frameslinger, I think I do plan on doing a tennis collab, but not for a little while. I just think it'd be great fun. Yeah, we did the story thing at school too. Looks like you're learning heaps of stuff about flash, I'm not the greatest at keeping up with all the tips and tricks and stuff.

Treerung, that wasn't really self promotion, or was it? :P

Slodd, I have no fla's, why you no send? Why do you insist on making this a thread of deciet? :3

Ragdey-Anne, the deadline's not for ages, stop the waterworks. :)

pottypoopoo, No post is too long for you mate, and keep going... When you think about, everything is food... In fact, just to test that theory, I'll eat my own foot! :O

I really need to put some time into compiling what people have sent me so far, and I will too.... soon!!

There really is no story to it but I was trying to make it look like Mr. Potato Head was buying a hamburger from a dealer (lizard or weasel) as if it were a drug, the girl would be Frylock as a girl (as seen in the Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie) asking passersby if they wanted a date, the fast talking "veteran" would be a frog with no legs, like Slodd's, on a wheeled cart pushing him self along the background--he's the main focus of the V-cam--and the guy you can barely hear near the end saying "crazy, man" would be a hyped up energy drink can (maybe a Rockstar or a Red Bull).

Umm, I think this sounds like a hell of a lot of work, and it's not all that foodie... I think you should do it as a personal project and submit it to the portal on it's own. It's a great idea, too good and big for us. :D

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted June 10th, 2008 in Game Development

MarkyLyne, are you unlucky? ... ... ... yes. But today is your lucky day! It's in! And I ', a huge fan of it! :D

frameslinger, the guide tip was great, I've never done that before, but I will from now on. That tomato part is bloody awesome, add the sound when you get it and email me the fla when you're happy! That new part is looking great, what's going to happen?

steelsolider, that works... It's not great but it works... yes. Send it on through. :)

Gatling... you love the traced bitmaps!

ThaKillah24, I don't think you're up to the level of quality that we need for this collab. But you can try and prove me wrong! I dare you! :D

Kweaks, I am most certainly proud of that, and I'm back on board for at least an hour a day!

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted June 7th, 2008 in Game Development

I will be back on regularly soon!! Give me two more days!! SERIOUSLY!!!

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted June 7th, 2008 in Game Development

I'm back again, things are too crazy for words in my life at the moment. I've got to get a lot of work done for a major deadline, or BOOM! |:O

Revels, what's that stuff you've got going on in your sig, is that a part you're working on? It looks awesome, and thanks for the advertising! I haven't sat down and looked at how big this is going to be yet, but it's pretty safe to say that it's going to be huge, and need to be split into at least to separate submissions.

ChillyCheese, that's looking awesome!!

Vincoid, those bears on unicycles all look so alike... how can it be. Where's the tomato off to with that backpack.

Slodd, I'd eat the capn crunch cerial with mineral water... three great parts!! You are an animal!! I must be hallucinating! [:<>

Kweaks, thanks for the advice to good old clarky, without you he'd never be able to clarkitupp.

BudGPStudios, That's a great idea and it looks like you're drawing it really well, good stuff! :D

Layer03, thats awesome, I'm over twentyone but I don't smoke, my heart is in tact and I have the voice of an eight year old girl...

MorrowDays, genetically modified food? How political of you... The army are on their way to your house now, to steal the footage and brainwash you.

MarkyLyne, what the hell was that!? It looks great and it's so short! What's going on!!?? ARGH!! I think he's saying "Eats ya!" You know because he wants to eat ya... Or maybe pizza. I really like it, but yeah, make the zombie a pale sickly colour compared with the healthy one.

frameslinger, you sling a hell of a frame! I like your style! I'm not sure what you mean about your movie being wider than 600 pixels... Keep the stage size the same, but zoom in and use your vcam to work around the screen, if your stage size is different then it's probably going to be hard when I come to put the whole thing together... Oh, now I see... There's a hell of a lot of work in that, just tween it across the screen or tween the VCAM across it, don't change the stage size... :?

TommYVF, thanks for making that part, it's good... a little bit too GOOD!! :D

Steelsoldier, that's a great idea, but it needs more work. To be more interesting and James Bondish the apple should be walking across the the screen before it turns and shoots.

