Johnny seems to be doing fine :P

Being in a long-term relationship with a live-in girlfriend has many a booty benefit. It's kind of like living at the supermarket. If you're hungry, there is a bunch of food available.

Also, I want a Reg Valentine as well.

Kirk? Will you be my Valentine?

It's hard thinking of visualizations for Newgrounds Radio. I have about seven right now and I can't think of anything else. Any ideas guys?

The ones I've come up with are damn epic though

Ohh, I am alone for Valentine's even on the reg lounge

Citricsquid? Will you join me for a romantic Valentine's night on l4d2? I'm so lonely right now that even Gust would be good company.

I secretly have a huge hard-on for gust

Didn't you have that thing you called a girlfriend or something?

Response to The Flash 'Reg' Lounge 2010-02-15 05:43:11


Valentine's Day is a horribly commercialised event in which companies feel it okay to charge you ten times as much for a single rose, or a box of chocolates or whatever. Anyone who truly celebrates it is an idiot.
...That's why I spent the weekend celebrating the anniversary of my girlfriend and I getting together, which just so happens to be on the 13th. It is a personal choice, and has nothing to do with it being cheaper and easier to find seats in a restaurant or the cinema or whatever.
Not at all.

I spent next to no money considering, which is great. We essentially split the cost of the weekend, including the price of a video game which I later took home. My girlfriend even made me a cake with "NG" iced onto it. It was delicious, but you know that you spend too much time on Newgrounds when that's the only thing your girlfriend can think of putting on your cake.

Shame I missed out on the hot Flash Reg Valentines hookup though; I wouldn't have minded getting together with Starogre if he was around. I think he wanted me to have his babies or something.

Though we didn't last year, this year we decided to try and get eachother the cheesiest gift we could on a £10 budget, and it was quite fun :P On saturday we went to nandos and the cinema (we were going to go somewhere posher to eat, but she really wanted to go to nandos lol and we got cinema in the same amount of money aswell) Then on sunday, we celebrated chinese new years instead of valentines day, and we made a big batch of super delicious brownies on the saturday night.

All you youngins will soon find out that flowers once a month, especially on Valentine's day is the best way to keep your relationship happy. Even if your girlfriend says "I don't need them." Even if you think it's fucking stupid because flowers die, and why not use that money for something else.. ect.. ect... girls don't think that way.

You want hand jobs and blow jobs.
They want flowers.

Fact.

You guys can check out my newspost for more info.

Basically

HDXMike wanted an artist. I went to JohnnyUtah. JohnnyUtah said he'll work with us but he can only do additional art such as backgrounds, platforms, etc because he's busy. Now we need a main artist someone that can do art for all the characters.

Its gonna come out to be pretty cool :)

Well, that's nice. The engine's pretty good too, so you've got quite a bit of potential there.

nothings wrong with it, it's quite fun.

First time I worked with a big name it was like the complete opposite. He gave me a fla of art, said "here's a bunch of art I had laying around, do what you want with it I'm too busy to put much extra work into it". So I had a file of sprites and needed to make a game out of it.

It's actually pretty fun to do that.

Any artists just have a file of sprites they don't know what to do with? Maybe you should pair up with a programmer, hand it over, and let them do what they wish to it.

Heh. Well what me and Utah weree talking about was this.
He told me this

Tell mike to complete the whole game with crappy art and I'll swap it with my art. But he didn't want the game to be to big and stuff. So their were many conditions. So what we did simply was Johnny would do all the art except the animation of characters and stuff like that. Its gonna be quite fun. I've been a big fan of Utah for a while and its great to be working with him/

no harm in asking. I think people just get intimidated sometimes, but i think both programmers and artists get excited to work on projects with potential. SO as an artist you want to provide that spark in the form of a storyboard/spritesets/sketches/whatever that lures the hotshot programmer you want and vice versa, as a programmer you want to provide that engine/concept/whatever to the artist. You just gotta inspire people with your idea. I think people just get lazy and just 'cold-call' artists/programmers just because they want to work with them and not because they actually have a tangible idea. That approach usually leads to a shut door in your face.

Yeah, just like all those times you wanted to work with me but never had any solid ideas to present.

Well sometimes I have an idea that's only really "half-formed" or "quarter-formed", as in there's no real idea there yet but it feels like it could be someone. In that case, just cold-calling an artist and talking about it can really help form the idea up more.

I mean there's 2 real things that turn me off if an artist comes up to me (and its one of those rare times when I'm not busy):

1. "Hey wanna progam a game or something?"

2. "Hey wanna program this game, it'll have 13 levels of 3 minutes 42 seconds each, this is the list of enemies and list of powerups and this is the character sprite, the name of the game is 'blah' and this is the story, and the rest is in this 8 page document, it's being sponsored by hardcoregames for $4000, you'll get $1386"
