played the 20-minute demo, and the mix of hacking and shooting really grew on me. in 2026, a single-player third-person shooter now feels like a charming throwback to the early Obama era of gaming

a 2nd Fangamer Japan shop just opened along with the brand new Kyoto GiGO arcade, and I drew new mural art! All the same characters as the Shibuya store, but with a Kyoto twist. This is my favourite city to visit in Japan so I'm honoured to have my art there!

it's more important than ever to support creators/teams via Patreons and Kickstarters, and also by purchasing their games instead of waiting for them to float onto services like Game Pass and PlayStation Plus

RIP Catherine O’Hara. always wondered why she was supposed to be a guest voice on the classic Simpsons episode "Flaming Moe's," but the producers opted to go for the temp track actor (Jo Ann Harris) instead. a nation in mourning demands they release the tapes
