Session 1 of the Cybertopia playthrough of Data, Nerves +Acquisition.

Hey everyone, I realise it's our normal release day today but instead I'm hopping on to drop a wee update about what's gonna be happening with us for the rest of the year.

If you've listened to any of the post season 1 cast interviews, you'll know that we're doing a little city and faction building game before heading into season 2. Well, those are done and we've got 3 fantastic sessions recorded. There's video to accompany them too, so you'll be able to see the map developing as the games progress but I reckon the audio will also be plenty enough to understand what's going on, so I'll put that up on here too.

The bad news for you all, however is that because the sessions are much longer than our usual hour-ish slot and it doesn't really work with the game format to split them up, editing is taking a little longer than our normal episodes. That and it being video editing means it is a little more work in general anyway. So what this means is that we're going to change releases to monthly, rather than the current fortnightly drops. This is just for these next 3 episodes and then after that we'll be straight into season 2 episodes, which will be back to the original format. We've already recorded a few and I'm super pleased with how they went and really excited to get them out to you all.

If you're interested in checking out Data, Nerves and Acquisition yourselves, you can find it on my itch (bennewbon.itch.io) along with my other games, including Cybertopia, Overgrown and other bits and bobs - most of them are either PWYW or have a decent supply of community copies available, so please help yourselves! And as usual if you want to get in touch, leave a comment on the episode or contact me on Twitter or Bluesky on my handle, which is just my name bennewbon with no space or anything.

So to round it up: the first episode of Cybertopia: Data, Nerves and Acquisition will be out Tuesday 24th September and then it'll be 4 weeks to the next one and another 4 weeks later for the last one, which should then mean that the first episode of Cybertopia season 2 will go out 3rd December and then we'll be every 2 weeks from then on!

Thanks for your support and can't wait to chat to you all about all the things to come!

For our final inter-season cast member interview, listen in on me chatting with Aidan, who played Se-an, Amazing Corps' very own snake-jawed documentarian/hunter! He was featured in Greenhouse of Error, Signs of the Times and the rooftop clearance group in the House of Cards finale.

For our next cast interview before season 2 starts is Morgan, who played as the physically domineering, glamdrogenous Zappp. They've got everything Amazing Corps could need in a socialite with a knife fetish and sharp tongue, as can be heard in Experimental Procedures, Hostile Takeover and the kill team in the House of Cards finale.

Next up on our inter-season cast interviews is Basil. Xe played Clarity, Amazing Corps' quiet, unassuming drone herding hacker as heard in Hostile Takeover and the underground bomb-bot escort team in the House of Cards finale.

Our latest cast interview between seasons is with Pan, who played Nox, Amazing Corps vaguely loyal fun-loving easy-going hacker. You can hear them in our very first mission, Thieves in the Nightclub, our last mission Harbouring a Grudge and the roof clearance team from the House of Cards finale.
