Before :The Game: came out, I was working on this TV pilot, Wentworth and Buxbury, for most of early 2008. The producers, Dark Heart Productions, placed an advert on the Newgrounds forums for an audition for animators. I submitted a 30-second clip, and landed the job of lead animator.

I, a 14-year-old at the time, working with professionals! Creaming all over my ego, I got straight to work, and Wentworth and Buxbury went on to go to TV festivals in New York and Los Angeles and win awards!

Then the Wentworth and Buxbury project just died.

Wentworth and Buxbury are two young, charismatic, but nonetheless unfathomably evil supervillains-in-training with a healthy mutual disdain for one another (and a healthy mutual love of crumpets). A bizarre blend of callous homicidal instinct and the utmost of civility. The pair are sworn arch-nemeses yet at the same time, though they are loath to admit it, they might just be friends too.
