Moths in a human suit (they/them): It's Friday, friends. Can I be tiny happy at you for a minute? This #SciArt zine I (finally) made will be in my store soon. Test print is shiny & full of nerdiness, & I love it. Journal of Video Game Botany no.1 is on fungi that appear in AC Valhalla, & 2 will be the flora of Horizon Zero Dawn 🌿🎮💖

Generally I'm very bad at being happy when I make A Thing, but video game botany is my favourite weird hobby. So I'm happy I finally got my 💩 together and made a zine about it 😁

OH MY GOSH

I'm such an absolute dork Glendon, send halp 😂😂😂

No halp, only MUCH APPRECIATION 💕💕

I love Assassin’s Creed and spent more time on Valhalla than any other. Excited that you made this.

I'm excited too, tbh! Valhalla and Odyssey are games I might never stop playing/loving.

This is a glorious thing!! Thank you for sharing it. Video game botany is a fabulous idea!

Than you 😁 it's my favourite hobby because I'm a giant nerd 😂

You're welcome. You certainly don't need to justify nature based hobbies to me. I'd do all nature all the time, in various forms, if I could!

this is exactly my jam, thank you so much for posting this

Thank you too! 😀

I sent this to my gf who likes to play open world games naturalist style

That's my favourite way to play! (& Prob why I'm so slow at games 😂)

you absolute nerd 💚

Thanks mate 😊

this is AWESOME!! Congratulations!

Aww thanks mate 💖

what a tremendously great idea & of course the execution is just *chef's kiss*

You're too kind! Honestly, I wish I was a bit quicker at making this stuff. But life is so life-y, y'know? 😂

preaching to the choir here, i wish i was quicker too. But you *finished a thing* (you finish lots of things) and that is so much more than however long it took you to do them. I have trouble finishing but even more trouble starting, these days

Hehehe I did, didn't I? 😊 But the troubles - relatable. I'm just gonna say I have trouble trouble. Thats it, just trouble. With all the things. 🤣🤣🤣

This is so completely my sort of thing that it kinda feels like a trap 😆

It's not a trap. I mean, except that botany is in itself a trap that sucks you in and makes you stop to look at aaalllllll the plants 😂

I wanted to do this for GTAV botany after I took my first leisurely police-avoiding drive into the hills!

I mean you might as well look at plants while you're there, eh 😁

Precisely. Someone went to all that effort to plant them. I should stop to take pictures before I pull out the minigun

OH!!! Oh this is awesome!

😁💖

Cool as hell!

Thanks! 😁

Why didn't you start with Morrowind?

Cos I haven't played it.

You should. It’s a very good game and there’s a lot of mushrooms.

Do you have other games covered? Because I would love to read this for fun at some point but don't exactly play AC much ^ ^;;

At the moment I'm finishing up one on Horizon Zero Dawn. But honestly, I haven't found a game I can't botanise yet, so who knows what I'll do next! I'm not super-fast at drawing the illustrations tho 😬

I love this! Any future plans for a Dragon Age issue?

Yes, if I get round to playing it... On my list along with sooo many games, but life is life-y & also I'm very slow (probably bc stopping to look at all the plants 😂😭)

I would never want to add any pressure, I know well how long the to-play list gets! But I will say, there's a delightful array of flora to be indulged in in the DA universe

Ahhh that sounds good, I should bump it up the list! Trying to work my way through horizon right now

Now I'm imaging future issues covering the fungi of The Elder Scrolls and Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom. But seriously, this is such a cool thing.

Mate, so many games with good plants, fungi, etc. I'll be doing this forever (esp given how slow I am 🤣)

My elderKid, on seeing this post: "tell them to play Rainworld." *chuckle" They add, "but I've never played it..." :) this is wonderful! Off to look for/at your store :)

Thanks 😁 It's not up yet, this is the test print. But don't worry, I'll yell about it here when it goes in my store!

I am ready for it!
