Sneak Peek Thumbnail Dark Eldering

It's gonna be -the very beginning of- May!

Hello fellas, yesterday I completed the sound editing! The parody has a running time of 42 minutes, similar to the original Eldering. There's a few things I need to take care of, still:

Recording the sound effects!

Hey guys, I'm recording the sound effects now and it's SO exciting to finally see the whole thing coming together. <3 However there is a big pain in the ass that I'm dealing with this week. Twitch announced that they will be deleting all saved videos on the 19th of April!... I was hoping that ...

ALMOST THERE!

Hey guys!
Did you know that I got married last month? :D The process was a bit of a rollercoaster, but we still kept things simple actually. Marrying was a logical step for us, since it makes being together so much easier and helps avoiding getting separated every 3 months due to the visa expi...

Happy New Year! UPDATE

Hello guys, I'm feeling much better now! This Christmas (for those who don't know) I had a NASTY gastrointestinal virus. It lasted for almost a week, and I had constant nausea tormenting me day and night.
