Hello hello x9000. I didn't have gameplay footage from Adventure Red Chapter done in time for last weekend (this episode is just over an hour and 10 minutes long because it covers the remaining chapters of The Circle 's Book 1) and so I thought I'd continue on Monday. Monday came along and we lost power. Had no power until yesterday (Wednesday), which leaves today and tomorrow to get everything ready for this weekend.  Shout out to Hacksrespairman . He fixes up and/or completes Pokemon ROM hacks that have either been abandoned, left incomplete for some reason or could use a nice clean up. I've written walkthroughs for his updates of Pokemon (Old) White , Pokemon Azure Horizons and the second region in the original version of Pokemon Light Platinum . Very recently he released updates for Pokemon Light Platinum and a fan-done (but creator approved) remake called  Pokemon Light Platinum + . There's even a DS remake project. I am really behind as far as updating the...

Hello hello and Happy Tuesday. I had some free time over the weekend to finish up Weekend Bonus Stage 15 and 16, so please look forward to them this upcoming weekend. The work load at the office has eased up a little bit and if that can continue then I hope it'll afford me more free time to get busy with the other content. None of them have been cancelled or shelved, I've just been struggling to make time for them to return to regular rotation. The ideal flow would be to have Weekend Bonus Stage coming out on the weekends and other series coming out during the week and monthly. Sounds like a full-time job, eh? Well, compared to my current "9-to-5" that's a full-time job I'd at least enjoy doing haha but I'm not there yet unfortunately. It's become less fun to be a content creator these days because there's not just bigger and more popular creators dominating the space but there's AI to deal with too and platforms with algorithms that can keep c...

Hello hello. It was a busy week AND there was some plumbing work that needed to be done at home so I didn't have much of a chance to get anything ready. Let's try again next time. Enjoy your extended weekend if you've got one, take care. 

Happy Saturday. There won't be any episodes of Weekend Bonus Stage this weekend, I didn't get enough time to record and edit during the week so let's try again for next weekend.  I am hoping to get back to working from home, because working from the "office" means I can't bring along the computer, there's no WiFi and I can't work on any content during the low traffic periods e.g. lunchtime or after packing up before closing time. Working from home has its benefits, even if there are some chores to be done first before work haha (gone are the days of having housekeepers who would stay with us, leaving on weekends and going away for holidays. Our current housekeeper pops in just twice a week). The daily DJ sets for Val's channel were possible thanks to working from home, although doing them ended up burning me out before things got super busy (as much as I enjoyed putting them together).  If there are any updates I'll be sure to let you know. Unt...

After a busy couple of weeks, hello hello. Things got busy at work just after I had taken a short break before the Easter Holidays because we were a man down due to a minor injury, at least it wasn't something major. The employee has been recovering well and should be back in action next week. As for the break, I just needed to recharge from doing the daily music sets for Val and also trying to bring back my own regular content plus keeping an eye on the newest member of the content family Weekend Bonus Stage. Once things blew up at work I just couldn't make the time to get back into preparing and putting out content, because by the time we were done for the day I just wanted supper, maybe watch an episode of something and then hit the pillow. Now that the weekend is upon us and we are not opening tomorrow, I'm hoping to prepare Weekend Bonus Stage then next week if things ease up the daily sets return and work on other content can resume. Many thanks to those of you who ha...
