So the fact that mega/gigamix Quickman rides the mecha dragon is interesting, because the dragon in the games is actually weak to the Quick Boomerangs. So we started joking about how clearly that's why the dragon obeys Quick.

and then it was requested that I draw this specifically hehe

[JP] Sega Saturn Nostalgia | Friday, 11.22.24

Happy 30th anniversary to the Sega Saturn release in Japan, featuring some of the best (and underrated) titles!

[adokle]

Some draws of chars and stuff from Psycho Fox and Dynamite Dux. And also Reiji Ishioda as a horse.

[indelibleevidence]

If I were the Dragon Age Inquisitor, I'd make sure that the tavern bard just accidentally lost her voice and fingers in a freak knife accident. The songs are just so annoying. 😓

[sonic-candy]

I'm back (ish) + updates

As I said months ago I'll be back by fall, and it looks like my guesstimate was correct! Just a smallish update.

TLDR; Working on Mega/Gigamix (At least one chapter a month) added a link to a fan translation of a doujinshi and added Slime Mori Mori to my TBA list and various minor stuff.

Kinda drifted away from the AB/Tezuka fandom a bit these past few months due to getting into the Kirby Fandom, but I'll never forget my roots.

Due to Team Phoenix getting an official English release, I decided to drop it from my project list. The Marine Express Manga by Ikehara Shigeto (Artist of Mega Man Megamix/Gigamix/Mastermix manga and the Jetter Mars manga) is still on the list to do. As far as Doujinshi goes, I haven't really seen anything that caught my interest.

Shoutout to @meion for translating Prophetic Dream(s)! I added a link to their site on my project list which is in my pinned post!

Speaking of Ikehara Shigeto and Mega Man, I finally started on Gigamix's first chapter. Sense the first chapter is a sequel to a story in Megamix, I decided that was a good way to get back into things. I'll start on Megamix soon, my goal is to do at least one chapter a month. The chapters are insanely long and I use my phone to scan and crop them properly so this sounds like a good goal to reach. No, I did not accidentally scan Gigamix first before the Megamix Vol.2 and realized it while uploading them hahahah.

I recently got into the Kirby fandom (The games, Anime, and the Kirby Manga Mania) these few months so I'll try to get some Doujinshi eventually, but it seems the ones I like are not in stock right now. Kirby Manga Mania is already in English so why bother. I'm not sure if the Japanese scans are available anywhere so maybe I'll work on that?

And lastly, another fandom I semi-gotten into while getting into the Kirby anime fandom is Rocket Slime or Slime Morimori, a spin-off of the Dragon Quest game series I haven't played any of those games nor the Slime Morimori trilogy. (I suck at Mega Man games but that didn't stop me from watching the 90's cartoon via annotations or reading/scanning the mangas) But as you know, I'm a sucker for niche stuff like this so when I found out there was a three-volume manga I decided to add that to my project list as well.

So recap:

Dropped

Team Phoenix (Offical English translation coming soon)

Recent upload(s)

Gigamix Vol.1, Ch.1

Ongoing Soon

Megamix Vol.2, Ch.1

TBA

As always, thank you for the support! If you find my post via tags then welcome! Feel free to toss any spare change my way on my Ko-Fi that's available in my pinned post I've been thinking about switching to Buy me a coffee as Paypal fees are super high, but I'll use this for now. along with my master list of projects with links to all of my work done so far. My Twitter and Discord are also available if you need to contact me.

(Usually, I pin people but honestly, A good chunk of my followers are on discord/twitter so I'll just drop the link in there instead. Ask if you want me to tag you next major update)

it is hard to capture pain in video games.

this is one of the things i ended up thinking about a lot in the hospital over the past few days. i had been going through a lot of stomach pain, and it turns out it wasn't overeating, that i had to get my gallbladder removed. i am finally back home laying in bed, trying desperately to find a good position that will kill neither my back nor my abdomen. it's not going great, but i'm too much of a wuss to use the opiate i was prescribed, so now i am typing this post in a kind of terrible state. the people sending their love and good vibes and best wishes are nothing to me, no amount of good energy will cure this abdominal pain, no amount of thoughts and prayers will take away my shortness of breath. i normally have better writing than this, but you don't deserve better writing from me right now. i don't owe you that.

so, look, i spent most of this time playing a shitton of fire emblem fates and some rhythm heaven megamix, i have been desperately trying to distract myself from the everything of this situation. and of course, as a game designer, i try to think of how to turn this into a teachable moment for my design work. but it's not fuckin easy, is it? it's hard to sell someone on a game that will physically hurt them without being a very real health risk, and it's hard to emotionally capture that sense of viscerality using game mechanics alone. tell me in the replies games that come close! but genuinely no amount of heartbreak or dread or panic in a game comes close to the sheer horribility of being in actual godawful pain, for days on end.

in my past, i actually worked on a game that tried to be about pain. it's a very different project now, and no longer in my hands, but i ended up getting its protagonist, Fang, in my head. fang's gimmick is Blood Aura, essentially an attunement to pain that gives her greater strength the lower her health is at. in a sense, it kinda captures the sense of letting yourself get harmed on purpose because that's when you feel the most alive. it makes you put yourself at risk so that you can lash out in spades. but it's all very calculated, and more to the point, it's not making you the player experience pain.

