Hello everyone! We're taking a break.

We've entered the final stage of moving. You know, the uh, actual moving part. So I'll soon be packing my computer up before taking a 6 hour flight.

Because of this, we'll be taking a small break. Everything is stressful enough, I don't exactly want to sit down in my new home to be editing again right away in a temporary set up.

I'm expecting to take a pause on Youtube until mid November, which means my next video probably won't be until late November/ Early December.

But do not fret, dear viewer, we will be opening the channel community and posting art every now and again in our absence. Hop in and say hi, or post some fan art yourself!

To be entirely honest, it's a break from all this I've been needing anyway. It gets tiring to put your all into something for it to largely get recommended to people who watch for 10 or 12 seconds killing the video, and know your view and sub count kind of isn't real. Not trying to be sad, just saying what it's like, you know? It will just make it all the more satisfying when I succeed.

Anyway, that was probably too much text for people of the modern age. We'll be back soon enough.

Thank you all for the support over the last ten months, I hope we can continue to bring some joy to your lives when we return.

Hello Everyone! Two pictures this time.

In the recent video I said "We're trying to hit a thousand subscribers before the end of the year".

Not even three days passed by and we made it there. We can't even keep up, this post should have been yesterday!

Whether your a new subscriber or an old one, Thank you.

I feel silly, I just put up a thank you post the other day. In that post, I'm literally worrying if I can get to a 1000, lol. The 5000 subscriber thank you post should take much longer, so I won't feel so silly next time.

This very relieving, and kind of special for me. I was beginning to wonder if I was able to do this kind of thing while still talking about games I wanted to, or if I had to just chase what was 'in'.

Unlike with my Pikuniku video, this rain world video isn't after recent news or anything like that, which is really encouraging.

Old man rambling aside, I hope some of you new subs will check out my older stuff that interest you. I'm not perfect, not every video will be for everyone, but there is some joy to be found in there.

Thank you all again. Imagine I'm rapidly bowing with thanks and spilling coffee everywhere.

Thanks to all of your support, we've made it into the YouTube Partner Program at the first tier! (no ad revenue, but could do members)

I appreciate that I've somehow been entertaining enough for you all to watch and sub to. I know everyone says it, but without all of you, I wouldn't be here making videos.

I was happily moving at my own pace, but the recent announcement to changes for YouTube watch hour requirements has got me quite stressed to be honest, and while life is so busy for me. Couldn't have been a worse time to hear it. It sucks.

But with the support from all of you, I should hopefully be able to make it by the end of the year. It lines up about perfect, it's going to be close if I make it or not.

wish me luck, I'll continue to try my best!

Hello everyone!

Ordinarily, I try to put out a video around every two weeks, however, we are currently in the process of moving. Because of this, there won't be a video today, and there is likely to be some delays going forward.

This isn't a complete hiatus as of yet, just a longer wait time between videos. It's a bit of a shame, since the channel was just starting to pick up in momentum, but that's life for you.

Regardless, I thought I might as well give you guys a heads up since I think I have a few silent loyal viewers who could notice. Not sure really.

I'll try to keep everyone updated as things go forward.

Finally, thank you all for your understanding and the continued support. I'll keep trying my best to hopefully bring some joy into your lives.

Did an A/B test on the recent video, ending in a tie.
keeping up the current one because it falls in line with the first video, but I preferred this one more. Just thought I would post it for people to appreciate it.

Hello Everyone! The turtle decided to speed up since last month. Thank you for all the support!

While working on the Megaman X Rabbids part 2 video, I released a Pikuniku video I knew I could create quickly to put something out while you all wait for it. It's now the top video on the channel.

That's just the way things go, the high effort personal videos do okay, and a playthrough of a 3 hour game gets thousands of views. What can you do. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Regardless, one of the reasons I started creating videos was to hopefully be a comfortable and nice place for people to discover new video games for themselves. Of course I don't expect all of you to watch every video or anything like that. I hope you keep your eye on me, and check in when I do something that catches your attention.

