Upcoming Content, Ace Creators Partnership and More!

Few announcements to make today.

KC and Marty should be wrapping up DMC 5 this evening, which means their next stream series is just around the corner! They'll be moving on for KC's first time playing through the Metroid Prime series.

Our PAX West content is also edited and ready to go. Tomorrow you'll be getting our really fun Scavenger Hunt video we filmed, and on Monday you'll be getting our Favorite Games of PAX West video.

Tomorrow Marty and Jack will also be streaming the opening hours of the new Zelda game at 9 AM CT. So, wake up bright and early for that one, should be a fun time.

October is also just a few days away which means the team will be doing some special livestreams throughout the month playing through horror games as per our yearly tradition!

ACE CREATORS PARTNERSHIP

Next, you may have seen we've partnered with Ace Creators. They're an influencer management agency that will help us with acquiring bigger brand sponsorship deals going forward like you've already seen via a different agency on Fully Ramblomatic (NordVPN, Manscaped, etc).

They're a smaller more focused agency, however, so we're hoping to get more brand deals that are better targeted at our audience. They just earn commission on deals they make, so this comes at zero cost to Second Wind.

On our end we'll continue working on our own sponsors for indie games and smaller companies like Roll for Combat as we have been, and some work for hire projects completely separate from our sponsorship campaigns.

No changes to how we do ads, where they're placed, and we still have full creative control like we have been doing them. 

ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY SOON

Lastly our Patreon has obviously taken a dip over the last couple months with recent events. Our next quarterly financial report will be out in early October. We're doing OK and we would let the community know if we were not!

However, we would like to get that number going back in the right direction so we'll be starting to soft promote the Patreon again next month before our one year anniversary in November (seriously, it's already been one year!). If you haven't joined up yet, now would be a great time to do so if you'd like to support what we make here.

We're planning a big livestream event for our one year to celebrate, new merch and more. We'll let you know when that stream will be in the next couple weeks.

As always, thank you for your support and have a good day!
