Magenta Kong

by in Mandatory Fun Day on

One of my all-time favorite reader comics was Matt. C's #205432 ("Magenta Kong"). It was one of the many great reader comics on 2.6: A Roadblock.

Since then, Matt. C has done the unthinkable: he turned Magenta Kong into an actual Flash-based game. It's built from entirely scratch in ActionScript without a single ROM hack in sight.


The 1.0 Alternates

Since we're in Classics Week, I wanted to share a couple Series 1 comics that ended up getting cut. They star Zach, the lovable FOSS Fighter that also got the cut.
