G A M E R S!! If we got a dollar for every time a dev threw "See you, space cowboy" into their video game, well, we'd be rich. Join us (and @wakingoni.com) as we fumble through the vintage Cowboy Bebop PS1 rails shooter and its VERY strange PS2 cousin! thebebopbeat.simplecast.com/episodes/vid...

The riso print version - which can be yours for half off by signing up on my patreon this month!

Have you published a comic or graphic novel in the past year? The Dwayne McDuffie Award for Diversity in Comics is now accepting submissions! www.thepopverse.com/comics-dwayn...

I would like to begin researching a deep conversation on Black and Japanese cultural hybridity in contemporary media. I am seeking connections w/ others who can speak from their experience and specialization within these paradigms. Please reach out to me or connect me to new voices! 頑張ります!

For anyone else studying Japanese, where do you get most of your immersion? I am actively seeking language partners and communities for listening/speaking practice.

Japan tickets purchased.. BitSummit, here I come.

Artists! What do you like to use for sticker printing (not StickerMule)?

I was chatting to @anderssonkev.bsky.social about how I split up the facial features on my characters to allow for layered/overlapping animation, so figured I'd share this!

Introduced Japanese to my toddler (3yo) once— she was brushing her teeth and I started counting to 10. Since then, she routinely counts and now makes the occasional request to watch different shows in Japanese (Bluey and now Nightmare Before Christmas) repeating the occasional word heard 🤯

日本語でブルーイはめっちゃ可愛いだ!

I— what?! I am riding the nostalgia train straight to my wallet on this one.

We're stoked to introduce the 'No Gen AI' seal for indie games! Indie devs can use it on their game's store page to assure potential players that their game was made without the use of Generative AI. You can grab it from the Polygon Treehouse website:- www.polygon-treehouse.com/no-gen-ai-seal

I got Balatro’ed

Hey, a graphic novel I worked on is out! Check out Space Chasers by astronaut Leland Melvin, Joe Caramagna & Alison Acton! It's the first in a series of middle grade books about a team of brilliant kids who become astronauts + have an amazing adventure. I loved working on this series so much. 🚀💫

Think I might get into Linux. I always put it to the back of mind and never reconsidered it but wow does it look accessible.
