JRamble's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Curse - Opening (Creditless)]

Animation fits the music and looks good. More could be happening though, a lot of the imagery was really confusing. It was fine at the beginning, but it got more confusing as it went on. It's an opening so it's a bit out of context, but some of the motion or what was happening was just plain confusing. Still has a good feeling to it just feel like it needs more polish or clarity.

[Spinstravaganza]

Good, solid animation. great fluid motion. There's a nice amount of variation in what the character is doing, lots of different actions.

[Space Exploration Horror Game - Teaser (Early Alpha)]

Interesting. Looks good, didn't see very much action. Not I expected much action from this game, it's a horror game not your average space game, but not much happened. when playing the actual game that's fine being in an empty atmospheric area is creepy and eerie, but for a game trailer it doesn't work that well. The game has a good atmosphere both with audio and visuals.

Vilehead responds:

Thank you :D Well there will be action but mostly build around tension and quick decision making. Because The combat will be rather fast-paced but short. Like a real life knife fight, 1-2 stabby-stabby and you're dead. So its not like WoW tanking a boss for 30 minutes. But about avoiding, using your surrounding to your advantage, retreat when you feel your opponent is more than you can chew. Sneaking up to your enemy, leading him away from the prize. Feeling up your opponent tempo and countering it with proper tactic.

For my defense - the game is in development in 3 weeks+. So I am mostly showcasing the overall vibe of the game. What can you expect in that field? Try out my previous game, Antumbra. I know its a totally diffrent genre but the atmosphere is around the same corner. Surreal.

There is sooo very much more I want to tell and show. But then again - I cannot right now. Due to two main reasons. First, I am just one guy. I am doing this all by myself. And if I put all the cards on the table at this point - anybody can take them and make them their own. 2nd - I like suspires. :) I want to caught you off-guard. Hit you from an angle you last expect the strike to come. I am aware, it comes with a price of me not being able to create much of buzz before the game is done but... oh well. Its a price I am willing to pay. Thank you for stopping by Juersh! :D Being able to interact with you guys is what keeps my gears spin.

[Towers Of Collision: Opening]

Good stuff. Well animated, good looking characters. loved the music, especially when the beat picked up at the end. The background drawing of the mountain at the beginning looked off though. It looked better when you redrew at 0:30 it just fit the overall style better. I would like to see more of this.

[South Park Characters play League of Legends]

Voices were a bit off. It doesn't matter too much if they don't sound exactly like the show, but the voice acting was a bit stiff, just get more into it make it more believable or emotional. It was still funny though. Reminds of the warcraft episode.

storytellerYT responds:

Thanks, I tried my best for this video

[Define Intervention]

Amazing. The production value of this is great. Everything fits together so well, music, animation, and voice acting, are all done really well, and it made me laugh. Great work.

Also, saw that BMO reference.

[Samurai Cat]

Compared to most of the other loop animations this one has a lot more cutting in it. I think that's good thing, though, the cutting is done well. It shows that there is an understanding of motion from scene to scene where things still look like they are moving in the same direction even though they are shown from different angles, that's not an easy thing to do.

[the Last of the Dashkin]

I love brackenwood. The animation is really clear and at the same time detailed. The narration was good, but I feel it kinda went against the whole silent story telling that the other shorts did really well. It helped to flesh out Bitey as a character and what kind of situation he's in, and tell some lore which is really hard to do silently. I just feel that I would have like it better if it told Bitey's story silently or at least leaving something to be interpreted.
