Still doing stuff!

Posted by BoMToons - November 28th, 2017


This is a quick update to let you know I'm still around and teaching Game Development to high schoolers!

One of my students submitted a couple of her games, check 'em out and leave a review, she's really appreciating all the detailed feedback she's been getting! (good job Newgrounds!)

Every day I think: "Man, I wish I had this class when I was in highschool!"

There's also some talk with @luis about reuniting to revisit an old project for its 10-year anniversary... but I'm keeping it hush hush for now...

Also, we got a new car!

I did Inktober back in October, and it was a learning experience! Doing non-digital stuff was a nice change of pace. Here are some highlights!

I should really upload these to the art portal I now realize...

What have you been up to for the last few months?

Hugs and kisses,

ahhhhh those bird drawings are incredible! also I can't imagine how cool it is to see the outcome of teaching someone how to make games.

Thank you! Yeah, it's like teaching someone to be a wizard... when it all clicks it's like:

Good to see you man! I’ve been voicing stuff, but mostly studying my butt off hahah! Physics is pretty damn hard :P And for sure, get those pictures into the portal immediately!

Nice! I hope the VA work is going well. Physics?!! Wow! Do you know what you want to do with it?

Your Inktober is amazing, your art skills just keep evolving, you're a MEGA-TALENT! Definitely pop some in the Art Portal.

I'm also popping Dracolich on the front page!

Aw, thanks Tom. <3 I'll upload to the art portal right now!

Thanks so much for front-paging Dracolich, I sent her an email informing her about the honor, I think she's gonna be over the moon!

Here's a sneak at your hush project.

Tee hee... the "Flash" gravestone is so fitting... think we should make this game in Flash or not?

Hoping to offer my skills and knowledge to the Navy hahah! Looking to become a Nuke :}

Oh! I see! Will you fit in the torpedo tube?

I would not have expected this from you, gj.

Why not?!

Hell yeah, twin uzis and launch me out, destroy everything!

Now that's science I can get behind!

Those...are great pieces, the most beautiful ones. I don't have words, are made too well...*speechless now. Great job! Hope to see more awesome pieces like these :)

Aw, this warms my heart! Thank you for reaching out.
