Our team is on a mission to bring you the most badass animated series and video game you’ve ever seen. Thanks for checking out our Patreon, my name is David the creator of AZUREUS. We're animators and artists that are sick of the same tired, recycled material that plagues the industry. We're giving you an immersive experience that flat-out rocks. There have been a few diamonds in the rough for 3D animation; Arcane, Love Death & Robots, Spiderverse, Astartes… is that really it!? This is where AZUREUS comes in.

WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES

Everything we do is done in our spare time, unfunded, under the full moon. Your pledge will greatly boost our production and allow us to release more content faster. 100% of all the money we receive goes towards hiring artists, technicians, and musicians to help us create the AZUREUS Animated Series & Video Game.

OVERVIEW OF THE SERIES

Because of the complexity of the animation and our limited financial resources, we are creating and releasing AZUREUS in Chapters. These Chapters link together to form episodes. The episodes link together to form one massive overarching story. The more funding we receive, the faster we can release Chapters/Episodes. At its core, Azureus is a personal story about revenge, love, and loss. On the surface, Azureus is an action-adventure war epic set in space.

WHO IS AZUREUS

AZUREUS is an intergalactic warrior who uses special technology to navigate a series of parallel worlds controlled by a sinister enemy. A quest for revenge evolves into a world-bending journey that will leave the fate of the realm in the balance. Who "AZUREUS" is and what he looks like under the mask will be an ongoing mystery throughout the series and video games. AZUREUS is a very atypical protagonist, especially when it comes to animation.

OVERVIEW OF THE GAME

We are developing an insane 3D meets 2D combat-based side scroller for mobile, PC, and console. The game is directly linked to the global AZUREUS world and the series. We will take full advantage of the combat elements and unique world and story aspects of Azueus. It's going to look super flashy and be very fast-paced and fluid. I promise you this game is going to take the side-scrolling combat genre to new territory. Wait till you see how dope this thing is going to look and play.

WHY PATREON

Rather than wish upon a star that major streaming platforms will give us an opportunity, or a game publisher will pick us up, we are taking charge on our own. Our team has the talent, technology, and experience to produce a world-class animated series and video game. Rather than sit around talking about how cool it would be... we decided to get to work. This is why we created this Patreon and why your support is so important!

THE TEAM

In order to produce the quality of animation, storytelling, and game-making that AZUREUS needed BLACK SUN ENTERTAINMENT partnered up with award-winning animation studio ALTERED FX and its newly formed gaming division ALTERED INTERACTIVE (AI). Together this is the ultimate super team of directors, writers, designers, animators, programmers, producers, artists, and audio experts from around the world.
