I thought this game was well executed. Turning the simple base defender game into a one-person free-for-all was a clever twist, and the assortment of power ups and additions to the game made it all the better. Great job on this one!

This is one of those movies that has a great feel to it. The visual components are amazing... I mean, the graphics are not superb compared to other popular flash titles, but it works so well with the animation that it only helps the animation.
I thought you did a great job on this, the whole animation was done well. I hope you continue your efforts as a flash artist and continue to submit to Newgrounds. Thanks for the awesome submission. Very different from many I have seen.

Slightly experimental but well put together, I really liked this claymation/video montage. Everything about it was great, including the claymation, which was above par in many respects. The timing and visuals were perfect, execution was great! Awesome job, well done!

Thanks for making a Ball Revamped game! This is awesome, and your use of the advanced collision detection is great :P! I hope you continue your programming efforts and keep making games! Great first submission into the portal!

When I played the version of this game, the gameplay did not make sense and the graphics were terrible. But since you have cleaned up the game a bit, and actually gave the instructions, it was a much better job, and deserves a much better score. Great job!
Only thing to think about fixing is the inability to make the circle move faster on the edges of the map. You may want to make a larger stage and then just confine the play area to a smaller area. That way, people can move the circle faster along the edges, instead of being stuck with a slower ball along the sides.
Otherwise, good job, hope you keep producing work.

God, this animation was hilarious. You have such a great sense of humor, everything was amazingly well done. The Golden Book interpretation of Zogg was genius... it definitely is one of my favorite from this week. You have a great imagination, turning something very simple into something hilarious and amusing. Congrats, very well done.

"The Best thing to Hit Newgrounds, Ever"
The juxtaposition of so many brilliant animations put together is truly the success of this animation. The amazing color, design, and quality used from the very second the animation opened definitely qualified this for the best animation, possibly, ever made.
Take the toast scene. This is by far a marvel in the animation industry alone. The ambient Ghostbuster music (which is indeed, a masterpiece in itself), complementhe the already metaphoric storyline of the toast wanting to be toasted. The poetic placement of text on the screen also contributes to the amazing array of textures and colors on the screen, which is rarely seen in flash animation.
The artwork is some of the best I have seen in ages. Never have I seen the implementation of rainbow gradients to be used with such vigor and stealth. Both in the preloader and on the intro screen, as well as throughout the art piece, rainbows made their small appearances in doses that would hint the audience of their brilliance, but never overwhelm them.
The craftsmanship and beauty of this animation, by far, is the best animation I have ever seen on Newgrounds. I hope you will take the time to step back and admire your own work, because without a doubt, this is going to make it to the top-50 list. The actionscript presented in this piece has set the bar for any animator or game designer who ever wants to go professional with their work. Congratulations, you have made the ultimate flash video.
An admiring fan,

Once again, brilliantly executed and beautifully done flash. Although it is different from most of the trends that appear on Newgrounds, it makes it stand out as its own original piece. The music, graphics, amazing backgrounds and conceptial brilliance is perfect. I love the characters and the interesting ideas the author comes up with replacing the brain with the heart. Very well done.
I have to say, even though it can be someone sick and twisted, it is still amazing flash and is great all around. Congrats, I hope this one goes far.

By far one of the best animated films this week. The amazing composition and style of your film are phenomenal, and the sound and basic technique you used are far better than a lot I see going through the portal. Your use of A:AE are great, and the combination of artwork and quality makes it one of the best. The characters are great... simple yet effective. Congratulations on this one, it is amazing.

This is one of the most original and clever ideas I have seen all week. Hilarious would be an understatement. Mixing urban legend with completely awesome story and animation is perfect, and the center of the story is brilliant. Great job!
