As of today, my second ever game, Pirate Launch, hit 100,000 views on Newgrounds! I've been watching it's view count for a couple days now as I saw it climbing on up. The game was never front paged, so I was really excited to still garner so many views. My second closest submission has 53k only (and it was frontpaged). So I'm pretty excited for that!

Snowboarding
Well, in my last postI was desperately trying to find a physics programmer to help with a game. About a month after I hadn't gotten any responses. BUT, an old buddy of my brothers is in some sort of computer sciences/programming course at University.
He's serious a super mega genious. He has never done actionscript before, but he believes he can pick it up as he goes along to be able to make a game! That's ridiculous man. There is no way we'll finish for the Winter Flash off, but whatever it should still be fun.
All the character art is finished, with 9 characters to play as in total! So hopefully that's enough to keep everyone interested :)
-----------------
I've considered for the upcoming summer, maybe putting more focus on my Flash. I'll be finishing up Grade 12, and it will be my last year before heading off to University.
I've always assumed I'd work full time over the summer, but really who wants to do that!? It's probably my last summer to not work full time!
If I can swing it with my parents I might just keep my current part-time job and then make Flash games as a job for the summer. I have several ideas lined up that I could finally have a chance to tackle. So we'll see how that plan goes...
-----------------
I don't want to get into many specifics on other projects.
-So far I have 1 movie that needs finishing up. Yup. It's still the next Goat movie.
-I'll be a part of a mini 3-man collab pretty soon. No decided date for that yet, but it will be loads of fun!
-I have ideas for about 3 different games, but I won't be starting them just yet. Maybe over the summer like I had said
-Bill's Quest is on hold again because School is busy for Senior Pelo. But it WILL get done. We have no tight schedule. I like working on something so laid back. When it's released some of the art will be 2 years old now!! I'm worried people will think that's what my current skills are. But whatever, I'll just have to prove them wrong right!
I mean, look at how dope my art is!
I sure was one bitchin drawer. I've lost my touch

Sounds like you're nice and busy, good luck with everything! How the hell did you get 100k without Front page btw?!

Thanks man. I was just playing zOMGies like half an hour ago :)
Well, it was daily firsted, so it sits on that chart of recent daily firsts for like 2 weeks. Then it got weekly 6th. So for a week it was on that chart as well. That contributed a lot of views.
But now months later, I'm still getting like 100-150 views a day. So people must just keep coming back!
