but too slow. "newground flashes are for people with short attention spans" lol, take your own advice. the voices sounded good and everything, had bad mouth movements but was way too slow. speed it up to keep interest. also you had some pretty funny jokes.
4/5 nice job.

smooth programming. its was occupying for me simply because i have some radio on itunes playing some trance... it would get boring without something else. no sponsor would want this as of now. its too boring an generic. you should consider all the things the others have said they are all great ideas. looks like you have your own geometry wars going here... except its worse o.o so don't go for the classic enemy and shooting thing. i think the different colored and worthed blocks would be cool and the time limit to get to say 100 would also be fun. uhmmmm and another idea would be to have the blocks change to negative value after it blinks a bit. so its a risk to get higher points...
keep it up but elaborate and be as original as possible.

pretty cool series. lots of clips that are irrelevant to each other and the fight scenes are a little short and boring- not enough variety. uhmmmm and also don't do the blurring clip in the middle of a fast movement. the one example that was really obvious is when the blue fairy flailed her arms in the air. you blurred the movement waayyy too much for how slow it was. its not that important but its something you could work on. and your dubbing is really smooth i think that's one of the stronger things about this. the audio is also reasonable quality but you need to find more voice actors. a lot of them sound very similar.
4/5 keep up the series!

your composing isn't really that bad, i'd call it more sporadic just work on your transitions. but you are really being brought down by the quality of your instruments they are all really bad quality. i can tell from the harpsichord that you use fl. try to master your sounds and perhaps more easily just find some guitar samples on the internet. go to the forums and ask around. you had some parts that were perfect for a video game battle song. i think you could break off into that genre very easily and be successful in it.
4/5 good luck on future songs.

"pretty much killed the original..."

you got all the notes right and stuff. even though i think remixes should be more than just a change of instruments, at least you didn't fuck up the notes and rhythm. so as the others were saying its empty because of its lack of a bass line but also because of its airiness and lack of a strong instrument with some power to it. all of these instruments were compressed and had a lot of reverb and were relatively quiet. i don't know why you'd take a strong, fast paced, intense song and make it completely mellow with no "bulk". was that what you were going for or something? if so, sorry but i didn't like that- just my opinion. the amount of flanger you put on the bg sounds was unnecessary i think. aaaaannnnddd uhmmmm. it was well mastered not too preset-y. the bell is kinda generic though. so yeah, lacks body, has an unorthodox theme, and it goes well with itself (the instruments fit with eachother).
so i can see you don't like bad reviewers, gave you an extra piece of mah mind for ya... good luck on the remake. i hope you do consider at least a few of the things i said :]
4/5

at first i was like meh i don't have high expectations for this but you really drove it through with the sfx, perc, and pads all running at the same time. most of the instruments are very high quality and you have a nice atmosphere of ambiance and airiness. i liked it. your kick had the nice ... "wuhmp wuhmp" thing going but it could have been stronger. and the whole time. i was wondering. damn when is the bass gonna come in. then i realized my sub woofer was down and little bit... turned it up and still i could barely hear it. you should pump that up in the climax.
5/5 obviously. this should be 1st on the weekly best in my opinion. this is waaayyy better than g-R's song... no offense to him but you put a lot more effort into this and it shows!
im working on a trance song now and i might finish it soon. ill pm you for some advice on it if you have the time or if i ever do finish it.
