I have missed a couple of days. Apologies for that. I was getting to the end of the day and just zonking out without really thinking about anything else other than getting to sleep, so I hope you coped with my absence. Anyway, I'm here now. It's still late and I still want to go to bed, but I am at least remembering to write something.
Took stock of the YouTube channel earlier, because we've reached an important milestone: there's only 8 games left to go on Atari A to Z Flashback. This might sound like an arbitrary milestone, but this image should make it clearer:
Yes, we're onto the last page of games, which means the end is literally in sight — and going out with Yars' Revenge? What a way to finish. Gonna have to plan something vaguely special for the grand finale, I feel.
In total, I've now made 465 videos just on Atari games of various descriptions, across the 8-bit, ST and all the platforms covered in Atari Flashback Classics. On top of that, there's a bunch of Evercade stuff (which I am planning to return to once the VS is all set to go with its final firmware, which should be around now since reviews are already happening!) plus Retro Select, short;Play and the longer Let's Play series I did a while back.
I do miss doing some of those long playthroughs — Project Zero and Split/Second were particular favourites — but they're just not practical, especially now I have stuff I need to play for the day job as well as stuff I want to write or make videos about for my own personal projects! Maybe when I retire or if I win the lottery or something.
As I'm typing this, Patreon has just popped up a message which claims "it looks like you might be promoting a raffle", and this is apparently a no-no. I would like to make it abundantly clear that I am not promoting a raffle, and the statement "if I win the lottery or something" is by no means any sort of promotion for a raffle. So suck it, Patreon bot.
Anyway, that's about that for now. Tomorrow we're going bed shopping, then I've got videos to make. Exciting stuff!
