It's time for another round of Know Your Temps! The Temp being questioned during this session is .TakaM!

For those of you that are new to the game, here are the rules:

---> One user will be put on the questioning stand every two days. Users may sign-up/volunteer for each weekly spot [but more on that later].

---> Once that user's week of questioning starts anybody can ask that user any 3 questions they want via posting on the thread. These questions can be about anything. Personal life, GBATemp/internet life, pet peeves, musical tastes, "what if" situations... ANYTHING! (Please post all 3 of your questions at once, in one solid post)

---> Upon receiving questions, the user that is in the spotlight can answer them at anytime, as long as it's before their week is up.

This quirky little activity will help us get to know our fellow Tempers even better in an exciting, chaotic manner!

.TakaM's session begins 2-28-07 and ends the night of 3-1-07.

1) How much do you love clouds?

that is all.

 

"Time for the cross examinatin, Mr. Wright! Will you question the witness?"

"Yes, your honor."

"So, Mr. .TakaM, lets start. On a scale of one to ten, how tastey do you think human blood is?"

"Nuber 2, what type of car do you most wish you owned?"

"And number 3, do you fear death?"

"The prosecution has no more questions, your honor."

 

1) How many fingers do you use while typing?
I use all ten

2) What is your favorite color of food?
favourite colour.. at the moment it would be green (vegetables)

3) Your profile says you are in New Zealand. What happened to Old Zealand?
old zealand (usually referred to as "beta zealand") had various glitches and bugs, new version came out and fixed those problems, thats all

4) How much do you love clouds?
I was thinking about replying with some analogy or metaphor, but nah.. I really do love clouds, mostly from an artistic point.
the sky always has some good designs

5) How long had you been thinking about the game idea BEFORE starting it?
about a year ago I just felt like there were no quality games, so I replayed yoshis island, super metroid, link to the past, seiken densetsu 3, cave story, LBA1 and 2.
And once I was done playing and replaying those games, I was left with lots of good ideas that I just kept polishing in my head until I thought I had enough of it planned out, made a ton of graphics I'd need for a demo and found a good coder.. I spent around 6 months going over my ideas before making it a reality pretty much

6) How long ago did you start it?
started around may last year

7) What is your favourite game and why?
I have quite a few for each genre.. but to pick one.. would be super metroid.
such a well built game, you can play it in any way you want if you're good enough, such a perfect engine, perfect gameplay, excellent level design, enemies, music.. and it has a few glitches that actually help the game, most of them are quite hard to do but are worth the effort in select cases.
A timeless game that will always be a classic

8) On a scale of one to ten, how tastey do you think human blood is?
I'd say around a 3. my leg was bleeding a few days ago and I couldn't be bothered to get some tissues, so I just licked the blood off my hand

9) what type of car do you most wish you owned?
I'm not really that interested in cars, infact I'm 18 and I haven't even started thinking about my license But I've always been a fan of that 70's show and always thought the vista cruiser ruled

10) do you fear death?
tough question, I actually started several different sentences but I can sum them all up with "not really"

11) When doing your fantastic pixel art, do you do everything on the pixel level, or do you work big, then scale down and correct?
nope , there are a few times where I'd sketch a tree down on paper, then scan it and pixel over it on another layer, but other than that I always just start off with the pixel art approach and follow through till I'm done

 

12) is there a site for your pixel art and do u do requests?
I do have a website:
http://takam.wordpress.com/
and I don't really do requests anymore, mostly commissioned work

13) south or north island?
south island, Christchurch

14) what do u mainly use your flashcart for? (movies,music,homebrew,etc)
I'd say it's about even, I play a few roms, there isn't much homebrew Im very interested in, but there are a few that I play a lot, and I do watch a lot of movies on my R4, more than I expected I would, Ive converted a lot of movies and TV episodes I have.. which I have around 300GB's lol

 

1) Have you ever dreamt of pixels?

2) Have you made a pixel version of yourself?

3) Live 10 years longer (without aging physically) or owning a talking dog (multilanguage )?

4) If you were a gamesprite, which one would it be?

5) Horror or Sci Fi?

 

Q:What are some of the commissions you ahve done, any big things, Links?

Q:how does one do pixel art, im interested, pixel by pixel in something like photoshop, maybe an explanition of the process?

Q:I have been thinking about getting a GBAtemp crew together for a while to make a game (maybe homebrew) what are your thought about this, intertested in a DS collaboration?

Qnly 18 huh, are you studying or just living off freelance pixel art?

Qn average how long would it take to make some of your work, lets say your avatar for example.

thats about all, i really love your work man.

 

I've been wanting to have a full-body pixel version of myself for some time now.

Here's some questions though:
For a kinda-thin 4'11" girl;
1) How long would it take?
2) How much would it cost?

 

30) What was the very, very, very first piece of pixel art you ever did (and do you still have it to show us? )
31) Are you sick of answering questions about pixel art yet?
32) You said you don't drive, so train, bus, bike, fly or bum a lift off a friend?
