The quality of animation was brilliant, even for this style of animation, though some fluid sequences had a few visible corners. Though not enough to bring it down.
The story was pretty original, in a way, the idea of robots coming back as tar was quite cool, I think. The artistic style was also very creative, similar to that of The Pink Panther, which is always entertaining. The special effects were, simply put, amazing. They were smooth and very detailed. I'd like to see how that is done.

It's clear a lot of effort went into this, and thankfully effort prevailed. This was a very entertaining flash and I'd like to see a sequel :D

Why must people's nuts always die XD

Nut crusher!

Storyline - 8

The general storline is quite good and original, but the script is a bit cliche at times and when the portal and Mario's friends randomly appear unexplained, that was all too cheesy.

Graphics - 8.5

Sprites were okay. Your Dan Dark sprite could use some work shading wise and he seems a bit too squared/ cornered. Special Effects were great, You should use blending modes to get rid of the black on some of the effects (eg. dust twirl)

Sound - 9

Voice Acting was off but you noted that so I'll put that off. Most of the sound effects were in the right places so Sound was fine.

So using the median principle this flash was a 8.5/ 10 and using the rounding up rule it rounds up to 9/10

Overall good flash :D Can't wait to see 2B
