Flip Shott!! nowe Announced


          Fake World Studios (FWS), based in Denver, Colorado, announces an exciting new card game for the ages! Flip Shott!! Stand-Allen Edition nowe. The president of FWS and lead programmer, Thomas Novak said in an interview that "[Flip Shott!!] eschews modern day graphics that limit today games and instead focuses on delivering on its core gameplay and freedom. I didn't want gamers to play how I wanted them to play, but for them to play how they want to play. Graphics and money..., and money get in the way of that freedom of play." Flip Shott!! has an impressive amount of game modes and customization options allow players to truly play their way.

          The game has apparently been in development for 7 years but has had some trouble through it long development. The game bears a striking resemblance to the Nomuraworks 1978 classic game, Shoy Schot! When confronted on this Novak was quoted as saying, "So should EA sue Activision?" Also, because of its long development the game has undergone a lot of changes which seem to be to the cause of its subpar superb graphics.

          Flip Shott!! Stand-Allen Edition nowe was released two days ago; very strange, seeing as the official announcement was just moments ago. This seems to has been because of undisclosed legal reasons. Anyway, Flip Shott!! is available for download off FWS' game site (fws.flipshott.com/nowe) for $67.94. The game is currently only available for PC, but Novak believes a Mac, iOS, and Android version will be available by the end of the year. He also promises a 'huge' DLC pack this summer. Stay tuned.

UPDATE 1 (4/1/13): The website appears to be down. Check back later. Added Logos.

Current State Of My Projects

This has nothing to do with my projects but it looks nice.

          This is a list of my current projects and their statuses. I was originally going to put this post on Projects but since I'm talking about all my project I decided to throw it up on the main site. It's mostly for me but I wanted have full disclosure of my projects. See them after the jump.

UPDATE 1 (5/4/13): Added a project I forgot about. Some status updates.

Best Quote of the Week ~ [2/24/13]



          "Until the image of the black man in the mind of the black man has been changed, there will always be delinquency, parental and juvenile. The idea is not to change the attitude of the white man to the black man but to change the attitude of the black man to himself."

Disney's Paperman And The Tech Behind It


          I found this great Disney short today and thought I'd share it with everyone. It's an amazing blend of traditional 2D animation and 3D animation. Also, a good story in classic Disney fashion. Watch it below.

          I thought I'd also share the behind the scenes video of some of the amazing tech that went in to making this impressive short.





Virtual Gaia Network Is Going On Break


          Virtual Gaia Network is going on hiatus for awhile, while I catch up on school. Best Quotes of the Week will be up this Sunday, but won't return until the hiatus is over. Elevator Music's next Update will not go up this month. I'm sorry, guys, but I am really stretched thin right now. It's doesn't mean all that stuff is done or that a post won't find its way to the site, but I really need to focus on school right now. Also, there are a few other things I want to try and learn, but can't do them while I'm doing 50 other miscellaneous things. Anyway, hopefully it won't be long. Bye for now.
