This sounds cool :) What size are you printing the book at?

yaytime March 18 2009, 21:23:38 UTC

I should have included that!
It will MOST LIKLEY be 6x9inches. Or there abouts.

Not sure if I'll submit art to be considered for this; but I have some questions just in case.

What will be the maximum physical dimensions of the printed art (in inches, preferably)? I couldn't find the book/page size listed. Also, are there bleed settings and/or a margin accounting for the spine that artists should keep in mind?

Thanks :)

Good catch! The book's dimensions will be 6x9 inches. We'll scale all pages to make sure they are not too close to the spine.

WELCOME MATT! And I can't wait for the submissions to come in!

YES! Life Meter 3 is on the way!

I wonder if as a pixel artist I stand a chance of getting in?

Sounds fun! Is there a page limit/preferred amount for comics?

There's no page limit really, especially if the comic is good. But we are highly unlikely to publish your 30+ page comic in print. Usually we have 3-5 page comics with the upper limit being 8-10 pages.
