Hiya, so PART ONE of the WLCW Pilot is out on Youtube! But some people were having issues with YT compression and frame skipping... we did our best to polish everything up in time before the Backerkit campaign ended.
This vertical slice was largely rushed in the last 4 weeks so we'd have "something" to show for the series, however it is NOT the Pilot that the Backerkit was meant to fund, it's more so "what we would've gotten done" if WLCW continued at a much smaller independently funded scale. It's also not the first episode chronologically and is more so an experimental self-contained episode...
I've noted some feedback that weeee really need to hire more animators + pace out the Episodic plots much better. Though please keep in mind that this is effectively "the last" small-scale WLCW production where I do like the vast majority of the key animation, as I will be delegating myself to overseeing the overall series production, storyboards, and design.
Ah also, another thing, a large amount of Backers from the Backerkit pledged to have their names in the credits but since they haven't been charged yet, we have not put your names in the credits at the moment. However they WILL be in the full episode release and home media versions.
Regardless, Thank you to everyone who has supported and who has continued to support WLCW now and into the future.
We will be trying to make something cooler and on a professional scale in the future, starting with the WLCW Shorts planned for later this summer. Gay Bomb and Psychic Arms Race were delayed due to the campaign's unprecedented scope required, and we will be aiming to release these by August at the latest, as well as pushing forwards with The British, + The Warsaw Pact that same month with a full expanded team of animators.
See you guys soon! I'm going to be taking a week-long break to do some thinking, reorganizing, but tentatively our internal schedule to restart production on WLCW is July 13th! We onboarded 2 dozen new staffers and we really hope to deliver something cool to you guys soon!
