Logging back in real quick to say that a great way to celebrate Halloween and spooky season in general is to admire @charsiewspace.bsky.social's amazing rendition of monsters (and enjoy also our neat wuxia/ western/ supernatural story). Get MR MEMPHIS now at charsiewspace.gumroad.com/l/xcvVQ

MR MEMPHIS is the first collaboration between myself and my WORK-LIFE BALANCE partner, @charsiewspace.bsky.social. At least one visiting artist to Singapore described it as "fucking awesome." It's going for just US$5, but it would be great if you paid more than that.

The market alone cannot sustain good literature, and no literature will survive the collapse of the biosphere, something thinkable within generations. Not many art discussions, awards, takes will help us escape the machine, but more of them should stick in the gears, and fewer should grease them.
Tell me your most unhinged literary opinion, as a little treat

Your dumb comics (no matter how dumb) can help someone through a difficult time. I got a clear and moving reminder of that in Portland from a reader I met outside of the context of the con. It's that kind of town. Don't give up. Keep making your dumb comics!

The eye exam is the perfect game design. That big E is a great tutorial that teaches you the basic mechanic. But it doesn't baby you and quickly gets hard as they introduce the small and blurry enemies.

I art directed and did graphics on this game. I promise it's something special
It's been a while.
Glad to be announcing a new game, and happy that it is something experimental and weird: a tiny, tense, turn-based strategy game about merging units into spectacular combinations, and then watching them evaporate thousands of bugs.
