I'm Ryan, and I draw a sci-fi noir webcomic titled Center World! It's available, all free to read, on my website: phoenixan.com

And also, lately, I've gotten into making maps for Quake? You'll see the occasional blog post about that and other creative hobbies I get into too. #introductions
I really liked the character designs for this.

Important discovery yesterday.
Not sure about this version, but the Ultimate Edition's CD key worked for me to activate on Steam back when I bought it (same deal, branded as Games for Windows).
These seem really good for a concrete+lava level.

while concepting the book, this was one of the first dialogues i wrote in my notes app. from the proposal to the script to the editing to the making of the final art, this first exchange with my father's ghost was a keystone for the book's story

This is how prestige levels should work in videosgames.
I finally got around to doing a write-up of my thought processes for each of these: thecenterworld.com/2025/10/quak...
This type of thing is really fun to watch.

Yeah, I've made plenty of people mad by sprinkling around lightning gun ammo in a Quake map while sticking the lightning gun in a very hard-to-find secret.

every AI ad is like

“hey gemini, what would i have for lunch?”

and then the phone is like

“sandwich”

and the guy is like

“wow”
I actually had no idea there were YTP with Keeping Up Appearances, and now I need to look this up.

I'd always told @squimoo.bsky.social I'd do some sort of guest page for TSB, and I'm happy to have made good on that promise! Wanna see what Rising Sand would look like with electricity? This is perhaps the closest you'll ever get.

Read TSB! It's for breakfast now!
Read TSB; it's a cereal! Wow! ✨
Just when you think it's another shitty miserable Wednesday 🌟THE SPACE BETWEEN🌟returns - with a guest page from, who else but, @glitchritual.com of @risingsand.glass fame.

In this week's page, Ferelith and Vexen make their way back to the Wild Wagon.
