June Newsletter

June Newsletter

Hi everyone! This is your June newsletter, written by the one and only Octy. Can we take a minute to appreciate the consistency of uploading not one, but TWO newsletters on time? Admittedly, last month, I only got 2 (technically 3) of the 4 planned videos out. But considering I made it through that Pyramid puzzle game baubles with a shred of my sanity intact, it’s a bloody miracle.

Before we flip the calendar, I want to say thank you to all the n...

Patreon only playthrough of a crappy game

I'm currently finishing up a video about Crow City of Angels, released on PS1, Saturn and PC. As you may be aware, it's bloody awful. 

In any case, I'm running very behind on video production due to unforseen mental baubles, so here is the live recording of me capturing footage for the video. I wasn't having a nice time.

Hope you are having a nice time and do not eat too much ice cream x

The WORST puzzle game ever I swear oh my god I refuse to play this ever again

Hello all,

Not doing well mentally so this was meant to be here for you yesterday. But then a mental breakdown happened. But in any case, it's here now for your viewing pleasure <3

I can 100% recommend this game if you like your lewds with a touch of UTTER RAGING BAUBLEY BULLCRAP

Some more awful "adult" Famicom games

Hallo!

Here I am, late publishing a video to general public, far too scared to do so, and just putting it live to you lot instead.

I ended up splitting this one into two videos - I wanted to give the worst puzzle game I've ever played a dedicated video. That will be out this time next week. In the meantime, feast your eyes on the joys of Honey Peach, Bingo 75 and Papillon Gals.

You lot are awesome.

May Newsletter

Hi everyone! This is your May newsletter as written by me, Octy, with the occasional contribution from a rat or two as they scamper over the keyboard. Ok, I’m under no illusion that it’s been 20 entire months since any sort of regular monthly update. I am really sorry. My mental health took a kicking and the very idea of writing all my thoughts and plans down for everyone to read was really not appealing.

But that’s about to change! I’ve got a brand new PA on b...

New video - Bubble Bath Babes (NES)

Haaaalllo.

This video was meant to go to general public today, but ended up taking longer than expected and now I'm too anxious to release it to all viewers so I thought I would at least post it on here.

Please be warned; 8-bit female nipples. So so offensive. Can hardly manage is so offensive /s

Also, I have convinced one of my old dear friends who now does PA and PR gubbins for YouTuber people to help me out with this channel. We are still in the process of sorting everyth...

Trying to consistently post on my website

HALLO

So, I'm trying to make a post every Thursday on my website regarding some utterly crap, restrictively rare game that I thus dearly want. I've already got a good few posts scheduled, but I thought I would ask you guys if there are any games that would fit the bill?

You are probably already aware that my favorite types of games are the ones that are:

1. utterly awful (especially storyline-wise)

2. have utterly awful cover art

3. all of the above

Thank y...

Early Access Reviieewww

Hallo

I finished and uploaded this one a bit early, it's due out on Sunday eve. So thought I'd give you guys access if you wanted it. Not even an utterly AWFUL game, it's just a bit crap. But I did end up wandering down the old research rabbit hole on a few points.

As always, you are amazing and you are beautiful and cute and deserve nice things.

The Archers But With Rats perform Cinderella

This is my favourite one so far. SO MAGICAL. 

Early Access - this 90s magazine about Dinosaurs

DISCLAIMER: This video is mostly just me cackling at drawings of dinosaurs

Patreon only quickplay

Haaaaallo

I was going to do a full video of this but I don't know if I will now. But if you want to listen to me getting angry at a mediocre game, it's your lucky day!

Patreon only edit of I Want My Mommy

Bizzare name for a game, but turned out to be quite interesting to research into it. In a very, very nerdy way.

The Archers but with Rats perform Moby Dick

Just in case you missed it (and wanted to see it) when it was on stream. I know these videos are daft, but I have a lot of fun doing them and they are a nice break from playing crap games

Flapsharks Wallpaper

Hallo

I don't know who needs it, but I made a desktop wallpaper of Flapsharks. I'll be honest, I have it set as my desktop wallpaper and every time I see it I just start snort-laughing. Laughing at my own joke FTW

(AMNAMNAMANM, AJEBU, AAA)

Let's Play The Mystery of the Missing Hotpot Recipe

First draft of splicing this stream together to make it watchable. Honestly it's just 30 minutes of me swearing in a progressively more northern accent.

