Reality Resort: Updates
🏝️ Our Kickstarter Campaign is COMPLETE!
We officially did it! Thanks to you, we surpassed our funding goal to greenlight Episodes 7–10 of Reality Resort! Here are some fun final stats:
$31,473 total raised (104% funded!)
$132 average pledge
237 backers
50 Victoria plushies claimed
Most popular tier (54 backers): $5 (Supporter)
Most money raised tier (11 backers): $1,000 (Executive)
From longtime fans to first-time supporters, friends, family, and everyone in between — THANK YOU for believing in this project. Your support has given us the chance to tell more thrilling, emotional, chaotic, and hilarious stories with this cast.
Late pledges will be available on Kickstarter for a short period of time if you missed the campaign. Also, if you backed a tier with physical or digital perks, you’ll receive a survey shortly to confirm your info. And soon after that, rewards will start rolling out!
Episodes 7–10, here we come.
🎬 Episode 7: In Production Now!
While pre-production wrapped a while ago, layout began this week and animation starts next week. We’re aiming for a late July release (exact date TBD).
As always, a trailer will drop ~1–2 weeks prior to release and be available to all Patreon tiers 24 hours early before going public (only on Patreon)!
We’ll continue to update you on the process as things move along — but rest assured, the episode is already coming together beautifully.
💡 New Patreon Perks!
Speaking of, now that we’re entering the post-campaign phase, we’ve restructured our Patreon tiers to give you more value and help support the series long-term. Here’s what’s changed:

We’ll continue monitoring how early access works to protect the viewing experience. So far, this community has been incredibly respectful — but if spoilers or leaks become a problem, we’ll make adjustments.
Thank you again to all our patrons. Your support helps keep the team working and allows us to keep telling the story.
🔮 What’s Next for Reality Resort?
We’re beyond grateful to have reached our funding goal for Episodes 7–10. But, as many of you know — that’s only half the season.
While this campaign has bought us the time and resources to move forward, we’re actively pursuing funding for Episodes 11–18. Whether that’s through new partnerships, sponsorships, or platforms, we’re leaving no stone unturned.
There’s a possibility of launching a second Kickstarter campaign for the back half of the season — ideally around Episode 9’s release — but we’re hoping to avoid that if other avenues come through.
If we can secure full-season funding, we’ll be able to expand our animation team, bring on more artists, and unlock some of our most ambitious ideas yet — including musical and mystery-themed episodes.
Thanks to you, we’ve bought ourselves a window and we plan to make the most of it.
💙 THANK YOU!!
Reality Resort is a love letter to reality competition shows, and like any love letter, it takes time, money, energy, and a ton of passion to pull off. Your support means the world and without it, this series wouldn’t exist.
We’re hard at work getting rewards out to you, finishing Episode 7, and planning for what’s next. Whether you backed the campaign, joined the Patreon, or even just shared the project — thank you for being a part of this journey.
