Production Update | April 2025
Hello, friends. I hope you're well.
This month I uploaded a director's commentary for the eighth episode of Arby 'n' the Chief's eighth season for my paying subscribers and YouTube members at the Gosu tier and above. It's an hour and forty minutes long and concludes my commentary on the season's initial 2001: A Space Odyssey parody arc.
I'm about 740 recorded shots into the production of my second episode of Hard Justice, my Halo: Reach machinima series revolving around cops and aliens.
The first episode was comprised of about 750 shots in total, and the final product turned out to be a little over an hour long. I'd be pretty much done shooting the new one by now if the length was the same, which was roughly intended in the writing across its three chapters, but I've still got about another two to three hundred shots to record; it could end up being comprised of at least a thousand shots in total.
I know it's taking a long time and I haven't even started editing, but the shooting is the really heavy lifting, in particular regard to time consumption. Once that's done, relatively speaking it won't take me long to whip up assembly and rough cuts of the whole thing with placeholder dialogue, especially since a lot of the editing of the video has been, figuratively, done in my head as early as the writing phase.
I estimate I'll need another couple of months to work on the episode before I'm ready to release it, barring any significant snags regarding external voiceover delivery.
My streaming continues as usual. This month I made a couple of videos out of rants from my streams, one being a review of A Minecraft Movie, and the other consisting of my thoughts on the Switch 2 following Nintendo's Direct stream about it.
Every month, starting with this one, I'd like to put out at least one upload in the form of a highlights reel consisting of all the funny bits across one or multiple streams of my playthrough of a single game.
This is something I did in the past and, at the time, decided against due to a lack of viewership, but I've reconsidered the value of. Regardless of immediate viewership I think it's good comedic material to build a playlist of over time, and give people who don't tune into all the streams all the way through which, I think it's safe to assume, is most people, as well as maintain monthly uploads, and to credit all my producers every month for something in video form.
I've finished streaming Halo games, at least for now. I'm not interested in streaming Infinite at the moment due to its relatively recent release and, in my opinion, lackluster campaign.
I've been making my way through Lies of P and am almost done, I should be able to wrap it up in one more stream. In one of them I went for almost twelve hours. Some people have, essentially, said I'm crazy for going on so long, but I enjoyed every bit of it, it didn't ever feel like a chore or work for me. On top of that I've had a bunch of people mention their enthusiasm and appreciation for the streams, for having them to listen to while working or sleeping, so it's a win-win; the way I see it I get to play a game I really like, come up with jokes, and laugh all evening and night, which I regard as time well spent. The icing on the cake is the hilarious contributions to chat that I appreciate and can riff off of, as well as, obviously, all the memberships and superchats, which help me tremendously and I'm always so grateful for.
After Lies of P I have another game lined up, being Lego Island, developed for Windows 95 PCs, which I own the disc for and managed to get running on my modern hardware and software through the installation of patches. I currently plan to leave my playthrough after that up to polling between a number of preferred options including Grand Theft Auto IV, Faith, the Zelda games on the Nintendo 64, and the Genesis-era Sonic the Hedgehog games.
A few of the reasons my big projects are taking longer than before are because of my regular weekend streaming, my dedicating a few days per month to cutting clips and creating videos from those streams, and that I'm dedicating more of my days to bodily fitness, staying on top of my errands, and some recreation. I used to sink up to 16 hours a day, at worst, into production to the detriment of my health, and that's something I'd rather not do anymore if I can avoid it. My viewers and supporters' allowance of and patience with that is another thing I'm very grateful for and, I think, ultimately aids the work.
I made guest appearances this month by kind invitation on Every Frame A Pause (EFAP) to break down A Minecraft Movie, the Gronkin' Gaming podcast to discuss the gaming news of those air days, and NextGen Nostalgia Gaming for a pre-recorded interview/discussion about my background and work.
I'm already scheduled for a few more guest appearances on a number of shows across May, so those who enjoy them can look forward to those. I'll announce and link to them on X as they come.
To paying supporters, remember to feel free to cancel your subscriptions at any time for whatever reason, I know my mainline stuff takes a long time to come out. Nobody owes me an excuse or apology, though I do appreciate exit surveys. I'm really grateful for everything.
