i am dead

<+wwchicken> once i walked into the kitchen and there was a sound
<+wwchicken> but i could only hear it when i stood on one spot in the kitchen
<+wwchicken> then i turned off the light
<+wwchicken> and it was gone
<+wwchicken> then i turned the light back on and there it was again
<+wwchicken> so i thought, its an invisible alien
<+wwchicken> but hes scared of the dark

honestly i liked the style and stuff but the song killed it

he could have atleast used the version of this (gay) song with the electric guitars

but with this version thom's voices sounds even more annoying than usual

other than that it was ok

sQueef

how did he do the effects, I was wondering if it was masking or pure FBF.

Either way yes I liked it, and at first I thought "Wow this is gay it didn't even get a good score so it probably won't win anything" but then yeah the next day came around and it had jumped from like 3.30 to whatever and got daily 5th and frontpage so yeah I was glad to see that.

But why didn't he submit it to newgrounds back when he made it and hosted it on his site...

also, the FreekC award is shit because it's only March.

Yes it was, i remember seeing it on his website years ago. I think it was that which got him the jcb song animation deal.

the style reminds me of unreconstructed's "deciduous"

theres a remade version on his DA but i think the originals better

thats the flash which inspired me to make brilliant black, which is pretty much the only half descent and ng award winning thing iv ever made

Hi I'm HLG and I can pass any flash. How do I do it? Here's a few simple tricks to guarantee that you too can pass any flash into the Newgrounds portal!!

he used a really horrible version of that song, and it was censored too which made it really awkward
anyway the metamorphosis stuff was pretty cool but when he jumped out the window it was unintentionally funny imo

f0d

the flash didnt make much sense to me

yeah i get it, the same old hackneyed idea that working in an office and being stuck in a cubicle all day is alienating and makes you want to kill yourself. so what?

some impressive effects and such and well done fbf but it really wasn't too well thought out. theres no meaning behind it. he just showed the frame by frame process of him drawing the office, which was nice looking but really insignificant. i also disliked the style

but thats just nitpicking id still give it an 8 or so
I have more of a life writing this review at 1145 pm than you guys do making these movies. . .

i think quite a few people can connect with the whole stuck in a dead end job, wanting to kill yourself idea

true, but there are so few flashes with an actual story or thought behind it on NG that it doesn't really matter anymore. Ones with nice stories and thought behind them are by far nicer, though. Figures.

that's why "jerry" was so successful. people can connect with characters who are stuck in a reality all to familiar with their own
