Third Time's the Charm

What a Summer, yet another already come and gone.

I wasn't NEARLY as productive as I wanted to be this season, but what I -did- get accomplished I'm very proud of. I'm glad I got my writing spark rekindled, had a ton of fun with character designing, did a few storyboards and a just a tad of animation. Nothing fully completed, sadly, but PLENTY in the works.

The game I'm working on for Newgrounds' Power of Three Event definitely ain't comin' out at its appropriate time, but Richie and I refuse to give up. We'll most likely be continuing production on it over the Fall in bits and pieces because we think it's a great concept that shouldn't simply be abandoned. I think it'll be something that will really surpise people, especially from the standpoint of a flash game. Meanwhile I've also started production on a BIG new project involving some close and INCREDIBLY talented friends. I'm actually not sure which project will finish and release first, but both are -very- worth looking forward to.

The Summer's been fun AND draining. I've made new friends, lost a few, revived friendships and relations with many people that I'm very grateful and appreciative for. There's been some sickness issues at home between my getting my first cold in a long while, not to mention my mom's condition, but she'll be fine thankfully. Also Comic-con was still amazing. I think the filthy laziness bug will be sprayed off once school starts in a few days. I'm just about to move back to my dorm in NYC and despite some small concerns, I've gotta damn good schedule of classes this year. I'm also glad to have a couple 'o Mikes around the area to hang with, eat with and watch ridiculous amounts of stupid animated movies with.

I've got high hopes for the future and plan on goin' full-throttle with this next year of school at SVA, hopefully doing even better than last year and the year before it. Wish me luck!

Wow, that is pretty busy. You make me feel like such a lazy ass.

I'll keep your word on the Po3 game. A combo with Richie probably won't fail to please me.

Hey, I finally got all my computer stuff up and running. I'm able to work on the game again. I've maxed out my credit hours tho, so I have a bunch of school work to do as well :/ Once I finish my RE piece I wont be taking on another project till the game is complete.

tapirtoon 2009-09-12 05:05:42

How long does Comic-Con last?

bladedoodle 2009-09-14 20:03:46

Hey Kirb! the big 100th flash is coming up aye? cant wait! oh and hope you have a rocking day!

dudegiga 2009-09-15 08:06:39

Glad you're back Chris, hope you enjoyed comic-con. Btw, im concerned about some things.1- When are you going to finish the parody rangers for good,
2-why did you decided to cancel season 4 of TOME (Man that was epic and for the records, i belive its the longest series on newgronds, im not joking)3- I'd really love to see a collab of my 4 favorite flash artist of newgrounds, which is YOU of course, Rina-chan, tomamoto, and (rolling drums......) egoraptor! damn i only wish i could see such a thing
well, i wish you good luck at school and one more thing, i have alwayswondered if there wasn't something between you and rina-chan, cause you've been working together on a lot of flash during the past years. i don't wanna start something here, don't misunderstand me, im just wondering.
