Fight for a Kingdom

Fight for a Kingdom (may pick up on again...)

Tell me what you think? I've set this aside, and I may pick this up again, but that's when the tweening wants to work and my flash doesn't want to be a---- well you get it...

Frame Rate was really fast (for a test): 60

Fairly nice video, I would dare to say. You certainly were rather ambitious with some of the effects, considering how short it was.

My criticisms are these:

1) No music; Makes for a boring narrative

2) Some of the text was chopped off during the interludes

3) At the beginning, when the trees were going by, you attempted a nifty parallax effect. However, you made a small goof. When the smaller tree overtook the larger one as the screen panned right, it went behind the large tree. Obviously, this can't happen since parallax changes because of distance from an object (greater distance = less parallax movement). Ergo, the tree, moving more because of parallax than the large tree, should have gone in front of the large tree as it passed it, because it was significantly closer.

I was just starting, so I would do the music later when I found one good song.

I know. Sometimes me + flash don't go together.... :embrsd:

I'll fix that. I was experimenting.

This was more like an experiment flash.

I'm just saying you've got a long way to go. Don't mistake my meaning, you've put together a piece with quite a bit of potential, it just needs more polishing.

Keep at it. You will get there.

I liked it, but posting short movies like this people sometimes won't care if it is a prelude.
Anyways what was mario doing at the end?

Mario is getting ready to fight some Koopas and Goombas.

OOOHH! That makes it look cool. Expect my vote on newgrounds and this is going to my protection point list. Hope you finish it soon!
