Postmortem: Volume 01 – Part 01: I want to crush (on) you

The longest part so far for Robomeks has ended. Eight months. 102 pages. How has it turned out to be?

In this post I’ll try to dissect part 01 and pinpoint its best and worst aspects. Because there’s no way to really know what works and what doesn’t, each point is based on the success when trying to achieve my personal goals in that particular aspect and, to a lesser extent, on readers’ feedback. In the conclusion I’ll deal with the possible solutions and what to expect in the following pages of Robomeks.

Due to its length, I’ve decided to separate this post in several pages. It would have been kilometric otherwise. That also means that there’s little chance that very few of you get to read the whole thing. So, read it or not, you can use this post to comment below on what do you think about the recently published part 01 (I gotta crush (on) you). I’m interested to know about what worked for you and what didn’t, which areas do you think are OK and which ones need improvement, what’s your favourite character so far… and any other thing you may come out with.

Robomeks is 1!

1yearcelebration1 200x300 Robomeks is 1! | ¡Robomeks cumple 1 año!

That’s it. Robomeks is 1 year old now.

There’s been a lot of changes since October 1st, back in 2008. The publishing schedule has gone from 6 pages released in one day per week to one page every week day, until the actual three days a week schedule. The site was redesigned, the art direction shifted and the page format went from vertical to the actual horizontal one. And I invested in advertisement, which has brought an interesting amount of readers since then.

But this is just the start. After the end of part 01 there’ll be more changes. New site design, new page size and yet another change in art direction. Robomeks is still growing up.

I don’t want to end this celebration post without thanking you all, Robomeks readers. Thanks for the patience and the trust on this little webcomic!

Oh and, happy birthday, Robomeks!
