Although your stuff may not be the most popular around, you have definitely already gotten a fanbase so to speak. It may not be big, but it's a start at least. Sadly I have no tips for getting more people to follow your stuff, since people seem so picky about what they like to watch on newgrounds these days... other than maybe shorter episodes. 18 minutes~ etc can be a turn off for some people to get started on it, so shorter more frequent updates could be a good start. But I could understand that being hard with the storytelling that you do though.

Anyway, good luck with the coming episodes. I hope that they do as good as you want them to.

Very very impressive. LBA2 was wonderfully composed. A bit slow to start (mainly the air between dialogue), but intriguing and wonderfully stylistic.

Funny, I read that comment about Portal 2 ... I just did two voices from Portal 2 for a commercial project:

pffft, there's plenty of talent on Newgrounds, including yours :)

Hit me up if you need audio sometime.

Having just watched LBA2, I'd be glad to give you some feedback.

First off, I enjoyed it, overall it was well done, and I'm glad you're beginning to get some reliable voice actors to help you out.

Your strengths would be your visuals, how they pack in story and the uniqueness of them. That and your ability to pick fantastic music to illustrate what's happening or to set the mood.

Your weakness is not storytelling, as I'm always intrigued by your stories, but instead how the dialogue tells that story. In short, dialogue is one of your main issues. The dialogue seems abrupt at points such as when it was said "They died". You could sense the voice actor didn't know exactly what to do with that line, it was overly blunt. I've acquired an English degree, and write stories as a hobby, I'd be willing to proofread some scripts if you need help.

Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, it's why movies aren't made by a single person generally. My advice would be to find a scriptwriter whose work fits your style.

I've followed your stuff ever since the very first Reboot, and I might have a useful suggestion. Go back and watch the early Reboot episodes you did. Then watch the stuff that you are doing now. The early episodes for me had a certain simplicity that made them profound, yet still cohesive. The new episodes , while still visually appealing, seem much more unfocused. Its almost as if the original concept was lost somewhere along the way. Your new stuff isn't bad, but it definitely has lost something that the old episodes had. Don't take this as a rag on your new stuff, as it is still quite nice in terms of the visuals. I just don't feel the brevity and completeness the story had at the beginning.
