Advent Calendar: Let's Play 24 games!

He actually mentioned at the start that he owed "Bass" for pretty much everything. The name was a link that lead here.
Anywho!

The last losers we'll have to face!



She certainly looks like one, but no. She claims to be a magical girl (with tiny bat wings ...?).
.... And no lower body.
Needless to say she gets insulted and tossed out, though doesn't get hurt because she has no sad sprites. Minor victory for you, girlie!


Uh... Evidently. She claims to be "normal Chunners" but even her name says she's zombie Chunners. She asks us to wait and leaves, so naturally Buff moves right on to the next entrant!


Oh, this should be fun.


VERY fun.

Disappointingly, though, Buff doesn't remember picking on the kid and just focuses on one thing only: Romancing this girl.
Somewhat distressingly, she's started falling for it when Chunners returns, having wanted to clean herself up to look better.


... Uh.



So much for not being a zombie, huh?
Buff kicks her straight out the window, then cries about the loss of his attempted one-night-stand target.


Ooh, pyro girl! Let's keep her, Buff!


... Nevermind.
She turns out to be a dickgirl though, so there's that.


Aw, this dragoness is kinda cute though...
... I guess she doesn't fit.


... Wait THAT'S WHAT THE AUDITIONS ARE FOR?
No wonder you keep hitting on everyone!


... No, Buff, don't.
Not saying this for your sake, but that dragon deserves better.


WOO!



Nooo, Buff, let it end!


Tom quit! Hah, there's nobody to give you more--


... Eh?


Aw, dangit... Hey Alice, why would you help him? Isn't it better to let him grieve?
... Wait, that look...
... this can't end well, can it.

We're transported back to daytime in a flash, and at once someone enters.



... You can only say one thing. Good going, Buff.



...
... please explain what you meant by "making it count"...




Evidently, "make it count" meant insulting them in the fastest and most efficient way possible.

... I'm not very surprised.


Hi Negima!



... Are you even trying anymore?
(No, no he isn't.)
Maybe he lost all interest when he realized this meant he can't bang them...

What the hell is Negi doing there?

WHY WOULD A TEN YEAR OLD EVEN WANT TO AUDITION FOR THIS?

There are a few others but nothing too interesting, then it all ends.


Yes, yes it is... Finally.


... I'm here too you ass.

But no, there's a knock on the door and someone new enters! Who is it?


I love you already.


The two swear at each other for a while, Bonussu apparently can only say one very unfortunate phrase. No guess who he learned it from.

Eventually, Buff gets fed up and kicks Bonussu out the window.



Hah! He has wings, you can't get rid of him that easily!
Oh Bonussu let me snug you. You can stay with me.


... Ohh, dear. That's not what I meant.


Buff, do you mean...


He's actually got some reservations about screwing the cute harpy gal!


... So of course his solution is to kick her out the window again!
Eh, I'll pick her up later. I already got a dog-girl to take care of, why not a birdie girl?
*Insert your own dog-cat-bird joke here*



To be fair, you were just looking to get laid.


... Ah...


... Don't put it that way... I...
I guess so.
Yeah. We're... still friends.


... He must have noticed the hesitance in my voice.

Sorry...


...
I try to think of an answer but it's clear he wouldn't listen. All I can do is nod and obey; He wouldn't like it if I stayed.


On the bright side, I got a dog and no more damn auditions to handle.
I guess I'll let him ponder his life for a while and put those kicks to good use against Nemesis later on.

Oh, and by the way!

Hello to all lurkers! Thank you for all the likes!
It's okay to come out of the woodwork you know~!

Could we see what happens if we picked other choices?

Oh, I checked. Sadly it was a false choice, the old guy complains that all of them are cheap.

But hey, it gave me an excuse to take a break from Buff Insults People: The Game, so I'm happy.

What about for the first game, then?

