[Space Junkies Episode 1]

You can do better.

icyentertainment responds:

are you sure?

[Merry Christmas Card]

Why did they call you a cheater? Aside from making us click the nose :P This is great! Incredibly easy to tell that the more you stick with animating the better you'll get. This is really inspiring, from one fledgling animator. Your classmates are jerks for thinking you cheated, though.

Merry Chrisyear!

SalihMan responds:

I'm thankfull for the things you said! ^o^
It gives me the strength to continue! :3
And I'm glad that you liked it! ^~^
And Merry Christmas! :)

["Deadstar" Episode IV]

Fantastic. The voice acting was deadpan (and still incredibly enticing), yes; the animating was awkward and clunky, true; and the style suggests ambitions that the execution didn't quite reach.

However, none of this should mean that the episode isn't superb. The tone of it reminds me of a cheap knock-off of Texnohlyze (a good thing), the script is inviting and fresh, and the fact that it appears "detached" and inhuman enhances the dramatic aspect of the entire thing.

The biggest pull for me, though, were the graphics: ASTOUNDING graphics! Nothing Daily Feature worthy, of course (due to the animating/movement), but the effort and passion that went into the art is evident, and worth several pints of beer (or your favourite vice). Creating meaningful art, in any medium, takes time, heart, and preservation. The amount of genuine HEART in this, in the characters, is commendable.

Thanks man, yeah I'm actually kind of embarrassed by the lip-sync for Harrison's character in this version. I made some improvements to this episode which I hope to release soon. I also felt that the ending music watered down the ending a little bit. But thank you, I appreciate it.

[Toxic Kimi and the show]

Ooohh this would be amazing animated!

temari responds:

Do yu know any decent program for making animations?

[Interactive DemonJuice]

Why not use it in the actual cartoon so people have a chance to do something while your cartoon loads? The graphics are done well, I really enjoy the cartoony type innocence to it, but it's just... there. Like cat ninja vomit on a Korean rug.

HereWiiGoAgain responds:

Um thank you... I think???

[Kick The Can]

Hits far too close to home, however hilarious.

orozcomary71 responds:

Awesome! I was trying to go for that, hopefully the next short will have an even bigger impact.

[Clyde Frog]

I'm still trying to figure out my way around here since I'm new, but this seems like it'd be better for your Newgrounds Dump than the portal. Maybe including it with shorts featuring soundclips from other shows would help it, instead of just 'being there.'

Ardhamon responds:

I guess but I've seen plenty of people post stuff like this here. But I'm only posting this to get feed back on how I can improve and such. But thanks anyway.
