Title: where the God Damn Heck has Brotoad been?
Post by: brotoad on August 08, 2014, 10:35:04 PM
Hello everyone, it's me, your lovable neighbourhood Brotoad!

It has been an extremely long time since I have posted here, so I figured I'd drop by and let everyone know where I am and what I've been doing!

First off, game development has been going extremely smoothly! My development team at Suntoad Games (http://www.suntoadgames.com) (we're also on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/SuntoadGames) and Twitter (https://twitter.com/SuntoadGames)) have been making a lot of progress on our game Star Captain for PC and Wii U, and we're working to release a playable demo of the game by the end of the year!

Knowing that my ambitions in life are completely within the realm of possibility right now is one of the greatest feelings ever, I encourage everyone to work hard and accomplish everything you can!

I have come out as a transgender girl not long ago, so I'd appreciate it a lot if you can start using she pronouns for me!

If you'd like to follow my presence, I am very active on Tumblr (http://brotoad.tumblr.com/), sometimes active on DeviantART (http://brotoad.deviantart.com/), and almost never active on Twitter (https://twitter.com/brotoad)! (I sometimes upload pure garbage to Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/user/IAMTOADMAN) too!)

I will always look back fondly on my experience working on Megaman 8-Bit Deathmatch, I learned a lot about the process of game development and improved greatly as an artist!

If you're fresh meat here and you're wondering who the heck I am, I'm the cutest and most powerful game developer on the earth, I used to make graphics for this game and you should get invested in my Web Brand™.

I made the whale in the Dive Man stage, and also the playable skins of these guys!

I also run this garbage webcomic (http://megamanspritecomic.tumblr.com/), and I made the game (http://megamanspritecomic.tumblr.com/post/65735240451/megaman-sprite-game-released-1-year-ago-in-this) based on it too!

I hope you're all having a good evening!

brotoad!!! :D

I didn't know you worked on that many skins for the core. That's really impressive! I can't wait to try out the demo and I hope everything continues to go smoothly!

I'm so happy to hear once again that things are going that well for you. You're a big inspiration to me. Keep it up!

I don't know if I'll be staying around because I have a very low attention span for forums but I'll make an effort I suppose!

I cannot re upload the Moby skin because I don't have it anymore, sorry Geno!

It's nothing for you to hurt your head over, but I'm happy to answer any non-invasive questions people might have!

Hey Brotoad, good to see you on Cutstuff again. While you were gone from the forums, I checked your Tumblr and DeviantART every so often so I've been somewhat aware of what you've been up to. I'm glad progress on Star Captain is going well after seeing lots of your artwork for it. IRL, I only know cisgender people (including myself) so to be honest, observing your transition has been educating for me. You ought to know that you're quite the inspiration!

I'm glad that I am able to provide a learning experience for people on this subject, since it's something with so little awareness right now!

I forgot to add this on the main post but if you want to contact me more directly than via the websites I linked, you can also add me on Skype, my username is 'bro.toad'!

I am going to get your gender confused all the time if your name remains as Brotoad.

Regardless it's nice to see you again, even if I haven't really changed since you left.

Does this mean you'd rather be called Sistoad now?

Also hello! I can't wait to see Star Captain. I love SHMUPS :D

I don't really like "brotoad" as a username anymore, I don't use it for any new sites I sign up to, and I prefer to use "Samanthuel" where it's available, the only reason I'm still using brotoad anywhere is either because not all sites let you change your name or because the name is taken.

And also because of brand recognition I guess!!

(Not a big fan of "sistoad", doesn't have a good ring to it...let's just say that the bro in my name is short for "bromine" and that I'm a big fan of foul smelling chemical elements!)
