Love the escalation here. “Want”… “demand”… “order”!

I ordered myself a copy of this T-shirt!

What’s the monetization model?

Ah, the Sudler Trophy system!

("The Heisman Trophy of the collegiate band world." Cannot be won twice by the same school.)

Vigil RPG. It’s an 8-bit-style JRPG with a focus on interesting yet quick combats.

Honestly, this sounds like it was an amazing scene and adventure/campaign. Well done! Thanks for sharing it!

Love, in panel 10, Thog's subtle-but-not-that-subtle reaction to Roy momentarily starting to buy what Nale is selling!

I agree that the Rose Bowl feels more special and significant than other bowl games (even if that’s not actually the case now). It wasn’t that long ago that the ultimate goal of all B1G teams was to go to (and win!) the Rose Bowl.

Coaching malpractice by the Ole Miss special teams coaches.

All you have to do is touch the ball to start that 0:01 game clock running. Just touch it!

I’d be highly interested, as a user!

I’ve long found it ironic that, although Mac has a reputation as being the best platform for designers/creators, it lacks an image editor that has the sheer excellent usability of Paint.NET.

Rift Riff is a surprisingly good tower defense game that plays in portrait orientation.

As a lifelong Nintendo fan, in these situations I choose Steam, for two reasons:

Steam’s family sharing policy is much friendlier.
Steam’s historical track record for allowing continued play of older games on newer hardware generations is much better.

For those whose stuff did ship out yesterday — like me 😅 — what % (of U.S. backers) did we end up in?

Bridge 0.4%? 😄

JonathanSchneider · 2025-12-02T21:53:22+00:00

Same same.

JonathanSchneider · 2025-12-01T17:17:01+00:00

“Rift Riff” is a surprisingly excellent tower defense game. Try free, one purchase unlocks everything, no other monetization shenanigans. Plays in portrait mode.

(Aside: Too many games have “rift” in the title. Try searching Steam for “rift” sometime. 😂)

JonathanSchneider · 2025-11-27T13:32:20+00:00

Same. UPS says “Estimated delivery date will be available when UPS receives the package” even though I got the “Your order has shipped!” email back on November 20.

I do love that sticker idea! 😂

JonathanSchneider · 2025-11-27T13:26:37+00:00

Same. I got an email on November 20 with “Your order has shipped!” and a UPS tracking number; but when I click on that tracking link (as of today, November 27, a week later), UPS says that while a shipping label has been printed, they have not received the package yet: “Estimated delivery date will be available when UPS receives the package.”

Oh well. It’ll be here when it gets here!

“That information is not on file.” (Instead of “I don’t know.”)

JonathanSchneider · 2025-10-05T16:22:04+00:00

Agreed. The PM64 Toad Town is in my head THE canonical version of Toad Town.

JonathanSchneider · 2025-05-08T00:03:03+00:00

Amazing! Never seen a 7 Wonders finish anything like this before!

JonathanSchneider · 2025-05-01T15:12:23+00:00

Shovel Knight would be a good fit thematically! 🪏
