Ogilvie Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 It appears general discussion of fangames as much as showcasing is also allowed here; please correct me if I am wrong. Here it goes! Just a few days ago, I announced that a two day Sonic convention is planned to take place in Las Vegas, Nevada next Summer. How is this relevant to fangames? Well, I have a proposal for all the enterprising ladies and gentlemen who work on all the various fangames around the world. Quite simply... there would be quite a few tables and booths in the venue. I am thus proposing the creation of a fangame area. Now, how it would be executed... I'm not exactly sure. Perhaps several fangames could be put on a disc and played from one computer? Perhaps there would be multiple computers, each with their own fangame. The exact details would naturally be worked out closer to the date. With regards to attendance... if you could find someone to represent the fan game community on the floor, I'd highly suggest they oversee said table. That's if you can't attend personally, of course! All fangames would naturally be subject to review, but I welcome the idea of a fan game area. It would allow exposure for the games as well as add another great activity to the convention. I'm probably getting ahead of myself but... with the right amount of planning and content... perhaps it could be a physical SAGE Expo, even? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogilvie Posted July 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Suppose I may as well update this... Due to not being sure if the funding's there just yet, and also not wanting to keep hopping between dates, this event has been cancelled for 2015. My apologies! All tickets purchased have been refunded... I still have plans for a Sonic con at some point in the future, but I want to be sure everything will be in place. I also am hoping that many fan games can get the attention they deserve on the floor of a fan event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSF Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Better safe than sorry, at least you didn't end up giving one extra hour in the ball pit as an apology. I still can't believe how utterly ridiculous that 'Dashcon' was. It's still hilarious There's always a next time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverbounD Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 It would be neat to go to a convention and show off games but there is no way I could afford it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
