Prepare for Smush and Grind
🕑 Added 2021-08-17 15:00:07 +0000 UTCDear Insane Children,
Remember in Alice: Madness Returns when Alice goes to confront March Hare and Dormouse in Hatter's domain and they pop up driving a giant mech robot? You can watch a clip from the game over on YouTube.
Well... they're back. And so is the mech robot!
It all takes place inside the Memory Mines...
And Norm is working on a series of images to illustrate the encounter and eventual boss battle.
He sent over a really fantastic sketch this morning...
Let us know in the comments below what you think of this boss battle. Are you happy to see these two make a return to finish what was started in Madness Returns?
Now... prepare to have your hopes and dreams smushed (a little)... There will be NO live stream this week. Sorry! But I have to drive Yan and her mom back down the the old hometown for some personal business.
We'll try to reschedule for the week following...
In the meantime, dry your eyes! Because there's something awesome coming later this week...
** The Release of the Full Alice: Asylum Narrative Document **
That's right! It's in the final stages of prep for presentation to you. Alex is doing a last pass to format and prep it as a PDF that we can share here on Patreon. And I think he'll be finished before the end of this week. So... get ready!
It's a beast... 88 pages when I checked this morning. But I think by the time Alex has reformatted it and added more images... it's going to be 100+ pages.
And we'll be asking you to read it, read it again, and then provide your comments and feedback. Crowd Design! Woo!

Look... even Alice is smiling!
Can't wait to hear your feedback!

I'm absolutely ecstatic seeing the return of that machine, we were so denied a good fight. Now we get it and it's a wonderful feeling to be eager for. As for Bill and Alice here, that's so cute. Sometimes you need to kick your friends ass so they can be sane again. Cheshire looks so satisfied.

That fake-out in Madness Returns was a sequence I recently streamed. Always a hoot.

I’m very glad to see the mech making a return, and even more excited for the release of the narrative outline!

We get to fight that mech now? Yes!!!
Well that's all just super exciting, the boss battle that never was will finally be (though it was quite funny!) everything is really moving along now :). Love the artwork by Adam and I hope your family has a safe speedy trip to take care of business.

This is quite awesome. I love the map concept. Funny enough I never loved or remotely liked giant boss fights. They never feel like a real fight.

I just noticed that. It is quite refreshing.
Nice to see Alice smiling for once! And yes, bring on the robot!

This was one of my favorite things in Madness Returns! I'm so excited for another showdown!

A chance to actually fight that boss proper? Heck yeah!!
This is a great idea! It makes it feel that in alice madness returns it hints at what is to come in the future. When I got to the end there I was so ready to fight but ya know, this means I can get that same feeling again from this. It is super exciting! 🖤
I liked him a lot in alice madness returs and would love to see him again 🖤
Sarah Heist
Oh man that's so exciting! What's the next steps after getting the narrative finished?
