http://poisonedminds.com/ Funny series that involves a fox, his vixen mate, and his two renters, a stoner rabbit and a homicidal rabbit. Language and sex are to be expected.

Gee I REALLY love it when the furries focus on just that one bit. The whole social political time travel plot stuff is totally lost on them. When I started that fucking strip, I had never heard of furries. I've since learned to loathe them.

Oh, and all the sex is implied and almost always played for laughs (and *GASP* PLOT). I since cut a lot of those jokes out thanks to our cat-eared wearing, dog fucking friends here.

If you like reading my strip, fine. If you get off on it, hell that's fine too, I don't care. Just DON'T lump me in with you social rejects!

I found the book "How To Draw Manga, Macromedia Flash Techniques" really useful. It's painfully fan-boyish, but if you can look past that there's a look of useful tricks and tips in there. It's improved my game a lot and I've fiddled about with Flash for years.

I put this in General by mistake and nobody moved it so I'll spam and repost it here (sorry, I suck)

After buying the O'Reilly book "Flash Hacks" (get it, it's good) I've been digging around in the uncharted waters of our beloved app to see what can be done with Flash that was considered by many to be impossible, and find a practical use for them. Oh and BTW, a "hack" is getting and application or piece of hardware to do something it really wasn't designed for. Hacking can be used for cracking, and that's where the dip-shit media mixed the two up.

Anyway one thing that's barely documented by Macromedia because in stand-alone Flash it's not used, is webcams. Its there to support a range of over-priced server side products that Macromedia peddle but just in Flash it's rather useless.

There's always a warm glow in any nerds heart when he finds a use for the useless, and I feel sooo toasty still! After seeing a review in PC Gamer for a PS2 Eye Toy rip off, my mind went back to reading about ActionScript "Camera" object.

And this is the result:

Yes folks, possibly the world's first Flash webcam game!

EDIT: Actually It's been pointed out that there ARE other webcam games already on the portal, however only one I've seen really counts as a game and that one was "Dress up yourself". I'll let you figure out what you do there. Still, my statement still holds a little water as mine is the first game I've seen you have to use the cam to play.

Anyway as you can see it's not doing that great score wise. This didn't come as a surprise to me as the game suffers from a flaw. You need a webcam to play it!

So here's my dilemma: Should I keep making original games like this? On the one hand I get praise in the reviews and lots of people tell me how great it is. These are the people with a cams of course. Everyone else probably votes zero and then gives a five to something that has big tits in. It's never going to be mega popular because you need non-standard hardware to play it!

It's not just webcams ether. I've found ways to use the mouse wheel and the right mouse button. Some of you windows users might be going "but I don't have a mouse wheel!" and you Mac users will be going "but I don't have a mouse wheel OR a right mouse button".

So should a make a mouse wheel or webcam games? I've got some ideas for it but will I just be shooting myself in the foot? Sure they'll be original, but the audience will be limited so is it worth it.

So far the answer is "no".

Really? Heh, well I'm not overly surprised. I'd love a link tho.

Crap, I tought I was in the Flash forum! That's a good start isn't it?

Sorry, I just can't see it. It's not an anti-clock knee-jerk thing. I just think "PHARMACY" is far FAR better and should be #1.

Oh Dave, you so silly! *giggles*

If it was flawed, why dont you just say that? Instead of using other words to describe it, you dont sound smart, you just sound like a fcuking nerd that spends his entire day thinking about what hes going to do on the next turn. And speaking of looking up words, i'm pretty sure fuck-tard isnt anywhere in the dictionary. Have a nice day.

Well you see "fuck-tard" is TWO words, not one and the second is abbreviated (opps, sorry for the long words you probably can't read). "Fuck" and "retard" ARE in the dictionary, so fuck off and stuff your 30 sided dice up your arsehole you fucking loser!

Probably because you're a fucking dumbass can't you make up youre mind? Its like saying you hate eating carrots but you just cant stop staring at it, stupid.

It's called being "flawed". Look the word up when you go back to school tomorrow you fuck-tard! Most of it's good but there's a few big fat problems with the game that ruin it.

It also isn't very hard. I beat it the 3rd or 4th time I played it. If you don't like it, don't play it.

It's not that simple. I WANT to like the game but it keeps letting me down. I know actionscript so I know this took time and a level of skill... That just makes the randomness of it all the more annoying
to me.

Why is this number 1? I really did give that game a chance. Honest! I respect the action scripting and most of the graphics (but that grey is more then a bit ugly), but after the Dark Knight kills you the fifth time in one damn hit I got more then a little pissed off at it! I mean I had this huge guy with a big sword and armour and tonnes of other crap and the first monster jumps out and kills me without me even rolling! What ever you do or have it don't mean shit! Games like the great Tiapan 3000 uses a random hit/miss system for fighting but it's FAIR! My shitty review I did for it came about from playing for about 30 minuets and getting nowhere and VERY annoyed!

I've never liked D&D that much anyway and Something Awful's "LowTax" summed up my D&D experiences nicely...

Ripped from somethingawful.com:

DUNGEON MASTER: "You're in a room. There is a door. The room is moist."
ME: "I want to open the door."
DUNGEON MASTER: (Rolls dice) "You can't open the door. You're an elf and your elven saving throw versus door opening failed." (Rolls dice) "Also, you took 2 damage points."
ME: "Wait, damage from what? Nevermind, I want to throw my flask of flaming oil and burn down the door."
DUNGEON MASTER: (Rolls dice) "You throw it but miss the door because you're an elf and you can't throw." (Rolls dice) "The oil burns you for 18 damage."
ME: "Fine, I want to cast a 'Open Door' spell."
DUNGEON MASTER: (Rolls dice) "You screw up the spell and instead end up casting 'Open Sore.' The dwarf behind you suddenly shouts while dwarf goo drips out of his STD." (Rolls dice) "You take 9 damage points."
ME: "Huh? From what? Okay, whatever, I want to give the dwarf all my gold in exchange for him opening the door."
DUNGEON MASTER: (Rolls dice) "He accepts your proposal and opens the door for you."
ME: "Great, finally I didn't get hurt by-"
DUNGEON MASTER: (Rolls dice) "You get hit in the face by the door for 12 damage points."
ME: "Goddammit."
DUNGEON MASTER: (Rolls dice) "Inside the room is a set of chainlinked iron coif shell plate scale power armor."
ME: "I want to wear the armor!"
DUNGEON MASTER: "You can't because you're an elf and the only things elves can wear are those sissy green folded hats and a light cotton blend shirt that attracts enemy projectiles."
ME: "Wait, you never told me that-"
DUNGEON MASTER: (Rolls dice) "You suffer 21 damage points of sheer embarrassment for failing to put on the armor in front of the dwarf. You have died."
ME: "Hold on a fucking second here-"
DUNGEON MASTER: (Rolls dice) "Your corpse takes 15 damage points."
