I love your transitional style of graphics, from simple cardboard cutouts to the more traditional 2-d feel. The entire movie was polished and refined, overall just a great submission. Good job!

I was surprised by this one. Unlike a lot of the other Rock Out contest entries, there was a lot of polish, synchronization, and quality. I love the hold notes and the sound cutting out when you miss them. All-in-all, well put together, enjoyable to play. In a contest full of four-button slamming, your entry definitely stands out.

I died on my own guy. Is that ironic?

Anyway, awesome game for 4 hours. I like the reaction-based game quality without the twitch reflexes of something appearing on the screen, telling you to push a button. Nice job.

God I love Sonata Arctica.

Nice little flick you have there. A few of these installments would actually be a nice way to lead up to the release of Brawl.

My favorite Kenney game yet. The idea of warping the playing field is brilliant. I was underwhelmed at first, but once I saw the screen going nuts, man, great game.

"Best Idea in a Long Time"

What better sampling tool for new music then the Audio Portal mixer? This a phenomenal asset to Newgrounds, and I am so happy you developed it.

Currently, developers who want to explore new music have to delve deep into the audio portal chambers and click little buttons to load music one at a time. There is no way to set up a good playlist or to get a random song going everytime. But because of this system, we can have constant music loading from the Audio Portal.

I tried doing this yesterday at work, and I managed to get through a good 40 songs, and take down about 4-5 new ID's that I will be using in my future productions. All-in-all, this is one of the most helpful Flash submissions I have ever seen.

The interface is slick and complete. The graphics take on the appearance of any other wonderful media player, but beyond that. The UI is well placed and intuitive. The programming looks sophisticated and well thought-out. If music is not loading for some reason, it understands to go to the next song. Brilliantly well done.

Congratulations and thanks so much for this amazing tool. It will be an asset getting through those work days and for the tedious task of finding music.
