Prison of Plastic - Private Book-Editing Stream

Here's a weird one, but I figured this might be of interest to some of you top-tier Patrons.

When publishing a book, you need to do lots of copyedits, where a proofreader suggests changes to your book and you approve or veto them. I've already done this twice a few months ago, and this is (hopefully???) the final time I'll ever need to for Prison of Plastic.

I'm in a very weird position where my audiobook was recorded ages ago and a lot of audiobook services require your ...

Jello Directed a Video Game and is Streaming It!

During the last two years you may have heard me mention "Puppet Game", a project I was hired to do casting and voice direction on. This is the first video game I've done solo direction for! Usually I'm partnered with my bestie/worst enemy Lenti/Vixen.

Well, as of yesterday, it's out! We'll be playing it with some of the actors today at 3pm PST. Hopefully you can swing by! If you're not comfortable with horror stuff, don't worry, this game is pretty humorous and light. As survival horror...

One Piece Book Club - [Part 3, Skypeia]

Today at 3pm PST, Jello, Aloha, and maybe Bo (he's up in the air atm) talk about Skypeia.

Haha.

Hahaha.

I don't think we liked Skypeia very much.

If you're into us roasting stuff, this might be the one to listen in on.

NEW VIDEO - The World's Worst Lemonades

That's right, folks. It's here. After a full year of waffling of working on this thing once every two months while sick, I have completed it (also while sick, because I'm me).

JELLO: (Editing footage of me consciously sampling expired lemonade) I wonder why I get sick all the time?

This will be the final Lemonade video. There simply isn't enough lemonade left. Do you have some other, horrible thing you'd like me to sample 500 of to torture myself for the sake of charity? Let me kn...

Neo Trio Song (Early Preview + Artwork)

Hey all! Here's a (very) early preview of the next Epithet stretch goal. This song, Bubblegum Renegade, is set an an alternate universe styled after the 1950s. It's about Trixie, who in this universe is feared as the nefarious "Bubblegum Renegade", a punk who nobody wants to mess with.

One Piece Book Club - [Part 2, Baroque Works]

Hey all! Today is the second installation of the One Piece Book Club. Today Bo is out due to family business, so Aloha and I will be talking about the Baroque Works and Alabasta saga, which is exciting because I honestly might call this the strongest part of One Piece.

If you're a $5/mo patron, be sure to use THIS LINK! This is the secret video, just for you! Wow!

LIVESTREAM ANNOUNCEMENT: "Smack Jello! (For Charity)"

Over the past few years, I've hosted several "Name That Tune" charity events where Players raced against Chat to see who could recognize songs for points. Now, for the first time, Players and Chat are working together! Their opponent? ME.

We'll be going through over 1500 songs from ALL the previous streamed games. Every time someone else gets a song before I do, I have to donate money. Chat and Players can make donations to hinder me and trip me up with challenges. The ...

Jello Reviews - "Columbo" & "Poker Face"

It's a review of the classic crime series, Columbo. Oh, and one more thing! A quick review at the end of Knives Out director Rian Johnson's new series, Poker Face. This post is free for everyone! I'm unfortunately going to be swamped in writing work this month, so I figured I'd give everybody a little gift while I work on...

One Piece Book Club - [Part 1, East Blue]

NEXT ASSIGNMENT for JULY 1ST: Read Ch. 101-217

Bo, Aloha, and I have read the first 100 Chapters of long-running pirate manga One Piece. And today, we're going to talk about it, Book Club-style! Come aboard and bring along all your hopes and dreams as we talk about this series. Bo and I have consumed most of OP before, but Aloha is mostly going in blind.

Come read along with us! We're live now and will be doing the next arc (Alab...

GAME CONCEPT - "Writer's Block"

If you watch me stream with any regularity then you've probably heard me talk about some of the various concepts I have for games. The main ones I talk about are Jamboree, a Paper Mario-inspired game about ghosts, and Winds of Change, a strategy RPG that is my answer to the question "what would your ideal Fire Emblem game look like?" I get asked about the latter on stream a lot.

Because I have no formal coding/game design training and likely will neve...

Epithet Erased OP2 - "Say No" Animation Process + Art

This is a slightly-abridged flyover of the animation process for Say No, the "opening" to Epithet Erased: Prison of Plastic.

The above video contains five versions of the opening:

• The initial concept thumbnails, by me
• A rough animatic
• Another animatic with rough keyframes
• The "final" version that Powerhouse handed in
• A reworked, true "final" version produced by indie animator Ky Bullock.

I hired Powerhouse, wh...

Jello Reviews "DREDGE" (ft. Yam)

EDIT: I have since also played Dredge's two DLC's, The Pale Reach and The Iron Rig. Iron Rig is arguably worth playing if you do not install Pale Reach, it solves some of the game's economical issues. Pale Reach isn't really worth the money no matter what you do.

Audio review of indie horror fishing game, "DREDGE"! Featuring my lovely girlfriend Amy, using her lovely voice to talk about eyeball fish.

New Video - "TRAPPED (In a Bad Flash Game)"

Two videos in two weeks? Who am I and what have I done with Jello!

After finishing Dogs in Love 2, Lenti came over to hang out and I showed them some clips from my Trapped stream with Jay. They said "Man, you gotta turn this into a video", and SO I DID.

The original stream can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGz_6ZE3cuw

Old Art | College [Part 3 - Finished Projects]

Lots of stuff I did in college! This actually isn't even close to all of it, it's just the stuff I had documented. I'm sure there's a lot more of it shoved back in my childhood closet in Illinois somewhere. Luckily, I already made a digital portfolio many years ago, so a lot of this is actually organized and documented. I'll talk about the ones I have stuff to say on below:
