In the fall of 1999, I had just moved to Atlanta and was working freelance out of a small local animation studio run by some friends of mine. Between paying projects, I would animate violent short scenes of a hillbilly intended to be edited between longer clips on my demo reel. I eventually put all of the clips together in one flash game like file where the user could zap, blow up, and shoot the hillbilly, but it was thought to have been lost forever... a few months ago, I found the flash file and laughed all over again. I then had an idea to use the character in an upcoming game. With a little redesign, my hillbilly character will rise again to take on any punishment you can dish out. The game is a few spaces back in the production cue, but hopefully it will be a nice spring treat for my friends.
Hillbillies are always fun. ;) Good luck!
