I lost my source of motivation for making my games and movies.
List:
-Nobody visits me or my submissions anymore
-I procrastinate enough that I forget about them without a weekly reminder
-I am weighed down with schoolwork and studying (and procrastination)
-I feel like my works are mediocre compared to whats been submitted recently
-Its too much work without inspiration
-I could be having much more fun browsing the other flash submissions
.....
In case that was too much for your brains to handle, I will simplify it for you:
I don't feel like working on my flash submissions because I have no source of motivation.

*sigh*

I lost my fountain of inspiration.

I don't know if i have suddenly gotten insomnia
or if I just can't sleep because I'm sick
or if it's because I've been asleep for 17 of the past 24 hours

Whatever the reason, it's killing me because it's 3:30 am
and I have school tomorrow--er.. today.

And there are no sleeping pills-or even any pills with drowsiness capabilities- in this house.
...and I'm starting to get bored.
.

This is gonna take a while...

I can't sleep.

Due to laziness, boredom, procrastination, and more important work (including sleep, watching tv, eating, etc) the second button game will be postponed and also due to summerwork and future schoolwork it will not come out for a few more weeks.
school starts in 6 days. OH SHIT.

poor isohunt :(
(if the picture's too small, i conveniently typed everything up for you to read here)

isoHunt is Sick
__________________________
Everyone wants a piece of isoHunt. Ya, all the good torrents you can get. Do a search and all the torrents are neatly presented with cute little dropdown details in an animated, expanding box. But does anyone care about our feelings? Ever since me and my brothers are born in Chinese factories, we've done nothing but to slice and dice your search requests, look them up in databases and indexes, and spit out pretty HTML pages. It's a boring and thankless job. Your relentless search queries have overworked us and now Bob is sick. He won't cough up data anymore, I'm not sure why. I'm sure the engineers are on their way to fix him up, but won't you stop hitting the Refresh button so often? You know, I like the attention that we are getting now, but somehow I think you care more about those pretty HTML pages we normally hand out than about us. Oh well, I suppose that's why we were created, our meaning of life being serving data and crunching numbers. But just remember us once in a while ok? Us magical fairies who finds what you seek?

We should be back in action soo. Until then, I heard the guys at Google does a pretty good job with searching for stuff too (not as good as us, of cours). If you are here to search for the meaning of life, the universe, and everything however, we'll need a much larger upgrade to calculate that. You'll have to come back in at least a few million years and try again.

OH NO ISOHUNT IS (WAS) SICK!

Which one should i finish first?
Im working with rulerofalldonkeys to make the buttongame's sequel and im working with him and marianne13 to make the dressup game

of course, the buttongame2 will be much better than the original, it wont be just 15 boring old levels
its going to have the tab cheat disabled of course, and there will be hints, secret levels, secret items, secret movies, secret everythings, and of course the menus and transitions will be.. much better
and the game itself will be at least 3 times as long as the original

and the dressup, well. its.... not a beginner drag and drop game like i intended it to be
its going to be... like dress my babe except mich simpler and not x rated.
im aiming for it to also have the same quality as the buttongame2 (in terms of menus and such)
and .... yeah its going to be pretty basic but ill make it interesting too

both of the games are about 20-30% done right now, and i want to finish one before school starts.... 2 more weeks .. *sigh*
SO WHICH ONE SHOULD I FINISH FIRST???
.
.

welcome to the past.

The Find The Button Game II ---OR--- The DressUp Game??


Posted by gnome42 - August 8th, 2008


its a long boring process and
i feel like i need to draw some more which is an even longer more boring process.
of course i need to draw some more so far i have 5 hairstyles, 2 shirts, 1 skirt, 1 pair of pants, and 1 accessory.. glasses.

its a hellish nightmare
i sleep 6 hours and when i wake up i am faced with this bullshit and the only reason im still working on it is because ive already gotten this far in my game and it would be a waste of my life if i just dropped it.
as if its not a waste of my life right now..

interesting newspaper headline.
of course, that dance is the flamingo.

my game is coming along excellently, but
