Love it!

Dirty and hilarious, in the tradition of many great Halloween entertainments. Good job using the characters; great job with an over-the-top script, right in the same vein. Or should I say, main vein. Hope you win the contest!

Cream of the crop

This has a professional and classic look and feel, that makes it a real cartoon -- not just a tossed-off Flash project, like so much stuff you see. Writing, voices, design --it's just good stuff. This should get broader recognition, and hopefully lead to Snappy episode 3! Nice job.

Some decent originality, both in look and content

I don't know if you borrowed from somewhere else (could be Homestar R., I'm not sure I've seen it elsewhere yet) the idea to only show the ends of appendages -- hands, head, feet -- and skip giving characters arms and legs altogether, but my hat's off to you. It works fine stylistically, and had to save you LOTS of time, in animating.

Other than that, I like the drawing style. And the writing is decent satire on what you usually see in Zelda-type games.

The only easily identifiable drawback might be that some of the stuff seems slowed way down for no real good reason -- seems like it was just to make the 'toon run longer, as opposed to making it better somehow.

Anyway, not bad at all.

Cosmodious responds:

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. At some parts I was trying to as you say the 'toon run longer' but at some of the parts where it slows down I was trying to get it to seem more dramatic. Apparently it didn't work but thanks for your review.

Cool bits of design and ideas

Nice original gaming twist, with the indestructable tank. Some cool little bits of design, with the tank and especially with the environment. Not particularly challenging, which is actually the least important part of a Flash game, and kind of refreshing. Fun enough I levelled up the whole way, although I didn't feel compelled to chase the leader boards. Good work!

Hesitantly say it, but could really use someblood

The game has a lot going for it; clearly a lot of work went into it, and it's well done for the most part. I got bored quickly though, because everything you shoot just disappears without any physical effects. I'm not a guy who adores and needs gore in any movie or game, and I like that this is an attempt towards a more family-friendly parody on the R.E. series. But I disappoint even myself to say, something needs to happen in reaction to your shots. Even if it's just that the monster flies across the screen in recoil, or something. Wouldn't have to be guts flying out, but it needs to be something.

Just a dupe?

Was this just copied over from another site where it was already hosted? Maybe I'm way off, or maybe that's okay under the NG philosophy. But I get that feeling. And the "game" title is misleading to the point I'd think it'd have to anger some people.

Calaveras County uses Flash, often combined with music, to create satire that no one else is doing.
