College has been absolutley crazy with the amount of work I've been doing, but I am happy that my classes are all new and interesting and all pertain to my major :]
But for a certain project I'm kind of stumped. I'm supposed to come up with a mock game idea, and an artstyle along with a color palette and type-face look for a specific point in history. And my topic is The Cold War. My Canadian history classes didn't delve too much into this topic, so all I can gather is that this is a war were pretty much nothing happened and both sides were just scared the other would attack (hooray for historical ignorance). I'm thinking maybe I can create some sort of game having to do with the "Space Race", and have something like "use resources and try to build a sucessful rocket to get to the moon first". Maybe like Spore, create a creature but instead you try to create a succesfull rocket design and it's more like a game for an iPhone or something like that. Any thoughts / suggestions?
Just found a baby cockroach in the bathtub this morning though... hooray for dorm uncleanliness! If I find a big one in my room.. well... I'd try to kill it but you know, those buggers are faster than the speed of light.
Of Course, for the upcoming Monster Hunter game now for the 3DS (which is unfortunate 'cause I don't have a 3DS, and if otherwise I'd be all psyched to get it), they have to make the most badass subspecies ever. For a game I can't play. Red and black. Jinouga. Need I say more? I'm still new to the Monster Hunter game, I just was able to buy Freedom Unite two years ago with the purchase of a PSP (I did get Tri for the Wii though when it did come out), so subspecies to me are totally awesome and cool and I get all excited for 'em. Meanwhile, it's pretty commonplace to veteran players so I'm spazzing out while they're all just like "meh no big deal".
But come on.
Red and black Jinouga.
Most badass color combination ever.
