I came across this music video and had no idea what I was watch­ing. The range of cul­tural ref­er­ences both in style and con­tent was so broad and wild it was indes­crib­able, and so very deli­cious.  more ›

Well, Super­broth­ers: Sword & Swor­cery EP is out and cries of joy are doing the rounds on twit­ter. This is def­in­itely some­thing I want to exper­i­ence first hand if I have an i device around. Until then.

Whoa what. I can’t believe the guys at Mecha Fetus were behind this! Man that’s a really awe­some com­bin­a­tion, wish I had a 360 around.

Aaand in other news, my game is slowly com­ing together. Will write more about it soon.

Some­times I pause to remem­ber how crazy

Remem­ber a dec­ade back when Flash was the new toy and every site had some kind of gim­micky Flash thingy? Unre­spons­ive menus, huge splash screens, wonky little anim­a­tions and, best of all, the “Get Flash Player” but­tons. Holy cow remem­ber those?

Yeah well, obvi­ously Flash is every­where now. If you were to turn off the plu­gin, there’d be alot of sites miss­ing half their con­tent (though many would be ads). But even now when I think about Flash, there’s still a tiny voice snick­er­ing in the back of my head. And yet here are two Flash thingies I made for my course.

So I got a shiny new 23″ widescreen a week ago to replace my five year old 19″ ViewSonic, which by then had developed a yel­low­ish hue and become hor­ribly dim and fuzzy. God knows how I was doing illus­tra­tions on it. It took me a few days to get used to the massive amounts of extra space on both sides, as I’ve never used wid­screens apart from gam­ing at net cafes. This lead to some­thing unex­pec­ted when I revis­ited the site. What was ori­gin­ally an adequate left aligned design became this strangely unbal­anced pres­ence that seemed to pur­pose­fully avoid my view and shuffle to the corner of my vis­ion. I was quickly reminded about those left aligned vs centered lay­out debates I’ve read dur­ing the years I spent using 4:3 mon­it­ors, which I thought were largely irre­levent and dic­tated by per­sonal pref­er­ences. How wrong I was.

Any­way, I decided I should go cen­ter as well. So there. Do your eyes feel bet­ter now? Mine sure does.
