IcePack Games Hosting TGC Designer Table at Balticon

Toren and Prax, from IcePack Games, will be hosting a Designer’s Table at Balticon (www.balticon.org) again this year. They will have a table in the Dealer’s Hall and scheduled demos on Sunday at the Game Room. Toren will be on a few panels and they will be play-testing a few new games.

Balticon has a very popular game room that is open 24 hours a day for the four days of the con. If anyone is interested in having games demoed they are willing to take copies with them. Games will also be left in the game room, with feedback forms, when they are not being shown off.

Their big box of TGC titles will be on hand for anyone who is interested in playing some of their collection.

If you happen to be around Baltimore, Maryland this Memorial Day Weekend, you should stop by and say hello to Toren and Prax of IcePack Games.

New Perk: Featured Game @ Let’s Play Green Bay

We’ve just added a new perk to our Indiegogo campaign: Game @ Let’s Play Green Bay 

We will print a copy of your game and display it at our booth at Let’s Play Green Bay which has more than 1500 gamers in attendance. We’ll also familiarize ourselves with how it’s played so we can answer basic questions about it in an effort to get you sales.  Also includes 50,000 crafter points.

If you want to get your game to a convention, but aren’t able to do it yourself, let us help you!

JT, and our Production Manager, Elizabeth, will be exhibiting at Let’s Play Green Bay April 12-14. We’ll be showcasing all of our latest printed components and game pieces. We may even show off a few that have not been announced yet. You’ll have to be there to find out!

In addition, TGC Alumni Chris Leder will be in attendance as well. They’re expecting more than 1500 people this year, so it should be a pretty amazing convention. Hope to see you there!

As a reminder, JT will be at Protospiel Milwaukee next Friday through Sunday. He’ll have with him a whole host of prototyping materials and parts samples. Several other TGC Alumni will be there as well including Chevee Dodd and Matt Worden. Hope to see you there.

Our booth at Con of the North is officially open.  Stop by and check out all our components.

JT will be exhibiting at Con of the North in Minneapolis this weekend. He’ll bring along a lot of our printed goods and parts so you can see them in person if you haven’t had an opportunity to check them out before. If you happen to be in the Minneapolis / St Paul area this weekend stop by and say ‘Hi’. 

March 9 & 10 will be the first ever Protospiel in Milwaukee. JT will be there as well as several TGC users such as Matt Worden and David Sheppard (you might know him as sheppy). If you want to get your game play tested, it would be a good place to be. Hope to see you there. 

Check for an event in your area. It’s a great way to meet other designers and vet your game design skills.
