PLEASE STAND BY.

this year has been, for the majority part, depressing and exhausting.

winter depression has set in before we had a chance to catch our breath after the veritable whirlwind of the last few months. we haven't been posting monthly updates because we haven't had a whole lot to show.

all our best-laid plans seem to go to complete shit - so.. whatever we said we'd have done by the end of this year, expect at some point in the coming months. items we're gazing longingly at with no energy to pursue include a large site update and forays into music. there are also several projects we'd like to finish up and publish, including a TTT map and second cobalt core ship, which we've probably posted about at some point previously.

we also contributed to a freeze tag map for team fortress 2. this is our last project for that game. the workshop seems to have become much more hostile in the few years since Crasher.

we've recently said hello to our fifth up here.

we still really miss cohost.

even when we're unable to muster much energy for things, we're still somewhat abuzz refining ideas. so many ideas. so much fire within, threatening to burn us up during times like this.

going forward, we want to use this blog to talk more about.. y'know, things. stuff. more than just our creative output - things as we're interested in them, instead of a monthly bulletin. that sounds fun, right? give us your thoughts, if you want - email's always open, check the linkpage.

thanks for checking in, and our deep gratitude to the folks still supporting us on ko-fi despite.. all this. you damned saints.
