-# What is kemono-watcher
-On Kemono you can see artist's posts, for the sack of archiving some artist are easy as they post directly to the website and thus kemono itself. But others post links to MEGA, google drive, etc. These cannot be automated for archive programs like hyrdrus, so this program creates a manual way to archive artists and view what posts you have not yet seen.
-
-# Installation
-
-pip install -r requirements.txt
-
-To run, just do python application.py
-
-# How to use
-For example, to watch https://www.patreon.com/shencomix you can use https://www.kemono.party/patreon/user/72813 as a proxy. Enter in the ID and select the website(Pateron) in the left panel and add to subscriptions. You will now see Shen or 72813 appear in the known users section at the bottom of the left input panel. Can select them in the list and hit get selected users. By default, all posts will be known but you can move them around by selecting them and moving them around.
-
-On the right, one can hit update unread posts and all currently unknown posts will be displayed there for all users, and the program will attempt to get all new unknown posts. This does not account for the situation where posts may have been updated past the first page but not the first page as this is probably rare and checking all pages would slow down the program. Otherwise once the list is generated, can select one or many posts and open selected post to open in the standard system web browser.

Hello everyone!!! (happy halloweeeeen!)
So actually, I was thinking about it and I feel bad if you get charged tomorrow, November 1st, while my shop is open!!
I know many of you are planning to purchase something from me, which I so appreciate! Therefore I have decided to pause the November payment. Especially with holiday shopping coming up, I would rather you use your expenses towards that this month!
This being said, that means all of my digital content for November will come to you FREE OF CHARGE! It's my gift to you! Thank you for your support these last few months, and especially your patience! I will let you know when I will be resuming payments again!
Cheers!

Thanks so much for all your support this month!
Reminder that if you were a $15+ pledge during the launch week in July you\u2019ll also receive a sticker sheet.

Here is the August postcard + sticker design for all tiers that are Super Trooper and up ($35+)
I'm probably going to have the monthly postcard tiers screenprinted locally with a print shop I love here!!! (so when you support my small business.... you're also supporting THEIR SMALL BUSINESS!!!!! small business ception...)
Also, I want to test out nice paper... this should be on French Press' speckletone white.. sexy paper...
I will also upload the high-res files for both of these in a separate private post so that you can print as many as you'd like for personal use.
Anywhooo!
Anyone who is in the Super Trooper tiers or higher before end of this month can get this exclusive postcard + sticker! (All physical tiers will ship near the end of the month or beginning of Sept. depending on when you pledged.)
EDIT: Since everyone will be charged for the moment they first join I will be using those funds for August rewards, and pausing the August 1st charge.
-----
hello friends!
thank you SO much for checking out my patreon page, and for your support!!
because I am launching this patreon near the end of July, there will be a charge for when you first join.
i want to give all physical reward tiers who join before August 1st a bonus sticker sheet for this month!
all rewards will be shipped near the end of august to give me time to produce them.
oh! and here is the pin design for the month of August! the country bun visits this month is Venezuela! I wonder what he learns and sees there? I guess we'll have to wait for his letter.
again, thank you SO much for all the love and support! i hope this will be a fun thing for everyone!! during this pandemic it's been difficult to see people or travel, so I want these monthly letters & souvenirs from bun to feel like a warm hug from a friend!

August pin pal club pins are finally finished!!!

Here\u2019s a photo from my manufacturer!!!
I\u2019ll be shipping out parcels through last week of August & beginning of September!
If you have any address changes please send me a message!
Also, please give some time for packages to arrive, as USPS is in a really difficult spot right now.
Thanks so much for all your support this month!
Reminder that if you were a $15+ pledge during the launch week in July you\u2019ll also receive a sticker sheet.
(Also, can you spy the September pin in the back? I wonder what country it could be from?)

Here is the August postcard + sticker design for all tiers that are Super Trooper and up ($35+)
I'm probably going to have the monthly postcard tiers screenprinted locally with a print shop I love here!!! (so when you support my small business.... you're also supporting THEIR SMALL BUSINESS!!!!! small business ception...)
Also, I want to test out nice paper... this should be on French Press' speckletone white.. sexy paper...
I will also upload the high-res files for both of these in a separate private post so that you can print as many as you'd like for personal use.
Anywhooo!
Anyone who is in the Super Trooper tiers or higher before end of this month can get this exclusive postcard + sticker! (All physical tiers will ship near the end of the month or beginning of Sept. depending on when you pledged.)
EDIT: Since everyone will be charged for the moment they first join I will be using those funds for August rewards, and pausing the August 1st charge.
-----
hello friends!
thank you SO much for checking out my patreon page, and for your support!!
because I am launching this patreon near the end of July, there will be a charge for when you first join.
i want to give all physical reward tiers who join before August 1st a bonus sticker sheet for this month!
all rewards will be shipped near the end of august to give me time to produce them.
oh! and here is the pin design for the month of August! the country bun visits this month is Venezuela! I wonder what he learns and sees there? I guess we'll have to wait for his letter.
again, thank you SO much for all the love and support! i hope this will be a fun thing for everyone!! during this pandemic it's been difficult to see people or travel, so I want these monthly letters & souvenirs from bun to feel like a warm hug from a friend!