You'll have to play it yourself for that. :3
My job is to provide a taste, a demo of sorts, for one game every day. If I showed everything then you'd have no reason to get it yourself, right?
And besides it'd be ridiculously exhausting...

Heh... I've been reading since you started, CuteCat. I have to ask, since you've been using a lot of art in your posts... did ya draw some of those?

If so... you have an art site or two I can stalk watch? I love looking at good art.

Awesome game.
Good thing it's free.
So it's actually a kinetic novel? There's no choices other than that one, and it doesn't make any difference...

Ooh, ooh, could I recommend a game for another day? Twilight Prince Prophecy Quest Chronicles is a little bit long compared to the other games in this thread, but it's completely worth it! Fully voiced, too, with the most gorgeous art~!

Oh, uh, a few! The crying hedgehog thing, the person sitting huddled with his head in his hands, and the confetti raccoon.
I have a folder with references and stuff, so I can normally use one of those, but if I don't I pick out one of my own images to use. I have a DeviantArt account, but I rarely add anything to it since I prefer to only upload finished images. I should start uploading sketches too...
... Yeah, I'll go upload my newest sketch, I think. :3
I do also have a tumblr but it's an ask blog for my characters (I roleplay so all questions are asked by co-RPers, ahah) so it's probably not of much interest. Lots of sketches though.

Aaah, it's long? Too long is probably bad, I mean I do have to finish each game in one day and I have school during the weekdays. Sorry!

Just watched you there.

Aw. It's around ten or fifteen minutes long if you're stopping to listen to the voices and whatnot, but you know how much that stretches while you're taking screenshots. Oh well~
... AND YOUR DRAWINGS ARE SO CUTE AAAA THOSE EEEEEYES <333

Ahaha, thank you both very much! ^^

Looks awesome. Put it in my gonna play list.

I don't have a dA account, so I basically just slid your page into my Favorites list.

That said, ohmygod so cute. I love it.

Aww, thanks!
I'll try to post stuff there more frequently! :D

I think even with all the time I have spent on imgur since starting my LP I have yet to see an erudite dragon following a cute cat. That's almost a wasted opportunity.

That said, I agree; those drawings are adorable. Brb, engaging follow mode.

The main problem of my drawings is my scanner. I mean, look what it does:

Some drawing of mine on Deviantart

The color simply don't appear, or get too bright. I don't get it. My scanner is brand new!
It's better than my old one, though.

The main problem I have is that I cannot draw dynamically to save my life. Terrified as I am of mannequins that seem to be in essence what I know how to put on paper.

What do you mean dynamically? Like, making poses and expressions and stuff?

Haha, thank you~ (Aaa it feels like I'm spamming thanks now ANYONE ELSE WHO SAYS NICE THINGS ABOUT ME REFER BACK TO THIS POST AND FEEL LOVED! Wishing I had an "I LOVE YOU ALL" picture somewhere right about now!)

Ah, man. I know that feel. My brother's scanner was dirty somehow so every image got this huge weird stripe down the side that looked awful and was impossible to get rid of.

It might be that your color options aren't set properly though. Did you try looking at and messing with the settings?

Dynamically ...? What is the problem?
To me, being a bit too loose is better than being a bit too stiff. Maybe you can practice with something that has noodle-like limbs or a non-human body structure? That could help you break the "it must look this way" mindset. Don't worry if it looks bad, all art does at first (just look at my oldest deviations), just have fun!

It's hard to put into words, they just look very stiff somehow, yep, and I can't draw any sort of movement without reference. I think my main problem is I am terribly impatient. It's really not conductive with going anywhere as far as anything but minor improvements go. Doesn't help I usually don't have much time to draw these days. When I picked up a pencil because I was too sick to do anythin requiring my brain a few days back I don't think I'd touched the drawing pad for months prior to that.

Actually, I look at it a lot of times, is not a setting problem...

