RTX and PAX

Posted by BoMToons - August 14th, 2015


Hey you guy-uys!

It's been a while, but I've been busy! I drove 30 hours to Austin TX to attend RTX. I brought my best friend with me and towed a trailer full of furniture to my mom's house in TX. My car didn't come with a trailer hitch so I had to install one myself... it was a huge pain in the butt (but that's another story). It was 85 degrees F in Phoenix at 5:00 am before the sun came up... at 7:30 am it was 102...

RTX was cool, people had actually heard of Chibi Knight and were excited to see that there is a sequel. A couple people had already bought Super Chibi Knight, so that gave me some warm fuzzies.

Here I am wondering how to set up my booth space:

Here are some peeps at the booth:

Meta inception or something of me playing a guy playing my game:

My buddy got this girl to pose in an SCK shirt in front of the booth:

It was really useful to see people playing the game in real life. I made a list of things to tweak and came home and put up a new version on Steam with all those tweaks immediately. It probably would have been helpful to do a few shows before releasing the game just to make the game that much more solid for launch... oh well... NEXT GAME!

Speaking of which, have you heard about BARFBARIANS? Check it out! Team Bobo from Abobo's Big Adventure is getting back together to tell the story of barbarians who get physically ill at the sight of violence, so they use their acidic stomach juices to vanquish their foes!


Most importantly: I'll be at PAX Prime in Seattle with Super Chibi Knight at the end of this month as part of the Indie Megabooth, please come say hi if you're there!

Much <3 to you all!

This is awesome, man! Glad to see ya doing it! Were there a lot of people at RTX?

I think they estimated 45k - I'm used to Comic Con though, so this was much more intimate :-D

I am going to my very first PAX Prime (and PAX Dev) this year! I am going to hunt you down at the event so I can meet you haha :D

Nice, I'll keep an eye out! :-D

Good luck at PAX Prime next weekend! Judging from the pics, you've got a nice setup!

That setup was for RTX, the indie megabooth at PAX sets everything up for you (so it fits their theme), so I'm just bringing a backpack to PAX!
