The last time I actually released a significant solo project for Newgrounds was in 2013. I still want to contribute something newer at some point, but I keep not remembering ideas and not coming up with ideas that actually fit within my skill range.

Like, sure, I could write plenty of new concepts for what I animate next, but I wouldn't actually be able to animate most of them. My funniest brainwaves for Newgrounds aren't simple enough.

Last time I failed at this was at least 2 years ago, when I tried to animate an ambitiously atmospheric and complex visualization for a Minecraft Volume track, and ultimately gave up. Actually, what finally killed it off was really the realization that Newgrounds would copyright remove it, as there was no way the animation would actually be itself if I used any other music. It had flowing water, leaves rustling on an upset branch, and a lot of camera panning planned out for it - things I didn't actually know how pull off.

But yeah, I know that .swf is not the predominant file format for these anymore. I want to use Flash but unfortunately, you can't bring that stainless vector-based image quality to people now.

Beyond that... maybe I just need to study the art form.

But then, misclicking while looking for a unicode character to copy and paste, I fucking lost it all. Anyway, look at this two-parter screenshot if it grabs your eye.

It's called Castle Prot.

And I'm pretty sure I'm days away from all of the critical physics working.

I make these bricky, unfriendly terrains whenever I'm feeling inspired by hacked Mario. Sometimes I want to play a tight platformer with sweet decor, but I ran out a while ago so now I just try to make them.

So are two other games.

Now, it's time for me to develop a regular platformer.

In less than 92 hours of work, too...

UPDATE:
Fuck.

(Stylish for Chrome is being non-responsive...)

Old screenshot: the AABB is currently broken again.

Fuck.

As the last post said: no more Facebook. I'm off using it altogether, and don't even have the Messenger app. My FB account should be in its final stage of deletion automatically in 12 days.

This leaves me with lots of room for making changes. Picture Book Fiends (the "meme" page for celebrating old school picture books) is out of my hands, and I'm not running around in circles after political news, so I've got more time to do other things.

I have 26 projects to finish.
I've already written them down, but now I need to write some more and revise even further, because priorities need to be made if I am to survive this crap. I'm hoping to return to Newgrounds patronage, with animations and art, but I need to see where that fits on the sorting algorithm of what things I should get out of the way first - before I swamp myself with another workload that's planned out wrong and that I can't handle. The one that's bothering me the most is The Mouse Initiative, so I should get back to writing that and conclude the damn thing already. I also need to write my actual stories, like Crimson Room which is not on The Internet but is a psychedelic short story in Wordpad.
