[A Victim of Circumstance]

Lemme see if I can gleam the story right. This girl just used her pendant to murder a guy simply because he wanted to talk to her?

...yeaaaah, that's totally reasonable.

Vladjack4 responds:

It's more like the pendant protects its owner from those who are a threat or are dangerous.

[EVo3: Finally Some Action]

This sort of brings up a "chicken and egg" thing, mainly that the only reason the far-in-the-future humans exist is because they interfered with the past, but if they HADN'T interfered with the past, they wouldn't exist in the first place, so in reality, they basically created themselves. So I can sort of see the "paradox" kind of issue some might have and how this can make people's brains hurt. Also, I'd feel sorrier for Bighead Mc. Tentacle-Out-His-Back if not for the fact that he STUPIDLY abducted two people right the hell out of nowhere and just expected them to go along with it. And you think CREATIONISTS are idiots.

By the way, tone the anti-religious stuff down. Actually having a belief system doesn't make you stupid. As a Roman Catholic, I respect the institutions of science the same way I respect women's rights to have abortions and gays the right to marry. I view God more as just "something behind it all" type of force and not just a stereotypical guy on a throne among the clouds and was still able to enjoy this despite you liking to take digs at people such as me. Having said that, there are a few things that could use a bit of improvement, such as the audio quality, it's KINDA hard to hear what they're saying because their voices aren't louder than the background audio. And the man playing the alien should speak up. Other than that, the flash quality is quite smooth and well done, though I would like to say this...

Every animation, cartoon, comic, movie or story is someone's first. Knowing what comes before is HELPFUL, sure, but a story should be able to explain to the audience who the characters are, how they got there and what the plot is about quite quickly. If the audience can't care about the protagonists, we cannot get invested in the story. And we can't care about them if we don't know where they're from or what they do, so some introductory text crawls or narration or what not would be appreciated for next time to explain to those "just tuning in", as it were, as to what's happening. Just some friendly advice.

vezanmatics responds:

There ya go, I fixed every single issue you mentioned in the new cartoon. Now quit yer yappin, humie.

[Janurary TwentyFourth2010]

Making a flash ABOUT making a flash...

That, in itself, is actually a very interesting idea. And I got the joke. "Calvinistic Congregational". Heh. Nice one.

Plus, January 24th is my birthday. I shall remember this flash forever.

LotusClock responds:

The secret to make your Flash popular is to submit on someone's birthday ;)

[Sonic Reversal: Ep. II]

Ha-ha-ha-ha! Oh man, this is great stuff!

Such amazing work with sprites, and I love the storyline. Sonic's sudden crushing doubt potrays him in a very human light, and the sudden return of Knuckles and tragic sacrifice of Amy make the series even more enthralling. For those wondering about the Easter Eggs: When Tails does a rapid spinning strike with his tail to Rouge in the air at the beginning of the fight, click. And the rest can be easily found in the credits via the "TAB" key. WARNING: They ARE kinda perverted. Impressive work, WinterStorm, can't wait for the next chapter...and I love the music too, I GOTTA get me those remixes!

WinterStorm responds:

If you liked the music, you can try playing the Phoenix Wright series for the DS. That's where I got most of it from. I don't know why, but for some reason, it seems that only that music can fit.

[Sonic 15th 2wo]

Hey! This thing made me laugh a LOT.

There are fart jokes. Time travel jokes. Jokes at the Sonic Franchise. In short, everything you could need to giggle, snort, laugh or guffaw at.

BTW, A shoutout to Sassi. She rocks,

RicPendragon responds:

Yep XD
I had to do some "toilet humor" to appease all audiences :P

[Chronicles of a Demon Ep3]

This is a funny and enjoyable series!

I like the humor, the art style, and the "Are Ya Ready" music you put into his cartoon. Now if only I could download it from somewhere...

This should be in a collection, people!

Darkar responds:

Hopefully somebody will hear you! :)

[ScientLOLojyuuichi!!]

Absolutely hilarious satire!

I believe that a REAL religon is based on one thing: salvation and not having to pay cash for it. Now if Scientology would get rid of the price tag, then...

That credits song is now stuck in my head. Thank you!

LULZunlimited responds:

...then it would still be retarded. But at least it wouldn't attract corrupt people quite as much I suppose...

[Sonic: Nazo Unleashed Part 3]

Amazing. Simply AMAZING.

I am very, very impressed by this flash and by the first two parts. I have only one question. What is that ending theme music? I can't quite place it!

Chakra-X responds:

Thanks!

It's called "Solaris Phase 2" from the Sonic the Hedgehog game for 360/PS3

[Tails and his GBA 3]

I'm very satisfied!

You ought to be proud with all of the work you've done. Your use of Sprites is impressive and it appears flawless. I only have one question: that music from the main menu is stuck in my head, where did you get it from? I know it's from a game, but which one?

RupeeClock responds:

Sonic Adventure 2 battle actually.
