Alix’s traditional media sketch of Rauru from The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment

Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment is out now!! I love Rauru a lot, so here’s a doodle of him 💕 #zelda #thelegendofzelda #alixesque

i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up

This is why I regularly let people know how awesome I think they are.

We often think that awesome people must naturally know they’re awesome, but they don’t. And letting them know could be the little push that they really needed that day.

Starting @ 9am PST (an hour and a half from this post), I’m streaming a wonderful indie game all about good vibes & a cute bunny: hoptix! 🐇 This is my only stream this week as I have a big surgery tomorrow!! Hope to see you there 🍂

A tall purple cup of tea sits on a light orange napkin covered with a cartoony image of a black cat and ghosts, which also reads "Here for the treats" in orange, black, and white lettering. There's a sideways package of Trader Joe's Glazed Pumpkin Pie Spice Donut Holes beside it.

👻 Happy Halloween! It's here: my annual October Spooktacular Blog! 🎃 Amid writings & pictures of what I did this month, I also include a list of my mega movie marathon - perhaps it'll lead you toward something to enjoy this magical evening! Enjoy ✨

wow something i doodled from game's early days....

Thread of amazing fanart for the card game Alix and I made a while back!

A blue mansion with monster-like features surrounded by dark, dead trees on a misty purple hill with a graveyard. The sky is a dark purple, with a full moon in the sky and bats flying across it. There’s a hidden Pumpkitty peeking from somewhere.

I'm sorry to be cloying and romantic but there is something intangibly beautiful about hand-crafted things that no automated, expedited, "at-scale" tool can ever achieve.

You feel something wake up in you when you see work like this. It dislodges some sort of primal wonder.

Designing X-YZE

Finally wrote some #x-yze design notes. I also dug through a massive semi-private social media thread to grab videos/images of old versions of the game, which Alix kindly compiled into a montage video in the write-up.

A festival scene on a Japanese-style street with hanging lights and many Yokai. A Kasa-Obake and Chochin Obake hang out near the top left and right, with assorted creatures from top to bottom: A Tengu looking at a Baku, Sunamura no Onryo looking at Pumpkitty, Amabie walking along, Kappa holding a lantern, Hitotsune-Kozo calling others into his shop, a Nekomata mother walking with her child, and Ina the O-Inari talking to a ghost bookseller.

🏮 Here's a frighteningly festive scene! 👹
One year, back when I hosted my own Drawlloween challenges during October, I did full-scene illustration every week. This one features a town full of Yokai! How many can you name? 👻 #yokai #monsters #illustration #alixesque

New poster for "Dorohedoro" Season 2.
Coming Spring 2026.

ZILLA!

This game taught me the true depth of bump action—the enemy placement is absolutely brilliant, and it’s incredibly fun!
I’m going to continue playing from where I left off today!

X-YZE is a free 2-4hr bump combat action game with a mysterious short story. Gameplay is a bit like old Ys with a dash! Aesthetics inspired by Mega Man Battle Network, Phantasy Star Online, Digimon, and Summer Wars.

Give folks their flowers

No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier

"They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

GO GO GO GO GO!

Fans of Ys and bump combat with intriguing worlds and stories are gonna love this!

The cover art for the X-YZE soundtrack. It shows the big X-YZE logo at the top, with "Original Game Soundtrack" just below, and "by Chris Logsdon" just below that. Covering the bottom half of the art are 2 fluffy anthropomorphic characters with big ears. One of them has their back turned to the viewer. They are mostly in shadow, but have a ring of light outlining them. They also have visible earrings, and are wearing a cloak of some sort. The other character is facing the viewer, has a serious expression. They are holding a beam sword out in front of them, and the light from that sword illuminates their face. They are wearing some sort of crop-top and skirt, with their midriff showing. They also have a large scarf trailing behind them.

The X-YZE soundtrack (composed by me) is available on Bandcamp!
