Excellent flash, Mr. Nurbs! I missed it before, somehow - I was probably very busy that week. I especially liked the animation of him walking from a distance. I wish I had something to show, but alas the damn thing's taking forever...

Well, I'm halfway through with my first cra.. flash, but, as I was pondering on whether I should upload it to NG upon release and as I will have no patience to wait then, I'll show it here now. First, however, I'd like to make a lengthy foreword, as usual... 0. Good flash artists, don't watch it, I'd be ashamed!.. ;-)) 1. I do know it is REAL bad. 1a. Yes, even I can draw better that that. It's just that I had no patience with so much objects for the training work. 1b. Maybe I could even animate better, but there were some effort-consuming problems along the way, so I tried to make life simplier for me and did not do the best in other places where I could. 1c. The plot is a bit longer and better suits the title. But I have to draw things yet, and I don't have much time now. So don't expect it (as if you were up to expect such... ahem...) until... say.. sometime at the end of the month. 2. What I would appreciate most: 2a. Critique which would take into consideration that I have studied Flash for about 5 days, worked on the project for about the same amount of time and am willing to spend no more than 3-5 days on finishing it when I have time. That's to say, advice something simple ;-)) 2b. An opinion whether I should put the final version of this work to NG or to recycle bin, so as not to compromise my reputation and my points until I have something better to present to a broader audience (I understand I may have compromised what reputation I got here, but I couldn't resist the urge...) 2c. In case of "NG" reply to 2b winning, I will need voice for phrases appearing in the movie. There will be but one more phrase (in other voice), and as for the currently present ones, I can't seem to find anyone among my friends with both the proper timbre and with a close enough relation between him and me for me to ask him to fool around like that. If anyone by chance will have any ideas or a will to help, let me know. I think you can guess easily from the movie what kind of voice (approximately) I was looking for. 3. Have I said this one is REAL bad and unfinished? Don't waste your time if you have none. 4. Well.. Here's the link. Hopefully at least it works OK. front.nm.ru/sniper_alpha2.html

Well, ok - some simple, quick critique;
I like how you did the grass there. It really needs some music, especially for the very end - some kind of dramatic build-up. Also, parallax scrolling would be a good idea (foreground objects moving faster across the screen than background objects), but I realize you don't have much time...
Now, just a question: what's the guy in the boat doing?

Thanks, Esn. I thought about the music for the end, too. The two things are: 1. I didn't come up with a suitable music from my playlist and I have yet to learn to find anything in the AudioPortal or some other places. This will be time-consuming, but I'll try. 2. Generally I created objects when I needed them, and, as there's no real end yet, I forgot about music for a while.
Anyways, I thought about adding more sound and probably put music in maybe more than one place (in the future (short) end and in the present end, for example). Apart from having no music yet, I found that it sometimes increases my filesize for no reason. For example, yesterday I put (and removed) another short sample of bird chirping, and the file turned to 2,5 MB from 1. And the sample itself was some 300 kB. Such things I do not understand. Got any ideas?
Parallax scrolling will take redrawing the whole scene, yeah, for this one that would be too much. Thanks, however, I learned the idea and the word ;-))
The guy in the boat... He's just rowing. Actually, I thought about letters that are written on board being seen, but... The writing is "1 obolus a travel" (in Latin letters) and "Charon" (in Greek letters). Added for general creepiness and randomness (and, if you'd like it, to draw attention to proximity of the world of death ;-)) And maybe to the fact that for each sniper the other one is already across the river - in that world). But maybe I'll try to make "Xapwn" visible.
The grass is also the only piece of drawing that I liked myself, Looks unexpectedly natural. Except for the episode with Charon, where in the background it is obviously higher than Charon... The looks of the grass suppose that it should be 0,8 - 1,2 meters high at maximum.. But who cares? Though I'll still think about it.
Thanks again.
