Tammie and Perry's Yokai Adventures (Outdated)

Share

EDIT: A lot of what I said is now irrelevant! Stay tuned!


So... You maybe asking... What happen to the Spongebob Project? Well... I officially killed it off. And you also be asking why did I come to this descision in the first place? Well... Let's begin shall we?


PART 1: The beggining of the Spongebob Project idea


Believe it or not, there was an idea I had about this project that lasted way around 2009. To which involved The Glutton Queen concept, back when I had this idea of a Spongebob and Chowder Crossover. This would ultimately lead onto the creation of Queen Chan. Zui several years later. As for Tammie and Perry? Well, during the time before I started development of the project I was wanting to make a new character to join Spongebob and crew in a worldwide journey. I couldn't think of a proper character at the time, until I looked at to my love of Raccon Dogs, their Yokai counterpart, the Tanuki and Yokai's in general I managed to make a Tanuki girl named Tammie-Nookie. Mofeta drew the first concept of Tammie for me at the time he was working with me for the Spongebob Project and Star Melody. I did eventually came up with an idea that she should have a Partner with her. A Kasa Obake who I couldn't managed to came up with a name until around 2019, now named Perry-Sole. The old name for the Spongebob Project was gonna be called "Spongebob Squarepants: Robo Uprising" This was going to be the banner for it too. Then I managed to change it into "Spongebob Squarepants: Legend of the Lost Formulas. Here's the banner for that.


PART 2: The Rift begins


Then... Around 2020, I was sharing about my project around and while some people liked or even loved the idea... Some opposed the idea saying things like "It doesn't fit with Spongebob, especially the characters" and even suggested that "you should make original IP's instead of fan content"I had argued with these people... But then, something came to me... My conscious told me eventually that maybe they were right... Ideas were flowing kinda planted when I gave the idea of the Tammie-Nookie Project just in case if the Spongebob Project has undergone through issues, but it truely has breached when I started ideas of Tammie,Perry and the Pandroids could be their own characters in their own series. Back and forth I was even fighting with myself whether or not if I should go with the Spongebob Project or scrap it in favor of the Tammie-Nookie project. So earlier this week I reached out to some people at Discord and many had said that I should make it an original project, while some say that I can do both. And then, I finally made my descision, to scrapped the Spongebob Project in favor of the Tammie-Nookie Project.


PART 3: The reason for my descision


Well, the obvious reason is because many people suggested me to make it a original project. However... There's a a slight deeper reason for it. It's because of Stephen Hillenburg. He is the man I look up to for creating one of my all time favorite cartoons... Spongebob Squarepants, the greatest Nicktoon ever made IMO. My heart was crushed like many when we heard about his diagnosis and then ultimately passed away over a year later from the disease he had called ALS. Spongebob Lost Formulas was supposed to be a tribute to him and his legacy and basically a head canon conclusion to the series, taking a peek of how the world of Bikini Bottom is like after the events of the first Spongebob Movie. But, my issue with that are the new characters themselves, especially Tammie and Perry. I was wanting to make Lost Formulas and then had Tammie and Perry branch off into their own series, but... It didn't felt right... It felt like I was taking advantage of his legacy to fully push it of my own... Regardless of my intentions. There was at one point that I would save the project until Lost Formulas either gets C&D'd by Nick or the project in general begins to fall apart in a sense, but what truely pushed me to make this descision is when someone said this to me. "I think you should do what you think is better. Stephen would be happy with it, as long as you're enjoying and laughing at his show and characters

Whether to make it original or not, if you feel like you could do it. It may be worth doing, it can turn out to be a great decision" They're right... Stephen would be happy about it whether or not I make a fan project or an original one, but I think he would be more impressed if I made my own project... So that's what it leads to the Tammie-Nookie Project.


PART 4: Tammie,Perry and the Pandroid's new beggining on their own


Yeah, not only Tammie and Perry will be on their own adventures, but Queen Chan. Zui and the Pandroids will be the main villains of Tammie and Perry's journey. So, what's next? I'm still going to move forward and make this new project alongside with Star Melody. You have no idea how relieved I felt when I decided to scrap the Spongebob Project. Now I have 2 Major original series to work on and potentially much more. So stay tuned as I'll be working on these projects and update you all with more info. Thank you all for reading this.
