Hey, look over here!



Fri, Mar 5- Ow ow ow
Hey, folks, I kinda got a bastard of a stomachache goin' here, so if you don't mind I'm just gonna post this real quick and writhe on my bed for a couple of hours. Toodles!

Discovery
Fri, Feb 26 - Updated!
Howdy, folks! Got another update for y'all. Quick question, how many of you out there are Doctor Who fans? You? You? I see another hand, that's three... hmmmm. Well, sorry about that for the rest of you, but here it comes, another scorching Doctor Who-themed strip!

Cyberman

Yet Another Game
Lately it's seemed like this site is the Bob the Angry Flower/random web-based game blog, but I can't help myself. I work at a game company and I come into contact with games that arouse my interest. This week it's Infectontor! World Dominator, found at Kongregate, made by, I guess, Toge Productions. It's a rather goofy-looking, pixel art game in which you are tasked with destroying the world zombie-style. Maybe it's the charm of the pixely art, maybe it's the world map, maybe it's the slow grind of infecting people with zombieism and slowly upgrading your zombies and unlocking wacky Santa zombies and Ronald McDonald zombies and Colonel Sanders zombies, but I played the crap outta this thing. Perhaps you will too!

Fri, Feb 17 - Zzzzz...
Sorry, folks. I don't have any super awesome unicorn games for you this week, and I'm sorta sleepy from too much drinking last night so it's gonna be a quickie this week, like so.

Sporting
15 in 15
Well, I guess I'm not entirely done. There is the matter of the 15 in 15 Cartoon Challenge currently underway over at Chamber of Comics. It's kinda like the 30 in 30 deal we did last year except contestants must deliver a comic every day on the day. The field has widened considerably since last time, featuring eight whole toonists with skin in the game. Mine are quite bad, certainly no Cracker Comix, but some of the others are works of arch genius. Check 'em out if you dare.

Fri, Feb 12 - Dandelion
I was going to start this update with a whole dance and song about how readers of this week's cartoon

Laseramen

could learn more about the wondrous mysteries of noodle by looking at Tampopo, a superb Japanese movie that's out of print on DVD but currently resides on YouTube. Then I went looking for the YouTube link and realized the complete movie version is subtitled in German. Sorry, folks. Still a great movie, though.

Robot Unicorn Attack
I'm a well-known unicorn partisan but even I did not expect the hypnotic power of RUA. Two buttons. I have yet to beat 30,000. Waitaminute--I just did! Yeaaaahhhhh! Take THAT, crystal stars!

Fri, Feb 5 - Time After Time
The Nicholas Myer movie, actually, rather than the Cyndi Lauper song, though I can see how you could make that mistake. No, they're two entirely different things, connected only by name and me liking them, the song more than the movie -- but not by much.

Painless
Fri, Jan 29 - That Was Fun
January 2010, I mean. Not too bad. Okay, sure, it was pretty disheartening to have my brand new Christmas jacket stolen, and I could have done without a few of the other random failures and humiliations I endured this month, but overall... actually, yeah. January 2010 kinda sucked.

But we don't have to worry about that for too much longer, and hey, the weather's been nice!

Skaaaaaarks
Fri, Jan 22 - Into the ohTens
Well now we're in and let's do it. Let us put aside our failed resolutions from the oh-nines, let us stop pretending we'll be better now, this year, just cuz it's got a round delicious fat zero on the end, let us just get to work.

In that here is yet, amazingly, preposterously, ridiculously and above all stupidly, another Bob the Angry Flower cartoon.

Lycanthrope
Folks about and around, do enjoy! It's up to you!

Quick note: I wrote the comic badly. It should be obvious to go from the first panel to the panel underneath and then to the right, but I've read it enough times to know that it's all too easy to go from upper-left to upper-right. No. Upper left first, then down, then across, then easily down and left to right in the classic Western style. Sorry for messing up the flow, folks. I thought I knew better!
Fri, Jan 15 - Arg, Dimensions!
I'd seen Avatar before the holidays. I was appalled. But, as I hasented to inform, I hadn't seen it in 3D.

Now I have, and I ... like it better. My hate has been turned into, if not love, at least a warm sympathy. A rare change, I assure you!

Anyway, enough about anything, a new strip awaits.

