Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[MAN RETREAT (n00bs)]

Seems like there's at least one real MAN among them! XD So crazy... in a good way, though. The expressions remind me of South Park a bit, but the style: it's something new! With a cast like this I'm looking forward to seeing whatever else they might get into... great entertainment.

[8-Bit Viewer Request | Kassotis+]

Hey you even got DOOM in there! :D Impressive recreation of all those old classics, and I think there's only one I didn't recognize (the one with the platforms and the lone creature with the big jaw opening?). The animation's great, so much detail in certain scenes too, though the music, albeit pompous, doesn't really seem to fit. It also just fades in and out a bit plainly, no intro or outro or hint that it might be over soon... and most of all: the name. It doesn't seem to do this justice! I guess CDN might stand for something else than Content Delivery Network, but misleading acronym set aside the main thing's a bit generic. How about something like Retro Games Showcase? Nostalgia Games? Something that really speaks about what it is, and the request in the description.

Phew, long comment... but I feel like this has potential to really stand out more! The animation's great otherwise, just some presentational aspects that are lacking. Keep it going!

KassotisProductions responds:

Glad you enjoyed it! You're right the title should be something along the lines of "Retro Games" but we already did that in another video and this one wasn't originally planned. We were supposed to try four videos with four unique styles to gather feedback and see what works for us best and then sort of leave until we got better at it (we're super new to animation). This one is similar to one of the four titled "Retro Games" (the video where people actually asked for more) and it serves as a temporary goodbye until we return with something more complete and impressive. As for the simplicity of the format, for now we just wanted to focus on how people reacted to the animation style and not our storytelling. There will come a time though where we'll upload a full story with proper intro graphics, longer length and everything. Someone might agree that we shouldn't publish anything yet at this stage because we're still noobs but if you let people in your proccess and your practice you get stronger feedback and the final work becomes all the better for it. Thanks for watching and stay tuned!

[I Love Poo]

Really going all out with this one. XD Lovely song though...

[Really Good Asian Cooking Tutorial Video Thing]

Nothing bests that magical MSG flavor! :D Genius. Didn't think I could learn to cook Asian food this fast either. Suddenly... I just know how.

AcidX responds:

It really is that easy! Can you believe it!? Ha just make sure the heat is very high if you want it in 5 minutes!
* MSG optional

[Radioactive Chicken Heads "Tales From the Coop" music video]

Really enjoyed this one! :) The animation as much as the music, both suitably random all the while following the background story. Love the Ska-like vibe of it all, great energy, and the mix of 3D in some parts was a cool part of the animation too. Nice work!

WINprince responds:

Thank you very much!

[Oney Plays Animated: Mario Odyssey Theme Song]

Pretty good Oney Plays sketch! Fun song; smooth animation. Quality really varies between scenes though, and lipsync could use some improving. Keep it going!

Yassinius responds:

Yeah, I think what you're seeing is me learning to use Flash lol. This is my first Flash animation and it was a pretty long one at that. Animating a full minute was a real challenge! I'll set the bar a bit lower in the future and let quality be the main focus instead of quantity. Thanks for the review!

[GMSU 04-05-18]

Swedish tourists huh! XD Most relevant news I've heard in a while, and that is one talented duck! You're starting to wonder weather it really is a duck at all. Good stuff.

[Cuddly Noobz]

Don't think I ever played that game, but man, the animation... nostalgic. :D Takes me back to the old days of Flash when everything was so simple and fun! And considering age you really did a nice job with the fading trails and particle effects too. The space motion's there as well. Might have been ahead of its time if this was submitted back in its time. Intensity keeps building too. Entertaining.

[Ziggytron]

Bowie saves every day! :D What an awesome transformation though. Short but powerful; inspiring; I think I'ma listen to some Bowie after this...

[Comfortable]

I really did get into the groove with this one. :) Really comfortable... just having fun watching you fun, drawing, rambling... feels like this could become a whole new genre of video. Well, maybe it is... vlogs hmmm! In animated form though, or a hybrid like this, without speech, with just the music... it's calming in a different way. Nicely done! Relaxation achieved. I WAS feeling kinda stressed out before this...

CapaciousSpace responds:

I hope I helped you get your groove on, mein knackwurst

And that's a good way to describe the video. I didn't think about it like that which is pretty cool
