Weekly Update [09-02-23] - The Countdown! (Patreon)

Good day agents!

Has it been a good week for you as it has been for me? On my end I've had progress on all fronts. I'm especially thrilled about Iron Maiden that is literally coming up over the radar horizon in an intercept trajectory. Can we expect one more sneak peek in the coming days before release then? -- YES.

On other news, the latest poll was rather intense to watch. For the longest time it remained deadlocked on a 50/50 count and although in the end the count shifted into the GO BIG OR GO HOME camp, it was only by a small margin.

This led me to adjust my plans slightly to accommodate the folks that I figure were concerned with a looooong production run, while still giving the majority what we all ultimately want: MOAR EYE CANDY.

So here's the game plan: We are doing a GRAND tournament after all with a total of 16 fighters involved, and although I'll take a couple of weeks for pre-production to set up the arenas and the extended roster, using some Clever™ storytelling we'll divide the complete tournament arc into a three parter. Meaning, the production run of each individual part will be the usual length for a single Strikeforce episode, but the full story will be told across three episodes.

Interestingly, this is not the first time we do this, as you might remember -- OP: Witching Hour, OP: Dawn Bringer and OP: Mile High Club were part of their own trilogy!

This way, each individual part will be tight and juicy and launch within acceptable time frames while simultaneously we can go big in regards to the scale as I feel this story arc deserves. So ... win-win-win?

That said, mark your calendars and synchronize your watches agents, as I plan to discuss the tournament in detail and showcase some of the new characters in the next Weekly Update, because even though the project itself will still be in pre-production, I see no reason why we can't have some of that much hyped EYE CANDY delivered early eh?

With that, I'm going back to the trenches.

Over and out! <3