For what it's worth, I haven't cleared my producer list of non-active paying subscribers for a long time, and won't until, at least, episode two of Hard Justice is released; meaning if you've ever been a Hax0r-tier Patreon subscriber or YouTube member since the last time I cut down the list, even if it was just a quick same-day one-and-done subscription and unsubscription to grab a particular perk, you can feel pretty safe that your name will be in the credits. The only way it won't be is due to some unlikely error, and I check and, if necessary, revise my producer list almost every day. If there is such an error, or has been in a recent upload, I encourage any of my backers to reach out to me via e-mail or a Patreon direct message and I'll do my best to rectify the issue.
Thank you all so much as always for your continued viewership and support of my work.

Production Update | March 2025
Hello, friends. I hope you're well.
Earlier this month I released two commentaries for my Gosu-tier backers, on episodes six and seven of Arby 'n' the Chief season eight, to make up for the prior lack. I appreciate my backers' patience.
Today I released a teaser for episode two of Hard Justice, my next major upload, consisting of a dialogue scene featuring the original series' trio of lead cops and a string of action shots.
I hate to make people wait so long for it but it's an enormous project. I've recorded about 500 shots and still have a lot to record before I move onto casting and editing. The structure of the episode is the same as the first and I expect it to be roughly the same length, being an hour. I hope people are still excited for it, I've been working very hard on it.
None of my backers at the Hax0r tier have been removed from my list of producers since my last video displaying them in the end credits. All new Hax0r-tier subscribers since then, even if they subscribed and canceled on the same day for quick access to a particular perk, have been added to and remain on the list, which will be displayed on the credits of Hard Justice episode two when it's done.
I've been continuing my Halo gaming streams throughout the month and am currently about halfway through Halo 5. Once it's done I'd like to move onto a Lies of P 'new game plus' run, for a change. I'm not interested in moving onto Halo Infinite as it came out too recently and doesn't have an interesting enough campaign in my opinion.
I've started posting clips from my streams on X daily to increase interest in my streaming and present fans who don't tune into the full streams with highlights without cluttering my YouTube uploads page.
I have plenty of ideas for Arby 'n' the Chief but they're on the backburner for a while, at least until I get episode two of Hard Justice done. I plan to do holiday specials for Halloween and Christmas if I can conjure good enough ideas and develop them in time.
I've appeared as a guest this month a couple of times on the Gronkin' Gaming podcast, and once on SideScrollers. I'm always grateful for the invitations.
Thank you all so much as always for your generous support of, patience with and viewing of my work!

Hello, friends. I hope you're well.
I released a new commentary for my paying subscribers on Patreon, YouTube and SubscribeStar, on episode five of Arby 'n' the Chief's eighth season. It's just under an hour long.
I recorded two commentaries back-to-back to make up for the recent lack but, as I wrote on X previously, the second was, unfortunately, overly damaged by audio interference. I didn't re-record it immediately as I felt too frustrated and that re-iterating all the points I had just made would feel inorganic to myself and viewers; I need to leave it for a bit before a re-attempt. I'll record and release batch of new ones soon.
I finally finished the script for my second episode of Hard Justice in the first part of February and, across the rest of the month, have staged and recorded about 160 shots.
The first episode was composed of roughly 750 shots in total, so I've still got a ways to go, but progress is being made, and what's been shot is turning out well. It's a very time-consuming process, but in order to achieve the cinematic effect I'm known for, it's the way it has to be.
I've been absent from streaming for a while but plan to start back up again tonight, resuming my playthrough of the Halo games with the starting of Halo: Reach.
I do enjoy streaming but felt I wanted some time away from it, as well as my weekends to focus creatively and relax, and I greatly appreciate everyone's patience and desire for more.
I've had a considerable amount of hours of work from my other job to stay on top of, which I have been, and am currently managing to. I've also managed to restore and even intensify my work-out routine, keeping myself healthy and productive.
I made a couple of appearances on Metal's Forge this month to discuss among a panel our most anticipated games of 2025, and to play some Echo Point Nova co-operatively.
Thanks so much as always to my paying supporters and viewers for your generosity, patience and encouragement, I truly appreciate it!

Production Update | January 2025
Hello, friends. I hope you're well and had a happy New Year's Day.
As I wrote in my last update, I've been taking it easier this month after going hard in production at last year's end. I went a bit off the rails in regard to diet and exercise to keep myself working and I've since re-calibrated, getting back to a stable routine, eating less and exercising significantly more. I'm feeling good.
