Another big announcement from this weekend! Pizza Game, a visual novel my sister and I have been working on for four years, just officially released on steam for just $9.99!
Pizza Game is a comedic/shitpost Visual Novel where you play as the ever-poor, ever-useless Kiane on her quest to get literally anybody in the town of Floordaddle to kiss her! The game is stylistically bad. Everything is misspelled, characters will randomly speak with the wrong voices, the...

Hello! Been awhile since one of these polls, hasn't it?
So, as you may or may not have heard, I'm currently directing a series called "Epithet: Erased", which I will be working on until the end of the year! There won't be any more So This is Basically videos in that time... and honestly? The best case scenario for me is that Epithet takes off, people like it, and I can phase StiB out entirely and make Epithet my new ...

Here's a compilation of fun stuff from the last few StiB videos! Includes (in order)...
- Extra lines and cut jokes from StiB Sonic!
- Outtakes from the recording booth during StiB Sonic
- A longer, alternative intro to StiB Animal Crossing that honestly I kind of wish we'd used!
Each gag is separated by a bleep, and different sections are separated by double-beeps.
Hope you like it!

It's our newest StiB Video, uploaded to Patreon a week late! Woo!
I had a (very) long and busy weekend at San Japan, so I haven't had time to update Patreon until now. Sorry about that, and thanks to everyone who came out to see us!
We also get to soft-announce our new series, Epithet: Erased, coming in October! I am working on that nonstop until I die! Haha! Shit!
Hope you guys liked this one! It'll be the last StiB for awhile because I'm going to be working on

Hey!
For those who don't know, this Summer I'm working as the Creative Director on an upcoming web show codenamed Sugar Cookie Jazz. The real title (along with most official information about the show) will be revealed at the end of the month during my panel at San Japan in San Antonio, TX! I'll be previewing as much as I can beforehand.
Here's a little audio preview for the main character of the first story arc, Molly!
Molly is a 12-year-old girl w...

Hey all!
You may or may not have heard that I'm currently working as the creative director on an upcoming show that will be releasing this Fall code-named "Sugar Cookie Jazz"! (Real title to be revealed at San Japan on the 30th).
Here are some of the painted backgrounds we commissioned for the show! The first four episodes take place inside a museum after dark. Normal museums are pitch black at night aside from some safety lights and exit signs, but that's boring so we de...

Hi!
I've been pretty quiet on here lately, and there's a reason for that! I've got a couple announcements, but first I just wanted to welcome and thank all of our new Patrons! We recently got a HUGE influx of patronage from the Price is Right and RWBY videos, and we've more than doubled our patronage in the last two months? I'm not sure what the trigger for that is, but I'll try not to disappoint anyone! Thank you very much!
Okay, so, small announcements first!

A little late, but attached at the bottom of this post are all the Storyboards for So This is Basically RWBY!
I've also got a few behind-the-scenes things for you guys!
First up is a collection of some interactions between myself and Siv, the video's artist. Whenever we work on a video together we open up a new discord channel, work in it for two months, and then nuke it when we're done. This time I grabbed some of my favorite exchanges before we destroyed the chat.

We just finished So This is Basically RWBY, and this video had an unusually high amount of extras and outtakes at the end! Probably because RWBY is really easy to make fun of.
The first half is outtakes/flubs, and the second half is lines that we ended up cutting at some point in the development process! A lot of the outtakes are just me bursting out laughing because honestly I thought this scri...

This video is stupid and it's also my favorite thing I've made in a very long time.
There are over two hours of unused content from this video! So much that it doesn't fit in one post! Do you want to know how much it costs to buy a horse? A vacant lot in Las Vegas? An entire TOWN outside of Las Vegas? How much it costs to bribe Senator Ted Cruz? Find out!

After a long wait, So This is Basically is back with an episode on Animal Crossing! I really like how this one turned out, it feels like one of the original StiBs I made in a conga line over that first summer. Maybe it's because there are no extended bits with other VAs? I like working with other voices but I think adding the sketches mucks up the video's pacing and it has a different energy when it's just narration.
What do you guys think?

Here's some bloopers and bits that didn't make it into the final video! I really wanted to include that Tom Nook thing at the end somewhere, but it was just too long to justify doing it.

Hey all! I know things have been kind of quiet lately on the Patreon front, so to thank all you wonderful backers I'd like to share the storyboards for the upcoming StiB Animal Crossing a little early!
Normally wait after the video itself comes out to post these, but I'm such a big fan of Luke's boarding that I wanted to share it with you!
The first two boards is yours truly. The rest (aka "the good ones") are all by Luke!

Very illegal! Do "not" hit PLAY when you hear "Pokeball!"
Depending on how fast your internet is, you might need to hit it just BEFORE "Pokeball." The symbol crashes after "made you cry" should sync up to Mewtwo and Mew smacking against each other. Use that to check if you synced up or not.

I'm seeing a ton of people saying they "need to replay all the KH games before 3 otherwise they won't understand it" and "Kingdom Hearts has a really intricate story line." And that bugs me! Because it very much does not!

Here are my unfiltered thoughts on the Animal Crossing series! It's... surprisingly negative? I talk a lot about the game design itself and hypothetical changes I'd make to streamline it!

Hello, all! On this, our final episode of Tip of the Tongue, Will and Jello talk about what it means to end your project. To say “this isn’t working”, to put it on the back burner, to sit down with your team and hammer out your productions problems, and how to move forward from that point. And also how to take the good bits of your old project and reuse them in new ones!

HOLIDAY!!!!
I wasn't planning on doing any more of these videos after the Pokemon one got MURDERED by ShoPro, but what the heck! It's Christmas!!! So I decided to review all of the Rankin-Bass stop motion Christmas classics, as well as the not-so-classics like Nestor, The Long-Eared Donkey and The Leprechauns' Christmas Gold!
I also reviewed some random sequels and extras including Nightmare Before Christmas because if I DIDN'T include it I'm sure somebo...

Here's my unfiltered, 2am on Christmas Morning thoughts on all the Rankin-Bass stop motion Christmas Specials! (And movies that aren't Christmas-themed. And many movies that aren't Rankin-Bass! What is this marathon?)
As per usual this is off-the-cuff and explicit. Also... spoilers? Does anyone care about Rankin-Bass movie spoilers? We all know Rudolph guides the sleigh, right?
I actually missed one or two Rankin-Bass holiday specials...