Community roll.
Badguy wonders why the moon is rising.
He has never seen the moon rise during the day like this.
Especially not sideways.
Oh.
You plummet towards Badguy, wielding your newly crafted MOONPICK.
He throws out a slash.
( You're about this close now. )
Another slash.
( You're pretty much there. )
You land powerfully in front of Badguy.
In classic bad guy fashion, Badguy begins smugly monologuing about how your MOONPICK has been rendered useless.
You bonk him on the head with the MOONHAMMER.
Badguy goes down instantly.
You decide that these 2 artifacts are simply too powerful for the hands of humans.
You have to get rid of them. Put them somewhere where they will never be found.
So you give them to Shen, who almost immediately loses them. That dude has a talent for losing things. When he loses something, it might as well be in the void of space.
All according to plan.
Then, finally, you decide to live out a dream you've had for a while.
You build yourself a dirt hovel.
Badguy has built a significantly more impressive one next to yours and is currently pouting in it.
It's okay, you think.
You'll let Badguy have this one.
You arrive at the STONEJACK'S AXE to find that somebody got to it first.
A strong wind billows through the valley, but the stone tree which once held the axe does not sway, and neither does it's new holder ...
Which is BADGUY. Badguy now has the axe. Or maybe it has him.
In any case, you sense a battle brewing.
Luckily, you have that PICKAXE you swiped from MINER CHARACTER.
And you use it to ...
... \u26a0\ufe0f ESCAPE!! \u26a0\ufe0f
But Badguy is having none of it.
He uses the Stonejack's Axe to slash apart the very air around you
sending you plummeting down!
As you careen towards the earth, you have only one tool, and one option.
You mine. You mine faster and harder than you've ever mined before.
Of course that's not saying much, since you were never much of a miner. The point of reference is 0 here.
But suffice to say, you mine very fast.
In fact, you mine all the way through the planet, to the NIGHTTIME SIDE, where the momentum once again carries you into the sky.
Ah, the moon.
Isn't it beautiful?
Hey peeps,
Thank you for your patience as I haven't been active on here in the past couple of weeks. I wanted to briefly talk about a few things.
---
1) I give up ON promoting the Patreon as hard as I have been on social media. Mind you, I don't give up on the Patreon itself, just on promoting it that hard.
But I feel like I've hit a point of diminishing returns (in terms of bringing in new people thru ads), and it's just not worth if for me to spend like an entire workday on a Patreon ad.
That being said, the amount y'all support me on here ... is to say the least, nothing to sneeze at!! Which brings me to my next point:
---
2) THANK YOU!! For your support on here. A lot of you seem to be willing to support me even when my activity slows down -- you're absolute angels to do that, and it's something I don't really... expect from an audience? Like, it goes against a lot of conventional wisdom? \ud83d\ude05
Also, y'all don't owe me this at all. I see a lot of explanation and apologies in exit surveys and it's like, no... bro.... sis..... h-honey. You do you. I'm not gonna be mad at you for cancelling lmao, for any reason.
---
3) I'm deathly bored of You Are the Guy. I think I just got too up my own ass with lore in it, and once you get too up your own ass with lore, it is difficult to exit the ass.
It's like you're juggling all of these little plot elements you put into play, and just like with juggling, you have to catch every single one. Whether you throw it back into the air for another spin or not is up to you, but you have to at least catch it. If you don't catch them ... well, it just looks clumsy.
And boy did I throw a lot of balls.
It was supposed to be a simple, goofy little series, and I just had to do it. And so as a result, I'm just having trouble putting pen to paper on that series right now. Realistically, my options are:
1) Chaotic Neutral: Take the reigns of The Guy and try to steer the series in some direction.
2) Lawful Good: Take those reigns and bring it to a clean close.
3) Chaotic Evil: Abandon it.
Lmk what you think.
---
4) Lilith
The Guy opts for a Secret 5th Option, which turns out to be ...
You consult a gamefaqs guide in the only way you know how, on your 1996 IBM PC 340 on top of a large hardwood table with a kitchen chair pulled up to it.
You're always finding reasons to pulled out that stinky ole 1996 IBM PC 340.
Absolutely shameless.
Oh hell yeah. HELL yeah.

[ Author's Note ]
This guide is note currently complete as I am stuck on Non-Canonical Eden Level.
If anyone knows how to get through this part, please send me a DM or post it in
the thread which I check daily. I got the axe but can't find what I'm supposed
to use it on.
[ The Stonejack's Axe ]
If you turn to the left on the intersection out of the house, you enter an area
called [ Deepwoods ] -- It's actually a pretty straightforward path through this
area and into the valley on the other side. Some people have written that there
is a chance for an enemy to spawn here (\"tall bear, doesn't like sunlight\"),
though I've yet to encounter this enemy personally.
Getting through [ Deepwoods ] will get you to [ Desolate Valley ], where you can
find [ Stonejack's Axe ] lodged into a tree made of stone near the entrance to
the mountains. Don't tech into Sweaty before pulling out this axe, as that makes
pulling it out of the stone tree an Impossible class skillcheck.
Well, now you know about the Stonejack's Axe, I guess!
To ascertain this, we will have to look deep, deep into the darkest recesses of The Guy's mind. I'm not sure you're ready for this.
Okay, he appears to want to dig a hole.
He is in the hole now. It's not very deep. His intentions are unclear.
He made himself a little hovel. He wants to live in a little hovel. It looks like it might even have a fireplace in it? This is what The Guy wants.
With this new wealth of knowledge, will you still go back to your friends? Or is there anything you wish to do beforehand?

