See You Next Year! 2020

Posted by MysticSkillz - December 16th, 2019


Greetings Newgrounds Peoples and Fans

iu_78543_1968023.gif

We are coming to a close of 2019 and 2020 is around the corner. Feels a bit strange and a bit scary to say 2020. We are moving more into the age of the future and I hope things will be bright.

2019 Goals.

iu_78537_1968023.gif

Thank you guys so much for the daily pick for Cyber Fight. It was fun working on it and much love to those that attended the stream watching the slow process of it in the making. If I'm able to upgrade my equipment to a point where things flow a lot smoother, then a lot more can be shown and done faster.

This year I've put most of my time into streaming and networking with the Binx community.

If it wasn't for the community I wouldn't have come across a lot of amazing people.

By being an active member, it comes with rewards.

I may not ever reach partner on Twitch, but this goal has happen on Binx. Almost teared up when this notice came. This means I have special perks I can do and give out to viewers. This is something I've been aiming for months and I'm honored to have such a role.

Playing this game is so rewarding to a point you can be part of it. Literally! By becoming one of the top three players or streamer of the game, you can get your name in the game as a rare card to find.

First place gets personal exclusive decal. :)


Streaming.

iu_78549_1968023.gif

Like many artists out there I understand it can be very challenging to show cast or find a direction flow to get your work out there. Speaking for myself I'm grateful to have find a streaming site I can really build from. Some use Mixer, Youtube or Twitch as well as others that may provide streaming service.

This is something NG may want to start to look into, if the servers can handle the stress.


I'm honored that there are people out there that loves what I do and I love giving back to the community when I can even if its giving prints for free or supporting.


I'm not taking anything away from Newgrounds and if it wasn't for this site I wouldn't have come across you great peoples. This site inspired me over the years and will always have a place in my heart as well as the many fans whom continue to support what I do.


Sorry I haven't been much active here on Newgrounds this year, if you remember from a few posts ago I mention I wasn't going to be to productive this year and some may know why. I'm glad I was able to at least push out 1 project before the years end. Far as next year goes I'm just going to let things flow instead of giving false hopes when it comes to these sprite animations. There are only a few that is left in the Pandora's box before calling it quits when it comes to these type of projects.


iu_78544_1968023.jpg

I'm not much of a traditional animator, but with reference as well as working with sprites inspires me to do something special for my little Queen character.


The Queen is getting so much love during stream to a point she is running it as host and mascot, she's even part of the alert system when something happens on stream she reacts by facing the screen and talk. It's not much! But I put work into her darn it! Lol


iu_78561_1968023.gif

For 2020 my brother and I are looking to open up shop sometime. There are some things we need to work out before hand, we have the studio, just a matter of cleaning up the space.

Drawing and animations will always be my passion to do, I hope I'm able to attend some events next year to really push myself.


iu_78564_1968023.gif

Far as projects goes guys. I'm not going to talk about it. I see Fans are still demanding these to happen and I would love to get it out some day. So far as sprite animations goes this is what may happen next year.

Please don't hold me to it or ask which ones will come first. I'm not going to plan which one get's worked on first or what not, just going with the feeling.

For those who wish to take part of any of the collab projects there will be a collab post in the future when the time comes. This is the last post for 2019 guys. Wow how time just went by, it felt like a month ago since my first post of the year.


Much Love to all! See you and have a safe New Year!

Until Then

Nice man! I hope the shop does well...and here's to another smooth year! #2020

Thanks man! We are set to make it happen and possible streams may take place in shop. We have plans. :) Cheers to 2020

Woo, Congrats on the Derby Circuit inclusion! Looks fun too. Definitely checking out Binx after this too, I rarely sign up to new places these days but it's always good to diversify; be early in case something really takes off...

Open up shop as in: official shop? Online business? Sounds awesome.

I'm hyped for the new year too. Always feel like I'm not getting nearly as much done as I could or should have before the current one's over, but that's life, just gotta do what you can and keep on going; use each new chapter as opportunity for a boost. Happy 2020 in a bit, and looking forward to what you might be putting out then!

Thank CD, Derby is a fun game and not only you get collection cards from it, you redeem them to get prizes. Binx is a great site, for streamers on Twitch it helps streamers grown their channel. They support small streamers and the community it great. Far as the shop goes, we plan to make it both online and official walk in. We just want to keep things simple and small. I agree it's hard to pump out projects like we used too, once you blink another year has past. I hear time fly by but it seems like it's in warp drive. It's challenging to work ahead when adulting and life gets in the way. God I miss being a kid. :/

Sounds awesome, and nice! Actual locale too for the walk-in shop too, or more of a home-based thing? I bought some games from a small shop a few years back that was basically housed in a regular apartment, with five or dix different company names on the door, and the whole living room was just packed with shelves and games, the kitchen a cartridge repair workshop, the bedroom stuffed with boxes... it's pretty inspiring with entrepreneurs really running their own thing from home like that, though a little living space would probably be beneficial too...

Yeah sometimes I wonder if time as a whole is actually speeding up, not necessarily Earth's rotation and the calendar as that but our perception of it, like how you age differently relative to where you are in the world... maybe too much time spent considering dimensional anomalies has a similar effect though. :P Life really was easier back then...

Walk in base, again we keeping things small. If things work out it may expand, for now we work what we got. I agree, seeing entrepreneur doing their own thing is the way to go. No power hunger manager yelling over your head because you want to take time off.

Hallways to empires. :) For sure, and the harder the work the greater the taste of victory when you get places! It's hard to stay motivated when you're working for other people; for causes you don't really believe in. That's the way.

It's better to run a business with people you trust and have same passion makes the work worth it.

Best of luck brother

Thanks man, hope next year I have time to get things rolling.

Word!
