I Need A Break, Dare I Say... Hiatus?

Posted by ixintro Jul. 17, 2009 @ 8:20 PM EDT

Hey everybody, long time no see.

Okay, I've got news, probably not great news, just news. If you're looking for Episode #4 of "Tywo At Large" anytime, you're not gonna get it. I've put the episode on hold indefinitely. Just let me explain why I'm not going to work on it... The script really sucked. You know, have you ever written something, then let it sit for a long time, then come back and realize you hate it? Yeah, that's what happened to me. Sort of like how they tell you that if you want a tattoo, put the design in your wallet for a year to make sure you still like it. It was good at the time, but now, it's just a mess. The people I showed it to held their noses and were horrified.

So, I'm either going to jump to Episode #5, which some peoples' only complaints were its length (13 minutes) or I'm going to rewrite Episode #4 from the ground-up. The concept was decent enough, the execution sucked rocks. I also need to tweek some characters, especially Jackal. He's just kind of... There. So I need to rethink a few things, and it won't be too easy so I'm going to need a little time.

But this isn't going to be anytime soon, I'm taking a break. Not gonna be Tywo-ing up Newgrounds for a while. But I'll still be animting, I'm going to be branching out, which is PAINFULLY needed. I'm working on a new movie, which is coming along really well actually. I'm not going to give too much info about it, but if you're in the know about this stuff, you'll know I've been plastering it all over other sites already. And it's 100% Tywo free. I dno't think anybody will be too miffed about this anyway though. I have a bit of another short episode done, but I really don't feel like working on it, sheesh.

This new movie though, I'll try having done before I go off to college in the end of August. I believe I can do it since I feel so rejuvinated since I started this new project with fresh ideas and no preset... Well anything. The character design style is different, the backgrounds are different, the feel is different. Actually, I like the new background style so much, I may switch future episodes of Tywo to this style, no more outlines, just color. Also, it's widescreen, just sayin'.

So anyway, yeah, no more Tywo for a while, that little bastard is on a time-out until I know what to do with him.

During the meantime, I'd like to introduce you guys to a guy named Jim.

Oh yeah, NOODLES!

A Day Later...

Crap, I totally forgot about the voice actors that were supposed to be involved with Episode #4, sorry about there being no notice. But thank you for your hard work on the pieces you recorded. If and when I remake Episode #4, your roles may be recast, if so, I'll contact you when the time comes.

HIATUS?! NEW TYWO STYLE?!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO D:

Jul. 17, 2009 | 8:23 PM ixintro responds:

Change.
Bound to happen eventually.


Jul. 17, 2009 | 8:25 PM Aryk says:

Why doesn't Tywo have his own series page yet?

Jul. 17, 2009 | 8:28 PM ixintro responds:

Because... I dunno. I'm thinking of just renumbering everything so it'll be like 6 or 7 episodes. Not to look like more, but because I need to start writing more compact stories since most of you guys have too small of an attention span to watch an 11 minute movie. Just sayin'.


Jul. 17, 2009 | 8:52 PM bl00db47h says:

Nice lookin'. I love that background style too! I hope that your break goes well for you, and that Tywo gets fixed soon. Also, with your tattoo thing... are you implying you have a tattoo of a drunken walrus ninja?

Jul. 17, 2009 | 8:54 PM ixintro responds:

Thanks. Well not a WALRUS Ninja... More like a... Manatee Ninja. Right above my asscrack.

BREAKING NEWS

Sayre, PA 9:39 PM

Sources have learned that popular animated character Tywo from the internet sensation "Tywo at Large" will try his hand at the cartoon porn industry while his show is on hiatus.

He was unfortunately available for comment.

Jul. 17, 2009 | 10:03 PM ixintro responds:

But when reporters tried to reach fellow cartoon characters for comment, they were shocked to find Tywo already fulfilling his promise with "Dr. Katz" character, Laura. The squigglevision was so intense it induced vomiting.

Looks like a sweet new style. Character shading is under-appreciated. I know what its like to go back on stuff and completely hate it, but by the time I look back I've already made it and published it. So yeah..... Whoops. Do what you've gotta do. I'll look forward to whatever you've got going on.

Jul. 18, 2009 | 1:35 AM ixintro responds:

Thanks man, I'm trying to make sure my stuff is airtight now before tossing it out there. Also, uh, that's the only scene I have shading in, he's looking into a fridge. I switched to a 90% FBF style for the new project so shading would be a little too much. But hey, more FBF, already looks better than a bazillion tweens and symbols!

Well I hope that when (or if) Tywo comes back he does it soon, I really enjoy your series. Also are you still going to be finishing your collab part?

Jul. 18, 2009 | 6:03 PM ixintro responds:

He'll be back eventually, unless I have some life-altering epiphany or something.
