Hello, people. Finally got to writing a post on this wonderful evening. Some things had happened that I would want to share with you. So let's look into it.

You often hear how time flies, don't you? Well, I am not going to say it this time but I'm glad to announce I've reached remarkable for myself milestone; 5 whole years in game development. Well, fangame development, but that still counts in my opinion. And well, the exact date was never documented by me, but it's no further than June 2017. The point is, I've been through a lot with this community. I had my ups and downs, I had my experiences with every department of this fascinating process, I had created my fun little projects. When you try to look at my profile, you will question how is it 5 years when this account only dates back to 2019? Well, I never thought I would have mentioned it again with how things were going up until this point, but I'm gladly reminding you of my very first work - One Week at Springtrap. With doing some tedious tech examination (aka hovering over the application to see its description), I've discovered that earliest OWAS build was executed at June 7th 2017. After that, the game and I had a long path to go and it was fully released on August 30th 2019 (yes, it took over 2 years, whatever), with the update support until autumn 2020 (when apparently I wasn't so sick with perfectionism). I might have never mentioned it here, tried to distance myself from it in a few ways, but in the end, I still hold this project close to my heart, no matter what I say otherwise. And for very picky people, yes, this day can still count as five years, since beforehand I was actively preparing myself to programming and been trying to create a FNAF 3 clone (which was not OWAS, being one of the reasons that other project was abandoned for the benefit of everyone)

Not only does my 'career' but also my progression in education reaches new heights. From this day on, I've officially finished 11th grade and graduated from my school. I am pretty sure I am not going to look back at it that much, but I'll dearly miss some of the teachers that gave me the knowledge I am using now. Probably a lot of parents don't realise how this moment is getting closer and closer, I honestly didn't mention the time go past me either (especially considering the disasters happened during 2020-2022 with all this online stuff). My whole time there was an accumulation of so many feelings I could not possibly put into this post right now. Regardless, today was highly positive, I even felt confident enough to take a few selfies.

Oh right, face reveal, ynot. Yeah, yeah, screenshot it with a caption 'feeling cute, might delete later'

But you could ask (unlikely), a spontaneous showcase of how you look with no awkward teasing so expected from you? And to that, c'mon, I just needed to do a seamless transition to the closing thoughts on everything. The thing is, I'm unaware of what I'm going to pursue with next more than ever. It's very unclear to me what I'm supposed to do further. And that's regarding a hige bit of everything. I can't even tell when or if I'm going to quit most of the web, including this site. Do I leave right now? Or when the summer ends? Will I not? Yep, no idea. Deep down, do I want to? No. Of course I have many ideas in my head I would love to bring here. By now, I would say something's just wrong with me; either too depressed most of the time or switched to doing something creative. I would really want to give a proper answer on what's actually going through my head when I write most of this but I can't put it. If you care a bit, fingers crossed, I may come out with an announcement. For now though, no point of stretching this out. If I can't keep up, I don't want to hate on anyone, or leave any secrets behind me, for the fact of how much I appreciate tying up loose ends.

And if we're talking about leaving no mysteries left, I would want to announce is that I'm possibly going to stream my hit game here on GameJolt (hence I can figure out the OBS and Banana stuff the Firesides require, I swear if the website does not support Opera I'll just pull up my Twitch or YouTube) on around Monday/Thursday to give respect to the game that started it all. I'm still figuring out some technical stuff but if I get all up and running, the game will be fully completed on one of the video hosting services. I realise the audience will not be huge, especially counting my Eastern Europe timezone, but I'll be glad to anyone joining in!

Thanks to anyone who was able to read all that and go down here, I will try to deliver any kind of content shortly after I regain some powers. Hang tight and have a great day 😁
