It's just about time to have ourselves another exciting 'COMMUNITY ANNOUNCEMENT' on account of my radio-silence the last 7 months since the last exciting 'C O M M U N I T Y A N N O U N C E M E N T'.

First things first, sorry for going off the grid here. I've actually been doing a lot this year, between desperately trying to work on projects too ambitious for my PC to render (LA Noire VR genuinely broke an SSD), tossing them in the garbage, working on something else, tossing it in the garbage for whatever reason, in a circle going forever. I'm never very happy with what I post, and the perfectionist in me is constantly making me reach for the 'start over' button. That said, I'm still chipping away at shit I am really happy about, LA Noire VR and others included. I just hope you all understand that I'm interested in staying vague to avoid Peter Molyneux levels of total BS rambling, since I do that literally every time I talk about work and then regret it weeks later. Thanks for watching the shit I do upload, whenever that is. Warms my heart.

All that out of the way, I've been dabbling in other ventures while YouTube as a platform goes up in literal, totally non-metaphorical hellfire. I stream 4 or so times a week on Twitch between working on other shit, and the Archive channel for those streams is now public for your viewing pleasure (I've actually been streaming at this rate since January, but was a little nervous to talk about it here). If you are one of those people that just wants to see more of me doing ANYTHING, that channel is linked below, and at the top of my "Featured Channels" list.

Streaming has essentially been my means of staying off the streets since YouTube honestly hasn't been able to support me for years. Even if I started uploading here daily, that wouldn't change. All the more reason to take my time, and make sure the things I do sporadically put up here are exactly what I want them to be, no compromise.

I'll continue to chip away at the videos I want to make, without any obligation to do so, because I love making them. I hope you guys stick around to watch them. If not, I totally understand.

Sorry for the essay, but you get to really think a lot on stuff like this over 7 months of stress.
I'll catch you guys when I catch you,

Hey all,


Not exactly sure how this is sent around, but I wanted to give this community thing a go to keep everyone at least a little in the loop with the goings-ons. Might help convince people I'm not dead every other week.


First things first, I have 4 big videos I'm in the process of recording/setting up rn, one video done, and one that would be done had I not been sick all last week coming back from a trip.


Tomorrow, a WoW video Blizzard paid for me to make'll be going up. I'm happy with how it turned out, and would've uploaded it either way to be honest, so win-win. It'll be followed up by something reallllll vintage a couple days later, pretty much just reliant on this cold going away already.


Immediately after that's wrapped up, I'm gonna be finishing up two 'spooky' videos:
LA Noire VR Corruptions (genuinely the most painful to record video I've ever worked on), followed by a secret video based on a horror game I LP'd back in the before-time.


Now either of those two might take longer or shorter than planned, it just depends on if the recording software will work with me, especially regarding LA.


I tease videos as I edit/record them on my Twitter, so if you ever want to see what I'm working on, there's a good chance there's something for it over here: twitter.com/Tomato_Gaming

Thanks for reading, let me know if this spammed you so bad you want me to never use it again. YouTube really never made it clear how it worked.
