The Tiger is Out of the Bag! (Blog) (Patreon)

Aaaahhhhh... let's just take a moment to breathe real quick!

...

Man let me tell you, it feels good to finally be able to say TY the TASMANIAN TIGER is on the way in August! This has been such a long time coming, so much build up and anticipation. I'm glad it's coming together. Now it's STILL not finished... but let's talk about that!

-----------------------------------------

Ty 6-Part Series Review) So as I've mentioned previously, Episodes 1, 2 and 3 are FINISHED! Episode 4 is halfway filmed, along with Episode 6. Episode 5 however... has not entered production/filming yet and to be honest, that's probably a good thing! You'll find out why later on in the Behind the Scenes posts on the $2 tier, as well as the Making-of episode when it's all over with. So for now, I'll just refresh you on how these are going to be uploaded:

• August  6th - Episode One
• August 13th - Episode Two, Game Review One
• August  20th - Episode Three, Game Review Two
• August 27th - Episode Four, Game Review Three

Then we'll have a brief break with time for some other stuff, including a video Q&A! Then at this stage, September will look like this:

• September 17th - Episode Five, Game Review Four
• September 24th - Episode Six, Game Review Five
• October 1st- Tony Hawktober Trailer

So yeah, it's looking fucking nuts. But with Episode 5 and 6 not arriving until late September, there is still time to get those finished. Episode 4 however will need to take absolute priority as we enter August. The hope is... if these other 3 videos can be completed in the first half of August, I'll then have a solid 6 weeks to solely focus on Hawktober. Doesn't seem like much, but that's roughly the same amount of time I've had the past 2 years. And by the time those 6 weeks begin, scripts should be just about finished. SO IT IS DOABLE... but we're in a tricky spot. It just has to work, no questions!

Gameplay Content) Onto other things! The Game Testing Finale IS FINISHED! It's a big episode, just over 30 minutes long but I'm happy with it. I feel like it's the perfect send off for the series. Plans are to upload that on a Friday, following the FIRST Ty episode next week! We're also about to start the second season of the Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled GP (with added micro-transactions, don't get me FUCKING started) so hopes would see that produced relatively snappy. I'd like for that to drop Friday the 17th of August, following Episode 2 of Ty. We'll see how that goes.

August Patreon Podcast) Because of everything going on right now, I feel somewhat like I should focus on getting these things sorted. So chances are that the Podcast will come a little bit later in the month. I WILL MAKE SURE THAT IT DOESN'T GET CANCELLED AGAIN, there is no question of that. But the 1st-2nd week we normally try to aim for is a bit out of the question right now. Sorry about that, but you have my word that we will get to it! :)

----------------------------------------- 

Closing Thoughts) Ok... pretty sure that's everything I have to go over this week. I'm hoping that once Ty is close to wrapped, that we can start to get back to a normal flow with things, even with Hawktober looming. I want to get back to regular testing episodes, covering new series and systems I haven't discussed before and streaming semi-regularly. It has definitely been a chaotic year but I hope you can all see now, that the end result will be something special! Anyway, thank you for reading and as always, I hope you have a great fucking day. Cheers!