I wanted to make you an offer. Two comics I will never post, and why I'll never post them, in exchange for unlocking the first 11 updates of EDEN Season 1 ( up to them Truffle & Mia getting the radio ) + the first 11 updates of You Are the Guy ( up to us meeting The Mountain Bastard for the first time ) to the Public setting here.
I was just making a patreon ad and trying to cram as many preview panels into it as I could and got to thinking \"dang, I'm really asking potential patrons to take a plunge here into something they don't know anything about. shouldn't I give them a preview?\"
So, this plan is my attempt to do that! Currently I don't see a reason to make it rolling or anything (with more updates being made free as we go), but I guess I'll take y'all's advice on that.
---
Here are the comics I want to offer on this altar.
I never ended up posting this one, because I was worried it'd be misread, and instead I posted this way more verbose one:
Looking at it now, tbh I would've felt better about posting the first cuz it's got more fun artwork, and because the second one strafes a bit too close to just being boring moralization. The We \u2665\ufe0f Haters cake is funny tho.
Here's another:
I had a nagging feeling in the back of my mind about this one, like \"damn, this seems like such an obvious 3-panel, I wonder why nobody made it yet.\"
Well turns out somebody had.
And in classic form, it was KG Green 10 years ago.
It's always KC Green 10 Years Ago. Always.
It's not that I had never seen this comic, but I just didn't have it in mind as I was making mine. Somebody replied with KC's and I was like \"aaah shit\" and deleted it just a few min after posting.
---

So I'm not saying there 100% WON'T be any Patreon stuff while I'm preparing for and doing that, but there might not be, or if there are they might at least be slower than usual.
[2] After October, at the beginning of November, I was also hoping to take a week break. Over the years that I've been doing comics, tbh, I have had trouble even taking weekends. In part this is my own fault cuz I get very distracted and disorganized. It feels like a massive risk for me to be deliberately gone from online for an entire week, but I want to try it. Maybe it will be healthy.

\ud83d\udd25 Rare Season
\ud83d\udcac The youngest season, and their cynical and slightly-goth older sibling.
Community roll.
Badguy wonders why the moon is rising.
He has never seen the moon rise during the day like this.
Especially not sideways.
Oh.
You plummet towards Badguy, wielding your newly crafted MOONPICK.
He throws out a slash.
( You're about this close now. )
Another slash.
( You're pretty much there. )
You land powerfully in front of Badguy.
In classic bad guy fashion, Badguy begins smugly monologuing about how your MOONPICK has been rendered useless.
You bonk him on the head with the MOONHAMMER.
Badguy goes down instantly.
You decide that these 2 artifacts are simply too powerful for the hands of humans.
You have to get rid of them. Put them somewhere where they will never be found.
So you give them to Shen, who almost immediately loses them. That dude has a talent for losing things. When he loses something, it might as well be in the void of space.
All according to plan.
Then, finally, you decide to live out a dream you've had for a while.
You build yourself a dirt hovel.
Badguy has built a significantly more impressive one next to yours and is currently pouting in it.
It's okay, you think.
You'll let Badguy have this one.
You arrive at the STONEJACK'S AXE to find that somebody got to it first.
A strong wind billows through the valley, but the stone tree which once held the axe does not sway, and neither does it's new holder ...
Which is BADGUY. Badguy now has the axe. Or maybe it has him.
In any case, you sense a battle brewing.
Luckily, you have that PICKAXE you swiped from MINER CHARACTER.
And you use it to ...
... \u26a0\ufe0f ESCAPE!! \u26a0\ufe0f
But Badguy is having none of it.
He uses the Stonejack's Axe to slash apart the very air around you
sending you plummeting down!
As you careen towards the earth, you have only one tool, and one option.
You mine. You mine faster and harder than you've ever mined before.
Of course that's not saying much, since you were never much of a miner. The point of reference is 0 here.
But suffice to say, you mine very fast.
In fact, you mine all the way through the planet, to the NIGHTTIME SIDE, where the momentum once again carries you into the sky.
Ah, the moon.
Isn't it beautiful?
Hey peeps,
Thank you for your patience as I haven't been active on here in the past couple of weeks. I wanted to briefly talk about a few things.
---
1) I give up ON promoting the Patreon as hard as I have been on social media. Mind you, I don't give up on the Patreon itself, just on promoting it that hard.
But I feel like I've hit a point of diminishing returns (in terms of bringing in new people thru ads), and it's just not worth if for me to spend like an entire workday on a Patreon ad.
That being said, the amount y'all support me on here ... is to say the least, nothing to sneeze at!! Which brings me to my next point:
---
2) THANK YOU!! For your support on here. A lot of you seem to be willing to support me even when my activity slows down -- you're absolute angels to do that, and it's something I don't really... expect from an audience? Like, it goes against a lot of conventional wisdom? \ud83d\ude05
Also, y'all don't owe me this at all. I see a lot of explanation and apologies in exit surveys and it's like, no... bro.... sis..... h-honey. You do you. I'm not gonna be mad at you for cancelling lmao, for any reason.
---
3) I'm deathly bored of You Are the Guy. I think I just got too up my own ass with lore in it, and once you get too up your own ass with lore, it is difficult to exit the ass.
It's like you're juggling all of these little plot elements you put into play, and just like with juggling, you have to catch every single one. Whether you throw it back into the air for another spin or not is up to you, but you have to at least catch it. If you don't catch them ... well, it just looks clumsy.
And boy did I throw a lot of balls.
It was supposed to be a simple, goofy little series, and I just had to do it. And so as a result, I'm just having trouble putting pen to paper on that series right now. Realistically, my options are:
1) Chaotic Neutral: Take the reigns of The Guy and try to steer the series in some direction.
2) Lawful Good: Take those reigns and bring it to a clean close.
3) Chaotic Evil: Abandon it.
Lmk what you think.
---
4) Lilith
The Guy opts for a Secret 5th Option, which turns out to be ...
You consult a gamefaqs guide in the only way you know how, on your 1996 IBM PC 340 on top of a large hardwood table with a kitchen chair pulled up to it.
You're always finding reasons to pulled out that stinky ole 1996 IBM PC 340.
Absolutely shameless.
Oh hell yeah. HELL yeah.

