Hello, everyone.
Kinda insane that I haven't had any big news to announce in almost two years. I've had a lot on my mind and my hands have been full for a while. College, videos, relaxation… I always had something to do even when I felt bored as hell.
News for this year is mainly focused on the channel. I can't believe we're almost at 300 subscribers. Wonderland.jar was a huge help for pushing my numbers that high and I'm working on a second video as we speak. The scares and mod progression have certainly sped up since the last video…
The 5K Tetralogy is now complete. I'm so happy, proud and accomplished for finishing something so massive. I've already got ideas on how I want to make the movie supercut. Going to be lots of rerecording!
Below is a copy of a newsletter I sent out to members of this website. I don't send these out often but this has much more content so I'll paste it here too.

Hello everyone,
It's been a while since I've done one of these. Thought I'd let you all know of some things moving forward. Firstly, the news page has been updated for the first time in nearly two years. Went ahead and tried to update people on things going on but there isn't a lot happening here, at least not for me. For the site I've gone ahead and added new themes from a project I was working on with a friend, mexaj, Worldsoc Technologies. This project was extremely fun to work on and I hope we get the chance to write more for it again soon. While I don't think that'll happen since neither of us have good ideas, our account Near-Amaranth Studios on BlueSky will remain up (if I can remember the password lol). If you want to see more from us, take a look there!
For my channel, I can't believe we're almost at 300 subscribers. It's insane the growth my channel has undergone lately. Finishing the 5K Tetralogy, making that wonderland.jar video, continuing to keep people updated… I'm hoping soon we'll break into 300 and maybe even 400. 500 is my goal since that's when I start getting money from donations and memberships (not that I'm going to include them yet) but it's one step closer to watch ads, which is 1000 subscribers. If I can get there I'll be happy.
I've fixed some other housekeeping things, such as missing permissions, the site's title font (I was bored with that barcode stuff) and making some new ideas that are still too early to promote. You'll see soon ;)
Thank you all for sticking around, even if it's only on this site. I appreciate you.
Signing off for now.
Regards,
That's all for now, everyone.
Until next time,
