My Wall-E Game Sequel

Back in the Fall of 2008, I was busy looking for a job. I was still unemployed. The independent gaming site that I was active with when I was in high school and 1st half of college just underwent renovation and finally opened. There was a Sci-Fi game contest. The rules were that you make the game from scratch. It didn't matter what copyrights were infringed. So I decided to make a 2D version of WALL-E.

Nyan Cat - Phase 2 - Abdomen/Lower Body

So I got to working on the poptart part of my costume. I started last week and I finished it just now.

Is It Worth It?

I've been in my current job for 3 months now. Compared to my last one, it's less stressful. Sure, there was that stressful Memorial Day weekend. And you know what? I didn't get burned. I was able to attend my friend's birthday party and still managed to support a major application deployment to the client.

I was hoping for a job that would have me programming code. But you can't be too picky about jobs these days. You also don't want to undersell yourself. My job now is just the right balance. I'm doing IT Analysis/App. Support Specialist work for our client. Just like the last one, I came in to work with no prior knowledge of what the job entails. I learned everything on the get go hands-on and through teleconferencing. You might say that I have it easy, but it's not. I MAKE it look easy.

Nyan Cat Project - Material Gathering

So I'm slowly gathering all the materials needed for this project. The idea is not to make an exact replica of the Nyan Cat

So far, I've narrowed down what I exactly need and made some changes on my original list.

Nyan Cat Project

I'm sure most of you have heard or seen the Nyan Cat video/phenemenon (doot doooo do do doo). I've thought about this long and hard (TWSS), and I've decided that I'm going to make this my project for Otakon. Besides dressing up as a drunk version of Colonel Roy Mustang...
