Woohoo! I love financial failure! The plot is mid but the men are fetching!
Anywhoo, a sketch I did of Lance because I've been doodling him a lot lately and love him very much. I think the plot did him dirty with him just being "omg negativity bad" and I personally prefer to portray him as someone who sees value in teaching people of the world's dangers and evils for their safety? idk. I care him.
But over some time I had to make a difficult decision. So it's with a heavy heart that the Balan Wonderworld comic is sadly cancelled...
The reason why I made this choice is cause I'm heading off to college now so me being able to do it is not really possible 24/7, but I just kinda lost interest in making it and the more pages I did was sucking me dry, there's is only so many things one person can do on their own... I wanted to make a good story I really did, but at what cost? So I added the rest of pages 8-16 cause I don't think I would come back to them again...
If my interest in the Balan series does comes back one day where I do wanna make another page, then we'll see, but until then, the comic is cancelled. I'm sorry...
`` No need to be sad when there's fun to be had!
So sit in the front row and please, enjoy the show! ``

Balan hyperfixation coming back in full swing uh oh!!
So we all know Foamstars, aka Splatwatch, is so obviously going to be ass. I haven't even finished the trailer and I am appalled. However, I would like to share with you one minor nitpick in particular that I guarantee will make you suffer. Ready?
At 1:17 in the trailer, a billboard is visible in the background. It looks like this (circle added for clarity).
That is the name of the city the game takes place in. Bath Vegas. Say it out loud, it does not work at all. Upon seeing this, I was upset, but literal seconds later I thought:
Wash Vegas.
IT WAS RIGHT THERE. TEN SECONDS OF THOUGHT. I am so angry. The minds behind Balan WonderlandWORLD produce yet another banger. Bath Vegas. That is the name of the city in this game. This game that is already nothing but a hodgepodge of plagirized ideas held together with generic plasticky anime graphics. This game produced by the bright minds behind Symbiogenesis and Balan Wonderworld.
Square Enix needs to be stopped. We have reached levels of out-of-touch, creatively bankrupt executive slop that shouldn't be possible. Bath Vegas got put into this slick, million-dollar trailer and nobody put in the seconds of thought to realize it was fucking stupid. My heart goes out to the poor animators who had to try to defibrilate this abomination. I wish them a speedy recovery.
