Its good
Its well presented and its got a clear message. The graphics are very good and so is the animation and sound.
I found the transition from bad to worse on the planet, then from animation back to painting intriguing and impressive.
I definately feel, though, its missing info, in two senses.
1. Surely it involves something other than Flash in there- people will want to know more about how you got those effects.
2. Having grabbed people with this guilty message you haven't directed them with an option of further info. Text, stats, official quotes, links, Wikipedia... Since your flash is in the top 20 this week and in a collection its still being seen so please do something NOW.
I fet you were on the edge of comedy there, just a hint of expression and nuance. I feel a slight change in the words etc could make it really quite funny, which equals memorable.
In these two ways you would be making the most of your skills and this moment of peoples attention. Remember also that most people on NG are just flicking through and will rapidly more on to the next thing to see/vote on/laugh at etc, so those few people who are really interested in your work or your message are the most important people to cater for, both in terms of your score and your message.
I'm so glad admin suported it, in a quieter week you would have won an award with this score- bad luck!
As an active environmentalist I am pleased to see this work and this competition. Lets hope we can make everyone pull together.
Best Wishes to all those fighting the fight for our environment and our future from the Dragons & Spirits.
