...wow, Battosai said it all, didn't he? :P
Good music and sound effects, graphics could have been a bit more detailed, especially when the invaders land in Vekta. Nice use of filters. I was hoping for more after the ships landed as well.
Work on developing the symbols in your flash, the 5 ships taking off simultaneously looked a little bit lazy. You could have a symbol of the ships being stationary, and another showing the animation. That means you could have the ships take off at different times. The soldiers in the beginning could have all benefited from that walking animation you had after the hooded figure appears.
We'll see what you do with the sequel, if you go on to make it. Good luck. :)

Thanks for the long review, I can only wonder who tagged this review as 'useless'.

I'll admit that I've never played the game before, but found it very entertaining nonetheless.
Funny expressions and voices, coupled with some great animation, you made it accessible to everyone, which was fantastic.
The camp "Boom! <3" bit and the transexual robot (?) were definite lol moments for me, and it was good of you to poke fun at Kojima's "weird for the sake of weird" aspect in his games.
Love how it turned out, congratulations, and I hope to see this on the front page and with a Daily 1st sometime tomorrow! ;)
Cheers!

Like I told Murad136, I accomplished my goals in finishing this thing and it receiving a higher score than my crappy Flash Test. As far as I'm concerned that, coupled with these great reviews I'm getting, is making me a happy dude.
Glad you enjoyed it, man! Thanks!

I keep on having to remind myself to review your latest movies and everyday I choose not to do so, I rip off a fingernail.
So lets see, starts off with a nice bit of FBF, which reminded me a good bit about your submission in the Doodle Collab. The music suits it and it's a nifty wee bit.
At first I thought it would have been entirely experimental, but I was both surprised and amused to see you do your cartoon thing which incorporates real life problems with funny voices and bizarre humour. :P
Then there was some Durr Darr Derrs (POOL PARTY?) and shit, and then the giant octopus thing with the kick ass music (what's the name of the song?).
So yeah, I'm glad I stopped by on this and gave it a look. And because I've practically told everyone what happens, they don't have to watch it now D:
lol, kidding on and good work. I'd better check your other new things out before I turn to my toenails. :(

As a Flash artist I know too well the potential threat of Flash explodation.
Decent music, neat, smooth animation, I expect good things from this flash. A lot of people can relate to your mishappening, and they're all going to find it as funny as I did.
Awesome job man. :D

Ya, I know I'm not so good with the sound effects and music. When I finish the animation all I can think of is submitting it, and I usually rush the sound.

Good choice of music, and decent and funny animation. You done a good job at syncing the animation to the song.
It went a bit weird during the "fear in my enemies eyes" bit. It just showed that circle (the eye) and I almost thought it was the end of the movie!
I really enjoyed watching your movie, and gave you 4/5 and 7/10 for your efforts.
Great job mate. :D

Good choice of sound effects, nice animation and backgrounds/character models, and the whole trailer has me intrigued. If you can keep this up when making the first episode then you'll have a good final product when the flash is done.
Best of luck to you, and good job. :)
Author's Response:
Im glad your intrested :)
Hopefully the first episode should be alot better!
Thanks.

You can tell that a lot of effort was put into this flash.
At first you feel the title is ironic to the flash: incredibly drab colours, signs related to depression (isolation, self harming, suicide). As the flash continues, we see a couple holding hands, and we see a black figure that overcomes the contemplation of committing suicide and begins to sprout colour. And then there's a super happy ending! Yay! ^_^
The object of the flash is to highlight that there is a metaphorical light at the end of the tunnel. No matter how shit things seem, there is always an opportunity to move on, and enjoy life to it's maximum, and it should not be cut short through self will.
I thoroughly enjoyed this flash Mech. Well done. :D
Author's Response:
Glad you liked it. I hope people who watch this who suffer with depression and think there is no hope out there realise that there is after watching this as there is! Anyways, thanks for the review. :)

I like the choice of music, and you had some funny ideas in there. But you were a little lacking in the animation.
Perhaps you could improve by narrating it, and doing a Public Health announcement about it, if you know what I mean. Some more animation would be a plus too.
3/5, 6/10.
Good luck. :D

Pretty cool flash, good choice of music, and the ending was pretty funny. I would have hoped to have seen Casualty at the Lady Liberty statue, like the icon suggests.
I had no idea it was Casualty's birthday today. Happy birthday to you if you're reading mate. :D
Nice job, I like how you have started putting more effort into your flashes. There is a difference, and they are more enjoyable to watch.
3/5, 6/10.

If you find these more enjoyable to watch, then sometime in the future, my flashes should be even more enjoyable. :) Thanks!

It ran so smoothly and quickly, that I had to watch it a few times to catch every detail of it.
An awesome short this, great job!
