Hey! Welcome to episode 4 of No Cartridge Audio! We have here our first Patron only piece, one that is on the ever elusive and strange Euro Truck Simulator 2. Music is by the immortal CW McCall, and it's "Convoy." Enjoy!

Welcome to the third episode of No Cartridge Audio, where we encounter our first real thinker -- whether or not games can say their difficulty counts as an aesthetic, and whether interactivity and duration are enough to set games apart as medium specific. We don't come to any conclusions, but we ope...

Hey all!
So long time, no see on the Patreon front, and for this, I'm sorry. Hopefully you've all been following along on the newly titled blog, No Cartridge, at the old site (video-drone.tumblr.com), but if not, there's tons of new stuff there for you.
As has been long promised, there's som...
2017-02-25 05:19:46 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
So, apologies for the lack of writing! I've been working on much more ambitious games which, ah, are longer usually than the shorter evocative games I've been covering. Soon I'll have a backlog and we'll start back up on weekly work. But in the meantime, I'll be doing a lot more vide...

Hey all!
So, sorry for the long layoff -- I just finished my dissertation defense and boy are my arms tired. Anyhow, I'm back on the horse and with some new ideas, chief among them being Videodrone Audio, which is a reading of the article over some gameplay footage for those of you who would prefe...

Hi all!
So, as you can see, I've updated the rewards on the right. I thought it might be a way to spruce things up around here and let you know I've not forgotten about the Patreon or the product. It's just been a month, is all.
In any case, many of you slot into these tiers, and are not lis...

Hi all!
Thanks so much for your patience! It's been a heck of a month with moving across country and starting a new teaching gig, but I have not forgotten about Videodrone. In fact, there's a new one up -- 2016-08-19 20:19:34 +0000 UTC View Post

And here's some live video. I think it's my best yet, for what it's worth!

Hey! So, here's my updated Starseed video where I've worked out the game a bit better. The volume issues were worked out a bit, though I think I need to figure out how not to back away from the mic. Like I promised though: better bit by bit. Article probably out by Friday!

Here's my first attempt at videogames with commentary, this time on the very strange Starseed Pilgrim. I'll make this one public, but the rest will be subscriber only. Hopefully they'll improve over time too -- first attempt, etc, etc.
2016-05-01 19:26:35 +0000 UTC View PostHi all,
First off, thank you so much for all of your support! This is above and beyond what I'd expected, and I'm almost hesitant to expect any more. But I'll keep pushing the patreon out to try and expand our cozy patron bunch here.
To that end, I'm going to start updating this Patr...
