This game is fantastic. Don't get me wrong, it pissed me off to no end and had me sweating bullets as I grazed past a rock within a hair's width, but that's what I love about it. It evokes that nostalgic feeling of old video games where one hit meant death and you're always on your toes. The trial and error constantly pushes you to give it another try and it's extremely difficult to give up and walk away.
The music was great, fit the mood perfectly and was very catchy. The pig noises, well it was probably just because I died so much but I found them a bit grating after a while, especially since they were so high-pitched and loud. Would be nice to be able to disable them, but it's a great incentive not to die so I don't have to hear that squeal again.
It looks great too, very cute and very vibrant. Everything's clear and easy to see, which is helpful in a game like this. I've not had as much challenge in a flash game like this in a long while, I may even come back and try it backwards, just for that medal.

Artistically I feel this movie offered very little satisfaction to the core audience being targetted in that it failed to address the key conventions present in a flash animation. The audio was out of sync, the animation was cut and dry and the story was convoluted and nonsensical.
Perhaps you should try programming instead.

The animation was superb, vastly improved from the early episodes whicn weren't too shabby to begin with. Your visual style is clear and distinctive, instantly easy to recognise and fits perfectly with the type of humour you have going here. The slight facial animations and movements really paid off, gave the characters that bit more feeling to them.
The voice work was great. Never have I heard Speakonia or Microsoft Sam or whatever robot voice that was used to such a good extent. To take a cold, stunted robotic voice and draw humour out of it is definately worthy of praise. CB's strange voice is by now endearing and fits the character. The rest of the voice work was swell too.
Feels like I'm gushing, but I really do love your work and I look forward to the next part coming out tomorrow. I don't understand why you wouldn't have just put them both in one part though? The runtime might have been too long for the average viewers attention span I suppose. Still this episode didn't feel any less complete and it made me laugh, keep it up, look forward to the next one.

This was a nice piece but I felt more could've been done with it as a whole substantial song rather than a 19 second piece. Had a good build up with the beat and the snare but just seemed to end too quickly.

I needed to make a quick song for my school project for a power point, and it didn't need to be very long, so I put it on NG for the heck of it and it scores almost a four out of five with me not voting on it once.

Seriously though the guy behind the counter did sound a whole lot like Bill Cosby, rum raisin pudding. Overall it was good, if not a bit long for a newgrounds audience, even I had trouble sitting still for 5 minutes.
The voices were sound, they were clear and comprehensible, the only thing I'd suggest working on was the pace, though I wasn't sure if this was improv or read off a script.
Just keep it up and don't start talking really fast, swearing and constantly saying "WHAT THE FUCK I DIDNT EXPECT THAT?!" llolololololol

I did the entire thing as a one shot improv.
And yeah, I realize it is a bit long and probably really nonsensical.

One of my favourite tunes from the Sonic games, and it's finally done properly, wish you would do more like this.
