youll always be so sleepy when youre this tiny *plompf*
In speaking of MS Paint games, this is a little off-topic since it's an IGG project and it's been funded for a while, but the story is interesting. Pretty much got funded and then... a little here and a little there, then radio silence. No rewards were delivered, nothing got done, none of the streams were done, and he basically held content hostage (content he wouldn't have to pay to make) for stretch goals and wasn't exactly clear where the money was going. Not to mention a lot of assets are mismatched and the whole thing just kind of feels like ideas slapped together just to get some money.

And besides that, it's a really dumb game idea that's basically every RPG Maker horror game, but with a plague doctor as the main antagonist. I can't tell you how tired I am of pixel horror nonsense, but anyway, that's enough about that.

Content:
Throw this woman some money to start up a fashion label based on her 8 year old daughter's sketches.

Now, it's pretty obvious that she has no idea what she's doing, but the description just takes the cake:

quote:

My Name is lakisha Moore me and my 8 year old daughter want to start a clothing line for little kids i hope the public can help in our dream to create this clothing line. and children s clothing magazine

Now how about those rewards?

iPhone+DSLR = money. The off-English is also a great selling point, as is the fact that apparently if it gets 200k it can also predict the weather. Because there is no way that an iPhone user has any other way to know what the weather will be like other than by what their magical weather-predicting wireless remote tells them.

The camera remote thing is retarded; for the same price you could get a name brand remote and not gently caress about with a smartphone. Plus you wouldn't have some dangly thing hanging off your camera to get ripped off/in the way.

Plus any decent photographer is going to have at least a small bag of goodies to lug around anyway. If you're just a hipster douchebag and carrying JUST camera and nothing else, then just use your phone to instagram pictures of your loving cat.

The only way it'd be an actual good idea is if you could somehow see through the viewfinder via phone, now that would be handy.

If you fund this movie, then this film will be made entirely out the hands of Hollywood, which allows me the creative freedom to tell this story the way it should be told. The only interjection by Hollywood would be for distribution purposes and by that time, the film will have been finished. This also means that I'll be able to cast a close friend who has been studying martial arts for some time now, and is quite capable of choreographing the fight sequences, instead of an actor who may, or may not, need to be trained in martial arts for several months.

It's not retarded at all. It combines a few tools into a single device.

Sometimes when I'm doing long exposures I do not like to be tethered to the camera. The ir function is always in the front so if I want to do that I have to stick my hand around the front of the camera which is a pain in the dick. Also when setting up for a session I'll often take selfies before anyone arrives to ensure the lighting and settings are how I want them. I use the ir remote to do this but it's annoying sometimes(most times) to hit the sensor because my lens and or hood is semi covering it.

The ability for it to do time lapse and work on multiple platforms makes it very very inexpensive and useful. A similar product from a major manufacture would probably run $150.

It's not just filmmakers, it's any hack who knows they can't compete in the existing market. They know they'll fail before they even start, so they attempt to skew the playing field in their favor before the game even starts. With poets, its "I don't write poetry for the academics in their ivory towers, maaaaaan!" With businesses, it's "We can't compete with foreign sweatshops, so we need to treat our workers even worse."

I'm beginning to think that a lemo ride and hotle stay is just a code word for a kidnapping scheme or something. Obviously if you had enough money to pony up for a $10,000 kickstarter you probably have a family willing to pay more for your safe return.

We use a program called Mono Develop to produce the scripts that run every thing we need to happen in the game as well as its helps us properly render the animations needed for Animals, dust, Light rays, Sun flares, Direction lighting ext. With out his job we could not create our main menu that you can view below. Joe has came up with the script called a hover script it basically tells the game that if the mouse collides with the 3d GUI text on the screen,

I wonder if Joe got to read through any of this before it was posted.

As mankind, we always thought that we would be the cause of our own extinction. Although we always think that it would be through weapons of mass destruction and war that would cause this sudden cease of life. Not even I thought that it would be any thing like this... Someone got their greedy little hands a bio-organic weapon, and launched it at Russia. The effects were catastrophic. When the weapon dropped, the population of Russia down to nearly zero! Leaving it at a devastating 3% left alive... Russian doctors tried their best to help the survivors, but there was nothing that they could do. It left scientist and doctors baffled as they scrambled to find a cure. Yet nothing emerged... Nobody could cure something that they had no intelligence of. The infections spread and soon infected the entire Middle East by nuclear fallout. It soon hit the news all over the world that there was a possible airborne virus. As the virus spread to the population through survivor travel; the population kept dropping and hope for a cure became less and less possible and more like a medical myth. By week 3 the virus had engulfed the entire earth infecting: small children, adults, and even animals. Most people who showed symptoms were dead in a few days; others weren't so lucky... The ones who didn't die were transformed into crazed meat eaters now known to us, as the living dead. Those who were lucky enough to be immune from this horrible virus are forced to scavenge for for survival. Supplies such as food, drinks, and medical help are now scarce as they try to protect their family and friends and outlast this Hell we all now live in. We are what's left. Knowing not when our last days are to come, every waking moment is a question: "Will I live today?" "Will a love one die?" "Will I wake up tomorrow?" We will never know the answers. It's depressing to see people you know and love turn into this evil being and dropping all human instinct they had to killing the immune because they see it as survival of the fittest. I know it sounds crazy but try to view it through our eyes when the world is withering away and man kind is pushed to the edge of extinction with you stuck right in the middle of it... you tell me what the hell would you do..?

Why do people apologize for the quality of the video instead of just taking the time to borrow a decent camera, get a few good takes, proof read the text, and find a shirt that doesn't have the neckhole all stretched out?

I checked Google Earth and it appears that if your one of the lucky high rollers who gets whisked away to beautiful Middletown, Ohio you won't have to worry about setting foot in a non-chain restaurant. Have your lemo driver drop you off at Long John Silver's, you've earned it.
