Reviews for CT: Fall of Guardia Part1

[Rovalles]

once again

Well Mr. Chavez. I figured you'd be waiting for this one so I'm gonna be blunt and fair. You done did it again. You seem to be utilizing the sprites you've worked with well. The dialouge boxes seem well set as well but the one problem you have is that they are at times too fast to read, but then again given file size regulations if thats a problem you are very so forgiven. The music is well organized, specifically at the end. Real great work and I can't wait till your next CT : The pendant Episode as well as the FF 6: The Day After Epilouge.

A start of a series...

Wow, how could I miss this one! Even a Daily Feature, nice. I Did a Chrono Trigger Search and stumbled upon this movie. Big fan of CT, btw.

Now to the review:
Graphics 5 – Could have been MUCH better. Mostly the Fireball Magus Cast annoyed me.

Style 5 – I guess it’s kinda of an Original Idea. I would have to say that I should wait for the next episodes before giving the “style” any criticism.

Sound 9 – Great, I love the CT music.

Violence 6 - Magus SHOULD have fought MUCH better! Frog is my favourite character but not even he could’ve defeat Magus that easy. I hope he comes back or something (from the dead?) in the next episodes. The Fighting Scenes should be improved a lot for the forthcoming Episodes.

Interactivity 3 – Meh, it’s a movie. Though the Menu was kinda clickable n’ stuff.

Humour 0 – I see that this movie is more of a dramatically and story based movie than just average Humour lines (Whatever that just meant).

Overall 6/10 it’s a start of a series, and Good Luck with it.

I’ve never seen any of your other movies, except Vince Trigger and a FF movie. Both were great, specially Vince Trigger, funny as hell.

Vinstigator responds:

Thanks for the review. Not only did it get Daily Feature, but it was also on the front page for 3 days :)

And I'm glad you liked Vince Trigger. That's one of my favorite movies I've made thus far. Also I saw your post in that "Shin2k27 is satan" thread and you had no idea who Shin was. Well guess what? He was the guy I dissed in Vince Trigger lol. Man that guy is such a n00b. He's also now the laughing stock over on the BBS :P

Well thanks again for the review. Stay tuned for part 2!

Actually I lied...

...in my last review from one of your movies. Frog is my favorite character! He kicked a$$ in this movie good luck with more FF and Chrono Trigger movies!

Vinstigator responds:

Frog isn't my favorite but I gotta admit, he does kick ass.

I am and will always be a big fan of yours

Man, very cool that you love Chrono Trigger just like me, I've been playing it these days, you know, Black Omen, defeat in the future than past, hard work Y'know...
Hey, heard of your front page, I didn't saw it, I was chilling out of this computer, so I missed it.
And man, you said of the part 15 of TDA (The Day After) and it didn't came yet, well, seems like it will be the best movie ever in NG and as you said in one of your esponses for me "The soundtrack will fuckin' rock" now come on, tell me some of the sounds I'll hear there then, hehe...

Now, for the movie
Animation: hmm, pretty cool, but you would need to make faster moves.
Graphics: They're sprites, To copy it takes some time, but to make it it's harder.
Creativity: Heh, I liked how you used various places as a single one, The prision, the tent at the Millenial Fair and the Castle ruins (? forgot the name)
Sound: The sounds gotta be a bit louder, but it's still good as it is
Style: Crono rules!
Interactivity: You obtained some points there with all that bonus feature, scene selector and the mighty PLAY BUTTON
Overall: If you keep it like this you won't leave the overalls 6, 7, 8 or 9

Thanks for reading, leave your always welcome reply

Vinstigator responds:

Most of the songs in part 15 have never been used in a flash movie. A lot of them are remixes that sound way better than the originals. And one of the songs is from FF: Crystal Chronicles (a game that has an awesome soundtrack). I've been working on part 15 a lot lately so you'll see it soon enough. It's just that I'm waiting for my co author to finish his scene.

And yes I did get front page. Here's a screenshot...

Heh, I'll never forget that day. Hopefully part 15 will make front page as well :)

Anyway, thanks for the review. I'm glad to have fans like yourself.

Nice work.

Interesting take on the Chrono Trigger universe. And you definately put alot of work into it.

Vinstigator responds:

That I did :)
