I’m attempting to draw my own comic/manga. So here I scream into the void. If you’re reading this, thank you for taking the time to do so. Still quite a broken record I am.

Nothing is more depressing than watching young artists give other young artists advice like “only use one colour palette in everything you do to have a more recognizable brand” and “draw everything with a target audience in mind”

I’m up to the thumbnails for the third chapter of my comic. So that’s good… however I know that I have to soon show some of it and I’m pretty scared. Just too much time listening to my inner critic, considering the state of everything in the world it might be safer to keep listening to that devil.

The poster compiling all “100 games of Steam 2025” is taking far longer than I first thought it would. I can’t seem to find a good way to order them that isn’t boring. I’ll still be putting it together but I unfortunately need to focus on drawing my comic now. Sorry for letting you all down.

I had a little break yesterday, and just played Vigil the longest night (it’s been in my backlog forever). Back to the drawing today though, and I should be ready in 2026 to release the first chapter of my comic. I imagine that’ll go down like a lead balloon but we will see in the new year.

I can’t believe that I’ve managed to finish my self imposed drawing challenge “100 games of Steam 2025” It’s a pretty neat feeling, I’m going to start making the poster tomorrow and expect to see it in the new year. The last game is Imaginary Friend Institution. #steam #ImaginaryFriendInstitution

The main character from the game Imaginary Friend Institution.

Today was a pretty good Christmas that I almost forgot to draw for my self imposed drawing challenge “100 games of Steam 2025” but I didn’t, but I also didn’t plan out a game for the Christmas season. Today’s game is Sushi Ben. #steam #SushiBen

The main character from the game Sushi Ben.

Tips: moving from Xitter to Bsky

Before you start following people, fill out your profile! Bio, PFP, banner, and post at least 5 to 10 things. Just reuse your top 10 banger tweets—recycling is encouraged! This way, people will know you aren’t a bot, will see what you are about, and might follow back.

Turn off NSFW filters in Settings > Moderation > Enable Adult Contentand at the bottom on Settings > Moderation > Bluesky Mod Service

Find your friends from the hellsite using Sky-Follower-Bridge.devNot perfect, but it will find the majority of the people you were following.Beware of fake tools that ask for money!

Follow a few feeds related to your interests. In bsky you choose what kind of content you want to see. You can pin feeds (into tabs) to the top of your timeline, and you always have access to the Following feed which shows nothing but who you choose to follow.

Block often. Don’t interact with trolls. Don’t quote dunk, comment, nothing. Let them rot in silence, take away their oxygen and they’ll asphixiate. This is the Bsky way.

Turn off language filters in Settings > Languages > Content Languages
Or you won’t see posts from anyone in Japan, Germany, etc, in your feeds, even if they only post a cool image with no text. Weird, but trust me on this one. Uncheck all to see all posts.

Fuck content scrapers. Do not let that trash overwhelm this site, do not share their stolen content. You can block them all with two clicks by going to joabaldwin.com/scrapers and on the top-right clicking on Subscribe > Block Accounts (I know, “Subscribe” is an odd thing to name it, but that’s how block lists work).

Use alt text to make images accessible. Helps for translations, readability, findability, and users with slow internet. Turn on Settings > Accessibility > Require alt text before posting

It takes time to rebuild, but the best time to do it is right now. Use your last tweets to tell everyone to move, then stop posting. Twitter is a Nazi/AI/bot/crypto cesspit.

Finally my internet is back on! 45 minutes late, most annoying for posting a drawing a day for my self imposed drawing challenge “100 games of Steam 2025” Deeply sorry about that but unfortunately sometimes things are beyond our control. Yesterday’s game was Constance. #steam #Constance

The main character from the game Constance.

Today I’ve not done much. Mostly just doodling, but I have kept to my self imposed drawing challenge “100 games of Steam 2025” (I really need to proof read my posts before posting them, sorry a few spelling mistakes where made before) Today’s game is Kingdoms of the Dump. #steam #KingdomsOfTheDump

The main character from the game Kingdoms of the Dump.

I’m still not going my reasons for choosing each game in my self imposed drawing challenge “100 games of Steam 2025” as I would like people to make up their own minds about each of them. Today’s game is Psycutlery. #steam #Psycutlery

The main “frog” from the game Psycutlery.

I’m still keeping up with my self imposed drawing challenge “100 games of Steam 2025” Not sure if I should reword that but then again it might be the first one of these someone sees, so I’ll leave it for now. Today’s game is Ghosting Vandal. #steam #GhostingVandal

The main character from the game Ghosting Vandal.

Still drawing a game each Sunday for the remaining of this year for “upcoming Steam games I’m looking forward to” I’ve got to come up with a better name for that. This is the fifth of seven and the game is GearGrit. #steam #GearGrit

The main goblin from the upcoming game GearGrit.