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted June 4th, 2008 in Game Development

I've got a few spare minutes while the program I'm working in catches up with me, sooo... You guys have been doing heaps... Let's see... I'm replying to stuff going right back to page 19...

Treerung, that's a fine bit of a chomp! Send me the fla! :D

layer03, that's a great pretzel but there's nothing else going on, I think you need another food character for it to be mad at... keep going it looks great! :D

UberCream, this game is awesome! We should submit that, and they can watch the movie while it loads! :D

Kweaks, that first part is awesome and done, I can't wait to see what you do with the next one!

Slodd, KOALA BEAR PANCAKES!! Awesome! Send me the fla!!

Frameslinger, I love the layercake monster! Exactly what I was looking for!

clarkitupp, the chicken leg is great send me the fla! There's still a lot of crackling in the Coke bit, but it's much better and the lip sync is pretty good too!

DJMAX, that was looking pretty good but I always had a feeling you'd drop out :P

thejdcole, go for it, but it has to be good if it's going to get in. And don't take any guff from these filthy punks! :)

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted June 3rd, 2008 in Game Development

Guys, I'm busy as hell with work for the next three days, so I won't be able to do anything else on this forum until Friday... The biting stuff is looking great, and you're all helping each other out with advice and stuff. Sorry, I'll put in a crap-load of time on this stuff on Friday and the weekend, when this deadline I have to work my arse off for is over... sorry... *sob*

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted June 2nd, 2008 in Game Development

DJMAX, I like it! That's going to be a great part when you get it done! Which foods are going to be facing off? How about a chewbacca kiwi fruit! Of you don't do it I will... I clicked on your sig because you told me not to... you were right, I really shouldn't have, lol.

Kweaks, that's much better! I like the little cheese song at the end, but you need to hold for about a second at the end so that the audience has time to take it in.

UberCream, I'm crap at scripting, I've done a bit but I forget everything straight after I've done it... :(

satan112, the blood went in it's mouth... eugh. You need more mouth shapes for your muffin man, you've just got the a or i mouth and the o as far as I can see, Here's an example of all the mouths you should have... :)

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted June 1st, 2008 in Game Development

OMG!! I was just about to leave for work when... WTF!! Two pages worth of forum! DJMAX WAS RIGHT!! "ONLY POST IF YOU'VE GOT SUMFINK IMPOTENT TO SAY" (lols) Okay, now to answer all this craziness...

Treerung, the food chain thing is a great idea and I guess we could do something similar, what I want is for everyone to do;
- one quick animation (say 13 frames) of a piece of food chomping...
- then another 5 frames of them getting squished... (18 frames total),
in one fla!
It'll be like the animations we all did for UberCream and Gatling's game!
then I'll take them and put them together so they are chomping each other and zoom in or out. We can credit the food chain collab for the idea and link to it, it'll be different enough so as not to upset them, and maybe get them some extra hits!
I reckon we need at least eight for it to work!
WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK? I'll make an example later...

clarkitupp, you really clarked that one up... four posts in a row, no swf to watch... what kind of a show do you think we're running here. This aint no country club, this ain't no disco, this is... something else... something else entirely... Your coke and pepsi thing is nice, but looks unfinished, like MorrowDays said, add a background, and shrink your signature, it's not all about you... :3

ChillyCheese, That's the best most disgusting sausage I've seen all day! AWE-SOME :D

Revels, nice part! The fla works fine, and thanks for the advice to clarkitupp! :D

TommYVF, here you are finally, I wondered when you were going to show up! :D

frameslinger, that banana is great! better than mine! I'm going to go hide under my bed now until this is all over...