[ Author's Note ]
This guide is note currently complete as I am stuck on Non-Canonical Eden Level.
If anyone knows how to get through this part, please send me a DM or post it in
the thread which I check daily. I got the axe but can't find what I'm supposed
to use it on.
[ The Stonejack's Axe ]
If you turn to the left on the intersection out of the house, you enter an area
called [ Deepwoods ] -- It's actually a pretty straightforward path through this
area and into the valley on the other side. Some people have written that there
is a chance for an enemy to spawn here (\"tall bear, doesn't like sunlight\"),
though I've yet to encounter this enemy personally.
Getting through [ Deepwoods ] will get you to [ Desolate Valley ], where you can
find [ Stonejack's Axe ] lodged into a tree made of stone near the entrance to
the mountains. Don't tech into Sweaty before pulling out this axe, as that makes
pulling it out of the stone tree an Impossible class skillcheck.
Well, now you know about the Stonejack's Axe, I guess!
To ascertain this, we will have to look deep, deep into the darkest recesses of The Guy's mind. I'm not sure you're ready for this.
Okay, he appears to want to dig a hole.
He is in the hole now. It's not very deep. His intentions are unclear.
He made himself a little hovel. He wants to live in a little hovel. It looks like it might even have a fireplace in it? This is what The Guy wants.
With this new wealth of knowledge, will you still go back to your friends? Or is there anything you wish to do beforehand?

I wanted to make you an offer. Two comics I will never post, and why I'll never post them, in exchange for unlocking the first 11 updates of EDEN Season 1 ( up to them Truffle & Mia getting the radio ) + the first 11 updates of You Are the Guy ( up to us meeting The Mountain Bastard for the first time ) to the Public setting here.
I was just making a patreon ad and trying to cram as many preview panels into it as I could and got to thinking \"dang, I'm really asking potential patrons to take a plunge here into something they don't know anything about. shouldn't I give them a preview?\"
So, this plan is my attempt to do that! Currently I don't see a reason to make it rolling or anything (with more updates being made free as we go), but I guess I'll take y'all's advice on that.
---
Here are the comics I want to offer on this altar.
I never ended up posting this one, because I was worried it'd be misread, and instead I posted this way more verbose one:
Looking at it now, tbh I would've felt better about posting the first cuz it's got more fun artwork, and because the second one strafes a bit too close to just being boring moralization. The We \u2665\ufe0f Haters cake is funny tho.
Here's another:
I had a nagging feeling in the back of my mind about this one, like \"damn, this seems like such an obvious 3-panel, I wonder why nobody made it yet.\"
Well turns out somebody had.
And in classic form, it was KG Green 10 years ago.
It's always KC Green 10 Years Ago. Always.
It's not that I had never seen this comic, but I just didn't have it in mind as I was making mine. Somebody replied with KC's and I was like \"aaah shit\" and deleted it just a few min after posting.
---
So here's that. What do you think?
I know I've just handed you a CD \"for free\" and then asked for $5 for it like a hustler in the New York subway, but in this case you are actually free to decline -- if the overwhelming response is \"no, keep it completely locked because that's how it was pitched to us,\" I will respect that.

Those take... so much work. \ud83d\ude2d You'd think \"it's just a picture a day, how long could it take,\" but lemme tell ya, I think that every year and every year I'm wrong.
So I'm not saying there 100% WON'T be any Patreon stuff while I'm preparing for and doing that, but there might not be, or if there are they might at least be slower than usual.
[2] After October, at the beginning of November, I was also hoping to take a week break. Over the years that I've been doing comics, tbh, I have had trouble even taking weekends. In part this is my own fault cuz I get very distracted and disorganized. It feels like a massive risk for me to be deliberately gone from online for an entire week, but I want to try it. Maybe it will be healthy.

Meanwhile, downstairs, Mouse Demigod has totally fallen for your trick, and is drinking the potion! A classic blunder.
His class is being randomized! What will it be?? WHAT WILL IT BE???
Well, that's random numbers for you.
Mouse Paladin makes his way upstairs, but he's pretty harmless now. Hey, wasn't there a purple guy with you? Where is that guy?

The mouse has arrived. Let's see what's going on upstairs.

