Bellwood Times 2.0 - Submissions/Tech 10: Rebooted

At the time of this writing, the final two episodes of Tech 10: Rebooted are in production, and by the time this comes out, they will have aired already, finally ending the series I started three years ago that only lasted this long because of my laziness.

Well, since I'll probably have detailed some things about the next series in a blog, I'll stick to some stuff that I won't have revealed about this series for the article. Let's go for some nice, never-before-seen trivia:


 * The original concept of Tech 10: Rebooted was for a much nicer, 12-year old Tech to just kinda do random stuff and occasionally fight a drastically different Warlord Kroz for something called the Light Drive. Aquadilus's role was pretty much the same, whereas Alvono wasn't planned to make a return at all.
 * The concept then switched to a much darker tone, with Tech being around 14, having a gruff, no-nonsense personality, and using mostly redesigned aliens. His arch-nemesis was a human serial killer around his age that dispatched victims with a combination of alien abilities and a kitchen knife. I decided this was a bit much and switched to the current concept.
 * This series was written largely by the seat of my pants, with very little in the way of foreplanning until season 2. Even then, the season developed during writing, with some episodes being changed entirely. The ones changed are listed below, with their original descriptions:
 * Episode 4: Spend The Night: A strange hotel has been the site of many disappearances, prompting Tech's team to investigate.
 * Episode 9: Ancient History (replaced by Picking Up Steam): Kroz recruits Tech's team to help uncover the mystery of the ancient Specterians, which Vilgax happens to also be searching for.
 * Episode 10: If Earth Could Speak: Tech's team learns about the ancient war between the Galvans and Humans, while trying to stop The Obsidian Death from uncovering a dangerous artifact.
 * On one last note, Tech's team was initially going to be named the 'Shockwave Piledrivers', a term coined by Napoleon, of course.

I guess I'll just close this section by advertising the crossover movie Rebooted his having with Combalien Evolution, which will finally give some closure to that series. And it only took me, what, four years? Anyways, poster's right here:
