For my top favorite, since it's my favorite on my list, I'm choosing gogo happy and smile. If you haven't played it, it's like alien hominid but with a cat and a bunny... and it's a bazillion times harder.

Ahhh, the theft of gogo happy and smile. Memories :)

well, i need some good music for my new game, pm me if you have good ideas, and it must be different rock music types

Does this look like the Audio Portal to you?

lol. This was supposed to be my birthday present for myself yesterday, but thanks to canceling a deal with a sponsor I had to release it today... Anyway, it's my first solo project and game ever and the first big project I've finished in years. I know it isn't much compared to what the average 14 year old NG developers make :), but I'm still happy I finished it. My days of procrastination are over!

It was a stolen flash. Me and a few users over at the abusive review thread had to PM Wade about it. There was a lot of reviews on it frontpage questioning and saying it's stolen, both against the review rules.

Mwmike I mentioned about it being stolen.

Xeptic nice game. I remember you developing that and asking for ideas :D Not sure what score it'll get but it should be at least a 3.25. (It being quite a basic game compared to things up in the 4 area but I voted 4 :) )

Does anyone know if this and this are stolen? I was wondering if its an official Ed, Edd and Eddy thing and this person has stolen them 'cause the graphics look genuine which makes me wonder.

Sorry all for replying so fast but I don't think they are. If you look at the old cartoons then they are subtly different. Does look very similar though.

I'm assuming your last sentence was sarcasm :/

Sorry. I've just had some bad experiences with forums.
Most of the other forums I've been on, judge your experience and n00bishness purely on post count, and only post count. Makes it really hard to get your opinion heard :(
I'm really glad that this forum isn't like that.

Making a Website

As for making a website, I suggest doing whatever you can to make some money (about $50) then get a cheap host + domain. If it's a personal portfolio where it's just your work and maybe a blog, you'll get only maybe a few hundred views a week, so you could set that up for a low price; the internet is quite cheap for us lowlings :D The whole making the web site thing, I suggest you learn php, html and javascript; it's fun and really quite easy. It's also helpful as a flash developer to know those languages.

Yeah, I have learnt some HTML, but I just have no idea where to even get started.
I need to know where the domain hostee website is, if I pay per month/year etc., how to make new pages, how to embed flash... oh man.
Anyway, thanks for the help liaaaam :)

When I posted about this a couple of weeks ago I got no replies. So I'll say it again: if anyone wants to make a website and is confident that it will be able to generate a decent amount of views through any type of means, then get in touch with me. I'm fluent with html, php, mysql and css and I would like to have a website. Web hosting doesn't need to cost more than 4 euros per month.

Oh, I would fucking love that.
I'll PM you about it later. I just need moneyz as I have no job ATM, recently got fired for no reason.
If I make a background, header, footer, buttons etc., would you be able to make it look... you know, good?

Thanks so much Toast.

New Computers

The only time I talk about anything that's computer / flash / gaming related it's on NG or other places on the internet, it's like im a different person irl.
Maybe if I look really hard I'll find a small group of nerds, although french nerds are a very special group of nerds (which i don't consider myself to be a part of). maybe i should just move to england or america.

Whoa, totally different to my school.
I'm kinda in the nerd crowd in my school, while also being friends with other groups.
There are about 15 or so other nerds in year 11, who I regularly chat to about whatever to do with computers and gaming.
COD4, CSS, TF2, SSBB, computer hardware etc.

Anyway, I'll post my new computer specs up Tuesday night.
I'm getting it monday night instead now, because he had loads of homework :(
Apparently, it only has 1gb of RAM though... bad?
And I just got Portal off a friend :)

Here's my current computer specs, for you to laugh at;
AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1700+
1.46GHz, 256 MB of RAM
20 GB HDD

Your website link doesn't work.

Anyway, it says you should have 2 cans max. daily.
One night me and my friend had nine each while playing Mario Kart Wii.
Our hands were shaking so much, we couldn't play properly.
Not as good as alcohol, but still fun and not illegal.

In my second to last year of high school atm.
I fucking hate it. I suck at maths, and because of SACE, I have to quit maths to make room for design.
Most of my reports this term were graded on ONE test, and its usually the test I didn't study for >:(
Year 10 rules though. So easy.

In trying to think of a game idea I might like to do, I decided to look at some of my favorite flash games, and since I'm an idiot and don't put my favorite games on my favorite games list here on ng, I really only have one that I really like.

