GRIMKITTY Games - New IP on the way and updates on other projects!

Hey everyone! Today is a very special day, as we've got something special to announce, along with some information of our other projects and our plans for the remainder of the year!

The big news!

Today we're announcing that a brand new original IP is now in development starting today! We are taking our new found development knowledge from past releases of Original IPs and FANDOM Projects to develop a brand new fun game that you can play anywhere! This has been planned for a little while with just tiny ideas, similar to Flip Out Rush's development. However, this time we plan to go a little more in depth and organized with how development goes with plans for a development time, full fun public and online marketing, in-game event plans, future update releases, and planning out a release window! We have a lot of plans for this game, and we plan to support it for as long and as much as Flip Out Rush is planned to be! That being said, let's address something else!

How will this affect development and updates on other games?

The development time of other games and such, such as Nexitron and Project: MIDNIGHT, will be slightly affected by the development of this new IP. This is only for a short time however, as we have planned out a schedule for the remainder of the year for the development of our current big 3 priorities at the moment, those being Flip Out Rush, Nexitron, and this new IP. We have plans to release Update 1.8, the final update for the year for Flip Out Rush during it's development, with a brand new PC demo release, along with something else we'd like to discuss later in this blog. Nexitron Chapter Two, our most anticipated project, will be slightly developed as well to ensure we get our *planned (not final, but predicted release date) of Mid-2026!

Now, you said other thing?

Yes that is right. If you remember back during our Anniversary online event earlier this year, we had planned to develop a new account system for the entirety of GRIMKITTY Productions! We called it: Meow Accounts! These will hold your game data and allow you to transfer game progress to other devices, planned for all Original IP Games, for example, being able to transfer game progress from Flip Out Rush on Mobile to Flip Out Rush on PC! This is something that we mainly wanted to develop for Flip Out Rush, but our plan is to have this feature ready to launch alongside the new IP so you can instantly save your progress from launch day! This is important to the new IP because of the type of game it is, so we wanted to make Meow Accounts as big of a priority to work on as much as the new IP. We plan on releasing something during development to test out Meow Accounts to ensure they work as we want them to (One idea we had is to have certain save data from one IP transfer to another IP to give exclusive rewards! ex: Playing flip out rush and unlocking a exclusive item in another IP because you played the game, etc.).

This is all still very early, and development hasn't started on it yet, but our plans are ambitious, and while sometimes that's bad it's also good to have plans ahead of time! The main plan is to soft launch Meow Accounts with Flip Out Rush 1.8. This plan isn't set in stone yet, but our plans are lining up with it to ensure nothing goes wrong for the new IP launch. So yeah, Meow Accounts are expected to come this year too! And expect them to be fully ready for new players of our brand new IP right on launch! (If we CAN figure out how to do transfer rewards, possibly expect some Flip Out Rush ones as well!).

So what is this game and when will we hear more about it?

Unfortunately, we cannot talk about the game, just yet, however, this isn't just a random game we're starting on for fun like Flip Out Rush, countless hours of research, planning and brainstorming has been going on behind the scenes for the past couple of MONTHS! So this idea isn't just a random thing, we're announcing today, this has been planned out for a long while now. As you know, we like to sometimes give out "Expected release windows" for games and projects, and as you should remember, these aren't entirely accurate or set in stone, and you should always take them as concrete release dates, as they always change and are just an estimate! That being said, our "planned" release window makes this game our planned holiday release! This could change to a release sooner, or even later, but we are working hard alongside 2 other projects (F.O.R and Nexitron) to ensure we've got our hands working where they need to be!

While we didn't discuss much on this new game, expect a ton of fun to come out of it! Especially to our collector audience, wink wink! We can't wait to talk about this new game more soon! And we're so excited for you guys to meet Mika and Todd! They're excited to share this project with you too! (wink wink again!) We will share more information soon on all of the things we talked about today with Flip Out Rush Update 1.8, Nexitron Chapter Two, and our new IP! Working on 3 giant projects completely solo isn't easy, so please understand that things take time! See you all next time!
