Zero Kirby joined MFGG on August 15th, 2006. He really hasn't ecountered many problems other than being (jokingly I guess) hit on by Sergeant Jinpen several times. However on September 19th, things turned sour.
His forum was spammed by someone and he was suspended for bringing it up on the forums a violation of the outside dispute rule. A similar named account, thought to have been a dupe, was created soon after, and Zero was given an additonal 2 days-ban. Someone else made 3 more accounts pretending to be Zero, in an attempt to get Zero banned. However, Klobber discovered one of the e-mail addresses used for the dupe was "dwangster@eskimobob.com", implying that Jinpen may have been behind the accounts.
He was also banned later for flaming Draku.
He has recently gained a little popularity among a few members for being good with Game Maker. Trying to worm his way into the world of spriting, he's attempted several indie game projects, but has made little headway with any of them.
Recently he has displayed animosity towards MFGG's forums, but retains a healthy relationship with the Main Site, where he continues to contribute several reviews.
His Games
- Super Mario Classic - Renovated. Zero was able to finally get ahold of the source code and spruce it up. However it is now very poor by standards. He's submitted to MFGG.
- Super Mario Galaxy Space Patrol - Complete. A space-shooter mini-game with five levels of difficulty, however repeated. Accepted to MFGG. It was also used in the staff application, something Zero did not expect.
- Super Mario Bros. Speed Math - In Progress. A Edutainment/Twitch mini-game that won Second Place in the 29th Minigame Competition. It plays through the first level of Super Mario Bros. but the rest of the game is planned.
- Super Mario Classic Return - Completed, hoo-freaking-ray. Now on MFGG
- Super Mario Classic Two: Mushroom Archipelago - Engine reset.
- Incredibly Weird Detective: Makin' Bacon Ultimatum - You probably don't want to know. By the way, what is it with me and extremely long names for my games? Hmm.
- Project S.Q.U.I.R.E. - Created by Dex, Zero Kirby is the main programmer and concept artist. However due to certain circumstances he is on an extended leave.
His Art
Zero Kirby has developed what he thinks to be an original style, though that's certainly in dispute. While he prefers to call his style more in the way of cartooning than manga/anime.
He is recognized somewhat for his drawings, and hopes to become an accomplished artist.
Just Another Just Another Day
Just Another Just Another Day is a webcomic run by Zero Kirby. Unlike other webcomics, however, he does not contain them within a typical archive; all the comics are hosted on his Photobucket and posted on various forums he goes to, including MFGG.
The comic is meant to be a satire of a popular webcomic genre of wacky adventures with friends or classmates from school; hence the title, taken from a common title of this genre, which are often variations of the phrase, "just another day." Hence, since this is just another one of them, it's "just another" Just Another Day.
Over the summer, Zero took an extended leave from the comic, to simulate nothing happening over summer (which tends to be true). Since his school year has started, however, he has begun a "second season" as he calls it, even though only five episodes have been developed up to the time of this writing. The style is also going to be changed.
So far, comments about it are mostly positive, excluding Metroid: Fan Mission's userbase, which seemed to dislike it. Here's a link to the MFGG topic.
His Character
Blond spiky hair parted to his left; hair points down from the ears down. He also has blue eyes.
He's recently added a leather jacket to his repotoire. Add to that a red sweater with distinctive markings, dark blue jeans, and red-and-black shoes, and you've got him.
Oh - and he's kinda on the short side.
His Signature
Zero Kirby has since removed the You people disgust me phrase and replaced it with some links, the OSHI-Meter, and a promo banner for Super Mario Classic Two: Mushroom Archipelago.
