2024 Recap

Posted by Just-a-ng-dummy - December 28th, 2024


What a weird year this was. Better than 2023 for me but still a big piece of shit. I preferred the first half of 2024 before August because things quickly turned into a downward spiral in my case.


I'll just start with my game projects from first to last:


#1: GOMBI ACTION: BOOZE TIME



About time I actually worked on a sequel for the original! The og is most probably my best game during that year and I really like the gameboy colors and platformer jumpy pads and such that I had to make another! I think it still carried the charm from the first one while adding more character to Walter and Dimitri. Although I don't think people really liked this as much as the last one. Probably best of this series kept on being a boss rush and not anything else but hey they're in Australia who knows what adventures awaits the green duo?


#2: SUPER FREAKING WEIRD FREAKING BOWLING



Ah what a lovely game this is! Romance asked me to help with their game project and although I was super busy juggling 100 million projects.. nah I was pretty much working nothing and decided to help a friend's friend. This is my first collab project with me doing most of the sprites featured! My favorite is the Ham. Very fun and you should try it out at least once!


#3: Striving Perfection: Scalable Dreams



Fuck Fuck Fuck Fuck this. This is my least favorite game of this year. Absolute horrid scores on the game jam and barely anyone played it. It sucks because this is the first published game featuring Striving Perfection characters and I have a whole good world idea for it but I wasted it's first appearance on this stupid game jam game. I'm not proud of the combat idea anymore and I just wish Mckenzie was in a different game. At least some people liked the writing (Not on here, the itch io reviewers liked it not the NG people because of course they dont care about that shit)


#4: Egoradise



The game I worked for nearly a year! And it did... pretty good. People like the music from Riley including the story and characters so that's a nice change of pace. I think only one person complained their ass off by the gameplay but I don't think they were suited for the gameplay in the first place. I'm still not certain if I should really continue it. I've been feeling pretty down and exhausted to continue adding something because it seems like nobody really gives a fuck. Maybe I'll get back to it if I have the right motivation from others or a good dick sucking I dunno.


#5: Tankmas ADVENTure 2024



Finally got a chance to participate in a Tankmas Adventure! I've always wanted to join it ever since 2022 but I got rejected if I recall correctly. Well I didn't get my own day of art, I just worked as an additional artist so maybe 2025 I'll get a special day to myself. Honestly I kinda wish my stuff was more popular and invoking that people would add it somewhere but that's reaching too far. None of my characters have reached that mountain peak, probably never. It's fine, it was always like this from the start. As for the art and people working this time, I give my huge respects. After one year without a Tankmas they really came back with a good strong force! Lots of lovely art all around made by very talented and heart warming people. They talk too much none sense for my tastes but whatever, they are wonderful for who they are.


Art:

I don't think any single of my art got to actually stay in the frontpage as it got pushed away by the other ones. Can't blame them anyways. Too much goody artists are making lots of art better than mine so yeah. Here are one of my top favs:



Audio:

I made a shit ton of audio this year! Especially for Egoradise. No frontpages yet unfortunately. Hopefully I'll make one so good people's ears will burst with orgasms from it's sounds. Top favs:



Movies:

I made one animation! Watch it! You'll cream both sides of your pants



Anyways I think that's it. Hopefully I don't turn irrelevant once 2025 rolls around. Oh yeah I forgot to give my thanks to the people I worked with.


Thank you @gooberthed and @emizip for lending your wonderful and lively voices for my game projects. You both did such amazing jobs!


Lots of thanks to you @Romance for letting me work on your silly game jam! I had a blast working together as a team for once and not worrying about my own game 24/7.


Big Big thank you to @Rileyverse for lending your swagalicious music for Egoradise! I'm really glad I was able to work with you and become closer friends this year


Oh and of course lots of love and pizzas to @Peti for having to endure the many many bugs of Egoradise haha!


Finally lots of love to the Tankmas crew for lending me a chance to help on the holiday adventures!


So yeah, stay safe and thanks for reading
