I'm really glad Castlevania hasn't let Alucard steal the show. He's cool, but not half as interesting as the Belmont family. #Castlevania

I need to preserve about 200tb of data, mostly .psds -- Anyone have a recommendation? It'd be best if it was something mobile I coul

Looking at one of these right now --

Over the years of making games here at NG I had a lot of projects that didn't make it. Recently I have been digging through old files, and wanted to share some of these. Keep in mind, all of these are broken! Some are just mockups, most stop working a little ways in. But still, it was a great trip down memory lane. Let me know what you guys thik! I'll try to provide any information I can remember about them. I want to also share how many projects don't make it when doing game dev. If there are no instructions about controls, try arrows and wasd, those are always my defaults.

GoblinZ

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/2f0a72136a4a291a50a85f7258a8596b

This was a game I was pretty excited about. I wanted to make a cute SOtN, but because of a Stencyl crash durring save and me at the time not having good backup procedures in place, I lost a significant part of the project. It ends abruptly and even the Stencyl crew could not help me recover it. But they did try, and I appreciated it.

Probably the game I get asked about most, and for now I really can say Alice is Dead. As of now there are no plans to revive her, at least not for many years. Really love the ol' girl though.
 

SPACE 4X SIM

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/68e8d2f07424ac6ce36583fd9ec60925
 

This was a project that never got past mockups. I had forgot about it until I stumbled onto the mockups last night, I decided to share them. I LOVE 4X games, like, maybe my favorite genre. They're also hard as hell to make.

SPACE RTS SIM

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/ad851a398b11ba497b344a95c000650b

This was a space RTS I was working on, didn't get far. Was going to kind of be like GuildDungeons in space. You can see I didn't get far, but the ships do move, their mass indicates their speeds. Never got engines in the game.

MANE

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/3c696e016fc098b542bf16ac89247f96 -- acitony stuff
http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/57a98d878a23113c962885bceb9a0949 -- story images

Mane was a project I was very excited about, I was building it in Stencyl and hit limitations in both Stencyl and my own abilities as a programmer. I want to one day pick it up again, either as a comic, or maybe a side scroller once again.

INFINITE PARADIGM

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/b5afafb019679994ab96391d5470460c

This was a visual novel I wanted to make. A more serious, scifi themed Sagittarian. It didn't seem to stir much interest in play testers though and I never got pasdt the crew hiring process. Hania's music is the bomb right? Protip that no one cares about, haha, if you wait long enough on the intro, the glass actually bumps into the watch, I remember being proud of that tiny unnoticable effect. Lawls.

REBEL SKY

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/0cb8154d4cec2653499be53681a22ebb

I might have actually released a small demo of Rebel Sky, but I never should have. It was to be a kind of love story to many NES games and ANIME I grew up on. I don't remember anyone liking this project at all, so I moved on.

PANGOLIN

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/f57ffb2240a1c469068658def3e88591

Pangolin was a webcomic I wanted to make, but never found the time. I shopped it around a little and there never was much interest anyway. I even made a few colored pages to give an idea what I final product would look like. It was to be a dieselpunk mafia type story. Looks like I don't have any of the colored panels online anymore except this one.

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/4c752cee49b15ee55b182e64ec66963a

I don't remember a whole lot about this game, it was going to be a multiuser dungeon, with all 3d maps. These screenshots show I was trying everything I could to make the 3d assets look like 2d painted images. Can't remember much more than that.

STANDARD CORE

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/ba91ee1dcc0885a61eeb914f534dfb6f

This was a project I made in two days, there isn't much to it. Just a little art and the ability to jump. Nothing crazy, but looking at it now I dunno why I stopped working on it. I think it was built in Stencyl. Was going for a Megaman vibe if memory serves.

SPACE SHIP WALKER

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/0deec5ff32e821330cc43dcaf067ace1
http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/draw/4c0a38f543f0da3060af84b63c58a6d8

I think I only made this to test some tiles out. Never made more than this one room.

KNIGHT GUY

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/cfbf8eac592d8597492125c4f8aa64af

This was built to test a sprite animation technique and these tiles. Nothing special but wanted to share anyway.

CASTE

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/d044f7713856eeea9a1258f45c6cd360

Nothing more than a test of some sprite physics, kinda awful to look at now, lol. Stencyl.

SAGITARRIAN SHOOTER

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/df8f1edf085be90004e3eb3057ac7193

I don't know what I was thinking, lol. May lag on older machines.

DRAGON

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/de55304f14f5f42534f9f4ce29769375

A dragon I made, don't remmeber why lol.

WEIRD ALIEN MUSIC TOOL

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/77ff50c0213d19ac1601dffd7b02aef3

Dunno what this thing is, but it was kind of fun to mess with just now, haha. It plays sounds in a pattern over and over, left to right.

STEELCURSE CHARACTER CREATOR

http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/7bf84ceefdf9a4562c80cad0b439423c

This was the first version of Steelcurse! Bumpy and doesn't run well, kinda ugly too. But shows my first attempt at Steelcurse before rebuilding the game I eventually released.
 

Thanks for looking guys, you have to remember to keep creating! I took a big break, but I still make stuff from time to time. You guys have to stay inspired, and keep making games and art! Please share any of your recent stuff with me below, I'd love to see/hear it!

http://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/hyptosis/we-were-lied-to

Not going to lie, I'm a bit out of practice drawing Rabbit. Felt good though.

Preferably someone (but anyone will do) who has been there before so I don't get lost in the big ol' city? If I can I'll reserve a room in the same hotel or whatever.

Because I am forever promoting myself! First three comments get a free steam key pmed to them!

Please check out Wolfsong, my homage to snes era jrpgs. It takes place in the same universe as Relic, hood, Kingdom of Liars, and many of my other titles!
