Our last update was a free patreon video in June, mentioning the chaos of this year and that we’d hope to start recording Riptide in August, if we finished Wonderlust by then. It’s October and we have not reached that point still. Sincerest apologies for taking longer to update again. We’ll likely stick to written updates from now on so it’s easier to digest and actually gets pushed to the website. Although, Bizly handles merch updates, so he may continue his powerpoint presentations for those.

We put Riptide on hiatus with an approximate end time of 6 months back in Dec 2023. It has been nearly a full year since, and so to elaborate a little more, here is what has been happening and where we are at.

Shortly afterwards, in January, our team structure behind the scenes completely changed. This caused us to have less time recording with Charlie as he planned to pursue other projects more.

We then began prepping Wonderlust to fill the public content void, which we wanted to film to completion in person. This took a month to book and was scheduled once the team transition completed in April. Then, Condi was held at the border, unable to fly out, causing a huge upset in our plans. This ultimately led to us filming 7 out of 24 planned episodes. Thanks Canada. We since decided we will have to stick to online recording indefinitely.

There was weeks in between recording episode 7 & 8 of Wonderlust, as we all figured out how to set up individual greenscreens while two of us were in the process of packing and moving cities / states. This probably explains how we forgot Troy unshit his pants.

Since then we have been recording online, working around the cast’s constantly varying schedules. We have recorded up to episode 13, so you can probably guess how difficult it has been to get the four of us together consistently. However, next month we will likely have Charlie back full time, which will be a big boon!

Even when we have Charlie back full time, we still limit ourselves to recording two campaigns in every week we are all available, which means we will have to finish recording Wonderlust before we can begin recording Riptide.

Theres not an exact date on when we will finish Wonderlust. It is our currently active main campaign and Bizly does not want to rush it or be made to feel like he should. Even with our recordings scheduled out, it’s hard to be sure.

We estimate we start recording and uploading riptide March-June next year. Whenever we get closer, we will update with more concrete dates.

Rarely does a D&D show do two campaigns at once utilizing the same cast. While we try our best, we are ultimately a small team of independent creators with more going on outside of the show.

We care tremendously about all of our campaigns and characters. They are very personal for us and we are grateful so many people enjoy what we create and share. We hope you’ll continue to enjoy Wonderlust & Judgement when it begins.

Thanks for understanding, and being patient!

We’ll update again when the situation develops.

TL;DR: why are you not reading the full post coward????