Kweaks, YES!! But the music might be a little loud, or maybe my voice is a little soft... I LOVE IT!! KILL THE CHEEZE!! xO

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted May 31st, 2008 in Game Development

Jesus guys, everyone's going crazy!! I've finished the chickens part;
http://spamtheweb.com/ul/upload/010608/4 1446_chicken.php

MorrowDays, soymilk is good for your eyes? That's just what the soymilk company would say! LIES!!! XO

dragonjiggy, if you can animate as well you draw, I think we're in for a treat! :D

MarkyLyne, you know, chickens, food, chickens... ? I could cut one of their heads off? But I'd rather not... I'm glad you liked Slodd's part so much!

clarkitup, clarkitup! Welcome to the collab, Like treerung said upload through www.spamtheweb.com

ZombieswithJetpacks, I wondered where that smell of rotting zombie flesh and rocket fuel was coming from... WELCOME ABOARD!! :D

MarkyLyne, why a week later, you ask? BECAUSE I'VE GOT TO PUT THE BASTARD TOGETHER!! umm... I mean, you know, there's a lot to do to finish it off... Anyway, I've got your ketchup part and it's all good. :)

MeLucky, you're putting a lot of work into this one and it's looking great! It's a good idea to not do the colour until last or you can't see the previous frames as well in the onionskin... :)

Revels, That apple is so dead, but why? It looks great, but what's going on? I is teh afraid of apples now... {:0

MorrowDays! You're in such a better mood now that you've got milk, that's good to see. I can't wait to see what crazy experimental animation you come up with! CALCIUM!! :D

Slodd, that is the best part so far! Great work!! :D

UberCream, The game is great, but I'm crap at it... Score:9, Accuracy: 34%
I shot the milk in the belly!! TAKE THAT MORROWDAYS!! NOW GO GET SOME MORE!! >:D

DJMAX, you don't have to do a muffin one, we've already got two, so I kind of would rather you do a different one. If you're happy with it keep going, whatever you like. :)

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted May 30th, 2008 in Game Development

MeLucky, The problem was that you went straight into the animating without a real idea of what you wanted to do. It was looking good, but when put together it didn't have any meaning... you know? I think you could keep chunks of it, or split it into two parts, or something, but you'll need an idea for each that makes them work... :)

MarkyLyne, Cheers mate, I like you helping people for ideas too, now I don't have to think of them for myself! :D

MorrowDays, How about now? has someone gone and bought milk yet? Keep us updated! :3

MarkyLyne, I'll get that voice stuff done in a second! and good work on that piece, the building looks heaps better with the windows and the fbf when it collapses. The chip dipping at the end is the weakest part of it, I think maybe it should rotate as it comes down and scoop up the tomato sauce, that'd make it more interesting. Loving it though, loving it! Oh and if you really want to do the candy bit it's yours! :D

Slodd, keep the violence light and funny if you know what I mean. No pouring petrol on them, cutting their ear off and setting them on fire...

UberCream, the game is looking awesome! :D
So now I'm going to do;
For the game-
-A vegetable (carrot)
-Dairy (carton of milk)
-frozen food (frozen bag of peas)
(MarkyLyne's doing the candy)

Put together and make a list of all the parts I've got so far,

Make an add to submit to the portal, to see if we can get the punters interested...

A singing roast chicken Part to that robot chicken music

A menu with the layers of a hamburger being the selections... game - credits - play - special features - i don't know...

And don't expect it all to be done to soon... I'm tired already just thinking about it

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted May 30th, 2008 in Game Development

Hey! New people coming out of the woodwork!! Welcome to the food collab! I've got to put together a list of the parts I've already got and compile an early swf of how it's going to look, I'll do that over weekend...

MorrowDays, SOY MILK?! Lactose intolerant? Thanks for putting our billboards up in cardboard city! :D

Dapper, there's no animations in your profile... show us your stuff! :)

Slodd, what are the lines you want me to read... what's my motivation in this scene?

MasetroCC, What part should you do? I don't know... something good and funny... think it over...

Kweaks, glad you liked the old Aussie voice! What does a song about a young prostitute have to do with food?

Nicholas-Deary, careful with those gold nunchucks buddy! WELCOME ABOARD! :D

Magicks, can you upload the file to www.spamtheweb.com instead. I can't seem to get the one you've put there to come through... Treerungs right...

MarkyLyne, I like it! CHICKENS!! Do you mind if I animate it?

MeLucky, I guess it's okay if it's random, but make sure it's really random so that no one thinks the wrong thing. I can wait to see what you come up with tonight!

