It’s more like a bunch of glow-in-the-dark bouncy balls being dropped on the ground.
The Savestate Store has been restocked if you’re interested. Also, this Wednesday (Jan 15) after posting the new comic I’ll be adding some book sketch slots. After that I’m going to try and start alternating between book sketches and digital art commissions.

Charms are back in stock in the Store and there’s finally a Riley charm to complete the cast!
I know a lot of people have asked about offering more sketches in Savestate vol 1 and I definitely want to do that, but I’m waiting on some work related stuff to clear up first. I’d hate to take orders and then make you wait since I wouldn’t be able to work on them right away.
Update – I should probably also mention I’ll be at MFF this year in the Artist Alley Marketplace. Which means I’ll have an assigned seat in the Artist Alley instead of having to enter the seat raffle everyday.

Hopefully you all had fun playing the level and no one broke their Switch throwing it against the wall in anger.
Savestate is holding a Mario Maker 2 contest! Grand prize is a hardcover copy of Savestate with a colored drawing inside!

How to win?
- Only available to those living in the US / Canada since the book will have to be mailed.
- You have until Friday, August 2 to enter.
- Play and beat the Mario Maker 2 level with course ID 478-FBB-2HF
- At the end of the level will be a code written in blocks. Take note of this.
- Send an email to savestatecomic (at) gmail.com with your Mario Maker name and the code from the end of the level.
- Everyone who finishes the level will be entered into a drawing to win the grand prize.
FAQs:
- Do I get anything for being the first to beat the level?
- No. This isn’t a speed run. People have school, work, and other video games to play.
- Do I need to send my mailing address?
- It would make things easier but it’s not required. I’ll contact you to get that information if you win.
- What if the winner isn’t able to claim the prize?
- If I can’t get in contact with the winner to get a mailing address then a new winner will be chosen from the list of those who’ve completed the level.
- Why do I need to email my Mario Maker name and the code from the end of the level?
- To keep things fair. Mario Maker keeps track of who’s beaten each level, however that information is publicly available. The code at the end of the level acts as proof that you’ve actually reached the end of the level and aren’t just pretending to be someone on the leader board.
- What if no one beats the level?
- Then I’ll make an easier level and we’ll try this again.
Update
So I’m an idiot and didn’t realize Mario Maker 2 still had level previews, which meant the secret code was visible to everyone. I’ve fixed this and uploaded the level again. For those that had cleared the original level, I have a log of all previous clears so don’t worry about having to re-beat the level.
Special acclamations to shifter311 who not only was the first to clear the level but held the record at 8’37”.
April 12-14 I’ll be at Motor City FurCon, this time in the Dealer’s Den. Then on May 4 I’ll be at Nostalgia Ink during
Free Comic Book Day. If you’re able to attend either event stop by and say hey.
The sketch is just something I’ve been working on and plain text updates are boring, so here ya’ go. Keeping with the idea of Ashe as Wile E Coyote I thought B.O.B. should be a roadrunner and based his design off Kass.
