I have been playing a metric fuckton of Dreams™ for the past month or so. It's a fun game making tool on the PS4 made by the same guys who created LittleBigPlanet. I made a playable object of Vinny Vinesause and he's played it once on nearly every one of his Dreams streams. And I even put together a fun little tech demo for Dreams's Wild West Community Jam last. It didn't get many thumbs up but I'm just glad that I actually created something. Lord knows I spent 5~6 years tooling around in LBP and all I have to show for it are a few cutscenes and a profile full of flamewars.

Anyways working in Dreams inspired me to give proper game development another try. I've been screwing around in a bunch of idiot-proof game dev software but I just don't have the patience for anything more obtuse than RPG Maker. Whatever I do I just wanna get back into the swing of things. Below are a bunch of sprites I made recently. (Actually only two of them I made recently. The other ones were made back in Autumn and I just forgot to upload them huehuehueheuhe)

BONUS - WIPs

And it only took a month short of 11 years.

I made a character selection screen containing a bunch of my friends' OCs for Pixel Day. I spent a good 3 days putting it together and my Surface 3 is ready to die from the overuse.

Make sure to vote, not just on my piece, but on as many pixel art pieces as you can find today!

I'm looking to add to my portfolio so I'm opening up a queue for free commissions. I specialize in limited palette character pixel art rangnging between a 64x64px & 128x128px resolution. I usually start working on a piece as soon as the requester asks. While there isn't anything specific that I'll always say no to, I will deny any individual request that I see unfit to draw.

-Send me a private message here or any of the websites listed in my profile

-Be thorough. Show me reference photos and suggest poses or else I'll end up doing some boring neutral poses.

Until I have a decently sized portfolio or a business card or something I'll use this news post to showcase some of my work.

2016 - 2017 (Most of my attention was focused on making a fangame based on /v/ fakemon during that time. It didn't happen. lole)

This is where I should say some uplifting crap about how we're welcoming with open arms and stuff, right?

Uhhh... 

I don't know man, we're all pretty chill here. I'm always looking for artists to recommend to the art portal. PM me if you're an aspiring artist looking to be scouted. 

(if you're here because I sent you a random friend request, it's because we're mutuals on some other form of social networking. I'm not a porn bot.)

Goddamn

I'm really liking these layout changes. I'll always miss the 2007 layout, but I'm really digging this.

I've been accessing newgrounds for the past few months by phone almost exclusively. So I have no idea when these page updates even went live. I gotta say, I'm not a huge fan of it, but it looks good enough on mobile. 

Yesterday marked the ten year anniversary of the day I made my Newgrounds account and I totally forgot. Nice.

Looks like they're rolling out those UI changes onto more parts of the site. I like it, but I'll miss the faint paint splotches and glowing "Everything by Everyone" text burned onto some assets. Those little textures gave the site a lot of personality. Hopefully Tom (or whomever is doing the UI) replaces it with something just as subtle when the entire site's finished.
