Sneak Peek into What’s Upcoming – August 2023

blackcatwhimsy

July was a great month for the channel! I uploaded two videos and it felt amazing to get back into the swing of things. I’ve made some changes to how I record and I’ve recorded a couple more videos since then. This should speed things up so that I can get videos edited and published quicker.

I’m putting the final touches on my Castles of Burgundy Unboxing Plus video. I also have another Unboxing video recorded and I’ve started editing it. I had some audio issues with it but I am hopeful it will still work.

I have my first RPG supplement planned out as well. It will require a little more planning as it’s a PDF and I need to coordinate how I will get it recorded. I wanted to already have that recorded but the technology setup is holding it up slightly.

I have a couple of unboxing videos for Button Shy Games in the pipes and I still want to test out recording an actual board game playthrough. To round out the month I also have planned a video game playthrough. I’m not sure which game I’ll play but I have many to choose from.

Fingers crossed for a busy August!

Sneak Peek into What’s Upcoming – July 2023

My momentum in May was completely thrown out the window after my blog post about what was upcoming. We ended up in a minor car accident a couple days after posting and while everyone involved was fine, it definitely dampened my motivation. I took May and June off and am finally starting to emerge from my indifference. A shout out to Me, Myself, and Die on YouTube for getting me excited to play games again. The channel is actually geared towards solo RPG play but getting involved with solo RPG last month has definitely helped me out of a funk.

Having resolved some laptop and program issues, I am feeling positive for the upcoming month. I need to record some new audio for Under Falling Skies and want to finalize that so I can really get down to the nitty gritty with editing the video together.

On the backlog is still an unboxing and possibly playthrough of Numbsters, a playthrough of a print-and-play game, and newly added is a solo RPG playthrough. I’m very excited with RPG the past few months and want to add some videos on it to my channel.

Sneak Peek into What’s Upcoming – May 2023

Another month and another Upcoming blog post. This time I’m not sure what will be published this month. I will begin editing a new Unboxing video but I haven’t decided which one yet. I am also continuing work on Under Falling Skies, I have not worked on it since last month. I updated my laptop yesterday which will help make it easier to get some editing done.

Numbsters is still on deck for filming and possibly recording a playthrough of it. I will be filming at least one, possibly two, more video game playthroughs. I have a new setup in the room for it which makes it more comfortable for playing and easier to get it recorded.  I need to focus on some Unboxing videos though.

I’ve also been kicking around an idea to do a playthrough of a print-and-play game. I have a few to choose from and need to make some time to learn them and figure out a setup for recording. Now that spring finally arrived (fingers crossed), I’m hopeful the extra sunlight will kick me out of my hibernation mode.

Thanks for reading!

Sneak Peek into What’s Upcoming – April 2023

blackcatwhimsy

Welcome to April! We’ve been teased with some warmer, sunny weather the past week and I am ready for summer!  Vacation was great. I was able to relax and re-set, it was just what I needed.

I recorded a video game playthrough of Gloomhaven digital and will be editing it soon to get it ready for publishing. Issues with my laptop forced me to change up what game I played but it worked out well in the end.

I bought a cute-looking game, Numbsters, from Button Shy and might be bumping that one up the list. I still need to film the unboxing but am planning an Unboxing Plus video for that. I’ve kicked around changing up my recording process but haven’t settled on how I want to film moving forward. Numbsters is a pretty straightforward and quick game so I might even pencil that in for a playthrough at some point.

As for items currently in the pipeline, I’m still working on the Under Falling Skies video. I also want to film another video game playthrough (or two) this month. Still trying to play catch up from my vacation last year but I feel like I’m making progress finally!

Sneak Peek into What’s Upcoming – March 2023

March is here with cold but sunny weather. As I’m writing this, it’s a beautiful spring-like day (if you ignore the cool temperatures), with blue skies and sunshine. 

