The Best Feeling In The World

Posted by Wurmy - October 26th, 2008


Although I'm sure Tom and most of you will disagree with me, I have found the best feeling in the world. And it's not sex, masturbating, or anything relating to orgasms.

It was definitely finding out that my flash, Jump ! was on the Front page.

After submitting the game, and getting a third best award for the day, I was pretty pumped. But, after checking almost every hour of the following days, and never getting front paged, I'll admit I was a little dissapointed (sp not on FF?). Sure, the game was on 60+ other sites, racking up views (and $$ thanks to NG ads :p) but the fact that it wasn't really viewed much on NG was kind of sad for me. So I pretty much gave up hope of it going on the frontpage after the first week, and turned to focus on another game.

But then coming back, two weeks later, and finding it on the Front page.. well... that was just amazing. I mean, I thought the game was basically forgotten, beneath the other submissions.. and I'm still surprised it got on the Front page!

Either way it was definitely one of the best feelings ever.. It's like the day you finally are recognized in the place that matters most to you, after years of seeing other flashes and hoping that yours would make it there.. it really is great.

So super awesome special orgasmic thanks to whoever posted it on the Front page. I mean, to go through a couple of weeks of submissions and put the ones you want on the front page is definitely something I would have blown off. (I'm guessing FP wasn't updated because Tom was in Japan).

So that's the best feeling in the world. Getting your Flash recognized after you think that it's been long forgotten. :))

SO ANYWAYS
One game coming from me and TheMillz coming to you this Halloween, so stay sharp (hint hint).

And one day, you will also see a Source Mod, by yours truly, come to you. If you have Half Life 2. It's really just a simple campaign, puzzle themed game. Absolutely no planning has gone into it, I just kind of make the levels as I go. It's really fun, whether the game is fun or not :)

So have a screenshot of the starting place (kind of). It's about the 5th version. I've gone through 5 other designs, scrapped them all, and I think this will be the final one. Still a WIP though.

I'm also addicted to the song "Welcome To The Black Parade", by My Chemical Romance. Don't ask. You know, I always thought they were an emo band.. the name sure sounds like it would be.. kind of?

Whatever.

A thing to note about my HL2 mod. I have coded absolutely nothing. You can make a full Half Life 2 campaign, from start to finish, without coding anything. Of course, you'll be limited to what the original HL2 has, which is still a hell of a lot of freedom, but whatever :)

Here's a screenshot:

Here is a congratulatory cock joke.

I love those things :D

What program was that drawn in?

You mean the picture? It wasn't draw. A level for my game made in Hammer, Valve's Level Editor for Half Life 2.

you know,
the lyriics of that song are actually from a country song.

pretty weird huh? from country to emo.

Really? Huh. Learn something new everyday. I still like the song :)

That's not the best feeling in the world. Jesus.

Although I've never got daily 4th so I don't know maybe it is.

Yeah, I should get out more.

masturbating is pretty high up there on the list. DONT DISS IT.

Piss rhymes with diss.

In my experience, giving someone who really pisses you off a knee in the groin is the greatest feeling...

Unless you're the receiver.

I wanna know how it feels when your hard work get appreciated and given honor by putting it on the front page of the site

Then make original non-sprite movies (:

Submitting a movie you've worked hard on to Newgrounds is one of the best feelings in the world to me. Seeing it on the frontpage is another wonderful feeling, for sure.

So true (:

Grats

Thanks (:
