I dunno what to post about

I could ramble on about my sister's friend coming here for the first time, and hanging with her and my sister a few times. I could also talk about going laser tagging for the first time this Friday.
There's also a plan based around that post about my flash game making that I could post about. Or I could just complain about homework and Art and stuff.

Buuuuuuut I think I'll take the high road and go get hit by a train.

(Arrow keys to move)
(Also here's the really annoying background song)



Also I fixed up the movies page a bit. *NOW HAS RATINGS~* Go check it out! ...if you're bored enough...

ok so

An Update on the Ric-Olzow Character Scene


inb4 zero comments because its about my flash work :D

Anyway, if you're interested at all, I've recently kicked up yet another wave of flash interest, and have been messing with codes and reading up on actionscripting and tutorials galore and blah blah blah and it has been tough, BUT

I HAVE MADE THIS GAME.
(Also you just lost the Game :D)

A few things you should know about it:
-Yes I made it so you can't actually reach the goal.Trololololol. Trust me though, you actually can. (Right click -> Play)

-The coding is fine. It's not golden, but it certainly works.
HOWEVER, If I were to make a full game with this code, my abilities with it would be EXTREMELY LIMITED. I have tried adding code to it (BUT MY KNOWLEDGE IS ALSO EXTREMELY LIMITED AND TUTORIALS HAVE NOT HELPED), but there are only certain things I can do without errors popping up.

-Also FYI the character moves within the frame, not the frame moving to the character.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SO, These are my limitations:

-I can only make 1 (one) land-able platform per stage. I can't figure out how to make a second one without both not working and canceling each other out. >:(

-I dunno how to make the character face different directions with the code I have (I checked a tutorial which offered the idea of making the background move to the character, though personally I dunno if I wanna do it that way, it will complicate things; or if I even can make that work with the code I have)

-Same goes for jumping animation for the character

-I can add stuff that 'kills' you, But I dunno how to make them 'kill-able', They would be avoid-only enemies and because of the coding, they have a box around them which the character (who also has a box around him) reacts to. Therefore, you don't actually have to touch the enemy to die from it, just the imaginary box around it. sucks I know, dunno how to fix it.

-also making said enemies move would be limited to a pattern of movement, though I suppose that's not really a limitation (unless you count boss fights, where random movement is key to making the boss harder and therefore funner for the player)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other than these above, I can't think of anything else at the moment that I've been stuck on, other than trying to figure out: If I were to actually make this game, what would it be about? So far I've come up with a game about Amy wanting riccy to come see her because she has an important message to tell him (In person she couldnt send it by mail or messanger pigeon), so riccy must travel across the land (♫ Searching far and wide...♫), and defeat anyone who opposes him (they will be sent by Amy).

However, if I were to use that, how to connect it to my previous work? and should I even? I have yet to actually make the jenny's quiz idea, which I could use to set up for this game. I dunno though, lots of plans but as usual, ROADBLOCK.

Also if you're wondering, '???' is a page. Just a page. Check it out if you're curious. Also the link on it is the 'Ric-Olzow' Logo I'm thinking of using for my newest flash games (that is, if I can sort this all out and make some.) So yeah now you know! :D

Also yes I'm also planning on making flash movies (that will find their way on youtube as well) I'm just more into making video games at moment :P



You are now aware that Pj's blog has nothing to do with Flash Animation Production, when it's supposed to, and this blog does, when it's not supposed to.

THE TRUTH ABOUT RIC OLZOW


DUDE ITS TOTALLY TRUE

I DIDN'T WANT TO TELL YOU GUYS BECAUSE YOU'D BE ALL LIKE

DOUBTING ME AND STUFF

LIKE ALWAYS

BUT I KNOW YOU GUYS ONLY DO THAT AS A JOKE

HAHA

U GUYS AREN'T SERIOUS ABOUT ME BEING A LOSER

LOL RIGHT?



WHY DID EVERYONE SUDDENLY GO SILENT

Ok. He's gone.


Also Trixie is now emo :(

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

hey guess what swearing alert ok i warned you

FIRST OF ALL, It's nearing that time of year again.

That's right, Valentine's Day! I'm stupidly sad about not having a girlfriend to share it with, and I don't know why. It's probably me falling in to the holiday propaganda that in order to enjoy valentine's day, you need a loving girlfriend. It probably doesn't help that I'll be at school that day, which is really the only reason why I care. High School turns that day into 'LOOK AT ME I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND HAHA YOU ARE SINGLE YOU ARE JEALOUS' day. HALLWAYS, HALLWAYS EVERYWHERE, FILLED WITH PUBLIC DISPLAYS OF AFFECTION ALL DAY. It's going to suck.

SECONDLY, Bandit has taken his last bite of human flesh.

I don't know if I mentioned it in previous posts, but basically since he has done it so many times, a 'one more bite and that's it' threat had been set. As you might've guessed, today he tested that threat, and now plans are being put underway to have him put down.

I'll miss that fat brick of lard covered in fur with a hot bum.

There is no set date of execution at this point It's set for Saturday, February 12th, 2011. I'll keep y'all updated.

FINALLY, I've still been at home, sick. HOPEFULLY GOING TO SCHOOL TOMORROW (?)

Recovery

TRANSCRIPT CRISIS OVER. I mailed it today :D

In other news, I'm sick. (Even more than usual) Starting Saturday I got chills, then headache and fever and sniffling and aching and everything you'd expect from a flu. Luckily, that everything doesn't include losing my breakfast, but it has destroyed my appetite, and has kept me away from school today thus far. I probably won't go tomorrow either. I actually want to, but my mom doesn't a)want me to get worse and b)like the idea of me spreading my flu to everyone else. (she's clearly not as cynical as me :D)

If you don't care about either of the things above then here's a picture of an adorable kitten go have a nice day or something

Wendy's, Post-June Plan, Valentines day, and the February Transcript Crisis

So I finally tried Wendy's today. It wasn't anything special but it wasn't half bad either.

As well, since I spilled the beans to Snowfire already, I figure I should go ahead and announce it:

The Post-June Plan:

There is one of two plans that will happen.

1: -I get my transcript in.
-The U of M accepts me and I go to live with my uncle back in the other city.
-???
-PROFIT!
2. -I get rejected from the U of M, stay here and find work at wherever, and start saving up funds.
-Depending on the situation of why U of M rejected me, depends on where I'd go after the 1 year period. (I presume I'd try for some college at least)
- ???
-PROFIT!

On another note, I have yet to mail my transcript and actually its my fault because I was depending on my mom helping me for it. She keeps delaying it because she doesn't actually want me to go so now I've reached a state of panic similar to the one in December. That being said, the early admission deadline is the 15th, however my time is quickly running out and DAMMIT I REALLY NEED TO GET THAT THING MAILED.

Also valentine's day is coming up soon and well I'm one of those people who don't like the holiday because of how it makes me so manually aware of my awkwardness and singularity. Be prepared for Valentines Day: PTE style.



Actually speaking of love and relationships and boring stuff like that, I knew a guy who was one of those jealous boyfriend types, and he hated my guts because I was friends with his girlfriend.
I hated him too.
Also they broke up some time later.
I never want to be the jealous type.
Because Jealousy is for fa- OHOHOHOIDIDN'TACTUALLYSAYITSNOWFIRE

FINALLY

Here's what Semester 2's lookin' like:

Math Applied:
It's like math pure, without the pure. Basically I now truly see how much of a difference between pure and applied exists. Math pure began with transformations, y = f(x) things to the nth degree and graphing, as well as stretching functions etc.
You know what applied's first unit is? VECTORS.

Despite the now easy level of math I am doing, I still dislike math in general. I also predict that Applied might 'pick-up' and gain a little more difficulty soon. That being said, it'd be cool if I could get my highest math mark since grade 7.

Or I could just herp derp derp and fail at easiness. There's always that possibility.

Dramarama:
ONE CANNOT SIMPLY ESCAPE THE DRAMA. I BLAME YOU PJ.
But it's not like I hate drama. Unlike math, drama is FUN. Mind you, I'd have a lot more fun if I could stop my self-conscious garbage for 5 damn minutes, but hey you cant have everything you want. At least this year I'm not being as much of a reclusive outcast. But that's debatable.

Lunch:
Still hangin with the usuals, still being too quiet. But I are improving.

Language Arts:
Same awesome teacher as last year (The one with the Brooklyn accent), but now, WITH A TWIST! LL and many of the LL CIRCLE are in this class. (LL Circle is basically a bunch of LL's peeps) So while it's awesome that LL and I are in the same class, eh's gonna be distracted by the circle. Also this is the most important class of the semester, besides math (LOL), since I need to do good in it to get into uni. So yeah its gonna be interesting.

Advanced Drawing:
I have a friend from science in that class, so it won't be totally boring. However the teacher is OCD about making us draw, and my drawing ability is trash, so we'll see how this goes down.

It may lead me to improve my characters in the future maybe :o

And that's that. Cya next post!
