In the dark, mysterious days of 2004, there was a flash movie called Fallen Angel: Teaser. It was amazing—not your typical Newgrounds fare, it looked like professional animation. Four minutes of glory, and the promise of more to come. Then, nothing but silence from the mysterious creator.

The next movie wouldn't come out for four more years, with a three-part first episode. Although kinda disappointing, people were just excited to see it again.

The next movie didn't come out for another seven years, with nothing but silence from the author in this time. This time it's 3D animated, with an all-new look for the main character, and once again, nothing but silence since its release.

I'm glad the guy has dedication, but I have to wonder what he's been working on by himself for eleven years since 2004 (and presumably years before that). What kind of mind-blowing story does he have locked away? Why is he so driven to produce this pretty much by himself, to the point that he's only been able to release five short animations in over a decade? Why hasn't he taken it to Kickstarter or Patreon?

Without looking anything up specifically, I assume this is all handily explained by the guy in question having an actual job, with a full production being unmanageable without sacrificing a lot of things he'd really rather keep around, like family and stability and generally being satisfied with how things are working out.

Not to mention that a whole lot of ideas are a lot cooler if they never come to pass and never get the opportunity to fall short of expectations. Like Jodorowsky's Dune, for instance.

So I've noticed a bit of a pattern in some of my recent dreams. Usually something horrible would happen, doesn't matter what exactly, just that it's something you want to run the hell away from as fast as you can. And every time I try I appear to be running in slow motion, like, I feel the sluggishness of my legs, as if moving trough a very thick liquid. Rather unsettling really.

Also I seem to be smoking in my dreams again, not sure what that is about.

I had a dream where i was making a game called Crash and Dash racers (C&D for short) and it was a kart racer with completely random roster of copyrighted characters.
From the top of my head i remember Garrosh Hellscream, TotalBiscuit, Pewdiepie, Crash Bandicoot and Rainbow Dash.

From what i remember i planned to put the game on steam and support steam workshop and attempt to circumvent the copyrights by literally replacing the characters with misnamed MS Paint drawings and having a "Mod" uploaded by a secondary account that replaces them with actual characters.
And to make the copyright infringement complete the racetrack was literally the streets of Stormwind with most of it covered by white bed sheets.

EDIT: Also i finally learned the joys of (mostly) lossless video compression. Now instead of uploadind 6Gb to youtube i only upload 2.3Gb How in hell i managed to miss that.

DANG IT!!! The entire reason I bought a 3ds (other then making sure my brother got to play it) which was Dragon Quest Joker 3 isn't coming to the West. Ok it still can but it is incredibly unlikely and I am not going to rely on "Way of the Samurai" luck.

Now I have a 3ds but what games are even on this system? >_<

Once upon a time Dragon Quest IV was a thing we excited discussed at my elementary school  >.<

And the differences between the japanese and american releases.

I guess you'll just have to learn japanese and buy it overseas! (If it's not region locked, ha ha)

But seriously, I'm sure there are some games. I'm sure there are lots of pokemons. Or maybe play Radiant Historia. I don't know, I don't have a 3ds.

It is Region Locked

Radiant Historia is DS.

And I am waiting for "Pokémon Sun and Moon: The Good version"

Just get an emulator and stick it to the man.
And learn japanese of course (unless it's out in the EU that is)

Nonsense.  Wait for a fan-made translation patch.  Itll only be like 6 years.

Can't you run DS games on the 3DS?

No 3ds Emulator in existence.

Actually apparently they are making headway. But like HECK I am going to buy a second 3ds just for one game.

Yes :P but I had a DS before a 3ds :P I'd like to actually get some 3ds use out of it.
