  1. Amateur Game Making Night

    Yup! I have a shit ton of animations to do now, but at least that's the fun part. I have plans for different kinds of weapons, enemies who move on different divisions of the beat, and maybe some other stuff. I probably need to get more organized but this is hardly a massive project! EDIT: Also welcome Gravedrinker!

    Dropped frames, but when you see the player or a red square disappear it's been shot by a yellow beam of death
  3. Plug your shit

    Amazing! Also I have the same tablet as you.
  4. Jake's Portrait in Danger Sort Of

    I should probably email again to confirm from the yahoo mail account linked to the flickr, or in some other way link that account to myself. EDIT: Sent it from my yahoo email, which is linked to my flickr account.
  5. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    So this has been an incredibly awesome ride for me so far. I had only marginally been thinking about doing art, and family pressures and self-doubt had prevented me from pursuing that track earlier in life, but this whole experience as a sort of testbed for myself made showed me that more than anything I'd like to make cool stuff for cool people for a living! I was really astonished when I found such a supportive and enthusiastic (if a little adorably creepy) community behind one of my favorite podcasts, and I'm definitely staying for you cool cool people. Even in the short time I've been here, just seeing that there are openminded and enthusiastic folks (especially on the internet) willing that do crazy things like this has greatly influenced my life in the past few weeks. I'll be taking commissions or applying to internships somewhere, building up my portfolio and sprucing up my shambles ass tumblr in the meantime. Anyway I'm almost done with the sap (promise!), so thanks to Idle Thumbs for ten years of amazingness, thanks to everyone for their support throughout this whole thing, and especially to subbes for putting it all together!

    It's gonna be 10 PM out in the East coast so I'll be in the chat. FOUR HOURS IS NOT SOON ENOUGH.
  9. Idle Explorers (Spelunky, um, thumbs)

    Siiiiick! Remo as a lucky charm is interesting, haha.
  10. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    Oh wow wow wow sick sick sick Once the Breckon damsel is done I can rest. I think you can replace sounds in Spelunky so I dunno maybe something like "And I'm Nick Breckon" for the cry for help. Or that might be getting too creepy. Not sure if the world needs a full Idle Thumbs Spelunky mod. Fuckin' psyched for the portraits to arrive EDIT: Haha yeah I was hoping those sprites where the ones where he's falling from a jump so he'd see them all day. But alas I have no idea where those went, haha.
  11. Amateur Game Making Night

    Fo sho. I was actually pretty surprised at the amount of programming going on during it; from now on Sunday will be my "fix my code please" night.

    The tracker says "Hold at FedEx location request received" but the ETA's Tuesday. Maybe the depot is...closed today and tomorrow? EDIT: Oh haha they have to deliver it to the holding area. To Future Jake: We are as tense as you were on Sunday.
  14. Amateur Game Making Night

    Yeah the IRC could be an all-week thing and the Hangout could be used on Sundays.

    "@ja2ke Can't handle it. I will drive to the depot and pick it up" ohhhhhhhh shiiiiiiiit

    As I understand it, the chance that it would show up is really minimal. Though I could always delete that tweet before he sees it...

    I've inserted one half of the diptych in Dom2D's Museum of Parallel Art, which is like a local multiplayer art appreciation game set in a virtual museum. The creator asked a lot of artists to submit their pieces to the museum, and each round has a random set of pieces displayed. I've notified Jake that if he hunted for it in game he would find a little sneak peek.
