Ray recently made a guest appearance on his brother’s podcast, The Lame Show which we’ve linked here for you to enjoy. In the episode they discuss the iPhone 4 ‘Antenna-gate’, videogames as art, Inception, and other random musings. Check it out!

iPhone developer Engineous Games approached us a couple months back to have us create an art pack for their new game Sketch Nation Shooter, an ambitious iPhone game allowing users to create their own shooting games. Ray and I both instantly though of Lace as being the perfect fit for such a project, thus Pixel Vision’s first playable form arrives! Now, it’s certainly not the full-fledged title we dream of some day having for our heroine, but it IS a way to allow fans to get creative with Lace, Anti-Alias, her evil forces, and a surprise end boss (Who is behind these evil forces? Be ready for the shock of your life!). The game is just 99 cents, and the Pixel Vision Art Pack is an additional 99 cents as DLC (ironic if you listen to our podcasts). We deeply appreciate anyone who chooses to buy the art pack and look forward to the games you guys create with it!

Because we love you all so much, we’re even going to make it easier for you to support Ray’s hard work! We’ve got a handful of promo codes for Sketch Nation Shooter to give out to our fans and will do so over the next week through our Twitter accounts. If you haven’t done so yet, follow me and Ray for your chance to win the game (we’ll tweet the deets). You’ll still have to buy the art pack to play as Lace, but the game itself is free.

It’s been almost a month since 2P FINISH! but honestly, it feels like a distant memory. I guess I’ve just been real busy over the last few weeks and haven’t had much time to reminisce. Ray has posted a new BRAWLOL as seen above or on the BRAWLOL page. We’ll also be recording some thoughts on E3 tonight as well as a Lost analysis in the next week or so. We’re going to talk about those things anyway, so might as well record it and share it with you guys! Anyway, hope some of you are still around to enjoy!

This should have gone up last week, but things got busy. I ought to start archiving these. There’s some continuity involved, so to understand fully, make sure you’ve read the last couple. Enjoy the Tim’s Take.

Just a heads up that the podcast didn’t get recorded this weekend due to Easter. We’ll be recording something tonight, less edited than usual. You should probably just plan on listening to it tomorrow as we won’t be done recording until about 9PM PST. To tide you over, I’ll be posting a Tim’s Take in the next few hours!

Despite the hatred controversy with this week’s comic, I made time to whip up a Tim’s Take with Yoshi. Enjoy the bonus content. It doesn’t cost a penny more than the regular subscription fee you pay us to read the normal comics. Oh wait…

As promised, there will be two strips this week. As some had guessed, our first is a guest strip on Brawl in the Family! This is actually the first guest strip we’ve ever done too! Matt from BitF did an excellent guest strip for us a couple months ago, so we wanted to return the favor. Enjoy!

As promised, we made more valentines this year and again you can send them off to friends and loved ones! This doesn’t get you off the hook entirely though. Send your mom some flowers and take that nice girl you’re seeing out to dinner and a movie! Happy V-Day everyone!

Update: As requested, here are all the valentines zipped up if you would like to print them individually on cardstock or photo paper to hand out!

It’s time for a change, folks. We all hate messing with routine, but this should have been done long ago. We are officially killing our weekly Wednesday comics (gasp!) and birthing a new schedule of Thursday comics. There are a few reasons for doing this:

1. More time between updates – The site always felt a bit lopsided towards the beginning of the week with major updates on Mondays and Wednesdays. This also gave little time for Ray to recover from podcast editing before jumping right into meeting the demands of a comic. Hopefully this change will result in more polished, well-thought out comics.

2. Lost starts soon – Ray’s obsession with Lost will make Tuesday nights very bad for trying to get comics done. Once he finishes watching a Lost episode, he recreates each scene with papercraft versions of the characters and speculates on what Lost is really about on all the internet forums and blogs. This consumes the majority of his evening.

3. April Fools Day lands on a Thursday this year – MWUAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our final updates to close out 2009 are now up. You’ll notice the page headers for the Forum, Contact page, Blog, Extras, and podcast have all been updated to match the style of the tabs and nav bar better. The bigger change though is a new addition to Ray’s Music in the Extras section. There’s now a Music Collectibles page that includes songs Ray has presented on the podcast that aren’t a part of his official albums. You’ll find his rendition of White Christmas, a remix of Joy Electric’s Dance to Moroder, a nice Pixel Vision Medley, and a song written for our first fan that left the site. There’s even some album art there for you too. Enjoy, and again, Happy New Year!
