Now, it’s full steam ahead as we prepare for two exciting events:

• Pixel Heaven 2016: Join me from June 3–5 in Warsaw, Poland, at the Pixel Heaven Forward Games & Pop Culture Festival. This event celebrates indie games, retro vibes, and creative innovation;
• Animatsuri 2016: From July 29–31, I will be at EXPO XXI in Warsaw for Animatsuri, Poland’s premier festival of Japanese pop culture, anime, and gaming.

I am hard at work refining Counters for these showcases, incorporating your feedback to enhance gameplay and polish! Stay tuned for updates and sneak peeks as we get closer to these events!​
