Yeah my bad on Betterhelp, fuck em. Taking that video down, will post something later with them edited out.

Wasn't aware of the March 2023 FTC update at the time of signing that contract, and was rather foolishly unaware of drama due to their presence in a number of channels that I watch (Jonny Harris, for example).

Hey gang! Apologies about the upload mistake today. I was underslept and mistakenly edited the into of one video onto the body of another video. How foolish! 

Plenty of content tomorrow, have a great week ❤️

Wishlist our game today, and pick it up on Friday!  https://bit.ly/TPB_Steam

Music is essential yet often underappreciated, so we decided to have a full time musician from day 1 of The Pale Beyond's development. Today, I'm excited to share with you a big teaser: a 1 hour chill mix of our soundtrack. Enjoy!
