THE JERK LIST
::2007, 13 October::

As promised, Episode 11 is here right on schedule!

Aaaaand, I'm not quite sure how I missed this, but Episode 9 also received Daily 4th Place on NewGrounds!


::2007, 18 September::

Hah. Soooo, now that it's been over a year since my last news update and almost two years since the episode 10 was released, I've finally found some time to get to work on completing the new things. Check out the release dates for the next few episodes!


Episode 11: Saturday, October 13th, 2007
Episode 12: Saturday, November 9th, 2007
Episode 13: Saturday, December 7th, 2007


::2006, 5 September::

Holy crap you bungles! Season 2, as I affectionately like to call it, is now in the works!!! Space Jerks Episodes 11-20 will be out shortly. No release schedule as of yet, but check back soon for updates!


::2005, 20 December::

Oh... hey. Didn't see you there. I'm taking a break until after the holidays, so there will be no new Jerks action until the New Year (most likely sometime in the middle of January). Keep checking back for other updates and goodies in the meantime, though.


::2005, 11 December::

Episode 10 - a day late, but it's here.


::2005, 26 November::

Episode 9 is here!


::2005, 12 November::

Episode 8, bunglers!

P.S. - Please post something in the forums!

::2005, 11 November::

Holy shnikes, I'm back from the land of ancient Vikings, stout beers and all things green and shamrocky. Things just keep getting stranger than fiction in my life, but I won't bore you with the details. The Jerks are getting into more trouble in Episode 8 than I had ever imagined they possibly could. It is sure going to fry your pantaloons when you find out what happens next. Saturday, dearies.

Oh and, crap, Episode 7 received Daily 4th Place on Newgrounds!


::2005, 21 October::

Apologies for the lack of updates, I've been shaving chinchillas all week and haven't had the chance to. Also, I am taking yet another vacation in a week or so, but instead of releasing Episode 8 early, I'm going to release it very, very late. Cry me a river, you wussies. I'll be posting the upcoming release dates for Space Jerks episodes soon, and I'm going to go ahead and do that now:

Episode 8 - November 12th
Episode 9 - November 26th
Episode 10 - December 10th


::2005, 15 October::

Episode 7 is out, you freaks!


::2005, 13 October::

Life has been insanely crazy and busy!! Episode 7, however, will be here on the 15th. More updates soon...


::2005, 1 October::

Welcome to October. Late in the day, yes, but Episode 6 is posted!


::2005, 26 September::

Episode 6 will be released as scheduled on October 1st, 2005. I'm currently trying to find the time to cut the extended scene for this episode to make it longer as many have expressed the opinion that certain episodes are too short. Either way, the episode will be here on time! Keep checking back for new goodies on the Extras page; new stuff will be up soon.


::2005, 17 September::

Episode 5 is here!!!


::2005, 5 September::

Whoa, Episode 4 received Daily 5th Place on Newgrounds, my first award!

I've just finished adding the extended cut scenes to Episode 5 (out Sept. 17th), which will blow your socks off if you enjoyed #4!

I expanded the Space Jerks FAQ.


::2005, 3 September::

Episode 4, out now!


::2005, 2 September::

Watch for Episode 4 on Newgrounds and on this website shortly after midnight tonight!

In other news, Episodes 10 and 11 are going great! First I wrote one script for Episode 10, but after recording and audio clean-up it ended up being so long I had to split it into two episodes. Thus, I am currently working on the animation for Episode 10 and the script for Episode 12 simultaneously. Holy geez, I can't wait for everyone to see what happens!

Future release dates:

Episode 4: Saturday, September 3rd, 2005 (tomorrow!)
Episode 5: Saturday, September 17th, 2005
Episode 6: Saturday, October 1st, 2005


::2005, 23 August::

Well, vacation was relaxing, but I'm glad to be sleeping in my own cave again. I just finished creating the first set of desktops for Skopper, MoonFace, and Ferguson, along with character profiles for each of them. The profiles won't be ready until tonight, but try to hold onto your junk until then.

Update: They're ready.


::2005, 17 August::

Before vacating the premises, I thought I'd leave you all with a pearl of wisdom:

"If I have one life to live, let me live it as a jerk." - Anonymous quote

Oh, and in case you weren't already tired of having your inbox filled with useless junk mail, now you can cram some Jerk mail into the mix by signing up to the "Official Space Jerks Spam Email Mailing List" above. Just kidding, we won't send out messages more than once every few weeks. Or seconds.

Thanks to all the wonderful reviewers and voters at NewGrounds.com for rating each Episode higher than the last! This can only continue for so long until the trend breaks, but at least for now it's nice to know that each one has had a Decent Score at minimum.


::2005, 14 August::

Quick update: I'm going on vacation next weekend, so Episode 3 has been released early. Watch.


::2005, 11 August::

Thanks again everyone! Here's some new info on the next couple of episodes, which as of this moment are complete and are tucked away on my PC, waiting to be seen:

Episode 3 is coming out on Saturday, August 20th, 2005.
Episode 4 will be released Saturday, September 3rd, 2005.

In other news, the Skopper soundboard is complete with soundbytes from the first eight episodes! Of course, I most likely will not be putting this up on the site until Episode 8 comes out. Also starting in the next few weeks will be full character profiles for the Jerks. Keep an eye out for other new junk coming soon...


::2005, 6 August::

Episode 2 is here! Watch it!


::2005, 3 August::

Thanks for the great NG feedback and reviews everyone! The next episode comes out this Saturday, I can't wait for you all to see it! In response to a few who said the first one was too short, this episode is about twice the length of the first one. I'm hoping to keep up to a new episode every two weeks, which should be no problem as long as I can stay ahead of the curve.


::2005, 24 July::

Episode 2 comes out on Saturday, August 6th, 2005.


::2005, 23 July::

It is done. The first episode has been released, both on this site and on NewGrounds.com.


::2005, 18 July::

Everything is coming along just right. I decided, after all, not to release Episode 1 until I'm finished (or at least close to finishing Episode 10). The way I see it, if no one likes this stuff, I'll at least have a decent collection of it for no one to watch.

I'm finding that the music is all coming together, and I've got a great selection to choose from. Rellik has a virtual library of tunes of different styles and moods, which has been a big help in setting the scene for many of the places and events that happen in Space Jerks. A big thanks to Rellik, who is a friend of my brother's and doesn't know anything about which songs I've been using from his collection, but has been gracious enough to offer the use of them in the first place.


::2005, 10 July::

Got the forum all set up and running late last night, after much speculation as to the color scheme and style. In the end, I designed a style that basically matches this site. Take a look.


::2005, 09 July::

I'm finally building a website to hold all this madness. If things go according to plan I'll be finished with Episode 5 by the middle of the week, at which point I will decide whether to start releasing Space Jerks or hold off until I've finished the 10th episode. Things couldn't have gone better thus far, and I'm really happy with the way everything is turning out. More to come...
