[Kid Niki: Ambush]

Great sprite movie

A nice short sprite movie! I've seen most competition movies back then, and yours is really good. As a sprite animator myself, i love the different technique's used here ( the different camera-angles for example ). The dialogue at start is quite funny about the mr smith wannabe ninja dude ! I do think the action could have been a little bit better and longer perhaps.
The ending was good...it suprised me ! Good job on this !

Techneon responds:

Yeah, I realize now that one camera angle action scenes are pretty crappy looking.

Thanks for the review

[A Mario Short (VGE)]

Sprites will always rock !

Hey dude ! Nice short movie, didnt expect it was Toad ! LOL
Keep up the good work !

[Escape to Snow Path II]

Excellent sprite work !

Great sequal to ETSP ! I love the way you use different viewpoints, nice camera work ! :)
The footstep sounds were a great addition, just like the different voices.
The actionscene in the end was awesome, the effects you used were great. Again, a nice piece of work man ! hope to see part III soon !

[In The Sand]

Good !

Good movie, Foxcato !
I like it how you animated everything along with the music. It really fits the song ! Although this is a good music videoclip, I still think it's certainly not one of ur best movies. I really miss shading in this one. Other then that, i was quite impressed about this movie. Great job !

Foxcato responds:

I'm glad you liked it mate:)You might be right about the shading... I might do something about it if the urge should suddenly strike me...

[zombie sprites - MANA]

Pretty kewl !

Nice idea and cool sprite animation. I like the part when Randi shows up and kicks ass. Later on, when he drops down to get his sword and fights the zombies, that was awesome too! You really put some effort into that ! Great job ! And you're rite, ur score is waay to low. It sure deserved a lot higher. you get a 5 from me ! Keep it up !

[Grey In Grey]

Good movie !

Good movie, Foxcato ! But i'll be honest...its not as good as ur previous ones. Its still a great one on its own. The music didn't fit in my opinion....but then again, i guess it's hard to choose a song that fits. The graphics of the "bad guy" ( so to say ) were awesome. I liked the way he was drawn. The fill-up in his body was sweet too. His eyes were cool, i remember you telling me that you wanted to change ur style of drawing eyes....it worked out great here ! Nice story too, I guess he was trying to make everybody depressed and froze time for them...leaving them just like that. Hmm.....wish i could do that ! Good luck in future and congratz on the award !

Foxcato responds:

Thanks man...
I'm glad you enjoyed it. You're right... but its all good... you see... it only took me 4 days to complete it, and as you know i usually spend a month or sometimes longer on a film, before its completed.
The music... yeah... well I had a hard time finding music for it this time, and that song was the only 1 i thought would fit it. Some people think it did, and others... well yeah... they don't think it fit.
I'm glad you liked the
character-design. I was eksperimenting a lot with it this time.
Thanks. Actually i didn't think I would get an award this time... but it seems I was lucky, and so I am quite satisfied:)

[Super Mario: Toads Rage 3]

haha weird episode

This episode was bit weird compared to 4 and 5. But it's still a good one. Ur drawings are kickass. I like the expressions on toad's face. yoshi was sad...he only wanted to play ! LOL

[Super Mario: Toads Rage 4]

LOL !

Nice finishing move on bowser ! And princes toadstool was relly ugly. I'm glad she fell and got her skull smashed. Anyway, another good movie. Ive seen "Toads Rage 5" first...after this review i will go to 3 ...etc ! LOL pretty awkward huh ? ah well...I already know he's gonna kick the shit out of yoshi !
Oh, one thing. This movie relly needed sound FX. I am glad you put sound fx in episode 5. good improvement !

[Super Mario: Toads Rage 5]

Cool !

Great movie ! I like the action scenes, cool punches and kicks. The way Toad is drawn is awesome, he really looks evil ! :)
And i'm glad that mario got his ass wiped ! That'll teach him ! good job. This is the first movie I've seen of ur collection. I check out the other 'Toad's rage" movies now. Keep up the good work !

mchawking responds:

Thanks Roger!

[Burn Baby Burn]

The first 3 movies were kickass...but the rest ...

Wow...i was really impressed by the first 3 movies. FoxCato, Jack Skellington and Heretik. You guys did a really good job on it and really put efford in it. The last 2 movies, i'm sorry to say, but it really sucked and it kinda ruined the movie in overall. You guys should have kept the best movie till the end. I bet the score would be much higher.
I like the drawing style of FoxCato and Jack Skellington. Very good.

Other then that, keep up the good work !

J-Smooth responds:

The first three authors give their thanks :)
