Monthly Update: September 2022 (Patreon)
Content
Hello Patrons and slugs,
We’ve made it to the end of September, and we’ve been busy. We’ve spent the month editing and putting the finishing touches to Retry: Cuphead.
Here’s a little peak at the key art for the new series...
It’s pretty much all done, and you’ll be able to see it all very soon. But that’s not all. Since the beginning of September, we’ve started filming regularly every Monday and Tuesday, and we’ve already got plenty of stuff in the pipeline. This is the new production schedule we’ve wanted to get going since moving into the new place and wrapping on Retry: Demon’s Souls.
We can’t talk about everything that’s coming, but it’s already making a big difference, which you’ll see very soon. The reason we’re not revealing everything we’re working on right now is because we only want to talk about things when we know we can 100% deliver on them. When we’re ready, you’ll be the first to know the upcoming schedule.
But as a little tease, we can reveal we’ve already filmed an entire series of SPOOKIES, which was so much fun to film. Any guesses on what it might be?
It’s been great to be filming more regularly and getting back to how we used to make things in the before-times.
Studio Update
One of the reasons we’re not outlining everything in the pipeline is because right now we’re striking the balance between filming, post-production, and setting aside time to work on the studio. It’s easy to worry about putting out new things on the channel and on Patreon, but it’s important to set aside time to improve the studio, as ultimately that’ll make us way more efficient and productive.
Patrons on our Early Access tier and above can watch the first of our vlog series chronicling what we’re up to with the RKG studio and see how we progress in the month’s ahead. The first part is out now and gives you a good tour of our home and what we plan to do with it.
New T-Shirt On Sale Now
Retry: Demon’s Souls finally comes to a close this weekend.
As you've probably already seen, we've launched a new shirt to celebrate the end of the series which we put so much work into.
We obviously had to collaborate with BLOC. who has helped us design all the artwork for the series, and with this T-shirt we want to celebrate Papa Finchy and especially our journey through the lands of Boletaria.
Here's a couple of early rough variations for this design BLOC. worked up for us.
The T-shirt and hoody are now on sale for two weeks! Click here to take a closer look.
Halloween Horror Nights
Last month we teased Krupa and Gav’s adventures in Orlando, which you can hear more about in a recent Shield Up, and if you’ve not seen it then have a look at us surviving 10 haunted houses in one night.
We love making one-off specials like this and with our new production schedule, we’ll hopefully be in a position to be able to make more exciting things like this soon.
Streams Next Month
Public
RKG Halloween Sleepover IV
The Halloween livestream is back!
We’re still firming up the details but we’ll be bringing you a spooky stream complete with fancy dress on Saturday 22nd October. More details soon.
Producer Streams
Gav Plays The Last of Us - Ep. 2
Gav’s back with the second instalment of his The Last of Us livestream so join him in his (relatively) safe zone as he continues Joel and Ellie’s story.
Friday 7th October at 7pm BST | 2pm EDT | 11am PDT | 5am AEST
Krupa’s Dark Souls 3 Platinum: The Grind-a-Thon 3
Krupa’s back for yet another grinding stream. That’s the thing about grinding: it takes ages. He’ll be back slaying Silver Knights and crying at the steps of Anor Londo’s bastard cathedral for – optimistically – 5 to 6 hours in search of covenant items. Please join him, and prevent him from going hollow.
Saturday 15th October at 3pm BST | 10am EDT | 7am PDT | 12am AEST
So lots going on and lots in the pipeline. We hope you're looking forward to what's coming, and we can't wait to show you more.
