Nomader's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[jumping turtles]

After your recommendation

Last month, I watched your flash "the special present", and I asked you for a recommendation for another one of your flashes to watch. You pointed me in this direction-- very good call. This flash is fantastic, beautiful, and just shows how much dedication you bring to your work.

I wasn't really sure what to expect once it started, but I loved the sort of abstract nature of the turtle's journey. The erased previous frames actually made the entire thing look very cool, as it looked as though you were looking at something traveling through time-- almost an after-burner of the turtle's journey, seeing what once was. Fantastic stuff.

The fact that you did that like 1,000 times is immensely impressive, and I'm just fascinated by the quality of the artwork. This is great work, and you were definitely right to direct me here. Well done.

Out of curiosity, how long did this take you to make? I'm just kinda curious I guess.

turtleco responds:

it took nearly exactly a month. Keep in mind that I wasn't working non-stop. I worked in maybe 5-8 hours per weekend and maybe an extra 2-4 over the week. It could have been made in 2-4 days if I really worked hard. I just wanted to do something relaxing and therapeutic, and it turned out great apparantly.

Also, I'm glad my recommendation led you to enjoy this flash, hope I can make more stuff you can enjoy in the future.

Sucks to be him

Haha that was indeed, quite brilliant. I loved how the suspense grew throughout the flash, to be honest, I was rather afraid it was going to be something pretty disgusting based on how you had been building.

And then he took it out, and I chuckled a good bit. Fantastic work and very well animated.

Looks like I should check out some of your other stuff... any recommendations on what I should look at first?

turtleco responds:

I'm really glad I could make you chuckle, and I'm glad you ryeally liked my flash

recommendation:

jumping turtles is fairly popular

[Red vs. Grey part 1]

Great!

This was a great submission with a wonderful sense of humor that suffered from one humor:

It happened too late.

At first, I really didn't like this one too much. the black backgrounds didn't stretch out far enough to cover everything, and the animations weren't that good at first.

But, then the fight scene happened.

You parodied the all-too-common rap song (... it's awful), and you used, frankly, amazing effects to get the blurs in and such. It looked great. :D

The humor in the last section along with the great animating was enough for me to give it a high score -- nice job!

[The REAL NG Rules]

I'm honored. xD

Oh, it's on! (Heh.)

Unlike mine, which was just me being lazy and making a big motion tween, yours is actually really funny. :D

I liked how the text moved much, much slower so you could actually read it in yours, and I enjoyed the list. Mine was mostly the opposite. The real NG rules were all interesting -- the NG rules I used weren't. :P

It's an honor for my half-a-day-to-make flash (Flash glitched on me) to be parodied already -- thanks a bunch! Still, if you ever watch the flash I made, you'll realize that it stops in the middle...

Nice job -- look out for the amazing sequel to my flash, "The NG Rules: The Sequel". It'll be amazingly boring.

Grumio responds:

Oh ppppsssshhhh, this is just one big motion tween too, lol.

I think the text might actually move at the same speed, it's just that your text was smaller so more of it was on the stage at one time -> making it look faster.

I might be able to help you with that if you want.

:D. Beef the sequel up with random NG images fading in and out in the background.
