    While we would love to open this to everyone as we did with game night two years ago, we want to focus on safety and comfort for students.

    Heroic Games right? I've seen your booth on the floor a few times in the past. It was down the way from a friend's booth with Lonestar Games and The Bandcast. The funny thing is I've known SAY So since their old studio back when it was still apart of the Blue Star complex back in '05. What's the scoop on discussions for your event?

    Yeah, we exhibited the past two years for Heroes Must Die! No new games this year but we have our panel on San Antonio game scene Saturday at 7. And if you know any teens or parents send them to our SAY Si event! We couldn't get a booth this year to show the games from our studio (the New Media and Game Design studio, the HIVE, which is only a couple years old) so we are hosting a board game night and showing off their work there, while also inviting teens fromt he community and around the world to come have fun and check out our space.

    The HIVE, is that a personal project? Has a nice ring to it. Looking forward to that Saturday panel. I've worked with publishers and studios up and down the PNW throughout my career. It's nice to hear about the expansion of game development in SA, especially since it's my hometown. I'll forward the event info rn to my circle with an emphasis on teen/student audiences. Sry to hear you couldn't aquire a booth this year. Hope it wasn't a lack of communication on our end. I coordinate with ReedPOP (events hosting) during our PAX seasons. If you need any assistance or info during the expo feel free to chime in any time between Wed, 10th - Sun, 14th.
