Just to be clear...

Posted by Con-Artists Jan. 11, 2008 @ 8:28 PM EST

I'm not working on the fighting game any more.

I've recieved some PM's of late that are bordering on hate mail because I wasn't working on a sequel to The Last Stand, which I find good and scary. Mostly scary though that people are that passionate about Flash games. To those who've sent me such mail, I applaud your commitment, but yeah, get out more. Really.

I am working on something though, and you will hear about it soon, promise.

Crap... I was waiting for the sequel to TLS. Anyways, good luck on your next game.


Jan. 11, 2008 | 11:04 PM hellgate05 says:

is there other weapons after the barret at The Last Stand? hope you reply thru mail


Jan. 12, 2008 | 2:07 AM Rethon says:

Looks like you are cursed by the success of TLS.

I applaud any new direction that you want to go in and am sure that the final product will be excellent.

Keep up the good work!


Jan. 12, 2008 | 2:42 AM Darkside7000 says:

Haha, well I hope that's not the last we see of TLS, and I hope the fighting game isn't trashed completely, I'd like to see it. Regardless, I'm sure whatever you drop on us will be great anyway.


Jan. 12, 2008 | 7:25 PM ut2k4wikichici says:

Thanks for listening to public demand.

Hope things like my full 2 page review made you see that you just have to make a sequal !

May i request a minigun ?

Jan. 13, 2008 | 9:58 PM Con-Artists responds:

It wasn't public demand so much that made me drop it, have a read of my last post that explains it sort of. Was more to do with realising it's flaws (the control scheme was just too complex for a keyboard) and moving on.


Jan. 15, 2008 | 9:41 PM WCCC says:

why complain?


Jan. 16, 2008 | 9:51 PM 10000000000000000000 says:

ty :)


Jan. 17, 2008 | 3:42 AM icespike says:

oh man. the game was awesome, but I hope whatever your working on will be a hit.


Jan. 17, 2008 | 4:58 PM Slash126 says:

to be honest... that fighting game looked like it lacked your standards. I was hoping to see it but it's ok. although I don't know how hard flash is... PM me if you want suggestions for a game and I will go check what type of games score high. It would
be enjoyable to help a great artist but you don't really need my help

cheers

Great things must end somewhere... all well GL dude!


Jan. 19, 2008 | 12:48 PM spaceboy33 says:

can't wait for a sequel to TLS, if you decide to make one, but TLS shows that you have some awesome talent, and i'm quite sure that whatever you come up with will be really awesome, maybe even the top flash of all time for a while like last stand was, you rock


Jan. 19, 2008 | 1:03 PM IammeoramI says:

I was kind of hopin on the new game. Did you delete the files? Oh god I hope you diddn't delete it. Anyway TLS sequel sounds like fun, wait you are workin on it?


Jan. 20, 2008 | 12:56 AM silentgamer656 says:

The last stand? Yea I just beat it. I really like the game but The ending was A bit of A cliff hanger. Id love to see The last stand 2 come out but its your life so its up to you if you wanna make it.


Jan. 20, 2008 | 1:38 PM keatnisher says:

i remember you telling me what it was... and if i remember right it was a movie? heh doubt it but seriously if you told me right it WILL be awesome


Jan. 20, 2008 | 7:06 PM Chad-T says:

MOAR LAST STAND


Jan. 21, 2008 | 1:35 AM chris53456 says:

if you make a second one, you will rock, it will rock, you will be awesome


Jan. 23, 2008 | 10:21 AM mrninja22 says:

you have no time preciure
ill be patient to wait for a sequel to "the last stand"


Jan. 23, 2008 | 5:03 PM Blaze016 says:

Well, I am not happy that people threated the man with the 8th best flash submission because he wanted to make another style of game. Ehhhh, communists...

Anyway, hope that you are able to make the next flash game a smashing success.


Jan. 23, 2008 | 5:04 PM Blaze016 says:

Also, take your time, I've been waiting for Thing-Thing 4 for a long time, so, I'll just have to play Vegas untill it's ready, lol. (Damn you Diseased Productions!)


Jan. 26, 2008 | 8:32 PM keatnisher says:

not to be rude.... or like everyone else.... but, you are being kinda slow but i guess its cause you just quit on the fighting game so idk.... maybe you'll come out with a... nother game... (extremely likely) well maybe... i could help ya do the storyline (bored of ng kinda so i want to do something) cause i don't have enough time to make flash on my own but i could help yea with random stuff


Jan. 28, 2008 | 11:27 PM ryanbrutis says:

TLS is a good game, also i do exercise, but you should really make a sequel, like maybe the survivors were taken to a city, buy Larger and stronger hordes attack it, so you can costumize your dfecnes to fight back, just a suggestion though, good job.


