Phantom Fear, I remember first watching your series coincidentally my first day of my freshman year of high school. I've graduated now and I'm going to college soon. 4 years later, this is still my favorite FNF mod of all time. (You might remember some of the reaction videos I've made in the past.) I don't care how long the wait is, because no matter how long it takes every episode, it's ALWAYS worth it in the end. Always. I just wanted to say thank you for everything.

Glad you guys are taking your time crafting the next masterclass of an episode for the FNF Corruption series. Patience will be rewarded for those who wait.

I'm glad yall finally gave us a status update. Hearing that this is the most cinematic episode yet when the last episode was already filled to the brim with content and cinematic segments makes me really excited for this. Take your time Man, we can wait a little longer

When the first corruption mod episode was posted, I was 9. Now I'm 13 and I'm always happy like a baby when I see your videos, demos or even little updates of what you're planning since 4 years of hard work and dedication. I've never seen any other people with this determination. I love every detail of your works (and I walk around school with the same corrupted spooky kids since 2023 lol) and I'm growing up listening to your songs. So thank you, Phantom. Thank you for all of this ❤

Yippeee!!!! It’s been so long but i can wait longer. Corruption mod is honestly one of the best fnf mods i’ve ever seen (and the only one now i’m actively following even if i’m not in my fnf phase anymore) and i would hate for the final product to come out rushed. Can’t rush perfection, as they say

No way he's alive. We MIGHT get Corruption mod BEFORE GTA 6 (I already sensing it, delay on 2028, June 16. All Rockstar roads lead to another GTA 6 delay)

We stay strapped, and I will never give up on this series. When FNFCM mod finally reaches completion, it will be an absolutely insane time in the FNF community that's going to go down in history, and I'm so ready for the ride, no matter how long it takes. Never kill yourself. Corruption mod isn't finished yet. ✌️

Phew, I thought I'd have to wait much longer. Thank you, Phantom Fear, for taking the time to explain what was happening with this project (/series). I love this series; what you do is so original. Thank you for doing it and for giving me, and surely many other people, such happy moments. I hope you're well and taking care. Thank you.

I knew you guys were cooking up a master piece. I never gave up hope for the mod even with certain dramas that isn't going to stop the harvest.

The videos and songs all hit hard and show lots of progress of what you made Phantom Fear, and hard work and progress can make something even more amazing hoping to see the finished fnf song etc. and hoping it'll be as amazing as all the others.

Phantom Fear
Friday Night Funkin’: Corruption Mod Update Post
Hi all, you may be wondering where Corruption (and I) have been for the past 9 months (dear god) since the demo released.
I’m here to answer some questions and hopefully provide some context.
[Where is the next episode?]
The current bottleneck is waiting for music to be completed.
The song is under steady development and the WIPs of the song are sounding so so sooooo good. It's just a very ambitious song with lots of sections.
Parts of the episode that don't rely on music completion however, are much more developed. I’m happy to say this is probably the most cinematic episode we've made and is quite densely packed with plot and events.
There is also a huge silver lining to the amount of time this video has taken to make, it has given many an opportunity to make revisions of it. It might be the first corruption episode to have major revisions of this kind, as usually the development to release is pretty streamlined. But the video has kept evolving over time, and has been getting better each iteration imo.
Some of you already know that corruption's whole story has been written and completed since early 2021 (some time around the original corrupt spooky kids week!), so you may wonder how major revisions can be made on an already completed story. It mainly comes down to what is shown where. Some plot points that were originally going to be shown later in the story are now teased earlier etc etc. Additions to the story are also allowed as long as they tie in with the themes and make sense to be told in this universe (sub plots etc). And most importantly feedback! There has been many people who have watched work in progress versions of this video, and many have inputted their suggestions and notes which helps make a better final product. (Many thanks to everyone who has been giving such feedback behind the scenes!!)
I apologize for the long wait between the prior episode and this one, and I hope the wait will be worth it. It is personally one of my favourite episodes we have created.
It really does eat me alive wanting people to finally see the content of this episode.
[When can we expect to see the next episode?]
It is hard for me to say, due to the nature of waiting on music production etc etc.
But what I can say is once that is completed it won’t take much longer before the video is finished.
We have a bigger team than usual helping create this video, and many talented artists lending their support.
I am forever grateful to everyone for their efforts. I cannot even begin to describe it.
[Some of your videos have disappeared??]
Over the past year I have been having almost constant issues with youtube.
Initially my channel was being removed from the youtube partner program due to "unoriginal content".
I have zero clue how youtube came to this decision, they were claiming the channel was just reuploads of pre-existing content etc.
I’m sure I don’t have to explain why this is dumb and incorrect lmao.
Now over the past 2-ish months corruption content has been getting copyright claims due to issues with some of Leebert's music. (Most notably Bloodlust)
I’m sure anyone who has uploaded videos playing/streaming the demo has noticed this issue.
I have been trying to resolve this issue bts, but it doesn't appear much progress is/can be made on it.
So in the meantime the videos in question [Null Final Battle, and Null Full Week] are temporarily private.
Bloodlust the song may have to be replaced if issues cannot be resolved. I love the song so much and it would be a shame to see it go, but we can’t have everyone who records/streams the mod getting the copyright claimed by it.
Until this scenario is resolved, if you wish to view the content that is private go play the mod for yourself over on GameJolt or Itch! The demo is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux!
[Where is membership content?]
There is so much behind the scenes content I’m excited to, and WILL show to members.
The current issue is, IT'S ALL SPOILERS for the next episode. I don't want to ruin many of the surprises ahead of time, which makes it difficult to keep on top of monthly membership posts.
Rest assured, with the release of the next episode, members will get a ton of posts to make up for the missed time.
[How to support development of the next episode?]
The next episode will be made regardless of support or not, this video will come I PROMISE.
However due to constant youtube issues, it’s very obvious how unstable the platform is.
If you wish to support the channel, crowdmade merch and youtube memberships are more straight forward means of support.
Anything made from these sources goes straight back into funding music for future episodes etc, so any and all support is deeply appreciated.
[Final notes]
Many thanks to EVERYONE who has stuck with the series this long.
I am making many preparations for future episodes to ensure the series does not have another hiatus this long again.
Everyone who makes fanart, theories, comments, or even just watches the videos and plays the demo. I thank you all.
We are really trying our hardest to make this next episode a great one, and I hope it lives up to expectations and is worth the wait.
