Since the site went offline recently, I am writing this to tell people what to expect in the near future!
Q: Why isn't the site on the AlchemillaHospital.net domain?
A: I still own the domain, but I have been slowly transferring my sites and domains to a different host since last year, due to problems with the former host. So it will be transferred back there in the future, once I get the time to deal with that. In the meantime, things will be in this subdirectory of the SHC domain, which is also linked from the forums.
The forums were originally run and created by Ratiocinator, who is currently busy with things like the Silent Hill 2 Enchanced Edition project, and were transferred to me a while back.
Q: Do you still have the files from the site?
A: Yes, I still have all the databases but I may have lost some images here and there, and I plan to go through all the games and make new screencaps in higher resolution anyway. More information and details come out about the games all the time, even the older games, so there is always something that can be added. See also the YouTube Channel!

Q: Will the site return in the old Wordpress format?
A: Yes, but I am going to put the stuff here up as HTML because I feel like it, and because it's less bloated. I will re-upload the site database of all the posts to the site in the near future, but I may have to re-do a lot of the images for this, which will take some time anyway, so I am redoing screencaps and making new videos in the meantime.
Q: How can I support the site?
A: To help to enable the transition back to the old domain and to get more new content up, any help is appreciated! There is a patreon where you can support the site for as little as $1 a month, and get more updates and info; or you can support the site via the Etsy store, which has objects from the games which I have re-created in various media, as well as stickers and keychains.
Despite the fact that many people use social media more than forums and sites these days, I still find these formats greatly preferable because of the easy access to information via indexing and searching. There are also no ads on the site. Even though YT runs ads on some of my videos, they don't pay any of the money to me, and keeping the site online and maintaining that and the forum takes time and money.
In March of 2020, the company I worked for until that time decided to completely change what they did and they let go of all of us. Since I made more money then, I haven't had as much free time and money to use on these things in the past few years, but I am attempting to get back into the swing of things and pay more attention to what is going on in the world of video games. I am also contributing to RelyOnHorror.com
Q: What other nonsense are you up to?
A: I'm glad you asked! I also have a channel up about the Latin language and ancient culture and history called AncientRomeWithAmy, me and the BFF run a YouTube video podcast called the Creepy & Weird Podcast, I do some game programming here and there, and my art is for sale locally at Artist's Attic LLC.
