Now you might ask, why am I making a mod that still uses Psych Engine when it was archived? Well, that's because the engine was discontinued. Let me explain.

6 months ago on October 15, 2024, 2:16 AM GMT on a Tuesday, Shadow Mario uploaded the final update to the engine as we call it "Psych Engine". What came with it was:

What Shadow Mario also said was he updated the LUA Script API for the engine too, and said that it was the "Final Major Update".

Another update came out on 2025 (January 12), titled "1.0.1", then 1.0.2, 1.0.2h, 1.0.3, then 1.0.4, the final minor update to the engine.

At the end of the update, it said that he was archiving the engine's GitHub in a week. Well, it turns out it was, ending one of the best engine's anybody's used.

A week later (March 31st), the engine was archived.

We like to thank Shadow Mario for making this engine that shaped the FNF modding community, and getting Meme1079 into programming as a whole.