That's the only reason I prefer coloring virtually, but it's so boring!!! I have some virtual drawings here, most suck, but:



This one was a collab. My friend did this... um... I guess it was a boy... Well, green haired person, and I did the brown haired girl. We used a base, but I changed it a lot. And I feel like changing it more, now that I looked at it again. That chin. Much. Too. Square.

Hm... Well, it was new, right? Can't you just change it? Warranty and all.

And yeah, coloring traditionally is way more fun! My only problem there is that my touch is too light so it can end up a bit hard to see... And I can't get it to look quite even.

Besides, I like the look of the traditional one you posted -- I dunno how bad the colors were messed up, but I think it looks alright! Maybe you can add just a touch of the color that won't show digitally, to help bring it out? Otherwise I dunno what could help other than just getting a new scanner.

Maybe I'll change it. I dunno.

My coloring is dark enough for anyone to see it, but too light for the scanner to see. My scanner is fucking blind.

Oh, thank you ^^
I was trying yo draw this girl here:



In my style of drawing. And a little bit more realistic.
The colors weren't messed up that much, except the skin color, that simply vanished. I actually edited it to look better, so you can't even imagine how it's scanning was before.
The thing is... This is my new scanner doing. *sob*

EDIT - Also, the redness of her... (whatever the white part of the eye is called) is gone in the digital image too. As you can see in the original character above, it was supposed to be a little bit pink.

...I'm currently laughing my ass off at that statement, though it may take a bit to describe why...

So yeah, that statement of yours is basically describing my life XD

Hell, there's even art she did of the two of us together... though surprisingly little of it is on her dA account... I'll need to bug her to do that. Hell, for that matter I should bug her to update it in general.

I'd show art of my own... but I have the artistic skill of a concrete block,so... yeah.

Gah, somehow missed this.
As I said, try drawing something with a very loose "flow". It doesn't have to be realistic, or anything. It can be something like this...

The point is, something that you literally can't look up references to! There's no clear elbow or knee or jawline etc, and if they're gooey that makes it even easier. Draw one of those walking, and all you can know is that one paw goes in front of the other. That might help with the stiffness problem?
Otherwise, I guess the best thing you can do is to collect references for the various poses and such. I have a bunch of body language and expression references, just in case I one day get stuck and find myself unable to properly convey the look of someone holding their head, so if you can't figure out how to make something look dynamic, studying the methods others used to make theirs look dynamic might help.

Thank you! I'll definitely keep it in mind. I have a tiny sketchbook for exercises like that precisely but very tellingly it has more pages with school notes than actual work done. Still, as atrocious as my handwriting is, it sort of counts as artsy!

Most of what I did last summer ended up being very silly chibi comic poking fun at Les Misérables. Which, I guess, is a way to showcase my poor handwriting as well, so here's the first and most popular one. I hate most of the full figure stuff I have done since then, so I have uploaded nothing in ages.

So apparently there's a third game in the Buff McManly series. What.

Another one? Man, this creator was BUSY.

Do you guys want me to play that one too? Do we still love Buff after all he put us through?
I mean I did feel sort of bad about leaving...
... He's probably still gonna be an asshole though.

Ponies.
Play it.

B-but what if he kicks the ponies?

It won't matter because Pony Creator ponies SUCK.

Alright. For today's game, let's play an 18+ pony game! (... WHY)
I'm gonna either omit or spoiler anything bad, so you guys don't worry. The worst you'll see is ...
... well probably murder but ...
You won't see anything naughty! Though you will be duly warned once something happens so nobody fumbles into a porn scene blindly or something.

Does that sound good to everyone?
(By the way, yeah. He's most likely going to kick at least two ponies.)

Oh well. Sanity was fun while it lasted.

...Huh.
...
I can't find the download link. It's not on his site... And it claims to be a sequel to yesterday's game but there's nothing on it after yesterday's game's announcement...

... NEVERMIND! Can't play a game without a download after all!

THE PONIES ARE SAFE. *confetti*
