Title: Good News Everyone! Post by: Christina on August 15, 2013, 11:29:05 am As you know, we've been teasing something big coming up for a while. It's been difficult not to talk about it with all of you, but we were sworn to silence until now. Today, we're finally able to share our excitement with you:
We are part of the Indie MEGABOOTH at PAX, and we'll have a playable demo of Dead State with us! For some of you, this may launch a rabid frenzy because you'll be at PAX too and you'll finally get your hands on Dead State. For others, it may cause gnawing disappointment because you aren't able to make it so you're wondering how you get a piece of this pie. Worry not! Dead State being at PAX and the fact that we've hauled ass to get a bunch of things done in the last couple of months means all of you will see a huge influx of news and info to feed your Dead State addiction. Some of that will probably trickle in while we prepare for PAX as well as during the event, but more of it will probably come shortly after PAX happens and we've had a breather. Thanks to all of you for being so patient this last couple of months and for just being awesome in general ;) We hope you're as excited about this as we are - getting Dead State into shape for PAX has been a pretty time-consuming and exhausting process, but we know watching our fans enjoy our demo is going to make it all worth it! Here's a link to MEGABOOTH's website so you can check out our page as well as those of other indies who will be there: Indie MEGABOOTH (http://indiemegabooth.com/) Title: Re: Good News Everyone! Post by: Caidoz on August 15, 2013, 11:35:24 am Hey cool, good job team Doublebear! :salute:
I'm unfortunately in the "gnawing disappointment" crowd, and although I would love to come up to Seattle for PAX, it seems badges are already sold out. Seattle-based folks better check out that Indie Booth and report back to everyone else! :) Title: Re: Good News Everyone! Post by: melkathi on August 15, 2013, 12:11:15 pm Great to hear that Dead State is comming along nicely.
Seattle is a bit far for me even if badges weren't sold out :) Title: Re: Good News Everyone! Post by: DrunkZombie on August 15, 2013, 12:35:31 pm Congrats DoubleBear! I can't wait for more info and hopefully some more gameplay videos.
Edit: I saw in the KS update that Oscar will be there. So I guess he is making the trip for a little working vacation. Title: Re: Good News Everyone! Post by: Torgue on August 15, 2013, 12:54:54 pm Congrats, DoubleBear! Looking forward to more info and videos and hope you woo the crowd! Considering I live in Europe, I won't be able to attend PAX, but there's no gnawing disappointment. May I ask who will be present at the booth?
P.S. New screenshots on the Indie MEGA Booth page. (http://indiemegabooth.com/project/dead-state/) Title: Re: Good News Everyone! Post by: Christina on August 15, 2013, 01:24:14 pm Myself, Brian, Annie, my husband Jake (or should I say my indentured man-slave? JUST KIDDING he's a willing volunteer), and *dramatic drum-roll* Oscar! He'll be flying in to give us a hand and we couldn't be more excited!
Yep, good eye, the first of many screenshots to come, I'm sure :D Thanks for the support, guys! Title: Re: Good News Everyone! Post by: Oscar on August 15, 2013, 02:13:59 pm Congrats DoubleBear!

It will be a very cool experience! Do you guys know any salsa clubs in Seattle? ;) Title: Re: Good News Everyone!

Title: Re: Good News Everyone! Post by: Greyman on August 15, 2013, 04:06:41 pm Very nice, guys. There's no way I'd get up there from L.A., but I hope things go well for you. And I'm glad to hear things have gotten to the "playable demo" stage (not that the combat demo didn't imply that).
Title: Re: Good News Everyone! Post by: GhanBuriGhan on August 15, 2013, 04:36:41 pm That's great, hope this will give you lots of exposure. Make sure to make lots of vids and photos for us!

Post by: Sifer2 on August 17, 2013, 06:41:38 pm Good news if there is demo then things must be coming along pretty well. I have to ask though is the plan still to go straight for release, and skip any kind of Open Beta?

Title: Re: Good News Everyone! Post by: Invalid_Target on August 17, 2013, 10:32:22 pm So jealous I live in another country and can't make it to PAX, but I've convinced a friend going to add it to his to-do list.
Will we see an update to this page sometime after PAX? http://www.deadstate.doublebearproductions.com/demo/ (http://www.deadstate.doublebearproductions.com/demo/) Title: Re: Good News Everyone! Post by: Durin on August 18, 2013, 01:45:39 pm As in this thread mentioned, there will be a playable demo at PAX.
Regarding this, as was mentioned in the FAQ and we are now closer to the release, any news on a demo for the public? Title: Re: Good News Everyone! Post by: Villfarelse on August 18, 2013, 06:30:47 pm It will be a very cool experience! Do you guys know any salsa clubs in Seattle? ;) There wouldn't be any time for clubbing, you'll be spending all your time giving the fans salsa lessons :P Title: Re: Good News Everyone!

Perhaps we should have Leif write you a special Dead State-themed salsa song? xD |