Badguy wonders why the moon is rising.
He has never seen the moon rise during the day like this.
Especially not sideways.
Oh.
You plummet towards Badguy, wielding your newly crafted MOONPICK.
He throws out a slash.
( You're about this close now. )
Another slash.
( You're pretty much there. )
You land powerfully in front of Badguy.
In classic bad guy fashion, Badguy begins smugly monologuing about how your MOONPICK has been rendered useless.
You bonk him on the head with the MOONHAMMER.
Badguy goes down instantly.
You decide that these 2 artifacts are simply too powerful for the hands of humans.
You have to get rid of them. Put them somewhere where they will never be found.
So you give them to Shen, who almost immediately loses them. That dude has a talent for losing things. When he loses something, it might as well be in the void of space.
All according to plan.
Then, finally, you decide to live out a dream you've had for a while.
You build yourself a dirt hovel.
Badguy has built a significantly more impressive one next to yours and is currently pouting in it.
It's okay, you think.
You'll let Badguy have this one.
You arrive at the STONEJACK'S AXE to find that somebody got to it first.
A strong wind billows through the valley, but the stone tree which once held the axe does not sway, and neither does it's new holder ...
Which is BADGUY. Badguy now has the axe. Or maybe it has him.
In any case, you sense a battle brewing.
Luckily, you have that PICKAXE you swiped from MINER CHARACTER.
And you use it to ...
... ⚠️ ESCAPE!! ⚠️
But Badguy is having none of it.
He uses the Stonejack's Axe to slash apart the very air around you
sending you plummeting down!
As you careen towards the earth, you have only one tool, and one option.
You mine. You mine faster and harder than you've ever mined before.
Of course that's not saying much, since you were never much of a miner. The point of reference is 0 here.
But suffice to say, you mine very fast.
In fact, you mine all the way through the planet, to the NIGHTTIME SIDE, where the momentum once again carries you into the sky.
Ah, the moon.
Isn't it beautiful?
Hey peeps,
Thank you for your patience as I haven't been active on here in the past couple of weeks. I wanted to briefly talk about a few things.
---
1) I give up ON promoting the Patreon as hard as I have been on social media. Mind you, I don't give up on the Patreon itself, just on promoting it that hard.
But I feel like I've hit a point of diminishing returns (in terms of bringing in new people thru ads), and it's just not worth if for me to spend like an entire workday on a Patreon ad.
That being said, the amount y'all support me on here ... is to say the least, nothing to sneeze at!! Which brings me to my next point:
---
2) THANK YOU!! For your support on here. A lot of you seem to be willing to support me even when my activity slows down -- you're absolute angels to do that, and it's something I don't really... expect from an audience? Like, it goes against a lot of conventional wisdom? 😅
Also, y'all don't owe me this at all. I see a lot of explanation and apologies in exit surveys and it's like, no... bro.... sis..... h-honey. You do you. I'm not gonna be mad at you for cancelling lmao, for any reason.
---
3) I'm deathly bored of You Are the Guy. I think I just got too up my own ass with lore in it, and once you get too up your own ass with lore, it is difficult to exit the ass.
It's like you're juggling all of these little plot elements you put into play, and just like with juggling, you have to catch every single one. Whether you throw it back into the air for another spin or not is up to you, but you have to at least catch it. If you don't catch them ... well, it just looks clumsy.
And boy did I throw a lot of balls.
It was supposed to be a simple, goofy little series, and I just had to do it. And so as a result, I'm just having trouble putting pen to paper on that series right now. Realistically, my options are:
1) Chaotic Neutral: Take the reigns of The Guy and try to steer the series in some direction.
2) Lawful Good: Take those reigns and bring it to a clean close.
3) Chaotic Evil: Abandon it.
Lmk what you think.

The Guy opts for a Secret 5th Option, which turns out to be ...
You consult a gamefaqs guide in the only way you know how, on your 1996 IBM PC 340 on top of a large hardwood table with a kitchen chair pulled up to it.
You're always finding reasons to pulled out that stinky ole 1996 IBM PC 340.
Absolutely shameless.
Oh hell yeah. HELL yeah.

[ Author's Note ]
This guide is note currently complete as I am stuck on Non-Canonical Eden Level.
If anyone knows how to get through this part, please send me a DM or post it in
the thread which I check daily. I got the axe but can't find what I'm supposed
to use it on.
[ The Stonejack's Axe ]
If you turn to the left on the intersection out of the house, you enter an area
called [ Deepwoods ] -- It's actually a pretty straightforward path through this
area and into the valley on the other side. Some people have written that there
is a chance for an enemy to spawn here (\"tall bear, doesn't like sunlight\"),
though I've yet to encounter this enemy personally.
Getting through [ Deepwoods ] will get you to [ Desolate Valley ], where you can
find [ Stonejack's Axe ] lodged into a tree made of stone near the entrance to
the mountains. Don't tech into Sweaty before pulling out this axe, as that makes
pulling it out of the stone tree an Impossible class skillcheck.
Well, now you know about the Stonejack's Axe, I guess!
To ascertain this, we will have to look deep, deep into the darkest recesses of The Guy's mind. I'm not sure you're ready for this.
Okay, he appears to want to dig a hole.
He is in the hole now. It's not very deep. His intentions are unclear.
He made himself a little hovel. He wants to live in a little hovel. It looks like it might even have a fireplace in it? This is what The Guy wants.
With this new wealth of knowledge, will you still go back to your friends? Or is there anything you wish to do beforehand?