Where's Waldo patreon only review

haaaallllo my friends

haaaaaaaallllo

might be a couple of sound issues to fix and it's missing a fair bit of stuff that will be added but hope it makes you giggle

love you bastards x

Pride and Prejudice as performed by rats

This will probably make little sense to those of you lovely people who don't watch my streams, but...erm, this is just some general insanity I've come up with and really enjoyed doing. Only for Patreons for now

Faithful to the book, honest!

I can't believe it's taken me this long to feel strong enough to do a vlog

haaaalllo.

Patreon only draft - Color a Dinosaur

Hallo

Haaaalllo

PATREON ONLY DRAFT - DAIKTANA

Hallo!

Here is the Patreon only draft of my next video. This means it will  be a bit rough and ready and not including jokes which I might add later. Stuff will be removed too. I tend to come  back to this after submitting the drafts and think of loads more stuff.

I hope you had a wonderful new year. You lot are my lifeblood. It's been delightful to see so many of you wander over to my Twitch channel of late.

Dalmations 2 - Patreon only version

HALLO.

This is like half an hour long, so it will probably be cut down a tad. I guess I just really had a lot to say about this godawful game, this absolute scourge on humanity.

I hope you enjoy it in any case! Although I understand if you never, ever want me to review another Dingo Pictures game ever again.

Patreon only video - my "collection"

SO SO SMOL VID OF MY ITEMS.

CAN HARDLY SEE.

Yeah essentially just looking at what I've got. Thought it would be nice if anything I've got sparked memories for you, or if there's anything you especially want to see a video on.

I hope you are having a good week so far! <3

Patreon only version - The Unholy War

Hallo, you gorgeous lot.

Here is the pre-release draft of my next video. It does not have all the backing music or the transitions I'm intending, but I find that going away for a couple days then coming back to something helps me really iron out flaws in a video. The credits reel isn't in this one, but WILL be in the final version. I have no idea why, but when I try to import the list of credits of you lot into the video editor, it crashes consistently. So I just got mardy and thought w...

The Archers but with Rats s2

Hallo again everyone <3

Here is series two of the hit series The Archers but with Rats, for Patreons only. Just a bit of daft fun to hopefully bright up your day.

Sarah :)

Another update from Professor Flapjacks

Hello. I am once again writing to you as an anxiety management tool for Octavius. Also, I will nom you.

Octavius had a call this morning with a PA agency because it really is obvious they can't organise themselves. So hopefully things will start getting a bit less useless around here. Unfortunately, the PA won't be managing my personal affairs, which is an issue because I have a lot ...

First ten episodes of The Archers but with Rats

Quick one from your favourite box of frogs...

I made these as thank you to my incredible supporters on Twitch that made my birthday so special, and I've put together all nine episodes I played on Twitch with two extras for you wonderful Patrons to see early!

Starring my rattos, past and present. Such great actors. With tiny, smol hands.

Not really my usual Octavius content, but I just wanted to do something that would make you laugh. Kind of a daft present from me to you lot...

Quick update from Professor Flapjacks

Good afternoon to you all. Octavius is using me to write this as a method of disconnection, thus relieving the anxiety caused by writing to you. Also, I will bite you. Smol.

This is mostly a "Sarah is still here and trying to do stuff" kind of update more than anything. They have been really struggling with their brain for the last three months, as I expect most people have, due to lockdown. In...

It is my birthday, so I need to get all gushy again.

I have had more than half a bottle of prosecco. Also here is a photo of Professor Flapjacks with a little crown on.

It's always very hard to express what it means to me to be where I am now. So I'll try to wax lyrical a moment.

Since I was little, I wanted to entertain. I didn't really care if it was through acting, music, or artwork - I just wanted to do it. When I left college, I was full of a million ideas. Then I met and fell in "love" with the wrong person, and lost all my dr...

Retrospective - Lara Croft's Manor

Hello you utterly beautiful bastards.

Here is a video! There are more coming. I'm working on three at the moment. I'm finding having variety is helping with the anxiety a fair bit. 

Once again, I am so sorry about the hiatus. The past couple of months have been...odd. Odd for us all, I imagine. 

As before, I am still mostly active on Twitch - however I'm going to dial it back a bit and only stream on Monday and Fridays as I'm burning out a bit in that regard. ...

Ey up

Ey up you lot.

Just a super-quick update, because I am pretty excited that I've actually just finished writing and recording the voice-over for three videos.

I can't put my finger on exactly what has been wrong with me for the last two months, but there's been no videos and that has to change. As I said in the previous post on here, I'm trying to make it easier for myself by only doing videos about subjects that I'm excited about. Which, as you know, is mostly shitty games. There'...
