Good to know you're still animating dude.
This was funny, I liked when he sliced up that one guy and he just exploded.
Happy Madness day

"Skills, you have them"

That was pretty good, better than I expected. You have some serious potential..
The only thing I didn't like was the lack of animation for the feet. You pretty much got lazy with it and made it slide-not good. Animate footsteps, then animate the body following those footsteps, sliding isn't a good idea unless you do it a certain way.
Other than that it was pretty cool.
One final note, the "go" button after the preloader was stupid, one play button is enough. Unless you have a menu with a scene selection, special features, etc.

"Improvement."

submission: Madness Streak Ep. 5

date: September 22, 2008

I see improvement in your recent work. While things are still choppy, they are getting less choppy. I am actually very happy that you stick with really long movies rather then a bunch of short ones.
Regardless, I watched, enjoyed, and voted, and now reviewed.
I have one final question though, where did you get the lightsaber sounds?

"Pretty cool"

submission: Madness Tribulation II

date: September 22, 2008

It was pretty cool, however, I didn't know what was going on half of the time.. It was sorta confusing, but it was still nicely animated, and I'm glad you got it out on time.
One thing that pissed me off was the auto-quality change. I would have preferred keeping it at medium..

"Funny"

submission: Madness Combat 8 Tweak

date: September 22, 2008

That was funny, I like how you made it look like Jesus was surprised, that was good.
One small thing would be the grammar, misspellings, you know, maybe try using a spell checker next time.
But it was funny regardless.

Score: 8

"That was cool"

submission: Zero Madness

date: September 22, 2008

The animation was pretty good, you had a nice flow going there.
One suggestion I would make is to fix the grainy sound, one easy way you can do this is by going into the documents of the sound effect and lowering the volume. You don't have to do it by so much, just so it's not right at the top.
That makes the sound not be so grainy and loud and stuff
HAPPY MADNESS DAY.

Score: 5

"Potential"

submission: Madness pointless killing

date: September 21, 2008

You have it. This movie was fucking choppy as hell. Like the other guy said, was this 5 fps??
But looking beyond that, I see that you actually got the sprites arranged right and it wasn't that bad, you know aside from the whole 5 fps or whatever.
The thing that brought my rating down was mainly the lack of a vcam and the choppy moving backgrounds that look like they were half assed while moving.
One thing you should do it look up something called a Flash Vcam. A Vcam is a square shaped symbol that you put in your movie on the top layer, if you make the vcam smaller, it will give the effect of zooming in, if you make it bigger, it will give the effect of zooming out. It's kinda like an easy way to manipulate the stage size.
You should look into using one of those for future animations.

submission: Madness Short Movie

date: September 21, 2008

Not like a few of the other people here.
This was HORRIBLE!
The first main thing I noticed was that the characters had two right hands, people seriously need to learn how to arrange hands and tell whether or not a hand is right or left. The animation was also really choppy, USE MORE FRAMES, YOU HAVE 16000 OF THEM, STOP RUSHING SHIT. If you want a movie to be taken seriously, you need to atleast make it so that any person who has a good sense of judgement believe that you took over 2 days on this.
And what the fuck? Was this movie animated on one damn layer? The backgrounds constantly moved and were piled up with shit.
And your artwork is horrible, I mean the artwork that you actually made, and not ripped from that ultimate sheet.

"Horrid."

submission: Madness Disturbance Pre

date: September 21, 2008

I can see a pattern of people reviewing these bad movies giving them a high score just because it is better than what they can do. That is plain stupidity, it does not mean that the movie is actually that good.
This was very bad, it was choppy, stiff, and the feet were animated very badly. They were away from the body, and they moved like, really rapidly. The feet were probably the worst thing about the movie, but pretty much ALL of the animation was choppy and speedy, if you are going to attempt animating on this frame rate, you need to learn how to animate with MORE frames. ALOT MORE.
The short, abrupt ending was also shit.

"It's movies like these that make me lose faith..."

submission: Madness Day 08 submission

date: September 20, 2008

that make me lose faith in Newgrounds.
THIS WAS HORRIBLE!
Man oh man, let's start now, shall we?
The hands were wrong, there were either two right hands, or two left hands, or a left hand was a right hand and a right hand was a left hand.
Learn how to arrange hands, seriously.
The body barely moved at all, despite having fired guns and swung swords.
It was choppy, stiff, arranged badly, and this movie leads me to believe you spent no more than over 2 days on it.
Go watch madness combat and learn off of that, learn that guns give kickback, kickback effects the hands and body, and learn how to arrange the hands.
