Had three more comics go up since the last news post. "Topical" was a way back joke about the Michael Richards thing. A very timely joke I don't blame people for not getting off the bat. Next week I hope to lampoon something relevant like the Great Depression.
"Poetic" was more of a filler than anything. I was working on a comic that got scrapped after it was finished. Just didn't get the message across like I would have wanted to so I trashed it, and it was not funny. Shame all the work was put into it though. WHATEVS THO. Lets do a link round up.

 Was this comic supposed to be up last week? Probably! Such is the holidays. I am Bread is a fun little indie game from the guys who made Surgeon Simulator. You play a piece of bread controlled with QWOP style movement. Trying various ways to toast yourself while still remaining edible. I'd recomend picking it up on discount with Steam as it goes on sale every now and again.
 Speaking of older games I'm only now getting into.
Freedom Planet is fucking awesome. This game feels like what Sonic should have been. By focusing level design on platforming first and speed second, it generally makes it more fun play. As well showing a lot of thought put into each level by way of puzzles, bosses, and especially the art.
One thing especially to note is that the story is fully (and very well) voice acted. Which is rare and appreciated for a title like this.
TLDR; I love this game GET IT.

Ha, sorry. I've been making comics and no news posts. Had a new VG Cats two weeks ago. If I could make all my comics about Mario I would. It's the only series my wife and I ever play with our son. Featuring such characters as Maroo! Weegi! And who could forget Bad Guy Maroo!
As well two new Super Effectives. Sorry I've missed VG Cats the past week but I wanted to get Super Effective going again. Should be back on schedual next Monday.
Merry Christmas everyone!

New Comic two weeks ago and a new comic this week! Sorry this one was supposed to go up last week. Got a bit busy though. Also totally related we're having twins! On one hand I really do love being a father. Nothing makes me happier than spending time with my family.
On the other hand. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Sorry for the
delay again! I just wanted to make sure I
got this comic right. Back to vidja games
after this. I honestly didn't plan on making
a three parter. Though after the first one I
figured it could make a short story out of it.
Ended up being fun to do. Just sooo much planing.
Also New Shirt!
Pick
it up here at Shark Robot! Now for some
link round up:

New VG Cats!
A quick look into Leo's childhood.
 Should
probably do a quick newspost about last weeks
comic. Five
Nights at Freddy's is a fun and cheap ($5)
game that will scare the shit out of you.
You play a Security Guard stuck in your room
guarding the pizza place. The restaurant has
these Animatronic animals that come to life
and fuck with you and eventually try to kill
you. You've got limited power to fend them off
by checking where they are on the camera feed,
lighting up blind spots, and if you need to
shut the doors.
I've only played it a bit because I'm a giant
weeny but, I do recommend getting it for yourself.
It's an experience.
ON TO OTHER NEWS.
There are
two neat Kick Starters going on right now to
check out: to check out:
|
|
Nefarious!
A fun looking 2D Platformer with stylish
art where you play the bad guy and capture
Princesses. As well princesses you capture
will have different effects on playstyle.
I really am just a sucker for any game where
you can play the villain. Here's hoping
it gets funded! (only 10 days left)
Check
out more about it here. |
Ray's
the Dead
This project is already funded but it's
not too late to get in on the rewards/early
access. It's an odd mix of a game. RTS,
Puzzle and beat 'em up all mixed into
one but, still very easy to get into.
It's always tough to break into the Zombie
genre this late in the game but Ray's
the dead does it well.
Check
it out here!

New
VGC Comic!
 Shovel
Knight is an awesome game. Beautiful art,
catchy music, and great controls. It's also
one of those experiences where if you die a
lot, or are stuck then it's probably your fault.
Totally up to you to get better. Which is one
of the reasons I find it so fun. Even if I suck.
THAT BEING SAID... I Highly recommend picking
it up (Steam,
Wii
U, 3DS).
Also we have a new shirt! The
Blue Shell.
(Actually we've had it in the store for a while
I've just forgot to post about it. :B)

Ha sorry, forgot
to bring stuff I needed to make newsposts with
me to LA. So lets see what we have here. Had
Guest Artist
Cal Moray help me with a quick WatchDogs
comic. This week we've got a new Super
Effective and VG
Cats! Sorry, I play too much Animal Crossing.
 So
lets do a quick wrap up of E3. Um... It happened
I guess. PlayStation
and Microsoft
had a smattering of things but nothing really
standout. Nintendo had the better presentation.
Opting for a
direct video event rather than a stage presentation.
I'm all for this.
 Highlights?
- Batman
Arkham Knight is back in Rocksteady's hands.
High hopes for this one.
- Yoshi's
Wooly Worlds looks adorable.
- Halo
for Sony Destiny is going to be super
fun.
- Dead
Island Trailer was awesome even if the game
might be shit.
- Open
world Zelda... Zelder Scrolls?
- Splatoon,
Nintendo's new IP. Shoot 'em up with squids.
Love the art style but the game doesn't interest
me much.
- Also theres Project
Spark
Game of the show was and continues to be Smash
Bros 4. Here are the trailers we saw then and
since the show:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Miis
join the battle!
|
|
Pacman
hungers for Battle!
|
Lucina
wakes her Blade?!/ Robin brings the Thunder!
|
I'd be happy with the
Amiibos just to collect. Playing with them
in game is like a secondary thought.

