In this section, I will be going over all the videos I have uploaded, this can include thoughts, and other notes that I have about these
This was a "No pressing A Challenge" that I didn't do ANY commentary, I was just silent and played till I basically gave up. It's weird looking back on this video now that I've attempted to putmore effort into my videos, even tho the thumbnail showing the new VV textures while this one uses the old, cuz I updated it :p
This video did AMAZING for this channel, obv cuz its a tutorial, people are gonna look up for it and try and find out things about it, HOWEVER someone called "W-Walkthroughs" did the EXACT SAME IDEA, theirs uploaded at 21:58:48 GMT while mine was 19:21:52 GMT, which is weird because they made this one video on the day they created their channel and then dipped. Mine is way better tho cuz i didn't fast forward to do mine, i did cut to my "perfect" runs tho cuz i wanted it all in one continuous take. I reckon my video will overtake theirs as I uploaded this tutorial on the Steam Workshop for people to watch.
Yuh i speedrun juniper cuz i felt like it, never giving this a thumbnail cuz its as boring as it looks.
i plan to redo this video someday BUT ima redo this "part 1" cuz it was BAD like the script was read way to fast and had NOTHING to it, the editings fine but YIKES im bad at reading. It's very awkward hearing me read a script that i wrote literally 5mins before the video, and it shows that idk what im saying lol. Defo gonna work on this more when i redo the video.
I actually talk in this video, completely unedited, and its okaaaaaay ig "disabled people" might be offensive but idk, i had never actually used it before this video so u can tell im not used to it AT ALL. But its okaaaaay, i would probs change the thumbnail + edit it to more of a highlights thing maybe? im not sure but its not the worst on this channel
And Then Nothing..
I took a break to focus on Masharmi, But now that idk what to do with that channel, my break is over and now im over here again!
This video is PURPOSEFULLY BAD (i promise) its got no talking cuz its not needed here, plus i didnt need to show my personality in this video cuz its more about "oh wow look at this wackkyyy bug" but overall it does the job.
Obv riding off the hype of Vibrant Venture Beta 3.0 I'm gonna show smt off in the new update and since its a secret level, theres not rlly much i can do other than show it off, plus i speedran and showed off the time trials, which i feel is better than nothing, plus this video is where my whole DESCRIPTION game GOES HARD cuz the characters are all in there with their fancy emojis n shit, theres the chapters which are cool and those have became mainstays for future videos
I just needed a video to introduce my personality a bit, while also testing out how uploading twice a week is.. it's pain buuut at least its possible and OH BOY DOES IT UPKEEP VEIWS
I just wanted to ride off more beta 3 hype, PLUS do my "all in one take" thing like juniper, and also its kinda another "help" video which is cool n all
Kinda filler, but also did SO MUCH BETTER than i thought it would, kinda hate how the thumbnails so dark but yeah its okay
I did my typical VV speedrun, which is a world rush of World 1, cuz it's the easiest to do (i kinda hate that it's not the LATEST version but whatever) i TRIED SO HARD for a sub 8min but it just wasnt happening :c anyway no commentary, just kinda basic, its okay BUT THE THUMBNAIL GOES CRAZY, and it worked SO much better than i thought it would and i think it's so pretty :)
I cant be the only person who reads it like that.. anyway i just got frame by frame in my run, the original recording was like 30mins of stuttering that LUCKILY i cut down to remove my "UHH"'s, i also added captions (help from chatgpt) on this video cuz i do talk! and swear! i should cut down on that.. maybe..? i think a little is okay but yeah it shows my personality which is cool
Tbh i wasnt even that drunk or anything, i kinda dumbed myself down for the video but its super funny and cool, not much else to say about it other than at last second (hours before it went live) i had to cut it into 2 parts cuz, not only was it getting too long (vids under 10mins do better) but also world 3 was 1/2 of the video and i dont got time for that, cuz it goes up in 3hrs
I get to the HOW Sign asap and acap (as cool as possible) its a cool run but not revolutionary, the video came out better than expected cuz it wasnt as chaotic as the drinking video but it was still fun and enjoyable imo
I continue a seris? Never! But here I'll say that the white background is SO much easier and the only reason I did it last video did that was just because of the time constraint but here I actually did it even tho I had time to add one.. its just easier, also i did less editing because in my head, ima conbine them into a longer video and i just said "fuck it ill add all the gifs when i combine the two videos" then hit export.
In the thumbnail it shows a playstation controller, but i couldnt be asked to ask my artist to say "well actually 🤓" and change it so fuck it, also the hate is a slightly higher saturation. lastly this is the slowest i think ill ever play vibrant venture cuz im using a way i never do, i think the only way id be slower is if i was blindfolded but thats a whole other video.
