HelixFTW: Ezmir Version 1 Release

Happy Holidays!!!

Allow me to formally introduce the second character on the HelixFTW roster: Ezmir!

 To those of you who are unfamiliar, Ezmir was an earlier character from the origina...

End o' November

So I have to admit, progress hasn't exactly been as smooth or as quick as I'd have liked this month. Originally, we wanted to get Ezmir's first build out the door by the end of this month- preferably today- but that just isn't viable at the moment. So, here's where we're at, and what we're thinki...

Mid-November: Ezmir Going Forwards

So there's been a bit of discussion between Serk and I about how to release updates for characters moving forwards.

Helixftr was messy, and fairly simple- I would do a bit of work on a character, and just sort of throw it out to the public, full of whatever warts and unfinished edges it mig...

Helixftw in November: Moving Forwards

October was crazy productive. We managed to get Wolfo done, and now I'm finally excited to show y'all what, and who, we'll be working on next!

And next up, assuming nothing goes terribly wrong in the process, will be a returning character from the original Helixftr: Ezmir, the Burrow...

HelixFTW: Wolfo Release!

It's been a really busy month! Y'all blew us away with the reception to the demo, thank you all so much for such an amazing response. We've been hard at work polishing and finalizing Wolfo as a character, getting him to a point where we feel he's really finished and rounded out. Now he's finished...

Mid-month Helixftw Check-in

So, it's been a couple weeks since Helixftw's demo was released! I do hope y'all have enjoyed it a lot.

I do want to address something real quick: Since the game's release, I have seen the rise of the all-too-familiar "You should x" comments. I want to state that, beyond bug reports,...

Helixftw Demo Update

Howdy again! Wow, the release of the demo was met with a ton of fanfare, y'all have been really positive about it! So we've spent the last week polishing what we've gotten, updating and fixing bugs people have reported, and the demo's in a much better spot now.

-Fixed Wolfo not aiming at He...

HelixFTW Going Forwards

It's insane it hasn't even been a week since HelixFTW's was released. Time's stuck in this crazy place between weeks feeling like no time at all but also incredibly long at the same time.

Since HelixFTW's release, Serk and I tried to take a short break but found that neither of us are reall...

New Project: HelixFTW Demo

A project a few months in the making! New stories for our favorite sword-toting kobold adventurer! Welcome to HelixFTW!

HelixFTW is a collaborative effort between myself and Serkular, who you may know for having created the Rainworld Hungry Lizards mod. It's a successor to Helixftr, a v...

Barbftr Working Files

Yeah so I absolutely forgot to include my Barbftr work along with the Helixftr stuff. These are less than what I did in Helixftr, though I did probably go through and do more experimental stuff here. Most notable are the two CV related dragons and all the mumbo jumbo I ended up doing with variabl...

Helixftr 9.9.2024 End of the Road Update

HELLO!

Howdy y'all! For any of you that didn't catch the last update I posted here, I am officially calling it quits with Helixftr and Flash and moving on to greater horizons in the exciting world of 3D. What this means is that I'm going to go ahead and do a final release of all the stuff I...

September Update and Clarification

Howdy folks! It's been a little bit, as it always has been. July was kind of a stinker when it came to productivity but August was BUSY! I feel like I spent more time in Blender in August than I did out...

Helixftr 2.27.2024 Update (Fixed?)

So the last update apparently had more than a couple problems- I checked it over and some things weren't making sense to me. Folks were saying Yesenia wasn't in it despite absolutely being included- which makes me assume there was some issue with the game loading the characters, likely because I ...

Helixftr 2.6.2024 Update

Hey it's been a *while* since I've released on of these, oops.

This contains all the WIP's and finished characters I've got right now- or it *should*, at least.

The big inclusion here is Harrien of course, but there have been more than a few tweaks here and there on older characters a...

February Updatery-Doo

===Helixftr===

I don't really like making updates when there's no a lot to say; I'd rather come bearing some actual things to be interested in than popping around saying "Oh, sorry, there is no news about Helixftr today."

So I'm glad to announce that there is some news for Helixftr to...

The Welcome to November Update

Howdy folks! Been a minute.

This past month I haven't been doing a whole lot of 2D animating or poking at Flash in general. Helixftr as a whole has kind of been put to the side for a bit...

End of August Update: Where's the Beef?

Hey everyone! Just putting up a post to let you know that I've had more of a rhythm lately on my work and I have actually been putting updates up on the discord. You may have also noticed me p...

Oh Goodness it's almost the end of May

So this isn't going to be much of a monthly report, I'll keep it short and simple and try to say more Soon.

So, to any that haven't been on the Discord, the reason I've been so quiet lately is that I've been working on a Special Character that I'm planning to release this weekend, if all th...

Monthly Report: December 18th, 2022

Happy Holidays! I absolutely despise the end of the year, as everyone tries to cram months worth of missed interaction into such a super short span of time.

So, what's new? First of all,...

Monthly Report: November 23, 2022

Oooohh boy.

This month hasn't had a whole lot going on, honestly; a lot of my focus has gone towards my 3D work and learning how to model. But, I have still poked at animating here and there. Prima...

Monthly Report: October 23rd, 2022

I feel like I've been working and working and not really getting much of anywhere. I've no idea how that works, but that seems to be where I am.

Anyway, so the primary bulk of my work as of late, I...

Monthlyish Report: September 12th???

How is it September?? How is it ALMOST HALFWAY THROUGH SEPTEMBER??? 

Honestly I've been holding off on making a monthly report for a while now, primarily because the draw to animate has been especially slow and low for a while now. Most of my work as of late has kind of been...

Monthlyish Report: June 17th, 2022

Alright, so this one will probably be pretty quick; now that a variety of life circumstances have passed and I'm significantly less stressed out in general, I can fiiiiinally get back to work proper on Helixftr stuff.

The problem there becomes, I'm pretty torn on where to go from here. Ther...

Helixftr: Sholstim Release!

(Posted it everywhere else besides here, whoops x3x)

(Copy and pasted blatantly from the FA post!)

Oof, how is it June already. How is that possible? I feel like I blinked and 6 months flew by, and honestly I feel like I've done some really decent animation work but it barely feels li...

(Mini Update) Monthly Update: Coming Soon

Gunna keep this short- last month I neglected to do a monthly update because it basically would have just been "Sholstim's almost done and I'll figure the rest out beyond that."

Well, Sholstim's done now (Should I have made a post here for that? Hmm.)

Which means that I get to decide ...

I wouldn't say that work's slowed down, I just haven't really been working in the directions I really probably should have been.