I’m off on vacation soon so I’m trying to get some items done before I leave. I plan on publishing the Herbaceous video in the next day or two. It’s a game with a simple rule set and I’m considering recording an actual playthrough of the game in the future. 

I’ve also recorded a few videos for the future and would like to work on them during some downtime on vacation. Better to work on that than browse social media! Have no fears though, I am definitely going to enjoy myself on vacation in the warmth and sun. 

I’ve recorded the script for Under Falling Skies and have started very light editing of the video. That is slated to be the next unboxing video. I will also be recording a video game playthrough this week sometime. Since I’ll be gone for almost 2 weeks, this will help keep me on schedule with publishing.

Sneak Peek into What’s Upcoming – February 2023

Welcome to February. Work continues on various videos. I’m definitely enjoying the flow again and I’m motivated to work on my videos. It took a while to get back to this point! Maybe this means I shouldn’t go on vacation…

I released The Phantom video and have moved onto the next one. I’m editing the Herbaceous video and it’s going really well. Such a pretty game and it’s a fun video to edit. Next up after Herbaceous will be Under Falling Skies. Script is written so I need to record it and then start the editing. I still need to record my next video game playthrough. I already have a couple lined up and need to just sit down and get them recorded.

I will be posting a blog about what I got up to last month which happily involved a lot of playing games.

Sneak Peek into What’s Upcoming – January

And Time Marches On! 

I am back on track – mostly. The holidays were busy and I’m feeling that letdown with coming off the holidays. 

I am working on a couple videos and plan to release The Phantom Unboxing this month. I also have planned out some time to record another video game playthrough but have yet to decide what that video game will be. 

I’ll be posting about what I’ve gotten up to the past couple of months which hasn’t been much channel wise or game wise. I will continue to work on more unboxing videos and already have a good start on the next two videos after The Phantom.

Sneak Peek into What’s Upcoming – December 2022

With the holidays coming up soon, I will not be doing a lot of stuff related to my channel but the new year will be here soon. The main channel work I will be doing is publishing my 2nd playthrough of Tainted Grail. I will be working on editing a couple of videos, but I don’t know if they will be finished before the end of the month. I will also be posting soon what I got up to in November.

It’s been more difficult than expected to get back into my channel work after having to backburner it for September and October. I have many videos that I have started and need to buckle down and get going on them!

Sneak Peek Into What’s Upcoming – November 2022

It’s already mid-November so this will be a quick upcoming post.

I will finally be releasing my Three Sisters unboxing video! It’s actually been ready for over a month so it’s about time to get it uploaded. I also have a 2nd playthrough of Tainted Grail filmed and just about ready to publish. It requires a few small tweaks and it should be done.

I will be working on a blog post about what has been happening the past couple of months which was a lot in my regular life – not so much with games or my channel.

Since there are only a couple weeks left, I’ll leave this post short and sweet, but hopefully will get back into my regular schedule now.

Sneak Peek Into What’s Upcoming – September 2022

blackcatwhimsy

September is here and the weather is changing. The days are still warm, but the nights are getting cooler. I’m definitely feeling the urge to stay inside, drink some hot chocolate, and play lots of games. First up for the channel is an unboxing video of MicroMacro: Crime City. I need to do a final review of the video, but it should be uploaded in a couple of days. I’ll also be getting a video game playthrough uploaded this month.

I’m close to finishing up Three Sisters and am starting the editing process for Ausonia. We’ll be going on vacation later this month so I’m trying to get as much done before we leave as I can. There may also be a small travel video (or two) upcoming! We’ll be going to the Southwest and will be visiting many of the National Parks down there. It will be our first out-of-state vacation since the pandemic started so we are looking forward to getting away and relaxing.

I’ll also be getting a couple more blog posts done for the month including what happened last month. I’ve been kicking around an idea to update my website slightly so I will be looking into that a little more.

Thanks for reading and I hope you are excited about what’s upcoming! Don’t forget to join the newsletter if you want to receive my news in your inbox.
