Survey #242

“i don’t miss you, i miss the misery.”

How many pairs of converse shoes do you own? Hm... three or four? Any other names your parents planned to give you? The only one I *think* I remember is Katelyn. Thank fuck I dodged that bullet. Which is the most beautiful place you know? The mountains between NC and TN, if I remember correctly. I was very young. What do you work with? I don't work period & I hate it. Have you ever hit an animal with your car? Thank Christ no. Favorite ride at the amusement park? I guess ferris wheels. Favorite beauty essential in your bathroom cabinet? I don't have a "favorite" considering I don't use any regularly. Do you have many followers on your Tumblr? Nah. Do you tan easily? I burn like toast, man. Are you expecting something in the mail? No. Do you inspire others? Idk. What do you collect? Meerkat stuff and Silent Hill merch. Do you like cats? Hell yes!!! Are you healthy? If you excuse my weight and muscle atrophy, I'm actually pretty healthy, according to a billion tests I've gotten done when trying to discover *why* I had such awful pain in my legs. Have you ever been out of state? Yeah. Can you always blame your acts on that you were just too drunk? Fuck no. Three things you try to avoid as much as possible: Well dying lmao, getting hurt, public speaking. How many times have you been overseas? Zero. Do you use to have someone in mind when shopping for underwear? Wait what the fuck- What accent do you have? I don't really have one, although I do have a southern tone with some words sometimes I suppose. I also do say things like "y'all" or "fixing to (do something)," so I use some Southern terminology. Where would you like to live? The mountains of western NC. Sigh. Do you follow fashion? No. Do you have a big butt? Ever heard of Hank Hill Ass Syndrome? I have Hank Hill Ass Syndrome. Your worst job nightmare is: Customer service EVER again. Who’s the coolest rapper in the world? Idk and idc. Do you count how long you and your gf/bf have been together? I mean yeah, I think anniversaries are worth celebration. Healthy relationships aren't always easy to maintain; to remain in love takes forgiveness, loyalty, dedication... all that. It shouldn't be hard, but it takes effort. Have you graduated? High school, anyway. Rihanna or Lady Gaga? Lady Gaga, definitely. Do you use fake eyelashes? No. What’s your worst interior design nightmare: I dunno. Probably just being very crammed? What makeup brands do you use? I don't have any particular ones; I don't wear makeup enough. What’s the worst kind of rejection you could give someone? I genuinely feel it to be how Jason did so with me. Three and a half years in a very serious relationship, and he out of the blue breaks up with me over Facebook because my depression became "too much." Like by NOW I understand I can't shame him for wanting to be happy, but the way he did it was fucking cruel and tore me apart. Like especially when this person was your refuge from daily pain and pretty much your god and future (never make someone that, holy holy HOLY shit don't), that individual just suddenly having enough and breaking contact off like that was emotional murder. Do you have a crush on someone right now? Well yeah, but it's like... a "tamed" one? Is that an accurate word? Like I understand it just can't work right now, but it doesn't stop me from liking her. Is there anyone that many people think is hot, but you don’t? I'm sure there's someone. Do you sort and organize your clothes in some kind of way? Sorta. When somebody intimidates you, how do you usually act around them? Nervous, skittish, more awkward than usual. Is your favorite singer in a band or does he or she ride solo?

Yeah, Mom still has some up lmao. How often do you wear chapstick? Only when my lips are actually chapped. Do you walk around your house with your shoes on or do you take them off? Definitely off. What is the weirdest obsession you’ve ever had? Collecting stickers, maybe? How many of the seven deadly sins have you fulfilled today? Sloth is on the daily lmao, gluttony, and lust. Should guys always kiss the girl on a first date? Not always, of course not. It depends on the comfort level, and I would ALWAYS ask first. Which band has the corniest music videos? Corniest lyrics? I don't really watch music videos, and idk about lyrics. What subject is/was hardest for you in school? Math. Have any songs ever inspired you to play an instrument? No. Do you ever use Pandora? No. Are you better with creative writing or writing essays? I think I'm good at both, but I probably excel in creative writing. When was the last time you were rick rolled? No clue. What is the weirdest animal you’ve ever seen as a pet? Seen, I guess a chinchilla, though that's not really "weird." If you had to change one, would you rather change your hair or your eyes? Eyes. When was the last time you had a ‘she-mergency’? I had to look this up to be certain what that even was lmao. Probably some time I started my period at school and had to use folded toilet paper or something for a while. Which sounds creepier: sleeping in the attic or the basement? I'd say it depends on the make-up of each and its cleanliness. What was your favorite computer game as a kid? I think it was called The Amazon Trail 3? It was a damaged disc however, so it froze a lot. I think I only finished it once or twice; even knowing it would likely crash, I just liked playing it as far as I could. Have you ever tried on your mom’s wedding ring? No. Any shows on TV that you flat out refuse to start watching? 13 Reasons Why, to name perhaps the #1. What is your opinion on fruitcake? NO. Here’s a tough one. Would you rather marry your cousin or a dog? Oh fuck off, neither. Who did you last dream about? I can't remember what it was about, but I know Mark was in it lmao. Do you have trouble remembering important things? Sometimes. My memory is atrocious. Which animal can you imitate the best? Audibly? Probably a cat. Which is harder - walking in the snow or sand? Sand. I FUCKING hate walking through sand. It's one reason I don't like the beach. Do you like sour candy? oml YES. If anyone, who did you sit with at lunch today? N/A Have you gotten any injuries lately? If so, what and how? Not anything I can remember. Are you a clumsy person? You have no idea. How about disorganized? I'm oddly split down the middle. Last male you talked to in person? My dad. Have you ever had a sunburn? Oh boy, I've gotten past that. Try sun poisoning. Are you thinking about asking anyone out? No. Pink lemonade or regular lemonade? PINK! Chocolate or strawberry milk? Oh boy, chocolate. I tried strawberry as a child and absolutely loathed it beyond words known to man, and I will not be giving it a second chance. I remember it pristinely. Disgusting. What volume is the ringer on your phone? It's on vibrate. Have you ever won a contest on the radio? No. Do you often write on yourself? I never do, 'less we're talking about tattoos lol. Is there writing on the shirt you are currently wearing? No. Frosted flakes or frosted mini wheats? I hate the latter, so I guess frosted flakes, though I don't really remember how they taste.

I've actually never had Thai food. How about Indian food? Same as above. Have you ever tried sushi? No. In your opinion, who would be the best president? I don't know.

Do you wear actual designated ‘pajamas’ to bed? Pj pants and a tank top. When was the last time you were tempted to do something you’d later regret?

Well, not current best friend, but a former one. How many times did you ride in a car today? Zero. Are you comfortable in your own skin? Fuck no. What's absolutely splendid is even when/if I lose the weight I aim to, I'm going to have loose skin that literally might make me hate my body more until I without argument muster up the money to get it surgically removed. Are you in a good mood right now? I'm alright. When was the last time you had an ice cream cone? Been quite a while. Did you eat breakfast this morning? Yeah, had some cereal. Have you ever been in a cemetery at midnight? No. Do you live on your own? No. I don't even think I could tolerate living alone because of my depression and how loneliness can severely trigger it. I'm realistically probably not moving out until it'll be with an s/o. If not, who do you live with? I live with my mom, my sister's dog, and my cat and snake. How old are your siblings, if you have any? I have a lot, and I don't know the ages of all of them, only my two immediate sisters: 26 and 21. Have you ever had a crush on a sibling’s friend? No. Have you donated blood in the last 2 years? No. What was the last free t-shirt you received from? School. Is there anything you are looking forward to at the moment? February 4th, baby. Tattoo gets fixed up by an artist I like far more. Him not having an open booking until then should say enough. Are you an atheist? No. Are you Asian? No. Are you fluent in another language? No. Are you in the military? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Are you an artist? Not professional, but I enjoy making art. Are you a musician? No. Are you an athlete? Oh, hunny- Do you have a favorite flower? I really like orchids. Where was the last place you went that was more than an hour away? Great question... The trip to my therapist is about an hour, but not over. Why were you going there? For therapy. Who was the last person to tell you you looked nice? Probably Mom, idk. Have you ever been to a nude beach? Hell no, I wouldn't even if I was in great shape. How many websites do you have an account for? WHEW I have no idea, A LOT over all the years. Have you ever paid for any kind of online membership? Well, WoW is an online game, so a subscription, though because I obviously don't have my own money, I'm sadly rich enough in the game to use monthly tokens. Do you try clothes on before you buy them? Not always. I try to avoid it because I just hate doing it. What would you do if you knew a robber was in your house? Well I obviously don't know how I'd react on impulse, but I'd imagine myself locking my door and then climbing out the window. Then run like a motherfucker up the road some to a neighbor's, or hide in the nearby woods and call Mom. What’s your favorite type of pizza? Meat lovers sobs in wannabe-vegetarian. Have you ever been afraid of falling in love? Yes, very. Who’d you last see in a tux? I don't know. Do you record any TV shows and watch them later? No. Do you have difficulty pronouncing any words? Yeah, particularly "breakfast." I tend to put a "t" after the "k." Do you have your own computer? Yeah. Out of everyone you know, who was the most heart? My mom. Who’s the bravest person you know? Oh man, that's hard. I know a lot of brave people. Who would you want to have your back if things got tough? More than anyone in the world, Mom. Have your friends ever given you answers to homework, last minute? Yeah. Have you ever dated someone who was real sportsy? No. Have you ever done something terrible, but took forever to feel bad? By this point in time, I consider how I spoke to Jason before going to the ER multiple times absolutely terrible, and yes, it did take a very long time for me to realize just how cruel it was. Now it's fucking HARD to accept I ever said what I did. Have you ever read Shakespeare? Yes. Can anyone really change anyone that doesn’t wanna change? Nope. Do you think that anyone currently has a crush on you? I would assume Sara still does, but again, we know a relationship between us just isn't wise right now. What profession do you admire the most? The most? Man, that's hard to decide. Probably those that risk their lives for others, like firefighters, cops (yes, I am aware some abuse their power, but good cops deserve all the respect in the world), etc. Have you ever made a fake profile, for any reason? I don't believe so, no. What’s the hardest lesson you’ve ever had to learn? Bad things happen to good people and no, the universe does not care. Have you ever questioned your sexuality? Well obviously.

