The Mighty Atom

Kotaku's article inspired me to post about one of my favorite heroes:

Astro Boy's sharp insights about human nature combined with his intellect, power, and a general sense of discrimination about his uniqueness make for a compelling show. Black and white somehow seems more fitting, though I may feel that way because I saw the black and white version first.

Doing an IP crossover justice is a formidable design challenge, but a worthwhile one. The cost of failure is only a mediocre work. I hope this game meets its mark!

Wanted: Artist who can explain sky art.

Basically, skies, cities, and terrain represent a huge part of the setting for a game about affecting a society. I'm looking for anyone who can explain how to make a 3D game version of the following environment. (Basically its a "sky box" question that has a lot to do with palette.)

Sergei Rachmaninoff

I don't really have a game this works with, but I want to keep the link:

Bad Ass Pianist Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto no 2 Op. 18 Moderato!

'Nuff Said.

WHO DO YOU THINK I AM???

In case you never met me, or didn't take the time to get to know me, I'll let you know that my favorite thing of all time is Gurren Lagann:

Why do I love Gurren Lagann? Because it was the first time I saw someone put my spirit into a work of fiction. When faced with the impossible task, the infinitely powerful force, the enemy that lords over everyone like a king telling us what our limitations are, and asked if I would give up the only response is:

WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM?!?!

Now I have some work to do... I may not be posting for a bit, but I think it will be worth it!

FIGHT ON - IGF 2010

I cannot stress how important it is to get your work showcased outside of the USC community. The IGF is the best way.

FIGHT ON!

(Also, I have chosen the shirtless man version of the IGF logo due to comical value. Sorry Erik!)
