Always remember this speech by Samwise Gamgee

Sam: “It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo, the ones that really mattered. 

Full of darkness and danger they were, and sometimes you didn’t want to know the end, because how could the end be happy? 

How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? 

But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. 

A new day will come, and when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. 

Those were the stories that stayed with you, that meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. 

But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. 

Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back. 

Only they didn’t, because they were holding on to something.

Frodo: What are we holding onto, Sam?

Sam : That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.

Hi this is such an awesome project and I’m so excited to see it come to life! I know the other rewrites have kind of slowed down a little, but it seems like this one is developing pretty quickly. Do you guys have a large development team and how did you guys find each other to work on it?

Our team is about 9 people in total right now, and if I'm being incredibly honest there are two main developers on the server side.

The reason this is progressing much faster than the other remakes, is both FABC and WTP were created when the game's source dump wasn't widely available, and both attempted to recreate the game in a different engine (FABC used/s Construct 2, while WTP uses Phaser.io).

This was originally what we were doing as well (using Godot), until a friend of mine went "why not just make a server to work with the client dump you have?"

That led to our first dev vlog, then led to our partnership with Sunrise which has an actual working OTP (Disney Protocol) server that we've been able to use as a base and just fill in the Pixie Hollow specific stuff!

My favorite's are driving me up the wall with love so I decided to do a screenshot redraw of them! (The pic might be a bit blurry since the drawing was apparently too big, sorry about that.)

Anyway. This took forever, but I love them so I pushed through it!! :)

#one of the otters at the local aquarium sleeps with his tail in his mouth. It's very cute and charming #but when there was a stressful time (introduction to a new otter) he started chomping down on his tail and got an injury #and I think about that as like. The things that become chewing-on-yourself behaviors often start as something you do to self-soothe. #You get more stressed you do the soothing thing more frantically it starts to hurt you and you don't necessarily notice. #If you like to reassure yourself by thinking through outcomes and possibilities. The chomped-down version is a spiral of overthinking. #and you think maybe it isn't calming you down because you haven't thought through everything yet - ! #stop chomping. (via @screambirdscreaming)

#this is a good way to put what I’ve identified as pacing your cage thoughts #your friends don’t hate you. you are pacing your cage #you’re not boring or stupid. you’re gnawing at the bars of your enclosure (via @saintaurum)

#something that helped me a lot was a psych lecture that said that thoughts are supposed to be innovative #so if you're going in circles something's wrong (via @your-url-is-problematic)

#it takes some practice but you can learn to recognise when your brain is making grindy trash compactor noises (via @scholarsscribbles)

#no but this is literally why thought crime is bs #our brains are wired to make associations & love to run 'what if' scenarios & stretch our imaginations #and sometimes that can lead our thoughts into some territory that has us pause & go WTF #the important thing is to learn to ride out your thoughts without judgement #and to sometimes gently redirect them when we're stuck on thoughts that are upsetting or unnecessarily negative #it's also worth noting that understimulated brains will find a way to occupy themselves #so it's good to do things with your brain that give it something else to think about - read or craft or write or spend time with loved ones (via @lizard-business)

I think part of the reason why we feel so sad is that we're too far away from raw, numinous experiences. Like you know that post with a picture of the unpolluted night sky where people are reacting in terrified awe not realizing that's what the stars really look like?

I think it's like. You need vivid experiences that can't be easily repeated. You need elemental things. I don't mean this in a crunchy hippie just-try-yoga way I mean this in a way that's like...we're inside all the time and most things we experience are scheduled ahead of time. When there are sidewalks, we follow them, and there's always some boring place to go. You need things that no one has any control over and that no one can sell for money.

You need to be outside in a storm and see lightning strike very close to you. You need to meet a wild creature and have to stand very still and almost not even breathe and watch before it vanishes. You need to be alone somewhere very big. You need to go to a place because it looks interesting and be at the wrong place at the wrong time. You need to climb over a fence instead of going in by the gate. You need to hear the exploding sound of a huge flock of birds flying. You need to watch live theater performed by kids on a low budget. You need to be lost somewhere. You need to be barefoot somewhere. You need to sing with other people who are singing. You need to get soaking wet with all of your clothes on and come inside shivering.
