Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hate Takes a Holiday : Foamy The Squirrel]

Foamy never takes a holiday at least. :) Happy Days Illwillpress! Always entertaining rant with melodical finish.

[Where's the Bird Watching Club?]

That 666th room. XD It really was like another world... it's those small/short/unexpected little things in these animations that turn into so big things that turn these little things into so big THINGS, y'know? Plus the casual entertainment overall, of course.

I learned a new things about squids too. Good stuff.

[Spoople Knows: Presentation Day]

I had indeed forgotten, if I ever really knew,
so a thanks for reminding! To Spoople, to you.

It's that time of year now, when snow falls on the moon,
and I'm thoroughly impressed, by the background in your room.

The poetry was awesome, and catchy, and true,
And the view that came with it? I'll give it... more than two.

Thanks for the wisdom and entertainment, on cue:
Happy Presentation Day! And a toodeloo

[Yonder Ho! - Curse of the Calamari Queen (Chapter 4)]

That modern day gender role shizzle. XD And the intermissions are back! Seems there won't be any major downside to these shorter segments after all. Still jumps a bit, but when it's all said and done it's all sentient fun too. Interesting new characters popping up in the plot too... Gemini seems friendly. :3 Been thinking restaurants for pets might be a pretty good sell but maybe they actually already exist somewhere...

Looking forward to the next Chapter!

Bertn1991 responds:

This one was my favorite segment to work on so far. I'm glad you enjoy the little intermission parts returning :)

Hmm, pet restaurants. Let's make it happen!

[Yonder Ho! - Curse of the Calamari Queen (Chapter 3)]

Talking about short segments of the episode. XD This was...really short!!!

But fun. And cool octopus laser effects.

But really short.

[Yonder Ho! - Curse of the Calamari Queen (Chapter 2)]

Impressive detail on/in that van, and that Big Smoke impression HELL YEAH! :D Gotta fiven just for that. As for the story though: those tentacles seemed like a bit of a thing but suddenly they're just on that cat riding right out of there with a very non-threatening tentacle backdrop hmm...

The flashback effects hmm... is that maybe After Affects? Some other alternative filter? You're getting places with the audio filters too! :D Just a little bit inconsistent volume work there.

Wonder if the chopped up episode method makes for more or less inconsistencies... so far a fun journey though. Just needs to be sensible inconsistent IMO. Red threads.

Bertn1991 responds:

Thanks for watching, good sir. Very happy the Big Smoke impression was appreciated. Sometimes you just need two number 9s, a number 9 large, a number 6 with extra dip, a number 7, two number 45s, one with cheese, and a large soda.

No After Effects. It's just a fancy plugin I found for Sony Vegas ^.^'

[Yonder Ho! - Curse of the Calamari Queen (Chapter 1)]

Man I really liked the longness of the earlier episodes. XD Each one felt almost like a movie rather than a series, never a 'to be continued' at the end of it (well maybe there was but still, they were longer...) just the full experience right away. You rarely get those kinds of wholesome experiences these days, and the intermissions were fun bursts of creative endeavor too.

Not sure I actually felt that way before but in retrospect it does feel like everything's getting split up in smaller chunks these days, just like the pace keeps getting faster, time doesn't seem to be in such surplus you ever get a chance to really appreciate things the way you did, but anyway, I can do with this too, moving on...

Tentacles out of nowhere, intriguing character passing on the beach, the paintings on the wall, the color and all, it always gets pretty unique with this series! :D Been missing the humor too. Good to see y'all keep going.

Regarding the art style: is it still all down in Paint? New version of Paint? Seems to be changing.

On my way to part two...

-cd-

Bertn1991 responds:

Thank you, thank you. These reviews are much appreciated. Rest assured, the old format of super long episodes is returning!

As for the art, I now use Photoshop for the most part, and it's all animated in Sony Vegas. It's not made for animation, but whatevs ^.^'

Thanks again <3

[FLOOD GRIEF]

I love the style here. Main character reminds me a bit of Konoko, or Motoko, but apart from the visuals the description tells the story better than the animation itself... is it a teaser? A glimpse of something bigger to be announced? Would like to see more. To actually see the story through the animation.

AuroraPLZ responds:

Thank you! I dont intend on making any more content of this universe. At least for the time being :) As it is only me working on it. Corners had to be cut to finalize it, but I am happy to see people can enjoy it for what it currently is!

[Big Wumpas]

Well that was fun. XD Crash Bandicoot style spot on too.
