The first video was originally uploaded around 2007, the current upload is on the creator's 3rd Youtube channel.
The RPG battle idea came from a video by user "NintendoBrad" called "Gwonam gets into a fight with a Taco"
The first video was created as the creator saw Ronald McDonald as the perfect subject to base a villain on, his actions getting more sinister as the videos went on.
The videos were animated in Windows Movie Maker and Microsoft Paint, with the RPG battles also done in paint but with a screen recorder used to record moving objects across the screen. This is why the mouse cursor and a watermark can be seen.
Later videos used Windows Movie Maker for Vista, which affected the colours of certain scenes dramatically thanks to no screen-cap button.