the thing i've realized about games, rpg's especially, is that you are not your player characters. the player character acts as a surrogate for you, essentially as an arm for your will, but you do not become the character as you play. the reason i emphasize rpg's is due to the nature of a party-based game. you don't play as marth in fire emblem shadow dragon, you do not play as tidus in final fantasy x. but you also, crucially, do not embody any of these characters individually as you control them. you play as the collective, the group, the dynamic itself. you play as a collective id, or perhaps, an unspoken sense of team play. games like into the breach and xcom compensate for this by simply making you an offscreen commander. it's a practical solution, and it carries me to my next point.

shortly after the surgery, i started asking various people - my mom, my friends, my beloved - how they personally felt seeing me go through this. i realized that while you can't easily capture my kind of visceral pain as a player character, you can capture the feeling of knowing someone going through it. perhaps a party member in an rpg could fall ill, and you as a commander would have to marinate in that reality. some were worried, some sympathized but knew it was gonna be alright, my beloved was terrified, and my mom talked about wanting desperately to know, and to do something. that's something that can all be done in a game form.

so here's my idea. at one point in a fairly long rpg, one of your characters gets sick, or needs some kind of operation, or something like that. this isn't foreshadowed, medical peril so often isn't, but you have to deal with it anyway. this character, who may have been vital to your team composition or may have been just another unit, is now completely unable to do any of the things you expect. you're told this won't be permanent, probably, but recovery will be a very slow process as they slowly, slowly drift back into normalcy. during this process, you have several opportunities to check in on them, for all the good that'll do. maybe it'll do something, maybe it won't. you don't know, and you don't know how successful or quick this recovery will be. you can choose to process this however you like.

this will of course run into some issues. something i've noticed playing fire emblem is a tendency i and others have to care less about characters of less tactical use to us. whether i let a unit die on classic mode hinges on whether i can be bothered to reset. so there is, always, a possibility that a gamer could see this thing and be like "wow, now this fucker is useless to me, so i don't give a shit." and, if they know this is coming, they might not bother to level up the character because it'd just be a waste of exp. not that i even like exp systems to begin with, and i highly encourage you to ask me my thoughts on exp systems because i am running purely on spite at this point.

maybe what games ultimately need is to be willing to actually physically punish the player. we have game-linked vibrators after all, why not shift the pleasure into pain? but trying to actually sell this game would mean it only appeals to masochists, and while i respect them deeply, they are not my target audience. i want the player i inflict pain upon to hate every moment of it, just as i hate every moment of being in this goddamn bed waiting for things to finally recover. apparently it'll take about six weeks. awesome, right? maybe i finally will go on that damn opioid. i am on three hours of sleep, and before the surgery i had barely eaten anything for two days. this past week has been nothing but pain, distractions from the pain, and eventual relief from the pain. fuck i hate this.

Since there's talk of an e-sports Olympics happening next year, I think someone (or I) should write a comedy story about the wacky misadventures of the USA's first Olympic e-sports team.

They're actually not the biggest delegation this time. Japan is.

Just like in Paris, there's a 50/50 split of men and women. People start complaining that "most of those girls are DEI picks. They aren't good at video games." They shut up when an all-female team wins gold at PUBG.

There were going to be gendered divisions until someone said, "How different are male and female hands, really?"

So many individual sports games that people start asking why they don't just add Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games since it has them all.

A lot of MOBAs.

Mario Odyssey speedrunning was going to have a 100% category, but that would take too long, so it's just Any%.

The IOC doesn't fully understand competitive Smash, so they don't ban any stages.

The gold medalist in Smash Ultimate plays Ice Climbers.

The USA's team for Splatoon 3 actually came in second at the trials because the first-place team was racist. (This one is actually based in real life. The Splatoon 3 world champions just got their title revoked for being racist.)

The Street Fighter 6 world champion loses to a furry. It becomes a PR nightmare. (Also partially based in real life: https://www.shacknews.com/article/106563/sonicfox-beats-rival-go1-to-win-dragon-ball-fighterz-at-evo-2018)

Olympic Rhythm Heaven. (They use Megamix because it has a numerical scoring system. Fever fans are livid.)

They tried to add Animal Crossing, but they had no idea how to make it a competitive event. Same with Minecraft.

Tetris is not included because of its origins in Russia. Suika Game is added as an alternative. Some Tetris players enter thinking it can't possibly be that different and end up raging at Suika Game's physics.

There is a classic arcade game decathlon that ends up being surprisingly popular.

NBC tries to find some popular YouTubers and Twitch streamers to commentate the games. The only really popular one they can find without any dirt on them is Markiplier.

Someone gets injured playing Just Dance. I don't know how. They just do.

The Gran Turismo team gets harassed by the Mario Kart team for "not playing a real racing game."

Due to a licensing mix-up with Microsoft, the IOC gets the rights to host a Blinx the Time Sweeper event instead of Halo. Not knowing what to do, they cobble together a competition with Blinx 2's multiplayer mode. There are only three people in the event, and it turns out to be a disaster.

Nintendo and the IOC create another licensing agreement so that there can be Nintendo games at the Olympics. Nintendo adds a loophole that lets them keep making Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games.
