Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author's website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author's comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss
  3. GPrime85

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.

Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)

Alt text: Yeah yeah, there's always exceptions, I mean look no further than the game in the 2nd panel, not the most thrilling gameplay, is it?

I've been enjoying My Little Puppy. It's a cute little game about finding your human. Not for kids though.

Edit: I've finished the game, here is my Steam review.

Tap for reviewWow what a game… ok first and foremost, for any parents reading this, I would actually rate this game as PG not the current G age rating, due to certain themes.

+++ Animations and graphics for the dogs are perfect. Really makes you feel like a dog

+++ Environment design, sound design, pacing, themes, all of it is perfect

+++ Huge amount of detail and effort put in to the story, even side characters

+ Controls are mostly good. I had this bug where I would have to let go of the direction stick and press forwards again every 5 minutes or so, which was mildly annoying.

- Some of the puzzles, quick time events, and platforming jumps would be very difficult for a child. I can't see anyone under 10 maybe 13 finishing this game without adult assistance. Heck even as an adult some sections really annoyed me.

I can't really review anything else without giving it away. It's definitely worth playing. If you're on the fence, consider this review your signal to go for it.

Is it like spiritfarer? That game fucked me up.

Not so far, though I haven't finished the game yet

[–] Entropy_Pyre@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I’ve been playing that and loving it! Is…is it not kid friendly? A lot of the gameplay… seems just cute and simple… Ohno. Anxious now that it might have a dark af ending o-o Guess I’ll see.

I've finished the game now. No spoilers, but for any parents reading this:

Tap for not spoilerI would personally rate the game PG instead of the current G age rating due to certain themes

Sorry by that I meant that the gameplay is actually quite difficult. The quick time events are strict and there's no accessibility option, the jumps are tight especially in some sections, etc. So far the themes are kid friendly, though I haven't beaten it yet*. But I can't see anyone under 10 maybe 13 beating this game without serious frustration. Heck as an adult I got annoyed at repeatedly failing a few seconds 😂

"This looks amazing!"

"Oh, its already on my wishlist, I thought itnwas amazing before too!"

[–] Zarobi@aussie.zone 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You have to buy it now, it's the double wishlist rule

[–] AmyAye@nord.pub 3 points 1 day ago

You joke but I have used this before.
