Thanks for all the comments! All the suggestions so far have been most helpful. It seems the story is on the right track, which is good. The two most common "constructive criticisms" so far have been regarding showing who's speaking in the dialogue (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jul-07, to lugnet.build, FTX)

Very Interesting! I like the cinematic feel you have achieved (I must try that sometime) and despite some dialogue difficulties the presentation is very tight, though maybe a giant 'next' button would be in order. I look forward to seeing more. God (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jul-07, to lugnet.build, FTX)

(...) Very cool. I am hooked to the story already. :-) The only thing I would improve is a method of seeing who is talking. The icons idea mentioned above would work well, but even just the speaking character's name before each line would work. In (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jul-07, to lugnet.build, FTX)

Thanks for the positive feedback. We'd hoped other folks would enjoy our strange experiment! Nicole and I really like the avatar idea, too. I'm going to play around with that and see if we can pull it together. I think that combined with some of the (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jul-07, to lugnet.build, FTX)

There's so much detail, I feel like you know where you are going with it (something lacking from so many web comics). The mystery (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jul-07, to lugnet.build, FTX)

Several months ago I built some LEGO SOMA puzzle cubes with six smooth sides. Now it was time to build something to store the cubes in.

Thanks, Ted! Glad you enjoyed it. We're looking to do a new episode every 2 weeks. The issue of showing who's talking without speech bubbles was challenging, especially since our actors refuse to open their mouths! We're trying to get better at (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jul-07, to lugnet.build, FTX)

That is really compelling. Very movie-like and something I will be following. I noticed that as it went along it got easier to tell who was speaking as it was a little hard to follow in some of the episode 1 panels. Is there a way to watch it as a (...)
