Hmm, interesting..

-real world-

I got my real skateboard back! I also got new laptop to add to my collection, ( 2 laptops, 3 desktops ) all of which are chillin' in my room. :)

-game maker-

Recently I've began to notice how much better of a programmer I have become, since my first game almost 2 years ago. Yeah, two years is a long time, but only in August did I start to get really better. Anywho, in my last blog I mentioned a game I was working on, (yet again with Joseph) called Motion. In the previous post I showed you guys the mock ups, they cant even compare to these!

Yeah, its all online now, and with great looking effects and particles! (don't mind the fps, I was running the server, and about 20 other things, It runs at ~55 fps on my computer, and its 5 years old!) So yes, that's motion!

If any of you can remember back to April when I announced Treesun, well, that project was canceled a while ago, but, the kid who is doing KKO now, offered to start it back up. I couldn't refuse as I still love my totally dead Treesun.

-other-

There isn't much else to say, 'cept, its October 1st..

So yeah, don't do drugs and stay in school!

Well that looks sexy in nearly every way. Are the bubbles in the first screen's UI a particle effect or just pasted on the buttons?

The background of the screen are particles, and man, you should see them in motion!

I've been using GM for 4 years and I'm still too lazy to learn D3D and online programming. Nice graphics by the way.

menu looks nice.

I don't like that character sprite in the game.

High-class, man. Not a lot of people pull that off well. I can't wait to see them in motion!

And the character sprite reminds me of a Tonberry from Final Fantasy for some reason.

ark drew that character…and for some reason, he's hunched over looking. the normal character will have several races, all with either different colors and/or horns and/or height. they won't go too out of control though. also, what he didn't mention is that this game is viewed at 2x zoom, all the time. so small now will actually be decent size and easy to read.
