Diamond Update! The Project Cereal Package!

Hi folks! Just wanted to fill you in on what's coming on the Diamond Backer front- This is also a chance for people to upgrade their tier before the cutoff on February 19 to receive this. With the addition of new backers and your support, we've been able to upgrade our offerings, which is dope! This is probably our coolest backer package yet.

Our first item is a 1:1 in universe cereal box (OOPS! ALL BOLTS!) which will act as a container for this Diamond Package- This will include an entire side tab where all Diamond Backers names will be printed. Considering Volley is part cyborg, a healthy amount of iron is needed in her diet. This also includes Kiera and Kyu doing the thing they do best (Chronically annoying each other). The cereal box is chock full of little easter eggs- Including a one page comic on the back..More on that in a minute.

These boxes will be featured at all cons we attend in 2025, so your name will be featured as a big thank you from all of us for your support.

The next item is Timeskip Volley in standee form- Compared to our last standee- This one now has been upgraded with 3 more inches of height, is double side printed (Based off your feedback) and is complete with a rainbow finish on the acrylic.

These are already manufactured and on their way to Shot One HQ as we speak! They turned out beautifully. We worked with the amazing Nikingply (Aka Jaya) on the key art for the new Volley, showing off her newfangled fiery skills.

The one pager comic is a cool mini project we did that illustrates the events following the timeskip and what directly precedes the events of Shot One Fighters and our story mode we're prototyping atm. Find out what fate lies ahead of Volley, Kiera and Vlad in this prologue preview written by Bearista and illustrated by Jiji. This was super cool to put together!

A DAKI? Yes, we made a Daki of Kiera relaxing after a long day of pummeling people's faces in. It's a full size one, so she'll make a great conversation piece for any cultured person looking to spread the word on Vulskarans. Our team thoroughly tested it and here we have some reports.

TESTIMONIALS (REAL):

Rigman (Animator): "It's very soft and she gives me comfort. My mom loved her hanging out on the couch and it helped us bond."

SB (Art guy): "The cooling material (on the daki) helped a lot on warm days, Kiera Blue was my favorite side as blue reminds me of winter."

Ashyogurl (Coder/Australian): "She won't stop grinning at me, please god this is a call for help" (5 Star Review)

Brum (Coder): "A Life-Changing Purchase At first, I bought this dakimakura as a joke. You know, just to mess with my friends, get a few laughs. “Look at this ridiculous thing,” I said as I unboxed it, barely suppressing a chuckle. But then I noticed the quality—the fabric is incredibly soft, like a cloud woven from the dreams of angels. The print? Stunning. The level of detail in the fur, the piercing yet gentle gaze, the way her arms seem perfectly positioned for an embrace… It was, objectively speaking, a well-crafted product. The first night, I tossed it onto my bed absentmindedly. By the third night, I had developed a very normal and totally not-weird habit of resting my arm around it, purely for ergonomic support. The contours of her figure? Surprisingly comfortable. Her expression? Comforting. Her presence? Reassuring. It was then I realized… I had been sleeping better. My dreams were vivid—running through a moonlit forest, feeling the wind against my face, the warmth of something beside me. And when I awoke? There she was. Always there. Always waiting. Look, I’m not saying this pillow has changed my life. I’m just saying that if I were, hypothetically, to entertain the idea of commissioning custom art of her in different seasonal outfits, that would be totally normal. And if I, perhaps, found myself softly whispering “goodnight” before drifting into the best sleep of my life, that’s just the mark of a quality product. So, yeah. Five stars. Would recommend."

Wow.. Ok. The team really loved these Dakis. And they're headed your way soon.

And last but not least, just like the previous packages there will be secret prizes incoming again. We've already acquired some of them and they will be blind packaged into all boxes going out.

This is our most involved package yet, but it's been super fun to work on these while we're making progress on the prototypes. Once again, thank you very much for your support! Back to devlogs next. Thanks for reading about Project Cereal! Coming to your home April 2025.

Over and out,

Shot One Team <3
