'Bru & Boegie: EPISODE 2 - Get da SUGAR!' Announced!
Welcome, friends! Some exciting Bru & Boegie news in this post!
Episode 2 has been announced! Ha cha cha cha. We pick things up directly after the events of Episode 1. It's now... time to 'Get da SUGAR!'. Ma boi Bru gotta get a coffee somehow. I've completed much of the story outlining and plan to start production on it once I'm done with Episode 1's launch preps.
Episode 2 is shaping up to be roughly twice the length of Episode 1, also featuring a fully-voiced cast and original soundtrack, with even more bizarre characters, environments and puzzles - overall, more of the good stuff. I have plans for the Episode 3 finale too, but one thing at a time.

Bru & Boegie: Episode 1 - Demo Incoming
The freely downloadable Episode 1 Steam demo will be launching in a couple of weeks. I plan to submit the demo for Steam’s NextFest that happens in October, where the eyeballs of an entirely new audience will be exposed to Bru’s extremely bright tighty whities, intended to dazzle and amaze. I plan to launch the full game shortly afterwards.
The Steam version features improved audio treatment and balancing, re-processed voices and some new environmental audio effects. There’s also 14 Steam Achievements and also Steam Cloud Saves, so players should be able to sync saves across devices, and play the demo and continue their progress in the full game. I'm planning to add a couple more options too. The Steam version will be by far the best way to experience the game.
I plan to launch the free public Steam demo next month in August, and then the full game on October 29 this year.

Bru & Boegie 2025 MEGA UPDATE Video
I recently posted a video detailing all my videogame and animation Bru & Boegie updates, including my 10-min animated Bru & Boegie short ‘METEORITE’ that I completed animation on a couple of weeks ago. I decided this year to focus on my own projects, so I’ve ONLY been doing Bru & Boegie work - it’s been fantastic, all-consuming, and there’s always more to do.
In the video above, I share some of my process for designing the backgrounds for Episode 2:
Also, after the game launched on itch.io I wrote a post-launch blog on my website with further thoughts and insights:
