Who are Psynthetix?


Well, I figure that if I've got your attention, and I'm gonna keep working on my game, I've got to keep you all entertained until then. So, let's talk about Psynthetix for a brief bit.

Psynthetix is a little band formed by Myles Taylor and his best friend, Stride Jackson (second-left). Originally, they were called Stridin' Myles, and played in Myles' garage, with Myles on lead guitar, and Stride on bass. Myles and Stride were good friends at Aront High School. Cindy "Twilight" Wensleydale (second-right) jumped on board shortly after as keyboarder, and they did their hardest to get Hiro Tetsujin (far left) in the band, since he was the best drummer on campus. Jesse Black (far right) was brought on board when they needed a ride to travel around Trula, and a technician. He's proven himself a good backup guitarist later on. (Susan wasn't in the band yet, since her story doesn't begin yet.)

Eventually, they got a manager, named Tom. He's managed a lot of musical acts, including Stabbington and R-Tina. It was thanks to him that they got the name Psynthetix, and their first major gig, the Instruments of Power tour. It produced a hit single for them, Rock Da World Again.

...oh, and they performed a little for the controversial pop singer, R-Tina, on an album called Co-Ed Celebration.

Eventually, they got a second bass approved by Tom, named Scaramouche Faust. Most people call him Scarry. He has a nasty tendency to steal Stride's riffs, and he's much older than the rest of the band. He'll be disowned due to monster-summoning reasons that will be explained in the game.

Of course, after a certain incident, Susan would join the band, but we'll get to that story when the game comes out.

Next up

The next update may be full of bugs.

...moths, mostly.

He's coming back. ...but just this once.

I hope you appreciate what I go through for pointless details like this.

I don't plan on going this crazy too much, though.

Coming soon to another update.

Lemme get some work done with it first, then we'll talk.

Just a reminder. It's coming on the 16th, assuming nothing goes wrong.

There are a lot of robot arms in a prosthetics factory. They flail about, so don't get too close, or they'll hurt you.

I was considering releasing the expansion today, but then I found a lot of bugs I should've spotted in the original build, and I made the minimap do extra stuff for said expansion.

Don't worry, it'll be out by tomorrow night.

...so much for that zany scheme.

Let's see if I can do something else.

If my plan for Sega CD-styled cinematics doesn't work out, Plan B would be the GBA-style cinematics.

If anything, they make decent filler.

So, what's the secret to drawing a car?

1. Just draw the car from profile, back, and possibly front.

2. Dig out any Hot Wheels product for reference.

3. Use the reference to figure out how to draw those in-between angles.
