I began this year with one of my best flashes ever, and a very big popularity boost.

Sprite TV 2 did exceptionally well and ended up being great! I really had some fun working with those guys.

Then came a very hard game by ssjskipp and I, HexStar. I feel like this game is overlooked a little. If you actually take the time to learn how to play it is pretty addictive and can be a great time waster. I guess it was just WAY to hard for the general audience of Newgrounds.

April rolled around and DrawIT came out well for us, but after finishing it, I still felt it lacked what it should have had. Should we release a 2nd?

A few days later, I released another game from ssjskipp and I called Twist 2 which was a re-make on my original game Twist that did very well in the portal. Sadly, Twist 2 got the exact same score the first one did. I guess because of the challenging factor once again?

June was a fun month, I got to work with a friend of mine finally (coolio-niato) and we released a fun mind game called - Mind Impulse -. The score was phenomenal and we even got it put on yahoo games over at yahoo.com. I felt good that month :]

Over in July I released The Baby :3 which was a 1 hour short I made for animation practice battling Kyle Thomson, my fellow game designer, it wasn't very important at all. Besides the fact ive been 5ing it for the past 5 months to get its score to what it is >.<

I also put out one of my most famous games, Box Dodge Fury. Its simple and slick design let it spread far and wide. Someone even made a YouTube video of it, which made me happy inside, and it's on quite a few websites. Kyle and I finally started working together again and found out, simple and quick games, may be more effective than games that we spend forever on.

This game has to be the biggest let down of my year. I worked long and hard on this HUGE beat game. It has an animated story mode and really REALLY fun game play if you learn it. I guess it was just TO difficult for some people. But, I definitely recommend you go give it a try.

In the last few months of the year, I think ive been getting much better at design and layout setup, as well as transition effects and making the user's happy. Here are a few of my later submissions which I feel I have learned a lot off of.

Well, its December now and I have only released 3 more flashes. My best ever which was The iPhone Shuffle, which some people love and others hate. I gained tons of fans from it, and about 4 people put it on YouTube. I EVEN GOT IN THE TOP 50, NUMBER 1 FOR A DAY :D, that really made my year worth it. Thanks Guys!

After it, I released my other 2 games, both being puzzle/logic games. Mind Cards was FINALLY released (even though we started it about 8 months ago and just never felt like finishing it) and it did super well from what I thought. We then submitted our last game, Grid81. This game did terrible for my expectations. I don't understand what people don't get about it, but I guess I know now, those games aren't for you guys :P

Thanks for the great year NG08!
