So, I wound up doing a few random doodles during the slower stretches of work today. The highlights include rough conceptual stuff about that hockey-themed fighting game idea I've mentioned before, a little thing of Nekketsu-style soccer, and a quick-ass Replay Value comic inspired by Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy. Even though we have a copy I ( Read more... )

For some reason, the dream I had last night was basically like watching an anime about ice hockey. It was neat. It was kind of like what Ike! Ike! Nekketsu Hockey-bu would be if it had been an anime series.

It's been on my mind all day and I kind of want to write a comic like that now.

I think I'm just about finished with Burning Fight. As far as I know, there's only one thing left to do, and that's the staff roll for the endings. I think the label is as close to final as I'll want it to be. Okay, there are little things I keep wanting to touch up on it, but those are mostly when I look at the large version. In reduced form ( ( Read more... )

Wow, it's been almost 20 years since River City Ransom came out.

Today I spent probably at least 4 or 5 hours doing some work on the label for my next custom made NES game, Burning Fight. I got my scanner working, so I was able to work off of some sketches instead of having to completely freehand everything. It's not quite finished yet, but so far it looks something like this:

From myaurasmiles: What upcoming video game are you most excited about and why? Try to convince me to want it! :D

Even though I don't own a DS myself yet, I'm probably most excited about Super Dodgeball Brawlers right now. The thing is, though, I'm not really sure how to elaborate on why I'm looking so forward to it beyond, "EEE! NEW KUNIO GAME ( Read more... )

Today, I finally received a game that I've wanted since the early 90s. It's in a different form than what I had originally seen, but I still have it. I now have a cart of what was supposed to have become Crash N The Boys: Ice Challenge, but is instead a hack of mine, Ice Challenge: Multi-Sport Melee, thanks to this guySo, basically, I can now ( Read more... )

I've been pretty busy coming up with teams and logos for my soccer game (the working title is Soccer Challenge, but that might be the final for lack of anything else), and I feel like sharing them.

( Cut for width )

Since I'm running low on things to do to Ice Challenge, I decided to go ahead and try to get a slightly more formal (but still basic) start on what will likely wind up as my next main Nosuch project: converting Nekketsu Kakutou Densetsu into an IFWA game. I have a feeling this one is going to drive me insane by the time I'm done with it, though ( Read more... )

(heh, that title's probably only going to make sense to xshiroxI'm pretty proud of myself. I actually, for the first time ever, figured out how to do some stat hacking in a ROM without looking at anybody else's notes. Go me. Maybe I'll even figure out the music data for one of these games some day, too. ...well, maybe not, but still, this is big for ( Read more... )