That being the case, I haven't actually taken time off this month other than a few days throughout. Not that I'm complaining, I simply enjoy my work, only I have a lighter and healthier pace at the moment, which I'm grateful to be working at.
Aside from catching up with and staying on top of a surge of external editing work after an absence of it in December so I could focus on my Die Hard parody, the thing I've been working on almost every day is my script for the second episode of Hard Justice, re-writing one or more scenes per day.
I've been re-writing it for a long time, and it may not seem like it, but the re-working has been necessary, not trivial. On every pass on the script I've done I've realized certain beats and scenes don't work at all or nearly as well as they could. It's an extremely complicated project, especially for one person to produce single-handedly in every phase. Some great and essential material has been inserted in the most recent revisions that I wouldn't have conceived without all the re-working.
The script is currently in a plaintext markdown form with full prose and dialogue, but no page count. I recently imported it into my screenwriting application to get an estimate of the runtime of the final product, and the document should be about sixty pages, meaning the episode should run for a little over an hour like the first one, which is about what I expected as the structure is the same, three chapters. The script's very visually detailed and when it's done, not only will I know what every single shot is, but almost exactly how to go about executing and recording them.
Although I still don't want to give an ETA on it, I will say it's very nearly complete, I'll continue to pick away at it as much as I can every day, and I will do my best to maintain momentum with the season and get the scripts for future episodes completed quicker, I know it's taking ages.
Taking a month now and then to focus solely on writing is something I'd like to keep up, it's easier on me than constantly switching hats throughout each day in regard to development, production and post-production.
I've been so focused on Hard Justice I still haven't gotten around to recording, cutting and uploading video commentaries on my older work exclusively for my backers, but when I do, I'll upload one or two extra videos to compensate for the lack.
I haven't gotten around to restarting my regular streaming either, but I plan to when I've finally gotten the script in a shootable state. I really appreciate the enthusiasm from those who enjoy tuning into my streams and have been asking about their return. I plan on resuming my playthrough of the Halo games and the next one will be Reach. I may move onto the 343 Halo games afterwards or leave it up to an online vote.
I appeared on a few shows this month: Every Frame A Pause for a discussion of snobbery and pretentiousness among YouTubers, Metal's Forge to contribute to a breakdown of the 1984 film The Terminator, and the SideScrollers and Gronkin' Gaming podcasts to discuss the various gaming and entertainment news of those days.
As always, I'm so grateful for everyone's support of and patience with my work, and anybody who contributes to me financially is free to cancel their subscription at any time. Thank you!

Production Update | December 2024
Hello, friends. I hope you're well.
I am, and had a great Christmas, but I need to take a break for a little while, or at least just take my foot off the gas a fair bit, as I'm exhausted.
I released a new video earlier today, my Arby Christmas 2024 special, a parody of Die Hard (1988). I hope you check it out, enjoy it, and leave a comment, I'd really appreciate it as I genuinely enjoy reading comments, it makes the time spent working feel so much more worthwhile.
I worked myself to the bone on the video, as well as my Arby video before it about Nintendo World Championships on Switch, though the Die Hard one was particularly strenuous. I've only taken a few days off across the past two months, one of them Christmas, and much of those days were simply spent lying down.
I haven't released bonus content exclusively for my backers in the form of a commentary this month, I hope that's alright. My plate was full trying to get the parody done by the month's end.
I've gone off-track regarding my sleep schedule, exercise, and healthy eating in order to keep myself working. I need to re-calibrate. I've also gotten a bunch of new games and movies over the past couple of months and I've barely taken any time to experience them. I'd very much like to. Beyond the leisure, it's creatively beneficial to me to absorb the work of others.
Regarding work, I may just take January to stream, record commentaries for my patrons, and otherwise only pick away at my script for my second episode of Hard Justice, which I know people are anticipating.
I'm not sure when I'll stream next, I will when I feel up to it.
I hope you enjoyed the holidays. Thank you all very much as always for your viewership, encouragement, and generous financial support, I really appreciate everything. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year!

Production Update | November 2024
Hello, friends. I hope you're well.
I can't get my new Arby 'n' the Chief out before December. I'm sorry about that. It's almost done, though. I've been working intensely across my projects this month, but I could've budgeted my time a bit better.
