Taco has been handed a brand‐new Changelog to keep track of every tweak, translation, and panel update. Now, you can follow DNSSEC adventures, and watch Taco document its own detective work in real time. Expect more entries as we chase down crabs, fix signatures, and occasionally write about writing about writing.
Taco just scored a special upgrade: now, when you share the comic on social media, you’ll see a unique, eye‐catching illustration instead of a plain link preview. We also added OEmbed support so X, Mastodon, and friends fetch a custom panel snippet—perfect for teasing each episode's DNSSEC shenanigans. Next time you paste a comic URL, watch Taco pop onto your feed in style!
Taco's calling all polyglots! There's now a dedicated page where you can submit your own translations of the comic! Whether you speak español, français, 日本語, or any other language, you can upload your YAML files, review the guidelines, and watch your words appear in the next update. Send us your translation and let Taco share your language skills with the world!
Taco just got a major tune‐up—we made several behind‐the‐scenes adjustments to enhance game flow and overall playability. We refined puzzle logic, smoothed out navigation between rooms, and squashed a couple of nagging bugs that caused stalls. Now the adventure is more intuitive, snappier, and even a little more forgiving for first‐time players. Test your DNSSEC skills without tripping over any stumbling blocks.
