We had so much fun livestreaming the game earlier this week, we’re doing another one! Better yet, we’re actually scheduling this one, and it won’t be at ridiculous hours of the evening!

Catch us at picarto.tv/GremlinGrenade or picarto.tv/SilfoeArts at 12pm CST (or 10am PST, or 1pm EST… etc). The stream will be going for an undetermined amount of time (basically until all of us have about had it and can’t so much as stay awake anymore).

See you there!

I’ll be there, flailing at a text editor full of colourful words and symbols. (And on that note, picarto.tv/Katharine will also work.)

Come watch!

As previously mentioned, and as was also blindingly obvious on Twitter, I spent the weekend over in Baltimore at BronyCon! And now that it’s over, I shall ramble a bit. Quite a lot, in fact, so I’m gonna bury this wall of text, pictures and videos below the fold.

Hey everyone! Sorry about the very slow update, we’ve all crawled into our little development holes as we got ready for our upcoming BronyCon panel! And in that regards, we have two very important announcements:

First of all, for anyone looking forward to the panel, we will be presenting on Saturday at 10:30 pm. Sorry it’s so late, but if you’re there we promise to show you a good time!

For anyone attending the con, though, we have one other very special event…

You see, this guy has been a planned character for the game for a long time, a strategist that joins the player’s army when going down the New Lunar Republic path. Why doesn’t he have a monthly character feature, any previous showings or any other mention here on the blog? Because he doesn’t have a name! Quite frankly, we’re not the best at coming up with names, and anything we could think of didn’t seem just right. So, we’re going to do something special for him: we’re going to let you guys name him. At BronyCon, we will have strips and a hat for people to submit name ideas (sending an ask with a suggestion on here will also be okay), located at Silfoe and AssasinMonkey’s booth at the vendor hall, and, before the panel, we will pick our three favorites. Then, during the panel, we will have you, the fans, vote on your favorite of those, and that will be his name! It’s the least we can do to let our fans have a hoof in shaping the game’s future, and making sure it’s the best experience possible.

For anyone at the convention, we look forward to seeing you! And to anyone who won’t be there, we’ll miss you, and look forward to a recording of the panel!

I’m on this thing! Come say hi! And then at the very last panel on Sunday I’ll be talking about it (and software development in general) again!

(Should I use fewer exclamation marks? Nah.)
