IMPORTANT: Changes coming to the Patreon page

Hey everyone! Thanks so much for the support on Patreon for all these years. There are some important changes coming to this page soon, and I just wanted to outline everything for you before they happen.

First of all, the next video will NOT be released here on Patreon first. I can't say why just yet, but it will make sense when the video releases. Early access vi...

Super Mario Galaxy - An Impossible Masterpiece (Early Access)

Super Mario Galaxy accomplishes several impossible feats for a Mario game, with its non-stop creative game design revolving around space, and its surprisingly moving story that recontextualizes your entire adventure and taps into what I love most about stories of space.

Liam plays Tears of the Kingdom for the first time (Early Access)

Here are my genuine first reactions to Tears of the Kingdom. 70 hours of gameplay, edited down into a 90-minute highlight reel. Featured in this video are my unfiltered ramblings and thoughts on the game itself, as well as funny things that happened to me along the way. I hope you enjoy!

In this video, I explore my relationship with one of the more contentious Mario games, and how I've come to love everything about it - including how strange it tends to be.

Zelda: A Link Between Worlds - Committed to Change (Early Access)

A Link Between Worlds was an exciting first step in a new direction for the Zelda series, but abandoning its age-old formula meant sacrifices had to be made. It's still an excellent game, and served as a stepping stone in the creation of Breath of the Wild.

Sonic the Hedgehog in 3D - A Retrospective (Early Access)

Sonic the Hedgehog in 3D. A tumultuous run with great ideas scattered and buried throughout a minefield of lost potential. In this video, I take a look at every 3D Sonic game Sonic Team developed in an attempt to understand where we are today.

IMPORTANT but brief update on billing

Hi everyone, just wanted to make a quick post mentioning that this Patreon page now uses Patreon's new "subscription" billing timeline. From this point onward, all new patrons will be charged based on the day they sign up. If you're an existing patron, I think it still defaults to the 1st, but this means that new patrons can be flexibly billed every 30 days from the date in which they signed up...

Super Mario 64 - More Than a Game (Early Access)

Due to a copyright claim, I had to slightly edit the original ending. The director's cut version with the proper ending will be available here on Patreon at some point!

Super Mario 64 is more than a game in the modern day. This videos examines the game's legacy through its outstanding gameplay, speedrunning, content creation, and obsession over the little secrets we once dreamt were real....

Some final thoughts as 2021 comes to an end

I went through a lot of personal stuff this year. I'll spare you the details, because I'm pretty sure it bled through my work in 2021. And I wouldn't change that at all. With me finally finishing a video on my favourite game of all time,  creating awesome opportunities for myself and building an audience of like-minded people, I couldn't have asked for a better year in spite of everything ...

So...the GameCube Retrospective hit 100,000 views in 2 days.

I don't know how this happened. To be honest, the rapid growth of the video scared the crap out of me because I wasn't 100% happy with it. But it has definitely caused ripples across my other videos, most notably Wind Waker and Metroid Prime. 3000 new subscribers so far from that video alone. This is s...

Super Monkey Ball: Banana Mania Review - Return to Monke

(Apologies for not releasing this one early on Patreon, but due to the embargo, I could not)


Review copy provided by Sega. Played on PC.

Super Monkey Ball is back (hopefully for good). While Banana Mania doesn't feel as tight as the originals, its new engine has purpose, and it serves as an excellent tribute to a timless pack of levels. Welcome back, my beloved monkeys. View Post

The Courageous Heart of The Wind Waker (Early Access)

Thanks for your continued support! Here's an update.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to welcome and thank new patrons for joining over the course of my break. I got back to working on my next video not long ago, but it has been difficult to get back into the swing of things. Words still aren't coming as naturally to me as they did before, although part of that could be due to the subject matter. Wind Waker is an important game to me, and the video ha...

Black Mesa Video Scrapped, Wind Waker Video Moving Forward

Hey everyone, I have some unfortunate news. After much deliberation, I've decided to scrap the Black Mesa video (for now). I still have a lot to say about the game, but as the video came together, I realized that it would have only echoed what has been said about the game before, or served as an effective replacement for just playing the game yourself. The pressure to finish this video on a sch...
