The table.

IDK if these votes are worth more over on Twitter, Reddit or whatever other platforms you use, since there’s generally less active viewers on Newgrounds.

[SWAGASS BANGER BANNER]

I like this. I like this a little bit more.
Love the lighting + colours. Except it's autumn right now (or spring if you're in the south).

[Street Fighter 6 GBC version]

Fun fact: The Game Boy Color can normally only display 56 colours at once (8 palettes of 4 for tiles and 8 palettes of 3 for sprites), out of a possible 32,768.

Some GBC games had special code in them that changed those palettes mid-frame, theoretically increasing its limits to ~4,000.
Examples: Alone in the Dark, Cannon Fodder (FMV section), the unrealeased Tyrannosaurus Tex (outside of gameplay), as explained here:

Even without this hack, you still did a very fine job adhering to actual graphical limitations. Maybe not so much with some sprites, such as the dumbbells in the last panel, or Chun Li's sprite in the fourth panel (though this could be multiple sprites layered on top of each other).

[Rearmed: MegaSketcher]

Am I the only one here who understands this? Those 4 stamp things always get lost.

[Smokin' & Sleepin']

Story: Very simple. Nothing to write home about

Art: Massive dealbreaker. Looks like an old case of ‘objectshowitis’. Each character is a geometric shape with crude face and stick limbs, and quick lines for eyes. Drawing from life can definitely help, even if you still aim to keep things cartoony.

Final verdict: You have a very powerful animation tool on your hands, Adobe Flash. People used to make TV shows with this, before Toon Boom anyway. There’s practically a massive potential to be had with this software. Can’t wait what you’ll end up with in 3 years.

[Power Awake Artwork]

Definitely fits the song.

I feel your lighting/colours have improved slightly more. I suggest experimenting more with it in future works.

KittyhawkMontrose responds:

Thanks! I'm glad you think it fits too, and I'm glad you like my progress so far! I've been pushing the coloring, and I like where it's going. I hope you like what I've got coming up too. :D

[Staring at you]

Great work. In 2 years you’ve made a lot of progress, but do you notice the lighting look… off? Or is it just me?

In other words, it appears you’re using clean, thick cartoony outlines mixed with dark, blurry and over-contrasting rim lighting. Personally I don’t think they work very well together.

[kaeloo (and mr cat)]

I could've sworn there was also a duck in this show.

chipollo responds:

there is! i’ll probably draw him sometime soon :o]

[(GIF) Walking]

Walking's great, but the checkered floor becomes very jerky on the top and especially when it leaves the horizon.

[Major Cloog/Doobus Goobus Crossover Remastered]

Doobus is at 960K Holy unholiness, that’s more than Weebl’s Stuff (927K).

Anyway, they all look pretty square. Rounded, but square
