A very good idea, but the challenge seemed to disappear in the last half of the game. Also, the lack of a congratulatory screen or even some kind of acknowledgment upon world domination was a bit of a let down. If the role of diplomacy in the game were expanded, perhaps it might have more intrigue (that is to say, currently, states are either owned by you, neutral towards you, or attack you on sight. The first two are only distinguishable from one another by the ability to buy troops). There are a few minor glitches; one is able to click any of the public facilities in hostile territory instead of engaging in combat, which seems to be unintentional. A light scattering of typos through the game ('pionts' should be 'points') seem to detract from it a bit.
Still, I gave it an 8/10. Something like this must have taken a good deal of effort to program; I tried my hand at flash programming, and it's certainly not an easy thing. Hence, I tip my hat to you, designer. In fact, there are a number of features I like about this game; the fact that you can begin as any of eight separate characters, in four different nations, the fact that your character's visual equipment actually changes when you wear something different, and the presence of enchanted items to spice up equipment selection are all very beneficial to the game. Keep up the good work, eh? :)

I do tire of seeing people raked over the coals, though. I don't doubt that your efforts were well-meant... you show promise. I'm eager to see what kind of works you'll be capable of in the future.
Good luck. I won't pound on you any more -- plenty of other reviewers have done that already. Good luck in the future, and take care.

It's amazing how much you can say with so little words sometimes.
I enjoy your movies, though they are rather dark. I definitely have to agree with the underlying message.
Are you sure there are enough people on Newgrounds with the intelligence to comprehend a thoughtful movie? Well, it seems to be doing pretty well anyway... good work.

Oh yes I do! This movie was great! Awesome cinema techniques.
You really one-upped your last ninja movie with this. The graphics aren't phenominal, but are more than enough to get the job done.
The soundtrack was awesome, also. Love it. And your style of humor is most excellent -- continue the good work! I can't wait to see more!

Having drawn my share of art, I cannot imagine how much work that took to do in such a manner as that. I am thoroughly impressed! Though it doesn't have much complex flash involved, it's still a very amazing effect through creative artistic means. Great job. I'd love to see more stuff from you!

I have to say, that is quite a compliment coming from you. I watched your "Magus vs Lucca" flash, and that was just amazing. I hear that you are coming out with "Magus vs Lucca 2", and if that is true, I am going to be the first one to vote 5 on it.

Could you shed any light on what it means? o_0

At any rate, I love Nef's art style and Metal's animation. I find these movies very amusing. Keep it up!

LOL! Somebody actually found it. That's a crazy song translated to english. It was/is a fad in Clockcrew. Didn't think anyone was gonna find that, thanks for the review.

*Sigh* The message was all too true. =)
Nice graphics, great animation style, and wonderful sense of humor. I like the interactive part after the credits, too, that was fun!
Keep up the great work!

A great animation to a great song. I love how you portrayed it. You have good skills as an animator -- I'm thoroughly impressed. It must have taken much more patience than I know I'd have. o_o
Excellent work!

Wow. This movie was impressive -- I loved how everything flowed so well. It really just keeps your interest, very coherent -- and the integration of plot and humor is excellent. If this were a bit longer, it would be absolutely incredible! -- as it currently stands, this is really, really great!