Jan. 30, 2008 | 8:17 PM hagaya says:

that is just amazing, people love the last stand so much that they would hate their object of worship for not doing what they want, if you ask me, you should be the one hating them for not doing what YOU want(not sending you hate mail for something stupid). WORK on that fighting game, do what you want. you aren't their servant. just work on what you want dude.


Feb. 2, 2008 | 3:03 PM Edx77 says:

um if u read this
i LOVE ur last stand game
i had some ideas about u makin a sequel but im pretty sure ur almost done
hopfully
just wanted to say that if u plan on naming characters

that would be soooo intense
but u dont have to
just wanted to say u r the best
peaze out


Feb. 5, 2008 | 4:05 PM pwnmastr says:

Edx77, he is not almost done. He probably just started.


Feb. 5, 2008 | 8:09 PM lol9996 says:

holy moly im with you.
you're right you guys have to go out more i mean im in the computer now but seriously. but now for the bad part,now......i like "TLS"as much as the last guy but i think you should show us what your working on,if you are,just PM me.plz try to read this :)


Feb. 7, 2008 | 7:44 PM Gavin says:

Jesus just make a new game please haha


Feb. 7, 2008 | 9:02 PM bryan1231 says:

WOOHOO NO MORE FIGHTING GAME! WOOT! i really like the last stand if you happen to make another may i request a flamethrower,chaingun,bombs,more survivor slots,more awesome zombie killing weapons,40 days and 40 nights, and bosses you dont have to add them all all i want are 40 days and 40 nights and a flamethrower to burn the hell out of those zombies muahahahahaha >=)


Feb. 8, 2008 | 2:57 PM Zergling-seb says:

I faithfully wait for the next game, Last Stand 2 or not. You're actually the first artist to make a Flash game I could play for hours.

Keep up the good work!


Feb. 9, 2008 | 4:25 PM ut2k4wikichici says:

Good luck Fellow Australian !

TLS and Portal where the best games i have ever played on NG.

Your next game well be just as great, good luck !


Feb. 9, 2008 | 4:46 PM Merforga says:

TLS was a fun game to play, good luck on whatever game you're making next.


Feb. 9, 2008 | 5:39 PM Ion14 says:

:( That's too bad that we won't see a sequel to this. For a game that came out at the peak of the "defense game" days... it made a HUGE impact. But either way... I am very glad to hear you're still working on SOMETHING. I can't wait to see!


Feb. 10, 2008 | 4:13 PM kdfsjljklgjfg says:

It'd be awesome if you made the sequel somewhat like Zombie Hord3, but whatever, do it your own way with your own style.

It works......brilliantly.


Feb. 12, 2008 | 2:34 PM Pyrocious says:

Just played TLS for the first time today, pretty damn good for your first flash game here, though I'm willing to bet that this isn't your first time making games because quite frankly usually people's "first game" on NG are total crap... anyway I really hope you decide to make a TLS 2 game someday. The way you ended this game seemed to heavily hint at a sequel lol


Feb. 14, 2008 | 8:00 AM Fezz says:

As long as it's not The Last Stand 2, I don't give a shit.


Feb. 15, 2008 | 11:07 AM pwnmastr says:

If I was one of the people sending you hate mail (witch I am not) and I read this, I would probably think you were a jackass. Liking a game a lot does not mean someone doesnt get out enough. But hey, what can I say about it? I havnt read the PM's you've been getting. Maybe your right.


Feb. 16, 2008 | 6:16 AM Darkeraser says:

Hey its ok to not be working on the sequel to The Last Stand, but hell if i was you id improve on the first one, make it longer, and more guns, then maybe you could make people pay to get the full game haha...


Feb. 16, 2008 | 9:19 PM benjume says:

ok its ok


Feb. 17, 2008 | 10:29 AM herbiethepimp says:

the last stand is my favorite game on ng, some stuff i want in the seccond is for it to be longer, with more weopons and the abillity to customize character

just suggestions, thanks


Feb. 17, 2008 | 11:39 AM CcZero says:

Whatever you'll do I'm sure it will be perfect. You're one of the best flash artists out there so you could do something completely insane but still good ...


Feb. 18, 2008 | 6:08 PM Unkle-Krakerz says:

Who are you guys anyway? Are Con Artists a real company?


Feb. 22, 2008 | 5:36 PM Mary-J says:

Hey dude i loved your game "THE LAST STAND" it was f'in awesome! You should definantly make more like it. You are definantly GREAT at the Zombie genre and i cant wait for more of your games and flashes. Keep up the great work!!!


Feb. 23, 2008 | 10:38 PM ruinnewb says:

I TEH LOVE YOUR GAME!
make more like it plz!


Feb. 25, 2008 | 10:31 AM crisis105 says:

i cant believe people would send you hatemail to you only because you weren't making the sequal to the last stand!!!!!!!those meanys.


Feb. 26, 2008 | 4:42 PM pwnmastr says:

The Last stand was on Attack of the Show. You knew that right?


Feb. 26, 2008 | 7:26 PM JamesJaman says:

I still love you.


