Beautiful

Reminded me of ET and the Reeses Pieces. It was done very well with great timing to connect with the emotions. Voice would've ruined it. Great Job!

lengthen it

Yah. Go ahead and make an episode. Would be interested in watching it.

standing ovation

The Greatest American Hero - that was clever -- I was born in '74.

You're cartoons are of the highest standard. Keep up the good work.

I liked how Marx takes off the mask to reveal himself looking like the mask.

totally had fun

An addicting game. Reminded me of Atari games from 80's. I scored 12.

good work

Had fun playing it for a short while. Look for my PM.

lots of holes

I created the button and entered the first set of script. Then I right clicked on the button-layer frame to enter the stop(); command. Now your screen shows a blank screen with the stop command by itself, but when I enter in the command I did it after the "release" command. You also don't explain if I have to place the "stop" command for every layer either. For a beginner, I found it confusing that I right clicked on all layers for the same frame and found the "release" command there. I guess that's right?

Anyways, I ran the game, which has frames after the button frame, and the animation didn't stop. It just went frame after frame right through the button frame and continued on.

Another tutorial said the button has to be a movie clip first, then a button... you didn't mention this. So which is it?

A course of action becomes clear

Overall I think the song is good, but needs a better mix.

The scream at the beginning lacks intensity because of how it mixes in with the song. Maybe increase its volume as the scream opens up. It's a really good scream.

The hi hat and cymbal hits sound too quiet, while the kick drum sounds a bit shallow/flat. It also sounds that you have the cymbals panned a bit too hard left. It's hard to tell with my very old boom box, but look into that.

The death vocals are good quality. The clean vocals lack in strength. That's partially how they're mixed (softness, dryness, maybe lack of some dynamic effects) and how they fall off pitch a bit. I know your dead set on not using pitch shifters, but it's okay to use them to correct small errs. It has nothing to do with current vocalists comapred to those of the past before pitch shifters were available; even the greatest of singers fall off pitch sometimes.

The bass guitar gets too loud at times, like in the end, and at the end it seems that something is falling off time a wee bit.

The guitar solo lacks sustain it needs (or something during the hammer on/pull off parts mostly), and I'm not sure the effect (sounds like an electric violin?) on it blends in with the song well.

Again, overall a good job. The song has a good flow that carries the listener through. I think if the mixing was upped a bit, then this song would kick a little more ass.

So an 8, to leave room open for corrections.

That's effin insane!

hard on

Rock! Is that real drums. What are you playing? I'm giving a 9 to leave room for any updates of the song.
