I enjoy using Flash creatively to make cool looking games and applications. I'm still learning a lot of actionscript, so prefer to stick to simple formats rather than all out flashy action games.

not bad, but your graphics need improvement. Also the pacing is a little slow (i guess this is to fit it with the song) but it gets kind of boring staring at a still image for 20 secs waiting for something to happen. I can see what you are aiming for with this, with a little more effort on the graphics side i can see you achieving this. Good luck, i am sure the next part will be better.

wierd to see it back up again, dont know where it went. I liked it, kind of. Some parts felt more worked on than others. I didnt understand it though, it was all a little strange (not in a good way, I usually like strange).
And by pie do you mean pi (ð)?

I liked it, but the end seemed a little like you couldnt be bothered to finish it properly. The movie just stops, no "The End", no "replay", it doesnt even go back to the start. Also could have done with some bg music to make it seem a little more lively. Also needs a preloader with start button, its annoying when movies just start by themselves.
Good work for a 2nd submission.

It was really cute and also pretty fun. It wasn't too hard to beat, but it was a nice distraction for 5 minutes. I like the idea too, reminds me of something weisi (mausland.de) would make. But more french!
Nice graphics, good choice of music. Only niggle is that the gameplay could be tweaked slightly to either increase difficulty or to add more options. Also, once you actually bounce high enough to reach the moon, the game appears to freeze as nothing is displayed for a good 20 secs before you land on the moon. Maybe this could be fixed.
Nice job!! 4/5

wow, that was amazing! You are a really talanted artist and it really shows. I recognise the influences in this movie style, reminds me quite a lot of animes such as FLCL. The voice acting was spot on, it suited the characters and added to the movie.
I cannot fault this movie at all, I think it is a great start to what will most likely be one of the best series on NG this year. Great job! If I had to pick on anything for improvement, perhaps make the subtitles less obtrusive. They are quite big and distract a little from the movie. The sound is so clear anyway that they are hardly necessary (although it is always nice to have suibtitles incase your speakers are crappy).
You get my 5!

well made, nice graphics, good concept. The learning curve is a little steep though, level 3 was very hard. I completed it, even though i cheated.
If you click the mouse to start drawing, then press P whilst still holding the button, the game pauses but you can still draw and join ships. Its a useful little cheat to finnish of a level before the time runs out!

Wow, I really like this a lot. It is the sort of thing I have been trying to do, although a lot longer and more complex. I really liked the style of the movie, it is very clear that a lot of effort went into this.
Some constuctive comments that come to mind are that some of the graphics looked a little bit ropey, and the sound quality for the speech wasnt that great. Most of the graphics were lovely, but it was obvious more care had been taken with some parts than others. As for the sound, maybe you could get someone to help with the voice acting and use a better microphone.
Great movie though!

If you could hear the notes you are pressing it would make it more interesting. Also the visuals are a bit bland, all a rather grim shade of grey. Add some colour and contrast.
Not bad, but not great either.

I will submit a revised version that plays the note when it comes up, but until then, this is what is available. As for the colour, thats the way I made it, I could care less for frilly pinks and that crap.

"well u get a 10 for interactivity"
but i mean honestly, a calculator!?! And you made it for fun???
Sorry, but I dont find calculators very fun to play with, and if i wanted one i would use a real one, not some naff flash calculator. I know this took a lot of effort, but I dont think many people come on this site to work out sums. Sorry.
Author's Response:
I made is so I could learn actionscripting easier because it was my first actionscript prohect. I just wanted a better calculator than the standard windows POS

took me a couple of attempts but in the end I got the hang of it. I think it has a pretty steep learning curve, maybe the first level should be just a little easier.
I am really impressed with the game. You did a good job with the coding (presuming you coded this yourself, and didnt just rip off some old lunar lander clone).
THe graphics need some work though. If you ever wanted someone to help you with the games graphics, I would be willing to lend a hand :)
