Re: *BLOOGVILLE* Episode 1 Released!
That's ridiculuous!

I hate geocities!

It doesn't let u do anything!

EDIT : Don't worry about it, it works now. It needed time to add the data. If it doesn't work now, I will make a new site and tomorrow or maybe later I will add the movie there.

Garg! I couldn't even find it! :)
Little tip, when you post that something your new project is done, could you give the complete link to file, not just a link to your main site?

Ok, downloaded it...

Short form of my official review of it: Huh?

I'll wait to give the long form of my review later after some other people comment about it, but I would only recommend this download to high-speed Internet users, as this is a 5 Meg download.

I'll have to agree with Ilsaop there in "Huh?"

Also, that file could've been about a megabyte smaller if you had just dropped using Install Maker and straight-out zipped the thing.

Re: *BLOOGVILLE* Episode 1 Released!
Sorry everyone, I apologise for the inconvenience,
I had to because it was such a big download, and I wanted
to make it as small as I possibly could have.
If you seriously cannot find it try this link.

Bloogville Episode 1 Site

And then select Bloogville Episode 1 on the download page.

Or if the link doesn't work, try this link to the website UnFleexable Software Website and then click the download page next to the UnFleexable Software Logo and then select one of the downloads, the first once you'll probably see is Bloogville.

If you don't download this episode, you probably can't watch the future episodes properly because this install file contains dlls.

ILSOAP! OH MY GOD! You were the first one to see it?
BTW To People who didn't watch, I was making lame jokes
about Shadowlands during the animation.

1. When Butch was watching TV, an ad for Shadowlands Episode 2 had come up for the 'Screenhog Network'.

2. When Vivey was walking into the "Horizon", Shadowlands Music Started & Xena said 'Okay this is gettin' really wierd!'
(Drums & Cymbals!)

Next Episode : I will either make fun of Dopefission or S3's RotB trailer. Most likely make fun of Dopefission next episode because it's more suitable (hmmm... a clue...)

I wrote Ilsoap's name as a star in the credits (even though he didn't do or wanted to do anything in Bloogville), so I'll be making cameos of his animations throughout every episode.

Re: *BLOOGVILLE* Episode 1 Released!
Just downloaded it, even with my 56k modem and my reaction is somewhat similar to Ilsoaps:

"Huh?"

No offense, but the animation was... well... strange. It seemed disjointed and it was hard to understand the characters talking. It didn't make much sense either.

That's the link for it too, btw.

Re: *BLOOGVILLE* Episode 1 Released!
OK, well, I'll start with the good. I liked the viva. The viva had good expressions and movements some of the time, especially at the part where he/she was fighting that grabbiter (I'm assuming that was a grabbiter).

Bad: Um... storyline? What exactly was going on in the story? I could not, from watching it, tell you what the whole thing was about. Partly it was because I couldn't understand the voices, partly... it just didn't make sense. I know that I could find out the storyline by reading about it on your site, but I shouldn't have to. I should be able to understand it and enjoy it as I'm watching it. It was an all right first attempt, but please, PLEASE get a storyboard/script together for the next one. It helps a lot! (Trust me.)

Also, it was hard to tell which stuff was a TV show and which stuff actually was happening live. I think you had two different stories happening at once, but I'm not sure.

3.75 / 10

(Oh, and if you actually want eK to stop calling you a moron - assuming he has been - you might want to change your sig.)

Yes, I had made a script & a storyboard. It was only bad due to lack of actors (and LinkTempleton signed up as Mortimer at the last minute so I refused.) and hard to make them show expressions when the actors don't have them.

I will post the storyboards for eps 1-2 very soon but here's the drafted script.

Act 1 = The Chungella's House

(Butch is watching TV)

Jill : Oh, Come back to bed Duke, I'm ready for some action... Now!

Duke & Jill : Oooohh, Mmmmm, hahahahaha

Butch : Pornography has lost it's way, what do you think gang?

Ceilick : (Groan)

Gik : (Mumble)

Butch : Damn Right!

(Butch's Stomach Roars)

Butch : Man, I'm hungry.

Bloog Announcer : Get ready... for the best cartoon series ever!

King Lick : Gentlemen, I stand before you today, because if I stood behind you, you wouldn't see me! Hehehehe!

Bloog Announcer : The 2nd smash hit episode will be airing on your screens tomorrow! Only on the screenhog network. Don't miss it!

Butch : This sucks... JANE! I'M HUNGRY!

Jane : Justy, your daddy is hungry.

Justin : Hey Xena! Fetch dad some food!

Xena : Like, Whatever, Hey Emre, get some food for your dad!

Emre : I don't want to...

Beetle : HEY EMRE! Did you forget about me?

Emre : Hey, Whoah! Oh, Okay, Get some food for your dad, Beety.

Beetle : Get some food for my dad, Vivey!

Vivey : What food? Doesn't your mom cook enough for your family?

Beetle : I have an idea! Get lots and lots of Vivas so daddy can drink them all!

Vivey : But I AM a Vi-

Beetle : Mwah!
(Blowing Vivey a kiss)

Vivey : I can't believe how dumb she is!

Beetle : (Singing) Yay! I'm Dumb! Hehehe!

Butch : (Distant Yelling) Isn't anybody gonna feed me?

