I apologise for being so forgetful with this thread lately

Submit a "brand" franchise!
Please submit a franchise that is a non-entertainment, non-factual brand. Something like our previous Pepsi and McDonald's seasons or Harley Davidson and Antarctica Tourism mini-seasons, though it doesn't have to be food.

I was considering resubmitting the Mars season but…it’s time to bring back a defunct brand in the multiverse being Hefty ZooPals! Surprisingly, I just found out that a revival may be on the horizon on Twitter so…perfect timing now. All of our seasons so far have been pretty much major pop culture landmarks. Therefore, why not do a more obscurer brand? Plus, this would be our first main season that will be wheel-heavy and our first main season without a vehicle as well. A Drifting Dimensions first!

The Raptor Rider will be the final vehicle
Kentucky Fried Chicken

KFC has a worldwide appeal and quite a lot of characters thanks to their unique approach to advertising.

Standard ratio makes the most sense here, IMO.

Racers: Colonel Sanders, Frederick Fox & Charlie Chickenhawx, and Clank.

Submit a mini-franchise that predates, but is similar to, another franchise on the roster!
They can be actually connected by inspiration or staff, or a coincidence. An example would be EarthBound for Undertale or The Flintstones for The Simpsons. This will have one racer, one track, and one vehicle.

Heathcliff (Predates Garfield)

It just got real.

Racer: Heathcliff with Ham Helmet
Kart: Ham Car
Track: Westfinster - Track: Heathcliff Theme

The Westfinster tracks starts you off in the Nutmeg house, then goes into the street, and finally the garbage dump. All the absurdism you'd expect from modern Heathcliff is present, with robots; fire-breathing chihuahuas; bands; brofish; bubblegum; Jimmy; helmets; beekeepers; tanks; and, if you're lucky, the Garbage Ape - as well as a few Catillac Cat easter eggs for the OG Heathers.

Drive through the city home of the modren stone aged family. Start at their home and drive through the city, through Fred's Work place, and more. You drive over dinosaurs and we could even throw in the Great Gazzo or even some hidden Jetsons cameos.

Predated Franchise:

Popeye
(Predates Mario)

IMG_0255.jpeg


Why not go with this classic cartoon and comics franchise that was the inspiration for our first franchise that got a season? A true cartoon and comic classic and he will probably be one of our oldest franchises on the DriDim roster if he joins.

Without Popeye, we wouldn’t have had the creation of Mario and his rivalry with Donkey Kong (well, in the original one, it’s Cranky Kong as a young gorilla).

If this franchise joins,we can possibly consider doing a Popeye Part 2 in the future with more content from the various incarnations of Popeye as well as other Thimble Theatre content.

Racer: Popeye
Kart: The Spinacher/Ship of Many Names (Wheelless Kart)
Track: Sweethaven
Music: I’m Popeye the Sailor Man


Basically, it’s a track that shows off all the different locations of the main port where the Popeye cartoons take place. Plus, various Popeye and other Thimble Theatre characters make cameo appearances. Bluto is a hazard though as he will try to kidnap the racers for a temporary time.

In fact, the racers can try and rescue Olive. If a racer races over the cage Olive is in, that racer will get a stat buff!

Predating franchise submission:
Dune (Predates Star wars)
1692019747084.png

Dune is a science-fiction franchise created by Frank Herbert and it takes place in outer space-like setting taking place in far future where galactic feud has been started while young Paul Atreides (main protagonist that can sense the truth) has to survive the harsh environments of galaxy and fight for resources of the desert planet & human destiny.

The book was very popular that kickstarted the franchise that was spawning movies, games and stuff. Once the franchise started to grow, the universe has been expanded by adding new locations, events and characters.

It even became an influence for many sci-fi media like Star Wars, Alien, Mass Effect and more of them.

Racer:
Paul Atreides
1692019869780.png


Kart:
Ornithopter (Wheelless kart)
1692019945626.png


Track:
Arrakis

Music track: Paul's dream - Dune (2021)
1692020094075.png
The race track takes place on planet Arrakis from Dune and the race track would be similar to Bone-Dry Dunes from Mario Kart 8, but it's themed after Dune's Arrakis (also the canyon-related stuff are replaced with cliffs or more dunes)
The race track hazards are Sandworms - basically giant sandworms that come out from the ground and eat anything the meet on their paths. They came out at any place just to block the racers' pathways and they can occasionally swallow the racer.


I think Dune could work as full franchise, but as mini franchise it could also make sense.


Anyway, franchise votes:

Captain Kangaroo

An extremely popular and influential kids show from the early days of television. Shares all of the same producers with Sesame Street, which it predates.

Racer: Captain Kangaroo & Mr. Moose

Vehicle: Yellow Schwinn (Bike)


Track: Treasure House (Song: Puffin' Billy)

Track is fairly small but its main gimmick is that there will be a different zoo animal to avoid each time, courtesy of Mr. Greenjeans. (They don't hurt you or anything they just stop your car like a wall)

Predating Franchise: Anton (Predates Pizza Tower)

Now this one I'm not 100% sure on due to the wildly different development histories of the two games involved; The first Pizza Tower demo predates Antonball Classic, but Antonball Deluxe predates Pizza Tower's official release, so I'm not 100% sure who predates who for the purposes of this job. All good if this one gets vetoed - I have tons of alternatives in mind - but I wanna get funny red guy in here, so might as well give it a shot.

Racer: Dynamite Anton
Kart: Mole Tank (Wheelless Kart)

Track: Boiler City (Dynamite Man for laps 1-2, It's Happy Hour! for lap 3)
A pretty standard course, but you'll notice some paths obstructed by blocks of four colors; There's four dynamite plungers scattered throughout the level, and activating them destroys their colored blocks, letting you access those paths in future laps.

While Dragon Ball was originally influential for not being like Fist of the North Star, it was absolutely an influence for the action during the Z era and beyond.

Understandable. Plan C time (plan b was dragon quest but cash just submitted that lol)

Roblox (Predates Minecraft)

Due to the heavy content-creation emphasis of Roblox (moreso than any video game season thus far), I tried to stick to "official" content - Nothing from Piggy, Despicable Forces, or anything like that.
