#DesignDiary Day 779! Got a lot of work to do tomorrow, on many different things. I plan to start on my Rouge review, but that'll be nestled in between a bunch of other things, including a lot of writing. I'm writing so much stuff at the moment. It never ends - reviews, summaries, speeches, etc.

The year is 1691. Dracula rises once more. His most formidable force? An army of balding Romanian men.

#DesignDiary Day 778! In Blender, Figma and DnD Beyond, figuring out some stuff. Getting ready to do a stream tomorrow, and trying to do something 3D based on Castlevania.

The year is 1691. Dracula rises once more. I don't want my mummy, and certainly not two of them.

#DesignDiary Day 777! Working on a bunch of stuff. I'm looking at my massive backlog and trying to figure out how to balance everything so that I can get through 800+ games at a decent clip, without sacrificing time on everything else. There's a script I need to finish which should free up time.

The year is 1691. Dracula rises once more. The queen of the Medusa faces me. I'm not worried: her spawn are far greater threats than she could ever be.

#DesignDiary Day 776! Started my Castlevania playthrough after more than a year of anticipation on my end - I watched the Netflix shows a year ago ready to imminently begin working through them, only for Ring Racers to take much longer than I had expected.

It's here now though!

The year is 1691. Dracula rises once more. I only get to fight him if I can beat a giant bat, and that's a bigger ask than it sounds.

#DesignDiary Day 775! After several hours of troubleshooting, I've got Castlevania up and running, so the playthrough of that should hopefully start tomorrow. In the meantime, my stream was delayed because SRB2 refused to run.

#DesignDiary Day 774! Last video ended up doing very well! I'm currently trying to get Castlevania working (not having much luck), and I plan to stream tomorrow.

SRB2 2.3 is hotly anticipated, yet I've seen very little traction for a recent blog post that discussed what's coming. I've taken the time to be Sonic Team Junior's hype man, analysing what was said and shown and giving a (potential, unconfirmed) release date.

#DesignDiary Day 769! Video will come out tomorrow, once I've been able to put together a quick release graphic for it.

#DesignDiary Day 768! Video is hopefully in a state to come out... tomorrow? I've got a busy day, but if I can find the time and my YouTube downloaders cooperate, I should be able to give it the finishing touches.

#DesignDiary Day 767! Next video is almost done.

#DesignDiary Day 766! Around ten minutes edited for the next video, which is looking to turn out at around 16 minutes. I'm writing up three scripts simultaneously though, which, when considered with all the rest of my work, is slowing me down quite significantly.

#DesignDiary Day 765! Sonic Time Twisted has been completed in spectacularly gorey fashion, and we next move onto Castlevania!

I told you all there'd be an eighth episode.

#DesignDiary Day 764! Sonic Time Twisted will finish tomorrow, I'm sure of it. I've got everything together for the True Ending, I just need to reach it.

#DesignDiary Day 763! Didn't get as much done as I wanted, but I've begun work on the next video. I'd best guess a Monday or Tuesday release.

#DesignDiary Day 762! Tomorrow's going to be a busy day. I plan to stream, upload the Time Twisted finale and finish the script for my next SRB2 video. Hopefully, that's out soon enough.

#DesignDiary Day 761! Still scripting. I haven't found a way to do what I had planned to with my playthrough, so I'll likely record a new episode tomorrow and finish Sonic Time Twisted, then give it a few days to preapre for Castlevania.

#DesignDiary Day 760! Progress made on some scripts, and I think the topic will be interesting for a lot of people.

#DesignDiary Day 759! Things are moving along, but nothing in particular stands out to report.

#DesignDiary Day 758! Next episode of the playthrough is going to be a little delayed as I work out some mechanics, but I've had an idea for a video in the meantime, which I think will do rather well.

#DesignDiary Day 757! Making good headway on the aforementioned motion graphics. Downloaded and played a little of my next SRB2 target. Cleaned up my hard drive. Started scripting for another new video.

I may have *technically* completed Sonic Time Twisted today, but I didn't get a particularly conclusive ending. Watch this space: I promised you eight episodes, and I'm giving you eight episodes.

#DesignDiary Day 756! Making plans for some motion graphics, which will need to be delivered *very* quickly; i.e. tomorrow. It's more than possible!

In today's episode of Sonic Time Twisted, I took on Tidal Tubes Zone! After the last few episodes left me battered and bruised, I'm glad to get back to a sense of competency.

#DesignDiary Day 755! Like I said, two videos released today (sort of). I'm glad I found time to watch the State Of Play, because it was A+, minimum. Good timing to hype everyone up for Castlevania right before I begin diving into the Classic Collection...

In today's episode of Sonic Time Twisted, I took on Drifting Dynamo Zone! The plot has taken an intriguing turn, and I'm curious to see where it goes next...
