i've seen this on monkeehub a long time ago, as I believe it was a nominee for some animation award. Still amazing as always, though a little surprised to see this on newgrounds, as this isn't really the kind of site you see really professional animation on for obvious reasons that this is more a pop-culture community as opposed to an animation community. The most striking part of your piece is of course I'm sure you intended it to be, the morphing/building of the scenes and scene sets, very smooth. Great work!

i'm sorry, the background gradient colors were really nicely done, and the animation was ok, it's just that the characters and objects were just really sloppy and not well done. The characters looked so unfinished, like test drawings, and not good ones either. That kind of test drawing look you had looked especially bad when you combined it in scenes with fully drawn and colored in objects like the coffin, it just looked like laziness to me. Also, a few things ruined the mood, like the obnoxious Newgrounds license plate in their, it seems like every flash nowadays is getting branded with NG somewhere in it. Also you misspelled 'loneliness' which you could have easily looked up.
Aside from that, I thought it was going to be just another one of those stories where you see the life of one person from birth to death that's really unoriginal, but i did like the fact that you had the stories of the different generations intertwined, that's something I haven't seen before. Ok piece just put a bit more effort in.

Hey thanks for your review, its probably the most intuitive review i've seen in a while... Yeah I keep forgetting to fix the spelling error, the character drawings were of choice, in a way they kinda were WIP's but the people that I showed to said they perferred it that way. If I was to do everything in full color, I was afraid it would have brought away from the meaning. But who knows.
Thanks for the review and vote.

my good sir what you have done here is not only the epitome of science it is the epitome of the world itself. Having combined two forces of the greatest caliber you have decidedly unleashed an evil so unspeakably evil yet blatantly obvious that it is a miracle no man has discovered this until now. Now, onto the main thesis;
This creation was indescribably different from any sort of indescribable sort of mess I have seen in my lifetime. It was at its uttermost peak, and could not have been thought of better without the proper licensing of a full-time psychiatrist. It is clear here you know your facts about the human body and have therefore combined your efforts in a collaboration of the mind to present this amazing, jaw-dropping spectacle for mankind. You have been fruitless in your efforts, and now it is only the community who is at fault for not rewarding you with endless riches.
It appears to me that anybody who does not agree with the stated quote in this project, and I quoth, "He who does righteous unto his disciples will have righteous done unto him", Is an utter moron, led to believe in his own stupidity. These people, namely 'SUPAOWNER' need to be more elaborate in their ways of discussion, for if you can not raise a good debate in the argument, you are but one of many who have fallen into the sad trap of consciencelessness.
In this brief (but rewarding) essay, I have summarized all of J.P. Willinger's main ideas, points, and descriptions and have clearly crowded them into three small paragraphs. I hope you will attain as much knowledge as I did out of this project, and to all of you who are unwilling to go about your days in harmony, I say good day to you!

well first of all this is way overrated but I would expect that
There's not much interesting here in terms of graphics, plain, simple, and sometimes bad drawings. No shading, lighting, etc. The animation was ok but would look a lot better if the graphics were half decent, even if that's what it was supposed to look like.
It looks like you tried too hard on the humor, too. Everybody talked really fast and snake was really angry all the time, so it sounded kind of forced. It was ok, but nothing great.

so there are 7 reasons why this is bad and each one takes off a point from the score of perfect 10
1. Lack of originality- oh cool somebody going around killing lots of people must have taken a lot of thought
2. Lack of style- no limbs, almost circular hands, dull bodies, and the heads are just circles with crosses on them if you don't count accessories
3. Lack of plot- Now plot isn't important for every animation, but if you want to have an animation without plot, you at least want to have style and originality going for you. If that isn't there, i don't want to watch it the whole way through
4. Pointless violence- I must be the NG antichrist here, but I don't appreciate pointless violence. It's about as funny/cool as pointless swearing, so if you're going to have mass violence a plot is definitely needed.
5. Same as all the other episodes- This is more than lack of originality. Hell, sprites lack massive amounts of originality, but if there's a sprite series if you're lucky at least the episodes might have a little difference to them, even if they are still pure shit. Every single episode of madness looks exactly the same.
6. Sickening- It's sad that so many people would enjoy 5 minutes of just pure gore with no purpose. Makes me wonder if you yourself are like this. Animations such as these have been known to be created by school shooters you know!!!!!!
7. Boring- Nothing to hold my attention, for pretty much all the reasons listed above.

certainly more visually interesting than your other stuff, more stylish and fun to watch.
I enjoyed this music video over many of your normal animations with dialogue, as this one looked much cleaner and artistically better.
good job

great style and textures. Haven't seen anything much like this stylisticly before, with the paper textures and whatnot. Great flash.

Yeah, I personally enjoyed how they turned out myself, definitely adds some much needed variety to the backgrounds. Thanks!

great backgrounds and character animation, also hilarious story.
what's the credits music called? I have that song stuck in my head sometimes and it bugs me to no end not to know the name of that song
Author's Response:
Jungle Boogie, yo! I'll have to add that to the audio credits.

been a fan since the first, they just get better and better. Amazing atmosphere built with sounds and great imagery.
Author's Response:
i think there will probably be more, but I decided to design it so that there doesn't have to be another installment afterwards. That way if I don't get around to another game, this one will still make SOME sense. There's nothing worse than artists who plan out whole elaborate series, but then burn out after a couple of installments!
Anyways, if you or anybody who is reading this wants there to be more, just remember to give it a high rating (it makes a huge difference to whether or not I make more), and PLEASE SUBMIT IT TO THE EXPERIMENTAL COLLECTION!
Thanks for the review!