Community roll.
Badguy wonders why the moon is rising.
He has never seen the moon rise during the day like this.
Especially not sideways.
Oh.
You plummet towards Badguy, wielding your newly crafted MOONPICK.
He throws out a slash.
( You're about this close now. )
Another slash.
( You're pretty much there. )
You land powerfully in front of Badguy.
In classic bad guy fashion, Badguy begins smugly monologuing about how your MOONPICK has been rendered useless.
You bonk him on the head with the MOONHAMMER.
Badguy goes down instantly.
You decide that these 2 artifacts are simply too powerful for the hands of humans.
You have to get rid of them. Put them somewhere where they will never be found.
So you give them to Shen, who almost immediately loses them. That dude has a talent for losing things. When he loses something, it might as well be in the void of space.
All according to plan.
Then, finally, you decide to live out a dream you've had for a while.
You build yourself a dirt hovel.
Badguy has built a significantly more impressive one next to yours and is currently pouting in it.
It's okay, you think.
You'll let Badguy have this one.
You arrive at the STONEJACK'S AXE to find that somebody got to it first.
A strong wind billows through the valley, but the stone tree which once held the axe does not sway, and neither does it's new holder ...
Which is BADGUY. Badguy now has the axe. Or maybe it has him.
In any case, you sense a battle brewing.
Luckily, you have that PICKAXE you swiped from MINER CHARACTER.
And you use it to ...
... ⚠️ ESCAPE!! ⚠️
But Badguy is having none of it.
He uses the Stonejack's Axe to slash apart the very air around you
sending you plummeting down!
As you careen towards the earth, you have only one tool, and one option.
You mine. You mine faster and harder than you've ever mined before.
Of course that's not saying much, since you were never much of a miner. The point of reference is 0 here.
But suffice to say, you mine very fast.
In fact, you mine all the way through the planet, to the NIGHTTIME SIDE, where the momentum once again carries you into the sky.
Ah, the moon.
Isn't it beautiful?
Hey peeps,
Thank you for your patience as I haven't been active on here in the past couple of weeks. I wanted to briefly talk about a few things.
---
1) I give up ON promoting the Patreon as hard as I have been on social media. Mind you, I don't give up on the Patreon itself, just on promoting it that hard.
But I feel like I've hit a point of diminishing returns (in terms of bringing in new people thru ads), and it's just not worth if for me to spend like an entire workday on a Patreon ad.
That being said, the amount y'all support me on here ... is to say the least, nothing to sneeze at!! Which brings me to my next point:
---
2) THANK YOU!! For your support on here. A lot of you seem to be willing to support me even when my activity slows down -- you're absolute angels to do that, and it's something I don't really... expect from an audience? Like, it goes against a lot of conventional wisdom? 😅
Also, y'all don't owe me this at all. I see a lot of explanation and apologies in exit surveys and it's like, no... bro.... sis..... h-honey. You do you. I'm not gonna be mad at you for cancelling lmao, for any reason.
---
3) I'm deathly bored of You Are the Guy. I think I just got too up my own ass with lore in it, and once you get too up your own ass with lore, it is difficult to exit the ass.
It's like you're juggling all of these little plot elements you put into play, and just like with juggling, you have to catch every single one. Whether you throw it back into the air for another spin or not is up to you, but you have to at least catch it. If you don't catch them ... well, it just looks clumsy.
And boy did I throw a lot of balls.
It was supposed to be a simple, goofy little series, and I just had to do it. And so as a result, I'm just having trouble putting pen to paper on that series right now. Realistically, my options are:

I wanted to make you an offer. Two comics I will never post, and why I'll never post them, in exchange for unlocking the first 11 updates of EDEN Season 1 ( up to them Truffle & Mia getting the radio ) + the first 11 updates of You Are the Guy ( up to us meeting The Mountain Bastard for the first time ) to the Public setting here.
I was just making a patreon ad and trying to cram as many preview panels into it as I could and got to thinking \"dang, I'm really asking potential patrons to take a plunge here into something they don't know anything about. shouldn't I give them a preview?\"
So, this plan is my attempt to do that! Currently I don't see a reason to make it rolling or anything (with more updates being made free as we go), but I guess I'll take y'all's advice on that.
---
Here are the comics I want to offer on this altar.
I never ended up posting this one, because I was worried it'd be misread, and instead I posted this way more verbose one:
Looking at it now, tbh I would've felt better about posting the first cuz it's got more fun artwork, and because the second one strafes a bit too close to just being boring moralization. The We ♥️ Haters cake is funny tho.
Here's another:
I had a nagging feeling in the back of my mind about this one, like \"damn, this seems like such an obvious 3-panel, I wonder why nobody made it yet.\"
Well turns out somebody had.
And in classic form, it was KG Green 10 years ago.
It's always KC Green 10 Years Ago. Always.
It's not that I had never seen this comic, but I just didn't have it in mind as I was making mine. Somebody replied with KC's and I was like \"aaah shit\" and deleted it just a few min after posting.
---
So here's that. What do you think?
I know I've just handed you a CD \"for free\" and then asked for $5 for it like a hustler in the New York subway, but in this case you are actually free to decline -- if the overwhelming response is \"no, keep it completely locked because that's how it was pitched to us,\" I will respect that.