Sorry,
ended up scrapping an E3 Comic as it was too much
like an
old Hejibits. Good thing I was working on
two comics this week! Didn't know what I'd be
doing for E3 (if at all) so I worked on another
backup comic just to be sure. AH, PREPAREDNESS.
Should have this one done later today. Apologies!
Oh and I forgot to mention, I
did a comic last week too. If this one looks
a little shwang-wang-wang (literately I guess),
that's because I blew out my Cintiq power adapter
a panel at Anime North. Whoops. So I had to draw
this one the old fashion way with pencil and pen.
Of which I've VERY out of practice.
BTW thanks to everyone who came to the last two
conventions! I had a lot of fun. Special thanks
to the person who paid in Bison
dollars. I love having that in my wallet.
For now have some non-E3 links!
Sorry! I'll do a proper E3 post when I'm a bit
more awake. Lates!

 New
comic! So I picked up a Surface Pro 2 for
the road. Figured it'd act like a small workstation
and let me finish the comic. NOPE. As drawing
tablets go it's crap. As a small PC its decent
but marred by the fact it runs Windows 8. However
if you were thinking of using it for the express
purpose of drawing, don't get it.
The native resolution is far too high and pen
controls far too imprecise. There's a definite
lag when drawing, and while the pen pressure is
good you will have trouble hitting your mark.
You'll also NEED a separate keyboard when using
photoshop. There are no physical quick buttons
you can map on the tablet and the on screen keyboard
is terrible.
I don't know if I'm being too hard on it but,
it was just such a disappointment.

Been
a great many weeks of updates, but I'm going to
have to miss it this week. My last two cons this
year are back to back and I got a little stressed
out and just took some time off with family. Happy
Scott = More comics! I'll have it up this coming
Monday though. Then back on schedule with regular
updates.
 So
the cons! The first is Anime
Central in Rosemont (Chicago). It's
been about 4 or 5 years since I've gone.
So it'll be fun to be back.
My booth is located at 813
which is right
here. |
 Oh
and Anime
North! By the Airport in Toronto at
the Toronto
Congress Center.
Got a Panel that I'm not sure yet when but
I'll post here when I do.
So you there!
EDIT: Sunday Morning at 1:00 PM in the Double
Tree Hotel across from the convention. Halton
Room.

Had
a new comic go up last week. This weeks
comic should be up a bit later today. Convention
stuff pushed back work time a bit. Sorry about
that. Which by the way thanks for coming down
for! Panel kind of exploded in technical problems
so we played Nintendoland on my WiiU for the
hour. Which was super fun.
Edit: Its
up!

OMG
NEW COMIC.. That's like 100 weeks in a row!
I can't count, or read, or write. How am I even
doing this? ALSO
Going to be at the Media Expo this weekend (April
25th-27th) in Detroit. I'll be at the Shark
Robot booth helping out. Come on by and say
hi!
I've got a panel on Saturday, 1PM-2:30PM, (Main
Events Sec. 3). Aand some signings on Friday
and Saturday but you can always just come by
the booth. Where it's its less awkward. Signings
are always so weird. Like visiting the monkey
exibit in a zoo. (don't throw bananas at me)
(unless I'm hungry) (which is always) (I'm fat.)
I wonder if people can tell I'm writing this
at 1 in the morning.... Naaah.

New
comic! Any day I get to draw Isabelle is
a good day. She so fucking adorable.
Also you hear about this new Google
Pokemaster challenge? Did you read about
this, did you hear about this? I don't know
about you but, I play Pokemon so I DON'T have
to go outside. Wow. What a great audience.

New
VG Cats! As
I have said before I love the WiiU but damn,
that poor console.
 The
3DS on the other hand I've been playing quite
a bit of. Finally got my guilty pleasure Animal
Crossing and the addiction begins. I'm just
happy I started with Ankha.
Now if I can just trade Anicotti
for
Kid Cat I'll be all set.
As well Link
between two Worlds is a whole lot of fun.
Easy? Yeah but what modern Zelda isn't. Absolutely
feels like a handheld experience the way dungeons
are shortened, and gameplay are compartmentalized.
I mean if you're sitting down and playing this
on a console it wouldn't be very good, but you're
playing it on the go and it works well for that.
Oh and I forgot to mention we have a new
shirt!
Also, link r-r-r-r-r-round up!
