I don't mind the lack of movement, that's a legitimate animation style. The caricatures aren't recognizable without the Game Grumps voices. Not the art style itself, but the facial features and their bodies. That's seriously bringing the quality down. If the characters looked more accurate, then this cartoon would've been fine. Thanks for sharing, and keep practicing, you'll make some cool stuff in the future for sure.

Thanks for the criticism.
will definitely take it into consideration,

Fine material here. Thanks for sharing! The animation's clean and crisp. Some ways to improve this cartoon though. A bit hard to understand the dialogue, maybe some captions/subtitles would help. If I got this right, the plot was in Nigeria, commercial corruption or infrastructure within the workplace? Something about Nigerian government?

Speaking of voice acting, not sure what audio program you use, but if possible look for a "Noise/Fuzz Removal" feature. I hear a faint drone noise in each dialogue which makes this cartoon seem more amateur try Googling for "Audacity Software". It's a free but very elaborate and useful software that has that noise removal filter feature.

Greetings from America. I would rate higher if I really understood the plot, but I could not due the mix of dialect and background noise in the dialogue. Nevertheless, this is a good addition to Newgrounds and please keep sharing :)

chubbyswit responds:

Thanks, I'm so happy for the critique. I'm an amateur in animation and I'm also trying to improve everyday. I used audacity for the voice recording. I'm still working my way around sound editing and hopefully will get better with time. Thank you so much

Not sure if the voice over's from an actual anime. Cute video and the animation style simple but fitting. Keep practicing, you'll definitely be making some cool toons in due time!

Rio07 responds:

Thanks! :)
actually im practicing with more stuff!

Ah, reminiscent of the Xiao Xiao cartoons of yester-year :) What's killing it is two things. The character movements are rigid; Google a book called "The Animator's Survival Guide" it'll help tons and browse NG's archive for flash tutorials. Also, the ending's abrupt. He pulls the scythe and vanishes? It's lackluster due to the lack of music.

Consider adding more. For example, why exactly is the protagonist hunting these men and who are the enemy men to begin with? Even without dialogue or music, you could begin the animation with a intro scene that explains the reason for the violence.

Keep practicing, I'm sure you'll get there in due time. Thanks for sharing.

KennenReady responds:

Thank you very much

You're a fine amateur voice actor! I think Johnny Frost needed more gristly vocals and the "sassy black girl" for Sato probably just needs practice. When you do Sato, I'm not totally immersed like when you do the other characters in the reel. Great work otherwise, and thanks for sharing!

RodCaster responds:

Thank you so much on your feedback. These are some of the projects i've done over the year of 2017. What i've shown are some of my earliest works. I want to post my demo reel on here soon.

Nicely done. The plot twist was cliche and cheesy my taste, but your art and animation style is unique; cool and good. Good work.

Moh-Danath responds:

Thanks. Appreciate the feedback. Sorry, you found the plot twist cliche and cheesy. I guess the old "enemy getting the upper hand, fall in the spikes" trope is a little over used, ain't it?

I see there's a moral of story. Seems more like a comic book, you should leave buttons to go to the next scene/keyframe instead of giving a timer. I chose fast reader and as was staring at the screen next time. It's hard to enjoy without music or some sort of ambient noise or sound effects. It's a fine story, but I had to give up right before the big sword fight because I found this boring.

You should keep practicing for sure. This flash'd be better if it had page flips instead of a timer. The action-script is simple too, if I remember it's something like "stop();" and the page flip buttons like movie-clips and that's "gotoandPlay(frame number of scene here);"

Gheata responds:

Thank you for the amazingly encouraging rating that totally backs up your words.
In order to collab on newgrounds I need first a project published :D Next one might have music, etc. Maybe.

Good for you on taking up animation! I can see the inspiration for the plot. There's a game shop far from me and it was always fun to come back home with a cool new game. It's your animation, but I'd suggest subtitles instead of speech bubbles if you want people to be able to read what they're saying.

The effort can be seen. Keep practicing, you'll get better! Also, what song are you using? Do you have the artist's permission to use the music?

kamverse responds:

Thank you so much! The song is Daft Punk - Digital Love (Instrumental)

That was dark. Animation was nicely done too. I personally don't like dark Disney fiction, but this was well put together, so that's why 3.5 stars.

FlumpyTripod responds:

Yeah, the dark Disney stuff is pretty cliche, but I don't know, I just felt like making it. Thanks.

Good

The artwork is good and the animation is decent but you do notice the lip sync is abit off. Also you can change the sound quality so it sound better to.

Devilduk responds:

It wasnt off sync when I made it only after I Posted it. If you have any suggestions on how to stop that I am opened

I used to animate flash cartoons as a teen, but now I compose contemporary orchestral and classical music. Instruments I Play Guitar, Ukulele, and Clarinet/Bass Clarinet.
