Woop woop! I approve thoroughly. Also, meta submissions are awesome. Good luck in the next round!

Excellent!

Nice work. The only suggestion I would make is that I, personally, would use "Mr." instead of "mister". Just my thoughts.

AH-HAHAHAHAHA

That was hilarious! Best flash movie I've ever seen on Newgrounds.

I loved it! The mechanics and controls were polished, and the atmosphere was great. The use of tone and color palette in the retro setting was brilliant, although the dirt was an eyesore (perhaps that was the intention?). I think that the darker tone was successful without being needlessly depressing or sacrificing the retro homage.
Music is fabulous, kudos to Calamaistr for a somber 8-bit soundtrack, which is no minor feat.
The game mechanics were quite nice
Cool little secret area, although I was hoping I would get something out of it other than a few lines. This is the kind of game I would have liked as a kid too, and my sis enjoyed it.
The built-in walkthrough was useful and informative in a type of game where getting stuck often causes frustration.
My only real gripe would be that I didn't get to use the grenades as weapons more than once and even then it was optional with no reward. In the same vein, each fight or puzzle only had one solution. I would have liked if I could use the wave blast to hit the bridge switch or the last boss.
Also, I felt that the consequences of my actions weren't clarified sufficiently in the ending, merely implied. Just a few more lines would have pulled this off.
Altogether a wonderful piece and a worthwhile use of my time. Good job.

Fun, deep, and addicting. Shows effort and care - easy 5.

What do you know, I hate money too! I should have you over for some water and saltine crackers some time.

I was hooked from the start. Juicy synths and groovy (albeit a tad simplistic) beat. Nice work.

Catchy, although the neener-neener is annoying. Clever challenge and a very unique take on it. Well done.
