Let's Play Echo Parts 93-95 (Patreon Early Access)
Stephanie was suddenly available for a shorter BUT EQUALLY VALID Echo session, so here's another update a bit sooner than expected.

2023-06-23 16:51:42 +0000 UTC View PostA well was scary so I checked out some crop circles.
2023-06-22 16:29:50 +0000 UTC View Post"haha I'll just pop in and knock out a DLC tonight in one session, it's just a DLC, right? ...right?
Oh boy, Patreon chose a long one this time. It's a good thing the early access tier is doing well if I'm hemorrhaging nominators lol
2023-06-21 20:24:50 +0000 UTC View PostFinale! Finally!
Sorry this one took a bit. I've just been juggling projects and this one especially seemed like a hassle to finish, so I kept doing everything else. But that also backfires because it means it's harder to remember exactly what happened and what needs to be edited out for pacing without screwing up the important bits. Like apparently I edited vital information out of Firmament but didn't really hear about it until like, a week after it aired publicly?...
2023-06-19 19:43:47 +0000 UTC View PostDetective game based on the legendary furry noir comic series!
Toaster was gonna play it, and it's been on my to-do list for ages, so I hopped in. Where will this fit in my schedule? No idea! Maybe in the puzzle/indie slot, but after a puzzle game, or something. IDK, it might be a backlogged Patreon exclusive for a long time.
Fear & Hunger finale tomorrow, I think!

A reminder: these happen whenever Stephanie's available, so it could be once a week, or once a month.

FIVE HOURS in which I try to climb a mountain and things get impressively off course.

FEAR & HUNGER:
I've made progress on editing, through to the finale! I've done my initial editing pass, and now I need to go back and check for stuff to censor etc. Sorry, I see in my stats now that this was the most viewed Early Access series so I should have gotten it done sooner. It's ju...

[shitty mockup I drew with a mouse]
I've got a furry shirt idea I'm working on, got an artist lined up, etc. The question is, would you prefer Marrow merch, or a more general furry design? Like an animal that we vote on or something.
I figure I'm overdue to relaunch my defunct store, and the next essay would be a time that makes sense to do so.
2023-06-14 23:55:57 +0000 UTC View PostBig session! FIVE HOURS! I think this video might be like half of the game.
2023-06-14 20:14:14 +0000 UTC View Post[above art was a cool surprise today from @crimsonann (18+)]
Sorry! I said there'd be more Hi-Fi Rush by now, and it's been a bit since the last Fear & Hunger update. For Fear & Hunger there's a bit of inertia to overcome because the next recording session has broken audio and I need to combine my recordings with Toaster's in order to fix it, THEN do the big editing pass for pacing because of how repetitive the game gets with all of the dying, THEN do the big...
2023-06-12 20:13:36 +0000 UTC View PostIDK, we might not release this one publicly, or it might need an editing pass to remove some of the conversations first, or something.
We found the writing style and sense of humor pretty grating, and were increasingly bewildered by the behavior of characters that we were told are college students. A mix of anime lolrandom SHOUTING and infantilization that we were just NOT ready for.
We played it because it was recommended by a bunch of people. I'm plenty used ...

2023-06-07 21:19:04 +0000 UTC View PostSo.... I fucked up and put a non-indie game in the indie game poll, and no one called me out on it, and it won, so~~~
Here we go I guess lmao

2023-06-06 19:12:40 +0000 UTC View PostIt's time to bring back the indie slot! Well, Adastra and Echo were indie, but now visual novels are their own time slot, separate from the indie/puzzle slot. Firmament was a puzzle game, so now it's time to play an indie game that isn't a puzzle/adventure game and isn't a visual novel, a thing that's hard to define when going in blind lol
So I took suggestions in a post available to $15 patrons, filtered out the ones that didn't fit, added a couple of my own and her...
2023-06-03 21:30:09 +0000 UTC View PostSIX HOURS! I'm back to Fallout after about a month off and things are abruptly ramping up! We're actually in Vegas, for starters lol
We've reached proper Patreon synergy, where the game nominated by Patreon, and voted on Patreon, is also properly in Patreon Early Access. It's taken some workflow changes, but I'm getting the hang of it.

