Now in two dimensions!


This is a minigame featured in my current project, Pokemon Hunter 4.  Although it's part of that game, I felt it was unique and independent enough to get its own separate release.  It was created in RPG Maker 2000.



In it, you play as a Porygon named http:// on a quest through a computer world.  His goal is to find and defeat the other evil Porygons so they won't come into the real world and wreak havoc.



The game uses an ABS that I took great care in crafting.  I did my best to avoid many of the pitfalls such battle systems typically encounter.

It's all extremely simple.  The HUD in the top-left tells you everything you need to know.  The squares are your HP, the triangles are your power level, and the circles are extra hit points.  Pressing the Enter key fires Tri Attack, which hits four squares in front of you.  I've perfected the hit detection, so there's no way the attack could ever miss a target in its range.  HOWEVER, it can only hit one target at a time, so firing at multiple enemies will only register damage on one of them (and not necessarily the one closest to you).

Fighting isn't the focus of the game, as there are no levels or grinding to be done.  Instead, you fight enemies to open doors, solve puzzles, or replenish lost health (enemies occasionally drop health pick-ups when defeated).  Depending on how careful you are, you may not have to fight much at all.



At the end of each zone, an evil Porygon awaits.  These boss fights are quite tricky, and if you don't play carefully, you'll find yourself utterly trashed.  Each Porygon has different abilities depending on its element, which is related to the type of zone you're in.  Once the boss is defeated, you can access the switch to open the next zone up.



This demo covers the first two zones of the game.  It's a good twenty to thirty minutes depending on how well you do.  You can download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/iyxmjgk2yyf/SP3D.zip

Check out this review, too.

I've tested all the content, but if you encounter any bugs, please feel free to report them.  I hope you enjoy Super Porygon 3D!

This demo released as part of Release Something! Day IX at RMN.

I recently found an easier way of sharing custom Brawl stages with other people without having to deal with all the friend code bullshit!  I wouldn't be surprised if some of you already knew about this, though.  I've uploaded a file with all my Stage Builder data, and all you have to do to use them is:

1. download the file below
2. copy the contents to a Wii-compatible SD Card
3. ENJOY!

download 'em!

And I have some screenshots for you, too!


This is a very small sample of what's contained in the download.  If you really must know, I made 259 stages in all.  Some are better than others, but they're definitely worth a look.  And you can always delete the ones you don't like.

And, if anyone else wants to share the stages they've made, all you need to do is:

1. Save the stages to an SD Card in Brawl
2. Copy the folder path that starts with "private" to your computer
3. Upload it!

Viva la pelea!

Hey, everybody!  I'm doing a survey for one of my college classes.  If you could answer this bunch of questions for me, it'd really help me out.  There aren't that many, and most of them are just a number from 0 to 5.  Also, if you're not comfortable disclosing your age online, please just PM me your answers.  It's important for the statistics and whatnot.

Now, for each one, just put a number from 0 to 5, 0 being strongly disagree, 5 being strongly agree.

1. Censorship is necessary.

2. Freedom of speech is necessary.

3. The current censorship laws should be more strict.

4. We need more censorship.

5. America needs more censorship.

6. Censorship is effective.

7. Censorship in movies has increased.

8. Increased censorship in movies is needed.

9. Censorship in music has increased.

10. Increased censorship in music is needed.

11. Censorship in cartoons has increased.

12. Increased censorship in cartoons is needed.

13. Censorship in television has increased.

14. Increased censorship in television is needed.

15. What do you think might improve censorship? (optional essay, for instance, suppose a universal rating system were employed)

16. What age group are you?

a. Under 18
b. 18-29
c. 30-39
d. 40-49
e. 50 and up (psh, yeah right)

Feel free to talk about how you feel about censorship, too.  Hope you all can help!

I've been trying to figure out a way to make an mp3 louder without ruining the quality of the sound, but I don't think I have the right stuff to do it.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might go about this, or know of any programs that can raise volume without losing sound quality?

It's the moment you've all (Ralph) been waiting for!  These are the comics that I write about The Legend of Zelda.  They are the first ones in which I use my unique art style, and you can kind of see it evolve as the comics progress.  If you don't know what I'm talking about, refer to The Kelly Chronicles (see sig link).

However, I would like to make an important note: THESE ARE BASED OFF OF THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: OCARINA OF TIME

They're still fun to read if you haven't played the game, but you'll understand them better if you have.  Also, since the comics follow the game's plot, they will spoil it for you.  So, if you still want to play it yourself first, I recommend you hold off on reading.

Another important thing to know about these is that this story is without end.  I've written a ton of these already, and as of yet they are still not finished.  I'll try to keep up with making them so I can continue posting them, but we may hit a rut eventually.  But that won't be for a looong while.

I'm going to try to post two every other day again, but you'll have to forgive me if I miss a beat.  College life can be so cruel...

#1 & 2



Unlike The Kelly Chronicles, Hylian Odyssey is written in pencil.  I never inked them over, so I use Photoshop's Auto-Levels function to make the scans more readable.  I've recently started writing them in pen, but that's only after 180 pencil ones.

Ah, it's the beginning of an epic...I hope you guys enjoy these!
