Welcome to another episode of BREAKING Protocol from The Razzle Dazzle Show — our ongoing mini-series where we break down key updates and design questions straight from the development of SHADE Protocol. These episodes are built around the game’s community engagement series, Devs Ask You, or DAUs — where Kendall and the team not only show what’s changing, but invite fans to shape the journey with them. 

This DAU is all about Harmonies, SHADE Protocol’s ultimate abilities system. The team is toying with how to bring big cinematic combat moments to the forefront of gameplay — without making them feel too rare or disconnected from player control. In this minisode, we’ll explore the concept, the inspiration, and how the community weighed in on what makes a satisfying ultimate ability in a Metroidvania.

This week we have Erik Jensen — actor, writer, director, and storyteller known for his roles in The Walking Dead and Mr. Robot, on the show!

After recently completing treatment for stage-4 colorectal cancer, Erik joins us to talk about resilience, comics, creativity, and the stories that helped carry him through one of the hardest chapters of his life. We also dive into his award-winning film Brooklyn, Minnesota, acting alongside his daughter, and why he’s now selling much of his personal comic collection to raise money for Sloan Kettering’s Children’s Cancer Center.

This is a heartfelt conversation about survival, fandom, family, and the power of storytelling when we need it most.
