"Oh my, I love that scene of family guy."
I do say this is more Earthbound than anything, but the inclusion of a few Chrono Trigger sprites is alright I guess. (The future is just the perfect setting though, don't you think?)
I love that scene in Family Guy, I really do, you couldn't have chosen a better thing to animate!
The only bothersome thing is simply put, all the buttons around the flash, that discouraged me from making this nifty little flash into a mp4 for my iPod. :(
But the sprite editing? Brilliant, they are all perfectly edited.

"What an excellent scene to animate!"
You just gotta love the battle against Magus, you really do.
Right down to the elements of the game it gets things right, to how he has the magic barrier and some of the techs used in game.
At times the animation was a little iffy, like the close up of Marle zooming out, her facial expression? Dodgily animated, but the camera angles used were superb.
Great job man, I love this flash.

You gotta admit this shows how different things were in 2003, there's no way this would get daily 1st these days.
That isn't to say that this is crap, it's decent but nothing special, so Crono beats the shit out of everyone, nothing to get excited over if violence isn't your thing but it's decently done indeed.
One thing that bothers me, a few times Crono leaves his sword behind, but he pulls out another, just how many does he have? :P

After my suggestion to get a Chrono Trigger collection added went through, I decided to view and review a couple of these movies, starting with this one, now that that's out of the way...
The actual game is very good, it plays a bit like Chrono Trigger and the interactivity is good, however the difficulty isn't very nice, right at the beginning enemies deal way too much damage, it's not very balanced in that respect.
It is however well made, for what I was able to do this is definately something worth using to improve on! Nice work.

Although I don't like soundboards, I feel this at least needs saying...
If you're gonna do one, LABEL YOUR BUTTONS.
I have no idea what the hell I'm clicking here!!

All three animations are of absolutely superb quality, no joke.
Seriously, the graphical style is superb, matchs the style of the simpsons VERY well, I can tell you know what you're doing, I have no criticism at all I can offer. :)
It'd be interesting to see the original videos as well.

What a lovely e-penis right thar, stats, lol.
Nicely made submission, I had no idea that could retrieve statistics like from NG profiles.
Think of the potential... all sorts of stuff like comparing the best artists on NG by batting average through a huge database, all automated and stuff, truely awesome...
Nice work man.
Author's Response:
Couldn't do mass pulls on profiles, admins would take a dim view of that. Only reason I allowed it in this really was because people would be opening their profile to fill in the fields anyway - ie, just one hit on one profile. Finding the top 500 or whatever BA artists would basically require grabbing all NG profiles (several hundred thousand database hits), which could potentially be construed as a DOS attack and subject to legal action...

I'd leave a review in spanish, but I can't speak any. :(

"The latter of things at least..."
Listen, there's a whole variaty of capabilities in flash 8 you haven't covered, much like how you can use effects in tweening or some of the over effects, or even the object display options (darken, lighten, overlay, etc.)
Look into that stuff and try making a fuller tutorial, because this is actually something new and well designed, it just needs a lot more content! :D

"If you're gonna do Isometrics, DO IT RIGHT."
Listen, this game is difficult on a degree that it isn't even fun.
Reason being: the ball does not move in accordance to the camera angle.
Listen, what you need to do is make the left and right controls TWICE as fast (in acceleration and decceleration) as the up and down controls, then the controls will work properly like they aught to in an isometric game.