[1] gacha distribution (that's happening tonight, so check your inbox soon if you're in that tier!) and

Those take... so much work. 😭 You'd think \"it's just a picture a day, how long could it take,\" but lemme tell ya, I think that every year and every year I'm wrong.
So I'm not saying there 100% WON'T be any Patreon stuff while I'm preparing for and doing that, but there might not be, or if there are they might at least be slower than usual.
[2] After October, at the beginning of November, I was also hoping to take a week break. Over the years that I've been doing comics, tbh, I have had trouble even taking weekends. In part this is my own fault cuz I get very distracted and disorganized. It feels like a massive risk for me to be deliberately gone from online for an entire week, but I want to try it. Maybe it will be healthy.
Thank you for reading! Please enjoy this here gacha roll. :]

Hey, patrons that joined this week, would you be okay with me using your names in a \"thank you new patrons!\" thing at the end of my next patreon comic? I'm asking to see how people feel about it in general, as I know some of you use your real names on here, and don't wanna violate anyone's privacy. \u270c\ufe0f Maybe like first names only? Does anyone know what the etiquette is on this?

Catalogue of Increasingly Normal Stories - RIP
I do unfortunately have to start bringing Catalogue of Increasingly Normal Stories (or \"increasingly normal\", as I've been tagging it) to a close. It was probably the biggest + most organized non-just-random-comics project I've ever done, and I'm quite proud of it actually.
Buuut it is also immensely stressful for me. These past few weeks, I've been obliterating myself trying to get those done. Not to mention, the numbers look grimmer than the stories themselves. \ud83d\ude05 I think I'm always gonna wanna do weird, longer-form, creepy stories, but it seems like maybe this forced approach just isn't working for me or for many of you readers.
SHOUT OUT TO THE PEOPLE THAT LIKE THEM THOUGH! I see you.
After the two upcoming ones that I already have slated, I'm gonna finish it off with a bang with one of I think the best stories I've ever written.

I'll do it in a simple Q&A style.
A: While the gacha system I've built over the past few months is quite cool, the $8.79 NICE + Gacha gacha tier is mainly for people who just want to give me even more support. Make no mistake, the $4.69 NICE tier is the big content tier for this Patreon -- The gacha system is just something a little extra I wanted to make for people who support me at higher levels.
A: Every 2 weeks or so, I will message you here on Patreon. I'll message you with a set of 3 (or 4 in some cases??) gacha rolls that have been rolled for you specifically.
\u26a0\ufe0f I can't sent images directly through Patreon messaging, and have to rely on links. However, here I'll include the images too just for illustrative purposes, and so this post isn't a massive text wall. \u26a0\ufe0f
That's being said, here is an example of the messages I sent out just today:
--- \u2702 --- \u2702 --- \u2702 ---
Hi Example Roll! This set of gacha rolls is generated automatically \ud83e\udd16 but delivered personally. \ud83d\udce8\u270c( So if you have any comments or questions, I'm here to respond to them! )
\ud83d\udcf0 News \ud83d\udcf0
\u2022 New rarity type: SECRET. Very rare, can only be acquired from specific 3-roll type combinations.
\u2022 6 new possible rolls, including 3 of standard rarity + 3 in the Secret category.
\u2022 Did a lot of refactoring and background code.
\u2022 Not that you'll ever see it...
\u2022 B-baka...

\ud83d\udcac Truly the plain bagel of gacha rolls.
A: Literally nothing. There is no gameplay.
There is only roll.
There is only roll.
A: Any character from any comic I've ever made, including Shen Comix, Bluechair, any side story like EDEN or My Life as a Skeleton! or The Little Firefighter or the doors series, Live With Yourself. Literally anything goes, this is like Shen Comix smash bros.
A: At the time of this writing, 36 of various rarities.
A: Nope! You'll absolutely still get the gacha rolls at that tier, and don't need to upgrade. You could say you got \"rolled into\" the gacha tier, even. \ud83d\ude09
So, hopefully that clears some things up, but if I missed anything or you have any additional questions, ask away in the comments and I'll answer them personally and possibly add them to the Q&A.
Also, many people don't know that Patreon has a direct messaging system. So if you're in that tier and you didn't know about it, check your DMs! You probably have like a million rolls there waiting for you lmao.

Iteration 02. Aside form the lighting changes (which a hue/saturation/brightness adjustment layer did most of the work on), I decided to make the pupils big instead of small. You know how when a cat is about to pounce, its pupils get really big?
Iteration 03, the final that you see up top. A little bit more leaves. Some darker areas (shadows right under trees), some lighter areas (additional yellow highlights on eyes). The last 10%.

Hey y'all, I'd like to take a break from creating EDEN. I'm just really tired, and between this, the new gacha thing, and Bluechair, my output of comics on social media has crawled to a standstill. So let's call this the end of Season 1. If EDEN is what you're here and you're out, absolutely no hard feelings, and if you wanna stick around, you'll be getting early access with commentary to all comics, and those of you in the gacha tier will be getting gacha rolls.
Thanks! \u270c\ufe0f

Not today buddy. We've only got 2 stories left so it's time for the RAILROAD.
We're gonna start off with Demolition, a story about what happens when you demolish a haunted house. Then we'll do Patching, a story about artificial intelligence.
Patching is the one I want to do last, so that leaves on Demolition for 2nd-to-last, but Demolition is also quite good imo. See you there!

Hey, patrons that joined this week, would you be okay with me using your names in a \"thank you new patrons!\" thing at the end of my next patreon comic?

