Quick Production Update

It has now been two weeks since the last video and I'm sorry to say there will not be a video this week. I never promised fortnightly reviews but it's still the goal. I spent most of last week trying to get a new review series off the ground and by the end of the week it just wasn't ready for shooti...

NES Review Bucket List

The following is a list of NES games that I have, will, will maybe, and will not review. The idea being that one day I may actually be finished with the system which is kind of exciting. The "Maybe" pile are games that I really just put more time into. Let me know what you think in the comments, I'm...

[SSFF] Cave Noire (カーブノア) (GB) Review by Derek Alexander

Quick video update! The new review will be on the very little-known gameboy game Cave Noire. I only found out about this game a few months ago! I've been on/off writing the script ever since I discovered it but it's been an incredible challenge to get "right". I was working on my 5th or 6th draft wh...

[SSFF] Shatterhand Teaser

So we tried to make an incredibly ambitious script in 6 days, and even though we worked through the weekend and stayed up until 7am last night we just couldn't get it out the door. We decided that in order the get this video to where it needs to be, we have to put it down for now and come back to it...

Finished up a shoot with Derek last night. Looking fresh as hell for the camera

Hello VIP Patron's I'm going on vacation! Some friends of mine rent a vacation house in the summer every year and now that I am a fellow Seattleite, I've been invited to come along (Grace unfortunately isn't available). I'll be leaving thursday the 4th, coming back sunday the 7th. SO THIS MEANS WE'R...

[SSFF] Monster Party (NES) Review by Derek Alexander

NEW VIDEO - Monster Party (NES) is one of the weirdest games I've ever played and I loved it!

[SSFF] Monster Party (NES) Review by Derek Alexander

The Monster Party review is up exclusively for VIP Backers! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6A0mPkx3KM This will go live for everyone else tomorrow morning but you all get to see it first! I'm actually reexport to...

More special stuff for my VIP backers! Here's a collection of songs I made for the SSFF bumper. The animation was done by the incredible Clockwork Pixel ( http://bit.ly/ClockworkPixel ) but I took upon myself to make the music. I...

Monster Party Behind the Scenes: very successful shoot! We shot 13 live dialog scenes in under 90 minutes with less than 1 hour setup. Script writing may still be a slow process but this was easily the fastest and smoothest shoot we've ever had. Higher quality with faster production time is the goal...

Another quick thing; while working on Jumping Flash I had an idea for a video I don't normally do. Something like "Please Remaster These, If You're Just Going To Remaster Everything". I touched on this in the review but when I heard they were going to remaster God of War 3, the Arkham games, Gears o...

The shooting Monster Party script is 2,700 words. (For perspective: Clock Tower 2,900, EDF 2017 2,000, Castlevania 3,000, Parasite Eve 3,600.) It was a tough nut to crack because the game does have problems but we're really happy with the script, I think we did this game justice. Game footage has b...

If yall haven't heard yet, Koji Igarashi is pulling a Mighty No 9 and kickstarting his own Castlevania reboot without Konami. I actually had prior knowledge of this kickstarter a few weeks ago but had to keep quiet about it. But I took the opportunity to start a review of Symphony of the Night as th...

monster party script is coming together! the plan is to have a working script by the end of the day (production tip: scripts are never finished, they're only ready). production will start first thing on monday (i might pull some overtime this weekend). the hardest part of production has always been...

Got some behind the scenes stuff! Here's Grace's storyboard for the skit from the Jumping Flash Review.

Honest question: How interested would you all be in a review of Monster Party (NES)? I really really like that game but it's been well-reviewed already. I've got a script about half finished but I'm not sure if I should go on. Thoughts?

My inspirational poster. I endeavor to not just be "working" but to always be "Big Bear Doin' Thangs"

Damn and we're nearly half way to the next milestone!! This is for ALL my patrons, thank you so much! I really had no idea it would get this big, this fast. It's fantastic but I need to stay humble, there's a lot of work ahead of me. But it means so much to have your support! This weekend will be al...

1ST MILESTONE! Holy shit!! I hardly had enough time to hit "go" and then grab some dinner! But this means it's RIP to the Broom Poll. You may once again rest comfortably in our kitchen.

Wooo, we're live! And already about time to start shopping. Thank you so much everyone!!
