I made some (long overdue) slight changes to the Patreon Tiers to better reflect the current situation. (In the Netherlands we have some proverb for getting your act together when it's too late, but I don't know it in English):

"I brew some tea, get some snacks and enjoy it for the next 20-30 minutes. Having something for just 10-ish is too short, the tea would not even get cold enough for it to drink!"
Igor's comment first sounded like just a casual point to me, but it has kept "brewing" in the back of my m...

Just a short precourse to the next episode, where we'll prepare for the attack!
I find that sometimes the story which needs to be told, and the current game footage do not really match up well, so I record seperate sections outside of the current game to better illustrate the points made. I...

I just can't believe how quickly the Patreon supporter count has grown since I started this series! Thank you all! In case some of you only intended to support for one month, I decided to post the next video one day early, as it's the last day of Patreon's month.

Surprise! Since both ep4 and ep5 are fairly short, and I'm already working on ep7 atm, I decided to go ahead and do a double release this weekend. So, here's next week's video, ep6!

While ep 4, 5 and to a lesser degree 6 are a bit on the shorter side, they thematically just fit better in 3 seperate episodes than 2 half awkwardly mixed ones, so I decided to keep them apart. The good news is having the safety cushion of reducing the risk of having to skip a week later, should ...

Thanks for all the conspiracy-comments on the last video (the end)... As I have a busy day tomorrow, I'm writing this post the evening before, but I'm sure we tricked a lot of people, as I did a poll on Youtube claiming I would likely die in the next episode... As of it stands 51% of people think...

Episode 2 ends at th 59 minute mark, the rest of the footage will be episode 3, so don't watch past 59 minutes if you want to remain spoiler-free!

Well, it took long enough, but since a week or 2 I'm fully at it again! Here's the FIRST video in the new series: Factorio - the Ultimate DeathWorld Challenge! (link below is same video as above)

Hi everyone :)
I must admit I'm having a hard time editing the first episode of the ultimate deathworld challenge. It doesn't turn out to be suitable for my normal editing style with text-overs. I've switched over to Talking Mike, but since I'm pretty noobish with voice-overing, I've starte...

I'm not sure this is a good idea. Perhaps I'm looking to fail. I was also contemplating a megabase series (as my series usually end at the first rocket launch). If this turns out to be doable, perhaps this can become that megabase series too. It would be nice to show real dominance on a map (espe...

Here's the Final Preview of the conclusion of Factorio Tunnel Vision! Basically the Full Finale consists of 2 parts: finishing up the gameplay/challenge aspect, and the "cinematic" conclusion of the game. This preview is the Full First of the above.

I gotta stop trying to sync everything to the music, it just takes too long lol. Also doing only short editing sessions is kind of hindering. But next week I have not a lot of normie work ('flexible hours' job), so I'll probably be able to do some good old longer sessions which are more productiv...

Thanks for your patience with the new episodes. Tomorrow ep11 is released on Youtube, and today I finished ep12 (this video)! Today I worked on the last part of the video almost all day, and I'm happy to say it seems my hand/arm problems are slowly diminishing. I'll try to be...

After "Walking BLUEs" and "PURPLE rain", the titel was supposed to become "Never eat YELLOW Snow" as to indicate yellow science, but we didn't get that far... It seems they made late-game science more complicated than early game science, who would've thought!
Anyway, I'm still far from bein...

Hi :)
Originally I wanted to combine the rest of the playthrough in one big finale, but it looks like just the purple science part is going to be 20 minutes or so already! So I'll probably cut it in three more episodes: purple science, yellow science, and the finale with surprise epic concl...

Whoop die doo, another episode done! It was planned to be the penultimate episode and to edit the rest together in the big finale, but that may be a little TOO ambitious... I may do another seperate episode for purple and/or yellow science before that... If I DO combine it into one big finale, it...

Finally we're gettin' greasy!
After this episode, there will probably be one more regular episode before the grand finale. I have some ideas for new series (my personal way to achieve a 10k spm megabase, default settings but 600%/600% enemies and no starting area (this one maybe better for ...

Normally I post after the video has finished processing, but I'm in a bit of a hurry. The video is still uploading, so if it's not viewable or in crappy quality, come back a bit later. Gotta run!
