Midwest Classic Gaming pictures?

Post by Tursi »

Okay, I can't wait any longer. ;) Maybe I've missed it, there are a lot of posts here, but Binky and I are dying to hear any news of how the Midwest Classic Gaming expo went, and seeing any pics of the Goat Store booth (and maybe Cool Herders ;) ). I've done web searches, and only turned up two collections of pics, neither of which was interested in the Dreamcast stuff.

Anybody have any links to photos?

I was too dumb to bring a camera. :?

It was neat though. Your game was set up right between the four Feet of Fury monitors and DCastle if I remember correctly. :)

There actually were a lot of people coming up to my table asking if Cool Herders was going to be commercially released, as they had to have it. :)

I apologize for not getting information out earlier, but I've been working on getting the final builds of Inhabitants and Maqiupai actually into the point of production again... Soon...

Anywho, I have a few pictures for everyone:

Image
About 1/3rd of the Dreamcast display. You can see Feet of Fury, DCASTLE and Cool Herders in this picture.

Image
S+F Software with Inhabitants directly behind them to the left and Maqiupai behind them to the right.

Image
Brandon with one of the "mock" Inhabitants cases we got in time for the show. You can see the Inhabitants + Maqiupai posters better in this image.

Image
Cool Herders ready to go (on my personal 'Cast) before anyone got there.

Image
DCASTLE ready and menacing.

The general comments on all of the games were very positive. I didn't have too much of a chance to talk with people, but of the three games we had on display for one of the first times ever (and I still need to find our picture of Boll...) Cool Herders and DCASTLE were what most people were the most interested in immediately (which makes sense because Boll has no one player mode yet...)

Everyone enjoyed Feet of Fury, Inhabitants and Maqiupai, and everyone seemed to be very happy with the production quality on each of them. S+F Software even did a speech regarding Inhabitants at the show that was really excellent.

Overall, I felt the Dreamcast showing was extremely positive, and I know that a LOT of people were very interested in following the progress of the games.

Thanks, Dan. That should be enough to keep Binky and I quiet for a bit. ;)

Gah - I just found this thread. Oh, well. Looks like I was fortunate enough to get the back of my head in that one picture. :lol:

If anyone is still interested, I have several more photos Brandon took when we went to the Midwest Classic. Sorry for the delay in this reply, chaps.
