    I've been making my way through WarioWare DIY for the past week or so, absorbing the tutorials and, now, starting to make my own games. I've quickly come to terms with the notion that my art skills are going to be my downfall. I lack the patience and skill to really sit down and make good-looking characters and animation, so I've either been importing things from other games or making stuff look crappy "on purpose."

    This video, taken from the Japanese version of the game, tossed onto YouTube back in February, and sent to me earlier tonight by one Matthew Rorie, makes me wish I was a bit better with my art stylez.
      

      
    The funny thing is that when I watch that stuff, I don't see the murder and violence. All I see are the AI commands used to build it. All I see is code. I guess what I'm saying is... I'm the Neo of WarioWare DIY.
      
    Woah
    .

    Should have a review and an accompanying Quick Look for this one for you this week. Also, if you have any ideas for microgames, shoot them my way in the comments and maybe I'll try to build a couple of them. I think I've just about exhausted my "bad shooter" and "object gets crushed by well-timed tap" franchises.

    Do an RPG battle microgame, like fighting a Dragon Quest slime, or running from charred Persona 4 baby-monster...things.

    Just put about three boxes on the level. And have a stickman run across them. You have to tap the screen to make the stickman jump across the gaps between the boxes.

    Man, I really wish I had a DSi now. I would get one just for this. Do you think using a DSi XL would make creating games easier? Like, I imagine it'd help getting everything to be pixel perfect.
     
    Alright, game ideas. How about a game where you have to rapidly tap to have Dave run from Luchadeer?
     
    Or a game where you have to tap at the right moment to have Luchadeer lunge at Dave?
     
    Or maybe just tap on everyone on-screen to have them chute out or something.
     
    ...Yeah, that's all I got.

    Damnit, now I'm gonna have Keanu Reeves's voice in my head again for the next three days.

    Jeff, I would love to do art for you (hell, GB in general), but maybe after I finish this whole BFA exhibition thing (setting up on the 24th). Check out some of my animations here.

    And by "finished" I mean "you tap Chie to win." Not the most complicated microgame in the world.
