Not much on this site can give me chills. I don't know how to write a review that can express how excellent this series is. I'll stop now.

"Ack! I can't believe I missed this before!"
I completely missed the post in your forum about this until now! Whoops! Anyway, it's awesome to see another CTU. The jokes were great, as I've come to expect. Love the running gag about Marle's ponytail. You slipped that in to devastating effect. And I can hardly believe the cat came to rescue Crono. Brilliant. xD
I don't really have the patience to look for the secret scene now. I'll probably come back and look for it later.
As usual, I have a little overly analytical constructive criticism to dish out:
1. I don't know if it's just my computer, but the frame rate seemed a little slow at some parts. It was most noticeable when the camera panned down to show the guards in the prison. What FPS are you using?
2. Typos. Not a big deal, but meh.
3. The prison area backgrounds looked good, but were easily distinguishable from the other backgrounds. I know you took screenshots of the game for them. Let me ask... were the original sizes of the two types of backgrounds the same?
Gratz on the award! See ya in the forum.

Hey Magius!
1. Same FPS as always: 17. I think slow down was because I was using the ripped BGs...which were a little larger in size. Although, I haven't encountered any of this lag whenever I view the movie so I dunno.
2. I won't mispell again, I swear! Dammit.
3.Yeah, the sizes are different...I'm gonna try and tweek that for EP 11. I was kinda in a rush to get 10 out, so some of the stuff was unfinished.
Thanks for stopping by!

"You keep getting better and better."
You da man. This series is really funny. I like how you've also improved your action sequences... kudos on Frog's moves and the battle with Yakra. I'm waiting impatiently for the rest of the series. ^,^
Ah! But you didn't include a time gate! You just alpha'd them out! I would think that the timegate portal would be pretty funny to make some jokes about. It looks pretty trippy and seizure-inducing. Anyways, you roxx0r.
Author's Response:
Oh, you have no idea about how badly I wanted to do the trippy time-jump sequence! But I just couldn't find the right sprites or get it to look right.
Trust me I am as disappointed with the alpha-out as you are.
Anyway, thanks for the good words!

This is one of my favorite internet games. Also, I don't get why people say this game is too hard. I think it's too easy and too short. I'm looking forward to the console version, though.

Hey! Glad to see you took my advice about the backgrounds. ^^
I definitely think it should have been longer. I also thought it was pretty funny how everyone laughed super-fast.
By the way... are you still frame-by-frame animating all the walking in the movie? Tweening a symbol would be so much easier because you can just re-use the same thing.
Overall... yeah. It was pretty good. I hope you up the ante with the other episodes, though. :P

I don't agree with TwinsenDude. Sprites can be great, IMO.
I'm looking forward to seeing what you're going to do with the storyline, and how the characters are going to play out. Yes, it was a little slow, but it was a prelude, so I forgive you for that.
The only thing that I kinda had a problem with was your backgrounds. It looked like you took a screenshot of it and saved it as a .JPEG file. I use .BMP, .GIF, or .PNG so they don't get distorted. Also, they weren't in correct proportion to the characters . I could live with it, but... meh.
Well, good luck with your series. I'll keep an eye out for it. :P

That was hilarious. Great job.
Have you by any chance read Mortonhayle's CT fanfic on Gamefaqs? Your style and his are similar.
Author's Response:
Never heard of Morotonhayle's fanfic. I'll have to go read it so I can steal some ideas. I mean get some inspiration.
Shit. What did I say?

"A tribute to a great game and a great character."
That was very good, your music and sounds were excellent, sprites weren't nice and smooth, and the fight sequences are pretty cool.
I noticed how you ripped the attack effects from the game. Kudos on that. I wish I had done that for my movie. :P
Anyway that was great. I'm looking forward to the conclusion.

"Why isn't this on Network TV?"
Jeez. All your movies are incredible.
Your characters, story, animation, and sounds are practically flawless.
This series is much better than most I've seen on Cartoon Network and other channels, like Samurai Jack, etc.
Anyway, excellent job. I can't wait for the series to continue. :P
