First of all, never brag about how long your movie is. It makes you look either egotistical or naive (or, in this case, both). I would have much rather you have shortened the absurdly long pauses and made this into a 60 (...or, y'know, 30...) second clip. Second, those SMBZ effects are way overused. Sort of like Sonic sprites as a whole. Try coming up with a different concept altogether.
Oh, one more thing: pink Knuckles = worst recolor idea ever. I highly encourage you not to do it again.

Thats a official form dumbass NOT a recolor.

So after reaching Mars in a measly 6 days, I bought some upgrades and got to 100,000 feet on my first try, after which I decided to simply stop controlling the hedgehog and let him fall.
That was roughly 25 minutes ago. I'm still at 85,000 feet.
My point is that, with all the extra upgrades added to those from the original game (most notably fuel suck), the algorithm for spawning platforms should have been modified (perhaps slowly decrease it based on the amount of money earned in the current flight?). Still, the game is fun and extremely funny considering the relatively small amount of text there is over the course of the game. Overall, I enjoyed it.

"I have trouble thinking of accurate review titles."
The questions themselves were okay (although no one but a Metallica fan would know any of the answers), but the flash itself was poor. The quiz consisted of questions you typed up (which probably took a whole thirty seconds per question) and the put on top of pictures you most likely got from Google or other soimilar sources, many of which were distorted when you inexplicably tried to make them fit perfectly on the stage (hint: tall or wide pictures don't look so good squished).The various screens that pop up when you miss a question showed more lack of effort, cotaining simply a drawn message, sometimes a completely useless hint (such as on question 10 when you hint at the standard guitar tuning when anyone who knew anything about tunings would know that already; a more useful hint would have been what chord(s) the song uses) and a button that often attempts to be witty and fails miserably.
Personally, I recommend giving up on quizzes entirely and making something completely different, perhaps a Metallica music video instead?

The intro was definitely my favorite part, but the whole song was great. In my opinion, this is probably the most versatile of your Battle Themes (i.e. the one I think would fit best outside an RPG, too).

When you said hectic, I thought you meant a little more... "action packed." After listening to the song, though, I see what you mean and I like it. I like how you mixed in the piano with the more traditional DnB stuff. It gave the song a nice almost calm feel even though it was pretty fast-paced at times. Keep it up!
Author's Response:
thank you :) Yes hectic was in the sense of the drums and the melody bending :D

And I thought I hated classical. Silly me.
I like the drums; they added a good "moving forward" sort of feel. The strings at the beginning were good, too.