I feel like YouTube channels are often too hyper focused on one thing, which is easier as a creator. But I want to help some people stumble into new things for themselves to enjoy, so I've never wanted to take that path.

Regardless, Thank you for all the support both new and old. I hope I can continue to entertain you in some capacity with my questionable content.

Hello viewers and bots,

I have an update on the story time stuff and the Mega Man X Rabbids video on this channel. So it's secretly two post, making it long, sorry about that.

For Story time videos:

I do plan to do more Story time videos, although they will probably not be often or ever the main thing I'm doing. I got a surprising amount of subs from the 'My Experience' and a lot of positive feedback.

But it's also my worst video for peoples retention, which is how long people actually watch it. only about 15% of views on that video stayed for the halfway mark, and 30% for the 30 second mark. so I guess the unvoiced Majority really didn't want to give it a chance? I can only be left to guess why, but we're considering messing around with the art style a bit more to help it stand out.

Regardless if my story times are ever popular or not, I'll probably do one occasionally because it was never meant to help get me more viewers in the first place. It was more of a way to let my current ones know more about me.

----------------------------------------

For Mega Man X Rabbids Videos:

I'm making a part 2, it will not be my next video but probably the one after. I think, it will depend if making it goes well or not.

The video, like the story time, is being received surprisingly well, and seemed like it was going to be one of my big hits for a moment there.

But the algorithm decided to pull the plug on it for whatever reason faster then normal, what can you do. It might pick up again later, that happens sometimes. Despite not doing as well as I hoped, I decided why not try another one? It didn't exactly recommend the current video to the right people after all, looking like Mega man, Minecraft, and Roblox viewers... hm...

Besides, who else would make the idea? I googled Mega man X Rabbids yesterday, the video is literally the google result right now. That's kind of cool.

--------------------------------------------

Anyway, I just wanted to be transparent about things going on. Here's a WhoseRabbid for your time. He might look a little scrunchy since I drew him instead of Violet, but you know. It is what it is.

TLDR: lotsa words, more story time eventually, more Mega Man X Rabbids

Have a good day

Hello everyone! we reached 300 subs now! Thank you all.

I know it might seem like a weird and random number to thank you all again for. But for a moment there, I was experiencing a lot of people unsubscribing while I switched to having more general content and not being a Mega Man only channel. (Ironically, hitting 300 because of a Mega Man Video now)

Between each video I was only getting juuuust enough newcomers to make it look like we were slowly increasing, so it felt kind of stressful. But things feel more stable now, people check what kind of channel I am and know what to expect. I might not be a blow up success, but I think slow and steady suits me just fine. I like my turtle.

So, since a lot of the people I thanked originally at 100 might not be around anymore, it felt like I should thank you all again. Whether your new or have stayed around watching my admittedly questionable content since the beginning,

Thank you again. Truly.

This is a picture that was going to go up with the poll, but pictures and polls can't be together apparently. (unless it's a picture poll)

Thank you for everyone who voted in it, look forward to one of these being covered for my next video.

Hello, quick obligatory post to thank you all for your support and getting me to 100 subscribers.

I didn’t expect to get here as quickly as I did with my two little videos, and I know what I’m making is still rough around the edges. But you guys subscribed anyway, and that means a lot. So thank you.

I may not respond to comments (since I didn’t want that to be a standard that I do) but I do read them and take in your feedback. Whether it's praise, disagreeing with me, correcting me, or just sharing your own feelings about whatever topic I was talking about, I appreciate it. So please keep doing that if you have the time.

I should mention that going forward, I will not be a Mega Man only channel. I do have other Mega Man videos that I will be doing, but it’s far from the only thing I would like to bring to the table.

With that in mind, I would like to ask you guys what kind of games you're into. While I’m not going to jump onto the first suggestion or anything like that, it’s probably a good idea to know my audience a little better.

It might end up shifting around the order I make videos in. Or I ignore it all and start talking about The Gourmand from Rain World. You never know.

Anyway, that’s all I had to say.

Cheers.
