I haven't written a review in a long time, but this was so wonderfully conceived, created, and executed that I couldn't contain my enthusiasm. I don't really know what to say: the animation was smooth, nearly flawless; the music was excellent (particularly how you matched it with the animation); the plot, while simplistic, was nonetheless nicely done for a few-minute cartoon. Really, I don't think I could give enough praise to do this justice. Rest assured, it is now at the top of my favorite's list (a very exclusive list).
I see you as having a promising career in animation, my friend. Let's just hope that some jerk on YouTube doesn't post your creation as his own.

"Excellently done, my friend!"
I love the style of your artwork. This story looks like it has a lot of promise. As a screenwriter with moderate success, my advice to you is to never give up when you're trying to get your movie made. :)
What really put it over the top was the music. The peacefulness it had made me want to continue playing again and again, even though it's nothing much more than a (very pretty) dress-up game. Which Cirque album did you get the music from?
In any event, this is a great idea and a great character creator game. Kudos!

Thanks.
The hardest part is to decide what to do with it. At one point I wanted to do a web comic, but I'm not that great of an artist. I dont have the time to do an animated film either. I've thought about a novel form, but have yet to write it out in any great detail.

That was one of the freshest, most creative animations I have seen in a long while. The timing for the sounds was off, but it was still a delightful thing to watch. I absolutely loved the way you utilized all the various elements. At points, I actually felt like I was moving that cursor! You should be proud of this. *Adds to favorites.* Kudos!

I'm Catholic, and just so you know, it's not really Catholics you need to worry about offending, seeing as Catholics are notorious for not focusing on Bible reading. ;)
The Flash itself was fine, a bit slow at parts, humorous at others. The animation was fairly good, and with some practice, I think it could get to be really good.

Wow. Wow. Wow. That was incredible. Not exactly sure how it makes Mario a commy, but wow regrdless. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this. In fact, I'm adding it to my favorites. You have a classic here. This is the kind of movie that reminds me why I watch Flash in the first place. Kudos!

This is brilliant. I've hated those ads since the first moment I scrolled over them. How ironic that with synthesized music in the background, something I hate so much can become something I truly enjoy.
The graphics were very smooth, almost hypnotic. The sound, as I said, was great. Overall, this was an excellent piece of work. You should make another, next time using those terrible voice clips they used during Valentine's Day. Those just made me sick!
Kudos!

It's pretty much the same problem that all submissions with System of a Down songs have. They always interpret the lyrics literally. SOAD's lyrics usually have a much deeper, circumventing meaning that most people tend to miss.
That said, this was a very good colab. Kudos.

I really enjoyed the style of the animation in this. Also, it was pretty funny! The only thing I'd say you need to improve on is the sound quality. Get some better microphones and you should be in good shape. (Also, I don't know if Master Chief was supposed to stutter like he did, but it was hilarious.) Kudos!

Thanks, the mics are prolly not my fault, but next time i'll go with better quality on my voice acters.

This was about as good as they get. This movie simply hit every nail on the head. I don't know where to begin. Well, let's start with graphics: Great! Clean, smooth, and thoroughly creepy. The wolf's grin near the end was spellbinding. The sound was great, as well; you have a good reading voice, and the Saw music at the end really made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Style was perfect as well. Really, I can find very few faults with this film. It's a class act all the way. Kudos!
