44.5: Batman Arkham Asylum's art direction.
Aaaand actually you CAN jump on guys' backs and slide around while shooting crap in the game.
35. The fact that games with lengthy cutscenes do not have DVD-type controls. Especially being able to stop in the middle of one, save, and walk away.
36. Quick Time Events. THEY. ARE. NOT. FUN.
37. Plots involving top-secret black ops Super Soldi...
How did you go back in time?
Yesssssss!
"After all what is a hundred dollars, but a HUNDRED PENNIES!"
The Left 4 Dead guys' costumes are so creative I think they just broke the internet.
That is heinous. I hope you took the opportunity to proselytize them. Only like 2 people recognized me as Quote from Cave Story so hopefully at the very least I raised awareness.
Wait so if people didn't give you candy you exploded their dogs' faces? I'm locking my door and boarding up my windows next year.

Boring Scientist said… - Death Cab, ftw.
Also, excellent cover art, btw.
I'll just leave you to wonder whether that's "for the way" and "by the win" or not.

Stan said… - I have procured a copy of SP5 and mirror Josh's sentiment re: "your pixel art on the back of SP5rules". There was some pixel art on the back of an earlier volume as well, sort of a "Final Fantasy Tactics Advance"-esque street scene. Was that also you?
On a side note, I have - naturally and in conversation - used the words cul-de-sac and pantywaist (vs. milquetoast, although I'm pretty sure I've used that before as well), to various degrees of reception.

Josh said… - I actually said this somewhere else but:
Your pixel art on the back of SP5rules.
I like the debug mode-ish subspace door one the best, probably. Nice detail, cool work.

No fair. I am jealous. Did O'Malley just contact you because he liked your fighter sprites?

Saltypaintchips said… - Do you have any samples of the comic work you've done, or somewhere to read the whole piece? I looked at your deviant art page and I liked your stuff.

sexysexybicycle said… - Are you still working on that Scott Pilgrim game? I love the sprites that you've made for it. They're all perfect. When I saw them I got super excited. I actually still check your wayofthepixel topic on it from time to time to see if you've updated it at all. I don't mean to be an Annoying Nancy (or a Creepy Carl at that), I'm just curious of any progress. I'm sure you've got other stuff you're working on right now. Anyway, awesome pixel art! I am a fan.
