Mid video update and Q&A - Oh God I'm Late Edition (December)
Added 2023-01-03 19:10:31 +0000 UTCIt's a new year, and that means... an extremely late video update, oh lord. I talked about it on Twitter but for those who do not use that platform (smart choice), these last few weeks have been horrendous for my mental health. I've had the worst depression I've experienced in a long time and have only not been bedridden because I'm with people who have me get up every day and do at least something. On the brighter side, this is finally letting up and I'm feeling okay, so I'm slowly getting back into work.
I can at least say however, that financial depression is a significantly smaller part of my life now -- my last payout after fees was $730, which is genuinely enough to live on as long as I budget carefully this month!!! And it's just getting better which means living is getting more stable for me, and I can hopefully stop needing to take music jobs at some point this year, unless I need the extra income for something.
However, since I have a lot of music work to do through March to fund being able to see my significant other this year, I will likely be making shorter videos following this one on Gore Screaming Show so I don't run myself dry. I'm thinking probably more things Yami no Koe length, and then once I'm finished with music work, it'll be back to longer stuff. Hopefully!
Okay update time:
Gore Screaming Show: Gameplay done, working on script now. Seems to be easier than I thought it'd be to write, so maybe I won't be grossly off time.
Rance & AliceSoft: Same as before, working through 5D while also doing a playthrough of Kichikuou with my boyfriend.
The 3DO Video: WE HAVE HIT ENOUGH MONEY FOR THE 3DO DRIVE EMULATOR. IT IS TRASH TIME. My current plan is to get a small game music job done that will pay for the cost of the thing, and then have the video likely in March.
Other things: A few games I have in mind for the future, besides the smaller titles previously mentioned such as RPG Maker games, are some intriguing but not totally dense stuff. Popotan (origin of Carameldansen) and Toushin Toshi (first truly great AliceSoft game in my mind) are key games that come to mind.
That is all for this time - once again, I'm sorry this one is late. I've been trying my best to work but I've genuinely not been able to muster up the energy for anything but playing tiny bits of games and lazing around all day... but I'm back at it again. Life's tough but I'm tougher, or something.
See y'all soon. (´• ω •`)

Was riding the depression / burnout train hard at the end of last month. Glad to hear that you're on the up and up!
