Zoe

Posted by TakaM on June 17, 2007, 2:22 a.m.

Still a bit of a work in progress, but since we've decided to hold the demo back an extra week, it gives me time to spruce up the new cut scene.

In the current build, Zoe just runs past the camera, and then the camera catches up to her just after she enters her home where Twinsen is still asleep.

I still haven't finished her animation, but she'll stop and open the door, plus I'll draw up some nice frames to go with what Zoe says to Twinsen.

And I'll make a few more frames for Baldino.

Also talked to Cocopuffs about some more improvements to the cut scene, I'll have them all ready by the time he gets back.

Today, some retard added me on MSN, asking me if I wanted to give up coding Twinsen, and code his game.

Already mildly disgusted someone would think they could just request something like that, and a bit more pissed off that he didn't even know that I don't do the coding.

So I told him my friend does the coding… Then has asked me if he'd want to ditch Twinsen and code for him.

That was enough, I told him to fuck off, and he was all "whoa, what the hell?" but then he said "that's cool, Ive got a friend who knows every language anyways".

Let's assume for the moment that this moron does in fact have a friend, then really push it by assuming this friend is some genius who not only knows every coding language, but somehow has managed to keep himself from committing suicide because of the fact he knows this idiot;

Why would he even bother trying to ruin another game to get a GM coder when he's apparently got some master coder as his back up?

Obviously he was just trying to save face, so that's fine.

Except I said all that to him, then I saw him transform into an elitist.

Was actually really funny, because he was too stupid to pull off the ambiguous analogies and metaphors, so all he managed to articulate was boasting that his friend "loved to learn", and that's why he knows every single language.

Just before I blocked him, he told me to "get off my high horse"

Ugh.. some people, first he added me, asked me to drop my own game, then asked to steal Cocopuffs then tried to talk down to me, as if we had some deal I was breaking.

Regardless, it was interesting.

Alright, back to work.

BYAAH!

Hahahaha. Those guys are somewhat usual. If they can't get something, then their "big brother" or "older friend" comes in and takes you down :D That's just hilarious. (Those can be seen in MMORPGs a lot)

Zoe's animation looks otherwise good, BUT her eyebrows looks too masculine. She looks a bit like she's a transsexual :/ But that's just my opinion :D I know there are girls with thick eyebrows, but I think in game like this, you should change that :D

hmm, they're supposed to be her eyelashes, you see them as eyebrows though?

They look like eyebrows. It's just too visible at that resolution.

Maybe if you had a blinking animation then we would realize it, but they do look like eyebrows. =) Nice work though.

Hmmm.. I think instead of having one straight black line, you could shape it to fit the eye more. Perhaps perforate the line as well. Then it may look better.

Considering the massiveness of the powerslide, I think she's walking along a bit slow.

TakaM 17 years, 5 months ago

well, I kinda slowed her down due to my laziness, and so it would be easier to read

Cool, Zoe looks great. So, by the way, can I have, uh, some of that there Twinsin coding?

Lol. If these people keep getting your address, it's most likely cuz of an account on GMC or some shit like that, but it's simply funny to see these sorts of morons. I want to get to know how to hack so I can scare the shit outta them if they ask for something I made. :P

Edit: Holy shit taco, that article on that museum was just too damn funny, it was worth reading the whole thing, XD 'Don't think, just believe' what a load of bullsh**

I have fallen in love with your art style.

I get those sorts of IMs all the time TakaM. I tend to ignore those people. I removed my name from the GM Mentors list for a reason.
