And with this, we are finally caught up with past covers. A lot of what I wanted to say has been covered, so I'll keep it on here.
"It’s been 10 years since a wonderful game called 'To the Moon' came out and really opened my eyes to beautiful narratives in a video game, and it feels like the story would still hold up to this day. This piece of the same name is also able to reflect that in some way, reflecting a character’s own demonstration of passion and love, a very well-known story. There isn’t really much more I really wanna say on the process part, especially since I do want the piece (and the game) to speak for itself, and the story’s a bit difficult to explain. But as always, I’ll never stop recommending a game with a great story, so give it a shot if you want a good, emotional, 4-5 hour game. That being said, I do have a lot to talk about outside of the piece itself.

On the technical side, I wanted to try to combine some audio processes, and tried recording audio and video separately, for future purposes and preparations. Hopefully, it isn’t too noticeable, if at all. By separating the audio from the video, I am able to eliminate any background noise prior to and after the piece, so there’s less white noise. With the turn of the New Year, I do hope to up production a touch to apply some things I’ve learned over the past year, as well as try some new things out to maaaybe make things better, but at least gives me some extra experience on the field."
