[p]We were there for full 4 days; the vibe at the Indie Arena was super cool, though standing for 10 hours a day was kinda rough. But we got really lucky with our booth neighbors – we had each other’s backs, covered shifts, and just helped out overall.[/p][p]We didn’t really get a chance to explore much outside the Indie Arena, but honestly there was sooo much going on that I didn’t even manage to play all the indies there![/p][p][/p][p]People were playing The August Before NON-STOP. Like, the first person showed up at 9:30 AM and after that we never had a break longer than 2 minutes. Our business cards ran out halfway through the first day, so we had to reprint twice, and then we just started writing the game’s name on sticky notes and handing those out, ‘cause printing more again was just too expensive ːsteamfacepalmː[/p][p][/p][p]Oh and btw WE WON A WINGS AWARD???? (we didn't know it coming like .. AT ALL). So we would like to give additional thanks to Indie Arena Booth & WINGS for this.[/p][p][/p][p]All in all, Gamescom went amazing! Thank you all for coming, playing and saying all this kind words![/p][p]Now back to work[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
