Surprisingly good

This is so much better than what I expected!!! This is stylish, the timing is great, it's funny as hell, and it's like 2-3 minutes long with a filesize of less than 200kb. Also, the graphics are cool and I like how you made the light effects to portray the look of the original game. Great, man...

Too serious

It's kind of boring. Too serious. I personnally think EVOLVRON deserves the daily feature award but this wasn't bad at all. This flash is like an animated book. The text is well written. But I hate reading so I didn't really like this. You should consider adding humor to the story. Even though I didn't like the music, it fits the movie and that's a lot better than adding music you like that's got nothing to do with the movie. About the animation, it's not the best frame to frame I've ever seen but it's not one of the worst either. I preffer the stylish motion tween when it's done right. But it took effort and it shows. It's a quality entry. It's just not my type.

Probably took effort

But the problem is that it's not funny. The storyline, whether you like it or not, is important. Graphics and smooth animation(which was this movie's strongest point) are extras but they make the movie more enjoyable. The storyline is the most important point in a Flash movie. In this movie, the storyline was just too weak for the movie to get a really high score. If you mix your amazing skills in Flash and a good story, you might make it into the top 50 of all time.

Original and pretty damn good

I thought it was going to be kind of crappy. But it's actually pretty funny and considerably original. I liked how every icon in the portal was put to good use. The animation was also great, which was even a bigger surprise, since I thought it was going to to be text and more text with stiff images moving. It wasn't. Overall, it was a well animated, dynamic, funny and original Flash movie. Congratulations. You get a 5 from me.

Not as good as MDM2

This movie is great. It's just not as good as MDM2. Mario has new dance moves, I love the part with the 2 Toads dancing with Peach, and I like the fact that in the end there was a "Coming Never" preview. Even though it's not as funny as MDM2, it's still one of my favourite Videogame director's cuts. Good job, as always.

Pretty cool...

But I prefer Ytown public. I noticed you used some of the music of Ytown public also(right in the begginning). Are you planning on making more episodes of Ytown public or are you going to stick to detective frofrog?

I also noticed you've changed your animation style. Personnally, I preffer the Ytown Public style. But this is also cool. Probably takes more time. A change is healthy. People get bored of doing the same thing all the time so I would understand if you gave up Ytown Public.

The music during this short is cool because it's kind of pathetic, like Neverhood chronicles, which is a good thing because that game happens to be one of my favourites. Probably you don't even know the game but it's still cool. It fits the short.

About the humour, it's basically a one-joke short. Is the detective frofrog series going to be like this? One-joke shorts? Or is it going to be more like Ytown public, with long episodes with lots of jokes?

OK... I think I've bothered you enough. Keep up the good work.

Thank you! It really nice to hear what you think. I'm chocked that you prefer the grafics of Ytown Public. I've used very different techniques, as you pointed out. Detective Frofrog will be much more like Ytown Public. A series with loads of jokes. But the grafics will be like these ones. Drawn frame to frame and with scanned real art JPEG's as backgrounds. It will take a LONG time before the first one is out! But hey! It took me a long to make this one as well and you still check out my stuff so, don't worry it'll come. Just be patient. The music was made by me, when I was in insane-mode. One night. Take care!

Hahahaha!!!!

Funny as hell! But you have a point about those crappy movies, though.

As for the music, it's NOT scary!!! I LOVE japanese pop. I BREATHE japanese pop!!!

Funny short...

But tottally crappy... I was surprised by seeing how crappy it was since I've seen better blammed flash movies than this one. Funny idea though...

THOMAS!!! You're back!!!!

Your last flash movie was made like 2 years ago! I'm glad you've come back to making Flash movies. It's a shame that this one isn't as cool as the other ones. But it still rules.

pyropymp responds:

Holy Cats, you must be an old-time NG'er! I didn't expect people would actually remember me! Anyhoo, I got something that will rock some socks when it comes out, will take more time though... Thanks for stickin' around!

That's great!!!

The only problem is it's lack of humor. I liked the brutality, since you have to discover how to do it. I found out the combination!!!
