Upcoming projects - February 2024

Scrannin' With Jack: Jollibee (In production)

Channel: Jack Lad

The next episode of the peer-acclaimed (Jack's pals said they liked it) series is due to hit the web shortly, just over a year after the last episode. Set in Liverpool, Jack Lad and fellow cohorts from Indigo Blu put the Filipino fast-food giant to the test.


The Torture Express 3 (In production)

Channel: The Skengman

The Skengman will be finishing the trilogy of his classic series "The Torture Express" with an action-packed finale, involving modified office chairs to endure a dangerous course.


Games

The Balds: A Battle against Communism (In production)

Lead Dev: Jack Lad

The First game in the BaldsVerse is an RPG created with RPG Maker MV. The game will portray the balds fighting against “Comrade Cyka” as he attempts to conquer the North West of England. The game will be made up of maps of different scales, from "wild areas" to smaller towns full of houses, all of which will be explorable, and packed full of secrets. The game will be packed full of visual gags and jokes, to reflect the comedy of the BaldsVerse and almost every item will be interactive. In the game, you take on the role of Cecil Cecil and recruit the other balds to join your party and battle Comrade Cyka and his underlings. Since the last update, the map has undergone a third and final complete redesign and expansion, and the story has been rewritten from the ground up to ensure a cohesive story that will feel like a lived-in world as opposed to a game written and made during its production.


The Balds: Adventures in Plumbing (Planned)

A second game is planned which will use the RPG In a Box platform. This was originally planned to be created using the unreal engine but as of the moment, we lack the experience to bring this about. The game will feature an open-world environment where the player can take quests from the Balds characters. The game will allow players to become the character Cecil Cecil in a 3D environment. The game will feature Cecil travelling to a Hogwarts-style boarding school, where he will meet many balds characters, but instead of a school of magic, it's a plumbing school. Since the last update, the games' platform and scope have been changed.


Movies

The Balds Christmas carol (release date: a Christmas within the next decade)

Director: Jack Lad

Since the last update, the "animation" for the film has been completed in its entirety. The sound still needs to be completed, and due to the large cast, most of which all have full-time jobs, the timeline on how long this will take is unpredictable. Effects work is already in production, and final editing will be completed upon the delivery of the finished vocal work for missing characters.


Taking the lead: A Bald’s Story (In production)

Director: Jack Lad

Since the last update, the script has been expanded but is still not yet finished. Taking the lead is a dramatic delve into the mind of a hero and a villain. The story tackles the story of Dog Lead Man, a bounty hunter born in 1900 at the turn of the last century, a man who never ages as long as he eats a single carrot every day. Dog Lead Man will be going to war with crime lord Quentin Russo and his lackeys, including the Bannister brothers.


Series

Re-tales (In Production)

This series has been changed from a "the office" style series to a series of stories on TikTok instead of a dramatised retelling

Books and Comics

Book 2: The Disastrous Tale of the Balds (In production)
The second story in the Balds book series has begun production, it is being released periodically a chapter at a time and will introduce a whole new cast of characters, as well as the old favourites from the first book

Book 3: The Asynchronous Tale of the Balds (Planned)
The third story in the balds book series has been planned in full, writing will begin upon completion of book 2. This book will still be released a chapter at a time, but instead of being written while being released, the book will not begin to be released until the writing has been completed in full to allow for a higher-quality story

Comic 1: UNTITLED DOG LEAD MAN WW2 STORY (Planned)
A story has been planned to be told in a comic form showing the adventures of Dog Lead Man in his early life as a bounty hunter in WW2. it has been suggested that this project could be completed with the help of the community, with every panel being created by a different artist or creator

Cancelled and paused

some projects have been cancelled due to scale or not meeting the quality threshold for us to be happy to release a project

The Balds: Ultimate Custom Night (Cancelled)

This game would have been a Five Nights at Freddy's style horror game, however, we felt it was too derivative


Dog Lead Man: World War One (Indefinite Hiatus)

This would have been a historical first-person shooter, at the current time there is no one in the team with the skills or time to bring about this project. This project may come back at some point but at the current time it is not going ahead


Un-named The Balds Roblox Game (Cancelled)

No creative ideas came about from this project and it was cancelled as a result

Bald Ollie: Deliverance (Cancelled)

The Balds: Quest for a Btec (On Hiatus)

Untitled Balds Western (Cancelled)

This story will be adapted and converted into the third book in the Balds series as opposed to being a stand-alone series
