FORT90 X BABYCASTLES PRESENTS HARDCORE FEELINGS

Fort90 X Babycastles

Attract Mode's east coast warrior, Matt Hawkins, is curating a fine selection of games next month at Babycastles, NYC's best indie game arcade. Most of the games will be there all month, but the opening party is the must-attend if you live anywhere near New York. It's also the only night you can check out Super Hypercube due to all the specialized hardware involved. Check out the details below. Hmmm, I wonder how cheap the flights are from LA to NYC right now…

Game Over 3 Now Open at GRSF

The Game Over 3 opening was on Friday night at GRSF. Unlike last year I wasn't involved in producing any artxgame collaborations for the show this time, which was actually pretty nice. Last year was awesome, but this year I got to relax and enjoy the art and good vibes.

The art was even more impressive this year! I personally have soft spot for Calvin Wong's the twenty five year old itch and the wooden SNES cartridges by Team Macho. Check out the gallery below for more photos, and make sure you get to GRSF before the show ends on April 14th. If you can't make it to the show, you can also buy pieces at GRSF's online gallery. (At the time of this post, they haven't updated the gallery with the Game Over 3 pieces yet.)

New Products: Miniboss T-shirt, Unicorn Dream Attack CD and Bogus Journey Instruction Booklet

Miniboss T-shirt, Unicorn Dream Attack CD, Calvin & Hellen's Bogus Journey Instruction Booklet

I just added 3 new products to the shop.

Miniboss T-shirt by SEIBEI — $22
Unicorn Dream Attack - Love Bits — $12
Calvin & Hellen's Bogus Journey Instruction Booklet — $4

The Miniboss t-shirt was designed by David Murray for his t-shirt company, SEIBEI. David is a cool dude, and he's got a lot of talent, so expect more SEIBEI lovin's from Attract Mode in the future.

Love Bits is Unicorn Dream Attack's ode to your heart. It's really good. If you are into chip music, definitely check that one out.

And finally, Calvin & Hellen's Bogus Journey Instruction Booklet is Calvin Wong's ridiculously funny faux instruction booklet for the game he made with Hellen Jo and Derek Yu for Game Over/Continue. It's one of my favorite items in the shop, and it's only $4! Designed, printed, folded and stapled by the loving hands of Calvin himself.
