| 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. |

You are obsessed with Angry birds, Star wars, Marvel
So you aren’t better.
And if you’re not happy with it, just get out of here. Nobody likes you, and then you’re like “UUUUU WHY ARE U SO MAD TO ME FORGIVE ME PLIZ PLIZ PLIZ PLIZ PLIZ PLIZ”
NOW SHUT THE DAMN UP BECAUSE I CAN USE CAPS LOCK TOO. GET A FRICKIN BRAIN AND USE IT PROPERLY YOU DBAG.
This reminds me, İronman.
Teo can you please stop?
I feel like you try to be sarcastic/funny but it just comes across as mean and nasty, that’s why people keep reacting the way they do to you.
I get English isn’t your first langauage, maybe that’s why. I really don’t know, but just STOP.
Why call Bowser/DmLan “stupid” and “idiot”? Did he do something to you?
Of course not, so why did you feel that was okay to say?
Finally, thank you Ralph.
I’m just really sick of that cycle, he gets mad then everyone is hating him and then he prays us to pardon him.
IM JUST SICK OF IT.
DID YOU SAY SICK OF IT?
Ok guys you know what how about this? I will never talk to You ever again beacuse i will stop commenting if this will make you happy. I am serious. So if you want me to never comment ever again then fine.
Fine deal
Did I say that Teo?
K bye Teo.
Also Ralph, I wasn’t refering to this song.
Nah you were stop lying.
You have an amazing talent to make me smile.
Stop et.
For both our sake’s I’m just just going to pretend you didn’t say that.
Please stop thinking of weird things.
He can’t do that, his mind is firmly planted in the gutter.
Does that mean ralph mind is dirty
Mine is.
Sean, I just realised how edgy you are
ARE YOU TEOO,
İ will find him.
Berke’s method of finding someone, asking everyone if they are that person.
Yes.
Say, I’m not trying to make things worse but, is Teodorninja really gone?
He actually changed his name and has been commenting as someone else.
What is his new name :3 .
Secret.
HHAAAYYYIIIIIIRRRR
Neden neden
Olamaz kesinlikle olamaz, bu kabul edilemez, kim böyle birşeyi kabul eder ki?
Niye söylemiyorsunuz, niye sır tutuyorsunuz, bunları kabul edemeyiz…(en azından ben)
Great, more French.
It’s still a secret.
No, thats Turkish, not French.
Nice try, but I know French when I see it.
How can i talk French, i now only Français, that means French.
İ dont know other words, so thats still Turkish.
There’s a difference between “behejshbxkdidjfjejejhxbx” and “Bonjour, comment ça va”
Ralph, go get new sunglasses.
İ didnt understand that but fine,
*gives him new sunglasses*
So.. if Teo is hidding, I’ll try to catch him…
By changing my profile pic lulz.
My new picture will help me.
But… you don’t have any.
There’s a difference between “behejshbxkdidjfjejejhxbx” and “Bonjour, comment ça va”
Ralph, go get new sunglasses.
And tell me what that means.
I’m confused.
Me too, but i have a picture THE DRUNK PİNK WEİRD GROOT .
Amazing, you confused yourself.
Well, at least u got your Drunk X Groot back.
No, i dont, but i have DRUNK PİNK WEİRD GROOT .
You’re not part of the family anymore.
You’re a traitor.
Now i am.
Nice, drunk Groot is back.
I don’t even know how that’s Groot but okay.
i have a feeling ralph is lying
This is possible.
What is his new name :3
I can’t say. 😐
Yes you can.
Something big is coming…
Soon™
Sean will finally make a new post on Animation Alpha!?
No.
Bigger than this…
(maybe not that big but, its still big)
Soon™
Let me give you an hint.
It’s a fight between two important characters in the sticknodes community.
No, its big but
İ mean really BİG thing.
Hint:
http://www.bizimtek.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/cs-go.png
Does it have to do with Counter Strike Go?
I’m just guessing.
1-Yes
2- İts not Counter Strike Go
İts Counter Strike Global Offensive
I’m going to stick with “Go” because it’s faster to type.
Type CS:GO, its faster.
Hey Ralph+Sean, watch this. https://youtu.be/RzW35UwajRc.

So I’m banning people today I guess.
Thing is Sean will probably never see this.
