welp...it's that time of year again...
Hey guys, This year was something huh.
For me, this year had its highs, but also some very VERY low moments as well.
I don't wanna get into the bad stuff because its personal....So lets talk about all the good stuff that happened to me this year instead!!
ALL THE COOL STUFF THAT HAPPENED TO ME THIS YEAR!!!!111!!1!!1
- games I played this year
For starters this year I played a whole bunch of games I never even would've thought about playing. Some of the games were better than others, and let's just say some of them left a bigger impact on me than others lol.
I think I'll just list the main ones.
This year I played...
- Undertale - (It was aight. Didnt quite understand it and honestly don't have much motivation to go back to it. All the hype in 2015 for this game made me think it'd be better than it really is.) (sorry Tiltro)
- Super Mario RPG - (It was fun charming little game and I did really love it, but it didn't quite leave as a big of an impact on me as another certain RPG on this little list...)
- Sonic Mania - (I've wanted to play this game ever since it came out! It's super fun, I'm very very happy I finally got to play it this year. I'd say its now my 2nd/3rd favorite sonic game, and that's saying something for me lol)
- Fallout New Vegas - ( This game is so good oh my goodness gracious. Even though I've only been playing it for a month, I really really like it. All the different interactions and routes you can choose, and things you can do is astonishing. This game is HUGE! even though it looks ugly af and reeks of 2009, I'm having a blast with it! I've always had a thing for the fallout series but I never got to play any of the games until now. As the wise xxsquidwardxx said "Its best game...of all time".)
And the last and probably the most important game I played this year is Earthbound!
I played around the February/March time of year. I remember I just randomly tried it off-handedly at first, but then I talked to Tappy about it and he showed an Earthbound animation, than I gave Earthbound another shot and after that, I fell in love with Earthbound.
Basically everything about it captivated me from start to finish. The music, the characters, the story, the gameplay, everything. I got so invested in Earthbound that I played the other 2 games almost immediately after. I even modded my 3DS to have Mother 3 on it. Each of the games are unique and I love em all, but my favorite is still Earthbound. The Mother series is now one of my favorite video game series.
I know It sounds corny and stupid to say but I do really think Earthbound kind of changed my life for the better and helped me grow as a person.
(heh I never drew Mother 1 fanart...Maybe I should fix that.)
Alright I think that's enough singing its praise now, but yeah I guess you could say MY Earth changed after playing
Earthbound :]
I think I'm done talking about all the video games I played this year.
Lets talk about every other cool thing.
everything else!!!!
I finished and posted my own little One Piece collab this year. It was a lot of fun maybe one day I'll make another one.
I made a couple Peanutbuttergamer animations just cuz. Those were fun :]
I got to watch Pulp Fiction and No Country for Old Men this year too!! Both those movies are really really good! Love em both :]]
But I think one of the best thing that happened this year is I got a summer job and I actually made some money this year. It wasn't a whole lot, but its more money than I've ever had before, and because of that I bought a phone and got a cool shelf for games and a whole bunch of other stuff lol
now lets talk about the future plans for 1301!
the plans for 2025!!!!!!!!!
For 2025, I basically wanna do what I did this year BUT BETTER!!!
For future animations.. I got a couple things cooking in the oven atm ;)
I will say they are all One Piece related, no more PBG animations lol
Here's a quick work in progress of one of em!
This ones about Enel!
This cartoon will probably come out sometime soon so be on the lookout for that :]
In terms of video games, I already have plans to play LISA as part of my Earthbound arc.
I also wanna try Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time this year too :]
And maybe even Metal Gear Solid!
I also wanna earn more money next year and work more.
...And maybe even try to start making animations for some other folks.....hehehehehehhe we shall see ehheheheheheheehe
Ultimately, I don't know what the future holds, but at this moment, things are coming up tyro!!!
I think it's time to wrap this stupid update thing up..
CONCLUSION
This year was a learning experience for me...
I feel like I did a lot and learned a lot in 2024, so for next year I just wanna keep doing what I've been doing.
Like I said at the beginning of this, 2024 also had a lot of low moments for me, but I think those moments also helped me grow.
I've become more willing to try new things and be more open minded about stuff.
I'm still learning, still growing, and still trying my best. :]
Well, that's pretty much everything. Here's to 2025!!
I wanna give special shoutout to @TappyWara for always being there and for always being a homie, but also I want to thank ALL my friends and all the new friends I made this year. :]
Thank you, Tom Fulp
Thank you, Akira Toriyama
Thank you, Newgrounds

I forgot to mention that I also listened to a lot more music this year. So to close this thing, here's a couple songs that I enjoyed listening to in 2024!

Thank you all! I love you!
Keep being Tyro!
