You should go to @indiecitygames.org CIGS. In fact I think you should consider getting a VIP pass if it’s in your budget so you can go to the talks. I am not saying this for any particular reason! Definitely nothing to do with anything unannounced! Use coupon code dumpsterdiver for 15% off 💚

We're only TEN DOLLARS away from our $20,000 stretch goal of a community arcade cabinet... if you feel like grabbing a pass for CIGS at $25 (the cheapest it'll be available) and pushing us over the edge we will whisper your name to the city's rat council, that you might be honored. #indiedev

We're barely past day 2 and only 5 bucks away from hitting 85% of our goal, sending this into the streets in the hope of someone wants to throw five dollars at a bunch of crusty indie devs (less than a coffee or cheese of middling quality) www.kickstarter.com/projects/ind... #indiedev #chicago
