Update 12/23 - THANK YOU FOR THIS YEAR!!!! GOD JUL ETC ETC ETC ETC

AY

Alfabusa is here, and I want to keep this update (relatively) short and sweet because there's really only one Content Thing of note and that's that our next HTP Audiolog, containing the climax to the great Blender Crusade that Big-D has taken upon himself, will be releasing in the coming days.

It is currently at 50% of its final render and it is expected to be entirely finished by tomorrow but I am unsure if releasing it on Christmas is the brightest idea.

In either case, know that it isn't far away.

And, yeah, in other news, we're going to be taking a break and prepare ourselves for the coming year.

As you can probably figure, this year has been a lot in every single way for us.
At the beginning of this year, we had just released episode 1 of HTP and, frankly, we were not expecting much out of it...
Now, we're at the other end of 2022, and, oh shit, with more videos than I've ever released in the span of a year I think?

And they've all done better than we could have ever, EVER expected, doing numbers equal to the videos released during the bigger span of the TTS days (in the case of audio-based content, even better).

And, yeah, suffice to say, this was all made possible by you guys.
You helped me out, you helped me and my family survive through this year with insane feats of support, you helped me gather a team that has been integral in developing, in my opinion, some of the best stuff ever put on the channel, and...
Yeah, I could not possibly thank you enough for this, all of you.

I want to give massive thank you to everyone here, everyone who has stuck by us and every single one who does as much as just take their precious time to watch the stuff we throw up.

It is IMMENSELY,  I M M E N S E L Y  appreciated and I want to really, really, really push appreciation straight into your frontal lobe with big love.

One new cool development I can mention as proof of the real effect you have on this project that is ENTIRELY thanks to you is that one of our illustrators, Ironirocal, who we mentioned in the Update video as being one we had to let go due to the strained situation?

Well, she is not let go at all actually.
After the mass support-wave and us budgeting up, its been decided that she is staying right here with us, thanks to you!!!

SO GOOD.

SOOOOOOO GOOD.

We of course want to get the other two back as well, but first we have to pay our freelancers their due AND we have to make supremely sure that bringing them on again will not break the budget during a prolonged period, which will be a significantly harder thing to pull off but not an impossibility if we can retain your interest and your feeling that this is a worthy investment on your part.

But, in either case, that will all be for next year...

For now we must go and lay ourselves before the yulegoat so as to prevent its burning or let us be swallowed by the flame and ascend with the goat to the greater fields.

I wish you GOD JUL, Happy Holidays, Season's Greetings, a Happy New Year and Very Cool Weekend.

I BETTER SEE YOU NEXT YEAR.

Until next time, have a good one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
