Not too bad

The animation was pretty decent and the voice acting wasn't bad (though anyone's going to sound a little odd voicing Link, what with him being a silent character and all). The battles could probably have been a bit more exciting but they match the actual game quite well as they are.

Why does it say "Stay tuned for part 2" at the end?

Hiyoko responds:

It was a typo, it's fixed now.

Interesting

Here's a random and probably unhelpful suggestion - when you're showing the ruined buildings the camera does some very odd focusing, like it seems to rush to them then pull away slowly or zoom out then in again. Some slow panning combined with a slow fade might work better - it gives your audience time to try and figure out what it is they're looking at rather than throwing it in their face, it makes it more involving. Does that make any sense?

Anyway, your promo is interesting but not enough to make me watch out for you finished film. There's very little story on show here so I'm not sure whether it'll be my thing or not. Your artwork is very good but it looks scanned - or at least bitmap - so you need to figure out how to turn it into lots of individual symbols so that you can animate it. That's going to be your main challenge to start with.

Good luck!

Haha, hey there! Definitly not an unhelpful suggestion you just made there :D You're absolutely right.. haha... I watched it again after reading your review, and went.. 'hey, i think he's right, it does look a bit... odd' So thanks for noticing that teehee!
Now, of course I'm still ... kind of.. a Flash-noob... but I'll try my best to make it look...more interesting haha :D

Is there a sync problem?

I was confused over the syncing too. There's a bit at the beginning where the guy's speaking the words of the song (I assume), but his mouth's moving a good second or too before you hear the words. But then the animation and the song finish at the same time. If there is a syncing problem its a serious one, otherwise I have to say the mouth moving and saying nothing sort of throws the entire animation off.

Hmm thats kinda wierd... cuz i watch the movie when i submitted it and it was synced almost flawlessly.. dunno whats wrong :S. thx for the review and the heads up!

Fantastic

That is really, really good. I loved more or less everything about it, the smooth animation, the visuals, the ideas, the song. My only real dislike was the stickmen as characters, but thats only cos they're over used by people who can't draw or animate (and thats obviously not you). Good luck with using it for art work, this is a brilliant submission.

allemansing responds:

Now THIS is why i do flash :D

Looks good

Why was the Newgrounds tank reversing in the preloader? Game looks and sounds pretty good - looking forward to it

Master-Light responds:

Sorry, i didnt make that animation complain to ketch15. Machine.

Waiting for the full one now...

That was a lot better than it sounded from the title and description. Can't wait to see the full thing (but let me guess, I have to...)

Squarion responds:
