Our 2013 Recap – Happy New Year!

by

Happy New Years Eve! 2013 was a big year for us for so many reasons. We hit a lot of milestones including celebrating our 10-year-anniversary as a company, releasing our third title (BattleBlock Theater), hitting our 5th year after the release of our second title (Castle Crashers), and attending several new shows in the U.S.
 
We had a lot to be thankful for and we wanted to share our favorite moments with you. That being said, this is going to be a rather lengthy post but we hope you’ll enjoy going down memory lane with us!

This past weekend, the Museum of the Moving Image opened its new Indie Essentials exhibit to the public. Our little alien friend made it over to New York and blasted its way into the list of 25 Must-Play Video Games. If you’re on the East Coast and have a chance to check out the playable exhibition, please drop by and send your Alien Hominid pictures our way!
 
EXHIBITION
Indie Essentials: 25 Must-Play Video Games
December 14, 2013–March 2, 2014
 
“IndieCade International Festival of Independent Games and Museum of the Moving Image present a playable exhibition of more than two dozen games that represent the breadth and depth of the ‘indie’ video game scene. The designers and developers of these games, individuals or small teams independent of large studios and publishers, take daring creative risks to explore new forms and methods of play. The exhibition features recent cutting-edge titles, including the IndieCade 2013 award winners, alongside a selection of games that have had great impact on game design and culture in the last decade. Independent games are a fountain of innovation and experimentation, pushing games forward as one of today’s most dynamic and important cultural forms.”
 
A huge THANK YOU to IndieCade and the Museum of Moving Image for including us in the exhibition.
