i gotta put my debut (my new electricopolis comic) into the SPX website but like. im super super nervous. it's not in color and i don't think it belongs there quality-wise. you know, just standard imposter syndrome stuff

I am very proud to announce that our English translation patch of London Spirit Detectives is now done and released on GitHub. Thanks to aishsha, bigbanana23, Cash Ogawa, Pennywise, Ryusui, TheMajinZenki and vervalkon What a wonderful project! See reply for details.

i think that sometimes text can be more impactful if you don't highlight it or make it all caps or increase the font size or use the paper mario wiggle

instead of embracing our freedom from industry norms and restrictions, NA indie comics has chosen to create an Industry 2 where we enforce New Norms And Restrictions. and i strongly believe that this is bad for art. the beauty of indie comics lies in our freedom, not a prestigious fair or publisher.

the existing indie comics culture is, in large parts, built upon prestige and legitimacy-seeking and career-building, upon gatekeeping and pretension and tastemaking and curation. i'm not saying any of this is evil. but there is a reason why the community remains niche while comiket looks like this

Also, according to the notes on the GitHub page: "No generative AI or LLMs have touched, nor will touch, any part of this translation project. All code for my custom tools, all ASM hacks, all graphics edits, and particularly the translated script, were created manually." 💖

I'm trembling while writing this: Kamaitachi no yoru—not the PC remake, not the iOS port, but the actual original SFC version—has been translated at last by ButThouMust, who graciously brought us an English patch for Otogirisou in the past. This is HISTORICAL.

Even three years after release, people are still saying such wonderful things about my game. I guess I really did make a pretty good one. I have plenty of ideas left, so I’d love to make more games like this someday. store.steampowered.com/news/app/256...
