View Unblocked Image [SPOILER WARNING]

The end of July and all of August was very bad for me.  I suffered a death in the family and had to drive out to where my family lives and deal with the fallout of it.  After I returned home to resume working, my appendix ruptured and I had to go to the hospital for emergency surgery.  I thought I'd be able to resume my regular life, but recovery was very long and painful and took way more out of me than I expected.  Since then, I've had a very hard time re-adjusting.

It's a good thing the people I took on to this project kept it going while I was recovering.  Scene D is so very close.  We're hitting the nitty gritty of the action of it.  It's the longest scene with the most characters, so I expect to still be working on it the rest of the month, along with the animator I've hired on for it.  Once we lock this down, everything will be soooo much easier.  I'm happy with the shape it's in at the moment.

Scene F is not progressing as fast as I'd wanted and it's not looking as good as I'd wanted.  I fear I'm going to need to make a lot of adjustments myself in the end.  I'm a little scared for it right now.

Scene B is actually progressing quite a bit.  It's definitely over halfway done.  I've been doing it on-stream, and plan to post the VODs of me working on it here on Patreon.

I've been having a very hard time re-adjusting to my work.  I was already behind, but what's happened has put me even more behind and has made it all the harder for me.  I am still struggling to adjust to getting back to normal.  At this point I am officially recovered, I need to figure out a better way to do this, as my anxiety is hindering my work.  I have it in me, but it's not shining through right now.

I feel like I can really get this where it needs to be and push it if I can get past the mental state I'm in...  As of writing this, I'm improving, but I wish things were in a much better place.

Oh I Am Sorry For Your Loss! It's Heartbreaking Losing Someone Close To You. I Hope You're Okay. Take Your Time With The Episode.

Take all the time you need. This is a lot to take on board so do what you need to heal yourself. Props to your team for working on while this is happening.

I'm so sorry Shipp! Appendicitis is rough - I had the surgery in 2020 and tried to return to work the same week, only to be in a meeting where I had to mute myself in order to vomit. I hope you remain in good health from here forward!

Awkward Segway

Sorry for your loss and the issue with your appendix. Take as much time as you need.

Dude, there's no rush at all. Just relax, continue grieving if you need, recover for as long as you might possibly need to, and focus on living for a bit. Everything will fall into place as long as you don't abandon the project altogether. You got this!

Even just giving yourself the chance to heal physically will make the project a lot less anxiety- producing. Between grief & surgery, you've had a realiy harsh summer - I'd be more worried if you felt fine tbh. Your team sounds great & you can do this - just please let yourself recuperate

Mental health and happiness is much more important. The project can wait; It won't disappear. I know what it's like to do graphics. Your graphics are already amazing!!!! Every time I see any of the videos, I want to tell you to go apply to Nintendo. You are that amazing.

health is most important, of course. i'm sorry that you suffered a loss. I looked at the spoiler image and the forest king is coming back? Maybe the dead charactoers are returning.

Sorry to hear about your loss. Mental health is the most important of all so please take care of it before getting full steam ahead. Your persistence itself has been very inspiring.

The best advice I can give is to focus on yourself. I have complete faith that you'll make it.