Let's Play Fallout: New Vegas
Parts 43-48 - 2023-06-01 20:31:12 +0000 UTC View Post
These posts will probably get a LITTLE less spammy over time, since I wouldn't normally have a new recording session to share every single day. 2-4 a week seems more normal? But at the moment I have a lot of juggled projects between Arches, Echo (two different collaborators), and Fear and Hunger, so I've got a bit of a backlog I'm trying to clear.
Neglected Fallout New Vegas a bit, whoops. That's probably next! Might save up for a big double-session post since I play...
2023-05-31 19:44:45 +0000 UTC View Post
So we now have a dedicated visual novel slot due to their continued popularity. Having spent all this time covering Adastra, Echo, and its sequel Arches, the future has been pretty certain for this timeslot. But now that we've finished Arches, we're a bit rudderless at the moment (aside from 'Flynn, when it's ready').
So let's do a vote! Haven't had one of those for a bit, s...
2023-05-31 01:43:37 +0000 UTC View PostNow with much more penis! Toaster what have you done!?
(do let me know if I've missed any of the detailed ones, though. That's the line, I'm drawing, I guess??? Yes, YouTube is confusing and inconsistent in its messaging about this stuff)
2023-05-30 20:02:50 +0000 UTC View PostArches begins premiering to the public tomorrow, but in the meantime we're slowly working on Flynn's route for the final "season" of Echo!
This is our first four hour session, which features the side stories PARTY // TRIP // METAPHOR, followed by the first two hours of Flynn's route.
This is all that we've done so far, so honestly I might need to run another game after Arches to buy more time before Flynn is finally ready to air. Stephanie's availability is jus...
2023-05-29 20:52:17 +0000 UTC View PostThe final story update of the game Arches is now public, so I can give ya'll the final story update of our playthrough!
If I knew it would happen today I would have delayed yesterday's post lol
You can now watch the entire series before even the first episode becomes public!
Stay tuned for early episodes of the Flynn route of Echo over in the $5 tier. Just be warned that they may be agonizingly spaced out. There's a reason I try to save them up and releas...
2023-05-28 23:29:08 +0000 UTC View PostLOGISTICS!
The TJ Route season of Echo is wrapping up soon, so it's time to schedule Arches. But unlike recent Patreon posts, instead of giving you guys separate compilation videos I just gave you the early access to the specific videos that are meant to be scheduled for release to the public.
Because YouTube is restrictive about this stuff, when I schedule those videos they will become "private," which means the links to them won't work anymore. To fix this, I...

2023-05-26 22:28:33 +0000 UTC View PostToaster and I have played through the latest indie darling that's very NSFW and generally upsetting, but if you're up for that, here we gooooooo~! It's a survival horror? JRPG? Berserk-inspired... thing? where you die so often it feels like a roguelike.
We somehow already have incredible fan art by @crimsonann (also NSFW) before the series even premiered, which I've been cackling at. Of course we have to use it. Toaster loves it too and is already redesigning his fut...

2023-05-19 18:57:15 +0000 UTC View PostI've been needing a new intermediate tier on this Patreon for a while now, with $1 being an exceedingly low floor, and $15 being a pretty huge leap to the next tier. It's not a very healthy pledge balance to have, and with my YouTube wage trending downward for the last year as Let's Plays grow out of fashion it's been overdue for a revamp.
The issue has been the question of what I can provide without stretching myself even thinner, as I didn't want to take voting awa...

As you may have caught from various updates I've posted, Toaster and I moved to record Arches, the standalone sequel to Echo. This was because I'm making a move to have a more permanent Visual Novel slot on the schedule because they're clearly so popular, and I unfo...
2023-05-02 21:34:33 +0000 UTC View PostWow, it's been TWO YEARS since I uploaded one of these? Not sure how that happened. Anyway, these are basically leftover scraps from streams: incidental conversations that happen while we're setting up a game or winding down after it. Sometimes the result is a funny conversation or a little podcast discussion that I realize some people may enjoy, but doesn't really fit anywhere in the video I'm editing. Even with out tendency towards tangents it's weird to open a video wit...
