Bee and I had a great time interviewing Nick! His passion for these characters is infectious. Our goal with these interviews is to get a peek behind the curtain and humanize the work and advocacy it takes to make these projects come to life. Cheers to Sonic x Godzilla!

Happy Sonic x Godzilla 2 day! Grab a copy of the issue, and join us for a very special interview with author @nickmarino.bsky.social ! Thumbnail by ScribbleFish youtu.be/qGnIi0rmDF8

The video game industry has always been volatile (I published Press Reset in 2021!) but the skeleton key to understanding the current state of things is this: Big games now cost 10x to make what they did 15 years ago but most do not generate even close to 10x the revenue. Simple as that

Genuinely one of the most talented, kind, thoughtful people I know. If you enjoyed the art direction of The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog, we all have Ellen to thank for that. Working with them is so effortlessly easy, anyone would be lucky to have them on their team. 💛

Sadly I’m one of the affected members. I love KO_OP and it’s hard to imagine working anywhere else. Manifesting that they get a pitch funded soon so that the studio can keep going strong. Please play Young Suns when it hits steam! If anyone has a concept/2d artist gig after Dec, please let me know!

Rest in peace, Mike McFarland. Had the pleasure of working with him and whenever we exchanged messages/interacted over the years, he was always nothing if not a kind, stand up dude. Seeing everyone’s outpouring of love for him is a testament to how good of a guy he was.

To cap off an intense day that's seen the release of Sonic x Godzilla #2, reviews and responses that've touched my heart, and a great signing at a local comic shop... ...my editors have sent over the first proof of SxG #5! I'm pleased to report that our final issue is a smash.

Have no fear, Amy Rose is here!

Just want to give a huuuuuge warning to any of you avoiding spoilers. There has been a massive leak involving Steam achievements tonight, and it seems real. Achievements for major upcoming games are showing up and they contain massive spoilers. Be very very careful out there!

I do hate that everyone is like “wow the oot remake looks like genAI” like you can just say it looks bad without pissing and shitting on a bunch of actual devs and artists

"Didn't you put the new StarFox on blast?" Yes, but you see, SwitchFox 64x3 was crafted by the enemies of all that is Good and Right in the universe, and it was tailor made to piss me off specifically.* *(b/c media literacy is dead: the above is comedically hyperbolic, fyi) 4/4

one of the more embarrassing strangely common video game fandom behaviours is holding onto resentment over specific IGN reviews decades later. you are 29 years old bro you gotta led the sonic unleashed review go
