Terra is damn flashy

[Terracosmo]

And damn bored, so I came up with this.

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/7861249/

It's basically a short and (too) serious flash movie.
Read the description before opening the movie. It has story and some important info.
Hope you like it.

Oh and if you think it's cheesy, don't worry, it's supposed to be.

[ShinobiNeko]

That was pretty cool, I liked it... but... i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif sad ending

[Terracosmo]

Thanks! I really appreciate that you liked it.
Yeah the ending was sad... actually I was aiming for everything to be sad. I mean, grey colors and stuff... and well, just cruel. i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif
Thanks again!

[ShinobiNeko]

np.. but yeah with all the grey colors gave it a sad atmosphere. so, you make flash movies when you are bored?

[Terracosmo]

Well, not usually. But the ideas for this one came when I was bored... so that's the context which I ended up using, heh.

[ShinobiNeko]

lol oh.. well it was still good ^_^ .. if you would have said yes..i probably would have said maybe you should be bored more often i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

[Raven]

Heh, keep making movies Terra, maybe next time you can add some voice acting!

[Mut]

dude... that was fucking cool.

[miaka]

i love it

I fiddled with that idea, but I figure my lacking voice would only bring disaster to the tension... battle cries is easy, but dramatic speech... that is haaaard!

Anyway thanks again people i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

On a related note, I'm doing some kind of Naruto flash next. Comedic, using screenshots, like the infamous Kabuto Dreams.

On a not-so-related note, I added some random junk like photos at the page where I put my flash.. go check 'em if you are bored </shameless plug>

[ShinobiNeko]

i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif .. that's cool if you are going to do a naruto flash, i thought the kabuto one was kewl ^_^ maybe your's will be better .. n nice photo's by the way

[Shadow-wolf]

Awesome. Who are the characters based from?

[lionheart1012000]

awsome flash, and i liked how the music seemed to fit the battle ^_^

[Terracosmo]

Thanks i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

@Shadow-wolf: They aren't really based on anyone, I just named the young one Terra due to lack of ideas because from the beginning I wasn't even sure if it was going to become a full movie... then it eventually did so, so the name was kept that way.

[Rek]

hm... I dunno...

because you named him Terra I knew he was gonna win. didn't really ruin anything, but you might want to keep that in mind for later flashes

[Terracosmo]

Originally I only planned to show it to my IRL friends, which has no idea my online alias is Terracosmo... so I never bothered to change it.

Also, in a way, Terra is not the one who wins i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

[ShinobiNeko]

well, I do agree that when I saw the one nammed Terra..I had a feeling he was going to 'win' but also have a point that he kind of didn't win due to how it turned out

[Terracosmo]

Yeah, Skarj was older and didn't fear death while Terra had to bloody his hands with his friend's death and all that... look at me talking about the emotions of my characters i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

[lionheart1012000]

dont worry terracosmo, i think thats actually a good sign. of what i cant remember ^_^;

[Gods_Son]

I don't like flash movies, but that wasn't bad.

[Terracosmo]

Well old Terra went and did it again.

My new flash is another pretty short one which makes fun of fantasy by summarizing an entire tale under 3 minutes. Be warned though, the tempo, jokes & music together is insane. And that's just what I've been trying to achieve i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

[Raven]

Hahahahahah that was damned funny.

I love that part "Now I fall in love with you for some reason!" i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

[ShinobiNeko]

yeah, that part was pretty funny ^^;

[lionheart1012000]

funny, weird, and i liked the song i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

[Terracosmo]

Thanks i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif Was the font hard to read btw?

[Raven]

Nah it was fine.

"I've always loved you like a son!" Wait a minute, didn't they just meet? LOL!

[Terracosmo]

Cool, but just in case I've made a new version now with a better font. If anyone didn't like the last one.

Haha yeah they did, isn't random stuff just too great i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

[Shuurai]

nice i liked the music at the end isint that the music from metal gear solid when he kills sniper wolf?

the first movie i mean

[Terracosmo]

Yep, it is i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

[Shuurai]

i knew it

just watched the second made me laugh good job

lol, it was a tad hard to read but it wasnt due to the font. the text just went a bit too fast for me ^_^; god im slow.

[Terracosmo]

Yeah I need to slow it down I think. Flashy flash. i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif

[Washuu-chan]

terra is a newbie

[ShinobiNeko]

terra's flashes are cool, either way.

[Terracosmo]

Amazing how I hate you more by every post you make i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

Anyway, I am indeed a newbie although it's a not-very-secret dream to one day become really good at Flash.

[Knives122]

That was funny for my standards but too random

[Uchiha Barles]

"I CAN MAKE EVERYTHING GOOD AGAIN!!!!" Terra...what a schmoe! I hope to see more Terra's adventures in the future by the way. You could name them The Adventures of Terra or The Terra Chronicles. The second one was hillarious by the way. i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif

[Terracosmo]

Haha i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif thanks... yeah I've been playing with the idea of building a story around No Mercy, like a prequel or something... who knows, who knows... glad you like it anyway!

[miaka]

i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif i love your video

[Terracosmo]

Thanks i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif

[Terracosmo]

Not really a new movie, but here's the main characters of my upcoming project...

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/8285544/

Yeah I'll be drawing 'em myself this time if all goes well. I'm Lanfawn btw.

(Click the image to enlarge)

[Uzumaki Naruto]

Intresting

[Terracosmo]

Yeah, one day it might look less like crap too. *Dreaming*

Here's a close-up of my alter ego, too.

[PSJ]

cool, the pheonix wasnt all that good i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif it was a dragon i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif but nevermind that great flash and the sad ending was great to good job terra.

[Terracosmo]

Phoenixes, dragons... who cares aslong as they have wings i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gifi/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif lol

[Terracosmo]

Oh look Terra did it again!

http://www.deviantart.com/view/9006831/

So stupid!

[Mut]

it seriously took me like 10 minutes to figure out that i can't move the character. must've bashed every key on my keyboard like 70 times each.

but it was quite entertaining =D

[Terracosmo]

loool! well one day I might actually figure out how to make the sprites move using the keyboard...

[Raven]

Help meeeeee..... I'm stuck on the credits page. ;(

[Assertn]

are you using button symbols, or movieclips with on functions for the interactivity? One thing i'd suggest is setting a hotspot so the mouse doesnt jump between the spaces in the letters and such. (for button, its the hit frame, for movieclips, i just add an invisible graphic on a seperate layer)

[Mut]

rofl, i was about to click that but i saw terra's warning about clicking that button. there is no way back!

[Terracosmo]

Assertn, I'm using buttons. And that's a good idea you have there.

Yeah you guys are right, it's the Credits button of doom! You can only go back if you... well.. right click and choose rewind... :s
