This issue is top quality! There are several articles that I'll be going over for some time. The 'Drawing Inverted Shapes' which is about highlighting your character or another area on the screen is fantastic. It really makes the cart look professional / more engaging. I know the editor of the zine was going through burnout doing these every month. Hopefully stretching it out to quarterly will work for them because I truly appreciate the work and dedication that goes into drafting the issues.

A link to the the zine.