[defendthecake]

A large collection of concept art for Defend the Cake,

http://defendthecake.com/

game available on steam, itch.io and gamejolt.

Above is the promotional artwork for the Ant Queen. This post is all the concept art and 2d art for Defend the Cake that I could track down which @Drachis had a hand in creating. It is a collection of sketches, watercolor drawings and rough animations of ideas that came up during the production.

This is an idea of the carrot launcher transforming into a robot piloted by an eggbird.

The strawberry shortcake slice was one of the alpha walls we had in game

Picking colors for the frosting upgrades involved some glacial ice reference and non local colors.

These are the breakouts of the 3/4 ant queen perspectives for animation to help simplify from the promo art and ensure the important details came through.

This was a wine opening carrot launcher combo idea, where the spiral screw was used to harvest the carrots.

This animation rough sold us on the idea of the look and feel for the rocket snails.

The coconut palm was a potential rolling pin alternative, we deemed it too much plant and not enough kitchen-punk for the game

Spiiiice worm, with a little cleanup this ended up in game

Howe do eggbirds repair a cake we asked? With staples and tape, just kinda... putting the pieces back where ever. Not the smartest of biurbs.

A rough fat grasshopper animation on paper because Drachis left his computer behind one day.

Some of the early concepts for beetles, segways ants and bees, with a little glimpse at the death animation for ants in the top right.

This is a quick animation of how the carrot launcher that is in game could activate, we started in this direction on the model but didn’t get it completed.

One of the alternative ideas for the watermelon was this seed launcher, which spit an arc of watermelon seeds out.

This is the rough animation for the carrot launcher, we used it in game for a short while in alpha to help with prototyping.

A quick guide on how to make a nine-slice texture paired with ideatiaon on how to build blocks of walls.

One of the early potential strawberry shooter upgrades

Before there were flowers and leaves in the areas outside. the play space there was talk of filling it with brambles. They ended up looking too busy when used in game.

Strawberry tower rough animation, was top down to allow for simple 2d rotation.

Early strawberry shooter idea, too much seed, not enough gear.

The snail iteration that really hit their personality, thanks to @war-anth for encouragement to push it farther.

One early watermelon prototype, a trying pan... we decided it might evoke fried eggs in the player’s mind which wasn’t the goal.

The rough Defend the Cake Logo

One of the animation roughs for the watermelon tower.

“I’m still rather fond of this design, it does something really different and reads very well” - @drachis

Logo exploration for Defend the Cake, this was too much Defend and not enough Cake

When the watermelon slingshot was a cannon.

Exploration of the play space and cake designs, asking “how do we show the grid without always having to put a grid up?“ and “does the cake live on the grass or a tray?“

Watermelon slingshot animation rough, this was used in game during alpha.

Cupcake ideas, how much cute and what elements are most important. The proportion of the design on the left helped inspire the cupcake in game today.

This delicious Strawberry Volcano Brick Toast inspired the walls that you see in Defend the Cake. We tried a couple other baked goods but they didn’t quite hit that same same visual weight.It was sooo good, such delicious research.

Tried out the idea of wall-nut toast, it looked a bit too tiled in game and didn’t evoke that ‘put a thing on me’ feeling

A wee baby cupcake with a frosting beret, it was cute but those cheeks sorta make me die inside.

What if waffle wall? waffled on this idea and it fell out of favor.

