It is very similar to MP4, but with optional DRM protections. There are restrictions on what tools can be used to play them, but M4V files without DRM protections will be recognized by most video players if disguised as an MP4 file.
While reading through my “archival materials“ out of boredom, I rediscovered this quote:

However, while I was depositing the third eggbug’s eggs, they started despawning when I dropped them into the shelter. I wonder why?
However, another issue presented itself. A white lizard went into the shelter and helped itself to one of the eggbugs. However, the shelter was one of those 3×3 top-exit shelters, so the lizard got stuck in there. I was forced to hibernate with the lizard, which counted towards The Friend. Nearly half of the following cycle passed with both of us trying and failing to get out of the shelter.
Eventually, I tried using a cherrybomb that I had stored in the shelter to force the lizard out. After being pummeled by the explosions of every cherrybomb stored in the shelter, I left the shelter to find the outside chamber empty. Then, a blue lizard, a white lizard (the same one), and a large swarm of batflies came out of a nearby pipe, all at once. Weird.
I did get footage of the incident, though it might be hard to understand because the file requires a little re-encoding. The footage is available on request.
The journal entries that I write have been getting longer, and in turn have been taking longer to write. For the fun of it, I decided to check the word counts of my longest journal entries. Only the newest ones over 200 words have been ranked here, with their dates, titles, and word counts:

The point, prestige point, and honour requirements set for achievements and upgrades are awfully high. Is there something that I’m missing? Or is everything that I need to progress locked behind explorable prestige point upgrades and a LOT of waiting?

ENTRY A - Hunter's Campaign, Ses. 1
I have successfully ascended and completed Survivor's campaign! However, being naturally overzealous (and planning to take on Spearmaster's campaign first-thing), I dove into Hunter's campaign . . .
I must say, I am not taking the pressure well. I've already been ground down to minimal karma (currently at 2 due to hibernating), and I had to give up the Aquamarine Pearl to get past a scavenger toll. I have already wasted three cycles of my precious time, but I was lucky enough to find an explosive spear . . . which I will probably never use, due to my reluctance to use limited resources.
I have successfully ascended and completed Survivor’s campaign in Rain World! I’ll update this post with a journal entry within the next hour.
[RWA → Oh Wow, It's COLD!]
ENTRY C - Rain World Day 9, Ses, 16
I'm on my way out! I decided to start making progress at full speed and went from Industrial Complex to Drainage System at top speed. I'm currently checkpointed in the shelter inside the karma gate that bridges Drainage System and Filtration System. I don't have much further to go!
While I was still in Industrial Complex, I discovered a way to climb straight-vertical walls (when staked spear removal is available) and also encountered a glitched bubble nut that was thrown like a pearl instead of a rock, and couldn't grow into a bubble fruit.

ENTRY B - Rain World Day 9, Ses. 15
Despite my main objective either taking me through Farm Arrays or through Drainage System, I have taken a brief step away to explore the Garbage Wastes. At the moment, I think that the Drainage/Filtration System path is the most feasible. I can take the Garbage Wastes path into Shoreline and visit Farm Arrays and Sky Islands during my Monk run.

ENTRY E.2 - Monk's Grand Pilgrimage!
I want to complete all three campaigns of Rain World before moving on to Downpour. This means that I'll have to complete Monk's campaign, which might be too easy as a Survivor player.
I have ideas on how I could make Monk's campaign more balanced. I was thinking that I could do a pilgrimage run; that is, getting maximum karma from echoes instead of the Mark. However, there are probably better ways. I haven't completed Survivor's campaign yet, so to the people of wasteof, please give your suggestions on what I can do to make a Monk run more balanced for an experienced Survivor player!

ENTRY C - Rain World Day 8, Ses. 14
Rain World sessions and their respective updates will be continuing as usual! I am following a new and very strange vocation: hoarding baby centipedes and storing them in the shelter next to a lake in Industrial Complex. I plan to use these to tame a lizard at some point, but I am pressed for choices. My best bet would be a blue or white one, as those ones can climb on the background and "fly". However, I'm unlikely to actually do anything with the centipedes.
The shelter currently has six dead centipedes, one live hazer and one inflated bubble fruit stored in it.
It's about time that I give another update on my Prestige Tree progress. I managed to unlock Phantom Souls (and also Magic, if I didn't mention that) since my last update. Here are the numbers:
Total time played: 12d 23h
First M reset: 8d 4h
First PS reset: 11d 4h
Phantom souls: 8
Wraiths: 4

ENTRY A - No Progress Here . . !
I intentionally skipped a Rain World session this morning. I was planning to use the morning to design vectors for DDP, but between two rapid-fire GT-180 broadcasts and me discovering that I did not, in fact, have all of my files made before the Lunch irreparably deleted in the transfer to the stick, I ultimately got nothing done.
I wish that there was a silver lining to this, but there is nothing good about procrastination.

ENTRY C - Rain World Day 7, Ses. 13
I don't remember all of the details about the session; at 4:30, I just hit the hay and daydreamed really hard. This entry is being written nearly an hour after it ended. That being said, I managed to get out of Chimney Canopy and back into Industrial Complex. I took both of my pearls with me, despite the fact that I will probably never be able to deliver them to Looks to the Moon. I wasted the first half of the cycle trucking vulture grubs into the karma gate, which I ended up not taking with me. I located and collected some white pearls and the blue pearl, but a hasty flyby with a pole plant put the session to an end.
