The iPad is epic win. Maybe I’ll finally answer my massive backlog of emails (sorry everyone who’s emailed me recently!).
Not much else to say that hasn’t been said better elsewhere.
I really started creating digital content once I got my first Mac, a now ancient PowerBook G4 (clocked slower than my current phone, imagine that). I first got into Flash games by creating stopmotion animation, and I got into that because I enjoyed video editing, thanks to in no small part by Apple’s focus on media creation with iLife and FireWire (an utter God-sent during the time of DV cameras).
So here’s to (as The Onion playfully puts it) the last American who knew what the heck he was doing.
…Windows. And Flash?

Need some feedback, guys! No, not about the pirate! Read more »
Don’t try this at home!
(Oh and click the pic for a larger version)
Sorry for the utter lack of updates on World 3 (though that seems to be the norm nowadays, eh?), keep a heads up, though, Ill be posting some new footage sometime tonight or tomorrow
Good stuff, I promise.

I’ve been adding all the engine refinements from ME2D back into FPA. Crazy how much better the game looks with character rotational smoothing. No more jitters, yay!
Fancy Pants Man now has 3 separate run cycles, want to add a whole bunch of different jumps too. I’m nuts. Got a lot of animating ahead of me. Good thing I love animating.

Here’s something that bugs me to no end. I am not Justin Long, you are not John Hodgeman.
Apple uses actors to represent their products, Mircrosoft defines their users by what products they buy. Huge difference there.

So when I’m not doing concept work for World 3, I’ve been playig Super Metroid. Never beat it before, so I figured I should buy it from the Wii VC and do just that. Amazing game. So, I’ve gotten a few emails and such asking about puzzle elements in FPA, nothing overpowering, but what would you guys think of some sort of level or character progression in World 3?

Hey guys, so I’m trying out a new sidebar thingy, something that would allow me to make smaller posts that don’t push down more important posts (like pictures of various pets on my shoulders).
What do you think of the idea? Is the site too thick now? Should I just sell my soul and finally get a twitter to place up here?

@Superanna: actually, no, I don’t hate it (I would so totally buy one if I had the money) and I don’t want it killed. I DO bleave that it’s the future of laptops and I don’t mind it at all, however, at it’s current state I can see why it’s being called a giant iPhone/Touch and at this point in time I kinda have to agree with that statement based on my experience with my Touch and what I’ve seen for the iPad. As dev teams learn to work with the iPad and find more uses for it (the iPhone/Touch got the Mobile Air Mouse, what about a Mobile Air… drawing tool?!?!) then it may be a more viable option for me. That’s all I mean and Brad is awesome so if he likes it then I probably will too… Plus it’s a Apple product so I’ll probably like it anyway, in fact, I like my Touch so much I typed all these posts out on it
I heard a rumor that the iPad doesn’t support flash. Is this true?
If so, I probably won’t be getting one.
Course it doesn’t support Flash. Have you used Flash on a mobile device? It’s teh lawlz.
It’s always funny being at conferences where Adobe’s trying to convince you that Flash on mobile phones is useful in any way. Personally I don’t exactly want to release another Bejeweled, and Flash is way too slow and stupid for anything better. Adobe just needs to buy ScaleForm, bah.
Still, that is one thing my computer has that the iPad doesn’t. I guess this means no fancy pants adventures for the iPad either.
That’s the only thing your computer can do that an iPad can’t? My computer can play Crysis with 7.1 sound, make Flash files, run Final Cut Pro, churn through HD video, run video conferences… oh, and print things.
wow, thats a pretty trixed out computer! I wish MINE could do that!
That’s what happens when you hack a 4890 for a Mac Pro
wowlerskates!
that zoundz almust as gud as mu haxxord WII! OMG!!
*Gasp* You’ve degenerated…
hey, it happens
