Thank you to everyone who joined us for a mashtastic Rockage: San Jose! We had a delightful time grooving and gaming with you; you’re the reason we keep doing this every year! A few Thank-You’s:
Thanks to the South Bay Button Mashers event staff for dedicating their free time to one of the year’s best gaming events. Jake, Kitty Jane, Freddy, Andrew, Jason, and Alan “Another Funking Gamer” (who composed the “Link Sabbath” artwork!) – y'all crushed it out there.
Thanks to all our donors and VIPs who help keep Rockage alive! We
seriously couldn’t do this without you. Anyone else who wants to
contribute to Rockage and future gaming events can do so through PayPal
(southbaybuttonmashers@gmail.com, credit cards accepted).
Thanks to our indie game developers including Nascent Game, eigoMANGA,
Really Slick, Tipping Goat, Temple Gates Games, and Xi (Hypernewbie).
We’ll provide links to their games and possibly give out a couple game
codes to followers of our page in the next few days!
Thanks to
all our outstanding bands & performers! This was a terrific lineup
of chiptunes bands, local artists, and some new faces in the Rockage
milieu. I feel like we need to thank those who breakdanced during the
Super Soul Bros show, too!
And thanks to AFKgg Gamer Lounge
and its staff for supporting this event with an excellent ambience for
music and gaming. These folks made sure we were able to put on the kind
of Rockage we wanted, so they helped make the magic happen quite a bit!
Stay tuned for more news regarding upcoming gaming events. We hope to
make it out to another one soon, and we hope to play a part in keeping
Rockage going.
