**Lucy Does Gaming** is a YouTube channel that is centered around gaming related content. The videos follow Lucy, the host of the channel as well as several people frequently appearing alongside, such as the fellow Bumpkincraft Server members. The channel is meant to document some of the things the friend group have done. Lucy sees themselves as merely the messenger, bringing the effort of many individuals, alone and combined, into the spotlight. The channel has some related social media accounts under the same name.

## YouTube

The Lucy Does Gaming Channel, created on 20 February 2021, is a gaming centered YouTube channel following the titular character of Lucy as the host. The first series to air on the channel is Bumpkincraft Season 4 (Bumpkincraft Legacy), which first aired on 9 September 2022, over a year after the channel was created. The videos were recorded even earlier than that, starting in September of 2020, with the recording of the first episode taking place exactly 2 years before it's eventual release, on 9 September 2020. These delays were in part caused by the Covid-19 Pandemic. 2022 saw the release of the first 6 videos on the channel, before uploading was paused again after Christmas, until early 2023.

* Sternens Lapis (Editor)

###  **YouTube Branding**

Main (2021-2023)Pride Month (June 2021)Christmas (Dec 2021)
* During Pride Month 2022 and Christmas 2022 the channel profile picture was not updated. Changing the channel image takes too much effort according to Lucy.

**List of different Lucy Does Gaming YouTube Banners over time.**

Main Banner (2021-2023)
* The first channel banner was built inside of Minecraft on 14 July 2021 inside of Lucy's Bumpkincraft Season 4 creative test world.[2] It was made using the, at the time, new blocks introduced in Minecraft's 1.17 version.
	+ The armor stand was initially just a placeholder for Lucy, but made it into the final picture.
	+ in between the Dripstone Stalagmite and the Big Dripleaf on the left, a Glow Ink item can be seen. This was a leftover from previous attempts to position the Glow Squid in midair. The Squid are not on Barrier Blocks, but instead have their gravity turned off using the `"NoGravity"` NBT tag.
	+ The Axolotl in the picture is a Leucistic Axolotl, one of five possible Axolotl colours in Minecraft. The colour is chosen on purpose, because the term "Leucistic Axolotl" is often shortened to "Lucy Axolotl".
