....O_o

Wow. That was.....different.

X-3 · 12-10-2004, 10:04 PM

I didnt get it...

Ike · 12-10-2004, 10:25 PM

Umm, ok...

Glyph Phoenix · 12-10-2004, 10:28 PM

That's because there's nothing to get. It's a piece of crap. There's barely a plot, crappy font... the only good things about it are the grammar and graphics, both of which are decent.

The title is crap. Fix it.

Get a basic plot hammered out clearly before stuffing stupid action sequences in it.

Cataclysmic Paradox · 12-10-2004, 10:37 PM

It's hard to read the font.

REDJ · 12-10-2004, 11:01 PM

i dunno which is worse, mine or his.... although.... he DID put more effort into his than i did in my first. I think it mught evolve into a nes vs snes war

thunt · 12-11-2004, 01:33 AM

'Kay. Here we go.
Good points:

I can see it. That's always a plus with my computer.
Um... the backrounds... aren't too bad.
... I'm kinda out of this stuff...

Overall, an interesting concept.

Bad points:

Text= I can't see!
The vivian sprite looks awkward.
Aiiiiiiiiieeeeeee!!!! Author character!!!
It was kind of hard to understand sometimes.
No plot, just a teaser.

Like I said, interesting concept. But it needs work.

ummmm...what the hell just happened?

At first it seemed mario was dead...then he was alive, but luigi died...but it's luigi's dream...so this really doesn't have anything to do with the story, right? or does it? for the love of all things good and non bad please tell me that was just a dream comic, and the real thing is coming up.

AND CHANGE THE FONT!

Mikhail Gorbachev · 12-11-2004, 10:14 AM

Ok, I'll fix those problems. I'll completely remove Vivian and get rid of the teleport soda thing. I'll also make this longer and make it easier to understand. I used that text because I always use it for my comics, but I never had trouble reading it. I'll fix that anyway, since no one else can read it. I might not finish for a while, I have art school.

thunt · 12-11-2004, 10:45 AM

Here's what I think is going on:
Lario is dreaming, and I guess it's reflecting real life. The different sprites are in a war with each other because of bittage prejudice. At the bottom of the ladder are the 8-bitters. Kinda like African Americans when America was segregated. Then after he wakes up Muigi reassures him that other sprites would not use nuclear weapons on them. Then Lario gets run over by miniature cars. Meanwhile, a penguin randomly appears and says stupid stuff. (I just said that to get you to stop using him unless it's absoulutely necessary)

Fix it or I shall send the Graemlins after you!

I'm back, and almost done redoing the comic, I'll have done in half an hour.

Mikhail Gorbachev · 12-11-2004, 01:30 PM

sladd54 · 12-11-2004, 02:00 PM

Alot better. Still didn't make much sense with the dream...but, pretty good.

X-3 · 12-11-2004, 02:53 PM

Better, but Lario's text is hard to read.

thunt · 12-11-2004, 03:24 PM

That's one's better. The ninja trainer guy's house is cluttered though. I was confused where they were, because there was so much stuff.

Mikhail Gorbachev · 12-11-2004, 03:24 PM

The house is cluttered because he wants it to be hard for people to escape, hence the locked door.
Edit: Next comic Sunday, a short now.

I haven't given you a rating for this one because it's on the line between "Good" and "Meh."
And pass the salt. But no floppy disks. Those are SO high in fat, doncha know.

thunt · 12-11-2004, 05:04 PM