Fri, Jan 8 - Jimeny Twenty-Ten!
Hey, y'all, welcome back! Looks like life goes on upon our quaint dirtball, another spin around the star we all love and cherish so much. At least for now!

So! Hope you folks all had a good New Year's! I did, or at least I'm confident I did even if most of my confidence comes from my knowing I was too drunk to actually remember my New Year's moment. But there speaks the tale, I say!

Anyway, new year, head down, work to do, let's get at it. So, here's last year's cartoon

Babies

followed swiftly by this year's first cartoon, a terrible effort going shamefacefuly by the name

Burger-Making
Mon, Dec 21 - Buh-Bye, '09
Yep, another year, another departure to Edmonton for out-hanging with family and friends. Thus, this is the last post of the year, and while I'd love to get all weepy and sentimental about it, I've got a plane to catch. Later, folks!

Vixen's Lament
Fri, Dec 18 - WORK
It's work to put this update together. It's, like three in the morning and I'm drunk and typing on my keyboard trying to make an update happen. Now I know you, my fans, my readers, would never want me to be forced to exert myself in any circumstance, and I thank you for that. Nonetheless, time's a-tickin and I simply don't have the option of not having an update. So, is there a cartoon?

Kaons

Seems there is.

What left for 09? Quick runup crashpile to the end of the year and then we all flail through 2010? Sounds fun! Hope y'all are ready!
Fri, Dec 11 - Earlies
I'm putting together this update early because I've signed onto PopCap's Game Jam challenge beginning yesterday Thursday 10 am. We who've stood ourselves will be pushed, filed, stamped, briefed, debefried and numbered. We will then be given a game name around which to create a game. We'll have 24 hours to accomplish this task. I expect to blow it out in four hours and retreat the rest for drinking. Nonetheless, just in case game-making takes more than 4, 8, 12 or 16 hours, I wanna make sure y'all get your regular scheduled update. As so:

Unprecedented

Fri, Dec 4 - Chill
It was cold but dry in Edmonton a week ago. It's cold and dry in Seattle this very moment. This is strange and brings to mind questions about global climate, local weather patterns and personal outerwear decisions. I have to ask: is it time for gloves? Do they still make those?

Regardless, this week's strip presents a hydraulic challenge never to be equalled or surpassed.

Floop

Chamber of Comics
The epic 30 in 30 cartoon challenge continues apace over at Chamber of Comics, all contestants busting varying quantities of anus in order to provide you, the indiscriminate comics fan, some food for your funnygut. Please enjoy at your leisure.

A Random Video about LSD & Baseball
At work I sometimes am exposed to amusing trivia and minutia with which I can lighten the steps we all take towards death. Here, then, is a delightful Flash-animated video by No Mas and James Blagden about Dock Ellis's celebrated 1970 LSD-infused major league no-hitter. Enjoy it, not at your leisure, but NOW!
Fri, Nov 27 - Nervous
Not about anything in particular, mind you. It's a more generalized thing, something... elusive. Perhaps it's just that everything's all a whack these days, and how can you really trust or believe in anything when it's

Olives Against Olive Oil

Chamber of Comics
So an old Gateway cartooning colleague Mike Winters runs a blog called Chamber of Comics. He challenged himself and Fish Griwkowsky (Zardex.com) to draw 30 comics in 30 days. After some hesitation I also jumped in. So, folks, 30 in 30 is ON. Check out Chamber of Comics for some hilarious cartoon tales as well as some I did.

Fri, Nov 20 - DXs and also DYs
Sorry for being so frazzlebrained lately, folks. I've been trying to learn coding and Flash Actionscript 2.0 all at the same time, so my mind is cluttered with sprite._x and sprite.dy values and trying to apply what splintered shards remain from my trigonometric learning to make those values dance. Plus I've been drinking gin.

But who cares of that? All you guys want is another cartoon. So here is one.

Venlusian

notSense
So here's a taste of my madness, if'n anybody is interested.
All States: The mouse moves the Reticle around.
State 1: Ball chases the Reticle. Click to go to State 2.
State 2: Ball stops chasing the Reticle. Click to go to State 3.
State 3: Ball shoots at Reticle and bounces around. Click to return to State 1.

Click to transition between three states!
Fri, Nov 13 - Whoops!
It's totally Friday morning and I completely forgot to do the update! Let's rectify that, AT ONCE!

Spamb!