I'd like to give you two Arby videos in December. I'll put the first of them out within the next week, which is Arby 'n' the Chief Play Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition. It's all written and shot, all the dialogue's done, and I'm about halfway through post-production on it, I just need a couple more days at least to finish it off, do a sound mix, and a quality assurance pass.
In addition to staying on top of a surge of external work from clients, I spent a bit too much time working ahead on a script for an Arby Christmas special, which is the second of the two videos I mentioned, as I think a holiday special from me is overdue. It's a parody of the movie Die Hard, and I'm aiming to release it on Christmas day. The script has come together nicely and is almost done.
I'd like to keep the December billing cycle of my Patreon account in place, but also remind my generous supporters on the platform that they're free to cancel their subscription or request a refund at any time.
Work continues bit-by-bit on Hard Justice. I don't have anything new to say about it, except to reiterate that I appreciate everyone's patience with it.
I've been trying to stream gameplay with regularity on Friday and Saturday nights. I hope enough people have been enjoying them as much as I have, and consider them having some value. Some days or weekends I have too much other work to do and won't stream, like this one.
The financial support via the streams has been incredible, I'm so grateful for everything, thank you to everyone who contributed.
I've started my (mostly) weekly streams with the Halo games. This month I've played through Halo 2 and 3. My Halo 3: ODST playthrough is in progress. I'd like to at least do Halo: Reach after.
I've appeared as a guest on a couple of shows across November. The first is Metal's Forge, hosted by Metalcommander (@Metal_Commander) and MarcTheCyborg (@CyborgMarc), for a discussion on the film V For Vendetta. The other is the Gronkin' Gaming Podcast (@Gronk__Squad), hosted by Lethal Lightning (@LethalLightnin), Mozza (@Mrmozza22), The Creamnado (@The_Creamnado), and John Conners (@TheJohnConners), for an offline pre-recording to discuss what makes a game a failure.
Thank you all very much for your interest, viewership, patience, encouragement, constrictive criticism, subscriptions, memberships and pledges, I'm tremendously grateful for everything as always, and I wish you all happy holidays.

Production Update | October 2024
Hello, friends.
I hope you had a happy Halloween.
I received a couple of e-mails from Patreon outlining policy updates that my backers on the platform should know about, if they haven't already been informed by the company via e-mail as contributors -- my understanding is that a governmental change of Canadian sales tax will result in my patrons in my country paying a slightly increased fee, and that Apple is making Patreon go through their in-app purchase system, resulting in an additional small fee for any patrons using Apple products to facilitate their support.
Earlier this month I put out Arby 'n' the Chief Play Pools, the game basically being a walking simulator in a liminal space, and another Arby 'n' the Chief season eight episode commentary exclusively for my YouTube members and patrons at the Gosu tier and above. The latter's about an hour long.
I've been streaming my playing video games a lot more, and would like to maintain a weekly regularity if I can.
My streams across October include gameplay of Sonic Adventure 2, Halo: Combat Evolved, one with the Ruby's Rebalanced mod applied and another for Halloween with the Cursed Again mod, Sonic x Shadow Generations, and Halo 2: Anniversary.
The streams aren't guaranteed and don't begin at a specific time, but whenever my Friday and Saturday evenings are open and I'm not too busy, I'm happy to do them.
The support so far across viewership, memberships and donations has been absolutely astounding, and I'm deeply grateful for everything.
My Arby 'n' the Chief Plays video revolving around Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition is still in production, and I continue to pick away at my script for the second episode of Hard Justice, among a number of other scripts.
Sorry for the slow progress on Hard Justice, but it's a complex project, almost a feature film in essence that I'm making on my own, and I don't want to rush it.
Particularly in consideration of the financial support I've been receiving recently via YouTube, if a month goes by in which I don't put out any exclusive material for my patrons or any public releases from my mainline production, I will and am more than happy to pause my Patreon billing cycle, and any of my patrons or YouTube members are obviously free to cancel their subscriptions at any time.
My appearances on other streams and shows in October include Metal's Forge hosted by Metalcommander and MarcTheCyborg (@Metal_Commander, @CyborgMark) to break down Joker: Folie a Deux, TruePopCulture7's show (@TrueCulture7) to talk about the same film, John's Entertainment Broadcast hosted by Hyperbolic Ninja (@Hyperbolic433) to discuss the panel's favorite characters in media, and Every Frame A Pause hosted by MauLer, Fringy, and Rags (@MauLer93, @fringy123) to break down John Carpenter's 1982 film The Thing.
