HAPPY #BENDYVERSARY!!!
9 Years since we entered the studio and heard Henry say “Alright Joey.. I’m here. Let’s see if you can find what you wanted me to see.”
The fact that #BENDY has become such a part of gaming culture is so amazing to me. And there’s so much more to come!
there's currently 6 games in development for bendy. two of which are cage and batif. cage having the priority at the moment, while batif remains in our internal version pre-production where we continuously discuss the game but don't implement anything as that time is slated for cage. the remaining titles are either outsourced or already developed, we're in no rush with these projects, we want to take our time and do things the best we can. also because there's a number of other projects in mind that we want to wait for the right time and/or team.
aside from the games, we're still deep in development on the movie, which is in an exciting phase right now. i'm still on the hunt for both 2d and 3d animation studios to work with on various series, yes both. and we're also working on some other bendy collabs and stuff, primarily products more so than games. There's currently only 1 game related collab that's in talks, and has been for a while, and probably the only one we'll entertain until something intriguing comes along.
in any event, this long winded post is just me giving you all a random update on things being worked on, and is also by no means confirming anything, but I'm sure dots that don't exist will be connected :P
Take this as your average update from mike saying "yup, still working on lots of stuff with nothing to show" as is typical fashion here at Joey Drew Studios.
Also for what it's worth, unit sales of all bendy games have increased, even without discounts active, so there's still waves of new audiences yet to experience Bendy. and hopefully soon this year new players will get the best experience once our updates come out for all the games on all platforms.
ANYWAYS, i'm gonna go get another coffee and work on the cage. ✌️
Hi, Bendy fans!
I really hope you all enjoyed our April Fool's Day video this year. :) I had a blast making it, and reuniting some important horror faces.
Thanks so much to the incredible creators whose characters have been so iconic and mean so much to all of us.
Now that the fun of April Fool's Day is over,
I personally wanted to talk about the upcoming 414 day.
We've been working every day on "Bendy: The Cage" and several other major projects, and we wanted to have some cool things to show for 414.
But we realized the deadline was putting major pressure on the team, and was taking away from time we want to spend just making the games/projects good.
So 414 will be a very minimal event this year. There's no major news coming at this time.
Just some small goodies. :)
We love what we do and care about it deeply.
We don't want to release underbaked or false promises.
We actually want to respect our players and fans.
Hype is fun.. but actual substance is what makes the things we love worthwhile.
That said, there is plenty of Bendy stuff coming!.. big and small. TONS, actually!
It just isn't ready yet.
When it does, you'll be nicely overwhelmed with how much will hit you. :)
Thanks to everyone! Thank you for being a Bendy fan!

I “doodle painted” #BENDY in Photoshop while on a call today.. it’s fun to play with different styles when you aren’t paying hugely attention to what you’re drawing. 😄 How was YOUR day! 🙂
