I may be biased, but I like it sir!

As always, the comedy doesn't miss a beat, and the writing is top notch. I particularly enjoyed the "transaction" between Taban and the Guards. ;)

I really think the animation is getting better, too.

To answer Spielmeister's question in more detail, though - I made the background for Toriyama's Pizza in RPG Maker XP (I purchased a legal copy some time ago for just this purpose - I used one of the default tilesets for it called post town inn). The goku picture was added in post production from a portrait sprites from the second Gokuden RPG on the SNES. So yeah this review was more info based then review based, but uhm yeah - it's a good episode. :)

Thankyou for the wonderfully informative post.

One of the best ones yet

The comedy in this episode is top notch, and I felt that the use of voicing was well done. granted I voiced the Chancellor myself, but everyone did a great job with the lines. Counter to the review below me, I don't see the animation as shoddy for not voicing the whole episode, though I definitely agree that is a good place for improvement in the series overall.

I was particularly amazed with the time vortex scene, getting them to not reset position in moving up and down when they changed facial expressions is an amazing flash programming feat, my hats off to you for that one, in particular.

Clovis15 responds:

The key is to give the specific instances of your movie objects names, and do this for the movie objects inside of the movie objects as well. Then you just use commands such as _root.marle1.marle2.play(); (knowing that you specifically have the inner movie object laden with stops at various key points). Once that's done, you make the outter movie object contain the actual bobbing up and down of the floating motion.

Not too shabby

I wouldn't say this is your best work ever but it IS good work - and it's good to see you doing flash again.

You've definitely improved your variety though so for this you earn a highly respectable 8 out of ten.

I look forward to seeing more awesomeness from you.

Thank you, I appreciate the positive feedback! I don't make flash as much as I used to but now I'm now concentrating more on my music. Check out my latest audio submission entitled "Don't You Know I Have Enemies". A friend of mine who owns his own record label worked on the song with me.

Holy shit

DAMN man, that was very well animated, it was hilarious and quite action packed. Easily the best episode in the series. Crono the Moon Walker is hilarious.

Clovis15 responds:

Reactions to the moonwalking across various forums so far has been far more positive than I ever dared to hope for.

Best CTU yet

Damn dude, this is easily the best CTU yet peiced together. Between the extensive animation in the flashback sequence (Oh I SO cannot wait until we leave the dungeon to see more of that), the great wit (Gee I didnt see any signs), and the awesome bonus scene, this series has outdone itself, period.

Clovis15 responds:

The credit for the dialogue in the flashback is very split. Cryo wrote it, but he only added it after I suggested the concept of the Flashback.

Nice flash Series

Good humoir throught all of them, this one in particular too. Giid everything for that matter XD

anyway the vote: Terra

Hell-Fire responds:

Terra

Ok thanks. Im glad you liked it.

All my 5 are belong to you

Excellent work, the length was just perfect (not too short, not too long), the interactivity much like from the last one is excellent; and as always it was hilarious. Keep up the good work!

Cryokenetic responds:

Thanks a lot laser! ^_^

Shortness, but great improvements

I love the interactiveness you added to unlock a scene, also the sprites and animations are SO much more cleaner on this one than the last ones, it is shorter yes, however it's better to see them more often and shorter than not as much but gargantuan. I'd like to see more small ones like this at a faster interval sort of like Secret of Mana Theatre does it - as while I always liked the humor in CT Unglued better the larger vault and faster updates keep it more often watched. Anyway best of luck with recuperating from the loss and I look forward greatly to Unglued 5

Cryokenetic responds:

Much obliged ^_^

well its been a while for me but awesome!

Man its been a while since I've been actively at newgrounds and Vince - this one kicks but - all the slight problems I had before this point have all gone to dust this one is definatly your best so far but theres one left, I meerly wanted oyou to know since I wrote such a larger review on the last one - I definatly think you've improved here dramatically.

Vinstigator responds:

Thank you :)

Good, but not your best work

There was definatly some work put into the effects on this movie, and the sprite movement was FAR better than anything you've done before that said most of my issues with the flash come from a literature standpoint, the story and events just seemed...well rushed. In the preview you showed an onslaught of enemy fighting which was well orchestrated however here you had a very quickly executed plot that just felt a bit weak and they did not fight that much - the escape as you had mentioned it was supposed to be a fight to the death through hordes of enemies but thats not what ended up happening here. You didn't do a bad job per se but you can do SO much better than this, therefore I can only give it an average score - As with all things I hope that you've garnered a learning experience from making this one. My main suggestion is that if you're going to do an action focused story that doesnt have a huge plotline thats fine but you'll need the action there to do it. Or conversley if you want just a minor action story that focuses on plot then give the plot and characters more depth as you have done in your Final Fantasy VI: The Day After series. I hope this review is helpful to you - I could lied and gush with praise because I enjoy the Day After series but that wouldn't be doing you any favors ^__^ Best of luck on your next production.

Vinstigator responds:

Yeah I understand what you are saying, but I was trying to focus more on action than plot. And now I can see that plot is what gets me those awesome scores so I shall focus more on plot from now on. Thanks for the review!

Just a crazy anime and video games nut who likes a good flash. I've helped with voice work in the Chrono Trigger Unglued series as well as helped find songs, sprites, ect - but I'm not a flash animator myself yet (May or may not be in the future)
