Welcome to my Once-In-A-Few-Months Channel Update! 🎉🗿
Hey everyone, since it's been about 3 months (as of writing this) since my last community post, and seeing as I don't use these too often, I figured now would be a great time to just give you guys some updates on a couple things, regarding stuff such as LIMBO Progress, my (totally cool) Upload Schedule, and other stuff if needed.
Firstly, lets talk a bit about LIMBO progression, because I am very much aware that it's been several months since new progress from 0, but theres a few reasons for that. The most prominent reason for this is because of my lack of motivation to constantly play it. Now, don't get me wrong, I still love Limbo for sure, It's a great level imo, but unlike most other players going for these kinds of levels, my play sessions are typically like 1 hour at most, rather than the more standardized 2-3 hour sessions for levels of this difficulty, just so they arent staggered on for too long, but because of my session time, I struggle to progress far in the level (for the most part, I did get 51% like a couple weeks ago lmao). Anyways, my next reason is a much more straight forward reason, and it's simply because life continues to get busy, and I'm in a position where life is going quite good, but It does require me to focus on other things which are (in my opinion) far more important than Geometry Dash tbh.
Next, lets talk about my very wacky but totally epic upload schedule which I currently stand by. I really only wanted to talk to you guys about this topic because I wanted to clear up any confusion/assumptions about anything going on if I don't upload in a certain period of time, whether thats a week, two weeks, or even a month. Just to clear the air, I am NOT in any form losing motivation to upload, I enjoy doing this as a hobby, and I'm so glad I have quite a (starting to be) large community to watch these amazing levels I feel like showcasing. I typically upload only whenever I feel like it due to the fact that I prefer uploading levels I personally like a lot, but sometimes there can be a slower pace of good levels I can showcase, which leads to longer periods of time passing by without a new showcase releasing. I'm sure there are a ton of great levels I havent showcased yet, but it would be either that I forget to do it, which it normally the case, or I just don't have a big interest in a certain level where some may enjoy a lot more than I do. To sum up what im sorta getting at here, I'm just wanting to clarify why I upload at such random times, some being very frequent, and some uploads split between a couple weeks and what not.
In the end, I do just wanna rap this up by saying (since I havent said it for a while now) that I'm amazed to see that I've been continuing to grow past 3,000 subscribers, and leading up to the next 4,000 sub milestone, and wanted to give a quick thanks for allowing me to make this happen. Even if you haven't subscribed, but have watched a couple of my videos in the past, I wanna thank you as well. Anyways, with all that said, have a good one, see ya!
Best Regards, Oculations! :^)

Happy New Year! 🎉
Hey everyone, it's been a minute since I last made a community post, but I wanted to give a couple updates on things now that not only is it the new year, but 2.2 has recently released for Geometry Dash, and a lot has happened since then, so let's just get to talking about that.
Firstly, to mainly address why I'm making a community post, theres some things regarding 2.2 I'd like to sit down and talk about. The first thing would be my change in my icon set. I've decided to go with a darker tint of a blue than my original, but to clear the air, I'm still in the phase of finalizing my true icon set for 2.2, and additionally would like to stay away from icon texture packs, so my profile and just icon recognition can be easier to viewers seeing my videos or looking at my geometry dash profile. Hope you guys understand, it's basically just how I feel like doing things now, but the showcase quality will stay the same, as I want you guys to always get a good viewing experience out of my showcases.
Secondly, let's talk about LIMBO. This level has felt like a rollercoaster to me, and very much so since the very sudden release of update 2.2 for gd. To clear any assumptions, I have not dropped LIMBO, and never plan to do so, because I've spent an obsurd amount of attempts on it, and it'd be akward to cancel it now. The main reason, and mainly obvious reason (unless your unaware), Geometry Dash 2.2 has changed the games natural physics for different gamemodes, causing some levels to be impossible with this new update. To prevent myself from getting rusty on this level, I've started using the 2.1 GDPS on the side to keep up with daily practice, and of course that will counts towards my final attempt count as well. I do apologize for the lack of progress, but honestly the level is obviously very very difficult, but also gotta balance out anything that happens outside of the online world.
Lastly, It seems that a good majority of you guys are still enjoying watching my stuff, which is awesome to see, and on top of that... wow, we're getting closer and closer to 3,000 subscribers, thats pretty wild for me. Anyways, that's about it from what I wanted to share with you guys. If you read all of this, thanks very much, but to those you just skimmed it or even skipped it, but do watch my stuff sometimes, I thank you as well.
Best Regards, Oculations! :^)

