Year-end Roundup 1: Fantastic Arcade
Finji hasn’t technically been around for quite one year yet, but we had a pretty busy last few months and I wanted to start documenting some of what we’ve been up to and why as we approach the holidays. I’ll be doing a new post here every day until I run out of news or stories in a week or two. I wanted to start the roundup with a quick overview of Fantastic Arcade, our local Austin game festival that Juegos Rancheros puts on in partnership with the Alamo Drafthouse and Fantastic Fest every September. Arcade is a funny event. I’m not sure that any one thing we do there is strictly useful or professional, and I’m not 100% sure what the takeaways are or what the educational value is. And yet, for many indie game makers it is their favorite event of the year. Whether that’s the bespoke upright arcade cabinets full of strange new games, the competitive tournaments we hold in the movie theaters, the creative panels, the special guests, the game jam, or some other thing, I’m not sure. But this was our biggest year yet, and our plans for next year are even better. The video above features Austin’s own George Royer interviewing some hairy guy, and we have a bunch more videos from the show right here.

canabalt 20 is available now on the itunes app
Canabalt 2.0 is available now on the iTunes App Store as a free update! 8 new game modes, local multiplayer, achievements, new leaderboards, all sorts of good stuff! We’ve been working on it on and off since 2012, I hope you all dig it :) You may have also noticed that Canabalt is on sale for $0.99 until this Sunday, for I think the second time ever, so if you did want to spread the word, now would be a good time!
Also massive thanks to Rusty Moyher for coding up the vast majority of the changes, fixes and improvements. You might know his work from Retro Game Crunch or Box Cat - he’s the best!
Finally, for a very limited time, we have official Canabalt t-shirts courtesy Cotton Bureau - you can get a shirt with running business lady or running business dude in both men’s and women’s sizes for the next 2 weeks or so!
