Weekly Update: January 31, 2011

Mario Paint Composer

Didn't get a chance to play around with it over the weekend, as I was extremely busy. I will have plenty of time next week however, as I have that week off from school.

Johto Minecraft

Doesn't show what I've done of Kanto. Branching off from Viridian, I went all the way to Pewter north and all the way to Fuchsia from the south. They'll connect eventually.

Other

I went to the concert on Friday. The first opening band was okay. Not really my style of music. However, the second band caught me by surprise, as I had never heard any of their music, but I was throughly impressed.

I was an overall fun experience. Shame it's already over.

Hopefully you enjoy!

See you next Monday!

Weekly Update: January 24, 2011

I didn't forget the past two weeks. I was just on winter break.

...wait...

Mario Paint Composer

I tinkered with Mario Paint over the past two weeks. I am part of the upcoming Community OC, and I finished my part last Thursday. I'm not particularly proud of it, but I"m comparing my part with MPCers who use the original soundfont a lot more than I do.

I'm still trying to find a song to do. I should have some free time once my quarter ends.

Johto Minecraft

I FINALLY moved onto Kanto. Viridian is done, along with Route 1 and most of Pallet Town. Kanto is a little more "flatter" than Johto, mostly because Kanto has no tall trees. Oh well.

Other

I've started a Let's Play, but it's already suffered a setback. Apparently people want audio commentary instead of annotation commentary, so I need to get a mic so I can do commentary. Part 2 won't be coming out this week, but hopefully I can get it out by next week. I plan on recording a LOT over my week break, which is in the next two weeks.

Linkin Park concert this Friday. Got my tickets for it in November. I am so EXCITED. :D

I didn't forget the past two weeks. I was just on winter break.

(Yeah...that'll work...)

Mario Paint Composer

I haven't had a chance to tinker around with it over the long break; there were many other games I had gotten and devoted time to. I know, how bad of me ;-;

Other

As I stated, winter break, Christmas, and New Years over the past two weeks. One of my favorite moments every year. Went up to Bemidji and had a very fun time.

Johto Minecraft suffered a large setback with the introduction of Beta, reaulting in the reintroduction of leaf decay. Most of the western half lost all the leaves that they had, which meant a lot of rebuilding. It's complete now, so I can FINALLY move on to Kanto.

Weekly Update: December 13, 2010

Mario Paint Composer

Started on a new song in MPC over the week, not the song I intended for my 50th and final 2010 video. I think I'll make this the video I release this month.

Other

Lots of work and lots of homework this past week. I did get working on Johto Minecraft and finished it all the way to Kanto. Now I need to decide whether I do Gen I or Gen II.

Hopefully you enjoy!

See you next Monday!

This weekend was pretty busy for me.. Uploaded four videos in four days, not to mention having to work and school work. One was actually an MPC, which is linked -> here <-.

Time to get that final MPC out before Christmas.

Other

Due to all the work over the past week, I haven't had any chance to work on Johto Minecraft. Hopefully I can get to it sometime this week.

Weekly Update: November 29, 2010

Mario Paint Composer

I started tinkering with MPC over the long weekend. I started on a song and have a new song in mind once the other one is done. I hope to release two MPCs before 2010 is over. One is a video game song, the other is a TV song.

Other

Johto Minecraft is going along well. I finished Johto and am now on my way towards the Indigo Plateau. Once there, I'll probably do Mt. Silver first then heard towards Viridian.

School work this quarter is going to be a lot compared to last quarter. Not to mention I also have work to go to. Very busy these next few months.

Hopefully you enjoy!

See you next Monday!

Weekly Update: November 23, 2010

Now I'm getting mad.

Mario Paint Composer

I've started on a new song, even though it doesn't sound good so far. I also started on a new OC, but that doesn't sound like I want it either. I fear that my OCs will have to wait until I get my new desktop, since being able to use Evolution (something I cannot use anymore on my laptop) GREATLY helps the process for me.

Someone was kind enough to create a techno/trance remix of Melancholy. Be sure to check it out!

Other

School's started over again, so yay for that.

I got COD: Black Ops while I was up in Bemidji, so I've been playing that a lot. I also managed to pick up Age of Empires III for a dime the other day as well, though I haven't had the chance to play it yet.

My biggest project, however, has been recreating the world of Johto in the game Minecraft. In layman's terms, I'd say I'm about 3/5 of the way there. I still need to do Mahogany, Blackthorn, and the routes connecting them. I also plan to do Kanto.

Hopefully you enjoy!

See you next Monday! (THIS TIME I MEAN IT)