Catalogue of Increasingly Normal Stories - RIP
I do unfortunately have to start bringing Catalogue of Increasingly Normal Stories (or \"increasingly normal\", as I've been tagging it) to a close. It was probably the biggest + most organized non-just-random-comics project I've ever done, and I'm quite proud of it actually.
Buuut it is also immensely stressful for me. These past few weeks, I've been obliterating myself trying to get those done. Not to mention, the numbers look grimmer than the stories themselves. \ud83d\ude05 I think I'm always gonna wanna do weird, longer-form, creepy stories, but it seems like maybe this forced approach just isn't working for me or for many of you readers.
SHOUT OUT TO THE PEOPLE THAT LIKE THEM THOUGH! I see you.
After the two upcoming ones that I already have slated, I'm gonna finish it off with a bang with one of I think the best stories I've ever written.

Also, something I forgot to mention in the audio log: If you're one of those people who forgot they left their subscription on, keep in mind it charges on the first of the month! Which is the day after tomorrow, 07/01.
So, as much as I will happily gobble up your dollars, don't forget to cancel it if you mean to, and if you do forget and are reading this like a week later, feel free to DM me & I can refund it, it's actually pretty easy on here. \ud83d\udc4d

I'll do it in a simple Q&A style.
A: While the gacha system I've built over the past few months is quite cool, the $8.79 NICE + Gacha gacha tier is mainly for people who just want to give me even more support. Make no mistake, the $4.69 NICE tier is the big content tier for this Patreon -- The gacha system is just something a little extra I wanted to make for people who support me at higher levels.
A: Every 2 weeks or so, I will message you here on Patreon. I'll message you with a set of 3 (or 4 in some cases??) gacha rolls that have been rolled for you specifically.
\u26a0\ufe0f I can't sent images directly through Patreon messaging, and have to rely on links. However, here I'll include the images too just for illustrative purposes, and so this post isn't a massive text wall. \u26a0\ufe0f
That's being said, here is an example of the messages I sent out just today:
--- \u2702 --- \u2702 --- \u2702 ---
Hi Example Roll! This set of gacha rolls is generated automatically \ud83e\udd16 but delivered personally. \ud83d\udce8\u270c( So if you have any comments or questions, I'm here to respond to them! )
\ud83d\udcf0 News \ud83d\udcf0
\u2022 New rarity type: SECRET. Very rare, can only be acquired from specific 3-roll type combinations.
\u2022 6 new possible rolls, including 3 of standard rarity + 3 in the Secret category.
\u2022 Did a lot of refactoring and background code.
\u2022 Not that you'll ever see it...

\ud83d\udcac Truly the plain bagel of gacha rolls.
A: Literally nothing. There is no gameplay.
There is only roll.
There is only roll.
A: Any character from any comic I've ever made, including Shen Comix, Bluechair, any side story like EDEN or My Life as a Skeleton! or The Little Firefighter or the doors series, Live With Yourself. Literally anything goes, this is like Shen Comix smash bros.
A: At the time of this writing, 36 of various rarities.
A: Nope! You'll absolutely still get the gacha rolls at that tier, and don't need to upgrade. You could say you got \"rolled into\" the gacha tier, even. \ud83d\ude09
So, hopefully that clears some things up, but if I missed anything or you have any additional questions, ask away in the comments and I'll answer them personally and possibly add them to the Q&A.
Also, many people don't know that Patreon has a direct messaging system. So if you're in that tier and you didn't know about it, check your DMs! You probably have like a million rolls there waiting for you lmao.

Lemme show you! Even though this doesn't have a whole lot of rendering, I still went through a few iterations.
Iteration 01. After this, I copied the layer, and continued working on the copy. This was actually originally gonna be a normal-sized guy just covered in leaves, but at the last second I thought \"what if a giant head\" and decided that that was scarier.
Iteration 02. Aside form the lighting changes (which a hue/saturation/brightness adjustment layer did most of the work on), I decided to make the pupils big instead of small. You know how when a cat is about to pounce, its pupils get really big?
Iteration 03, the final that you see up top. A little bit more leaves. Some darker areas (shadows right under trees), some lighter areas (additional yellow highlights on eyes). The last 10%. At this stage I'm always nervous that I'm gonna ruin it somehow, but like, balls to it. It's my drawing, I'll ruin it all I want lmao

Anyhow, I'd like to offer you an opportunity, to choose your destiny ... and ask something of you too. Remember these?
I would like to declassify one of them, so that they may be viewed by the unsuspecting public. Which one should I declassify? The Moon Skeleton, 3 Minutes, or The Tall Grave? I'll leave some buttons and whatnot for you to decide below. Heaven knows, these newfangled personal computer machines, to me, are the greatest mystery of all.
Now, that's enough looking back. Time to look forward. Which of these stories would you like to hear next?
Decide carefully. For who knows. Whatever door you walk through here, may just be your last ....

You have found who you're looking for.
You've found the GREEN FRIEND. To make good on your promise, of course, you have to bring them to the fairy for calibration. Whether you do that immediately or wait a bit is up to you. We'll assume you can retrace your steps back out of Deephouse pretty easily.

Hey y'all, I'd like to take a break from creating EDEN. I'm just really tired, and between this, the new gacha thing, and Bluechair, my output of comics on social media has crawled to a standstill. So let's call this the end of Season 1. If EDEN is what you're here and you're out, absolutely no hard feelings, and if you wanna stick around, you'll be getting early access with commentary to all comics, and those of you in the gacha tier will be getting gacha rolls.
Thanks! \u270c\ufe0f
