WTF!

WTF!

No, I'm not ranting. WTF stands for Work Time Fun.

I've been eyeing this game for the past few months and was finally able to score a used copy at a Gamestop yesterday. The verdict? I love it and it's super weird. It's mindless fun where you complete work tasks like capping as many pens correctly for as long as you want so that you can earn money to buy junk and get more jobs. And I don't know if it's just me or not, but the background track in the intro seems to be of a man being whipped relentlessly + without mercy.

I'm going to rank this game right alongside Lumines. There was a period of time where for a month I played Lumines non-stop...as in foregoing sleep. It was like crack.

And now, I shall go pop some more Aleve in the hopes of recovering from a night where I shouldn't have had that Tequila shot.

Package Design

Been researching package design and came across this. TOO funny and disturbing at the same time. Courtesy of a UK design studio called us. See all the others here.

Communication Arts Illustration Competition + Appleseed

King and Queen and cover art by Lillian Chan
I entered the King & Queen Beautiful Decay ad and the scientific book cover into the Communication Arts Illustration Competition a few days ago. I hadn't even thought about entering anything until my fellow mimobot designer dropped the application form onto my desk. The deadline is today actually.


Appleseed Ex Machina
In other news, I finally got to watch Appleseed Ex Machina last night and it was...awesome. How bad@ss is Deunan? And not the dubbed over version, but the Japanese-speaking version? The CG was pure eye candy and the fight scenes were nice. I like watching anime flicks -- not series because I don't have the patience to watch 100+ episodes...(I hear how awesome Naruto and Bleach are, but I just can't). What I like most are the anime that depict females kicking @ss and in robot suits. :)

currently listening to: Usher's "In The Club" and some Keyshia Cole.
