I was going through a bunch of old photoshops I’d done. Most are unfinished ideas of some sort. Many of them are dated sometime in 2003. While wading through these, I found this:
I assume this was going to be some sort of joke, but I don’t remember making it, much less what the idea was. It isn’t very funny like this. Still, it’s clearly something I did (I have it saved as a .psp in seperate layers, which wouldn’t be the case if I’d just found it someplace) and it was odd to find something I’d done, and of which I have no clear memory.
I wish I could remember the joke. I must be getting old.
Spoiler Warning
A video Let's Play series I collaborated on from 2009 to 2017.
Spider-Man
A game I love. It has a solid main story and a couple of really obnoxious, cringy, incoherent side-plots in it. What happened here?
The Gameplay is the Story
Some advice to game developers on how to stop ruining good stories with bad cutscenes.
Video Compression Gone Wrong
How does image compression work, and why does it create those ugly spots all over some videos and not others?
The Strange Evolution of OpenGL
Sometimes software is engineered. Sometimes it grows organically. And sometimes it's thrown together seemingly at random over two decades.
Who knows ^^
Sifting through old archives because I’m bored this weekend. But. Maybe the joke was that terror threat level appeared to be assigned pretty much at random? I don’t really keep up with what the terror level is from one moment to the next, but I’m pretty sure our actual risk of terror attacks has been pretty much zero since about summer of 2002.
