I have no use for this product, but it is the only way I know how to support Oats Studios. Shorts were great and I want more.

If you saw the free version, and I'm sure you did, then I implore you to grab this package immediately. Not only will it support the creators in making future content, the video quality is far superior to just streaming online. Very little to zero compression by comparison. Also, the 5.1 audio track is a nice addition to the bonus content, as well as the INCREDIBLE concept art book. Hopefully the soundtrack gets added to the DLC in the future! Great job Oats Studios, I can't wait to see what else you've got in store for us.

First of all... this is pretty much the equivalent of a pilot... a short made to show up an idea for a feature movie. So if you're looking for a complete story, you're not gonna get it. That said, it's still one of the best production samples and/or short movies I've seen. Takes a very interesting premise, which for some reason so far almost no proper movie or serie managed to got right, and rolls with it to the extreme. Lots of dark and bleak imagery, but also very well made and mesmerizing to watch. And the whole "alien lizardmen covered in nanites" design is something that I just love, both in concept and in execution. As for the content in the Assetts Pack... you get a very meaty digital artbook, a full quality downloadable version of the short itself, a digital copy of its script and a 3D-printable model of one of the aliens from the movie. All for less than the price of a movie ticket. If you like well made dark science-fiction, and want to support an indipendent studio tha...

I think the content is a little bit lite, I know they want to add more, they said they want give us raw stuff to play with and I'm waiting for it. I really wish to see props, aliens, textures, HDRi, etc. to train myself or create fan made content. Steam seems to not be really ready (technically) to have this type of stuff though. I mean, going to DLC to downloading stuff it's weird, no details of what you're downloading, it's very raw. I'm sure Steam could do a nice UI for this type of content. But overall, I really support the initiative and the format who give us more than just something to watch.

This product is basically to support OatsStudio and Neill Blomkamp to make more shorts and try a direct fan funding projects. Currently there are 3 DLC’s. Each bought individually and contain assets of each project. For me personally, i cared for the high quality video, script and concept art. 3D models aren’t of use for me, not now at least, i would 3D print the models if there is a store near me. They look great tbh. For those who know and want to play around with those models, i believe the second and third DLC’s have models that support editing. I knew what’s in it before i bought it and i can’t complain because this is a mere support ticket… gun to my head ? i would really appreciate high quality posters. I would print those mothers in a heartbeat. Oh and hey Neill :D

ORIGINAL RAKKA REVIEW: Cool short. Some clear The Terminator influence which is fine by me! The movie is 30+ years old! I've always wanted to see more of the underground humanity horror from the original film. The filthy food, the radios and crying people in the sound design, general despair. I really support what Oats Studios is trying to achieve here. I hope that this new model of filmmaking can open avenues for both Blomkamp and the Oats team, as well as other filmmakers who may attempt to start similar companies in the future. Best of luck Oats! FIREBASE UPDATE: This was just awesome. Rakka was cool... but I enjoyed Firebase on another level. The mixture/merger of supernatural and science fiction in regards to Rivergods powers was really cool. While it had some clear influences (what doesn't? And I suppose anything set in a jungle with sci fi will have Predator'ish vibes) this felt original and fresh. The visual effects, body horror, and Rivergod himself as a villian were badass....

Make no mistake friends, this is the future of film making. Neil is trying something new, a way of giving people who buy movies more bang for their buck. I think we can agree it would awesome to see all films do this kind of thing. On top of that, the short it's self is awesome and that alone is worth the support. I would love to see this world fully realized. If you support great innovative ideas in film, this is how you support it and make it as good a possible.

A must watch. This stuff is superb! Bring on volume 2

Bought it for support , brilliance like this needs it !

Volume One is outstanding, bought this to support for more videos!
