End of an Era

The decade that brought us the GameCube, Xbox, PS2, and GameBoy Advance has come to an end.
If you want to get technical the N64 and the PS1 were laid to rest in this decade too.
The SNES is fixing to be the next NES, aka the console that “retro gamer” wannabes (like myself with the NES) will play, if it hasn’t become it already.

Nintendo Community FanGame Convention Booth

The Nintendo Community Fangame Convention (NCFC) is an online amateur game convention. Game creators from various websites gather in a temporary community to share their games, discuss game design, and interface with other game making communities.

Kind of like SAGE, but Nintendo themed! I decided to work on Mario’s Time Machine DX and submit it but school and work and friends prevented me from working on it at all.
Booths linked off-site from NCFC, So I redid the FanGames pages a bit and added a new demo for SMRPG LotFP, as well as a video showing off Mario’s Time Machine DX. Enjoy!

DragonBall Z’s Music

For those of us who grew up with DBZ on Toonami, we remember it’s music, a mix of techno and hard rock intensifying with the suspense and action. But for those of us who lived or visited outside the US and watched it there saw and heard a different DBZ. Read the rest of this entry »

Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea

Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea

Ever since I stumbled upon his 1989 film, “Kiki’s Delivery Service”, on television many years ago, Hayao Miyazaki has been a favorite director of mine. At the time I didn’t really understand what it was or where it came from, but I did recognize that what I was seeing was something truly extraordinary. Gorgeous animation with a peaceful, charming setting whose thoughtful serenity poised itself as a stark contrast to anything I had ever seen in an animated movie before. Now Disney has brought over Miyazaki’s latest film, “Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea” (or just “Ponyo”), for Western audiences to enjoy.

DragonBall Evolution

Written on April 12, 2009. I seem to have a more negative view as I think back to it.


Mixture of feelings.

Right as the opening narrative closed (giving a history of Piccolo) some guy behind us said “They Fucked it up already!”.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Five Pendants- History

6 years ago, inspired by the Mario Quest games over at MFGG, I began a fangame of my own following the style. For reasons that remain unknown today the file became corrupted and I had to stop my work on it. I have almost no memory of the first predecessor to LotFP except that Mario faces trouble in a saloon, and instead of pendants, they were stars, directly copying SMRPG.

FanGames

Some people express their love for a famous series with fanart or fanfiction. I do it in fangames, that way others can directly experience it. That and I always wanted to be a game designer as a child, and this is as close as I’ll ever get!

The FanGames section has been updated to include Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Five Pendants. The others are next on my to-do list.
