Basically nothing happened over the course of December that's worth talking about on a podcast, so it's time for Game of the Year! I go through my Backloggery and talk about every game I finished. Or, well... most, anyway.

Strap in for maximum rambling and more disasters than you can shake a stick at. Maybe you'd like some cheese with your whine?
Links I mention in the podcast:
A month or two before I got my nice U37 microphone, I wrote and narrated a video about Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island and the state of the Wii U Virtual Console.

So I've uploaded bloopers from my videos before, but rarely are they super funny (you'll note, I haven't uploaded any in a while).
So, instead, here's the full length, uncut, raw audio for my reading of my Sonic Mania video review script. Every time I mess up a line, all of the noisy ...

No, you're not dreaming. Sometimes I wish I was, though.
I had wanted to turn this in to a podcast. I got my microphone out of storage and everything. Unfortunately, the way things are right now, that's not possible, and won't be for a while.
I've been in Nevada about a month and a half now. Things are very difficult out here. Climate-wise, it's not too...
2017-08-20 06:46:55 +0000 UTC View PostI found this kicking around my harddrive. It's from the big "How Do We Fix Sonic?" video, where I took two different takes and... well, you'll see. Or hear.

If this podcast were a sitcom, this would be a "very special episode." Goodbye, Colorado.
After a downer and some sniffles, I nail down exactly what my production schedule will be, including my entire Youtube upload schedule for the next two months.
Well, this ended up winning the stream poll. You can either watch it in the Youtube embed up there, or you can watch it on Twitch.tv here. If you watch it on Twitch, you can even have your chat show up on the stream. I'...

On tonight's show: wrestling with impostor syndrome, the one time Nintendo wrote me back, the one time Sega wrote me back and I was almost famous because of it, the end of Archie's Sonic comics, and Rage. No, not that.
So I wanted to stream this weekend but I was too tired and lazy for a lot of things. But, should I find the enthusiasm to stream, is there anything anyone would want to see?
You also don't have to answer just one thing. Pick as many things as you want! It'll all work out in the end! Probably...

If you listened to this month's podcast, you know I had words about Parappa the Rapper. So, I decided to stream it. All told it was a roughly four-hour stream; above is the hour I spent on Parappa the Rapper. I played three other games, and here's two:
In this podcast: I finish talking about Zelda (maybe?) and ramble on about my old Radeon graphics card versus my new nVidia card. But let's be honest, the real star of the show is the last 25 minutes where all I do is complain about a Parappa the Rapper game I haven't played yet.
And hey! Fo...
2017-04-07 01:20:34 +0000 UTC View PostI've gone through and given the ol' Patreon a new coat of spit polish. Simplified the big description, and went through tagging most of the posts so now some things should be easier to find.

It's time to catch up with what I've been doing this month and what's to come in the months ahead. But then, that's every one of these podcasts, isn't it? There's more talk about the potential move coming up and how that could effect my future output, and a good talk about what I think makes Zelda: ...
2017-03-09 14:24:26 +0000 UTC View PostThis morning was my "podcast or bust" deadline but a lot of factors have been getting in the way of delaying when I record this thing. In particular today, four or five hours disappeared in to playing Breath of the Wild as I slowly began to feel like I was coming down with a cold.
So rather than g...

I'm trying to get in to the habit of posting about my live streams more here on Patreon as I get more regular about them, but, uh, I'm still forgetting to do this, obviously. Anyway! I streamed the first five and a half hours of Breath of the Wild for Wii U, and here's part 1 of that archive. <...

Things begin on sort of a dower note but it's hard to be down for long when you're blowing up on Youtube.
Well, I'd say I wanted this video up earlier today, but technically I wanted this up three weeks ago. Regardless, you guys get to see this video a few hours early before it goes public.
The usual catch up stuff is in order -- I talk about the upcoming NiGHTS video, the new Sonic Adventure video, and the early goings in what will be the final version of OverBite. Then it's a quick stop off to talk about dashed Christmas plans and a half-hearted attempt at GOTY discussion.
It's only been three weeks since the last podcast, and hoo boy, so much happened. And so much is about to happen.
- Intro: "MachineHead" from Redline
- Outro: "Redline Day" from Redline

As an alternate title: it's the OverBite cast! All I really do is talk about the new game I've released, OverBite, and what a confusing, stressful time it was getting it submitted to Clickteam's "Weirder Stuff" game jam.
And here’s the final Dare to Scare. It’s uncut for all, partially because I didn’t have time to sit around and edit it, but also because it’s a special Halloween treat! It covers two games, and why Slenderman can be scary, but isn’t necessarily scary on his own.
Because I didn’t h...
I either have roughly three hours to make some levels, or I have 26 hours. Either way, it took me way too long to get to this point. BUT I WON'T GIVE UP
This is a little later than I'd like because I'm juggling this, SAGE, and developing a game. Regardless, here it is, for your viewing pleasure. A game that might actually scare me.
Judging by early Youtube analytics, nobody actually wants to watch this!
It's easy to write Five Nights at Freddy's off for being nothing more than a bunch of cheap jump scares, but I think that undermines what's really going on in this game. There is a legitimate sense of tension here, and though I don't cover it in this particular series, the creator (Scott Cawthon) lo...

Minor technical problems won't get in the way of talking about local vampire legends or literally jumping at your own shadow.
I've seen and heard a lot about Silent Hill 2 over the years and honestly the games never really hooked me or spooked me. I've even watched multiple Let's Plays of Sil...

Halloween is upon us! Get the latest updates on upcoming "Dare to Scare" episodes, hear more about creepy clowns (and lizardmen), and get early impressions of Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice. Also: Dracula's Back. Or is it "Overbite"?
