TheCriminalDuder's News

Posted by TheCriminalDuder - November 26th, 2010


So if not for the help of Newgrounds I would not be living in my house right now and be on the street.
If not for this awesome game those awesome people made I wouldn't have the money for rent this month.

It's kind of funny - welfare didn't come through, my own government didn't come through - in fact it fucked me over and left me alone to die on the street in the future, but Newgrounds came to my aid. Really this shit should be in a newspaper or something. Years ago NG started and had games where you assassinated celebrities and overall cool shit that some found offensive, honestly I love the controversial stuff here - I always felt NG had a bad boy vibe and it's not funny random toons like Egoraptors Awesome stuff, or Jazza's amazing Larry and Paladins series, or even Adam Phillips Bitey, no no no, to me NG is V-Tech Massacre, Assassination, Pico's school, Crazy Shuttle, and other goodies like games or vids where the Powerpuff girls die, get raped, or murdered horribly.

So it's amazing that a site that once was known for the most offensive and funny flash animations nearly a decade ago can now be used to help people in positions such as myself. And for that - I thank ya with all my heart NG. (To thank the men who made the game who saved me would take many blog post worth of words)

Anyway I applied for welfare which hasn't gotten back to me, and been handing out 15 - 20 resumes roughly everyday. Had about 3 interviews so far and felt they went great. Wish me luck Duders of Newgrounds.

Got a big credit card bill cause I needed to use it to get me some food to eat this month. But, ya... I have confidence and am sure it'll all turn out well.

Today my girlfriend and I went to an awesome sushi place, it was the best hang over sushi ever. We got coffee from starbucks too. <3

Workin' on two Duder shorts and new videos. Ep 4 is still due this year don't worry.

And I'm on a different medication cause the first had bad effects on me. But on my break between my meds I CAN DRINK!

I've applied for welfare but gotten no reply and my career counselor is tellin' me to see my doctor again and give him a 13 page booklet saying I shouldn't look for work until I get my anxiety and depression figured out.

I'm on a anti-depressant, anti-anxiety, and anti-obsessional medication right now and can't drink while on it. :C

Career tracks refuses to pay my first aid or food safe course too. I haven't gotten one reply nor interview. It's nothing short of amazing that NG saved me this month with The Duder Dilemma

I see the doctor on the 18th and he may give me disability for all I know and so I'll be alright. Though how things are I'm still goin to be homeless by the end of December. However that's a good chunk of time still to find work. So my hunt goes on - wish me luck Duders of NG.

Haven't been workin' on ep4 for a bit with the job stuff but may sqeeze a lil' time into it. Got a cute lil' Duder Pong game done and out the other day. Made it for fun so the score isn't an issue. May be a great pre-loader game in the future.

Also youtube vids

If you seen my flash and find it entertaining or even if its not your fancy why not check out my youtube shit but seriously - NG is better so stick to NG. Once NG gets a video portal I'm movin' all my stuff here.

I may set up a paypal donate button on my site for me. But I'm already so thankful and gotten so much.

If anyone out there needs a voice actor and would like me to do some voice work for them I'd be happy too. All free of course. I'm after gettin' myself out there anyway I can.

Peace for now NG!

BoMie, Luis, and Hans --- THANK YOU SO MUCH! YOU GUYS ROCK!

If ya'll don't know what I'm cap yappin' 'bout it's THIS AWESOME GAME

I'm at the risk of bein' homeless by the end of Novemeber, but am feelin' pretty darn confident now I tell ya, I lost my last job last month, only worked two days this month doin' labor for a friend of my moms, and been seein' an employment counselor. I won't get into details 'bout how much I've been applying online and handing out resumes in the hunt for work. I haven't gotten any interviews and my parts (Chilliwack) has no work it seems. I am gettin' a job assessment this 26th though to figure out what job is best for me.

My mother is my landlord (I rent the garage turned my pad) so I am not sure if I can go for welfare just in case, but I'll check it out.

Man, I am blown away. Again - thank you guys. This is amazing.

So I got a job at a call center called Stream in my parts here and didn't have time to finish up Cute Madness 4 the platformer or ep 4 part 1 of Duders. However I've lost my job (again) so now its back to animating on the sidelines as the job hunt begins again also.

I also am playin' a lil' WoW now and then. :3


Posted by TheCriminalDuder - August 13th, 2010


I have over 30 flash and over 30 video now.... and it all keeps growin'! :D

I remember how fun it was to submit new animations every few weeks years ago. However now I put more work in 'em and actually draw 'em with a wacom tablet here, so I don't get to submit stuff to NG as often anymore. I'm a slow animator probably too, but I always get-her-done.

I was worried ep4 was goin' to turn out odd. It's a Sci-Fi Comedy. The settings in space not the Duders hometown of Shine-City. My writings gotten better I feel too, (wish my lady skills were better so I could get me a kiss from this great girl. but whatever), Honestly I've never really thought of the jokes when I write scripts - it all just flows out. Though, I think I've really improved again. My number one compliment I get here is that every time I make somethin' I make it a lil' better then the last. I try to do this. When I make somethin' new I think "How can I make this better then my last project?". I've been gettin' better at art, animation, voice acting, fuck I've even put more work into preloaders, but I think my newest stuff the thing I've really improved is the writing. I guess I'll see if I'm right by the end of summer soon.

Anyways I got new videos too. For those who don't know I also have Duder E. Net TV Backyard Boxing which ya can check out on my youtube channel. However, honestly, I fuckin' hate youtube. If NG had a video portal I'd take all my stuff off and pop it on NG. Youtube is still a fad that's grown out of control while NG is a living. growing community of creative artists with the most honest brutal crowd judging them.

Anyway videos.

And here's a pic of some shots from ep4 part 1.

The Duders Ep4 Part 1 almost done and I now have as much videos as flash.

So Madness day cometh soon. Cute Madness 4 will be included in this day of MADNESS you can be sure. Being a Job Hunting Hick is and moving has token time from animation but, do expect part 1 of ep 4 of the Duders before the summer ends. Maybe part 2 also. Got game ideas though they may have to wait.

Fav me as an author - help me out and spread Duder Entertainment around. Check out all these flash and flash games I got. Don't like my Duders too much, well maybe ya'll will like the other. I'll never stop doing the Duder thing though so best get use to it. Subscribing to my vids is nice too. :D Though I'd rather see more comments and reviews on NG. Anyways I'll stop buggin ya to love me and give ya a chance to. lol

Peace for now NG. I gotta update my site soon today and work on some scripts for future treats for ya'll. Bye-Bye!

And onto my latest greatest (soon to be out-done by the newest episode/Duder special) The Duders Episode 3!

The Duders: Episode 3 Part 1

The Duders: Episode 3 Part 2

The Duders: Episode 3 Part 3

The Duders: Episode 3 Part 4

So I've been reading lots of comics lately. Transmetropolitan and DeadPool. I've been inspired to whip up a comic american or Marvel style. Getting the voice acting done for the next and first Duders Special.

I don't think we deserve to feel bored at all, at any point of our lives. So why not watch some of my flash and vids? Check my site often, fav me as an artist here, subscribe to my vids, and most importantly if ya see anything that tinkles your fancy - show/tell/link a friend. :)

So I was at the art gallery again this year at 4/20 and man was it a nice place. Next 4/20 if ya ain't near something like this I suggest ya organize one near you. We all got the power of activism and can change shit man.

Peace guys! Show me some love, or comment why ya shouldn't. :P

Howdy, Howdy, Newgrounds! New vid!
