Oh Silly Sniff Snifferish.... If you go back and look at my October/September Update, you'll see I had very different plans for how I wanted this year to pan out, and the release schedule of my videos. Alas, I got caught up in something (This video) and It couldn't let me go. It hurts to disappoint those awaiting videos, Mastering Magic, other build videos, etc. So I can only hope this video makes up for everything...
With that said, I owe you guys a lot of behind the scenes content, so let's get to it!
As of right now we are planning for a December 21st release, with an early Patreon release as soon as possible. Following this, there will be a behind the scenes video, discussing the production, characters, and motivations behind the video.
There will be 2 World Downloads, and a Modpack for this video. One of my world after the video, and before. I'm also currently seeing if I can get someone to make a vanilla copy of the world for our bedrock friends.
Some insight into the video:
As it currently stands, the video is 2 hours long (Sorry?) consisting half of voiceover gameplay and half of live acted cutscenes
Speaking of cutscenes... This video features a cast of ten characters, played by Snifferish (Hahah that's me), Apokuna, Graecie, Poodwattle, Roscumber, Sneegsnag, SoupforEloise, Krinios, Graaavel, and FGMoo. All of these cutscenes included exterior shots, eg. the screenshot above.
A story! Wouldn't be a Sniff Snifferish video without a story, but this one is truly a roleplay at it's heart. Despite being framed as a "100 Days" video, I really wanted to give more motive to the video. Thus, Sniff has goals that shift throughout the story. These are mostly improved so admittedly it isn't as refined or as consistent, but I think there is joy in that too.
Beauty. What this video lacks in maybe research, or an extremely polished story, It surely makes up for in visuals. Obviously a lot of it is still gameplay, or story told through a first person perspective, but I really wanted even those moments to feel like something special.
This video has been very experimental for me, but it's something I'm quite happy with at the moment. I can't wait to share it with you as soon as possible, and apply everything I've learned into future content.
As always, a lovely reminder that if you want a name different from your patreon name displayed at the end of the video, to shoot me a dm :)