Playstation controller again but the art was made before the video sooo playstation controller again, this (and the next one) are probs the last ones with backgrounds (unless these video do good) simularly to the drunk seris it's an hour long recording, cut into 2 parts which will probably be the norm. btw this was rushed edited ON THE DAY of the upload lol
Not much to say, the video did fine but its just me playing level builder levels that are "halloween" based. Not much to it unfortuatntly
And Then November happened..
Wow that month sucked, it felt like i had put all my effort into something just for it to go nowhere :/
But I had to keep making videos.
Shitty shorts like video where its just me seeing "pistachio" and laughing.
I wont disclose the challenge in this blog, it's called a secret for a reason, but for me it's obvious. I do it all the time in all my other videos so in this one it sticks out to me as the "challenge where i cant ___" just see the way i talk and its not hard. ;)
On par with my first video in terms of entertainment for me. It's just me talking while also not being able to say whats going on my life. It's annoying that I couldnt do any better because I had a week. But then again I was wasting my time with someone who doesnt value my friendship so whatever.
Thats it really. But i did mention my December help videos which were surpossed to come out in the next week, but obv plans fell though.
But this is when the arguing happened between me and my friend was at it highest, and i just wanted to put my head down and begin working on the "december help videos" i mentioned in the previous video.
But the following day, I did do what I had to.
I put my head down and pumped out a video everday of December:
(or at least that was the plan)
1-1 is pretty popular so i bet people don't need tips for it
That sucked, I feel like I could make more but if these aren't preforming then i guess i'll have to scrap the idea.
I think i have to stop these videos.
Maybe it only did well because Violastro is in the thumbnail, but i don't think it was worth completing at all.
Why did I think those videos would do well? people don't watch individual runs unless it's interesting like a Tas or something
With that failure of a seris, I didn't know what to do, I'm very numbers motivated, if I see big numbers, I'm more inclined to do anything, I think everyone is slightly.
I posted some filler videos till I felt more comfortable to get more of my ideas out there, least these were better.
One of the reasons the end of December was because my friend revealed that the "drawings" he did were AI generated, I know that the VV Community hates AI and had to decline using any "art" they made, and begun drawing them myself, I'd been learning for 2months at this point and although they're worse, it's better for me.
its just the 2 videos together
its just the 2 videos together, these videos did "alright", so I was worried for my next post.
An original video that did good, my first 1 of 10 in awhile, I hadn't had one in a month at this point, the secret strat one, but seeing this, made me so much more confident to post more "out there" videos
I know it's not all about the numbers of the videos, but damn seeing this video just SKYROCKET in views was so satifying to see, at this point I'm considering just cancelling the channel because the effort and numbers werent adding up in my head. The video isn;t anything special, just my theory on the game, but it isn't gameplay, people ARE interested in Vibrant Venture videos that aren't just Banana Challenges.
I just analyse a gameplay trailer made by Keoki but THIS VIDEO ALSO DID GREAT, I think this opens up so much more stuff for me, it doesn't just have to be "speedrun but __" but ANYTHING VV related, It's really motivating.
Around now I started posting more community posts with the updated art, luckily they're doing well, making me motivated to draw and change the thumbnails. :)
Fun fact and actual behind the scenes stuff, I recorded 25 games of Vibrant Venture, and my computers TOO SLOW to render that so I had to settle for 9, the original idea was 100, but I think my computer would explode if I tried that. Video did great aswell, I love seeing the 1 of 10, it's really motivating.
but cuz im bad at the game, ofc it wasnt. I could've rerecorded it n whatnot but I found it funny so i just uploaded it as it is, by now I'm motivated to do videos and create new fun ideas for the channel, (as long as they do well) I also LOVE the shadow of the pit I added here, I genually think it's worth looking into for the actual game, but i aint no developer.
Key word in the title is "TRIED" Because I was only able to show off 4 in the end. Man I hate this thumbnail, I hope I get the common sense to change it in the future cuz it's really bad atm.
I wonder if this video did well because it had Niffty in the thumbnail
Wait a double upload? That's cool! So I wanted to do both of these videos so I ended up uploading them at the same time! It should also be great for the channel, because if you watch one video, you can move over to the other
The videos themselves also 1/2 go hard. The analysis has some of my best editing I've ever done, especially with the opening. Meanwhile the run video isn't allowed any, because if i did, it wouldnt count on Speedrun.com, which should promote the video more.
Got called out on my taste
I took a short break because my college life was more important than videos, life be as it be
This video FLOPPED
