Like a Rythm Pokémon Beatemup.

I'd buy that for a dollar and a half!! ';D

I'm not sure if @TomFulp or @Mike are aware of this. But I would think if somebody on Newgrounds would know, they'd shouted it off the rooftops around here already (or maybe I just missed it? That why I'm making a post about it).

So I was messing around on my phone, trying to get a Linux distribution working on it, would seem awesome if I could run that, with Wine on my phone, so I can get my trusted old computer software, to work on my smartphone (mobile Flash-8 baby! Hell to the f*cking yeah dude!), so I can save myself a sweaty back, carrying my laptop around.

And to get all of that working, I had to get an app that functions as the Linux terminal, but the version available on the standard Google app store, wasn't working. So I had to get a different app-downloading-app, to download the version of the terminal app, wich did work. It's called F-Droid, and as soon as I opened it up, this was what immediatly caught my eye:

(The message above the donate button is in Dutch, because I am, and so was my phone, set up by default. It says: Ruffle is made by torokati44, donate a cup of coffee. I think a certain guy named Mike should be included in those credits, unless its an alias, but that's beside the point of this post.)

You may have heard of the old stupid saying, stupid people still like to tell eachother about finding love:'When you least expect it, that's when you find it'. Well, that's a big load of stinky old rotten and stomped on horsecrap, to give losers in romance/relationships (hey! That's me! ';D) some false hope, so they won't lose their marbles, or their minds.

But the saying DID follow through with finding a way to play or test swf files on my phone. There may be other swf player-apps out there, but they either don't work, work very shitty, or make you pay up the wazzoo, to find out it does or doesn't work at all. I looked around and tried a lot of different apps, but they all dissapointed.

So I downloaded the free Ruffle app, on this newly installed F-Droid store. And what did you know.....IT WORKED ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC BABY!!

I quickly downloaded some swf files, from some of my old abandoned WIP projects, from many years ago, gathering digital dust on my old dumping grounds.

I opened them up on the Ruffle app. And it just worked like a charm! And I thought that was absolutely fantastic, ya know? (Despite there not being some credit where credit is due by the app creator, but I think we can let that one slide by the sheer awesomeness in the functionality). That certainly deserves some kind of public service announcement. I may not be the right guy to make that announcement, but I haven't seen or heard anybody else talk about this.

So here I am. And there you have it, I suppose.

If anybody reading this is excited to try it out on his/her android device. Here's where I got it:

(The 'o' is the gamergril. The '*' is just a guy)

o; 'Is that a DS you're playing?' I just looo(insert some exquisitely insufferable and annoying vocal fry in between here somewhere*)oove those gamer kind of things, I'm a real gamer girl. Not like those other girls, you knoooow?'

*: 'Wow, I think I do! So you're telling me you love this thing so much, that you played it for a whole TEN SOLID MINUTES before it nearly bored you to death?'

o; 'Naaaa(Oh My God (if you're still out there sooooome,wheeeere(oooover the rainboooow...!), and if you are okay)! Please no! Not the vocal fry again!?! Please, I beg of thy!)aaaaaaah, I only played it for like... six...? I dunnooooo(ugh, the vocal fry again...good guy with a gun, just shoot me now please?)ooow? Maybe 2 minutes I guess? But I just loo(okay, this is the last time I'm doing the vocal fry dis-gag again, wich was never funny (because it was brilliant and hilarious instead) in the first place)oooove those kinda things, I'm just crazy and cool like that, you knoooOOO(hahaaah! Pow!! Gotcha biáāàtch!!! vocal fryyyyy!!!!)'.OOOÒòoow?'

*:'Yeh, ok.'

So back in ancient times, long long ago. I posted an experimental little, Ruffle teaser, to show the bunch of random doodles I made, on a good old DS, with a little naughty Flashcard in there.

Here's some of them, of some Jigglypuff stone-evolution ideas I thought of. May not do much with them, if I finish em at all. But having some good old fashioned fun, just scribbling on a few little bits at random moments.

They're at the most medium of resolutions I can export them. Because, exporting drawings on high resolution takes an eternity and a half and then some.

It's actually a quite incredibly neat little homebrew app for the good old 1st generation of Nintendo DS. If you got one, with an R4 (or any other brand of DS flashcard) card, you should absutely check it out:

Colors DS (years after that homebrew app came out, there was an official new release of it for 3DS).

(Don't blink, or you'll miss it, lol.)

'You can't have your cake and eat it too'

It's a good phrase, don't get me wrong, it's a fine way to tell people you can't always have it all. Sometimes you gotta pick one or the other.

Butt!! Here's the problem; while it's nice to make others aware, there is a choice to be made, nobody seems to bother, weighing any of the pros and cons of having versus eating.

So... Any capable wordsmiths who might come across this seemingly pointless post, help me out here will ya? Lets take this phrase most literaly, and imagine you have an actual cake, and the choice of having it, versus eating it. And lets see if we can cook up a good old fashion pros & cons list, to make a bit more sense of a certified classic of a cliché expression.

__________________________________

KEEP CAKE

+ Pros:

-Easy conversation starter "Why has that cake been there for 2 days uneaten?".

-Nice decor piece.

-Cons:

-Ants and any other bug will infest it and eat it.

& ???

-Left wondering; 'What It Will Taste Like?'.

EAT CAKE

+ Pros:

-Yummy cake.

- Cons:

-Cake is now gone. \T___T/

*Spoiler Alert for the Attack On Titan Anime*

I already read through the Manga. But I just now, started watching the grand finale of the anime.

And I really hated how, one of my favorite chicks of the franchise, Hange Zoe, got shafted near the end of it all. Just stalling time, by heroically throwing herself into a crowd of Collossall Titans. Taking a few down with her, to stall some time for the rest of the main crew.

It seemed like a stupid and pointless sacrifice in two pages of the manga. Butt, in the anime, she went down in a massive blaze of glory.

The grand Falcon Punch moment, aint got NUTHIN on this scene bruh!

Okay, they're not legit sprites from a 2D game, they're just screenshots, taken in an emulator, running Smash Bros Melee, with the backgrounds turned off, and the camera at set distance.

The character is also not symetrical, with that one weird shoulder piece. So the captain will look weird when turned the other way.

But I still think it's a funny thing to play around with, for any sprite animator, have a looksie and play around with it if it seems fun to use! ':D
