Hey patrons, I hope you are doing well! We're coming up on the end of another year and this feels like the best time to do this - I've decided to go ahead and suspend the wallpapers.
I really do appreciate all of your support despite not updating the comic for so long. I really can't believe so many of you are still here! I am so grateful ...

I know the wallpaper isn't very Christmasy this time, but I sure had fun with it!
I've actually been working on this image for a few months now. I started it back in August or September and it was so involved that I had to keep putting it aside, but I'm really glad I was finally able to finish it.

Happy November! We're getting so close to the end of the year, aren't we?
As it gets colder and grayer outside I find myself drawn towards more colorful and abundant themes in an attempt to compensate. For this month's wallpaper I decided to go for Chicory, a beautiful and charming little game that lets you color your world as you see fit....

Happy spooky month, everybody!! It's finally back!
This year I decided to hit one of my favorite horror games, Little Nightmares! There were so many scenes to pick from, but in the end settled on this creepy, anxiety-inducing segment where I screamed, "NO NO NO!!" the whole way down the hall. I think the Janitor was the scariest of all the...

Happy September everyone! I hope you're all enjoying the last of summer while you can.
For this month I wasn't really sure what to do at first, but I eventually realized that I've never done a wallpaper for a game that I really adored - A Short Hike. It's one of the most charming little games I've played and I love all the beautiful scener...

You know, doing a Stray themed wallpaper is pretty much a no-brainer, and I almost didn't think of it. Shame on me!
I absolutely adored this game, it was right up my alley and I loved every moment of it. There were so many scenes to choose from when making a wallpaper, but I finally decided on the one that stood out to me the most personal...
2022-08-16 17:23:00 +0000 UTC View PostSo I figured it was time for another update, as I realized it's been quite a long time since I last spoke on the comic's status and I wanted to touch base with all you wonderful patrons who are still here :)
I'm going to get into the personal nitty-gritty a bit, so feel free to skip down to the TL;DR section if you're not interested.
So I'm actually glad I was running a little late with the wallpaper this month, because when I saw the new trailer for Kirby's Dream Buffet I knew what I wanted to draw!
I really love doing the gamer cats in their Kirby forms, and I love cupcakes and pastels and party themes, so this was a real fun treat. I can't wait to play the game, I'm...

There's been a lot of buzz around Sonic lately, what with the second movie and the new open world game being teased. It made me realize I've never actually done Sonic-Gamercat before and it seemed like a fun wallpaper for this month.
Interesting trivia - I often imagine Gamercat's voice being very similar to the one used for the old Sonic ...

I'm sorry this wallpaper is a bit late this month! Things have gotten hectic lately and I also got a little ambitious with creating all the assets for it.
For those who haven't played it, I highly recommend Tunic! I thought it might just be another Zelda clone, but the reliance on the vintage style game manual was amazingly well thou...

I hope you all will indulge me on this month's wallpaper :)
I know I've done the cherry blossom theme twice before, but it really is one of my favorites! I just love cherry blossoms, especially juxtaposed with a black cat. The pop of contrast is so great! And this was very relaxing and fun to do, I had a great time with it.

Pardon the lack of a St. Paddy's Day wallpaper this month, but when I saw the screenshots of the fishing mini game from the new Kirby game I just knew I HAD to draw it. It's so dang cute!!
I also absolutely love drawing Gamercat-Kirby and am always looking for an excuse to do more of him. I'm really excited about getting a new Kirby game t...

I know what you're probably thinking. Where's the lovey-dovey Valentine's wallpaper? Huh??
I usually use that theme for February, but this year I just couldn't think of something I wanted to do, and the new Pokemon game's visuals were really calling to me. This was inspired by several promotional shots from Arceus and was an enjoyable way ...

Hey patrons, sorry this wallpaper is a bit late! I got a little ambitious with it, wanting to do the entire Gamercat cast as the new FNAF characters.
All the details slowed me down a bit, but this was so much fun to do! It was interesting to find all the similarities in the characters as well - Chica has an eye spot and 3 hair spikes just ...

Well we've made it through the year and are into the final month. I've been so cold lately so I wanted to do something warm and cozy for this month's wallpaper.
This was inspired by a picture I came across while looking at cozy Christmas images and I really fell in love with it. For some reason it really struck me and I just had to incorpo...

A warm cup of comfort and a friendly ear to bend, what more could you want on a chilly November day?
I hope you all are enjoying the new Animal Crossing update as much as I am! It's been so wonderful to get back into the game after almost a year's break. I've really missed it and I'm having a blast getting back to work on my island. I stil...

Ah, my favorite wallpaper month! I just love Halloween and drawing spooky images!
This time I really wanted to draw some spooks, so I decided to go with Gamercat telling chilling ghost stories. I'm sure it's a tall tale about a game-ending bug and poor Glitch is cowering in the corner with his little face covered.

So it seems that Cookie Clicker was just released on Steam this month, and it got me feeling pretty nostalgic.
I did a lot of comics joking on the game since it was so much fun to riff on, and there's actually more comics about it in the archive than I realized. So I decided to revisit one of my favorite comics, Cookie Tycoon, for Septembe...

Capturing a quiet moment of reflection as the day comes to a close.
I'm sorry the wallpapers have been coming so late in the month recently! I had planned to get this one up much earlier, but I did some long-overdue traveling to visit family and got caught up in it all. It was really wonderful to see my parents again after almost 2 years.<...

We're well into summer, and nothing says summer quite like camping!
I finally got myself Cozy Grove and have been playing a lot of it lately, so I decided to use it as the theme for this month's wallpaper. The game is very much like Animal Crossing and, although the daily limitations on progress can be a bit restrictive, it is nice to have...

First off, I'm sorry the wallpaper is rather late this month! Things have been pretty hectic with my shop and a Kickstarter I was launching, so I'm really sorry this took so long to finish.
I also wanted to come up with something special with the whole kitty cast because this year marks the 10 year anniversary of Gamercat's creation! I did...

Wow, we're almost half way through 2021 already! It has felt both interminably long and unbelievably short. I hope you all are getting by okay.
I've noticed that recently I've been slipping a bit on my self care, so I thought for this month's wallpaper I'd remind myself (and anyone else who needs it) that it's perfectly okay to spend at le...

Continuing with my theme of the cosplaying cats! This time I went for Earthbound since I realized I've never really done anything in reference to the game before and the cats all fit so nicely into the respective characters.
To be honest I've never actually played through all of Earthbound, and the only memory I have of it is renting it fr...

I had so much fun with this wallpaper! I know I usually go for a green/shamrock theme for March, but I wanted to do something different this year.
I wasn't a huge Turtles fan growing up, as it was more my brother's thing, but I distinctly remember playing the video games with him. When I saw the trailer for the new...

Well 2020 is finally in the past and we have a whole new year sprawling ahead!

I had so much fun with last month's wallpaper that I was inspired to do more of the cats in various styles!
I've always loved Kirby-Gamercat, but I realized that I've never done the others with that look. Glitch came out the cutest, but I have to admit Sweet's little puckered face makes me laugh every time I look at it.
