Now suggestions time!
The main flaw in this game is that you lose lives so fast, it makes the game not fun to just keep restarting. Now I'm not saying make it easier or anything. Perhaps you could just double the number of lives in this game? It lacks that
Secondly, pressing Z every time you touch one of those mines or whatever they are, doesn't always work. Okay, maybe pressing Z is a good idea but you should make it so that it's instant instead of being directly on top of it to make it work. If that is too hard to input.. then perhaps just make it so that you don't have to press Z at all and only touch it? I love the boost idea, idiots who don't want for the screen to move further down would use that to smash into a wall, lovely. Don't alter the boost, it's awesome. Perhaps you could make it so that there is a sideways boost as well? It wouldn't give too much advantage in movement but, there are some juicy looking horizontal lines sometimes which I can't take out due to that Z button problem. Fix those two problems and the game will be much better. I vote 5 for you.

Hey Arnas, Thank YOU for making the music =) it's great!
A few people have mentioned the lives. It is a hard game, and I wanted it to be that way as a challenge to try and complete it. You do get an extra life after each level, so if you try to get through the first couple of levels without losing a life, then you will be in a better position to try and complete it.
The z key problem completely baffles me. I had the same problem, but I thought it was just my keyboard (which is always getting stuck). The code is set up so as long as the "target locked" graphic is showing, you can destroy the target. The lack of response sometimes is really strange.

To be honest, I had a similar idea to yours. This style is awesome. I don't know how long you took to make this but I'd recommend making a second part but with blood and sounds in it. Also I think the yellow guy at the end should have gotten stuck instead of getting killed. It would have made it more original looking. All of these people also died in the same way. I liked how that guy lifted up the block with his two hands. That was probably my favourite part. I understand how hard it was making this. Are you going to make another?
Author's Response:
I'm not sure, if i do it's going to be a project for home because i did this in school so i wanted to keep it clean as to not get in trouble... But i guess if people really did like it i might make a second, any thoughts on names?

You made 7 episodes already? I think I missed out the rest. I only saw the first few and now this. You're getting much better at flash! I voted 5. As for suggestions. Try to use more gradients I guess. Maybe make the circle things not look the same? Like have differet eyes. Gender etc
Oh by the way. Want to use some of my music for these in your future flashes?
Author's Response:
lol yeah, my episodes have been moving faster than i really expected. thanks your reviews and feedback!

Well it was funny I watched until the end. Sorta slow in ways and the voices were good. Don't worry about the graphics. Maybe you were meant to make them like that... I can't believe I was eating while watching this! Appetite! Well good work. It was sort of original but got a little crazy near the end
Author's Response:
Thanks ;)
Yea. Me and my brother gave eatch other 30 minutes to make a movie. So i could'not make to serius animations.
But this movie are 3 movies in 1. I released them one by one on my own homezite :)

It was great but short. No matter what the flash meant it was nice fun and easy. What is that music at the ending can you please tell me?

chase or something :/

This seems like a new idea never done before. Updating by itself.. that's great. But people could actually see all the gifts with flash decompilers. Right?
Author's Response:
Actually it doesn't update by itself. I'm not that good. I have to replace the file everyday with a different one. And yeah, you should be able to see all the gifts for that day like normal.

For some reason. I really don't like randomness movies about nothing just random stuff. But for the first one. One made me laugh. And it's this one. Well done. There was a lot of randomness going on. Voted 5
Author's Response:
Thank you! Katamari, if you've never played it, is nothing but randomness and has often been referred to as "video game crack," so I was just aiming for that.:P

Right. The graphics weren't good stretched and the style was meh with no plot. I put 10 for sound because you used Prodigy. I voted 5 though. I only laughed at the dynamite part cause it was just too random and with Prodigy music playing. Work on the graphics. Then think of a plot
Author's Response:
Yeah, I tried to make it kind of random with a slight plot (very slight :P) and the graphics? I thought they were ok, though I always have tons of room for improvement! Thanks for the review!

So you made another. The music this time was so much better. But I think the way he swallowed them was a bit too unclear. I know it's hard. I liked the ending though. Maybe next time you should make it faster? Them showing their emotions with eyes took a while XD
Keep it up and all that
Author's Response:
hehe actually this was my very first Dots flash so that's why it was a little slow and a little weird.
thanks for the good words!

Sorry for the low score on the sound but I guess it's my personal problem that I don't really like trance. I think it was funny as heck especially when I could predict what would happen. The graphics are okay and this is a lovable flash
Author's Response:
yeah, not many people really like it, but i felt it fit with the Flash.
thanks for the good words =)
