Woah! We're working hard to get Comix Cleric into your hands, but if you want to be part of the discussion and get extra updates and to meet other comic creators, consider joining the Comix Cleric Discord! We'd love to have you along as we work to create what we hope is the future of webcomics!

We also did a Q&A you can check out, and we'll be making some big announcements in the near future! We hope you'll check us out. :)

If you want to learn more about Comix Cleric, our solution to hosting a site for your comic YOUR way, you can find the info here! We're a small group who've been in the webcomic space for YEARS making our own works, and our #1 priority is ensuring creators get the services and tools they deserve.

Platforms like #Webtoon and #Tapas are already known for becoming overly-corporatized, having poor pay & working conditions for creators, and using AI where it doesn't belong. Welcome to the club, #GlobalComix! We're feeling more and more confident about launching #ComixCleric every day. :)

Speaking of working hard & Brawl in the Family, Matthew Taranto's new kickstarter is LIVE for Paper Plates! This brand new fan-made cookbook is inspired by the delicious meals in Paper Mario and is worth checking out if you're a fan of either Paper Mario, Brawl in the Family, or just delicious food!

We're hard at work but it IS Steam Next Fest...what's worth looking into whenever we have time to rest? If you're a #gamedev with a game in the Next Fest, share your game! We'd love to check some out!

Did I make my own level editor? You bet! It's a lot more complete since the Frogun days, too! #gamedev #indiedev #lowpoly

Speaking of the classic musical comics, what about a little WIP preview of the built-in audio player for "How the King Stole Christmas"? Being able to include audio alongside a comic can elevate the experience, and we're excited to offer it. This is still in development, and may change!

We've been doing a lot of work behind the scenes to help get BitF back online and using a platform dedicated to both readers and creators! I want to thank them for being so gracious and patient with us during this! Development takes a lot of time and effort, and I'm glad just to help any way I can!

We're pleased to announce an exciting partnership! 11 Years after its final update, we're happy to announce that the legendary webcomic "Brawl in the Family" will be released from the archive. Soon over 600 comics, including the classic musical comics, will return using Comix Cleric!

TEARSCAPE RELEASE DATE TRAILER WISHLIST ON STEAM

Yasumi "The World Has Not Improved In The Last 30 Years" Matsuno

Keeping a steady schedule is a big part of being any type of content creator, but especially for #webcomics! It may be an obvious addition, but being able to set a release date is an important feature for Comix Cleric!

As far as "Comment/Favorite" systems are concerned, we have plans for them, but they might not be available on initial release. We definitely love fan engagement, but setting up a user account system for readers is a bit tricky! Once we figure things out, we'll be sure to add it in.

Important that not all comics are in English! There are plans for having a toggle that you can use to switch between multiple versions of a comic page, whether it's multiple languages, different perspectives, etc.

We haven't considered bulk updates, since some comic updates (especially Webtoon-formatted ones) can be built up using multiple files. We'll look into it though! However, you CAN bulk-UPLOAD all your files into CC, and retroactively date them to their proper release dates.

The paid version of CC will be cheap, include hosting, and have additional features before they're released to the DIY version. It will be updated more frequently than the free version. There will also be pricing tiers for beta-testing features, and for setting up a CC site with custom features.

The "DIY" version will always be free and open-source. It will contain everything you need to spin up your own site with Comix Cleric and host it wherever you'd like. It will be updated a couple of times per year with bug fixes and additional features. It's basically the "stable" version of CC.

We <3 open-source projects, but we also need to make sure we can fund our future projects. So, our current plan is to have 2 CC versions: - A free, open-source "DIY" version that you can spin up yourself. - A paid, closed-source version where we host it for you with extra features. More details ⬇️

- For a release date, we're planning to launch by the end of the year! - There is not a roadmap yet, BUT we can definitely create one when we make the main Comix Cleric website. (Soon!) - We will allow more customized site-wide layouts/themes, but we haven't considered it for individual pages.

