It was only a few weeks ago that Thomas D. and Raymond went to PC Gamer Weekender in London, but Crimson Owl Studios is again sending a delegation to London. This time we're showing Caromble! at EGX Rezzed. This is probably one of the biggest Game Event where we will be showcasing Caromble!, so it's very exciting for us! We will be represented by our heroes Thomas D. (again!) and Frank, our marketing and PR guru. They seem very ready here at the airport don't they:
You can find them on EGX Rezzed at The Leftfield Collection. As you can see on the site, we are in good company. There a lot of good games to check out!
This will be the first event of Frank where he can work his PR magic. We expect a lot from him :) Send him your best through the comments! This will help his, as we call it in the Netehrlands, baptism of fire (vuurdoop).
Meanwhile, on our kitchen tables in the Netherlands, we are working hard on the final touches on Chapter 4 levels. Also, we are working on the experience of the Prologue level. Good stuff.
Thanks for reading and... Let's get ready to Caromble!
