Nice work, it's always fun to watch the LL and CC collabs. I particularly liked Wonchop's bit, with the solo, but the whole thing was pretty cool, even if it didn't make a great deal of sense in terms of linking the different clips together. Well done.

Your issue with the scoreboard is caused by Flash's sandbox security, I had the same problem with the scoreboard on the original Overrun. If you want information about the fix, email me. My email is in my sig text on the NG forums, use my profile to find my posts...
Good enough game, could still use some graphic improvement (backgrounds in particular), but quite enjoyable for a few minutes. Keep up the good work

Thanx alot mate! I will e-mail you, i know about the graphics, the upgrade from 0.9 to 1.0 should cover those :).

Very, very nice for a first Flash. Unique graphic style, interesting subject, cool music, and a very reasonable filesize. I'm extremely impressed, and look forward to future episodes.

Great game. I saw it come through the Portal yesterday but was too busy on my own project to play it properly. I just sat and played for 2-3 hours, finishing on day 600 (the last 250 days were spent flicking between day and night, creating and submitting Flash to get my Flash points up).
Suggestions? Blam/Protect and Reviews were both way too easy - took me quite a while to find out how to buy Flash, maybe you should include that in the helpfile - emails are a fucking nightmare (but I see you're working on that) - could do with more music options, or at least a longer loop.
Nice coding, and pretty polished graphics. Enjoyable to play for a few hours, although I can't imagine coming back to play it again. Overall, excellent job, and respect due for producing an extremely high-scoring non-sex Sim. Congratulations on Daily Feature & Front Page and, I should imagine, weekly first.
See you on the boards soon!

Thanks for the thought-out review : )
Yeah I know the music gets annoying, but with the filesize so high already I didn't want to add any more :/

Finally you've got the award you deserved! So MASSIVE congratulations on that... as always, it was a great pleasure to see your name come through the Portal yesterday, I'm glad you're still making the mations. I have to admit I didn't like this as much as some of your previous ones (Clay Shrooms in particular), but your style is still head-and-shoulders above pretty much every other claymator on NG.
Cool beans, keep it up.

Thanks a lot for all your reviews, they've all been really helpful and motivating. I am going to start making funny ones again, like I used to.

Poor. Pretty bad flash, really. No redeeming features whatsoever.
Also fairly annoyed that you removed the button from my Movie Control MC that allowed other users to download and use it. You could at least have split the button in half and had your site on one side and the MC download site on the other.

Bullshit, I made that with the flash buttons provided in Flash MX and a friend helped me with half the actionscript. This flash isn't bad, its badass! booyah.

Very nice animation. Extremely smooth, pretty damn professional in fact. And I love Scott Joplin's music, so bonus points there.
Unfortunately, the filesize was too large for the length of the movie, and the film kind of stopped when it was getting interesting. I know stop-motion auto-creates large filesizes, but I feel that you could optimise this so you could either have a smaller file or a longer story. It might help if you used Flash as well as After Effects
Anyway, pretty impressive. I look forward to future episodes.

Ugh... 4.13? No way does this deserve that. Mildly amusing, the usual limited graphics... not the best rant ever, by any means.
Pfehh. You know that with your reputation, you'd still score high if you created some new characters to work with... so why don't you?

Heh. Saw my name in the audio credits, thought "hope this isn't crap". Watched movie, some excellent FBF work, impressed but.... where's my music? Checked alt endings, all pretty damn good... finally found my soundclip under 'bloopers'. How apt.....
really great work. Very impressed.
Author's Response:
well, took me forever to find a good bloopers music but yours was the only one that worked! (sepct for another one of yours) but you have some pretty good music to use. thanks for the revie too ^_^
