Crits and good screenshots welcome.

my favs: the infinity flower remix of moving kalideoscope and fallin
crit: some of the simple presets feel like fillers.
rating: 3 :winamp:'s outta 5 :winamp:'s

Hmm... I was hoping for a bigger responce. Bad timing? Exams? I dunno. Well, thanks for the reply Montana. I assume that by simple ones you mean 'waterbugs' and 'missile swarm' + their remixes. (I like the hyperspace mix)

Ah well... atleast two people have downloaded it now... maybe the means I'll get another review.:D

I don't know why I just waited until now ti d/l it... anyways...

Overall : 3/5.

Originality : 3/5

Nothing's exactly revolutionary, and heck the SSCs from "Escaped Superscopes" seems like Marco's "Science of Superscope"...
More remixes than originals, too.

Aestethics : 2.5/5

Some are slightly trippy, some are boring (sorry), some are... average. They all cancel each other out rather nicely.

Completeness : 3/5

Not a big pack - but more Rmxs than originals is... weird (except if it's an all-rmx pack).
It does provide a rather nice variation of presets... not quite enough to bump it to 4/5 tho.
'Sides, some of the presets look almost the same (Take inverted remixes).


Suggestion :

For the originals, add more and add quality =)
For the remixes... try to give a somewhat drastic change (Underwater rmx - Only AVS Artists will prolly notice the difference)
For examples of great remixes... look around this sub-forum. Lots of good remixes 'ere.
For originals, again : All complicated SSCs + DM,DDm,M are made step by step. To decode the bigger DMs other great artists made, look step by step - Don't get overwhelmed. You can learn about stuffs kinda better this way. Most of my AVSs' DMs are simple as heck
(You've DL-ed my pack right? Look at "Marble Floor" (Use Fast Brightness x0.5 if necesary), look at the DM (Not the alphablenders), and look at it step by step. It's just a simple movement-OnBeat randomizer.

(Suggestion's overall : Learn, buddy. Try to make better RmXs, too)

Good Luck!

Well, it would be kind of hard to review yours if I didn't DL it. :p

Constructive criticism is good. It's the only way to improve (well, aside from practice :) ). All I ask is an honest review, no need to be sorry.

btw, my superscpes are alot simpler than marcos.:p
