Not much new to report this week, new baby is doing fine... fine at reducing my sleep by 20%!! (*buddum-ching*)

I'm working on a new painting in my painting class... I'll post it in the Art Portal when it's done. I learned how to build and stretch my own canvases so that's PRETTY MANLY!

I finished a new Android app for a church contest... you're welcome to download and play it here, though you probably won't like it unless you're LDS... fair warning!

I really need to work on Super Chibi Knight... motivate me!

You're a very bad one then.

BoMToons 2014-10-08 19:56:38

Now that I deleted the troll comment your comment seems so mean spirited!

Sertrinous 2014-10-08 22:19:29

funny, why isn't there a comment rating system on this stuff?

BoMToons 2014-10-08 22:19:29

This is the most excitement this page has seen in YEARS!

Speaking of babies, do you watch Homeland? The second episode this season... Man.

That's cool about the canvas stuff, I saw you asking LilG about that!

As for Super Chibi Knight, have you hit a wall on any particular thing that is making you feel discouraged?

Right now I'm working on a King Kong style boss and the whole dynamic of letting him reach into the building for various things is making me kinda crazy. Oldschool games just had floating arms with no effort to actually attach them to the body with joints or realism.

I'm gonna spend most of today popping in temp vocals I recorded last night... Have a fun interactive dialog sequence in mind.

BoMToons 2014-10-09 11:08:53

I don't watch homeland, but I read the episode synopsis... heavy stuff. I have a sister in-law who struggles with postpartum depression and some of the thoughts that pop into existence can be pretty dark.

I really am excited about the canvas thing. There's something that feels "right" about being involved in the artistic process from start to finish... like making a cake from "scratch" or building your own arcade cabinet + hardware + screen + game or something...

Are you messing with inverse kinematics for the King Kong boss to make his arm movements dynamic and programmable? You could prob. fake it with having like 3 or 4 points/zone he can reach for to grab stuff and doing straight-up art for those scenarios.

You should really do more voice acting in games... which reminds me, Luis and I have a favor to ask eventually... :-D

2 mormon girls come to my house lately, i didn't have to say them something because i'm kinda sceptical about mormon book. But they seem a very nice persons, they always smile and always suggest for a help. But before that i have seen a lots of generations of mormons coming to my house... i'm in doubt! 2 years ago this activity started. I took a book read till zarahemla part, and then stop reading this book because of laziness. But it kinda interesting not just a gospel but something really interesting. One time i was frightened, every time they come to me they force me to baptise. it's kinda creepy if you look! but anyway you decide you want to be in LDS or not.

BoMToons 2014-10-09 13:24:35

Sounds about right. Hopefully they're not forcing you to be baptized though! Good luck!

Wiesi 2014-10-09 14:16:09

YOU CAN DO IT!! WORK ON SUPER CHIBI KNIGHT!! GO!!! :D

BoMToons 2014-10-09 14:16:09

YES! POWER GATHERING!

TomFulp 2014-10-09 15:06:42

Not doing inverse kinematics although I really should give that a shot, didn't feel necessary for what the boss is currently doing though but that could change.

I wasn't planning to have my voice in this game but now that I'm doing temp voices for a bunch of characters there's a decent chance some could stick. Really want this game to be a whos who of NG voice talent though, just want to wait until it's all more solidified.

BoMToons 2014-10-09 15:06:42

Just do all the voices yourself... GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT TOM!

Lionelion 2014-10-09 17:32:02

Super Chibi Knight, is like, a super epic game already even though its not finished yet. How could you possibly need more motivation to finish such a game?! GET OFF YOUR ASS!

BoMToons 2014-10-09 17:32:02

Yes, tell me more!

OatmealPecheneg 2014-10-10 06:53:06
