According to the 2010 R&C Calendar, this week is Intergalactic Protopet Awareness week.

The fact that it's an INTERGALACTIC holiday speaks to the level of terror and destruction these hastily-released GE pets wreaked across the Bogon galaxy!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Ratchet firing the RYNO II at some Megacorp Commando robots, and some ravenous blue Protopets.

Happy Mother's Day everyone! Thought I'd share some official artwork of Ratchet's mother:

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
A fully transparent 1x1 pixel. The joke is that we have no idea what Ratchet's mother looks like. We also don't know her name, if she and Kaden were married, or even if they were in a happy and loving relationship in the first place!

According to the 2010 Ratchet & Clank calendar, today, April 22nd, is Temporal Paradox Awareness Day! Please remember that the Great Clock is not meant to alter time, only to keep it!

According to the 2010 Ratchet & Clank calendar, today is the birthday of "That robot guy", Big Al!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Screenshot of Big Al from Ratchet & Clank 2002 with a big, nerdy smile on his face. Screenshot of Big Al pointing with a slight grin on his face, this time from Ratchet & Clank 2016

According to the 2010 calendar, today is Tachyon Appreciation Day! This is the day Ratchet first landed on Cobalia in Tools of Destruction. Thanks to a later date (Polaris Independence Day on May 14th), we know that ToD's events took place over 35 days!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Vertical poster for Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, featuring Tachyon's face and tall red crown. Ratchet is visible in the reflection of the crown's gemstone.

Today, April 1st, is Captain Qwark's birthday according to the 2010 R&C calendar! No more fitting day, except perhaps February 29th.

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
The PS2 and PS3 models of Captain Qwark, both pointing finger guns at the view with a goofy and proud smile on their faces.

You may have noticed posts have been sporadic lately, as @kbabz.bsky.social has been quite busy working on the AC Shadows collectibles guides for IGN. So! Here's Helga showing us EXACTLY how many polygons are in her PS2 mug!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
EXTREME close-up of Helga's angry face, baring her teeth as she lays into what she feels is Ratchet and Clank's pathetic performance on her fitness course.

According to the 2010 calendar, today is the birthday of Skidd McMarxx! (or Skid McMarx, it changes after the first game).

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Character art of Skidd McMarxx, a green alien skateboarder in flip-flops, jorts, a tiedie shirt, and a red visor raised above his eyebrows.

Chat, is Clank cool now?

(please say yes)

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Big Al present Clank with the Heli-Pack upgrade, turning his arms into propellers and adding a giant propeller shaft sticking out of his head.

Big All just needs his fee, for service. Hmm, giving some real Moneybags vibes here!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
A large, portly cat-like alien named Al stands behind his desk, with robot parts behind him. He smiles with his finger in the air, pointing out his upgrade services have a small fee.

According to the 2010 Ratchet & Clank calendar, today is Dr. Nefarious' birthday! It's also the start of the Ameoboid Revolution, which lasts for the next three days. Quite coincidental, considering Nefarious may have created them!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Wallpaper of Dr. Nefarious, a skinny purple robot humanoid with a long spiky back tendrils, and a white skull-like face with a tall green glass dome on top. Darla Gratch, a robot reporter for Channel 2 News, signs off as a large green slime creature approaches her to eat her.

Today's Perfect Ratchet Shot is the duo disembarking to explore Metropolis!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Ratchet stands at the side of the large green Courier Ship, looking back over his shoulder as Clank slides over the side of the cockpit to join him.

Ratchet begins his adventure anew in the Courier Ship!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
A large green ship in the bottom right prepares to take off from a landing pad on a lush green planet on a sunny day.

Ratchet's never SEEN anybody that freaked out!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Ratchet, talking to Clank, waves his hands back and forth to emphasize to Clank how freaked out Skidd McMarxx was in the video they just watched.

The PS2 is 25 years old today! Here's a shot of Ratchet playing, well, himself!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Ratchet & Clank sit on sofas in their garage. Ratchet is playing the original Ratchet game, but has sat out of his chair to he can skip the cutscene.

According to the 2010 #RatchetAndClank calendar, today is Bring Your Snagglebeast To Work Day! Which Qwark unfortunately did do in 2002:
A huge green monster with sharp teeth, glowing blue eyes, and chains stands inside a red-lit cave.

Eject! EJECT!!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Security camera footage inside the cockpit of a spaceship. Two green aliens in the front seats are visibly panicking as a bright red missile heads straight for them.

A guy sliding down a sewer pipe!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
The top of a very large waterworks pipe, which looks like the top of a water slide. A portly grey alien in brown overalls is diving into the pipe.

Today's Perfect Ratchet Shot is the Plumber's crack, running on real hardware, upscaled to 4K with sharp pixels.

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
A wide grey alien in brown overalls bends over away from the camera, prominently displaying his butt at the camera. He's working on some pipes and in a grumbly mood.

Happy Monday everyone! Today's shot is Ratchet showing his appreciation towards Novalis' Planetary Chairmanshipliness!
Ratchet awkwardly points finger guns to someone off-screen.

Looks like I forgot again yesterday! Here's a shot of the Mayor of Novalis (Buckwash in the reimagining) giving Ratchet & Clank an Infobot in exchange for not killing them! (don't worry, they were never going to).

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Screenshot of Ratchet & Clank. The Mayor of Novalis, at the foot of his ship's ramp, gives Ratchet and Clank an Infobot.

Today's Perfect Ratchet Shot is Ratchet crashing his first ship on Novalis! It was debated within Insomniac how exactly Ratchet did that, but the last frame of this shot may reveal the truth: he didn't have his appendages on the steering mechanism!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
A blue spaceship flies towards the camera, cockpit in plain view. On the right, Ratchet is panicking with his hands in the air, while Clank on the left appears to be trying to take control of the vessel.

Half an hour left in the day, but it still counts! Today's Perfect Ratchet Shot is the frame where Clank earned the name that would stick with him for the rest of his life!

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Exterior view of a ship looking into the cockpit. Clank, the silver robot, is falling sideways, clanking his head onto the sidewall.

Hmm, wonder who this shadowy figure could be? Edwina???

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Drek, standing in front of a view of space, waves his hand to tell a shadowy figure to dispense of Ratchet and Clank.

Breaking the chronological formula today! I just did Oltanis, which contains my absolute FAVOURITE joke in the Ratchet games, to this day.

"You can always trust Gadgetron quality! Or my name's not...
...
...
...Steve..."

#RatchetAndClank #InsomGamesCommunity
Captain Qwark with an awkward expression on his face. In the background are the rainy, glum ruins of Oltanis.