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted May 29th, 2008 in Game Development

Kweaks, I've done four versions of it and emailed them to you, see what you think...

Slodd, Great news about the tablet! You have a voice actor? I hope you feed him twice a day :3

Well that's all from me for now, off to work!

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted May 29th, 2008 in Game Development

UberCream, I'll do the vegetable, the Dairy, the Candy, and the frozen food then I guess... I'll upload them this time tomorrow! :)

Gatling, I thought you'd be thinking that, I just like typing... type type type... :3

MaestroCC, are you really 80 years old? If so you are in! My question is can you make a part that's good enough? Watch the Face Collab to see the level of quality we're after... http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/42 3270

MarkyLyne, That's the spirit!! :D

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted May 29th, 2008 in Game Development

UberCream, B2B's files he sent to me didn't have the .fla on the end, maybe add the .fla and see if it works.

Gatling, this looks awesome!! I think it needs the stub of the eaten carrot to fall back down to the ground... dead. And he doesn't look frightened enough when he's pulled out of the ground to match the sound effect you used... maybe bigger eyes and mouth and make the mouth keep moving as it comes up and out of the screen... Good luck with your exams! :D

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted May 29th, 2008 in Game Development

MeLucky, That's coming along, where does the burger come from, does he get it straight out of the fridge and eat it?

MarkyLyne, I have your Pokemans part and it's all good! :D...This one it great but it isn't finished. It all needs more drawing for it to make sense to the audience... windows on the buildings, an explosion when the building comes down, I know it's a lot of work, but you've chosen a difficult one and it needs more detail for the audience to understand it. Most of the animation in this is tweens, both shape and motion, you need to put some more fbf stuff in there too, maybe arms and legs on them to make it more obvious that they are giant monster foods... Keep at it, it's going to be awesome!! :D

Simple-line, SERIAL CERIAL KILLER!! :D

satan112, shucks satan, just listen to you talking about open wounds all happy and drooling at the mouth. Now that's evil :D

Kweaks, I'll record the sound for you and email it to you later, it's 6:00 in the morning and I think my wife would kill me if I started ranting in a villainous voice! :D

BornToByte, that bread is so dead! :D

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted May 29th, 2008 in Game Development

I like this game project, it's like a mini food collab inside the food collab!

DJMAX, I don't know what to make of you, but I never want to see the word noob in this forum again, or I'll be forced to call you tiger again, so help me! After calling everyone noobs you better be able to come up with the goods in your animation... /:T

CHILLYCHEESE!! I love the style you've done this in! Simple and slick with awesome colours!! :D

Response to: The Food Collab! Posted May 28th, 2008 in Game Development

LONGEST... POST... EVER... (sorry)

MeLucky, That was Awesome! It's kind of what I mean, but not really.

I want to do a collab which tells a story, but the story is completely insane because each person takes it in a different direction. It would involve say 5 people maximum, and each person would work on the file for say 50 frames then pass it onto the next person who continues the story, then the next person and so on so that the whole movie ties together.

Maybe the collab would start with everyone storyboarding, character designing and script writing away to come up with what's going to happen, then we each make a scene, and one person could make all the backgrounds to tie the whole thing together... It'd be more like how they work in the industry, and we'd end up with a complete film out of it... or a complete mess.

Another idea I had was to draw a backdrop in an fla, then email the fla to everyone in the collab and let them all make something happen in that scene, then send it through to me and I put it all together so that they all overlap and we end up with a really active street scene with all of the animations playing and interacting with each other.

Ahh, the possibilities... :)
What do you guys think?! I could make an example of each with some friends to show you what I'm talking about.

ChillyCheese, You are raspberry cordially invited to join, by pencil animation do you mean hand drawn? DAZZLE US BABY!! :D

satan112, that's GREAT!! Make the background into a movie clip and add a looping animation to it, I love it! You can only see the steam on the one in the top left corner, if that's a movie clip you could add an advanced tint to the others... GOLD!! How about a bear comes in at the end and says no, then eats them... :D

GATLING!! That game is awesome, what if the gun was a banana?

BornToByte, there's nothing better than a nice comfortable style... ahh (:D
