The Newsblade ~ Quest Week

[2 new Swords episodes]

The Swords Annual Survey is still open if you would like to drop in some feedback.
When I reach 500 responses in the next day or two, I will make a "Comments to comment on" style Patreon post, addressing some of the things raised.

I'll be doing Swordtember! Here is my personal prompt list if you'd like to fight alongside me! I would appreciate everyone getting in the mood to cheer me on! Each week is inspired by a thing I like.

In preparation for Swordtember, I need to tie up as many loose ends as possible in the coming week. What I'm saying is, I need to become the productivity monster that I'm always telling myself I need to become tomorrow. Hehe. I know that runs counter to the many requests in the survey for me to take better care of myself and be nicer to myself, but if you'll all be patient with me for the next 5 weeks, I can sleep once I've earned it.

If you need me to do something urgently in that time, let's do a fun experiment - email me with the subject [QUEST] at swordscomic@gmail.com and I will try to knock it out as a priority. I'm not saying it will work better than a regular message, I'm just saying it might.

New Zealand is no longer shipping parcels to the United States. Because of all the horrors. If you would like to buy a copy of Cut the Deck, they ship from Texas or Wellington and so this is unaffected. Normal mail is unaffected too and so the only part of my business that is closed indefinitely for America is things like enamel pin sales. We are down to the last 400 backers that need to be united with their copies of Cut the Deck, so please get in touch!!!! Thane and I are also working on the future of the game currently.

Newsdaggers:

• I think I have room for about 15 more Choplet requests on Ko-Fi before I cut it off, so I can actually implement it all in the game. I am currently working on Story Mode and will put up a build when the adventure gets as far as the Zungir Boss Fight. It's quite tough at the beginning when you've only got Choplet, so I'll need to work on balancing random encounters a bit more.

• I've been drawing a big green arrow over the entire of Korokonui in wplace, just because.

• Watching the new season of Taskmaster NZ, Dr Stone, Panty & Stocking Season 2, "rewatching" Dragonball Kai and rewatching Jujutsu Kaisen season 1

Thanks! See you this time next week for a torrent of daily comics!
