"f youshnitzel"

:(
Was it necessary to use my name? :`(

The beginning was a bit slow, the rest was pretty nice :D
Though the frames went by too fast in my opinion, didn't have time to read everything and see everything.

PowerRangerYELLOW responds:

Lmao i never used your name at all. It's an action script trick that gets everyones names right when there logged into there newgrounds account.

Don't worry it's a harmless acton script trick to fool you into thinking i made this for you and you only.

Glad you enjoyed it.

[Boys VS Girls]

Funny, but needs improvement.

I thought the story was funny, some of the animations were well done though not all. The cutting and timing of scenes was great, good job on that part.

One of the biggest flaws is sound-wise. Some of the sounds (Like with the wall-fortification) were very low quality and too "sound box". The music was great, and the one at the beginning fit the animation, but the rest of the movie was too quiet. Even a very silent background music can help and so can other sounds (edited to sound better).

Graphically, try to improve the drawings. Maybe use the line tool or add colors. Register hair with he head so you won't have to redraw it everytime.

ClipEvents?

Are you seriously using ClipEvents? And teaching others to use them too?
ClipEvents are worthless except for some certain problems (like when applying actions to multiple MCs and a loop function will slow the file too much).

If anything to improve besides the approach of teaching - that'll be the presentation.
I don't many who want to learn from something that looks very amateur. Even if the tutorial can't be find elsewhere, presentation is crucial. This includes interface, graphics, structure, environment and language.

Drag and Drop just isn't it.

The idea was ok, so were the graphics. Some people actually like drag and drop games like dressing games.

But the execution wasn't good. I mean, you can place stuff on the wall? and in the middle of the grid?
You should have done some extra research about grids or tiles and used them for the game, just like in Habbo.

After you've done that, you need something to make the game interesting. It can be music. It can be extra features like saving a picture of the room. It can even be an option to submit that picture to a database to share it with other players.

It's just clearly not it.

Baylixx responds:

Thanks for you response!

But as you can tell my Flash is terrible XP. Thanks for you tips. I have been looking on how to grid the tiles and such but i can't seem to find anything. I'll keep trying!

I know 'dress up' games aren't good. but their probably the easiest games you can make.
so thats what i started with.

>.> just to clear it up ! DON'T play Habbo. I just though to use the room creating aspect for a flash game. lol

Perfect

Would you mind if I use this loop as a background music for a game I'm making? :D
Full credit for the music will be displayed of course.
