I do not like to use my real name on the internet. At all. Except for facebook, but lets not go there shall we?<\/p>\n <p>So, about me.<\/p>\n <p>Generally I suck.<\/p>\n <p>Over the last 10 years or so, I have dabbled in several areas of game design, pixel art, and some video media.<\/p>\n <p>I have created only, <span style=\"text-decoration: line-through\">4 <\/span>, oops, 2 downloadable games.\u00a0 One of which is a demo and the other is a sucky 2d snowboarding sim. I also have at least 4\/5 failed\/uncompleted announced projects. I have over 15 other projects written down on paper not yet even started on. When I do start a game, I want to do everything. Music, art, code, all done by me. That&#8217;s what indie means doesn&#8217;t it? So 10 years*15 ideas doesn&#8217;t sound like a good completion track does it? So, just exactly what do I hope to accomplish by entering this contest? Well, hopefully to pull something off. Like, an arm, a leg, or some hair maybe. Wait, I still need that. (Okay, I&#8217;m not that old, only, uh, 27).<\/p>\n <p>All kidding aside. I hopefully want to accompolish getting an idea at least out there in something big. If I can do that, then I&#8217;ll know whether or not my philosophy is accepted and I should continue to try to make games. That being said, I hope to do something unique for this competion. Or else go out in a blazing ball of fire trying to do so.<\/p>\n <p>Cheers all!<\/p>\n <p>(did I mention this is only my second mainstream competition entry? the first was a failed attempt to win a flash executable for mmf2 because I thought the due date was later. my other two competition entries were for holidays so they don&#8217;t count.)<\/p>\n <p>(and to admins, if this isn&#8217;t allowed, delete as necessary)<\/p>","time":"April 21st, 2010 11:39 pm","title":"Hello!"}
