The past week was probably the toughest for the entire team. Not only was our flight out of Boston canceled, we were also stuck in the midst of blizzard Stella and attacked by a flurry of vicious mini ice cubes without any proper winter gear. Oh, Stella…

However, after waiting in the airport for almost one whole day, the kind folks at Southwest Airlines managed to get us on another flight and these three musketeers finally landed in Austin just in time before SXSW Gaming began! It was our first time in Austin and we were immediately taken by how quirky and lively this city is. Musicians were performing in every corner and just strolling down the streets of Downtown Austin enveloped us with a sense of creative energy that is uniquely Austin.

As soon as our booth opened, we were swarmed by curious strangers who were first attracted by the beautiful art work printed on the t-shirts. We put a lot of heart into this art work and have prepared a few items bearing the same design especially for this trip. We’re so glad that people appreciated the work that went into it.

As we have mentioned in an earlier update, Legrand Legacy was picked as a contestant in the SXSW Gaming Pitch Competition. Uwil & AJ spent days preparing for the presentation and we managed to get into the final 8! Competition was definitely fierce as all teams brought their A-game, but all in all, we learned how to further sharpen our pitch from the mentors and fellow finalists. Congratulations to Tessera Studios and Swap Bots for winning the Pitch Competition!

Post PAX East 2017 Thoughts

There is no better way to describe it, PAX East was FUN and memorable. The energy was undeniably infectious and we met with a lot of RPG fans who were excited to see such a beautiful and classic yet modern looking game. We also met with a few Kickstarter backers, whom we hope are reading this update.

In this light-hearted video, we take you along on our journey across the USA, beginning with our scenic bus ride from NYC to Boston, all the way to the show floors at PAX East. Watch what other players think about Legrand Legacy and why Uwil refuses to have his shirt shown on camera.

Thank you all for reading this update. Next week we will be reporting back from our studio as we prepare to release the Alpha demo for our backers. Stay tuned!
