Super Mario Blitz

Just for a moment, I would like to reiterate how complex and extensible this brave new world is. I’ve been observing it from the outside for a long time, but you don’t really get a feel for all the moving parts out there. It’s almost like the internet is a real thing you can program useful creations for. Far from the days of manually editing and uploading an HTML file. Shocking.

I figure I should start with the one I am most proud of so then it can be all downhill from there. Super Mario Blitz happened sometime around January 2003. It’s unclear and maybe someone should have kept better records. Maybe when the old site’s archives back up it will have some answers. Anyway, I thought that this was created over a summer break when I reversed my sleep schedule to sleep during the day and do everything at night. That is obviously wrong, though, because I put this up at Newgrounds in February ’03. Maybe it was made over a Christmas break. Can’t remember. This was the project that made me realize that I vastly prefer music-action synchronicity, and I should probably just make music videos to songs I like.

The Internet is Complicated Now

Hello to anyone who is still around. Sorry for being a continual disappointment.

In the intervening years since I last did anything notable, the internet has briskly rushed past me into the future of now. The World Wide Web is crazy different.  There’s Facebooks and Twitters and Tumblrs and so on. Why don’t I just use one of those? Why resurrect a silly old domain? What am I going to do?

What do I hope to accomplish? I don’t know yet.

I’m working on short term, moment-to-moment goals. Goal number one was “modernize web site.” Accomplished. Everything has been wiped clean and I will add back as time permits. There were some extremely odd things going on here and I figured it would be best to start fresh. My next immediate goal is to put the Flash shorts back up in an acceptable format.

We’ll see how it goes from there.
