Hello everyone! Milo here, happy Flimpo Friday! Let's head right into this week's updates:
For the production of Mandelbrot Hall's pilot, we broke down the full 22 minute episode into seven smaller "chunks" (technically nine if you count the guest animation and theme song). Despite only having half the anticipated time we would usually allot for a production chunk (~1 month) we completed ...

Hi everyone! Reid here with your weekly update!
Production is off to a great start. This week the three of us have been working on background layouts and animation layouts, which is basically drawing in rough character poses to the animation scenes to make sure everything lines up with the backgr...

Hi everyone! Milo here, happy flimpo friday once again!
Exciting news- the design bible is finished!!! Or at the very least finished enough- almost all the designs have full color, with only a few location designs being line only. This means we can make background layouts properly when we start animating (which will also be very soon). We've just exported the new soft-locked anim...

Hi everybody, Reid here!
Ren was away for part of the week seeing family, so I took over storyboarding duties and I can confidently say we're very close to locking the thumbmatic! Once we have that locked we can schedule retakes with our voice actors and, at long last, begin animating.
As o...

Hi hi everyone! Milo again for this week's Flimpo Friday update ^^
Remember how one of the perks on the Mandelbrot Hall campaign was your own character in the pilot? One person got it- and Reid finished the design for that character today! No spoilers, but the gag we had written for this character (before we even knew who it was) fits hilariously well. Reid also wrapped on all of the prop...

It's Milo again- technically its Reid's turn this week but he's busy editing our animatic for this week's assemble. I've asked him for comment, and this is what he had to say:

First off, we have an update regarding the Mandelbrot Hall crowdfund surveys. Last week we said you could expect them by now, but after calling with BackerKit and figuring out some behind-the-scenes logistics, we decided it'd be better to roll them out at the end of this month. Apologies for the delay!
