Yo guys. We're back again this year. $6600 this year ($12K raised at our venue) and $10K for us over the last two years. Our only option is

BIGGER

We've partnered with Boston FIG this year and our in-person event at the Cambridge Innovation Center here in Boston is going to have a bunch of local indie devs come by, set up shop, and show off some games. We've also partnered with Balance Patch (the site of our FGC weeklies) and Traveling Controller (the guys what with all the fightygames) to have a few setups and some knowledgeable players to show you how to beat all your friends. Click on up here for Twitch, EventBrite, and our Extra Life page itself:

I can't be a cool kid and give out a schedule because this year I am flying mostly by the seat of my pants. GANG BEASTS WILL BE INVOLVED AND ALSO A SHIT-TON OF NERDS ON MY COUCH.

Hey guys, hey! This week, one Mr. Specter has a prior engagement, but fortunately the GB FGC Discord has people to help him out. Perhaps unfortunately for all concerned, that people is me, but it'll be a good time! We'll be streaming over on my Twitch channel this time around and the archives, unless Mr. Specter and I can fiddle something together, will be posted over on my YouTube channel.

I expect to go live a little earlier than usual, probably around 7:45PM Eastern or so, just to make sure we've got all the kinks hammered out by go-time at 8PM Eastern.

Come on by - it'll be a fun one!

We finished at 10AM today and, woof. Pictures, 'til I get a highlight video cut together:

Extra Life at the CIC (I think that link will work, if not I'll upload 'em somewhere)

Rich Gallup gave us twenty-five bucks for that An Art. I'm not sure if he underpaid or really, really overpaid.

We've just hit our goal of $5000 and upped to $6000. Thanks!

@boonsong: It's not the original game (a bunch of stuff is subtly different), but I'm pretty sure all the levels are from the original.

@sgtsphynx: Hold onto your butt, then, it's gonna go places.

There are a couple other that scenes in the game, to be fair.

@sgtsphynx: I wasn't even saying "what the fuck". I was mostly howling with laughter and wanting to hug every one of those developers. I feel like, being on Giant Bomb, "dumb and good" should be understood as a positive, but just to be sure: hell yeah.

Where are you hearing that?
