I had a really odd dream yesterday. And I got ahead on assignments (barely) over the weekend. To that end, I decided to make today Random Encounter wallpaper day. That's the first time I've made a new wallpaper in like... more than a year :V. It's quick and lazy so, somewhat odd and rather ugly. As I said, I had a really odd dream. I was goin through my old comics and a cell that caught my eye was Loki and Saturn walkin along (presumably this was an odd remembrance of RE volume 1 when they walk through the corridor) and the background was purple stars. I was all like whoa check out them purple stars it's like I colour balance'd the red starfield background I made for my laptop background I do not remember that I guess this story does not really have a point but I never really did design a weapon and shield for Saturn and sometimes I like random outfits but I am often too lazy to go far enough to design colours for them so monochrome is pretty good too.
I should redesign this site over the Christmas holidays.

Br. 5 group assignments + 1 essay = no comic. That was always to be expected. Here, have like 100 pixel portraits.

It was totally my birthday on Monday. Good times. Not so good times is that it is now second week back at uni, so probably this will be the last comic until I am off for the year (less than 20 weeks woooo).
So at least there is a Random Encounter update. RIDING OFF INTO THE MOUNTAINS, NEVER TO BE SEEN OF AGAIN FOR LIKE THREE OR FOUR MONTHS.
Tuesday July 22
Back at uni, too busy too finish an RE comic... but I do have a hastily-constructed New Game update. I also have a raging hatred for university administration for continuously giving me conflicting informations and taking ages to reply to simple questions arrrrfgggh.

New Game updated again! Gooo Zack! Take the plot train all the way to the station! You know you can't rely on whinyguys to get the plot anywhere!
Now kidnap that purple guy and use him to get the plot sorted EXTRA fast. :B

I think I need a new mouse. :B
However, you guys have a new New Game update! IN GLORIOUS TECHNOCOLOUR. IT'S LIKE STARING INTO THE RAINBOW FUTURE. And the future is full of boys in dresses.
This is my final week before I go back to uni. I have work, but I really wanna try and update three times again. After that it will likely be back to hella sporadic updates... Certainly I will do my best to post a new Random Encounter, though I am less than a quarter through the sketch right now. Hmm... I also want to get my adventure game engine done but that doesn't seem likely right now. Ah well, I have had a moderately productive holiday C:
Also a really cool guy on SheezyArt showed me that you can make some really crude pictures with the new character generator. That is awesome. Times are good.

Not working on comics all weekend is p. cool. However for some reason I decided to work on the ol' flash character generator and so finished it and sooooo there's a new flash character generator on the games page. Fully new. Yup I sure do love wasting time.

Arglebargle feelin sort of ill. But I will prevail! It's my mum's birthday party tonight so I will just have to buck down and eat a lot of cake.
Anywho, here's the new Random Encounter comic! Clearly Sanders has forgotten her lackey's names. And also Delta is all like 'dammmmmmn, ain't no way I'm gonna remember all these guys'. Then Hesh comes along and it turns out they're both dirty traipses so all is well. Hesh is a p. cool guy. He's all up ons spouting demented traipse secret phrases and Delta's all oh hells no I don't remember any of that junk what are you trying to say. And then, it turns out that Windstrike's first name is Jake, and Svitty is a raccoon. Incidentally, the Trickster God is called Jake and his symbolic animal is a raccoon. This is irrelevant entirely but I liked that coincidence.
I haven't even started sketching the next Random Encounter but the next New Game is up to the outlining phase so that may go up next week. I'm thinking of spending this weekend trying to not be sick - I haven't gotten much sleep lately which is hells sad because sleeping is great. Some people have hobbies that are drawing or yelling really loud but my hobby is sleeping and I would like to catch up on it some.
