Stagnate's Reviews

[POWERLESS.fla]

These are very interesting to watch, I think it's okay to go out of the general design of what a madness combat animation has to be and just experiment with the layout of the film.

Nothing is simplified or explained but you still get hints and ideas of what things represent and mean in a great balance. This probably wouldn't speak to your common action-junkie and that is just fine, I think it is interesting enough in it's own way. People may say it's too obscure, but has has madness ever made any sense? This is like a dream within madness, I think you should expect it to be pretty obscure.

I think it´s pretty cool, great job.

Takes a good few rewinds to actually catch what's going on, and then to ACTUALLY catch what's going on. Great job, you still manage to stay ahead of yourself in a sense without going too far or slipping into an overused formula.

Moral: There are no competent and experienced animators anymore.

Seriously I'm not gonna lie, I fear that if krinkels were to watch this he would probably end his series, remove them from newgrounds and have them extinct for what you're doing to it's reputation. I think you know damn well all of your fans aren't animators and dont know scrap about it. The fact that I've missed making comments like this was almost unrelated to why I wrote this one. I wrote this because this is one of thefinest example possible of what collaborations are doing to Madness Combat. You're tearing it apart. You've made many great animators leave their posts and vanish. You've made many fans consider Madness being all about shooting some fucking guy and being plotless. And the fact that you're so ignorant that you can't even see how Collabs are boring, uncreative and that no one even wants to look at them with respect anymore is just terrible. I wish people like you would be the ones to quit Madness instead of experienced, effort making and actually good animators.

The intro was also very wierdly made, the background displayed as being made by a five year old and the animation was similar to mine when I started, too damn jumpy. It was also dull and old.
Oh I've missed making these comments. This was however just one last (?) because this collab was something I really couldn't walk by without spitting at.

Is it your comment. I do not intend to do with you somehow to talk about.

Hmmm...

I actually hate these types of games and i could barely stand playing this one, sure the art is great and the plot probably too but the tweening was awful and so was their movements.

But it seems like you putted alot of effort into it and many people likes it so you deserve a 7.

In future games, if you have to tween then ease it.
(this is just what i think and because i animate i notice all the wrong stuff animated in games i cant stand them.)

[The Beast: MDM]

Meh.

I'm sure u putted alot of effort into it, tho... it feels so wierd.

You need to work on the animation, effects and sprites.

The sprites made it look like it was from madness combat 1.

I'm sure you'll do better in ur next games.

[Destruction Time]

oh god i love the start

[Leisurely ragtime]

Congratulations, you stole a track we've all listened to multiple times. How does it feel to waste your time.

[The Pied Piper]

Ah yes.

This takes me back. It's too bad Immolation started to really suck cuz this would really have been perfect if i weren't such an awful animator back then

P.S. 00.35 is fucking amazing, doesnt matter how many times i hear that i love it as much every fucking time!

Anyways, keep it up man. Love your work.

I really liked immolation! but I know how we can be our own worst critics sometimes. If you ever finish it then please use this song. It was made for your video. Thanks for the 10!! This song wouldn't be here if you didn't ask me to make it...
