Whenever did you get into Flash game making Wiering! It's good to see you here my friend. About the game... well this is a lot like your original masterpiece Charlie the Duck 2 but I see you have taken out some fun elements like diving into the water and coming out into a brand new area, and the lack of music makes it a bit dull. Anywayz I wish you good luck here on Newgrounds and hope you submit more flash games and perhaps even some flash movies here :-)

Hi CHRiS, good to see you too! I just started writing Flash games because I can reach much more people with them (many people don't want to download / install games anymore). Yes, the game is very small compared to Charlie II, this was more a test to see if it would work. Now I can start making a real game with it!

"You make a good point about modern art..."
...but by doing the exact same thing yourself is NOT going to make a powerful statement, Your description was just a poor substitute for hard work and a miserable excuse to submit some crap to the portal without getting it blammed. I pity all the other hard working flash artists who work so hard to get to the score this piece of crap got.
I gave it a 0/5

Keep in mind, this is Clock Day. Worse things have passed with higer scores. In fact, a few hours ago, I id infact see a flash that was soley a small, black dot on a black, white background. It passed with a similar score.

"Nice graphics but too short and pointless"
Yeah nice graphics but that's about it with this one. There is absolutely no real plot, and I guess the basic message you're trying to convey to kids here is (like every OTHER cartoon ever made) that Classical music sucks and rock and roll rules. Being a VERY big fan of Classical music myself I was rather disturbed by this, and I think Pachelbel Johann's original Canon deserves more respect on it's own and needs absolutely NO rock and roll substitute or a fancy lead by every 'Slash' from GNR wannabe to make it more interesting or beautiful in anyway. Perhaps one day you and the majority of people out there will realise the true great classics as they are.
This cartoon is a real slap in the face for those who've spent years developing a skill and taste in Classical music only to be blown away by some sappy stereotypical electric guitar lead. I myself have gotten a Grade-3 degree in Trinity College of Music London in Piano and trust me it's NOT easy to find people to appreciate and encourage me when I play the Classics. Classical music is already a dying art and cartoons like yours don't make it any easier for their survival :-(
For now I voted a 3, and am giving this review a 5/10 purely for good animation and graphics style.
Author's Response:
Well I see what you mean, but I suppose I would argue your point. I grew up learning the classics from Looney Tunes and have subsequently had an appreciation for classical music my whole life. I rock out to Beethoven's 9th in my car all the time. I don't mean for this to be a slap in the face of classical music, but rather an homage or appreciation of what classical music is. I love the traditional version of classical music, but I love it when people do different takes on it as well. I think any kind of awareness for classical music will get people to go back and figure out where the original came from. It certainly has for me.

"Cheers for Reporterclock! Hooray for Clock DAY!!"
Wow, best animation for Clock Day yet! Not really a fan of clock movies myself, but this was just a perfect Clock Version spoof of the 'Ultimate Showdown' I couldn't resist giving it a 5/5!! Great job!! Btw, Clock Day in Newgrounds falls on the exact day my country (India) got Her Independance (August 15th, 1947) A tragic coincidence :-(
Oh well, Happy 59th Independance Day fellow Indian comrades, and Happy Clock Day to the rest of... er Newgrounds folks?
Btw the 3-D turning of the room in the beginning was soooo cool!!
Author's Response:
Thanks! That was hard work. Happy independance day!

This has some standard humorous elements in it, like when the news broadcaster searches for Jenny and tries to replace her with a hand puppet, the cops stopping for donuts at Starbucks during a highspeed car chase etc.
Pretty stereotypical kiddy stuff, but still it's kinda amusing to go back and live the days when being funny was so simple and innoscent. Overall, I think you did a great job, especially since you did all the voices, including Jenny, yourself lol
Btw, where IS Jenny anyway??! :(
Author's Response:
I like to think she quit because she was sick of how unprofessional the rest of the news team was. Actually I should revise this and work that in somehow...

This game is amazing! The clues you have to pick up, the interaction with the surroundings make it very brainy at the same enjoyable as great care has been taken on the creativity of each situation as well. The probing through the monster's stomach was breathtakingly imaginative! The graphics and animation were ok, but the story line is so eerie and mysterious it captivated me to go further and further into the game!
Good job!! I voted 5/5 btw wooooooooot!!

"Funniest Football World Cup movie YET!"
That was funny dude, and soooo true to each team! The talented Brazilians, the Marching Germans, the brutal hooligan English... and then especially with the Jamaica team where you put the question mark and the guy kicks the ball and falls over lol!!! Good animation, graphics ok, but could've used more countries in my opinion :(
Hope to see a sequel!!
Author's Response:

"MORE than a Great Animation, but an inspiration!"
Sometimes when I am asleep I dream of this movie. I dream of running faster and faster like Bitey, until the whole world had become nothing more than a blur. The clouds, the mountains, the great oceans zooming past me at amazing speeds. Running away from all my fears, my nightmares, the darkest moments in my life, until I become like the very wind that could never be stopped no matter the obstacles that life throws at me. I become the purest form of Nature that looms over the world with ungodly power. And finally here, my mind free from the bonds of reality, I slowly gather my true inner strength, the confidence to face the very troubles I was running from, to stop turn around... and CRUSH every plague that dampened my spirit, every worry that darkened my soul, every incompetance I felt I was cursed with, until they all become like the dust of my feet. Even the darkest cloud now disappears, the shackles of slavery are broken, and I am now not only free and powerful, but one among the greatest creation of the universe itself.....
In other words... I am a MAN!
Thank you Mr.Adam Phillips, for inspiring me with this movie. I am forever indebt to the brilliance you've shared with us all here.
