Hi.

So, my stream has been really successful lately (at least with viewership), perhaps more than it has ever been, and I'm sure that has a lot to do with the change in content to more casual games that I've been really wanting to play. I have definitely transitioned to primarily casual content lately, which has been great for my mental health, and I've had a few people asking me what my speedrunning plans are. I get it, that is definitely what I built my channel on.

I am currently in the middle of several casual playthroughs, and I need to tie up those loose ends. I just finished Layton 2, so I'm not in the middle of that one, but I want to finish Ace Attorney Investigations 2 (I'm on the last case, so this one should be really doable) and Wario Land Shake It 100% (probably 3-4 more sessions left) before I leave for SGDQ. So what is the plan when I get back from SGDQ?

1. Speedrunning High Seas Havoc - I started learning this, but it is probably one of the hardest games I've ever played, and I've never beaten it, so there is a lot of work to be done. This will probably be a somewhat long project, assuming I enjoy it enough to continue it for very long.

2. Speedrunning Wario Land Shake It 100% - This seems like a really fun routing/optimization challenge, but the run is about 5 hours long, so this will probably be the sort of thing that start off spending a lot of time to learn and do initial runs, and then will eventually be the sort of thing I stream on random Saturday mornings from then on, due to the length.

3. Casual playthrough of Bubsy in Fractured Furry Tales on console (thanks drex) and some CD-i stuff now that it's working again (thanks Laplacier). I'm excited to get back into some trash games.

4. Continuing Ace Attorney - I'll probably take a short break from AA (a week or two after SGDQ), but the plan is to move on to AA4, AA5, AA6, and then the DGS games. I'll also definitely be playing Layton 3 so that I can play the Layton x AA crossover. Any more Layton after that is really up to how I'm feeling about it. Nothing promised.

5. More casual playthroughs - I've amassed a list of games I want to play casually on stream. Some long, some short. Lot's of games to come. I may start doing some sort of voting for the next casual series, so I can see what people are really interested in. I'll publish some of these ideas once I get to that point.

All this to say, thank you for letting me make my stream more relaxing and fun for me. It is hard to change content, and most of the time, it can really hurt a stream, but I'm grateful that you support me no matter what I'm playing. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