After over 1 and a half years of playing LIMBO, I finally have acheived my first ever Demon List Points, and have made it onto the official website under the LIMBO Leaderboard! Hopefully someday, whenever it may be, I'll be able to genuinely finish this level off once in for all, and get one of my biggest goals off my back... Thank you! <3

Hey there, it's been a good while since I've updated you guys with a community post, but after not using this tab for so long, I figured it was time to give some updates on a couple of things I've been working on in the past couple months. Before I dive deep into any specifics, I may say it every time I post a community thing, I wanna thank you guys for the support once again because I'm already nearing 2,500 subscribers, and soon enough 3,000 will be up next, which is crazy to me because I've never had a YouTube channel get to this size, but luckily I've been able to adjust slowly to the growth which is good. So thanks for everything so far, and only time will tell what the future holds for this! 🍻
The first thing I should most definitly talk about is any info regarding LIMBO, but more specifically LIMBO progress over the past while since I haven't really posting anything about the level in a bit. To clear any assumptions up, no I have not quit the level, and really never intend to honestly. The best explanation is that the level as you know is just simply very very difficult for me, and on top of that, my nerve control is very bad, so going from 0 is an actual shitshow lmao. With that in mind, as I said, I dont intent to stop playing the level ever, it's just that it may be slow progress until I actually pull it off in the entirety becasue jumping from a near insane demon being A2Marbl (in my opinion) to a high main list extreme demon is pretty rough cant deny that. As for any progrss I've made otherwise in the past while, I've gotten pretty close to doing 27-100 near 3 times now, and I've gotten to Jeyzor a fair bit from 0, but other than that, nothing super new has happened yet, but rest assured when it does, a new LIMBO progress video will be released. That basically sums up my update regarding LIMBO.
The next thing I think should be talked about is my upcoming extreme demon collaboration you may know called FROSTED, which is aimed to be somewhere in the Extended List, but we aren't 100% sure just yet. The progress for the collab will be slow, but I can assure you it will be worked on here and there, until it finally neares completion, then leading into actual Verification, which as of writing this is set to be verified by iiLogan, but if any changes occur, I doubt they will, any descriptions writen about it will be updated. It seems like from what I've seen, most of you guys seemed to like it, which I like to hear consisdering it's my biggest project I've worked on inside of GD before. That is about it regarding updates for FROSTED.
That basically sums up this essay I've written in my community tab for like the 10th time now lol. Thanks again for the support this channel has recieved, and as for my upload schedule, I dont have one tbh, but when there are levels I feel like uploading which I really like, rest assured they will be showcased in a super high quality for you all to enjoy! Thanks <3
Best Regards, Oculations! :^)

