It occur to you to change to a private name if IMs really bug you that much? Nice game and all, but Christ, moan, moan.
Oh, and if you're going to link out through the windows, you could at least do it in a different window, or save the score if you want the game to end there.
Oh, and guy who asked about the code. It's the old NES code for Konami games. Gave you 30 lives in Contra.

My GOD. Either my computer is worse than I thought (very possible), or this game hasn't really been optimized at all. The opening menu was like a series of postcards, and the battles were even worse. What type of computers did you make this for?
I can tell it's good though. Nice work. Next time, though, think of the poor bastards with shoddy computers. Thanks.

It was fun game, but 1. I never got any powerups, and 2. It's the same pattern over and over again. Maybe more weapons, more types of deaths...

Hey, a few notes:
Plurals (ninjas) and possessives (his) aren't followed with 's just because they end with "s". Look:
I am = I'm
You are =You're
He is =He's (she's, it's)
But not possessive (The dog and its bone)
We are = We're
You (pl) are = You're
They are = They're
Words can be followed with the apostrophe as long as the "to be" pronouns follow.
The ninja is running= The ninja's running
Good job on the movie, though :)

The idea of someone sending an army out to die because "people stand behind an army" is pretty dumb. If you think about it, people mistrust armies. They prefer to have a hero to watch on the news. Also, no experienced commander of an army would make the decision those two did. Bad army management. Up to you.
Author's Response:
Well, the thing about it is that people trust Victory Army, becuse they supposedly brought them peace and ended war several times, because sending out all of their troops was just to make the public feel secure. VA secretly sends out very few elites. As for the whole hero bit, if they sent out one man, well, there would be no need for the army if he won. And what if he lost too? They need the funding from other counrties for VA, so they can focus on "other projects". And they wouldn't get it if one man did everything. Hope this makes sense.

"Pretty much clueless through the whole movie"
I know what you said about the sound, but I couldn't understand ANY of the lyrics, except for the occasional "sign". The only part I could hear was you talking at the end, and that was what was interesting. I dunno. Either make your movies shorter with better sound, or edit the movie so that you have enough room for better quality sound.
Author's Response:
Yeah. The sound sucked. But at 16bits, the file was too big to load on NG.
I took a gamble, it didn't work. Dang!
Thanks for the review!

Not much of his original personality there, though. The real Kefka would have bitten out their eyes and poisoned the sockets. Anyway...
This movie is great during the action scenes; you make good use of the sprites, and the animation is fluid. I gotta say, though, the writing wasn't all that good. First off, the funny parts weren't very funny, and not very interesting. Secondly, you didn't say who sent them on the search of the mythical beast. Lastly, there was no real conflict. Everyone got along fine, except for Sabin and Gau, and Gau just took it. If I were you, I'd have a lot more arguing between Crono and Sabin. If I were Sabin, I'd wonder why Crono always got to call the shots...
Also, think about adding a few more quirks to each character's personality, especially Sabin and Crono. Some weird quirks. Just to establish some on-going jokes for your long-time viewers...
Well, damn good job for two megs. Keep it up!
Author's Response:
You go to fast....Kefka had to cover himself cuz he almost got busted. In the next upcoming episodes Kefka will get evil.
And a person called Link sends the MErcs out to kill Carragor, chrono says this at start of the movie.
Chrono is the leader of the Mercs, that easy. They have an assignment, Chrono accepts it and leads the Mercs.

You're really good at dialogue AND voice acting. You could be making money on this stuff. Have you given any thought to animated series, or anything? Find an artist if none of you like to draw. Go to any bookstore, and look for the "Writer's Market", current edition, for a list of agents to send scripts to. I'd be happy if you were all rich :)
Author's Response:
i would be happy too :)

But it didn't make much sense as a story. Unless
"Zlobin" has a meaning we ignorant English-speakers are unaware of, the finishing line to this movie doesn't really catch the watcher like it should. The rest of the dialogue didn't really serve to illuminate what was happening on screen, either. Way above standard work, nonetheless.
