ToonPimp



ToonPimp (also known as lukeshoot, bimson, and Hobart Starr) is a Hentai/furry animator and artist specializing in porn games/interactive adult media, erotic art, and webcomics. He works primarily in a "toony" or "comic" style, hence the name. His body of work includes numerous games in Adobe Flash format (.swf), including The Curse of Cracklevania, Run Minerva Run 1 and 2, , Pepe Le Rapiste , and Fifi's Fury among other Flash media. Most of these interactive sex games are based on fighting-style games, complete with accompanying platformer movement controls, contain concepts such as armor and health, and have an erotic theme to them that involve nudity, explicit genitalia, and/or explicit sex acts. Much of ToonPimp's art gallery thus far has focused on fetishizing well known Disney and Warner Bros. cartoon characters, but are not limited to only those properties, having gone as far as to make interactive artpieces for less-discussed characters, such as Argit from Ben 10: Alien Force, and Socrates the Bobcat from Adventures from the Book of Virtues.

Work
ToonPimp draws an ongoing erotic comic (on hiatus but revived as of 2019), Nogo, an erotic spoof of "Pogo". With the changing landscape of reactions to cub porn, and most websites banning it, it's unclear whether Nogo can be posted to any place that isn't Inkbunny or his own site, being that the character Nogo is based off of is an undetermined age. He has also created several games of varying complexity over the last two decades, giving birth to the Furry Adult game genre, Run or Rape.

His most ambitious project to date has been The Uptown Brothel. This game is vaguely similar to High Tail Hall and The Tail Underground in having several rooms and different characters to interact with, but done in Toon Pimp's own style, involving a mix of erotica and humor. The present version of the game -- available at Toonpimp's Palace and at adflashtoons -- does not offer "full interaction" (explicit sex) with any of the characters, but there have been previous versions that did allow this.

He published fewer works in 2008 than in previous years but had become active once more, starting in 2010. According to notes on his website and in his Yahoo! group, this was because he was looking for a way to get paid for his artwork, rather than simply giving it away to the furry fandom at large for free. As of 2018, he's set up two Patreons: Ultimate RoR, and Podophiliac Game Union for Run or Rape games and interactive furry foot fetish material respectively. Where Run or Rape games are concerned, with the death of Adobe Flash, Toon Pimp has moved onto mainly art, comics, Flash objects involving AS3 code (being exported as .exe), and MUGEN (Toon Pimp's Fight Palace).

Run or Rape
Run or Rape games involve fictional characters trying to get somewhere without being "raped" by various monsters/furries encountered. According to TP, the rape is desired to a small extent, thus actually semi-consensual. Enemies must be defeated via combat -- or in some cases ran away from until circumstances are more favorable for fighting a particular enemy. If you get raped too much, you die. Most of Toon Pimp's Run or Rape games involve female lead characters, but The Curse of Cracklevania does have a character who changes gender from time to time as the game goes on.

More recent works
include:


 * Toon Pimp's Fight Palace (A lewd ode to old fighting game mechanics and toony character quirks, Fight Palace is a MUGEN 1v1 (or higher) fighter first, offering brisk high combo-potential gameplay first, and sexual intercourse second. Sexualized victim animations in the game are not compatible with Minotaur, Kuromaru, etc, and are not the main focus of this fullgame.)
 * Run Minerva Run II: Run Harder (Dodge em All (created in honor of Run Minerva Run 1's Tenth Anniversary - HIATUS))
 * Pepe Le Rapiste ver. 3 (Pepe le Pew rapes various toons, hindered by the stink he gives off, and aided by various power-ups)
 * The Curse of Cracklevania/Off Canon (Run or Rape platformers spoofing Castlevania)
 * Invasion of Nucleus 9 (Erotic Contra-like)

Works in progress
(as of December, 2020) include:


 * Several comics
 * Toon Pimp's Fight Palace (ver 0.9 released through the Toon Pimp's Fight Palace Patreon.)
 * Run Minerva Run 2: Run Harder (hiatus- lack of public interest over misunderstandings that it's a Walking Simulator, and not TP's average type of Run or Rape.)
 * Streets of Gape II (hiatus- lack of public interest over lack of prolonged sexual animations- Erotic Beatem Up game that's a modification of Streets of Rage 2 for Sega Genesis.)
 * Super Streets of Gape II (hiatus- started project through OpenBOR, hasn't been able to grasp its scripting language yet, meant to be like a version of SoG that can surpass Sega Genesis hardware.)
