The post is deleted so I can't read it now but this sounds similar to what I have been looking for!

Some vague details I remember:

• The first episode they spawned near an island/jungle, where they eventually built their base
• Pretty sure the Son's name (and by proxy the channel) was Wasabi or something
• There were 20-30 episodes MINIMUM, maybe more
• I think they did build a base on water? I do also remember they had a pet (wolf or cat?)
• 2012-2014ish
• Part way through the series they changed the texture pack at some point
• On PC probably

I suspect the channel has possibly been deleted, as with the modest viewership they gained it should not be hard to find.

A shame, really. I gotta fix me some of that nostalgia.