Feb. 27, 2008 | 8:50 PM Zetvirus55 says:

hate mail? dude nobody should be that obsessed(then again this is the last stand we talking about) meh, do what you want


Feb. 27, 2008 | 8:53 PM hentaiguy100 says:

hmmmm well i am srry but glad your not making a fighting game but are you making a game like last stand


Feb. 27, 2008 | 9:00 PM Professor-D-Weed says:

You just do what you gotta do man. Don't worry about those or any other flash obsessed bastards. All I can say is keep up the kick ass work and if it's not fun to do, don't do it.


Feb. 28, 2008 | 12:01 AM Rhyda says:

Yo The Last Stand was a great game. I hope you work on a sequel or even an update? But regardless good luck with whatever new game you're working on. Keep on the good work.


Feb. 29, 2008 | 4:13 PM NEMISIS1222 says:

ur awesome. im glad you see it our way. lol. are you going to start the sequel to the last stand now?


Mar. 1, 2008 | 4:24 AM Xarnor says:

Wow. You did a great job on your first flash game. But I'm guessing that the Last Stand wasn't your actual "first flash" but just your first flash GAME. Am I right? Anyway, is there any secrets in the game? because one time I was playing it, and I got this AWESOME sniper rifle thing, it was like kind of futuristic or something.


Mar. 1, 2008 | 1:42 PM polmn says:

What is the new project you are working on though...


Mar. 2, 2008 | 1:22 PM Canidrianic says:

I really do hope you make a sequel to TLS, or something like it sometime. Like... Make the game last longer, for one. Though, since you aren't working on that right now... I'd love to see the game you are making if it is as good as TLS! =D Keep up the GREAT work!


Mar. 4, 2008 | 6:25 PM heatherlee37 says:

Damn. I sequel to The Last Stand would've been awesome...
Oh well. I hope your next game is just as good :)


Mar. 5, 2008 | 4:05 AM walterwagner says:

u are a legand
watch madness


Mar. 5, 2008 | 5:03 PM antthepimp says:

hey man i loved last stand. it is one of the best games i have ever played in a very long time. I would really wish that you would make a sequel to it. it would be bigger than the original. but besides that it was a great game and continue with the great work.


Mar. 5, 2008 | 5:10 PM Dervos says:

Well I'm glad people like it but they should veer away from the teetering border of hate mail >.>

I never even thought you would consider making a sequal to TLS.

It was a very fun game and I just recently played the flash version of portal you made which is very stimulating. Makes me want to play the actual portal lol

Keep on going


Mar. 10, 2008 | 9:04 PM THEkronick281 says:

WHAT NO FIGHTING GAME!!1!


Mar. 11, 2008 | 2:04 PM LampFace says:

You favorited your own submission.


Mar. 12, 2008 | 2:52 AM Sp694 says:

it would be better if the gameplay took place in a different background. good luck on your next game


Mar. 13, 2008 | 11:44 PM JDarkley says:

Having enjoyed "The Last Stand" I believe that you should do whatever the hell you want as long and as it is of decent quality, we'll still enjoy it.

While I do want a bigger, better sequel to TLS eventually (and I was interested in the fighting game you were working on too) I'm looking forward to whatever else you have to offer.


Mar. 15, 2008 | 1:21 AM Boxxero says:

Another Game?
Cool.
Whats it about? Zombies again?
PM me with the answer


Mar. 16, 2008 | 6:45 PM Gamerguy13 says:

Thank you for make a sequel!check that game's page for a good idea


Mar. 17, 2008 | 10:05 PM kr4zy-06 says:

You shouldnt give two shits about what some fan-boys demand. If you want to make a sequel later than do so, if you wanted to make that fighting game then do it. Dont give into these ass-hats, they can wait for a sequel, I enjoyed The Last Stand, alot I might add. But that doesnt mean you should drop your shit for other people. I hope this gets through to you, Have a nice St. Patricks day!

Mar. 18, 2008 | 1:42 PM JediWithASniper says:

Hey man, I left a comment for you on the game, I found a bug you might want to know about, so if ya do, go check it out.


Mar. 18, 2008 | 3:11 PM colombia14 says:

dude you are awsome for making last stand. im not demanding a sequel cause it is good the way it is. with those really good graphics that you make you can do cooler games.

PS: (you can still do a sequel if you want :))


Mar. 19, 2008 | 2:29 PM Professor-D-Weed says:

Bunch of douche bags. Sure, I'd love to see a new Last Stand, but damn people come on.

I was actually waiting on that fighting game, it looked cool. Good luck on your new project man.


Mar. 20, 2008 | 7:43 PM darkbladesofdeath says:

Man the Last Stand is a legendary game... Good luck on your next flashes!


Mar. 21, 2008 | 7:01 AM jakdacrowe says:

lol Those people should learn how to wait, even if they love the game so much.
But anyway, keep going man! :D
