Hi all! So I decided to split Hollow Bastion into 2 parts because I knew the world revisit segment would be chunky enough to be its own video. I did not however anticipate that it would be chunky enough to be TWO of its own videos. Quite literally, the script for Hollow Bastion part 1 was around...

There were a couple issues with the Hollow Bastion Video which, regrettably, I didn't catch. Ordinarily I'd let that be that and simply fix things for the YouTube release, but there were enough niggles that I felt the need to post this revision. It's essentially the same video, just with a bit mo...

I write this less than 9 hours before it goes live. This is the closest I have ever cut it in my upload turnaround, but we just made it. My favorite world in the entire KH series, I defy you not to fall in love with one of the coolest boss levels in any game.

My longest video yet, the length of a full work day PLUS a half hour for lunch, and it needs your help!
I have been slaving over this compilation these last two weeks to try and make it the best video I have ever released, ironing out audio and visual glitches, adding polish and addendums, ...

This episode felt like it was never gonna be finished. It took by far the longest to simply record all the footage I needed out of any video yet, and editing it together was its own ordeal, but here it is, my favorite of the Kingdom Hearts Disney Worlds. With no nostalgia for Peter Pan, it comes ...
2025-08-17 16:00:16 +0000 UTC View PostI’ve worked out my plan for how uploads are going to transition back into a single series now that sly 3 is more or less complete.
Currently I am working on Neverland, the script is mostly finalized, but there are some bits of footage that are going to take me some extra time to gather, I...

Here we are, at the end of the road once again.
I wanna get in front of 2 things right away. I do plan on making a video on Sly Cooper Thieves in Time eventually, but I don't know when, I think I wanna let Sly breathe for a while.
Secondly, the concurrent series model is going away...
This level absolutely shattered my expectations, this has been some of the most fun I have EVER had putting an episode together, from start to finish. The unassuming nature of the 100 Acre Wood has lead me like so many others to blaze through it on every playthrough, but it was hiding so many de...

Ladies and Gentlemen and everything else, your feature-length presentation!
I will actually be STUNNED if the final episode doesn't wind up being even longer than this, but that's just the way we roll now, I am officially one of them longform YouTubers.
As always, I apologize for th...
I write this after writing the conclusion of the Dead Men Tell No Tales Video. It kind of baffles me that after it, there will be only one more Sly 3 video. I intend to have this one up this Sunday, but it is going to be an especially long video (I can't tell at this stage but I'm guessing even l...

Getting this done in a 3 week turnaround, when I spent one of those weeks in Boston with no computer, is something I'm especially proud of. This has been the first video I could make without having to worry about another job and the pressures of that on my schedule, and it has been THOROUGHLY lib...

THIS IS THE FIRST OFFICIAL VIDEO TO BE MADE AS A FULL TIME YOUTUBER
This episode really made me stop and reflect on my journey as a creator. In a lot of ways, I felt I sort of faked it until I made it, pretending I understood narrative undercurrents and symbolism a lot better than I did. I...
I have huge news! I have officially put my two week notice in at my day job, and before the end of the month, making these videos will be my sole occupation. It's been a heck of a road getting here, but thanks almost entirely to you all, I finally feel confident in taking that crucial step. I don...

I'm anticipating this one will have to tread a copyright MINEFIELD when it hits YouTube, so enjoy what I'm almost certain will be the uncompromised version of this video!

As usual, if you'd asked me how long I thought this video would be, I would have been way off, but this time I would have been off by like 40 minutes. It's fitting in its way, that my favorite level would run away from me like this and wind up as my first feature length episode. I do think it end...

Where did February go?
An interesting phenomenon, I was sure when I started making videos full time, I would be able to produce them that much faster. However, as I've steadily weened my lifestyle onto the income you have been so generous to provide me, I have found the extra "free" time h...

Editing this video reminded me of playing through it as a kid. All the footage was an absolute maze to sort through. But I'm confident in saying this has some of the best editing I've ever done, as well as some of the coolest discoveries!
2025-02-16 17:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostHappy (belated) New Year everyone! It certainly didn’t take long for 2025 to get crazy. It feels like it’s been a while since I last posted one of these, but it turns out this has just been a VERY long month. I’ve been surprising myself with my consistency, and it’s been a while since I m...

I'm writing this less than 12 hours before this actually goes up, but let the record show, I am on schedule! This one probably ended up being the most stressful episode I've put together yet, and I can't even pin down why. I think I just really wanted to do this level justice considering how much...

I anticipate this will be the last KH episode to be over an hour until we reach the Endgame. This one was an enormous project that just kept unfolding layers, and what's really taking me by surprise is how hard some of the bosses are to create a consistent strategy for, and that's only gonna get ...
2025-01-05 17:00:11 +0000 UTC View PostThe holidays are upon us, and they promise to be crazy. I’ve gotten a good jump on the progress for the Agrabah Video, but I already have a feeling it’s gonna need an extra week to finish.

2 weeks for a 75 minute video ain't NONE too shabby if I do say so myself. Sly 3 IS certainly easier to put together than Kingdom Hearts, but I'm finding the narrative elements of it much more complex, and deeply fun to dive into. I hope you enjoy!... even ifa you don't feel like it...

This one was INSANE. As the longest video I've yet made apart from the compilations, Deep Jungle seemed to do its level best to make every step as difficult as possible. 4 bosses, one of which is probably the steepest difficulty spike in the game, far too many puppies, and a DEEP research rabbit ...

So here's the deal: The artist I'm commissioning those incredible stained glass murals I use in the KH videos needs a lot more time between videos to keep up with the amount of bosses in the game, so from now on, rather than the 3 week turnaround we've been targeting, I'm gonna aim to put out a K...

Here’s the cloud mural that wasn’t finished on time to be in the Patreon edition of the Olympus video! My artist, Icarus Arts, is knocking it out of the park every time!
Progress on the next episode is honestly funny. I’ve written a large chunk of the script so far, but most of it is...

Fret not, Cloud will have a stained glass mural, the artist I'm commissioning them from just isn't done with it yet. Other than that, I'm exceedingly proud of this one, as it represents a ton of research. Enjoy!

It made this episode extra challenging to put together, but I believe the results speak for th...