Honestly, we kinda forgot to make a website for Comix Cleric to explain everything. It's now on our To-Do List. As far as previews/demos go, we're working with some creators to show off a live site in the near future! We also have a Discord server for CC! To join, send me a DM asking for the link.

And not just for mobile layouts, either! Got a page-driven comic and are worries about mobile readers? Don't worry: We'll be adding in zoom-in features so you can get a closer look at the art and read full pages without boxing creators into the Infinite Scroll! #webcomics #WIP #comics #webtoon

We want YOUR questions! Comix Cleric is a lot of work! If you write #webcomics and want to know more! We want to know..well, what you want to know! Have a question about how uploads work? Our mascot? The naming? Feel free to ask whatever, we'll do our best to answer as we can! #WIP #artists

As mentioned before, Comix Cleric's native mobile view is GREAT for reading webcomics on the go, with no additional setup! Sometimes you just wanna lay in bed scrolling a new webcomic for 4 hours and forget the world. #WIP #webcomics

Adding pages to your comic is easier than ever. With scheduled posts, a reactive preview, the option to add video/audio, and more being added constantly, Comix Cleric work is progressing nicely! We're excited to share more soon!

My partner and I (2/4th of SNW) are both trans and attempting to leave the US (I’m also an Arab immigrant). It’s extremely expensive, so please consider buying our game/leaving it a review so that we have some sort of income when we inevitably have to make the jump and start over. Thank you.

Calling video game industry folks! You know the Strong Museum of Play, right? The museum that understands us & is documenting OUR history? Federal budget shenanigans have them in a surprise $500K hole. If you're able to support them, now's the time. Here's the link: www.museumofplay.org/support/

#GameDev Protip: Tired of pesky warnings while working? We found an easy solution!

A crossword written by one of Panel Party's members??? Well now you HAVE to play!

I am thrilled to share that we raised $105,788 through the No ICE in California Charity Bundle to support RAICES and Immigrant Defenders Law Center! A heartfelt THANK YOU to every single person who helped make this happen!! What an incredible community effort!

A good dashboard makes all the difference for keeping track of your webcomic! At a glance, having all of your information ready to view is always nice, and being able to quickly see recent comments helps to connect you to your community! We're close to showing even more! #webcomics #artists #indev

One of the things that makes Webcomics so great is how much personality each comic has, and we want to showcase that. An important part of Comix Cleric was the ability to find a theme that works for you! The below video shows a few previews we've made while in development, and is subject to change.

What if I told you that we've been working on Comix Cleric slowly and steadily for the past few months? And what if I ALSO told you there are some super slick things we could be showing off VERY soon?

Even with everything going on right now, this is still a worthy cause! They're 89k, only 11k away from their goal! Its easy to get buried with everything going on in the world, but there are people trying to do good and that's important to remember!

📦 Only the fastest draw survives in the Flatlands... Think you can outduel the competition? Cardboard Cowboy brings cutthroat (and corrugated) western action where every shot counts. 🤠 Saddle up in 2026! 🌊 Cardboard Cowboy was a Rising Tide Challenge Judges' Pick winner! Launch trailer below!

If you want to actually solve the problem, instead of punishing itch, start calling payment cos Collective Shout, which is run by people who get published by Spinifex, a very terf-seeming organization, apparently needed 1,000 people to yell at visa to get this done. We got more than 1000 people.

if you're looking to do meaningful games coverage via a video format - twitch, youtube, or even shortform - @aqualounge.tv (which i run) wants to hear from you. we're looking to build out a team and fairly share what we make. here's a mission statement. youtu.be/rToBk5jTh_Y

Working on a new transition between menus for my incremental clicker game! You'll be able to see the bosses you've defeat and open a gate to hell (?). Who knows! #gamedev #indiedev #godotengine #videogame #incremental #clicker #hell

We shadowdropped Descenders Next today and we're having a pretty pleasant evening <3
