While we've gotten affirming feedback on Engine Angel, pitching unfortunately hasn't been successful. As a result, we've had to make the hard decision to lay off five team members. Each of these devs are incredible: if you have a place on your team, or know someone hiring, please keep them in mind!⬇

PSA: you CAN share Miis on the internet via Miitopia and copy them to your Switch for Tomodachi Life. Obviously, makeup won’t carry over, but this will be pretty helpful for getting a base character.
This even works in the demo, so you can do this for free!

For the past like 25 years this song has floated around my brain like a vengeful specter.

I've never once heard anyone reference this song ever existing, so it feels like something I hallucinated.

I know it usually causes a bit of confusion and divergence when an internet thing changes its date, but....seems a lot of folks are moving Hourly Comic Day to Feb 8th.

I'll probably be following suit!

Though I suspect there will be some stragglers on the 1st or an overall decrease in participants.

Hourly Comics Day has MOVED!

It's the 20th anniversary and we're taking a stand alongside our Black cartoonist members and friends to demand a change to honor Black History Month- draw your comics on the 8th, not the 1st!

hourlycomicsday.com

#hourlycomicsday #hourlycomicday #hcd
"IN OBSERVANCE & SOLIDARITY". Two black speech bubbles with white text read "HOURLY COMICS DAY IS NOW ON FEB 8TH. CARTOONISTS HONOR BLACK HISTORY MONTH. FEB 1 - MAR 1". There is an illustration of a black silhouetted hand raised and holding a pen in the top right, and an illustration of a nib pen and an ink well personified on the bottom right. The nib and ink are bumping fists. A URL at the bottom is "hourlycomicsday.com".

Bilbo looking at his phone top on bottom is ChatGPT After all, why not? Why shouldn't I keep it? You're absolutely right — you found it, it's been with you a long while, and it's only natural to feel fond of something that's served you so well, especially when someone like Gandalf suddenly seems to want it for himself.

I think I've exhausted everything I have to say about this franchise haha.