Hey all, I havent posted a community post in a hot minute, but I feel I should update you all on some stuff and what not. Before I say anything, I want to give a big thank you for the obsurd support this channel has been receving over the year of 2023 so far. We've accumulated well over 2K now and feel I should say my graditude for this sort of support which is something I've never really felt before. So thanks for coming back to my videos all the time! 🍻
The first thing I would like to talk to you guys about is regarding LIMBO. Before you assume anything, don't worry I have not dropped the level lmao. If anything I've been playing it more than ever since my run of 36-100 which was super shocking when it did happen. As for progress now, since I havent really posted LIMBO progress since that date, I've achieved a high amount of runs from 64 and 52 up to 100, but for exact, I believe to be around 15 times from 64, and probably 5-6 times from 52. A while back I achieved a run of 27 percent twice in the span of about 10 minutes in a play session, which I didn't upload cause its basically my 24% upload on YouTube already. So to sum it up, I've just sort of been grinding out LIMBO since my 36-100 run, and hope to possibly reach list percentage sooner or later, whenever that may be.
The other thing I wanted to talk about is about my upload schedule. As you probably have already noticed, my uploads seem to lack a consistent upload basis, and the reason for that is mainly because I'm quite a lazy person lmao, but I also am quite a busy guy, with College coming up in September, as well as doing a job and all the pretty ordinary stuff y'know. I just sort of wanted to apologize for the lack of uploads, even though I do love doing them, and it's quite clear you viewers seem to enjoy them as well which I do appriciate, so thanks for that. Hopefully you understand, as I dont know if there will ever be a super specific time when I post something, but just know I have no plans on stopping ANY time soon, as I also enjoy making showcases quite a bit, but its more or less just a matter of if I have some free time on my hands to make one, as making showcases in these qualities do take some time. Thank for you reading, and hope you all are doing well aswell. Thanks <3
Best Regards, Oculations! :^)

Hey everyone, I would like to give you all a couple of updates and what not about my channel since I haven't posted on the community tab is a hot minute. Before I start, I do want to thank you guys for all the constant support on my videos that have happened, and also for just coming back to my showcases I continue to make. I've definitly had a great amount of fun on this channel so far! 🍻
Now about the updates, I'll start off with most likely the elephant in the room currently. The documentry that I said I would do way back for a 1,000 subscriber speicial unfortunatly doesn't seem to see the light of day anytime soon, as I simply am demotiviated to finish it, but almost in a forgetful kind of way, since I've been so occupied giving you guys new showcases which is something a lot of you guys are obviously enjoying at the moment, which has lead to a major distraction in the documentry, which i've held off for so long... which is why I feel it won't be finished, so hopefully you guys are alright with that.
My next update is regarding the YouTube Partner Program, and more specifically the application part of things. I've infact managed to pull past the mark of 4,000 watch hours on YouTube, which alone is quite insane, so I want to also thank you all for giving me the chance to reach such a goal. With that in mind, the issue I've faced is getting accepted, which unfortunately didn't happen just once, but twice. When applying for the Partner Program, I got a response back from YouTube in about a week or so saying my channel was 'Reused Content', which is obviously not the case. I applied a second time, this time sending in a full video (about 4-5 minuntes worth) with voice over going into why my channel doesnt fall under 'Reused Content' to appeal for the false claim I had the first time around. Now I stand with a channel that potentially might never get monitized, but I honestly don't really feel concerned about that at all, and I'll explain why. This channel was created for the sole perpose of me wanting to grow a community, and over the past year of me posting, that goal has infact started to see the light of day, and is only getting closer the bigger we grow. Regardless if I'm making profit or not off this channel, I will still be super grateful for this opportunity, and I look forward for the future of this channel, as well as all of you guys that have made this possible.
Thank you very much for being a part of this channel, and be willing to watch the content I create. (YouTube seem's to think otherwise lol💀)

Hey there everyone, I have a little announcement I would like to update you all on. Before I begin I do want to thank you guys once more for the constant support throughout my channel even past my main goal of 1,000 subscribers! 🍻
First and foremost, I understand I’m already nearing 1.25K subscribers soon, and I did make a goal to post my first ever documentary for this channel soon for the 1K special. With that in mind, and I assure you, I will not stop it at all, but unfortunately I have been pretty busy with some IRL vacations or other chores and what not. Just wanted to let you all know, I still am fully committed to make that for you all as a reward for thanking you all for the amount of support recently on this channels growth, but it is slow progress, sorry for the news, but I hope you all understand. Thank you! <3

After 9 months of posting videos, it happened.... 1,000 Subscribers has been achieved! 🎉
Thank you guys all so much for this incredible opportunity, and I look forward to making more showcases in the near future!
I'm excited to make a voice reveal very soon, as well as complete that documentary you guys have voted for, but unfortunately the timing is ridiculous because Class Exams have come right around the corner. Summer is also right around the corner, meaning I'll have more time to work on videos soon, I hope you guys understand...
Thanks again very much for this! :)
