Masterpiece
I'm impressed by that flash, deeply impressed. You are a true artist!
Story and concepts are original, fun, it's all perfect here!
Arts are of a unique quality, something rarely seen here on Newgrounds. There are a lot of good artists, but these shapes, these colors, they were amazing. It comes along with the animation, which was fluid and rich with visual effects!
The music..... god, I shivered toward the end, how the grandpa's tale grows into momentum along with the music in crescendo to reach a climax of pure suspense! I'm still shaking! The whole setup is not without reminding of the hollywood movies, the way the generic comes brutally with the music shift.... I love it! Not just for the story, but for all the technical aspects AND the EMOTIONS that brought in me. The singing part of the beginning is putting us into the mood of the little boy, listening to an intriguant story, then we got the action scenes, satisfying some people with the little dose of violence and fighting, and finally, the DRAMATIC end of Tarboy, and the tremendous buildup of the conclusion....
I'm awestruck, flabbergasted, whatever you want, I am.
Congratulations. For the flash, for the music, for the feelings!