Act 2 = Vivey's Vevehouse
Vivey : I guess I have to leave this place if I want to live another day...
(Vivey packs his bags and leaves the Chungellas, forever...)

Act 3 = The Route to BASA
Vivey : Oh Beetle, couldn't you just...

(Bumps into Grabbiter)

Vivey : HEY! Watch it!

Grabbiter : Oh... another one of them...

Vivey : What do you mean?

Grabbiter : You were forced to betray you're own kind... didn't you... But you stood your ground, and refused.

Vivey : True... But it's not any of your business, so back off!

Grabbiter : Oh... touchy...

Vivey : Hehehe (Embarrassed)

Grabbiter : If you want to survive and not become Viva Juice, hide inside of my mouth. Trust me...

Vivey : What?! Viva Juice! It can't be! I'm not coming with you!

Grabbiter : Fine, become Viva Juice, it's your loss...

Vivey : Wait a minute, I can fight you myself.

Grabbiter : Hehehe... Yeah right!

Vivey : Just watch me!

(Vivey Kicks Grabbiter)

Grabbiter : Unnnnnggggg....

Vivey : I can't believe it! I WON! I KILLED GRABBITER!
I'll show him who's going to become Viva Juice.

(Shadowlands Music Starts)

Xena : Okay, This is gettin' really wierd!

Act 4 = Mortimer's Hidden Fortress
Mort : So... Have you done what I have told you to do?

Michael : Well sir... I couldn't.

Mort : WHY?! YOU WERE SO CLOSE!

Michael : Well, i'm not a nice enough guy, that's what ladies like.

Mort : Let's see what she has to say about that...

(Looking watching tv.)

Jane : Get down from there you stupid girl!

Beetle : Make Me!

Jane : You son of a... *erm... You know...

Butch : This sucks... JANE! I'M HUNGRY!

Jane : Justy, your daddy is hungry.

Mort : Oops! Wrong Tape. Either way,
You better earn her heart back... or you will lose your life... MUH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!

Michael : Where are those sounds coming from?

Mort : Shut Up! You'll be joining them soon!

(Michael falls somewhere... Reveal next episode)

Michael : AHHHHH...

END

That's the original script that I had written. Sorry if you didn't like the first episode. But the next episode WILL be better if I get more actors.

Re: *BLOOGVILLE* Episode 1 Released!

WTF?
As bizarre and sometimes difficult-to-hear as the Bloogville animation is, I'm still gonna support your noble cause by hosting the file on my server for a while... just while it's still too popular for Geosuckies. Great stuff. It made me laugh. :rollin
I can't wait for episode two.... But please, maybe convert it to SWF as well as EXE, if possible. SWFs are typically smaller, even if not everybody can run them.

Re: WTF?
It was made in KNP, not flash. I don't know if KNP has it, but at least TGF+ has the ability to make it an online file, played with Vitalize.

This would be smaller by far. So if Unfleexable wants to send me the source file, I could build a .ccn and host it online.

Re: WTF?
No, it's not capable of being a SWF. But maybe, UnFleex, have you considered making it more of a comic form? Instead of actual voices, just have the words pop up in little comic bubbles? That would make it easier to understand what they're saying, and cut down the filesize by a lot. (much less wav files to deal with)

Re: WTF?
Yeah, my suggestion is either that, or get a better mic. Also, in MMF you can set sounds to be compressed, so it would decrease anyway if I built it.

Episode 2 is named 'Help Unwanted' for anybody who wanted to know. And there will be a will be a turn for the best for our favourite bucktoothed underwater critter (in the GBC version, he can only be found in Fribbulus Xax so this is a good break for me!).

Yes... :dopefish will be the star of episodes 2 & 3. (The End of Episode 2 & the beginning of episode 3).

argh...
i set my 56k modem to download this, and it did a miraculous job, downloading it in under an hour (hooray!) however... Xky's computer is apparently way too old to handle this animation--double-clicking the game-start icon gave me a "not enough memory" error. *sigh* had to uninstall it and delete it.

although the general feedback has been mixed bag so far, unFleex, don't let it dog you too much. my best advice to you is rather than try to set schedules, deadlines, and pump out volumes of stuff... instead pick one project and really focus on it--make sure it's got some quality control in it. show parts in progress to your friends, family, your dog... SOMEONE who can give you feedback. especially if they've never seen Keen before--someone coming in with no information can tell you a lot about your approach. often times what's in your head doesn't get truthfully conveyed in your work on paper/disk.

the script you posted had a couple of moments in it that made me join the crowd in just saying "huh?" like when the various Bloog children are firing down the chain of command as to who has to get Butch food--unless there was some obvious visual aid that the script left out, it was kind of hard to follow the "hey, you skipped me!" concept.

i shouldn't really open my mouth about this at all, considering i haven't seen it... but i doubt i'm going to get a chance to. my computer isn't up to snuff :-( besides, the more i talk about quality control now, the more i'm gonna get reamed when i release my 2nd mod sometime down the road *laugh* i'd better zip my lip tight and hide while i can.

i totally support any and all efforts you can make to switch to the SWF format with Flash... it loads faster, doesn't have to install anything, and best of all--Xky can actually SEE it! ;-) *bricked*
