About Me
Hey Dtoid. Welcome to perritoid!

I'm a 23 year old artist/teacher. While in University I experimented mostly with Animation, Video, and Games.

The lovely [dearly departed] Anthony Burch* featured the fruits of my experimentation here on Destructoid as part of the Indie Nation Series Which probably is one of the coolest things that has ever happened to me! One of many reasons why I love Destructoid.

*The [formerly] Resident Person Named Anthony Who Isn't Anthony Perri.

My first console was the SNES. It remains my favourite, and I've been playing games ever since without pause. Recently I've been a little burned out on the modern sensibilities of a suddenly overwhelmingly Western market. Most of the HD games don't appeal to me.

I currently live in Korea where I teach english and avoid Starcraft [and the north].

Hey Guys,

sooo, its here. I stayed at work late last night to get this together - it's abysmal. I'll admit though that it wouldn't be half as bad if I had a decent soundtrack in place, and if I replaced that placeholder scene between the two with the radio. Anyways, I'm going to keep working on this when I can. I'd like any feedback, so far I would say its about a quarter finished- visually. I still need to refine what I have as you can likely tell and add epic introductions of all other cast members (more is in store for Topher). So I guess this is the intro+.

I typically like to work on stuff like this on my own but I typically don't finish anything so I'm going to extend an offer. If any of you out there have a good knowledge of audio and soundtracking, let me know if your interested in scoring this. I was hoping to put in existing game music, but an original 8-bit score would, I think, bring it into the glory this podcast deserves. So if anybody is interested in creating a midi track for the finished product or just gathering songs and putting them in the right places PLEASE let me know, I need help.

So without further adieu- here it is. I suck.



Was supposed to be finished for tonight or when they release the show, but this is what I have so I'm showing it, and calling for help.

RetroforceGO- I Love you.

Anthony, that did NOT SUCK. Are you crazy? The scene with Chad flying with the rainbows behind him was worth the price of admission all on its own!

More important is that you made something like this for us just to say you are excited we are coming back. I can't say thank you enough for that. :)

Not to be cliche or anything, but that was indeed...AMAZING. I liked the Mega Man and Proto Man figures on the shelf in the beginning - nice touch.

That would be Chad's super ultra mega move if he should happen to appear in the next Marvel vs. Capcom game. As a matter of fact, someone should make a MUGEN video with Chad kicking some ass.

Protip: "Your" is possessive ("your soda"), "you're" is a contraction of "you are."

This reminded me of intro to captain planet, it's AMAAAZING and full of heart.

If you're thinking about using lobit music may I suggest anything by Nullsleep?

anyways, this deserves a high-five!

Needs work, but I lost my shit when Chad came flying out of the water. It was amazing.

Also, there was a huge thunderclap outside at the exact time this happened.
