Right now, we're redoing a lot of the assets, so while I'm directing that part for my team, I'm working by myself, trying to figure out how I should do my lighting, animation, compositing, temporary/concept SFX (for my audio engineer to replace and work on), as well as working on improving my cinematography a little, while also planning out the vibes and what kind of ambient tracks we wanna take inspiration from.
Redoing most of the assets is setting us back a bit, but it's necessary to do so, since some of my visions have changed, and some people who made the assets we're replacing are not on the team anymore.
I know I said I wanted the first episode to come out in 2026. This was never a promise since I figured some things would have to be changed before we could really start on anything, plus I'm struggling a lot with chronic fatigue, so my motivation dips strongly at times and has been pushing back progress a bit on the script. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that there's a possibility the first episode won't release this year.