Thank you so much to everyone as always for your patience, encouragement and generous support.

Production Update | September 2024
Hello, friends.
I'm sorry to say I won't be uploading anything mainline and edited by the month's end; not without straining myself, and I'm exhausted as it is.
I was going to -- I have an Arby video fully written and shot, and well into post-production -- but I'm now quite low on time and energy, and I'd like a bit more time with it.
To (hopefully) make up for the lack, I'd like to spend the last days of September doing a couple of streams; one for chatting, and one for resuming my playthrough of Sonic Adventure 2.
As I paused my Patreon for two months back-to-back during my move, when I wasn't working, pausing it again now would amount to a significant financial hit, and I have actually been working my ass off on content this month, which I'll go into detail about below, for those who care.
So, I'd like to leave charging unpaused; but any backers are, of course, free to cancel their subscription before the billing cycle begins, on the 1st of October.
On the commentaries, I'm also sorry about the audio issues. In the two I've done most recently -- on the first two episodes of Arby season eight -- my voice track has been quiet; in the second one in particular, as my microphone was too far from my mouth. I'll address this for the commentaries to come, by upping my gain and tweaking my microphone filters.
I've been pushing myself pretty hard, in multiple aspects.
As usual, I've been juggling the script development of multiple projects.
These include three Arby uploads: one is about the toys playing a game called Pools, which is the one I'm almost done with altogether. Another involves them playing Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition, the script of which is also done. The third is a trailer for all the story seasons that also functions as an epilogue to them. The script for that is done too.
I also continue to pick away at the script for episode two of Hard Justice, of which I've still got about a chapter and a half to polish. I wrote a couple scenes I realize don't work in the grand scheme and need to revise.
Additionally, I've been jumping between production and post-production on a number of projects. These include the three Arby uploads I mentioned; all three are fully written and currently in various stages of post-writing completion. They all at least have all the dialogue, arrangement, and subtitling work done.
I haven't taken a day off, weekends included. I've only briefly stopped working on my content to work on much smaller projects from external clients for some extra income, make a few appearances on other people's shows (SideScrollers, Metal's Forge, and the Gronk Squad's gaming stream), run important errands, and exercise. I take a couple hours most nights to decompress by watching a movie or playing a game.
I've been juggling so many things in an attempt to get a month ahead in production, so I can spend a bit less time writing or editing each day to make some room for streaming -- which I know people want -- as well as more recreational time for myself.
I've been doing a full-body workout almost every day. I've lost about seven pounds over the month (without factoring in the muscle I've gained), helped additionally by a radical elimination diet -- no sugar, alcohol, caffeine, or anything that can aggravate the bowels -- which I'm on in an attempt to resolve my abdominal and acid reflux issues.
I realize I have a few days left in the month to work, and the original plan was to crunch on the Arby Pools video, and hopefully get it out by or on the month's last day.
Yesterday, despite getting adequate sleep, I woke up really fatigued. Not sick, not in pain, just physically exhausted. I could barely walk across a room, let alone concentrate on work. I had to take a day.
Thank you very much as always for the continued support of my paying subscribers, as well as viewers, subscribers, and commenters in general, including people who read these updates I take time to write carefully, I really appreciate everything.

Production Update - August 2024
Hello, friends. I hope you're well.
I'm doing well. I've been thinking I should take the time to inject these updates with a bit more interesting personal details beyond project updates.
I've dedicated a bit more time per day to physical fitness. It's been tough for me to lose weight. I have abdominal issues that I think contribute to a slow metabolism. I decided I need to up the exercise to both help mend my issues and see desirable results. I do one to three sets to exhaustion of about a dozen exercises per day, from squats to weight lifting. It's a slog to get through, but I entertain myself by also using the time to catch up on my YouTube playlist, which I value greatly, and constantly frame it in my head as reserved time for something important that influences all my other activity, including my creative work. I think exercising enables you to maximize your thought.
I've resumed Patreon billing. My paying subscribers will be charged within the first week of September. I finally got around to doing some work. I had a lot on my mind and things to do in moving to a new place. Now I finally feel I've settled back into a creatively productive routine.
I removed all downloads of my music for my video productions as a perk of all paying subscriptions on crowdfunding platforms. I've now released compilations of all my archived tracks as albums for free listening and sale on a variety of platforms made primarily for music, YouTube included, which I'd prefer to incentivize activity on.
