"Retirement"

Posted by Glaiel-Gamer - February 8th, 2008


I am taking this time to let you know that I am "retiring" from making flash games this year.

It's a busy year for me, with school, and social aspects, and everything else going on, and I've just lost motivation for flash. Even with AS3 it's not powerful to do what I want and I just don't have time time to make flash games at the moment.

I'm ready to move on to bigger and better things, and starting in the fall I'll be attending Digipen Institute of Technology full time, which will leave me no time to work in flash. I'll be learning how to program console games in more advanced languages such as C++ and assembly.

This won't be the last time you see or hear from me though, games are still a hobby of mine and I have a ton of unfinished stuff. Weather or not I get to finishing them depends on many things, but don't expect anything soon, or even ever. I still might show my face on the forums or in reviews or somewhere.

Anyway you've all been a great audience, and this experience has been a great way to jump start my future. I hope you enjoyed all my games as much as I enjoyed making them.

No blockslide 3! :(

You must be kidding! I mean, you´re defenitely a great-flash coder etc.
It would be really sad if you won´t make more games!

I'll make more games, just not flash games (or maybe very rarely)

In 5 years or so (after college) I should be working on console games full-time.

Still be on the BBS though?

Ya, a little bit.

Sad.
Well see you later.
The only other guy from the same state as me on NG.

noes! thats too bad, but in a way, I guess its sort of good to go bigger, if you know you can do better with more advanced stuff instead of flash, then, well, you should!

good luck. :)

You mean Smash Bros, right?

And that.

(If the japanese weren't such xenophobes I'd try to get a job working on a smash bros game in the future)

T.T I loved you dammit! How could you abandon me?!?

gutted... :'(

Well that sucks :(.

Good luck with your life mine, you're an inspiration to everyone :)!

An entire year? Wow, that's a long time to not to do any flash.

If by "entire year" you mean this year, then 4 years of college, then 40 years in the working world, then yes it is a long time.

I second PinballWizard's comment.

show me yah moves

that suucckss.. :(

I miss u

Well, try not to die in the process of learning C++ and Assembly.

Lol byes.
Good luck.

=( I feel bad cuz ill be retiring in about a year =(

Good luck with C++. I'm heading towards Java fields myself.

Good luck with that. I wish I could go study at Digipen, I hear it's great there.

Hey good luck man.
The console route isn't for me, I like the simplicity of flash and being able to work as a 1 or 2 man team on a project

The simplicity of flash is great, but it just isn't practical for a lot of the inspiration I have nowadays.

Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Aye, I'll be lookin' for your name in the credits under "Programmers" when I beat the number 1 game in the future.
Till then good luck in collage and have fun. I look forward on seeing how much you improve. ^^

not if you go black, DaVeB0t.

:P
