Zero Kirby joined MFGG on August 15th, 2006. At first, he was one of those guys who had just found the internet and was generally considered to be an annoying and unintelligent member. Since then, however, he has matured into a somewhat well-known member.
Finding MFGG
Zero originally found MFGG when looking for sprites so he could make his own sprite comics, having found one just earlier called Sonic and Pals. Exploring the site, he soon found Game Maker and began making his own games with the program. After a while, he visited the forums and quickly created an account, originally named Zero_Hero789.
He met trouble early on when Sergeant Jinpen began harassing him. After Zero's own forum was spammed, Zero raised the issue on MFGG, and was banned for bringing up an outside dispute. He was later banned for making duplicate accounts, but before he was permabanned, an admin noticed that one of the accounts had an email matching one of Jinpen's aliases, implying that Jinpen was behind the duplicates. Zero returned no worse for the wear. He was also banned later for flaming Draku. Since then, however, he has become a much better member, not having been banned since.
Since joining MFGG, Zero has noted an improvement in his debating, art, and Game Maker skills, likely a result of much arguing and criticism during his stay on the forum.
His most well known endeavors are Yoshiman Plays Hooky, the comic adaptation of DavidCaruso's Stario fanfiction, and the Super Mario Classic series.
He doesn't post much these days outside of the Fangame Discussion or General Chat.
His Games
Zero has created several different projects during his time at MFGG; however, very few of them ever went anywhere.
- Super Mario Classic - Completed. The game is noted for being extremely poor quality, its only saving grace the music.
- Super Mario Classic: Return - Completed. The game is noted for its graphics and originality at the time.
- Super Mario Classic Two: Mushroom Archipelago - Canceled.
- Super Mario Zero - In production.
His Art
Zero Kirby has developed what he thinks to be an original style, though that's certainly in dispute. Recently, he has simplified his style to a somewhat extreme degree, and now commonly draws in an abstract style. He took inspiration from the art style of Viewtiful Joe, and now uses a similar shading style.
He is recognized somewhat for his drawings, and hopes to become an accomplished artist. He has recently drawn several MS Paint and Photoshop comics; most notably Yoshiman Plays Hooky and Stario: Star Warrior, originally written by DavidCaruso.
His Character
He originally used a gray Sonic recolor with elements from several different video game characters. This character was soon tossed out after Zero matured a bit.
His current character is a caricature of himself and his common clothing. He wears a leather driving cap and a green flight jacket over a cyan shirt with a black stripe. He wears dark blue pants and red-and-black shoes.
