I've finally started to really flesh out the idea I've had for a video game. Now if I only had time to work on it and the skills to bring it to life. Anyone willing to help me with art? and help fleshing out story might be good too, seeing as how this concept doesn't have a story yet. I've just thought up core mechanics so far. Basically just a combination of everything I ever really liked in a game, plus some additional stuff thrown in. So, send me a note or just leave a comment here if you're interested in helping me out. Also, if you're interested in this thing but don't have the time/skills to contribute in art, code, or design, I'd apprciate people to help me test when I finally get this project off the ground. If ever... I've had this idea forever, let's hope I actually make something out of it.

Anyway, what got me fired up to do this was that Mason has a club called the Game Analysis and Design Interest Group, and we're making a video game this semester xD Hopefully I can get into the coding team, as I'm not offically on board yet. But I don't see why not. It should be fun if I can just balance that work with my school stuff. ^___^

So it's quite apparent that I suck with titles... but anyway
I've been trying to join a couple of clubs on dA recently, trying to get more criticism on my own work, and trying to see what other work is out there. So here are the groups I'm trying to get in to... *points down to icons at bottom* haven't figured out if I'm in yet though, that'll probably take some time..

In other news, I got a tetanus booster recently and my right arm's kinda stiff >.< so that puts a bit of a dampener on my plans to start up writing again... I have a pretty good idea for a poem that I want to write, but I'm not so sure how it's all going to come together. I'll post it when I have it written though. I still have some old stuff that I need to upload from that notebook I found, so I'll be posting that periodically so that I have something to contribute to dA. I didn't want to just post it all at once though, because I've kinda dissappeared for too long and I didn't want to continue that trend.

Speaking of notebooks, my friend ~Stefunniii totally overhauled my notebook with this awesome illustration. It's amazing and I hope it inspires me to write some good stuff. I actually had a bit of an idea for something late last night, but I was just too dang tired to write anything.

Seems like I've been quite tired lately in general from like familal stuff...
=/
which would explain the *sadness* mood in the journal-thingy there. But I'd rather not contribute to the drama of dA, as this is not a blog site. So I'll leave that out of here.

Wow this is a dang long journal from what I'm used to writing O_O
Well, before I go, just know that if you happened to wonder why your getting comments on works that you posted like... about a year ago, that's because I +watch way to many great artists and have been trying to sift through stuff, even so, I'm pretty backed up because I try to give criticism and thoughful comments to all of my fellow writers. I try with the visual artists too, but I suppose it's just harder for me to relate and give appropriate criticism because I'm not very good with the visual stuff >.<


----------
Clubs/Groups:

Been recovering from getting my wisdom teeth removed, so I've been in a little bit of pain and I've been eating mushy food... It was ok for like the first few days and then it was like... ok. I want real food now >_<

anyway, on the topic of artsy stuff...

I recently found an old notebook of mine from two years ago because I was looking for something to write on while my friend took my main notebook to decorate it for me, and found some pretty good stuff. So I might post that up soon. Also, I've been reading a lot of poetry of dA lately, and I was inspired to write something... didn't actually get anything out yet, just like, brainstorming stuff, fragmented ideas. But I'll try to get it up on dA as soon as I have something cohesive written.

I took a ton of photographs on the orchestra trip a few weeks back, (well, honestly I think it was more like a month ago...) and I took a couple that I think would be good enough to post here. I kinda wanted to play with the colors and stuff in photoshop a little bit first, so it might be a while before they actually get posted...

and on the topic of art..
I haven't posted any literature in quite some time, mostly becuase I just haven't been in the mood to write much of anything lately...
/sigh...
tons of work to do

Dang... it's pretty late and I really need to finish my Japanese hw..
ack..
ah well...

Can someone remind me to post up some new stuff tomorrow...?
