Nylo's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Noob Sticks PT. 1]

What a shame, you'd just got my attention.

Damn, that was just getting good. Towards the end was when I was really starting to get into it...then it ended. It was really short. The stick animation is smooth and surprising, the way it should be. Nice random violence; it has that massive violence without thinking twice about it kind of tone. Pretty cool, but way too short.

ChaotixWarKid responds:

Yea, i ran out of ways for stick figures to die. I'll probably make a part 2 with alot more.. aiming for atleast a minute =/ thats real long for a 20 fps frame-by-frame animation O_o

Nothing great, could be a lot better.

Well, as far as shooting games go, ths one was pretty bland. There just wasn't enough change or surpise in here to make me want to keep playing. Sfx are really imporant in shooting games. Gunshots, grunts, blood splatters, good stuff like that. Having to shoot people only in the head is kind of tedious. You could make it so their needs to be more hits in any area besides the head to take a baddy down, but only head shots gets monotonous. Having to reaload is pretty cool, it gives out that survival edge. Having badies movie or get forced back when you shoot them is always welcome as well. Those are a few things I've noticed from really great shooting games on NG. Good luck should you continue trying to improve.

Thank you for the tips!

[Hunter X Trailer]

Woah, what's going on?

It's kind of interesting to see Flash artists out there in the race to tap into 3d. While I like the concept, I have idea what your movie is about whatsoever. It's almost like you did this just to see if you could pull off a 3d movie clip. It gives no exposure to the plot or main character (if it did, I didn't notice him). The visuals were kind of jotty and the animation was on the choppy side. It just didn't make for a very good overall effect.

I hate to sound uptight...

..really, I do. In all honesty, I completely and utterly agree with you. If people could take jokes a lot easier, we'd be a lot better off. However, the problem lies in people that are too stupid to understand this humor. That's when you the dipshit racist guys coming in here saying really stupid stuff supporting the movie and using it for their own ends, which really pisses other people off and looks bad on you. Yes, it's stupid, but it happens all the time. I wish it weren't like that at all. Your visuals and audio choice are excellent, I just fear that the stupid little racist suburban pre-teens who think they know everything will capitalize on it. For what it's worth, I thought it was hilarious.

[I COME IN PEACE]

Astounding.

What an amazing concept for art you have, Xavier. This is yet another mind-blowing closer look into our own world you seem to have such an incredible talent for tapping in to. The visuals were amazing, so much detail and personal touch to them; they were great. Your audio really made this movie come alive for me, birds chirping and such. I gave you high marks in interactivity for those stellar extras at the end, great stuff. All in all, a great movie with more to it than meets the eye. Great job, Xavier.

[The Clock Show Ep 1]

Good ol' Pineapple, when will he learn.

Another nicely made flash movie. The animation is SBC when was talking was great (the bouncing and smiling...as far as smiling goes with clocks). Great use of audio, I loved that t.v intro part, funny as hell. Oh, great preloader, too. Kept me entertained. Nice job, I loved it.

MonkeyClock responds:

Just wait for episode 2. DigitalLemon makes a big red button that will blow up the Clockagon BUT DON'T TOUCH IT!!
Oh how the sparks will fly ^_^

[Megamans Last Request]

A bit typical.

While I always enjoy a good megaman movie, it was a bit typical of a sprite movie. Though, I do see it was your first entry, so I'll keep that in mind. The way you animated your visuals is a really good start. I like that you had him jumping over things, walking down ramps, and going into different scenes and backgrounds; it makes the character and the world more real. Though there were a few sprites, like Dr. Light, that looked a bit squished or stretched. The sfx were nicely choesen, nothing too weird or out of place. The style is kind of iffy because the story is a bit off. Megaman or Light shouldn't exist during the Maverick time frame. And then it was a Robot Master that ended up showing up instead of a Maverick. The ending was kind of a thump too, just too basic for something so drawn out. Oh well, it was a nice first attempt, really good for this point in the game. Keep on practicing, hope to see more of your work in the future.

[The last Cheeto]

Classic.

Ah, happens to me every time I'm running out of cheetos with friends too. The whole idea was great, very laid back and creative. That bicycle kick in the air was funny as hell. Tradjic ending, though. I feel the pain.
