Side-Quests Volume 3 Goal Reached! :O (Update Post, June 4th) (Patreon)

We've done it!

The Side-Quests Volume 3 goal (1,333) has been reached! I can't thank you all enough for helping the GaMetal Patreon get this far. While it'll be a little bit till I actually get to work on the album itself, we'll be pulling all 10 songs to appear on the album during tomorrow's Patreon request list stream!

On that note, our next drawing stream will take place at our usual date, tomorrow (the 5th) starting around 2:00 PM US Central Time. We'll be drawing the 10 Side-Quests 3 songs as well as our normal 1 drawing song to go on the current to-do list.

With a really big important drawing coming up, I urge all Tier 3+s to make sure you've updated your request list before tomorrow, if needed.

Development has begun on the next big GaMetal project, code named Project One. My current goal is to have this done by November. Earlier this year, I was considering pushing this off till 2020, but then I realized this would be a great way to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of GaMetal. Yep... it's been 10 years since the first official GaMetal song, time flies right?

But before all that, we have some bigger fish to fry, like more Atmacoustics/Acoustic Shorts, the to-do list, and Patreon Appreciation Month coming up in August. I'm hopeful to get the to-do list cut down to 2-3 songs by August, and with Side-Quests 2 and May Madness finally off my plate, I can finally focus on clearing it out.

Here's the current to-do list at the moment:

• Next: Dancing Mad
• June: Ex Machina (Monolith)
• June: Amp Plains (Pokémon Mystery Dungeon)
• June?: Daughter of the Dark God (Octopath Traveler)
• June?: Big Top Bop (Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze)
• TBA*: Kobito of the Shining Needle ~ Little Princess (Touhou 14: Double Dealing Character)
• TBA: Void Termina / Soul (and maybe some Astral Birth) (Kirby Star Allies)
• TBA: Force Your Way (Final Fantasy VIII)
• TBA: Protecting My Devotion (Final Fantasy IX)
• TBA: Battle! Zinnia (Pokémon Omega Ruby / Alpha Sapphire)
• TBA: Falling Down (Mega Man Zero 4) *This won a Discord Request Battle and I keep forgetting to post it lol

*This has changed to TBA because I've decided to do something cool with it.

This, of course, leaves out the upcoming drawing songs, my birthday song choice (July 1st), the SQ3 songs, and handpick songs. But we'll add those as we go along.

The Side-Quests Volume 2 Physicals are supposed to arrive at my doorstep today! Once I make sure everything is in order, I'll send out the message for the shipping info for the Tier 5+ Patrons. Once that is straightened out, I'll put the rest up for sale (same price as Dreamland Invasion) on Bandcamp and notify you all.

I'd like to do another Youtube Live News/Q&A Session this month, perhaps to coincide with the Side Quests Volume 2 physicals going up to help sell some more stock. I'll keep you posted when I decide on an official date and time.

That's all for now. I'll be updating the current request list throughout the day, with a current entry post up later tonight. Also, I should have a Dancing Mad preview coming for you within the next couple of days, and hopefully the entire song done by the end of the weekend. Until then, thank you all as always for being awesome, and once again for helping us reach another amazing milestone goal, and I'll see you in the next post! :D