Eggbird personality rough sketches, that smirking on in the top center was a big hit and that frame lives on in the game.

Cleaver rough, exploration of the cleaver shape and how it would look on toast.

toast. Toast. TOAST! This was a super satisfying animation that sold the idea of toast popping out of the ground.

Some exploration of what if the eggbirds were more like the babies from angry birds, didn’t quite stick.

Eggbird icon for the UI

Exploring how eggbirds look when we push it some, maybe giant eye highlights.

Making cheesy puns, this bone and cheese knife was the basic idea for the cheese cleaver in game

early cheese cleaver idea, exploration of shapes

The alpha watermark, stuck around until mid beta

A grasshopper all hopped up on 40k ideas ready to get cake for the Empara , er I mean Queen.

bee drone just wants you to remember to....

Building a backronym for the TROJAN EGG, and exploring how the rolling pin might pop out.

Rough ideas for the carrot animation and launcher.

color exploration for the watercolor launcher, banditapple notebooke and windsor and newton mini watercolor set.

Ant queen chair back at the animator’s request, this wasn’t designed until that request came in.

Exploration of the walls, what if they were a fruit tart?

A bread study, to try and figure out what even is bread.

Looking at tart shells and exploring the idea of walls.

Early website promo art sketch, sleeping eggbird getting ready to make a cake.

Toasty explorations, what shapes? Maybe pancakes?

Trying out the idea of braided bread to help give the bread a rather different look.

exploring more braided bread weave patterns

Pushing the eggbirds far past where I initially felt comfortable, what should the carton look like?

Exploring eyes and emotions for eggbirds.

What even is an eggbird, can I draw it in one line?

“Eggbirds always wear a hat” - Namtopia , here are eggbirds with tall chef’s hats.

strawberry shooter particle exploration, this looked too much like blood and was rejected.

happy little cake with raspberries, crayola watercolors

how do the ants die? rough idea of their souls making sad hungry faces and wafting away.

spiral shell rocket snail, when the snail was more jet engine than snail.

rocket snail with goggles, gotta go fast, so fast you hover.

trying to get that moar snailery life going.

Some rough colors on the rocket snail to solidify that pure horror

UI ideas, all the ingredients and recipes on a giant cutting board.

tower sketches , thinking about the rolling pin and how does it roll out dough and what that looks like.

beetle and ants, proportions didn’t quite work at game scale.

Watermelon launcher concept.

mail-egg for the newsletter, animated him walking as a promo for game before alpha during the search for more newsletter signups.

Tried out an idea where the cake was always screaming through the hole in the A.... didn’t go through for reasons.

The logo in full sketch and watercolor form.

This cupcake didn’t make it into the game, the chocolate eyes and overcooked body didn’t quite have the right appeal.

I’m hiding and sad says this cupcake, defend me.

You got this!

Eggbird and cake slice exploration, can they get tired and flop over? I think so.

Cleaver design, really close to final.

the eggbirds go on cooldown, how should that look?

Winter egg promo, standing on an icingy piece of cake

What if the alpha logo was an egg on a runaway eggbeater? too dark I guess.

More alpha logo exploration, some notes from working at a yoga studio.

The logo for Alpha, used as a watermark

beedrone sketch, determined to bee a little too much drone in the face and bee fur is a little creepy.

playing with grasshopper proportions

trying to get the grasshopper to be realistic and super squishable.

Crab apple, crab apple, better than glad apple. Exploring the shapes and progression of the crab apple.

Cake booth sketch for Otakon. It ended up fairly close to this.

Some alternative cake booth ideas.

Looking at plants and zombies towers and thinking about an eggbird cannon.

Exploring the cheese knife hole patterns

trying to figure out the eggbird integration with the cheese knife.

happy birthday egg, for the cake team and company anniversary

happy little watermelon, ready to fly

giddy watermelon just loves their aerial future.

scared cake as a potential logo.

rocket snail as a pod racer, rocket snail with a jet engine on its shoulder.

snail riding a jet engine, snail with an actual rocket.

At which point I determined that maybe there was an optimal engine to snail ratio.

Thinking about stacks of bread.

For a while wheat was delivered each day by a bread cart, we nixed the idea because for an animation you saw every day it just wasn’t cool enough.

Reasons I can never own a house as a millennial, all the eggs might be secretly avocados painted white.

exploring eye and feet shapes for the eggbirds.

fiddling with eggbird gesture.

happy egg bird gestures.

exploring which eggbird faces are the best,

tried putting faces on all the towers, it kinda worked but pushed the game a little too close to PvZ.

Exploring what ants look like and how dough should roll out.

I am an eggbird short and stout.

