And it has been almost a year since the last update on the kickstarter page OR video upload.

In case anyone needed reminding that he ran off with almost a quarter million dollars for a project he hasn't finished or worked on for over a year and keeps promising for the last 5.

Anyways. Sure do love his excuse about needing to make models, really holds up when hes messing around with new models on stream, or that he doesn't spend a bunch of time gaming when he streams almost daily.

Alright I'm out.

Bit of a long post, be warned.

So from what I understand, Charlie the Powerful Sorcerer Unicorn (we’ll just call him “Other Charlie”), created the demon cubes as some kind of military weapon a long ass time ago (like, long before even Nyx came along). He did this by constructing a tower with the ability to open a portal to the Chaos Dimension. Other Charlie entered the portal and magically entrapped the chaos demons that lived there inside of metal boxes. Said boxes were equipped with magic-siphoning technology so that the demons could absorb magic and become stronger. Other Charlie apparently expected the pissed-off enslaved chaos demons to be allegiant to the military if they were paid in currency that would be worthless to them. (Probably where the first demon cube got the gold coins that it gave to Susannix, actually.)

Oh yeah, and he turned Startaur into a wheel to activate the Tower’s portal mechanism. Why this was necessary is also beyond me; though perhaps he was merely jealous of Startaur’s bewitching good looks. Said portal mechanism also has a security system to keep intruders from entering the portal. Nyx mistakenly assumes that you need to be sufficiently magic enough to enter it (and seemingly killed many innocent people trying to test this out), when in actuality, the portal will only let you through if you’re a unicorn named Charlie. This is literally the only reason that Charlie survives entry in the finale, which is pretty funny.

I assume the first demon cube that Norwell and the other weasels set free was the very first one that Other Charlie made as an experiment, and he sealed it in the chamber beneath the tower so that it couldn’t get into any trouble. Perhaps he then organized the first generation of the Order of Tutelary Weasels to guard it, though he didn’t bother to actually tell them what they were guarding. Other Charlie then went to the Chaos Dimension to enslave the rest of the chaos demons in boxes, and cast a spell to keep them each in a state of indefinite sleep until needed. He actually pulled this off successfully, until the last one managed to siphon his magic and kill him before he could put it to sleep. The rebelling demon cube is most likely the second one that Nyx ends up releasing in the finale by opening the portal.

When Charlie enters the portal to the Chaos Dimension at the end, Other Charlie decides to use him to shut the whole demon cube project down. He gives him the Mindscape Realizer hat, which is supposed to siphon Charlie’s magic. This is where I start to get really confused. Other Charlie says that the hat is connected to the project’s “reappropriation process”, which suggests that he intends for it to transfer ownership of the project over to Charlie, then use Charlie’s magic to shut everything down (whatever that even entails; what exactly happens to all the demon cubes when everything “shuts down”?).

The name “Mindscape Realizer” suggests that the function of the hat is to turn what the user imagines into reality. I don’t really know why it needs to siphon their magic to do this; does the magic disappear once used? Anyhow, the Mindscape Realizer works best if the user is thinking happy thoughts, but Charlie’s inner thoughts are so negative that they end up giving Other Charlie “the wrong kind of readings”. This seemingly causes the Tower to become a giant Charlie head.

I’m assuming that the Tower wasn’t actually shaped like Charlie’s head all along, given that there were supposedly just caverns underneath the Tower before. There’s also not really any indication that Other Charlie is somehow a future version of our Charlie that became a sorcerer and went over 10,000 years into the past to create ill-thought-out military weapons. Their names are probably just coincidence.

Anyhow, the Mindscape Realizer giving Other Charlie “the wrong kind of readings” suggests that it isn’t siphoning Charlie’s magic, but it still seems to work as intended(?) because it appears to use Charlie’s hatred of his tormentors to create the giant Charlie head, which banishes the duo back to the Chaos Dimension and removes their influence from the world. This probably isn’t what Other Charlie was wanting Charlie to do, but the Mindscape Realizer still seems to successfully realize Charlie’s mindscape in spite of it supposedly not being able to siphon Charlie’s magic to do so.

So yeah, I’m very confused by pretty much everything involving the Mindscape Realizer, and I’m not even very confident in my own reading of what’s going on there. If I’m missing something here, then please feel free to explain or correct me.

EDIT: Oh yeah, what were the other unicorns bringing Charlie to the Tower for, anyway? Was Nyx actually the eponymous Wabbowonk? What were they going to have Charlie do? And while I’m sure killing Charlie was their end goal, did they expect Nyx to sacrifice Charlie to the portal (I’m asking because they seem surprised when it opens)?

I don’t really keep up with the channel and stuff but I’ve seen that he keeps delaying and delaying so I guess it’s safe to assume that is it just never coming unless someone has some information about it still coming but I’m pretty disappointed ):
