Entering the Third Act + 400k Subs & Minecraft Server
🕑 Added 2020-11-22 23:21:17 +0000 UTCHey Patrons,
A good amount of progress has been made on Story 0. The animation is 57% done overall! Story wise, the animation is just entering its third act, so there will be non-stop action from here on out. This also means that the most difficult (techincal) scenes in the production will be confronted. I'm excited to work hard over the holidays on these challenging scenes, because they are a big reason for why I do art.
During one of the livestreams, someone asked me if I had a different idea for the animation. I did! The original idea for the start of Gildedguy's story was going to take place outdoors, along a neighborhood street. GG would have to compete against a mechanical monster using paint. It was originally to be a John Henry-like story of Man vs Machine. It would've involved incredible amounts of colorful paint.
400,000 YouTube Subscribers
Today the YouTube channel has achieved 400,000 subscribers on YouTube. It is great to have so many people around the world following my animations. Thank you Patrons for keeping me fed and housed throughout all of this. YouTube revenue is still not quite sustainable, but we're making progress as I work with independent artists!
Official Gildedguy Minecraft Server
In celebration of the recent milestone, I'm happy to unveil the official Gildedguy Minecraft Server to the public. The map has been a labor of love by community members Unibrine, Rei, and Linuxydable for the past month. Features:
- 24/7 Live Server (see the map update in real time here!)
- Up to 200 concurrent players (our record so far is about 80)
- Main Hub Town recreation of Aegis Town from Story 5, including a miniature Gildedguy's house.
- Huge free to construct/survive map 20k x 20k where players are able to claim/ build their own spaces.
If you have a copy of Minecraft (who doesn't these days?), please hop in and look around!
= Connection Info - Supports both Java & Bedrock! =
► Java IP : mc.gildedguy.com

That is all I have to report for now. Since the animation is entering heavy spoiler territory, you may find that updates will be more community focused. But do know that myself and the team are working very hard to get a good origin story to you all early next year.
Thanks for your support!