Fancy Pants adventure 2.
First one was horrible, but I loved the second one.
It's so quirky and crazy and original and FUCKING AWESOME! Its just its own game if you know what I mean.

Art Major
Yep. I'm starting my Major Artwork this week, and its due near the end of next term. My MAJOR artwork.
Of course, everyone's still in the research stage still, but I just don't even know what I'm going to do.
I've done some concpets which look pretty cool, but I want something that totally shows off my style.
I was thinking of doing some kinda street art/ grafitti/ surrealism kinda thing.
Does anyone know of the Australian clothing brand Mambo? They used to do some REALLY cool designs, I'd love to do something like that.

Any help appreciated!

Nah, the game just subtracts 400 points from your score. It lags like a mofo apparently, I'll see if I can fix that...

Food For The Soul

Which is Cryzabey's game with me, and he said he should be finishing up the coding tommorow. Then we're basically read to submit ;)

i fucking love this game !!

i found it by clicking my own mochi ad lmao. i wish there were more flash games like this out there. it's just so fun to play that i could spend hours on it

Blackfang: When you submit I'll definitely have a look at it.

Toxic: Which website link?!?

Toast: Nice find. Very fun :D

Red Bull is the worldwide market leader, so I know about it, I don't buy it much, but that's because you can get higher quality drinks like rush for half the price. V is great, maybe a bit too fruity for me, I prefer the usual flavors than the extra sweet ones. I've never heard of red eye.

I used to drink a lot of red rooster. They had a redesign on the logo recently. I preferred the old logo, the new one looks like it's trying (and failing) to look futuristic.

I used to drink a drink from a brand called euroshopper, it didn't taste as good as much drinks but it costed only 35P.

I drink rockstar energy a lot. It's fruity but the size of the can is good.

I drink relentless. I've been drinking this for a while, now they're one of the biggest brands in it. They've made quite a few variations, like inferno, an orangeade flavoured energy drink and Juiced, half juice, I've never tasted this before.

I've drunk a lot more, these are just a few I've remembered. My local shops get new brands in regularly and to do so they need to stop selling other brands. I need to go to the other side of my town to get rush now but it's worth it.

That's the end of that wall of text.

We all gotta be super 1337 obviously.

gosh.

We could throw a sexy reg lounge party?

Just a suggestion.

YES!

I will provide the sexy reg lounge penicorn rides! its 10$ a ride plus tax, yay!

You can't not provide tax. We should be raking it in. One question, where will we steal the penicorns from?

We must find someone who owns Spore to make the Penicorns for us!

Omg.. I'm on my old laptop atm, it's so fucking slow it's unbelievable.

256mb of RAM, built in SiS (read: shit, is shit) graphics card, 60gb hdd.. xp though D: It took over 2 minutes for Firefox to load up, whereas on my new laptop it takes about 2 seconds for Chrome to open lol.

Also: I will never drink sambuca again, fuck.

1GB isn't a lot. Your processor is up to some extent dependant on your RAM, so if you only have 1GB it probably means your processor isn't extremely powerful. If your processor IS good, however, then I suggest getting 2GB RAM.

Xeptic game
had some problems but i still gave it 5

That's the tradeoff with Nitrome. They have sickeningly good artists, but are still getting the hang of programming. The AI algorithms in their Worms game can come to a 1-2 fps crawl even on a good computer. Overall, though, an incredible game designer.

Yea it turns out it was actually an ad on miniclips or something, because I loaded it on their site and it played great, and I loaded it on miniclips again and it played great again. In there latest game the load times for the levels are ridiculous, 10-20 seconds, which is a really long time, most games and movies don't load that long for me, let alone levels.

The graphics are good, true, but that's not even what I care most about. The thing about their games, especially final ninja (in my opinion) are extremely fun to play. I could go on for hours just swinging from one platform to another on the grappling hook while trying to avoid the lights by stealthing. It runs very smooth on my computer btw, no problems what-so-ever except one little glitch i get. when i try to slide down on a wall while holding W, it bugs for me and won't let me jump to the other side.

i wish i had the capacity to make games like that. i guess i could code everything in that game pretty easily, except perhaps the way the grappling hook folds when it collides with a platform. there's nothing really complicated about it, even the enemy AI couldn't be more basic. When put together though, it's really neat and polished up.
