Cyberdevil's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[The RobotWars Zero]

Great!

A nice interlude to the popular seres, heh. Good graphics, good animation, smooth movement and a plot that beats all others as well. Looking forward to more of hese! Keep up the great work!

-cd-

RicPendragon responds:

Popular series? I doubt that I'm afraid, the series was cancelled cos of its low popularity.

[The RobotWars Episode VII]

Great!

Another nice episode filled with fighting and spirtes. The quality seems a bit lower in this though, and the scenery isn't quite completly, but other than that it's a good episode. Looking forward to many more. Keep up the good work!

-cd-

RicPendragon responds:

Episode VII, this was the true turning point, I really started to understand some good techniques around this point in time.

[The RobotWars Episode V]

Good!

Another nice episode! Good graphics, good animation and a great variational battle. Looking forward to seeing many future episodes of this. Keep up the great work!

-cd-

RicPendragon responds:

This was my favourite planned episode, when I first wrote the script, I planned so much more than I could preform, if you watch my Unfinished Showreel, you can see scenes from Episode 5 Redux (remake)

[The RobotWars Episode IV]

Woo!

ANother great episode in a nice series of sprites! Good and clean graphics as usual, smooth animation and nice battle techniques. I like the choice of audio too. Keep it going!

-cd-

RicPendragon responds:

ah yes, my addiction the Final Fantasy music really shows in some of my animations, especially The RobotWars series

[The RobotWars Episode III]

Great!

Another episode, and even better than the previous one! Heh, you improve fast! I wonder how long the flow will last. Keep up the great work!

-cd-

RicPendragon responds:

Ahh Episode 3, my big hitter, this is where I really started to get better, and I do improve fast (fast learner) but I can never tell if I'm better or not, that is for the audience to decide, and even if I can improve, its nothing without a strong story, which I believe this series had after I started writing the scripts (Episode 5 onwards)

[The RobotWars Episode II]

Good!

Another great episode in the series! Already looks better than when it first started out, nice battle, nice moves, nice sprites. Keep up the good work!

-cd-

RicPendragon responds:

Its been a while since I actually visited my animation roots and watched RobotWars, at this point in time, I was starting to understand flash a little better, and able to do more.

[The RobotWars Episode I]

Great!

Looks like the birth of a great series! Nice clean sprite graphcis, varied movies and good scenery. It's a bit short though, and not very goodly optimized. Looking forward to seeing future improvements. Keep up the good work!

-cd-

RicPendragon responds:

Wow, never thought I'd see a review for this ever again, I mean its been over a year since the last review, I can't even remember how long ago I made this...
Its a shame you had to pick a dead series to follow tho, I never finished episode 9, and I doubt I ever will, hope episodes 0-8 are fun for you instead.

Well onto a real reply.

I liked the idea of this series back way back when I started, it was a very early animation, hence the wobbly sprites, bad optimization and shortness, I have learned alot over the following...3 years is it now? If you really wanna see my best work, watch some of my other stuff, Sonic 15th seems to be my biggest hit, and with a sequal in the works (still) and Metal Triad is good if you like action I suppose, my Earthworm Jim Collab seems to have my highest score, thats always a good sign, and if you like The RobotWars, check out the opening titles I planne to use from Episode 10.

[The RobotWars Ep VII: DX]

Woo!

Loks like I found myself a nice series that I previously have been missing out on, heh, lots of nice sprite action in this, varied movie and good clean scenery. Keep it going! I'll be looking at the previous eps now.

-cd-

RicPendragon responds:

RobotWars VII: Directors Cut, I added a few cut scenes, improved optimization and sound exporting, and still has one of my fave fight scenes I've ever made.

[7 short films by JoelG]

Great!

A nice collection of short movies, all of them qith unique concepts and results. Great stuff, lots of entertainment in this, keep up the good work!

-cd-

MrBigStick responds:

thanks. i animate when i feel like it, and stop when i'm sick of it. it's an easygoing attitude, but i used to pull all nighters and stress out over flash. now i take it easy.
