Hey, mercenaries!
We're back from Tokyo Game Show 2019 with a bunch of photos and impressions!
Last Wednesday, our team leader Ilya went to Tokyo to participate in the biggest game convention in Japan - Tokyo Game Show. Our publishers Hitcents also sent a team of their best people to support us at the show.
Last minutes of calm before the storm. We had both PC and Switch build playable at the event.
The event itself lasted four days - the first two being for press and industry people, and then opening to public on Saturday and Sunday. And while the b2b days were breezy, the weekend was a warzone - with more thank 200k people attending in total! Here's a taste:
After the doors of the venue opened on Thursday, we had a steady stream of visitors at our booth for all four days. We ended up handing out almost all the merch we brought to the event - including 500 sticker sets, 400 flyers and more.
Yes, cute exclusive stickers featuring our cast of female characters. Also pins.
But of course, nothing feels as good as seeing people engage with a game you spent hours making - and have fun with it!
Someone even made the hidden bear miniboss we had in the demo stand on its head!
Overall, it was a crazy, fun and very busy event. Huge thanks to the folks from our publisher who came all the way from US to Tokyo to help us run the booth, our volunteers, and all the friends, old and new, who supported us.
See you in the next update!
