Now that the team is back from #DHAtlanta, it is time to do a write up about the showcasing experience. Also had to write about the stats from the event along with the quite amazing tournament run.

Show me the four GAMES that influenced YOUR current game project."

These are THE games, but they're in order of how great of an influence they've had (strong to less strong).

It has been awhile since the last posting but a reminder that #ElemensionalRift is still looking for wishlists as we continue getting the arcade mode more polished to give players a deep connection with the cast.

Ticking out a lot of built up notes from conventions throughout the year. Already crossed out over 40 tasks for #ElemensionalRift . Things are getting cleared out and getting that list more manageable before the big tasks start to come up in what is in store for this year.

Let's start the year off right as I have a little time to breathe before a crunched convention year ahead hits. For those who showed up at AWA and poked around, they got to see an extra special guest appearing in #ElemensionalRift . @hmibisondollars.bsky.social 's Red McCano is guarding the Vault.

i will once again say if yall miss that stuff you should also be supporting stuff that still does it like Araiguma ( they put up a good interview the other day with one of the guys behind Jazzy Circuit )
i miss the sf4 era because the fgc content that existed was more like this. the arcade hustla youtube channel with all the chinatown fair interviews is an absolute gold mine. no one knew how to make gamer money on the computer yet and we were better for it

It's wild that we're STILL in the era of fighting games where someone 1-and-dones you & their reason is: "I wanna play someone who actually knows how to play" because you chose a style/mode they don't like or think is valid.

If the game lets me pick it, it's valid! It's not that deep, run the set~

I want 2026 to be the year where we collectively stop rewarding negativity. Stop bringing others down to bring yourself up. Stop bringing attention to genuinely awful people. Stop ignoring people bringing positive changes to the world. We need more kindness and empathy. I’m dead serious

Keeping a much steadier pace for the #ElemensionalRift booth at #AWA2025 . Word seems to be getting around of how to find us and the battles will continue to get fierce!

First person to beat the #ElemensionalRift Sculpt the Statue minigame (after being in the game and doing conventions for 7 months with it available). A big deserved win!

Did a bit of a booth redesign and now the #ElemensionalRift feels a bit more complete and ready to showcase at #AWA

adios, one of the greatest games ever made, perhaps of all time, solely for a dialogue choice where you can describe shoveling manure, is on sale for 45% off, the lowest it will ever go!!!

It's less than the cost of a meal at arby's!

If you're not happy with the direction the big publishers are going with fighting games, maybe try out some indie games!

Frankly, the FGC could do a lot more to support games by small teams, so I'm going to put out some recommendations. 🧵
