Animating and Game development

Animation is hard. This is known by anybody who animates.
I may be uploading a short animation sometime this month. It is simple and short (But funny) I hope you enjoy it.

Also, I have been thinking of ideas for games to make. I had an idea to create a momentum-based fighting game. Think Sonic the Hedgehog's movement (In the early games, not these awful new ones) combined with 1v1 local fighting. I have a lot of things to work out before I even start on it (Engine etc.) but who knows? maybe I will actually put something out!

Watch out - Microsoft products might make Bing/MSN your defaults

The title pretty much sums this up.
When installing things like Office, OneNote, or Skype, somewhere in the bowels of the installer there are two buttons. One makes BIng your default search engine. The other makes MSN your homepage. Both are checked by default. This is the tactic that adware uses to get on your PC. It is the sort of thing that makes me lose trust in companies like Microsoft. It targets ignorant people who quickly click through the installer and then wonder what on earth happened to their browser.

Follow for follow on Twitter

Why? That is all that I ask.
Why do people do follow-for-follow on twitter and other social media? I haven't a clue. The only people that I follow are my friends and people that I enjoy viewing on youtube. Random follow for follow requests are primarily annoying. Some of them are people who will follow you, ask you to follow them, and then if you don't, they unfollow you. No content creator want this, because these people just want your follow. They don't follow you because they enjoy your content.

Other f4f people will follow you and then they won't ask you for a follow. A lot of people will follow these accounts back out of the goodness of their heart. After a while these accounts will unfollow you in the hope that you will forget to unfollow them back. they get a free follower while not having to follow anybody.

So be on the lookout for these accounts. check your follows regularly, and enjoy twitter knowing that you have been enriched by these important facts.

Follow me everywhere

Hello.

Just to let you know, I am on social media other than Blogger. this includes: Twitter, YouTube, Scratch, Roblox, and Twitch.

On Twitter, I post my dumb thoughts about random things. On Youtube, I upload edited videos. On Scratch and Roblox, I share games that I have made. I... really don't do anything on Twitch. Most of these sites I am active on regularly.

(Insert More shameless vehicles here)

Flash Trial over

Hello. My trial is over for Adobe Flash. I hate the Creative Cloud business model. I am not alone, either. Many animator have just gone over to older suites like CS3 through torrenting. They seem to be just as functional as CC and without the awful business model. The subscription has turned many people off of the software. Those who are not have no alternative in sight. This sort of thing could be referred to as a monopoly. I think that goes too far, though.

Flash Animation

Hello once again.

I have been making small attempts at animation and such in adobe flash. I have been trying it primarily due to my trial running out soon. I have recently scraped together enough for a subscription but I would like to keep using it for free. As many others say, "Creative Cloud has done for Creativity what the Creative Cloud has done for Industrial Sewage Management- Absolutely Nothing." But who knows? I may have something to show for my practice eventually! New pictures going up on Twitter soon.

Profile pictures

Hey everyone. I post one blog after another just because that is how I roll.

I have been drawing profile pictures for my friends as flash practice, and WOW it is difficult. I suck at three things when it comes to drawing. 1. Faces, 2. Hands, and 3. Proportions. So this has been going well. It takes a long time, but I guess i need to start somewhere if I want to animate in flash. But until then, I had better get in all the practice I can.
