Hope you enjoy this short tour of my new place! Sorry the video quality isn't the best, I didn't record this with the right settings and didn't realize until was too late.
2020-08-18 17:16:19 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
The SMB3 video is doing pretty great! It was sitting at 2/10 on my 10 most recent video releases in views after x time since release, and it was overtaken just today by the DK64 TAS explained video. Obviously, the top spot is the SM64 TAS, that one had major success immediately so it's no surprise. The first two SMB1 videos are not included in that list.
Anyway, I've been ...

I hope you enjoyed the last video. It was a lot of fun to make, and although the process was delayed a little bit by the move and all the related apartment work, I'm pretty happy with how fast it went from writing the script to uploading.
Speaking of the move, last week, we repainted the whole place and cleaned the floors thoroughly, and we're now almost done putting everything back in its place and calling this place home for real! This means I should be able to d...

First of all, apologies for the late update. I kept putting it off for some reason, but at least I have some good news to compensate!
So, I've been doing some pretty good work on the video, but I've also been kept busy by other stuff (mostly the apartment, again). The next week's gonna be especially intense for me, as we're repainting the apartment, I'm finishing this video, and I'm editing a lot of content at once for Kosmic! My girlfriend took a week off work, too, so I m...

Last week was great! In the past 5 days, I found my groove and got a lot of stuff done. I decided to show you what I did in images!
I made this diagram to show where you end up when you take a warp whistle:

Hello!
Despite this update being a bit later than planned, the move actually went well. However, there were more things to do than we originally thought, and we're still not done with getting everything cleaned up and decorated to our taste. I do have a fully functional space to work in now, which is nice.
Part 1: The apartment
After moving in, we had to clean everything, of course. The kitchen had these ugly fake wood, MACtac-like adhesive covers on all the...

So, just like I already announced, I am moving. After I'm done typing up this update, it's gonna be time to pack up the computer and the other few things I still have left here and drive 2 hours to my girlfriend's parents' place. We're moving on July 1st and should be about set up around the 4th. For now, I'm setting the date to resume work on the 4th, but that's the earliest point possible. It could end up being delayed a few days while we finish settling.

So, despite having to spend 3 days away, I actually was able to get stuff done this week.
The super secret project advanced quite a bit. I got 4 pages of partial script and documentation fleshed out, and will be waiting on the run to complete the rest and order it properly.
Super Mario Bros. 3 advanced a lot! The script is now 95% done. All that's left is filling out a few blanks, like how many frames is this window, how much time does this save exactly, stuff like th...

OoT's Wrong Warp explained Part 2 is finally out! My expectations for it were pretty low, considering how Part 1 went, but it still managed to somehow disappoint. Here's a graph of the views over the first 7 days after publishing OoT Part 2 (blue) vs. DK64 TAS (purple).
But that's ok. I wanted to finish the project out, and I do believe it was a good one. And even though Y...

2020-06-11 00:38:38 +0000 UTC View PostHello!
In my last post, I said that I would come back next week with a release date. That was a mistake.
Because, it turns out, things are going so well that next week was too far away! I am over 85% done. So, I will be releasing the video next week. When exactly?
Well, I'm not quite 100% sure just yet, but I think it's going to be Wednesday at 8 pm EDT. I will announce the date and time very soon, I just gotta figure out a detail or two first. It will once ...
2020-06-06 02:48:26 +0000 UTC View PostHello!
So, after last week's poll results were fairly modest, I decided against doing livestreams for now. But for everyone who was interested in them, I am not throwing out the idea altogether. I think that with a larger audience, these could be interesting, but for now, my Patreon is a little too small to warrant it.
On the bright side, though, I am progressing! During the week, my girlfriend was coming over and her car broke down, so I had to drive her the rest of the way to my...
2020-06-02 00:24:03 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
I have good news! My motivation is back. I hit some roadblocks, I had some bad days in the last week too, but overall, I've been making progress and I'm happy with the result. I had started to doubt my script and I was thinking that maybe I didn't take the right approach and all that, but after diving back in it, I do believe I did things right and it's gonna be a good video. Sure, it's not gonna get an incredible reach, but it's gonna be a video that I can be proud of.<...
2020-05-26 16:47:24 +0000 UTC View PostPlease answer ACCURATELY to the best of your judgement. Don't try to be flattening. I already understand that my polished content on YouTube and raw livestreams of video editing are wildly different and being interested in one has little bearing on being interested in the other.
The rest of the context is from my latest text post, Production update 2020-05-26 and a poll!
I'm considering doing livestreams of the editing process specifically for patrons. Th...

