    Update: I'm now full steam ahead on pitching This Game of Mine as an original animated series!

    NOTE TO ARTISTS: I'm seeking portfolio submissions 👀👀👀 Please scroll to the bottom for more info!

    hewo gamers, figured I'd update with some big news! Now that I have a couple years as a producer in the animation industry under my belt, the chances of TGOM becoming an actual original cartoon have risen dramatically.

    a few of my visual inspirations for Eternity

    i've privately received a few questions over the years about what Eternity looks like, so i'm making public one of my responses to one of them for anyone who was curious. it's mostly just compiled references, but it'll give a good idea of the aesthetic i was going for.


    1: What is the tech level for Eternity. Is it the same as Destiny, or just a little below it?

life update · 8:32pm Aug 29th, 2021

hi everyone, just checking in! i recently became a producer at nickelodeon, and life has been moving very fast. i know i haven’t even come close to updating or finishing tgom, but because of my new job i don’t think i’ll be getting around to it anytime soon.

but i still think about tgom every day. it’s a story that’s really near and dear to my heart, and i’ve been thinking of ways to keep it going.

more than once i’ve thought about turning it into an original work. i’d have to fix a LOT of things (the first half is quite clumsy, and the second half is very chonky), and redo the entire setting so that it makes sense outside the context of MLP, but so far it’s been a consistent thought of mine.

the dream would be to turn it into a television pitch and have it be picked up by a network or a major streaming service, haha. now that i'm in at a studio, it might even be possible!

we’ll see what the future holds!

Nice to hear from you regardless. How's being a producer?

Congratulations!

Congratulations on becoming a producer! We'll still be here and waiting. Good luck! (And it would be awesome for us to see if this does become an actual show, as we would have seen its first version!)

Swan Song presents, "Fairly Odd Parents: This Game of Mine".

With... Trixie Tang for Silver's role. Or maybe Sweetie's, but the fit isn't quite as good (even if Silver's role isn't a perfect fit either).

You're in a studio, what kind? :twilightblush:

Way to go, dude!
And it would be an interesting idea to turn into a television show, multilayered so kids or teens see a story about long distance friendships started through a game (which should be relatable enough with the current generation), while adults see a deeper layer regarding education, sociology and politics.
Make a point to include your characters having Zoom meetings, both for team bonding and just to hang out, though. I do think it is important for friends to see each others faces every now and then, and for parents to be able to see the faces of their kids' online friends.

Glad you're doing what you love. n_n

Good for you! Glad to hear you're doing well :twilightsmile:

Nice to see you're still around! Hope all is well for you! Gods I remember talking to you back when Her Knight in Faded Armor was a thing :)
