Good Points:
Loving the art, its so smooth and very arcade like, Jeff and Stamper are so good at pulling off this sort of thing and I am very impressed with The-Swains programming abilities, never thought he had it in him. The introduction was very good and the music is top quality and fits in very well. Speaking of sound, Stampers voice acting with the voice actor made me think "Wow, thats professional, I feel like I'm playing on the SNES." Except the art was so good, the SNES couldn't top it.
Bad Points:
The difficulty however, really puts you off after awhile rather than going for it, I feel like I'm not working towards anything, like an unlockable or something. The introduction menu is pretty confusing at first as the colours are so similar and jam packed on the screen it makes you navigate 5 times around the same area before realising what to do.
Overall:
Very good game. Original stuff, it's nice to see we are developing for shitty little basic platformers.

This humor was excellent, I love how you portrayed the elf and how he ended up. The animation was smooth and fine, the art was clean and original on your part. It seemed to me like a plot of a movie over in a minute and a half, which I seemed hilarious, I especially loved the part at the end with Santa, didn't see that coming, nor did I see the elf joining in. The music was great, I can see why you didn't need any voice talents, it would have ruined the protagonist aspect of the main elf.
Bad Points:
I think you could have made it longer because it didn't seem to me like it was a 'short and sweet' flash, I felt you were just lacking time or something, I think you could have delved into the north pole section more, perhaps if he explored the workshop and came across more things he didn't expect, like weird reindeer or something.
Overall:
I very much loved this flash, but there is definite room for improvement. Good work mate =3

Definitely improving, because I've been watching your animations over the past few months and your style of animation was original yet sketchy at best, but I love how you are combining filters and photoshop to create a great mix of art and your overall abilities to animate are improving substantially. Nice funny moment at the end with the Santa Claus and the 1UP mushroom, made me chuckle. I can tell you have actually played Castle Crashers considering you based the animation around an actual level in the game, it gave me a sense of familiarness that made this flash make a lot more sense.
Bad Points:
In terms of improvement, I think you should concentrate mainly on anatomy, because there were moments were I thought to myself "That arm looks wrong.." or "His leg is very poorly drawn." I also think you shouldn't have recycled certain symbols, mainly the snow enemies, I think it would have looked better if the enemies were bigger in quantity because let's face it, it's always fun to see something differ greatly from the norm.
Overall:
Great animation, I really like your style. Good work.

Very tranquil, peaceful and emotional, very easy on the ears. It's gradual and it builds, but not very much though I'm sure that's the point of this tune.
Consistent, great tune.

Sounds like a backing track to rap to, very R'N'B sound there.
I especially like the simplicity, very easy on the ears, well done.
