"Lulls."

submission: The Real Luigi's Mansion

date: March 18, 2009

That was a hilarious compilation of sprites and fan sprites and a 2-liter of Sprite.

Music selection was a bit off though. Come on, Luigi's super Saiyan transformation should have been Linkin Park's "Break."

Whatev, lol and stuff.

Score: 8

"Ya. Sure."

submission: Cpt.Falcon Hyes

date: March 18, 2009

The only thing missing was a poorly Photoshopped blackface over Squirtle and some permutation of the "SHOOP DA WOOP" line.

Love how you included the infamous C-Falc's annoyingly lethal knee move, and the super-serious close-ups were awesome. But did we really need to see dismemberment and heads exploding? Didn't seem to fit the whole Nintendo ethos. (Maybe I am a bit of a prude.)

I think Snake and Falcon have equal levels of sheer chest-beating manliness, which means an epic DBZ-style battle royale is sure to ensue, not just Snake apparently swallowing and accidentally detonating several kilos of his own C4.

But otherwise, you draw circles around 89% of Newgroundsians, you should be proud. So good stuff, man. Battletoads ftw.

Score: 9

"Arguably..."

submission: Saturday Morning Watchmen

date: March 18, 2009

...more entertaining than the movie. (Complex commentary on society and the human condition my ass.)

I'd so travel back to the alternate 80's when this cartoon was made and make bootleg VHS tapes of all the episodes.

Thanks also for making comics' ultimate badass look and sound like Buster Bunny.

Score: 8

"Trippy"

submission: Last Meower

date: March 18, 2009

So whimsical and yet so dark....

Nine is a lot of suicides, which is why the suicide rate among cats is so low.

Score: 7

"Literature, hooray!"

submission: Dante's Inferno w/ Mario

date: March 18, 2009

Geez, you were never forced to read Dante's Inferno, huh? Lucky you.

The correct answer to Toad Virgil's "pop quiz" would have been Judas Iscariot, uh, Brutus, and umm... some other guy who get's to be Satan's chew toy for all eternity.

Oh, and Virgil can't set foot in heaven; he's Level 1 hell, which isn't too bad.

Well, whatev, continuity be damned in the name of funny Nintendo-themed Flashes.

Now let's see some more classic literature/Nintendo action! Macchiavelli's "The Prince" or Lewis Carrol's "Through the Looking Glass," anyone? They're begging for the Mario treatment.

Score: 9

"The NG equivalent of Audiosurf...?"

submission: RhythmWorld

date: February 4, 2009

Applause for the DJ disks. Finally, a unique and inventive rhythm game.

Not so much for generic frets, especially when everyone charts the songs assuming I can play Guitar Hero on expert in my sleep. ( I can't. :| )

EBA-style dots are just impossible outside of a touch-screen environment, but tablet users, tablet PC users, and the iMac Touch should love it.

Otherwise, this game is about the closest thing to Audiosurf you can get for free. (Not gameplay-wise, of course, but in terms of music variety.) Tons of NGAP songs and the user-generated community will keep folks coming back for more.

Score: 5

"O_O"

submission: TLoDZ Episode 2

date: August 22, 2008

Yay for 8-bit Zelda and Flashes based upon it.

Though, you get no points for taste.

8-bit pixel gore? Sheesh. N.A.R.C maybe, but not our beloved LoZ.

And Dark Link's unspoken (or untyped) line is "lol i bawm u noob." Not really a lot of comedic punch.

Score: 10

"THANK YOU!"

submission: The Tutorial Collab '08

date: April 15, 2008

For a college kid struggling with ActionScript, this is a Godsend. I'm trying to do some different things with sounds that weren't in the Wikibooks or anywhere else.

Thanks to all of you!!

Faving it, bookmarking it, fiving it. Forever. XD

Score: 9

"Blueberry cobbler"

submission: Sonic Shorts: Volume 1

date: February 29, 2008

Great thing about collabs, you get a lot of different stuff in one place.

Most of the shorts were really well done. Props to the collaborators! Uh.. whoever they may be...
