Not an April Fool's joke – today's puzzle is another meta contest!
First and foremost, though, it's Emet Ozar's world constructing debut! We've been chatting over the past few weeks, and she is awesome. I'm so stoked to have teamed up with her on this puzzle.
Emet says: "Honored to be a part of this meta puzzle with Matthew! This is my first official puzzle appearance anywhere besides my wife’s bedside table. Matthew has been crucial in helping me sharpen my skills. This puzzle was a blast to make and I learned a ton throughout the whole process. Enjoy the fresh hot cross buns!"
Onto the puzzle. Here's a hint:
The answer to the meta is a cartoon character.
