Well, it finally happened...I missed a month. Aaagh! Work has been killing me with a lot of 40-50, almost 60 hour weeks, so I've hardly had time for anything at all! There are certainly things I want to talk about at length suitable for this site...
I'm happy to redirect you to my latest drawings, including Avatar Pavi, Metal Sonic, and here are a bunch of general recent sketches!
Also, I have a fun new YouTube video with gameplay from Monster Hunter 2 Dos, which was so much fun! Thanks to friend Aubrey for all the guidance. I haven't been able to play much more due to work, but I really want to because old MH is great!
That's really all the time I've got today... once things slow down for the holidays, I'm sure I can squeeze some writing in with my drawing and reading~

Happy birthday to playingps2 dot xyz! That's me! Well, I'm actually writing this the day before in an attempt to make sure everything is ready.
Let's start with the main event, I have a BIIIG new article for you all about Starwalker! From Deltarune! This was originally a script for YouTube, but I decided against doing it that way. It probably wasn't gonna be that good of a video anyhow. I haven't had the time to put together a site retrospective like I have in previous years, so I hope this will suffice!
A lot of this year has been about doing some other stuff...as I've probably stated too many times, I'm really trying to do better with drawing. And I think that's been going well enough, but it's taken time and focus away from a lot of other things. But it's awesome! I'm making improvement in my art all the time. It's a battle, for sure, but I'm fairly proud of how I've grown in that regard. It was either that or keep studying JavaScript and web design/development haha. Why am I all over the place like this?!
We have a new mascot Digimon on the page, Pegasmon! I couldn't find a sprite of MagnaAngemon I liked, so I decided to side-digivolve. Armor Evolutions are really cool...
Oh, I've been doing a replay of Final Fantasy 8, instead of 7. I really like that game a lot, it's definitely article worthy but it'd be a tall task, and the quirks of the game design in it are fairly well known. So, I'm not sure if I'll do that. We'll see!
I'm happy to be here and have this site, it seems like not long ago I was just curiously trying to get this up at all. If you've ever ready any articles, or been here for any reason, I thank you greatly!

Yo! Well, September is always a special month around here. While it's still hot as hell around here, September is the birth month of this site and it'll be turning THREE YEARS OLD! That's a really nice feeling, though I'm not sure yet what special thing I could do to celebrate...
I saw Coyote vs Acme a few nights ago and I was just dying to talk about it! We're doing something a little different though, this article has an audio companion on YouTube! So click through to see that. I dunno if I'll do more things like that, but I am working on a big video exclusive next. Just had to get Coyote vs Acme out of my system.
I've done some drawings lately that I'm quite proud of, here's one of beloved Lum, and here's one with Deltarune's famous PINK! or Ghost... I like calling her Maddie personally!
I dunno if I'll do articles about them, but I'm trying to finish a genocide run of Undertale, and also I started a new save on Final Fantasy 7...okay, gotta blast, bye!

Heeey! Well, no need to explain my infrequent appearances as it's all the same. I wrote my own new article though, and it's about DELTARUNE! It's not a full review, but a sort of pseudo-sequel to my Undertale article where I compare and contrast a little bit. Spoiler alert though, I LOVE Deltarune!
I can't help but think my writing skills have totally taken a nosedive...I mean, they were never amazing, but good gravy! Well, it's a complicated topic, in that all of the elements work together, I feel, to make Deltarune really exceptional. So let's just say this one was done in a conversational style...hehe.
This is only sort of related and cool, but I was able to perform and upload an accepted speedrun of Deltarune, Chapter 1! It's an awesome game to speedrun, short and sweet, and I do feel a sense of pride that I'm on there at all. A lot of us gamers (...it feels gross to say the word gamers...) enjoy speedrunning, so I'm happy to have buckled down and actually done the work of learning a run and getting it timed and recorded.
Thank you all for everything, and see you on the web!

