That took me all night.

I uploaded nearly every Flash animation/project I have ever touched. Ones I didn't include are certain ones I feel don't fit in for various reasons, but this list is the most comprehensive you'll ever see. There are A LOT of unfinished projects, some are nearly finished, some are hardly even started, but they are still a part of


me.


There are also many embarrassingly lame and unfunny attempts, which I still added, because I felt I needed to have them shown to anyone who has any interest (in the future when I become famous!).

You can navigate through the categories in a menu on the right-side of this blog under "Animography", a most pretentious title.

RECENT

It was only up until mid-2007 I bought myself a digital Wacom tablet. Even though it's a cheap one, it's still 10,000,000 times better than drawing with a mouse. This section will be expanding whenever I bring myself to complete something. The twelve-second Christmas animation itself took me about 2 weeks to complete. On top of that I now have an interest in making my own music which adds to the pain and diminishing of my soul even further. One can only think about the future though, and I really want to make this a major part of what I want to do with my life.

SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED
Merry xmas (Made for a collaboration on TFS. It's the first time one of my flash's has made it to the front page, and the only one I actually think is worthy of being a part of the front page, despite only being 12 seconds long) 325k

GAMES/INTERACTIVE
This is a mix of ones I drew with a mouse and ones I drew with a tablet. I mixed them all together because I feel the art isn't as important as the actionscripting. I'm still learning actionscript, although I seem to get things done using the "if" statement pretty well.

MOUSE DRAWN ERA

In late 2004 and 2005 I went through many life changes/improvements. Firstly I changed from "Archfoe" to "Archfriend" (a convenient move because I later found out my old high-school friend from New Zealand stole my Archfoe name for Hotmail and probably Yahoo!, which marginally annoyed me when I tried to register it). Secondly I started really getting into heavy metal (thanks to Bathory) and thirdly I started seriously thinking about drawing better. Unfortunately I was still drawing with a mouse, which made productivity a lot slower. Finally, a significant change was my experimentation in 24fps, mostly ending in failures, but still looking cooler than 12fps.

SPECIAL SERIES OF FAILURES

GHETTOPANTS (a.k.a. "GUM")
This was a failed collaboration on The Friend Society forums. It fell due to lack of interest and powertripping "organizers" who drove people away from it. It had a large story to it which I thought was very imaginative though. I'd like to redo the whole thing myself one day. This also left a mark on me as I now set the default dimensions to every new Flash project as 666x360.

ANCIENT

I wanted to separate these because they date back to an early stage of my Flash animating exploration (2004 and back, when I was still known as "Archfoe") and so therefore they are noticeably really crap and stupid. There is a lot of failure here in terms of art, but I had some interesting story ideas which I can look back on for meta-inspiration.

GIF ANIMATIONS AND RELATED

Before I started using Flash I was making GIF animations in Animation Shop 3 (which I previously used to edit sprites ripped from other games). Not all my GIF animations are here, just significant ones that eventually lead to installing Flash. The first thing I did in Flash was try to make "Dude vs Dood 4" but then I ended up making that a GIF animation. Then I made "Dude vs Dood 5" (as a GIF) but it was too big to run in a browser smoothly so I imported it into Flash. Then I tried other things in Flash like Jonny Action, but failed miserably. My first full Flash animation was "Meaning Less 1" inspired by certain animutations and other inspiration waves that came from places only I shall ever know.

My first GIF animation ever was the sword-boy one in retaliation to my disgust over that one GIF with some boy with a sword killing a bunch of cute high school girls. My interest in animating peaked from there.

IT IS A GAME (test version)

PANDABOY vs PLANET RAPER

CONTROLS:
Arrow keys left/right = run
down = crouch
up = jump
Numpad 0 = counter-jump (when Pandaboy is in contact with a falling rock)
Numpad . (dot) = attack (use with direction keys)

ALTERNATIVE CONTROLS:
w,a,s,d = arrows
j = counter-jump
k = attack


HOW TO PLAY (The in-game "How to play" is unfinished).

The objective of the game is to "counter-jump" the falling rocks and keep going higher and higher until you see the Planet Raper, who is constantly descending to rape the Earth (which means the game is over). Be aware that coming in contact with the Planet Raper will severely damage you. The orange bar in the bottom-left of the screen is your health, while the red bar is the enemy's health. Defeat the Planet Raper by attacking it every opportunity you get! After its health is depleted you will have to perform a finishing-move, to do this you have to press the correct direction key sequence before the time runs out (pressing the wrong direction will speed up the time). GOOD LUCK!


HINTS

This can be a really hard game at times so keep these tips in mind:
* I don't know why but it's usually easier to control if you're not always holding down the "up" key.
* This game is specially coded so you can't hold down the keys to win, the intended idea is to press the key at the exact moment. Pressing the keys repeatedly ("mashing") also works, which I don't mind.
* You can only attack once per every jump, but you can attack once after (and even cancel) every new counter-jump, and you can cancel attacks with counter-jumps (you can't cancel a counter-jump with another counter-jump). So it is possible to do a repetitive sequence like counter, attack, counter, attack, etc.
* Take advantage of my cartoony physics! Attacking in the air will pause your falling momentarily, but it can also destroy a rock you might want to counter-jump on so do it carefully.

* One exploitable glitch is taking advantage of Flash's shitty hit-test programming, so you don't have to hit the Planet Raper directly, but you can attack its "bounding box" and it will still do damage.
* While you are on the ground you can attack much more repetitively by holding down the attack key, so if you manage to weaken the Planet Raper in the air by about 60% you can wait until it comes down close enough to rapidly hit it.
* The finishing sequence goes like this: adwdaswasadwdsad (not much thought went into this sequence).


RANT

Personally I think this looks too much like a typical Flash game. If anything I'd probably want to start this again using C++ with pixel sprites. I want to change the look of the falling rocks but I haven't decided what to change them into yet. I think the Planet Raper needs a simpler redesign. Some of the physics are really terrible, I wanted "cartoony" but this is borderline "glitchy". I wanted Pandaboy to take damage if he falls down from a really high place (which he does fyi) but he somehow gains so much resistence it's like he has an invisible parachute, yet if I make him fall down too fast then it won't be "cartoony" anymore it would be "brutal gravity". The ending is supposed to be temporary, but I like the way it looks. Originally it's supposed to do "zoom-outs" instead of flashing white, but I'll do that in the final version if I ever get around to it (yeah right). I think the splash screen needs anatomy corrections.

There is an easter-egg stage in this game, it's pretty silly and I could have fixed it but I didn't because I like it. You access it by right-clicking and selecting Play. you can find a couple things I didn't include in the final game like running up a wall (hold up when you counter-jump at the surface of the wall) and if you hit the big moving hammering thing you get the "bad-hit" animation that stuns you a little bit. These were intended for the actual game that this was supposed to be. Kill the small angry circle-face to get out of it.

Any comments/suggestions/glitch-notes is appreciated!

I made this. Use it freely:

Motion Tweening madness!

The art of "Motion tweening" is a much-disputed technique used in Flash (Adobe or Macromedia) that can make an object move from point-A to point-B. EXAMPLE:


But there are other aspects of the motion tween. You can, for example, rotate:


As well as other tricks like "ease" which is too complicated for me.

^I don't know why that marqueemotion tween keeps stuffing up.

Music

Music is not just a truck you can dump your stuff into. Music is a series of tubes...
