Updates Incoming! (Blog) (Patreon)

I don't have a whole lot to report this week unfortunately. All the going on's from the previous post are still going on this week, though there is an abundance of content on the way!

The Update) Next week, I've got a channel update just to explain some of the things going on, why the year is off to a slower start than I'd like and all of that so be sure to peep that when you see it for a more detailed rundown of everything going on so far in 2018, and flowing over from 2017. Along with that however, Testing Videos will be RETURNING next week as well. Update on my normal upload day, Testing later in the week as usual! I'm very happy with this episode of Game Testing, a lot of good stuff in there. The video is titled DISNEY SUCKS so, let your mind ponder that in the meantime. I will mention here that EARLY ACCESS for the update video won't be happening, primarily for the reason that I don't know when that is going to get done in the remainder of the week (and it is a busy one, got a lot of family stuff going on unfortunately but that's life) so, it'll just be easy to scrap early access to that from the start. It is just a channel update, surely I can get away with that?

Upcoming Stuff) Testing is coming back in a big way in the early stages of this year. I've got LITERAL STACKS of games here. Some are to be tested in private for the sake of videos and a few other stacks specifically for testing episodes, with more on the way! I mentioned about the social medias that my last remaining video store started it's closing down sale on Monday, so I stocked up on some good (and good for videos) games fairly cheap there. Looking at this pile as well as what's on it's way, I'd estimate some 5-6 testing episodes waiting to be shot PLUS, the first episode for the year which I edited yesterday ready WELL AHEAD for next week! So that's pretty cool. So depending how things go, they'll be out every week or every other week. Speaking of stuff on the way, I spoke last time about upgrading my setup for better quality gameplay. Just a minor update to that: the Framemeister device is on it's way, so I am going to wait until it arrives, before I do too much retro console stuff this year as I want it to look it's best. So capping full playthroughs of games that'll look terrible and will need re-capping in a week or two, seems counter productive to me.

What that Means for Reviews) I have decided on something to hold us over until I get 2018 setup, if you will. Next week is actually the 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY of my FIRST YouTube Upload! It's not THAT big of a deal but I've decided that it might be another good chance to:

A): Do a mini theme for a little while, much like N64 and Rareware Games last year. This would be sort of like an Origins mini set of videos.

B): Another chance to go back and make good on some older projects, but we'll see what happens.

Everything could change before then but seeing as it's the best thing I've come up with to follow Simpsons Mobile Games, I'm sure we'll go down that route before ultimately coming back to more large scale productions. They're still in planning stages currently, once this up scaling device is here and I'm ready to start capping gameplay again, those projects will start getting seriously underway so I'm excited for that! But for right now, I'll still trying to get into it all but of course, more details on that in next week's update video, just to save repeating myself!

So thank you for reading as always and I hope you have a great fucking day. Check out this awesome artwork I received on Twitter a few days ago and take it easy, cheers guys!
