The lovely Jade, the real-life inspiration for the purple-bowed girlfriend, will be coming on to write articles pertaining to some of the issues being addressed in the strip, such as commitment, break-up, and whether or not one can be friends with an ex-significant other. Since I myself am not very good at encouraging discussion (since I tend to agree with everyone), Jade has elected to step in and spearhead exactly that. You can check out her blog here as well.
In other news, last semester in our introductory Flash class our final project was completely open-ended in the sense that we could make anything we want, as long as it applied all the things we learned during the semester. Although I already was fairly familiar with basic animation, I was absolutely illiterate when it came to the Flash Actionscript language, so it was all new to me. The end result was a short introductory ‘demo’ for a proposed Cheer Up, Emo Kid flash game. The premise was it would be a point-and-click RPG adventure of sorts, and in the tradition of Andrew Hussie’s MS Paint Adventures, I was hoping I could integrate some sort of user-interactivity where readers could continue the story by deciding what the character would do next.
Well anyway, let me know what you think of it so far — also, it ends when his mom comes into the room, just to let you know in case. . . like, you sit and stare for hours waiting for something to happen.

That was amazing!
If you need any beta testers I would love to help out…
It actually took me a few minutes to realize it was over when the mom came…
I was a little sketchy on the idea at first…
I wanted an animation…
But you were able to translate the humor really well!
Can't wait for more!
boz,
yo i keep getting stuck playing this game. i pick up the key and try to unlock the drawer but everytime i try to put the key on the drawer to initiate the unlocking of it, zeke throws the damn key at the drawer and when you try to pick it up the idiot trips. And then you pick up the key but I can't seem to click on anything else but the painting which does nothing lol..
you click on the cupboard again, so that he unlocks it
*blink*
ROFL I love this game!! I can't wait to play it in full
AHHAHAYahHAhaHAhA
Satanic Ritual ftw
nice game! this is really something.
*I hear what?*
I hear MORE!!! MORE!!! MORE!!!
I love it.
Mindless Self Indulgence music? Fuck yes.
Also, I loled when I tried to open the drawer and instead, threw the key at the cupboard.
You sah, are quite clevah.
And now, to sharpen my katana in preparation for the inevitable duel with lvl 80 MOTHER.

I'd prefer a straight adventure to an adventure/rpg combo…
it looks like it's a straight adventure game in the making.
and msi fan? fuck yeah!
Man, it's awesome !
It reminds me of old Sierra -quest series. ;o)

Demo was engaging and satisfying and funny.
Point click adventures normally make me bored, keep it up in this style.

Feeling bored, I go to listen Brain Adams – Please Forgive Me
That was good. Very funny, original and just great! Well done. If you need help beta-testing let me now
I have a feeling the game’s narrated by that grey-text know-it-all.. Frank was it?
Amazing. Confusing at first, but kickass.
@Rinna: CORRECT! You win the awesome prize of awesomeness!
That prize better be a cookie; i have a craving.
that waz the best part of my day
Bro!! I love your comics and this demo, its awesome youve got to finish this. I <3 it.
Been a while… You almost made this a full version game? (*). (*) me wants to play it so badly <:D
Haha, I would so play a full version of this game.
I wish I had the option to type in some of my own commands though, like “jump out window”.
lol who throws a key at a cupboard?fun game
[...] Hint: I made THIS for my final project for Flash class (nothing amazing, but I’m still thinking baby steps). And don’t forget THIS. [...]
Hahahaha, that was amazing!
I’m really impressed, Enzo – keep it up. ( :
I LOVE IT!! You must make more.
Yeah took me a bit to realize the game was over when the mum came home. I wanted to duel her. . . XP
Oh man, I was playing that demo just cracking up so bad. That was hilarious and fun. It just totally made my morning.
Hey. Anyone knows what song was playing in the background? It was nice… But not as cool as throwing key at cupboard.
haha real good.the satanic ritual music is wicked.CAN’T WAIT 4 MOAR!
That was hilarious. I love how hmm, how should i put this? how ‘DUUUH’ it was (i.e. tripping over the cupboard to get the key) and how random it was (satanic ritual lol)
Great job, keep it up