Watermelon baller, did a good job breaking visual tradition with other watermelon towers. A bit harder to understand it’s damage and function.

Rules: complete the survey and say who tagged you in the beginning. when you’re finished, tag people to do this survey. have fun and enjoy!

1: Are you named after someone? nope. my brother got my grandad’s middle name, but my parents couldn’t find a ‘family’ name that went with nicole (which they weren’t going to budge from) so both my names are aaall mine.

2: When was the last time you cried? honestly i don’t even remember and that’s probably for the best.

3: Do you like your handwriting? yeah, a lot. it’s a printing-cursive hybrid and it’s very swoopy and fun to write in.

4: What is your favourite lunch meat? ick, nast. i don’t really like cold cuts but if i had to, i’d pick turkey. i’d rather have actual turkey breast in my sammich, tho.

5: Do you have kids? i’m the last person who should be having children, so thankfully no. just two kittybabies.

6: If you were another person, would you be friends with you? honestly probably not. i mean, maybe. but i know i come off pretty standoffish at first (in person; online is a different story), so it would depend if i was willing to stick it out past that. 

7: Do you use sarcasm? enh, sparingly.

8: Do you still have your tonsils? yes.

9: Would you bungee jump? “i don’t know how else to say this except no. i suppose there’s fuck no. or, fuck you…”

10: What is your favourite kind of cereal? i don’t really eat cereal much anymore. but if i ever buy it, i get either frosted mini wheats or apple cinnamon cheerios. also i haven’t had this in ages, but cornflakes with milk & lyle’s golden syrup is 💣

11: Do you untie your shoes when you take them off? all of my shoes are either some form of boot or like, slip-ons/flats, so no. 

12: Do you think you’re a strong person? it depends on the day.

13: What is your favourite ice cream? whiskey hazelnut from earnest ice cream (local stuff). there’s so much whiskey in it, it smells like a 2-oz pour the moment you unscrew the lid. heaven. otherwise i like any variation of mint chocolate chip or coffee.

14: What is the first thing you notice about people? outfit. hair. and weirdly, eyebrows.

15: What is the least favourite physical thing you like about yourself? the bangs i got done a few months ago that i now super regret. i always think they’re going to be awesome & cute, then i remember how much i hate having them after the first 12 hours.

16: What colour pants and shoes are you wearing now? black shorts and fuzzy slippers.

17: What are you listening to right now? of monsters and men, i of the storm

25: Favourite food to eat? all of it.

26: Scary movies or comedy? probably comedy because i’m a huge wuss but if it’s a psychological horror/thriller, i might be down. i always have to read the plot first so i know what i’m getting into. gore & jump scares can gtfo. 

27: Last movie you watched? the age of shadows. it’s a korean movie set in the 20s about resistance fighters trying to smuggle explosives into seoul from shanghai to oust the japanese occupation. it was amazing.

28: What color of shirt are you wearing? black

29: Summer or winter? winter, but not the winter we’ve had this year. i like the winters where it rains all day every day, none of this snow business.

30: Hugs or kisses? this is such a weird question. i’m so, whynotboth.gif over this question. it depends who the giver/recipient is, too.

31: What book are you currently reading? labyrinth lost by zoraida cordova. also the canadian securities course volume 2 but that’s for my work certification and it’s also the reason why i’m procrastinating by filling this out instead of studying 👍

32: Who do you miss right now? my parents i guess. it’s been two weeks since i last saw my mom and a month for my dad. they both only live like 45 minutes away, but: life. being an adult is weird.

33: What is on your mouse pad? see, this question is proof that this survey was written like 10-15 years ago and is therefore a relic of the email survey chain phenomenon. who still uses a mouse pad?

34: What is the last TV program you watched? this really cool one from iceland called trapped, which just got added to netflix here. only watched one episode so far but it was a ride.

35: What is the best sound? the little chirps my one cat makes at me and only me.

36: Rolling Stones or The Beatles? enh. neither. but i do like here comes the sun and strawberry fields forever which is two songs more than i like of the rolling stones, so i guess the beatles win.

37: What is the furthest you have ever travelled? it would probably be mali. i think it’s like 10,000km away. maybe latvia but probably not quite the furthest.

38: Do you have a special talent? not in the slightest.

39: Where were you born? milton, ontario.

i tag my usual suspects @commanderruthernerd, @rangerous, @jerkuleshansen, @agrayjedi and anyone else who needs a way to kill an hour on a saturday afternoon!

Which is harder - walking in the snow or sand? Both suck...I guess it depends on how much snow there is, like if it's just a little it's fine but a couple of inches can get tricky and then I'd say that's more difficult than sand.
