Mochi Cast + Miley Deadline still set for Halloween(Plus details on future roles).
First off, once again I was just blown away by the response to this project, I can't believe how much traction it's gained and I just want to say thank you to everybody; it means a ton, truly.
Second off, I want to thank each and every person who auditioned for Mochi and I'll be the first to admit it was not an easy role to cast. Even putting aside how many auditions I got, and I downloaded and listened to every single one with my best friend going through all of them with me, it was still not easy to cast. My intial "Shortlist" was 30 auditions, and over the course of several hours into the morning of the 15th, my friend and I debated and went through the shortlist before finally deciding on someone...To that end, we want to give a huge congratulations to the amazing Maeganne Bertone! Fantastic voice, fantastic tone with what we were looking for concerning Mochi with both her onstream voice and off stream voice; and we're so excited to have them voicing her, so a huge congratulations to them!
Third off, just a reminder Miley's deadline is still set for Halloween, so feel free to audition and re-audition as many times as you want!
Finally, concerning future roles, it does entirely depend on how well the game does initially. Now I'm not expecting a blockbuster, just getting a single sale will be considered a milestone for myself, and even if not a single copy is sold then I won't abandon the project. However, if it does sell well, I can buy art and pay talent faster lol. So, a safe estimate for the next character audition after Miley is December 1st, as even if the game isn't out by then, I will still have enough to pay a talent.
So all that said, thank you again to everyone for the amazing participation, and I can't wait to listen to everyone as Miley as this project moves forward; Thank you!