My monthly reappearance is here! Barely...hehe.
Let's start with the biggest thing that happened to me this June. I had a few small hit comics over on my beloved Bluesky. To be honest, getting a laugh out of a few people with some drawings is one of the highest honors for me. I feel like a cartoonist! What could be better than that?
Speaking of artwork, I have updated our desktop sidebar images to have some of MY OWN ARTWORK! It's something I always dreamed of...Lum deserves a vacation after faithfully serving the site for nearly 3 years! Hopefully there are no major glitches or problems here...! I've also taken some time today to clean up the category menus. You should see some bigger fonts and images, especially on mobile. My testing seems like it's okay, but again, hopefully no glitches ^_^;. Lastly for site updates, I have (for now) taken away the link to the Guestbook. It's a sorta broken feature that's run somewhere else, so I'm really okay losing it for now.
Now, if I can only figure out how to code a burger menu...
I want to say thank you to everyone who read Ms. Schofield's piece from last month, earning this site a mention on the highly esteemed Critical Distance!
I also went two TWO cons this month! I talked about HeroesCon again, in video form this time. It was a big year for me cause I got some cool SIGGYS!!!
See y'all later!

Thank you to my social media manager for holding the fort down! This is the REAL Jane Parker...
Anyway, big news for fans of reading and transgender writers, ASHLEY SCHOFIELD IS OUR LATEST GUEST FOR EMOTION ENGINE! As I say in my intro, it's crazy that we could book a known writer like this! Ashley comes aboard to discuss her disappointment with how Telltale's Guardians of the Galaxy drops the ball with its handling of grief in the story. I'm actually quite fond of when people critique the stories in games...I'm sure this will be as much a treat for you as it was for me!
By the way, I decided to add Ashley's signature font to the site for her article. It's been literal years since I had to add a font to the site...so it was good to do just the barest little webmastering again. I know you can embed fonts (like, say, Google Fonts) and download them in your header, but the way I do it is to have them hosted here as files on the server. Is one way better than the other?
What I want do to, while I focus on some other things, is have MORE guest articles to fill in! I don't really have a large audience or anything, but I'd like to think I could help nurture some budding writer out there. I'm still working out what the exact process for this is gonna be. I only have so much budget for writers, and I don't know if I want just anyone to be able to submit. So, hm...
Last thing for now, I did this cool drawing of Tentomon! It's an honor to draw Digimon, even unofficially!

Howdy Jane fans! It's me, the well known yet rare character of Jane's social media manager. Bluesky is basically down, so I have nothing to manage right this moment.
So, it's been basically a month since this site was updated. Jane has some article ideas, but she's been pretty fixated with drawing lately. This has excited her and taken up a lot of her free time. There was a post back in January, but you can most easily see her drawings on Newgrounds, a site she's very fond of! She's telling me that so far her April art is "lowkey flames."
There's a new YouTube video too. Jane goes over some of her Darkstalkers comic collection! I wonder when she's gonna do a more elaborate video or another short. I liked the shorts... but anyway, yes. Jane is putting a lot on her plate lately, so I'm rooting for her!

I saw that the site hadn't been updated in three weeks...it made me feel so bad! My poor, neglected baby...
Hehe. So, I've had TWO new videos. One of which is a low quality, mostly improv rant about how much I hate AI slop. I had fun making that, but I don't see myself doing that much in the future. On the comics side of things, you can see my pickups from the Charlotte Mini-Con! I'm still really sorry that we didn't get much footage of the actual event. How do the pros do it? Do they have like a chest or head strap and a camera? I have no idea...haha.
I also recently quite enjoyed Marvel Cosmic Invasion. I've also gotten back into playing 3rd Strike with a good friend. I gotta say, Pokopia has me eyeballing a Switch 2. I found out that it actually IS the same developer as Dragon Quest Builders! I never got to play the second, but I loved the first one.
The Mercari sales I mentioned last time have gone REALLY WELL! I'm going to talk about that as a video I think instead of a text post. Maybe. We'll see.
