Here's a little project I've been plugging away at off and on over the last couple of years on my Patreon... drawing a big series of "Platformer" video game characters!
This montage features the first 50 drawings I made! If you'd like a detailed breakdown of who's who, you can find 'em all in this twitter thread. But I encourage you to see how many you can identify first! I pulled characters from throughout all of video game history -- from console, arcade, and PC games. Some of the characters are quite famous, while others are pretty obscure!
I'm still poking away at this project here and there... there are actually another 10 or so that I've already drawn, which I've been sharing with Patreon backers over the last couple of months. And I am sure I will make more when the mood strikes! It's a silly little passion project, but it is my favourite genre of video game. (And yes, in case you are wondering... I have played all of these games at least a little, haha!)
See you on Friday, team!

Boo
And now you know!
This is a spin on an extremely stupid joke that came up with to torment my friends at a con a few years ago. First time I've ever drawn it "properly", though. ENJOY.
Come back on Wednesday for our next comic!

The Word
My friends and fam joked that today's comic is "autobiographical". Wordle got its hooks in me around New Years, and proved to be sort of habit-forming gateway drug. Since then, I've cascaded through dozens of other daily challenge-style games. (Although unlike Dev, I don't still play all of them -- I kinda pick 'em up and put 'em down, with a handful in the daily rotation at any given time.)
These days, my two favourite daily games are ones that aren't mentioned in today's comic! One is Box Office Game... where you try to guess the top five films of a given past weekend using a really fun point-based hint system. And the other is Sonic Heardle, which I enjoy because I am embarassingly good at it. (You know you have a problem when you can identify the Sonic Mega Collection art gallery menu music from a one second audio sample.)
Come back on Monday for our next comic!
