I thought that overall the little snippets were humorous or otherwise interesting, and the minimalistic sketchpad drawings went well with them. Maybe if you could find some way to cohere them to each other, or otherwise one long stream of consciousness, otherwise I loved it.

"That's where they come from :O"
I think that whole 'getting-shot-out-at-high-speeds-like -a-cannonball' thing happened to me too :P so I can relate.

I love how every element of this flash comes together to create a truly movie-like experience. The voice acting is top notch for flash, and well recorded, and well synced. The animation is professional in quality, and smooth in every form possible. The polish is incredible (the battle in the dark, with all the sparks and lighting going every which way, looked fantastic). Overall, everything came together incredibly, something rarely ever done in flash. LOVED IT :)

I felt the game looked great, in terms of pixel art.
The music was great, and even better, it was well synced to the environment. This is how it is a rhythm game, all of you wondering that, you have to predict obstacle movement based on the music.
It seems most are complaining about the difficulty (whether they admit it or not). However, if you use your eggs, and use them at good spots, you'll be able to get through the levels with enough effort.
Great overall! Not perfect, but certainly better than the press it's getting.

Very nice use of proper perspective. The crow looked really well done at all angles. And the animation was really cute and nice for halloween. I especially liked the glowiness of the pumpkin tongue.
Also, for future reference, people refer to this site just as newgrounds. No space needed :)

"Response to difficulty complaints (and review yeh)"
So, I was able to beat it with minimal health loss simply by jumping. A lot. You have to be air borne with normal enemies. With Tricky, just dodge and shoot to match his motion patterns. They repeat at the same time delays.
Now, as I've said so far, I found the game awesome! The art was wonderful (hand-drawn look at every turn), and lots of boss fights mean lots of variety. My only problem was with the normal enemy fights. Once they drop their weapons they lose all diversity and challenge. It gets boring; they can only melee and it's repetitive, like this sentence. Thankfully, you kept those segments short, and the rest sweet. Great job!

That pretty much sums up the plot of the show.

"Where can I find the Danish Rapper version?"
And this game itself was pretty good. Not being able to move was a negative, and upgrades were a bit too hard to get, considering the low starting max ammo. And gameplay got a bit repetitive, since you really only ended up shooting in one direction.
But Danish rap could totally spruce this up.

Yes, it was well animated in terms of sprite movies, and it could serve as general mindless entertainment, but I'm pretty sure I've seen this exact concept (mario confronts a shell and then proceeds to do something unorthodox with said shell) played out in a variety of ways several several times before. Yes, two severals. And that's quite enough. If you're going to do a sprite movie at this point in internetz time, you've got to do something original.
imo, anyway, but yeh.

I'm pretty sure you're well mistaken. While the whole "use Mario to do random things" has been used several times before, this take on it most certainly has not.
Original doesn't always mean better and overused doesn't always mean "not funny".
To each their own ;)
