Nice zine! I put the book you mentioned on my to read list.
Thank you so much for your kind words! Playing Nature is an interesting study that puts media analysis in conversation with science, and I hope you're able to gain as much from the book as I did.
Very nice. It's true that there's a subconscious boon in walking around video game naturescapes. Especially if you're stuck in the city!
Thank you so much! I'm hardcore stuck in a gritty treeless neighborhood of Philadelphia, and video game forests are a lifeline. The appreciation of digital trees isn't just escapism, though! With any luck, my next comic project will be about how video games (and specifically Koroks) have inspired me to take up urban gardening. It's always useful to have help envisioning the future you want to see in the real world.
