Logray Studios - Official Website

(In the words of Luke Arnott, founder and CEO of the company)

Logray Studios is an American independent film studio and video game producer. The first projects I ever published online were a pair of Super Mario animations, made using Scratch block code. That was all the way back in 2019. Now, I've expanded into the world of video games, YouTube videos, movies and more! Even though the quality of my projects has changed dramatically over the years, I still live by the same core values I've had ever since I first started making things online:

Treat every customer like a potential friend.
It's the little things that count.
If it can be improved, improve it.

I specialize in building upon the works of others; taking a thing that somebody else made that I think can be improved, then improving it (giving credit when it's due, of course). My content is 100% family-friendly*, with no blasphemy, swearing or dirty humor! Come join my awesome community! I look forward to hearing from you!

Also, please keep in mind that this site is still a work in progress. Improvements are soon to come. :)

* Content ranges from G to TV-PG.

2024 Hasn't Been the Best Year for Logray Studios. Here's the Plan for 2025.

12/29/2024

Logray Studios has faced some challenges recently. The trouble began when the Scratch Team removed my animation criticizing the Barbie movie for insinuating that we lived in a patriarchal society. Some random Scratcher didn’t like it, so Scratch moderators immediately took it down, saying that I had tried to share a link to a potentially dangerous site. Frustrated by this decision, I chose to leave Scratch and transfer all my projects to a new platform hosted on my own domain. I called it "Logray Ultimate." Moving nearly 7 gigabytes of files was a massive task, so I had to cancel all upcoming project release dates to focus on the transition. Most of the year since has been dedicated to redesigning my site and working on my YouTube video, *Clean Memes I Found Starving in the Gutters.* While the video was well-received, it wasn’t quite the amount of content I’d initially promised my fans.

Going into the new year, I’ll be announcing the release dates for my projects a lot later than I did before, to better match expectations. The next major Logray projects confirmed for release include "Mario and the Amythest Labyrinth" and "Behind the Scenes of Portal Stories: Prologue" for YouTube. There will also be "Super Mario World Tour 5," exclusive to Logray Ultimate. Logray Ultimate itself will also be getting a facelift.

Honestly, I couldn’t have kept going without your patience and support – thank you for sticking with me. Here’s to a fresh start in 2025!

Further Details About Reading Your Comments Part 11 Revealed.

1/12/2025

The Reading Your Comments series is a certified classic among Logray fans, and ever since the first episode came out in 2020, it's been the dream of many to have their comment featured in the next installment. While I am proud to announce that RYC 11 has been confirmed for release, I must warn you that the wait is far from over.

Part of Logray Studios' plan for 2025 is to try and focus on a single project at a time, in order to increase efficiency. Admittedly, this new system has been hard for me to adjust to so far, since I hate letting dust collect on any of my possessions, but I'm trying my best.

This is relevant because there are a few projects that I'd like to get out of the way before I make any more significant progress on RYC. These projects include Super Mario World Tour 5 and the Portal Stories Prologue: Behind the Scenes video. These are both massive projects, and I want to get them off my plate as quickly as possible. I have no idea when that'll happen, but until it does, RYC 11 is unlikely to be released. On the plus side, since I no longer release projects on Scratch, the amount of mail I've been getting there has gone down substantially, which means there's less risk of me falling behind! I always try to look on the bright side of things. ;)

Logray Has a New Game in the Works, and You Can Already Play the First Level.

2/3/2025

Up until now, most of Logray Studios' platformers have been "fixed-screen" platformers; that is, instead of the world moving horizontally or vertically as the player progresses, each level is static, making it possible for the player to touch the edges of the screen. Logray platformers have been built this way since the beginning, but it is unlikely that this trend will continue for much longer.

Set to release later this decade, Jeff's Quests will be my first-ever "scrolling" platformer, or at least the first one that is connected to the overall "Petra" timeline (the same timeline that contains such platformers as Alone and Cubey's World). Jeff's Quests is an unofficial remastering of the iconic platformers made by Scratch user @jacko1234567, and features vastly improved graphics and gameplay mechanics.

I won't be saying anything about the release date of this game for a while, but I think it's safe to say that it should come out within the next five years. In the meantime, you can try out a free demo version of it on Logray Ultimate!

Why Logray Is Only Now Making YouTube Shorts.

3/13/2025

This may come as a shock to some of you, but ever since they were added in 2020, I've been quite repulsed by the idea of making my own YouTube Shorts. This was for a number of reasons, but to sum it up...I just didn't think Shorts were that good. There was no way to rewind them or skip ahead, and it looked like, if you made your own, you couldn't add a thumbnail, which felt like a huge downside to me. I also didn't like how hard YouTube was pushing for Shorts to be used to promote LGBTQ+ content. As a reminder, I'm not against the LGBTQ+ community and I'm not saying that they should be stripped of all their rights, I simply believe that their ideology is not something that should be celebrated as much as it is. Watching Game Theory's video on why Shorts were going to ultimately kill the platform made me even less interested in making my own. I thought my mind would never change.

Fastforward to today: YouTube Shorts have recieved a lot of updates since they were first added, and now, they're much easier for me to watch. I also feel like there's been less of YouTube using them to promote LGBTQ+ content, but maybe that's just me. I can't describe what exactly went through my head the other day, when I changed my mind, but something just said to me, "Yeah, maybe it's time." So that's why I'm doing Shorts now.

As of the writing of this article, I've already put out two Shorts on my Logray Lyfe channel, and I'm planning to upload more on my main channel as well. Shorts uploaded to the main channel will focus on things specifically related to Logray Studios, while Shorts uploaded to Logray Lyfe will be more random. I hope you enjoy!

LEGO Agrees to a Collaboration with Logray Studios!

4/1/2025

After weeks of careful planning and exchanging design ideas, LEGO has finally given me permission to tell you about my upcoming LEGO BrickHeadz set! Set #40823 is based on my OC (should be pretty obvious), and stands at just over 3" tall, so it fits in perfectly alongside other BrickHeadz models!

I've been working with the LEGO Group on this for a while now, and I can't wait to see what you think of it! Available in stores worldwide this August! Stay tuned for updates!
