"technically ok, fun factor no."

the "play again" button at the end of the game doesn't work. i had to exit and reload gas to play it again. at the 3rd time i've decided i won't ever play it.
controls are absurd: pushing 3 times in a row the spacebar... why don't you vary the keys? at least 2 different keys, please. and why i do have to use the mouse to navigate into menus? make it all playable by keyboard.
the jump-section is too short (for a game; in real life maybe it's accurate) so i've got to push randomly quick spacebar e hope it's the timing is perfect. so, enhance flytime.
it's not about skill.

"some useful tips but..."

submission: How To Animate Walking

date: May 7, 2009

apart preventing the usual "skating effect" giving specific tips to apprehentice animators, i've got to say that the example animation (graphics interely provided by the author) is poor, especially for the torso/arms part.
tutorial interface is clean and provides that "back" button forgotten by most devs.
text explaining the animation steps is clear and understandable.

Score: 8

simple, easy and quick.
ok, it covers lateral viewing only, but that's the mostly used in games. watching this stickman animation tutorial, everybody can add their own style/technique (pixel, vector, even handdrawn on paper!) based on strong fundamentals of animation.
