voice actors with higher quality mics, there are loads of them. I am one myself. - It does not mix well when you have someone like Rina who has a lot of experience, great quality, and then your two openers who had nothing but fuzzy, distorted noise. Audio is extremely important in a submission, especially when using voice actors. Keep that in mind.

I get your point but the quality can´t be that bad...
Maybe buy some new speakers for your computer ?
I mean where do the 10´s come from when it sounds like shit when you are watching this ?
And yes,I amtrying to improve the audio more.

sorry, but even though Ego did the voicing, I did not like this. You did every single line and shot from original but slightly changed the line to fit with a fish-theme. It didn't even take that much thought. The first was fresh and original and very funny, which made up for the half done animation, but yours was none of those things and had even less animation than the original. Just can't 5 this like all the other Ego fanboys.
Come on, people, you know better than this...

Oh how true so much of that is. What was it, the Zelda collab or 4 swords misadventures or something that said... "This flash also makes references to 20+ ideas that I found on the web, so in a way, there's a little bit of everything in it (but that depends on your taste) . There is even some very impressive FBF animation in it"
He outwardly states that he didn't come up with everything, and it doesn't make jokes, no...just references and quotes. :(
Now your movie did include all the necessary awesomes of newgrounds...especially the older, far more immature newgrounds. Newgrounds really has grown though, you have to admit more original cartoons have been spotlighted and animation quality has really improved, but yeah, video game parodies still reign supreme.
I have to admit, I chuckled a little at the mmm whatcha say part then snapped out of it. The fact is people are agreeing with you, yet voting your movie 5, proving your point! So, in your support, I gave you a 2.

I'm not enitrely sure of what I just saw, but it was incredibly well made, so great job! I loved the animation, the concept was definitely original and a little hard to follow. But it was that interesting brand of humor, so it was very entertaining. Great job!

This was amazing. It looked like the same art style as Samurai Jack!
I'm very curious as to how you achieve such an art style. Do you use the shapes tool and combine tweens with fbf? It's so awesome looking. Amazing job on this. The concept was great, the entire flash was great, the music was very fitting, and it really gave off a great mood. Nice job!

I really enjoyed this. I wish I had recorded more reaction sounds for you because when Evan crashed the tub and slid across the ground without a reaction, it was a little offputting. Don't be afraid to stress those types of things to your actors (us). It really strengthens the scene. Also the music at the end was a little loud so I couldn't reallyl hear Sqwuib's explanation that well.
Overall, great job, I really loved it. The appearance of Scarf and the Man in White were great and very mysterious. I love your backgrounds. Great job, man, I can't wait for the next one!
Author's Response:
Thanks Corey. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I guess I would've included a "sigh" or something but I always intended Evan to slide across and just be pissed off and neutral. As for the volume, I wasn't too sure whether it was too loud. I guess it is a bit ><.

Excellent ending, my friend. The animation was not amazing, but it was good as far as character expression goes. Cloud's movements were great and fit his current character very well, you didn't just recycle the same thing over and over, we saw some changes. you could have just had them standing perfectly still, but you didn't.
It gets a little stale with the setting, but the way you set it up as a quick sketch, it worked. Again, the ending was great. I liked the stutter and almost ramble that they had. It reminded me a lot of Home Movies. Do you watch that show? If not, DO. I think you'd definitely like it. Nice job

Wonderfully stylistic. If you like these types of projects, you should look into studying After Effects if you haven't. At first, I thought you had made this in AE. You can do some pretty insane things in AE, and it works great as a post producer for flash movies. Great job and good luck with your future submissions and projects. You would be really useful as a web designer or to make commercials and promos :)
Author's Response:
ha yes, actually I'm intending to learn AfterEffects too, but so far it looks pretty complicated and confusing to me.

For introducing me to Mike Birbiglia. He is amazingly talented. I watched his entire special right after viewing this flash. Animation wise, it was well done, characters and artwork were nicely draw and fairly well animated. Backgrounds were very nice too. Most of the props go to Birbiglia, but you did a swell job on the animation as well. Great job!
