The first six episodes form a loosely connected mini-arc, which was created to represent a cross-section of the series. The series was created by Ian Jones-Quartey, well known for his work on Adventure Time and Steven Universe. Speaking to Deadline, Jones-Quartey said that video games and animation have much in common and, “having fun is the main goal. OK K.O.! is a video game-inspired world expressed through the language of animation, but mostly an adventurous playground with heart-warming heroes who battle against robots.”

A console game for the series, developed with indie video game studio Capybara Games, is set be released later in the fall.
