| Favorite animated show |
Insert Jojo reference here. Also the Dragon Ball series for sure because that's what started it all. My Hero Academia, Attack on Titan, Dr. Stone too. Non-anime (kinda) however, the Avatar series (ATLA and Korra) too. |
| Favorite non-animated show |
Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Game of Thrones. House gets an honorable mention. |
| Favorite movie |
Not much of a movie person, idk. I did force myself to watch the Marvel movies and they weren't bad to be honest so, yeah, Endgame I guess. |
| Favorite video game |
I don't play much of anything so in terms of nostalgia there's Tomba 1 and 2, Spyro, Ratchet and Clank, Jak and Daxter among others. The original Genesis Sonic games are up there too. |
| Favorite food |
Orange chicken but, like, not the authentic kind. More like the sugar-chicken version where it just rots your teeth away as you eat it. |
| Ralph started making Stick Nodes one day because he was bored. He grew up practically addicted to a stickfigure-animation program called Pivot which sparked his interest in both animation and game development.
Eventually he got into Flash animation and Flash game development. He released quite a few games into the Flash gaming community, check out his portfolio for links.
Once mobile devices started taking over, he moved over to attempt Android games. After a few failed attempts, he released Plunder Peril - a quick 2-3 week project that was meant as Android-development practice.
After Plunder Peril, Ralph began work on Stick Nodes and in August 2014, Stick Nodes was released on Android with the iOS version following in November. Stick Nodes is built in Java with the LibGDX framework and uses RoboVM to port to iOS.
Fast forward to March 2020 when he was revising this page and he honestly can't believe Stick Nodes is still going so strong. Onward to world domination...
Fast forward again to August 2023 and really, I haven't been cancelled yet? |

| Sean is the site administrator and creator of the stickfigure submission system as well as a majority of the DBZ stickfigures. He also has a funny accent.
At around age 12 he discovered Pivot, ended up on Droidz.org looking for stickfigures to use in his animations, got fairly good after about 2 years.
He decided to make a website to host his animations on after having been on the forums for a long time. That's what got him into webdesign since the first iteration of his website was a terrible looking flash-based thing that at the time he thought was the best thing out.
After a while he realized how stupid it looked and behaved. So he looked into HTML and CSS, got it looking slightly better but it wasn't until he found WordPress that it started looking decent.
After that he went off the grid for a bit, got his Cert IV in IT and Webdesign, cemented his understanding of the internet protocols.
Lately he's been helping out around the Stick Nodes community and has been managing Animation Alpha. He's also been looking into game development and has begun a project that he hopes to finish one day soon, he can't really reveal anything about it but it's for mobile devices and will be a 2D sidescroller. |

I never saw such an hyped 13 years old kid.
OK RALPH BAN ME FROM THIS SITE IF THEY WANT THAT THEN THATZ WHAT THRY WILL GET JUST BAN ME! *cries* ?????????????????????
We don’t want to ban you. We only want you to calm down.
Ralph asked you to STOP WITH CAPS ITS ANNOYING AND IT LOOKS LIKE YOU ARE YELLING.
We just want you to calm down and stop spamming all over the place. That’s it.
Ok i am calm but dmlan please show me an imgur or noelshack link of the star Wars angry birds and penguins of Madagascar stickfigures ok? Please
No.
Why not? I really love your work you inspired me i made some sonic stickfigures too. But why not?
I see, we don’t need to ban you, we just need to break your caps lock.
Yeah I was testing if he was going to use caps.
I’ll show them when I’ll be at home.
Did you came Back home?
Savage.
Omfg you are so eager to see the stickfigures.
Just because you asked me if I was at home, I’lk make you wait 2 more days.
Teo,if your 13,you wouldn’t be practically yelling at everybody that you want stickfigures.And honestly,it’s VERY irritating that you keep informing people that you made sticks but you don’t even post them.So if your not going to post them,then nobody will care.
Rekt.
To be fair, he has made them and submitted them, I just haven’t gotten to them yet.
Everyone go yell at Sean for not taking my generous paid offer to go through and approve stickfigures for me so they come out faster.
Lol, just be patient m8.
