Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Special Effects]

Haha, well this was pretty cool, but short... and that's an excessive amount of links for something this small! Would've been cool with a series of shorts like this though, all in the same Flash. keep it going!

Agent64 responds:

Thanks for your support!
Sorry it's so short, it's just that with the amount of special effects to show in the video, the video's going to be short, no matter what. The excessive download links are just all of the special effects, plus a few more realistic ones that weren't seen within the video.

[Skin : A Pixel Nightmare]

This really could've been a game! It's pretty unique how the flow of the story continually reminds of something you'd be able to play. Picking up key items, meeting bosses (the one), occasionally having an encounter that progresses the story... and the end battle was a bit like Pokemon. Hmm, not as scary as it could've been. :P I llove the Pixel style though, the sound effects, the subtly grotesque sceneries... it's not apparent that the animations fully meant to mimic a game until the errors and key combinations set in though. As for the story, the further it progresses the more there seems to be behind it, an abortion? Or a deadborn child? A young woman fighting her sadness and regret; hurting herself and at the very last moment forgiving herself as she fades away into oblivion? That's how I perceive it, a bit sad and spooky, not very scary, but definitely nice work!

ClockworkPixel responds:

Wasn't going for a scary feel really just an uncomfortable watch kinda thing? The main story is up in the air for people to make what they want of it, i picture a misscarage but each person looks at it differently

[Qumi-Qumi "Solar Energy"]

Woo, another fun episode! Nice seeing a few new characters pop up in this one. As for the plot, it's still just as simple and genius as it always is, easy, tribal, futuristic fun. Keep it going!

Toonbox responds:

Thank you so much )))

[A Todo Vapor]

And thus, the impending Doom is halted! What a way. :P It's great how this animation doesn't need the language to convey the plot, simple; entertaining... with a happy ending too! Now how about an alternative English version of that description? :P Keep at it!

placitte responds:

Hahahaha, thanks Cyberdevil!!! Thank you for the feedback!!! I will translate the description!!! ;)

[Madness SWAT]

Woo, another great Madness animation! Twas a bit late for the day of mention, but definately better late than never! Great action, great variation, and detailed sceneries. I like the shading on the walls especially, maybe I just haven't thought about it earlier, but it seems that's something unique to this (even though it's just mostly the first and latter scenes... laziness? :P). That truck is drawn from a pretty weird angle, but... it's all good. Great watch; great to see Madness in a less static environment too. Keep it going!

Spaderz responds:

lol will do man!, thanks :D

[Good Citizen]

I've been waiting to see something like this! The biggest part is the information, but the animation backs it up nicely. At first there isn't much, just a symbol of innocence immersed in routine and blissful unawareness, but then things start happening. The way the car is used twice, and the president breaks free from the corporations... it's all very symbolic without need for extra words to explain the circumstances.

It's the truth too, but with multinational corporations ruling the world with propaganda and industry, there seems to be little a single individual can do. We need to unite and revolutionize the way society works, make it less monetary and more caring. I've been thinking so for a long time, but still the fact remains that after all's said and done and the temporary inspiration I get from this animation settles down, I'll just keep going about my habits as usual, not really attempting to reform the habitat I live in. Maybe when enough discontent amounts there'll be enough motivation to stir a change. I believe the problems are worse in certain countries though, were there is so much more potential for large corporations to influence the power structure, and fortunately I don't think I live in one of those... yet.

Anyway, great work, it's an animation with a moral and a call to afterthought, not to mention the ending really fits the season. Keep it going!

KiWiArts responds:

Reading reviews like yours make the creation of the short so much more rewarding.
Sure it’s always nice to get good critiques, but for me it’s more about seeing that people start thinking about what they just saw.

Thank you.
And to you too, keep going to review other’s work with so much effort and time.

[White Noise Commercial]

Hmm... a YT video embedded within Flash? I didn't realize this in previous submissions, until the YT play button popped up. That's a pretty unique approach! As for the commercial, it's great as always. Professional voice acting, animating, and a crazy wholesome idea. Keep it going!

ADASport responds:

Hey, thanks. We agree that it's great and always and we think your comment was also as great as always. Let's pat each other on the back!

[Nick and Will Halloween N]

Aw kids, haha. That ending was just totally unpexpected... and the dialog after the end. Short, yet just crazily genius. I love the way the kids faces turn out to be... bearded faces IOW not very kiddish at all. It's like a mixture of Stopmotion and South Park... in terms of animation, the voice acting is something else! Nice work.

DeadWeightPictures responds:

Hey, thanks for the awesomely well written and thought out reviews. It is very much appreciated.
