4ever2600 Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 No, that is an enormous amount of work. ..Al I kind of thought so given the verbiage you used on the front page article. Still glad though you going to be there don't get me wrong. I'm also thinking of the hundreds of dollars you're saving me by not bringing things to sell...

+swlovinist Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Also for those people who missed out on my previous games I published, I will have copies of the 2600 games Ature, Catacombs of Chaos, and Game Panic available at the show. I also will have a homebrew nes game Cowltiz Gamers Adventure as well. These games will have a portion of proceeds go to fund future homebrews of shows. ALSO, I will have a PRGE exclusive game Game Panic II for both Sega Genesis and Sega CD at the show. 40 copies of the game will be made. Come to the PRGE musuem to purchase these and say hello! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
