Did you know? APWOT originally started as a student zine all the way back in 2014! 👀

The original self made publication used a limited colour palette, came in two sizes, was about 20 pages and was made in just under 2 weeks. We've come a long way to having Astro Bot and Playstation on the cover! 🤖

FWIW, you can do a pledge over time option on Kickstarter to spread your payment out over 3 months, if it’s helpful to you!
Absolutely stunning. I wish I could afford this.

When you support APWOT, you support freelance writers like myself! Go pick up any volume and I guarantee you’ll be blown away by the quality of both the writing and design.

Now that Donkey Kong has swung back into the spotlight with a bold new 3D platformer, @radishgames.com revisits the ape’s first fully 3D game – Donkey Kong 64 – with members of the original Rare team behind the colourful collectathon like Grant Kirkhope, Mark Stevenson and George Andreas 🦧

The new APWOT arrived yesterday and it's simply marvelous to hold and read. I may be a touch biased having worked on multiple issues, but @cazwis.bsky.social produces a wonderful product and you should totally check out the Kickstarter for the next issue: @apwot.bsky.social. Print ain't dead.