First of all, I need to apologize for the lack of updates. I'll get into why, but honestly, I shouldn't have let the silence go on for that long.
So, what happened to me?
Well, to put it simply, I couldn't work. I kind of wish I had a good reason, but it really just boiled down to this: I couldn't bring myself to edit Part 2. But let's back up a bit.
I moved in with my parents on April 7th, and it took a while to get set up, but after about a week, I was ...

I've been talking about this for a long time now, but the move is done now. I'm pretty much settled, although I do need to move my desk (for the third time). I will officially begin working on Part 2 of OoT Wrong Warp in two days, on April 11th. So, you can start expecting production updates again!
In the meantime, I will be on the GSA Super Mario Maker 2 Expert Mode League Playoffs against Enviosity tomorrow at 7:30 pm EDT. I don't expect to win as I am very much the under...

2020-04-01 18:25:26 +0000 UTC View PostThe video is out! I will post it "officially" on Patreon on April 1st, because the previous video was also in March and I don't want you guys to be double billed. Here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bgq3aiulecM

Hello everyone!
As I type these words, I am done* editing the video on OoT Wrong Warp. The release is officially announced for this Friday at 7 pm EDT!
This time, I decided to do a watch party on my stream instead of a YouTube premiere. There are some annoying things about a YouTube premiere that I think a watch party on my Twitch mostly fixes. So, I'm gonna try that format out!
I hope everyone shows up!

These days, I feel very fortunate that YouTube is my full-time job. I saw my brother, my mother, and my girlfriend all go without work in the past week and it's not fun. I need to say that I am very thankful for my YouTube audience, but particularly to you guys for your extra support. It really means a lot to me.
Good news, though! I've been working well and been doing some decent progress. I believe I am now firmly past the halfway mark on part 1 of Wrong Warp exp...

The apartment hunt is still ongoing, and with only two weeks left where I currently live, it's becoming more and more pressing to find a place soon. So, I've spent a bunch of time in the past week comparing ads, calling people and visiting apartments in person. With the current situation, lots of visits are being postponed, so this makes things a little more complex.
That being said, I still made progress! I'm about a third of the way done editing Part 1 of Ocarina...

2020-03-04 15:19:21 +0000 UTC View PostI've been at very high productivity in the past couple of days.
Last week, I spent most of my time apartment hunting (this is still ongoing right now) and doing various stuff with my girlfriend. Long story short, I didn't get too much done in that time.
This week is a whole other story. Since Wednesday, I edited a good 15 minutes. That's right: in 3 days, 15 minutes. Today alone, I got a whopping 7 minutes of edited video done, on top of recording the audio for those same 7 minute...

I have good news and bad news.
Bad news first: real life is getting in the way of things. I spent most of my week away from the computer, I got sick (still on the tail end of it), and I am also hardcore apartment hunting. Seriously, I spent the entire day yesterday reviewing about 40 apartments and selecting the best 5. They were all already taken or we couldn't talk to anyone, so the search is ongoing.
Good news: once that's out of the way, I'll be able to fully focu...

My birthday was last week, and in the festivities, I couldn't work as much as usual. I also had to do boring stuff like shoveling a lot and going to various appointments, so overall, not a super productive week as far as the video goes.

As for the length, I can't tell jus...
