"From the animator of "Ghostbusters: TAS""
I'll try keep as unbiased an opinion as possible in light of our connection with GB: The Animated Series, Brad.
Firstly, I see similar comments here as with the early GB: TAS episodes, such as issues with sound and background art... the backgrounds are really up down to whoever draws them... but if it's possible, it might be worth looking over the settings of sound recorder to get the best overal audio effect.
The story seems... a little disappointing. Sections of the dialogue seemed a little cliched and also seemed a bit of a step back from "Cabin Fever". Though, the creator of the series doesn't have to write it... just ensure the plot works to their vision.
Sound wise, it was okay... though I cringed a little when a car tyre squeal was used for the main character sliding across the rooftop.
Character wise, despite the DBZ overtones of the original designs, I kinda liked the concept art better then the final stuff.
Certainly an interesting looking animation, but with areas for improvement, and don't feel chained to doing something that might fall into the average anime cartoons you see today... try use stuff that brings fresh and new content to a stagnant genre.

Thanks for the honest review man! I understand your dissapointment with the backgrounds, I find them to be very flat and boring myself. (Couldn't change them since I was already 80% done.) The story, however, is going to be a little spread out since this was originally only half of the episode but it got too long.
Anyways, honest reviews like this are a great way to improve things. Thanks again, man.

Well animated and styled animation, but the file was a little light on the laughs, sadly.

I'm not much a follower of the series, but it was a reasonably funny animation in the vein of 'The Decline of Videogames'. Nice work.
Though that Christmas flash that was being made is indeed terrifying. ;)

The 'Children R Scary' series has always had original design and presentation in it's favour, and this is no exception. Fantastic work.

Aside from a few teething issues during transition, a brilliant game. Great work.
