Nice, I would however like to see a version of a larger puffy image only with no background.

Arr, Mateys!

 

Here is the latest Shark! Shark! Puffy t-shirt design 1st draft.

 

Does thou like or dislike? Any thoughts?

 

As The Atari Creep would say: "All feedback is positive"

 

 

 

I am going to be contrarian because I like this design better. I like you see him in his fishy element and the shark bite details.

Hans Ippisch spoke at the Pocket Gamer Digital Connect on April 19 on a panel about indies and the need for multi platform development.

Plus here is a short bio and interview:

Is there any video available on this one?

This layout but the the previous puffy image instead (i like puffys expresion better in the other image).

Hi Tommy, with E3 just around the corner- will IE have a presence there in some form? What about Gamescom this year?

Yes.  Maybe there can be 2 shirts of just him.  One with the regular size Puffy.  Then one where he's puffed up.

If someone is going to make audiovisual piece with Puffy, please use the song Puffy Cloud by Ween.

Maybe a two sided shirt with the different puffy version on each side?

That works too.

Actually really excited for this! I am a soccer (properly football) fan and have followed FC Dallas for years (had season tickets for a while, but moved too far away to make attending regularly impractical). Glad to get an update and can't wait to see this one in action in a future games update video

Put me down for Super Secret screenshots of Curling!!!!

I would settle for Adventure! Tempest! (Haven't mentioned this in a few posts) Tron!

It says Ep. 10, but what happened to Ep. 9?  Lol.  Must be a typo.  Because the last episode was 8.

It’s like toilet paper but for corporations.  
 

When the pandemic hit, there was a huge and an immediate shortage of TP; why, because everyone suddenly started pooping more (maybe its an unreported side effect?), maybe as people were staying home from work, they weren’t using the facilities at their employers, driving up home usage?  No, its because people went into panic buying (myself included - hey, who wants to be caught with their pants down and not have TP) which drove to ever increasing shortages. 

I’m guessing there may be some of this mentality going on globally with corporations; there is a chip shortage so they are trying to secure as much as they can (further exasperating the shortage) because they don't want to be caught with their assets hanging out with a bunch of parts sitting around while they wait on need straggler components. 
 

Amico needs you - stop buying other crap in order to help end the chip shortage.
