I *REALLY* wanted to have a big push for doing mail-out convention badges before MFF. Concussion followed by COVID killed that.

I can probably still do two or three, mailed out no later than the 24th if I get the orders in by tomorrow night!

The hype around Silksong made me finally check out Hollow Knight, so I've been poking through that in my spare time. It's been a nice chance to slow down my brain and patiently explore - I've looked up a couple specific questions when I felt I'd gone in too many circles, but otherwise staying blind.

We're absolutely over the moon with the response to our newly released demo for War of the Western Deep!

Thank you all for the amazing feedback, the livestreams, the videos, the comments--we're so excited to see the game resonating with folks.

A bugfix demo update will be going out soon, too!

Over this past year I've been getting more and more sick on behalf of the folks on whom the worst bullies in the world have been focusing their attention.
I wish I could sic my nine-foot orc cat on 'em. Fun to draw her all snarly, at least.

If you're a fan of classic hand-drawn animation, Disney's Robin Hood, Don Bluth, or Redwall, we think you'll enjoy what we've got cooking!

Want to try it for yourself? Now you can! War of the Western Deep now has a playable demo on Steam! store.steampowered.com/app/2976440/...

Cameo appearance from Dakkan in the sizzle reel 👁️

(hopefully this image finally uploads properly, ugh)

Undertale never became a fixation for me, but I deeply appreciate it and what it brought to the medium. Last year I finally went through Earthbound, and enjoyed spotting some of the likely-inspirational elements there. This is why art is so cool.

With Mirren joining our grand cast of Western Deep protagonists, it seemed only fair that she get her own enamel pin!

Visit us at PAX West next month at Booth 662 for a chance to get your hands on one!

My attack on @kobb.bsky.social , of Dakkan, from @westerndeep.bsky.social !

Here he is demonstrating a model catapult at the war table.

Definitely not a toy. Certainly not playing... ;)

So excited to have just wrapped our second batch of VO sessions with the incredible @samanthabeart.bsky.social for War of the Western Deep!

There's a whole lot more Mirren VO coming in the new PAX demo this August, and we can't wait to share it!

#NoKings, representing in my small (rather red) Ohio suburb. A heartening amount of support from folks driving by!

I would probably be interested in trying the Soulslike format sometime, but whycome most of the imitators have the same gross uber-detailed, decaying aesthetic? That's like 95% of the reason I haven't felt like trying the actual Souls games.

I'm being haunted by the part of myself from high school who was briefly and intensely interested in political cartoons.

My feelings on Wilds are... mixed. The world itself is lush - love the human cultures, weird monsters, endemic life, weather shifts. Good bones. But the design of story progression and combat mechanics both feel like they encourage me to turn my brain off in lieu of making intentional choices.
I hate being negative about my favorite game series, but honestly it feels like the magic of playing Wilds wore off way faster than it did for base World or Rise...

The Zoh Shia update was great, it was a genuinely hard fight. But once you got used to it, it wasn't really an issue

There's also this! The main reason the comic is on hiatus atm is I'm busy making backgrounds and otherwise art directin' on our adventure game c:
We've all been heads-down for a bit, so we were thinking it's time we shared a sneak-peek of something new!

In the first moments of War of the Western Deep, a twilight visitor kicks off Mirren's adventure... but she can't leave the city until she finds an important item in her loft!

some more Azurah warmup doodles from the past couple weeks! Guest starring Krax, for some reason (a krogan OC I'm still rather fond of). #charr #GuildWars2 #MassEffect

Drew this as part of an ongoing attempt to prime the dry ol' art pump. I'm working on my second Aurene legendary and have dusted off a barely-used alt to serve as master artificer for it c: #GW2 #charr
