Done with the year, 2020
Added 2020-12-21 04:47:58 +0000 UTCTime for a break. I need it!
First of all, I want to thank you all for supporting me through this journey! ...even though I'm all over the place and it was not really good of a year.
BUT
There was a lot of progress I think that happened this year that I should be proud of~
These events include:
- The moment he sneeze
- The Basic Outfit Set series
- The Furria Reflection series
- juxta.LINE for Ludum Dare 46
- A playable prototype
- 🍏 U-PA-PA
- A new song
- Recovering old songs
- That one dice commission
- Having access to VR
- Going through 4,000 followers~! (back then last year I was not even 2k!!)
- Finishing that animation from last year! (coming out this X-mas!!!)
Let's not forget the progress on the major things I'm doing through the year!
- Starting the production of MySt (the PokéProfs sendoff)
- In conjunction, going through the making of FiaDH, as seen in each Points Card
- Project Penguin for Rivals of Aether. (I should really get others to test that, so... here!)
- Prototyping a proper Fia[i] implementation
Sadly, none of them got completed this year, but it just goes to show that I'm only one person that hops on a lot of things and gets screamed by it but that's just life, I guess.
BUT this is the year I also started getting help from others. For example, I got playtesters for FiaDH and Project Penguin, one helped me out in the upcoming animation, and writers to help me out for MySt! I also have someone to help me proofread entries in the Furria Wiki.
Still, there's a lot of smaller victories here and that's something I'm happy about~!
=============================
In terms of art, I actually did a TON!
Not as much as before, but lemme give you a perspective:
- 82 art for others, including commissions and patreon rewards
- 25 basic outfits
- 13 sketch pages
- 280 in TOTAL *.sai2 files, which each one has a piece of art in them!!
(includes everything from personal art, patreon stuff and stuff)
=============================
That said, I haven't gotten through the goal of finishing the Patreon queue at all! There's always a queue this time around and I need to change that.
Let's make it clear: I'm done working for this year!
- I'm taking a vacation, and it'll be for 3 weeks until January 8th
- I'm not taking any point commissions for the queue
- Points will be processed the day after that
- January is ONLY patreon queue, no other projects, no other stuff!
I am sorry in advance, but it's near the holidays and I do want some space and I am really sorry if I haven't gotten around to finishing yours.
The animation actually took longer than I expect, honestly.
This is a promise.
(Also I'll just change the Xmas theme to winter if you've requested that specifically.)
=============================
As for the next year, here's my game plan for those smaller victories:
- 2 song covers
- 2 animations
- RPG minigame for the Discord bot, maybe?
- Actually finishing Penguin
- Actually pushing through the Kalos Miare Art Club
- Actually opening commissions
I hope to be more organized next year, as this one actually helped me go in the groove.
=============================
I always look at the positive of things, and certainly, there are not many chances of seeing that this year with all of the chaos of things. So, cheer up and think of the good times!
...and with that, I hope you all enjoy the upcoming animation, and I hope you all have happy holidays, and let's hope for a better future together!