One of my main YouTube releases this month has been the first volume of said albums in video form, with track names and time codes. I have three more prepared for approximately weekly release.
I haven't made music in a while. I've dabbled in it very occasionally since my last track, but found it surprisingly difficult to slip back into the required mode of thought. Too many other things on my mind, I suppose. I'm working on something, though very slowly.
I released a video commentary from me on the first episode of Arby's eighth season for my Gosu-tier subscribers. I'd like to submit commentary on most of these particular episodes monthly due to their length. Some of them are like movies in terms of runtime, and I pause the episodes when providing commentary, which tends to triple the duration.
I'm still working at re-writing the second episode of Hard Justice. I have an updated method of breaking down scenes structurally in text form that makes every detail of shooting every scene as easy as it's possible for me to absorb at a glance, and I'm applying it to every scene in the initial draft of the episode, along with line-by-line dialogue revision. It may sound unnecessary, but it's led to character moments and dynamics I consider crucial and wouldn't have otherwise considered.
Another of my primary YouTube releases this month has been the video Arby 'n' the Chief Play Luigi's Mansion 2.
Over time and a variety of projects it's hard for me to assess what my viewers find overall preferable in regard to video length. With this Play series, I'd like entries to run at an average length between five and ten minutes. This is to both make it easier on me in regard to production and maximize releases and viewer engagement.
I'm currently developing and close to completing the script for another one revolving around Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition.
Another Arby thing I'm working on, which has taken the lead at the moment in regard to production priority, is a short epilogue to the story seasons, containing uniquely recorded footage and dialogue, that also functions as a trailer for the series for people just discovering the show.
I strammed a strem (stream) on the internetwork of computers, in which I clumsily talked about some news, technology and media. I made a couple uploads out of it, consisting of my thoughts on Robert Downey Jr.'s casting as Doctor Doom, and the Deadpool & Wolverine movie. I will continue this pattern when I feel up to it and have the time and enough to talk about.
Additionally I picked up my playthrough of Sonic Adventure 2 in a separate stream. Thankfully the soft-lock on Eternal Engine wasn't an issue this time, though my shamefully faded gaming skills remain one.
I made a few adjustments to my website and YouTube channel page, including additional menu categories and items, link fixes, and playlist visibility and arrangement.
Thank you very much as always to all my viewers for their patience in allowing me to cook many things to quality, and paying subscribers old and new who generously support my work. Everything is enormously appreciated.

July Production Update
Hello, friends.
I'm pausing my Patreon income for another month. None of my supporters will be charged at the start of August.
Last month I switched off from production almost entirely to focus on moving. This month I have spent time writing, but still been bogged by moving tasks and building and lighting my new office, and am not yet in a position to deliver anything concrete, including bonus content. It's a lot of money to take and I always want to be able to give my supporters something in return. I'm sorry for the wait. I've been a bit sick with stress and having a difficult time being creative and getting in the mood to stream. My attempts and effort in writing to get a video made has felt like sprinting in mid-air exhaustively and getting nowhere, like a Hanna-Barbera cartoon. I'm hoping to settle into a productive routine now and produce something cool soon.
Things I'm developing include the script for the second episode of Hard Justice, an achievable weekly Arby 'n' the Chief series consisting of very short episodes, a "Play" series in which the toys play a variety of new games, episodes of which being longer and less frequent, starting with Luigi's Mansion 2 HD, a special mini-series involving the toys travelling through time to different gaming generations, Mediabyss episodes, YouTube video versions of my music albums displaying track names and numbers based on the active track, dividing my live stream show into segments, each with a unique video introduction, a crowdfunding call-to-action video that also functions as a trailer for my work, and beginning my video commentaries on Arby 'n' the Chief's eighth season as bonus content for my Gosu-tier financial supporters. I also hope to find the energy to soon resume my Sonic Adventure 2 playthrough on another live stream.
Additionally, I'm scheduled to appear on a number of others' stream shows across the next several days. I agreed to the appearances at the cost of time that I could be spending working on my own projects as a way of escaping the latter for a bit and helping me relax, as I've felt that I've been under a lot of pressure and very much enjoy the discussions. I hope you do too.
I really appreciate everyone's patience with and support of my work as always. Thank you.
