Been teaching myself programming since the start of 2014. Making simple games for now but as my knowledge grows so will my projects!

FlashPixel = flixel? Flixel is great for games like you'd see in ludum dare. It's quite unforgiving when trying to go past that, though (using haxe flixel).
School always gets in the way, but I think/hope this will be my most chill semester. Lucky me because I just started with something that will hopefully turn into a steam greenlight game. We'll see.
Flixel is what I meant haha Yeah I think I'm going to go with FlashPunk in the near future. Probably wrap up one more game using the Flash IDE that I've been making and then take the time to learn FP.
Yeah school is a definite time sucker...at least if you plan to pass all your classes. Dude that's awesome you started something that may become a Steam greenlight game! You'll have to tell me about it when you are ready to release details to the public :)
looks cool man!
looking forward to play more of your games when they come out in the future (:
Thanks dude! I can't wait to see what you accomplish this year! :D
The graphics look incredible. You really draw that good??
kkots how you been man?
As you once joked you wouldn't play my games for the art haha....so sadly no I didn't make them. They were royalty-free art assets I got online. Can't remember the source right now - it was a group of artist that did a small crowdfunding campaign and when they met their goal the release like 8,000 assets for free online for the general public. So everything you see except the character is from that source.
I have been improving my own art style though :P For this game I really wanted to focus on a bunch of new code I've never tried before so I used the free assets so I could just focus on programming. I have 2 other games I'm also working on that I am making art for but they are rather rough right now as the games are in the early stages so I upload this pic instead.
You currently working on any game projects? Haven't seen you around in the forums in a long time..
Cute work so far. So few people seem to be into characters or character development when it comes to small games these days.
Thanks buddy :) I gotta say dude you make some really cute characters as well.
I feel like spreading bad advice and bad programming habits on forums, and I think that the forum regulars know their job much better than I do. And even if I help any people on there, it will be better if I don't, because my help corrupts and spoils the people. After an incident when the regulars pointed out flaws in my code that I showed I realized that I am not good or disciplined enough to help people and so I shouldn't.
I'm currently going to work on Deshiel's space shooter project but I have not started yet. I really should, though. Oh, and I'm trying to draw.
Don't be so hard on yourself man.... You've help me a few good times during my first year of programming.

Hang in there dude everything will work out eventually :) Took until I was 25 for things to start working out in life.
